Seeing that Wu Laosan's face was not good-looking, Xiaoyu asked him what was wrong, but he refused to say more, just waved his hand and said that it was okay, but he put away his face.
Chen Ran and Xiaoyu were both a little strange, but they couldn't say anything if he didn't say anything, so they could only take him to see the house together.
Wu Laosan didn't drive his own car, and sat directly in Chen Ran's car.
When the Mercedes drove into the alley, I saw a patchwork of courtyard houses, but most of these outer courtyard houses were converted into hotels, guesthouses, restaurants, clubs, and some characteristic shops, etc., until they passed through the metal gate with a security booth.
And when you get here, you will also enter the folk protection area of the capital.
There are alleys and alleys everywhere, blue bricks and yellow tiles, the upper stones at the entrance of the house, and the bright green moss in the cracks in the alleys, revealing a sense of the vicissitudes of time everywhere, but it seems that the capital is full of charm.
At the security office, Chen Ran asked him about the location of the courtyard, so after entering the reserve, he drove into an alley in the direction guided by the guards.
When you enter this area, it is a non-tourist area, and obviously, everyone who can live here is either rich or expensive.
The courtyard house given to Chen Ran by the second child is not the largest set here, but no matter how big it is, it belongs to the state, although many of them are lent to others for use, but the real estate still belongs to the state.
And Chen Ran's courtyard house was changed to his name when the second child gave it to him, as for this set of courtyard houses, how did the second family get it, there seems to be a story in it.
……
And speaking of which, I have to talk about the gifts that my brother gave him.
He Zhenhua gave him a villa in the Dianshan Lake villa area. As the big brother of several people, He Zhenhua's shot is naturally extraordinary.
This villa only covers an area of more than 5,000 square meters, obviously, this can no longer be said to be a villa, it should be said to be a manor.
His villa in Tianzhong City occupies a large enough area, but it is not half the size of this villa, and the difference in housing prices between the two places goes without saying.
Although Chen Ran doesn't know what the price of the villa in Dianshan Lake is, he can guess that the house price here is absolutely sky-high when he looks at the renderings of the environment and the construction of the house.
And such a villa that can almost be regarded as a manor will cost at least more than 200 million.
Then there is this set of courtyard houses given to him by the second child, which is not the largest in the courtyard in the capital, but it is definitely not small, covering an area of more than 1,000 square meters.
Chen Ran doesn't know much about Beijing's courtyard houses, but he also knows that the real courtyard houses in Beijing can't be bought even if he wants to, even if the smallest one is 200 square meters, it is about to be tens of millions.
Then this set of more than 1,000 square meters has to be tens of millions larger, and the key is that you can't buy it if you want to.
Then there is the yacht sent by the third Rong Mingyang, and the seventh is a private jet, Chen Ran doesn't know much about the prices of these two, but he knows that those who can afford these two are well-known rich people.
Even similar yachts and private jets cost tens of millions, and the third and seventh gave him only about the same.
Then there were the fifth and sixth children, each of whom gave a pair of calligraphy and paintings, and the other gave a vase.
If you think that the gifts given by the two of them are not of high value, then you are obviously very wrong.
The calligraphy and painting sent by the first five is Qiu Ying's "Willow Pond Fishing Boat", this painting may be rarely heard of, and even Qiu Ying, the author, who is outside the circle, knows not much, but everyone in the circle knows it.
Qiu Ying is one of the representative painters of the Ming Dynasty, and together with Shen Zhou, Wen Zhengming and Tang Yin, he was called the "Four Masters of the Ming Dynasty" and "The Four Masters of Wumen", also known as the "Four Masters of Tianmen".
Qiu Ying is the leader of the Wumen painting school in the middle of the Ming Dynasty in China, at present, the domestic museum collection of Qiu Ying's works is only 5o, and the works of the diaspora are even rarer.
For example, Beijing Hanhai held a spring auction at the Kerry Center Hotel in Beijing in 2O1O, and Qiu Ying's "Floating Mountains and Warm Cui" was sold for 7.28 million yuan.
As Qiu Ying's green landscape treasures, this is circulated in an orderly manner, the description is clear, and it is collected from overseas and returned to China, and it has attracted the attention of the Tibetan community as soon as it appears.
At the auction site, Qiu Ying's "Floating Mountains and Warm Cui" started at 25oo yuan, and after several rounds of high price increases of millions of steps, it quickly rose to 5ooo yuan, and the competition at this time was mainly concentrated in the two or three collectors in the field, the price was tight, and they did not give in to each other, and the eyes of the audience also moved back and forth with the collector's sign, and finally after dozens of rounds of bidding, Qiu Ying's "Floating Mountains and Warm Cui" settled at 7.28o million yuan.
