Chapter VIII Buying a House
safely picked up the backpack, took the room card, and killed Quanjude in one go; Fortunately, this time is not a meal, there are not many people at 3 o'clock in the afternoon, and there is no need to wait in line for a seat;
An Ran sat down and picked up the menu and ordered half a roast duck, wrapped duck skin with sweet sauce and shredded duck skin and green onions and cucumbers, stewed the duck bone rack into a milky white soup, ordered a pine nut corn, a fried ground three fresh, a fried duck heart, and a snowflake duck soufflé to take away, as a night supper.

After a large meal of chopping, An Ran felt completely satisfied with his greedy stomach, and sighed, "It's so cool!" ”
After checking out, pick up the packing box on the table and walk on Qianmen Street leisurely, this street was built in the Jiajing period of the Ming Dynasty, it is the imperial road for the emperor to go out of the city to the Temple of Heaven, the mountain and river altar, the main north and south streets after the construction of the outer city, the Ming and Qing dynasties are called "Zhengyangmen Street" in 1968 officially named "Qianmen Street".
An Ran looked at this famous commercial street, with a variety of shops and many century-old shops. There is a sense of vicissitudes of history here, I bought some gadgets for most of the day, and I went back to the hotel to wash up and fell asleep, and I had no dreams all night.
On the second day of coming to City B, Enron planned to visit the tourist attractions of City B, as a former tourism professional, Enron did not join the tour group, but chose to travel independently;
I used to come to City B in 09, and my cousin worked in City B that year, and the two visited many large and small attractions in City B together; Including the Forbidden City, Tiananmen Square, Xiangshan Park, Bird's Nest, Water Cube and other attractions.
At that time, when I came to City B, it was winter, and I happened to catch the first heavy snow in City B, and the Great Wall was not completed, which became a big regret for the last time I traveled to City B!
So An Ran felt that he would go to the Great Wall once this time, although he had heard from his fellow travelers who had come to the Great Wall before, "If you don't go to the Great Wall, you are not a hero, and after you go, you will sigh that you are stupid." "But if you come here and don't climb the Great Wall, you're the biggest fool.
In July, the weather in City B was still very hot, and I still resolutely climbed to the middle of the Badaling Great Wall, looking at this ancient building that was a defensive war, and it brought together the blood, sweat and wisdom of tens of millions of working people; It has become a great wonder of the world, and it stands like a giant dragon among the mountains.
Standing here, An Ran felt deeply shocked and impressed by the industrious wisdom of the working people.
During the summer vacation in July, all scenic spots are crowded with people, and everywhere they go is crowded. Enron walked around City B for two days, but it was really too hot, and I didn't want to go to those crowded attractions anymore and be stepped on.
Thinking about what I can do, there is still more than a month to leave school, how to spend such a long time? It's too boring to stay in a hotel every day. I've always heard that the alleys and old courtyards in City B are very interesting and famous, and these courtyards can't be bought with money after 2010. The people who live in the courtyard are those who have money, power, and status, and the people of the old B city say: "The courtyard houses of the old B city are the most down-to-earth... ”
An Ran had admired and longed for the old courtyard houses in City B for a long time, so he planned to go and see the old courtyard houses that would be expensive in the future.
"Where to go to the courtyard? It seems that there are a lot of these courtyard houses on Qianmen Street, but it seems that the courtyard house Houhai is more and larger, although I heard that the government later renovated and demolished some, but later there were still a large number left; Or go to Houhai! Enron thought.
I took a taxi to Houhai, saw the criss-crossing alleys and pieces of courtyard houses, where I can deeply feel the old courtyard culture of City B, I heard that there is the former residence of Song Qingling, An Ran then stopped a tricycle, this tricycle is still very novel for An Ran, who has been living in the south since childhood; I heard the tricycle master say that these tricycles are all evolved from the previous rickshaws...
When I arrived at the door of Song Qingling's former residence, I saw seven steps up, four diamond-shaped hairpins, and stepped into the door, and I saw the traditional shadow wall of the old courtyard house in City B, a snow-white wall, a wooden fence outside, a long string of gourds hanging on both sides, and a big blessing word on the wall, and my eyes were full of joy.
The front door of the word "Fu" is placed in a water tank, which is planted with lotus flowers that symbolize the reunion of the family, and there are many flowers and plants planted around the large tank, which adds a few points to the originally beautiful shadow wall, and the hanging flower door of the outer courtyard is bypassed by the shadow wall, and walks through the verandah, looking at the inner courtyard of this courtyard, the courtyard of the southeast, northwest, and northwest houses, without any gorgeous appearance, nor any deliberate decoration, everything is so natural and casual.
An Ran took a turn in the courtyard and became more and more fond of the old courtyard house in City B. I thought, "If only I could have such a set of courtyard houses in City B, which may not be bought if you have money in the back." Needless to say, I bought such a set of courtyard houses in the back appreciation space, and it is comfortable to live by myself! The idea of buying a set of courtyard houses to invest in is really good, anyway, there is money in the card, and when there is nothing to do, you can see if there are any courtyard houses for sale in the vicinity. ”
Just do it in the next week, and An Ran will drill into the old alley of Houhai every day if he has nothing to do, not to mention that it really makes An Ran meet a good thing. This unease just came out of the neighborhood committee and those neighborhood committee aunts ridiculed.
Why did Enron go to the neighborhood committee? In this way, from An Ran's plan to buy a courtyard house a week ago, An Ran decided to buy a courtyard house, so he found an intermediary company to inquire, and the intermediary company was all human spirits. It's all safe and whimsical, you can buy this courtyard house with a yellow-haired girl, do you know how much it costs?
Enron returned from the intermediary company, and there was no choice but to rely on himself. So thinking about it, the aunt of the neighborhood committee doesn't know everything around her! So if you have nothing to do, you will run to the neighborhood committee in Houhai. After running for a few days, I was tired to death, and the aunts of the neighborhood committee didn't give Enron any reliable news.
I ran away in vain in the morning, and there was still no news, so I was a little disheartened and saw two old men sitting under a tree playing chess at the mouth of the alley. An Ran stood on the side and watched a few handfuls, and listened to one of the old men chatting and said, "Erdao Hutong, the old Liu Tou plans to sell the courtyard house at home, saying that the old Liu Tou's son immigrated to Australia a few years ago, and this time he plans to take the old Liu Tou to Australia to settle down and retire; Lao Liu Tou is ready to sell the old courtyard house and contribute some money for his son's new house in Australia. ”
An Ran thought that there was nowhere to find it when he stepped on the iron shoes.
