"As the old saying goes, 'Beiping's famous alleys are three thousand and six, and the nameless alleys are bullish', sir, you have found the right person today, and I may not be able to do anything else, but if you talk about buying a house, renting a house, and looking at the house, hey, my old Wu is silent, and the nearby Lafang Fiber does not dare to speak."

Along the way, Wu Youde boasted all kinds of things, yesterday he had a palace, and tomorrow he was going to see the apartment again, anyway, the central idea was one, that is, it was lucky to meet him today.

But this is also quite interesting, it can be regarded as a free tour guide, and he has popularized a handful of Hutong knowledge.

"The alley of our old Beiping City is good, you don't need to go in and read the name, you will know what it is like."

Even if there are muddy roads under his feet, he can't stop Wu Youde's mouth: "What kind of Tu'er Hutong, Shazikou, Brick Factory Hutong and the like are many people who work, as for the big and small Fangjia Hutong and Yaojiajing Hutong, it must be the surname Fang and the surname Yao." ”

Jumping over a puddle, Wu Youde turned around and asked, "By the way, sir, what kind of house are you going to rent?" ”

"Rent a middle school courtyard, near Peking University, and you can live in that kind directly after signing the contract." Cheng Nuo pondered for a moment and said the request in his heart.

Before he came, he had also done research and knew that there were small, medium and large courtyards.

The small courtyard generally only has three rooms in the north, two or three rooms in the east and west wings, and two or three rooms in the south room, and the main courtyard is the door.

The middle courtyard courtyard has one or two more courtyards on the basis of small, and at the same time added some basic decorative buildings such as the moon gate, Taihu Lake stone, and fish tank, which in a sense no longer belong to the level of the courtyard and have reached the height of "house".

Cheng Nuo is not a person who likes to move, and he directly chose the middle courtyard house to do it in one step, so as not to toss it again if there are more students in the back.

As for the large courtyards, most of them are palaces or private residences of giant merchants, and there are often high-end garden decorations such as gardens, ponds, and rockeries, and Cheng Nuo didn't even think about it.

If you don't struggle and fall into enjoyment, it's hard to achieve great things.

When Wu Youde heard this, he was secretly happy in his heart, this is a big customer, according to the industry rules, it is estimated that he will get a lot of money, in addition to paying back the tea money, he can also go to Baishun Hutong to live happily for a few days.

So he became more enthusiastic, and led the way in front and said: "Master, you see, I will definitely find you a beautiful house." ”

As the original words said, Cheng Nuo found several houses in good condition, which made him have difficulty in choosing again.

Until the end, Wu Youde found a house in the silk alley, and Cheng Nuo's eyes lit up as soon as he opened the door.

Enter the door is a beautiful shadow wall, the left moon door is neatly decorated, through the back is the front yard, the south five east and west three rooms, the courtyard is planted in the middle of an old ginkgo tree, the left and right verandahs can lead to the backyard, in addition to the backyard has a cover room and the east and west wings, there is actually an old ginkgo tree echoing each other.

Ten years of trees, 100 years of people.

If nothing else, it was just two old ginkgo trees, and Cheng Nuo was moved.

I wanted to pay as much as I wanted, according to the market price, but when I saw that the owner was a foreign missionary, I changed my mind.

Quietly pulled Wu You aside, Cheng Nuo whispered: "Brother Wu, I have a fancy for this house, if you help me win it in a while, in addition to the commission, I will pay you a tip, don't you think?" ”

Wu Youde's eyes lit up, and he said that he still had to let out the money he took for nothing, patted his chest and promised again and again: "Sir, look at it, wrap it on me." ”

Wiping his face, Wu Laosan directly tilted his neck, shook his head, pouted his mouth, and walked in front of the landlord in a figure-of-eight step: "How much is the rent of your house?" ”

The owner of the house was a little frightened, and his fingers just stretched out three and immediately changed to two, and the Chinese, who was not proficient, also stumbled: "Two...... Twenty oceans a month. ”

"Twenty oceans, why don't you grab it?" Wu Youde's face immediately changed, and his eyes were as wide as copper bells: "Look at your house, the whole thing is a knife, there are three rooms in the west wing, and there are three rooms in the east wing. What's the matter, let me be right, did you die yesterday? ”

Although the house is weak, it is still a little tougher when it comes to the ghost house: "There is no dead person, but a sparrow dies." ”

"What, a dead sparrow?" Wu Youde didn't give up, pointed to the sky and stomped his feet and said: "That also counts, don't you foreigners talk about equality in front of God, and the sparrow is also a fate, so it should be a dead person, anyway, your house is not good, have you found several tenants, isn't this not rented out yet?" ”

After that, Wu Youde took retreat as advance, pretending to be pulling Cheng Nuo to leave.

"It's cheaper, if it doesn't work, I'll take the guests away, and there will be no more shops in this village."

In desperation, the foreign missionary agreed to lease it to Cheng Nuo for a price of fifteen yuan a month, and the lease period was two years, with a clause in the middle of the lease to be renewed first, and so on.

After signing the contract, the foreign missionary gritted his teeth and looked at Wu Youde: "You are so hateful, God will let you go to hell." ”

Wu Youde, who got the commission and tips, was happy, who cares about this, put the ocean blowing in his ears, and said nonsense: "What, wake up with a big nose, we have God on our side, and your God can't control this." ”

Leaving the two at the door to continue arguing, Cheng Nuo locked the door and walked away.

There is still a sick number at home, how can I have time to watch these two living treasures quarrel.

On the way back, Cheng Nuo happened to see a bookstall selling magazines, and shouted vigorously: "Come and buy, Mr. Hu Shizhi's "Discussion on Literary Improvement" of "New Youth", break the old traditional and innovative literature, come and see it, come and buy it." ”

Although Cheng Nuo didn't like this well-known originator, there was still some merit in this article, so he immediately squeezed into the crowd, paid for a copy, and walked to the side to read it carefully.

But looking at it, Cheng Nuo suddenly thought that they had started their liberal arts, and science and engineering should also have action.

"Since they have a magazine, I should also start an academic journal."

At this time, there were no decent mathematics journals in China, or because of the blank field, it was not that no one thought of running mathematics journals in the past, but unfortunately they were only closed after a few issues.

Cheng Nuo can take the opportunity to write a special book and write his own thick strokes.

It is difficult to make a forest alone.

The journal can directly disseminate and exchange academic ideas in mathematical sciences and publicize the latest international mathematical achievements in major universities across the country.

After all, as a future scholar, if you don't have a publication under your control, it is equivalent to losing a lot of right to speak, and it is easy to be stuck.

Calculate the time, tomorrow is the inauguration ceremony of Mr. Cai Yuanpei, and you can communicate with him in the afternoon.