In addition, in the spring auction of Hong Kong Changfeng 2oo9, Qiu Ying's "Wen Ji Returns to the Han Long Scroll" was sold at 112 million. This work is in the collection of Mr. C. C. Wang, a famous collector in the United States, and is a rare masterpiece among Qiu Ying's works in today's folk collection. After fierce bidding, it was finally acquired by a strong collector in Hong Kong.
In 2oo7, China Guardian's "Red Cliff Map" was even more known as a national treasure, and it was estimated that it was only 10 million yuan before the auction, but someone bid 50 million yuan before the auction began, and finally the painting was sold off by a mysterious buyer for nearly 80 million.
According to industry insiders, if Qiu Ying's "Red Cliff Map" volume is auctioned again, the estimated price will be 100 million, and the final transaction price may reach 1.5 billion yuan.
This shows how valuable Qiu Ying's true works are.
The vase that the sixth child gave to Chen Ran is a piece of Ru porcelain, the value of Ru porcelain is needless to say, and Chen Ran still has a few pieces of Ru porcelain in his hand.
China is famous for its ceramic craftsmanship since ancient times, the original meaning in English is porcelain, so foreign countries, and even the world's understanding of China is porcelain, and China's porcelain is based on the Ru porcelain of the Song Dynasty, and Ruguan porcelain is only 20 years of short time, because it is a royal article, not to spread the folk, and because it is glazed with agate, and because it is colorful in a specific light, bright as a star, it is considered that the masculinity is too strong, and the emperor and the prince do not dare to use it to accompany the burial, so there are very few ancient tombs excavated, which makes it a rarity.
Up to now, there are less than 70 pieces of Ru porcelain in the world, even if it is a fragment, it can be worth an unimaginable amount of wealth, so there is a saying that "even if there is a family wealth, it is better to have a piece of Ru porcelain!" ”
The calligraphy and paintings sent by the fifth and the vase sent by the sixth have not been auctioned, so it is difficult to estimate, but imagine that if it is auctioned, it will definitely be auctioned at a sky-high price, and the price of such a precious object is secondary, the key is that it is hard to find.
In the past, due to various reasons, these things have fallen to the people, and then many people have taken it out and auctioned it, and most of the buyers who bought it are rich people, as long as there is no economic crisis in their hands, they will obviously not take it out and sell it, so that in the future, these valuable treasures will only circulate less and less in the market, and the opportunities to collect will naturally become less and less.
Whether it is in terms of its collection value or the relationship with the fifth and sixth children, Chen Ran must collect these two treasures well.
Let's not talk about the gifts given by the fourth brother for the time being, just say that the total number of gifts given by this brother is obviously hundreds of millions.
And the gift given by the fourth child is even more out of Chen Ran's imagination, because the fourth child gave a mine, to be precise, a diamond mine.
In the later drinking, Chen Ran also learned about the situation of the fourth child from the brothers, the fourth seemed to have committed an accident in his early years, and then fled abroad with the help of the brothers, and then the brother simply ran to Africa to mix, it is said that he mixed well, just think about it, and send a diamond mine casually, can it not be mixed?
As for why he wanted to give Chen Ran a diamond mine, it was because the other party heard from He Zhenhua that Chen Ran was going to open a jewelry store, so he thought about giving Chen Ran a diamond mine.
After understanding the value of the gifts given by his brothers, although Chen Ran had already said that he would accept them, he couldn't help but be a little embarrassed, after all, these gifts were too expensive.
But soon He Zhenhua dispelled his doubts.
First, He Zhenhua told him that the gifts he gave him were actually not out of his own pockets, and that the villa was opened by He Zhenhua in partnership with another real estate developer.
Of course, He Zhenhua mainly occupies a name.
The villa areas in Beijing are all planned, and those who want to eat this cake need to say, not to mention those who have no identity background, even those with identity background can hit their heads and break their blood.
The tree is good for the shade, He Zhenhua's big tree naturally has many people begging for the door, the real estate dealer is the junior of an old subordinate of He Zhenhua's grandfather, and he asked for his door, and He Zhenhua also helped.
These real estate developers generally leave a part of it to sell or give away to some related households after opening a place.
And that villa was given to He Zhenhua and asked He Zhenhua to give it away.
As for the courtyard house sent by the second child, according to He Zhenhua, there is not much in the second child's house, but there are many courtyards.
It is said that it is an elder of the second child, it seems to be an uncle, who was a cultural businessman in the early years, because at that time many former residences of celebrities were demolished by the merchants, and his uncle felt very sad when he saw it, and called on many people to stop this at that time, but no one listened to them at all, and finally his uncle took out all the family property and bought a courtyard house in a fit of anger.
At that time, there were at least twenty or thirty sets of courtyard houses of all sizes bought by his uncle, but most of them were returned to the state after the establishment of the folk protection area, and some were given to relatives and friends or lent to some units, but these loaned courtyards were still the property of the second child's family.
