The basement is very hidden, and in the utility room next to the stairs, there is a secret left by the old man's father, which is not known to the people who used to be in the bungalow.

Because the bungalow didn't pay, the lights couldn't be turned on, and the utility room didn't have any wires, just to better hide the secret.

Cao Kang held a candle with one hand to illuminate the old man, the so-called mechanism, just behind the door of the utility room, in the most hidden corner, open a wooden board, you can see the turntable inside.

The old man turned the handle of the turntable slightly, only to hear the sound of the low wall facing the staircase, and then slowly sank to reveal a dark entrance.

"There's also a switch inside, so you won't get trapped, and there's a wire, and it's twice the size of this utility room, and when the time comes, you can go down and have a look."

After the old man showed the secret of the bungalow, he patted the dust on his hands and left with the three of them.

If it is solved sooner, he will be able to leave for his wife and son in the evening.

……

Because there was no commercial housing in this era, and the tube buildings where the workers lived belonged to the state, and there was no property right, there were very few people who transferred the house, and the procedures were handled quickly.

Although private transactions are not allowed, who can say anything as long as the person who comes says something like transferring it to his distant relative.

It's like looking for a nanny, they are talking about distant relatives, and everyone turns a blind eye to it, and they just tacitly do it.

After everything was done, the four of them walked out of the housing management office, and the old man was obviously much more relaxed, "I accidentally saw it just now, is your surname Ruan?" I used to know a person surnamed Ruan, I don't know if it is inconvenient for Fang to reveal the names of the elders in the family? ”

"Nguyen Henian."

Shanghai said that it was not big, and it was not small to say that it was small, but the old man's age and past family background were there, and as soon as he opened his mouth, Ruan Jiaojiao intuitively felt that the person in his mouth was Grandpa Ruan.

"Yes, yes, it's Brother Crane Year. Is he—He's back, too? ”

There was a sparkle in the old man's eyes, and he looked at Ruan Jiaojiao with anticipation.

Ruan Jiaojiao didn't speak, just shook her head slightly, and smiled politely with bitterness.

The old man was visibly disappointed, and after being stunned, he told Ruan Jiaojiao about the previous story while walking.

All in all, he praised Grandpa Ruan's excellence, he could support the family business at the age of ten, and he was the object of worship of all their children at that time.

Grandpa Ruan once led their group of second-generation foreigners to play with many foreigners, but those foreigners didn't feel that they were being played at all, but rushed to do business with Grandpa Ruan.

At that time, in the Shanghai market, local merchants had a low status and were often oppressed, but it was because of the existence of Grandpa Ruan that those foreigners who were above the top would not look down on them, but they could also be treated equally.

Back at the bungalow, the old man packed his luggage and handed the key to Steward Xu.

When he saw Cao Kang send the last half of the final payment, the old man waved his hand.

"I was favored by your grandfather, and I didn't take this ten thousand. I'm not a person who lacks money, and the reason why I want so much is because my house is really worth the price. Hope you can treat it well in the future. ”

Ruan Jiaojiao nodded, took the money in Cao Kang's hand, and forcibly stuffed it into the old man's hand, "Grandpa Rong, I will definitely carefully repair this bungalow and let it regain its former style." You used to be a businessman, and a transaction is a transaction, and a relationship is a relationship, and when the two are mixed up, it breaks the rules. You deserve the money, and you have to take it. As for grandpa's favors......"

Ruan Jiaojiao chuckled: "I think we are destined to meet again, when the time comes, you can look at your grandfather's face and take care of me for two more points." ”

"Good!" Mr. Rong clenched the money in his hand, saw Ruan Jiaojiao's eyes moved and amazed, and then rummaged through the bag and found a piece of paper with an address and phone number and handed it to Ruan Jiaojiao.

"This is my son's address and contact number in Lisi Country, contact us if necessary. Our family used to be in the grain business, and it is now, and the business in Europe is not small, if you need us, don't be polite. ”

"Thank you, Grandpa Rong, if I need it, I will definitely not be polite to you." Ruan Jiaojiao put the contact information into her bag, and secretly said in her heart: Connections +1.

Mr. Rong was not ready to delay, it was time to find someone to leave, before leaving, he hesitated and asked, "Your family... Your parents ...... them."

"I'm the only one left." Ruan Jiaojiao's smile was genuinely bitter.

She seems to have been born without kinship, and there was still a bit of hypocrisy before the crossing, and even the appearance was gone after the crossing.

But fortunately, compared with the worthless family affection, fortunately she has endless money, a new life that she doesn't have to swallow, and her bitter smile is no longer bitter, so I'm really happy to think about it.

Old Man Rong only thought that Ruan Jiaojiao was having fun in her suffering, and while she was distressed and embarrassed, she didn't forget to emphasize again: "Child, if you have difficulties, you must contact us." Although you and Grandpa Rong and I don't have any great skills, I also have some connections, and I will definitely try my best to help you. ”

Seeing off Mr. Rong, Ruan Jiaojiao looked at her own top-level garden house, and the more she looked at it, the happier she became.

It was still early, so after Cao Kang locked the door, the three of them ran to the next nearby property.

…

After dinner, Steward Xu arranged for Rong's mother to come to serve Ruan Jiaojiao.

I bought three houses today, and I spent less than 40,000 yuan in total, which is really the price of cabbage.

However, Ruan Jiaojiao really worked hard to see the house, at least two days of exercise, and it was really timely for Steward Xu to let Rong's mother come over.

After Rong's mother left, Ruan Jiaojiao met Chen Lijian, and he needed to arrange someone to clean up the three houses simply, but Ruan Jiaojiao was not in a hurry for the overall repair and design, and was ready to find a real master to do it.

The area of the house is large, and when the time comes, whether it is the current people in the family or a few more live-in nannies, they can live in it, as her permanent residence in Shanghai in the future, she must strive for excellence.

Chen Lijian's decoration team has also taken on a lot of work recently, of course, it is all small work, which is not as much as Ruan Jiaojiao, the boss shareholder and major customer, but his career has improved, of course he is very happy.

His team has also expanded again and again, and the old man took the newcomer to repair the house, and he and the most professional people naturally clinged to Ruan Jiaojiao's English-style house.

When he came this time, he also brought a piece of news, which was related to the Ji family brothers and sisters.

The brothers and sisters of the Ji family......

Ruan Jiaojiao was stunned for a moment when she heard the names of these two people, and then she realized that it was the little fool born of two big fools, the two who came to the door and gave money.

According to Chen Lijian, he passed by a house this morning, and there were many people watching the excitement outside the door, listening to the onlookers' chatter, and that room was the outside home of the Ji family brothers and sisters.

The reason why it is so lively is that Ji Yingcai enlarged the belly of the female classmate, and the family of the female classmate came to the door, and if they were not responsible, they said that Ji Yingcai was a hooligan and pulled him to eat guns.