According to He Zhenhua, the yacht sent by the third child and the private jet sent by the seventh child were all made in the subordinate factory of the seventh grandfather's house, according to He Zhenhua, that is, there is no need for the seventh to pay out of his own pocket.
As for the third child, it is a yacht that is exchanged for other things from the seventh child.
The two antiques sent by the fifth and sixth children were also taken out of home, so naturally they didn't have to pay out of pocket, not to mention the fourth.
He Zhenhua also told Chen Ran, don't look at so many gifts, in fact, the only ones he can get his hands on immediately are the second courtyard, the fifth and sixth calligraphy, paintings and porcelain vases.
The villa given by He Zhenhua himself has just been built now, and it will take at least a few months to live in it, and the yachts and private jets sent by the third and seventh children have just been booked, and it will naturally take a while for Chen Ran to get them.
The fourth diamond mine is in Africa, Chen Ran wants to take it by himself.
So there are so many gifts, only this courtyard and two antiques are ready-made, and the others are beyond sight.
This also happened to make Chen Ran accept it with peace of mind, and when he got the real thing, he and his brothers were familiar with each other, and naturally there was no psychological barrier at that time.
……
Parking the car on the side of the road, Chen Ran, Xiaoyu and Wu Laosan got out of the car and stood in front of the gate of a courtyard house.
The courtyard is a large house, the door is carved and painted, it is very majestic and magnificent, and the two stone lions at the door are even more powerful and abnormal.
"Let's go in and have a look."
After looking at it, Chen Ran took out the key and said to Xiaoyu.
Xiao Yu nodded, and then Chen Ran opened the door.
The gate of the courtyard is also a solid wooden gate, and the vermilion door paint on the door is simple and luxurious.
Entering the compound, you will see that the neat blue-gray tile house is newly decorated, the carved beams and painted columns are magnificent, and then you turn the magnificent shadow wall...... I entered the front yard of the quadrangle.
The courtyard houses in this area are not far from the imperial city and the Guozijian, so they used to be the residences of dignitaries, and almost every courtyard was a courtyard with several entrances and exits.
There are a few peach trees planted in the front yard, flowers and plants around it, and goldfish in the ponds on both sides.
As you can see, the yard is often cleaned and tidy.
The second child told Chen Ran that it was contracted to a professional housekeeping company, and the other party would send professionals to clean and repair it every month.
And this courtyard house was only renovated last year, but there was no big move, but the retro construction team was invited to renovate and install some modern facilities, and these modern facilities are also very hidden, which did not affect the effect of the house at all.
Chen Ran and Xiaoyu first looked at the front yard, and then looked at the middle courtyard, the middle courtyard was the largest, and they also brought a large garden, but the backyard didn't go to see it, because the backyard was all miscellaneous houses, and there were two small courtyard houses on the east and west sides.
After reading it, Chen Ran felt very good, especially the overall decoration effect of the courtyard was very suitable for his taste.
It is said that such a set of yard decoration is extremely luxurious, which is in line with its identity, but Chen Ran doesn't like this very much, because it always makes him feel that he is not in his own home.
The decoration of this courtyard in front of me is very simple, of course, simplicity is not simple, to be precise, it should be a little less luxurious, more crisp and neat, that feeling is as if there is a feeling of brightness and fairness in this courtyard.
And most importantly, the smell of home is very strong.
After shopping, Xiaoyu obviously liked it too, especially when she and Chen Ran held hands and walked together, she felt like she had settled here.
When Chen Ran and Xiaoyu were strolling, Wu Laosan also followed behind, but he kept his head stuffed and didn't speak.
And after they came out after shopping, Chen Ran and Xiaoyu also showed that Wu Laosan, who had put away his face, looked bad again.
But this time, Xiaoyu seemed to have guessed what was going on with him, so she didn't ask him what was wrong.
It's very strange for Chen Ran.
He naturally didn't know that Wu Laosan was stimulated.
He felt that his courtyard house was worth at least tens of millions, and his estimate of the value was obviously wrong, such a large courtyard house was naturally only worth tens of millions in other places, but where was his courtyard?
He apparently did not take into account the impact of the location of the courtyard on the value of the house.
And Wu Laosan undoubtedly knows no better, Chen Ran's courtyard house is worth 100 million yuan in his opinion, which is less.
Back in the capital, Wu Laosan only bought a villa of more than 20 million yuan to live in, and he originally lived in that villa, but people are afraid of comparison, and comparing his villa of more than 20 million yuan with Chen Ran's courtyard, it will undoubtedly be ...... Especially when he was in a bad mood just now, he was troubled by money, and he finally ......
Chen Ran naturally didn't know the reason for this.
Coming out of the courtyard, Xiaoyu said that he would take him to eat Quanjude roast duck in Beijing, he naturally had no opinion, and Wu Laosan also nodded.
After arriving in Quanjude and eating and drinking, Wu Laosan hesitated and hesitated, and finally said his intention to find Chen Ran.
