After Entering the Book, She Became Rich in the 1980s

Chapter 333 Buying floor tiles

After leaving the hospital, Zhou Chenglei took out the strawberries for Jiang Xia to eat, but only took two, fearing that she would not be able to eat for a while.

Another restaurant has opened in the city, and it is relatively large. I saw it on the way here. Zhou Chenglei drove Jiang Xia to the newly opened restaurant on his motorcycle to eat.

The dish was ordered by Jiang Xia. Jiang Xia wanted to eat many dishes, but in the end he only ordered two braised pigeons, one tomato-egg-smooth beef, and one green vegetable.

Squab and beef are rarely available at home.

So when you go out to eat, it’s better to eat something you don’t eat at home.

Zhou Chenglei ordered another coconut chicken soup.

After the two of them had eaten, Zhou Chenglei drove her on his motorcycle to pick out floor tiles and ceramic tiles.

Fortunately, I bought a motorcycle and driving it around is much more comfortable than a bicycle.

The two came to the place where ceramic tiles were sold in the city.

The first impression of Jiangxia is that it is colorful, with many old-fashioned tiles, like a kaleidoscope, and the sense of age is overwhelming.

Zhou Chenglei pointed to a kind of red brick and asked Jiang Xia: "This kind of brick is laid on the ground on the first floor? It is moisture-proof and water-absorbent."

It just doesn't look good and has no pattern. I don't know if Jiang Xia likes it.

They live by the sea, and the weather is relatively humid for several months a year, especially in spring.

Now the floor of the old house is made of solid soil, so it won't feel damp. However, the floor tiles are different and can easily get wet.

After hearing this, the boss said: "Yes, this kind of red brick is moisture-proof, absorbs water and is cheap. It is most suitable for use on the first floor."

Jiang Xia asked: "Are there any other moisture-proof bricks?"

"This kind of red-stepped bricks is the most moisture-proof. Nowadays, everyone likes to make terrazzo floors. The one under my feet is not as moisture-proof as the red-stepped bricks, but it is also moisture-proof. This is very popular now, and many people in the city make it. There are many colors, and it is OK. Make different patterns. Some are red, some are green, some are yellow, and you can still see the patterns of the stones. Look, how beautiful it is!”

"And this is convenient. It's not like laying floor tiles, where you have to fill in the gaps after laying them. Doesn't the whole floor look nice to you and me?"

Jiangxia didn't really want to choose terrazzo flooring, which would be used more often in hospitals and schools in the future.

"On the first floor, use red bricks." Practicality is more important than beauty.

Even if it is red bricks, not many people are willing to lay them in rural areas now. It would be better to have a cement floor.

"Okay." Zhou Chenglei responded, and then said to the boss: "We will use this red brick on the first floor."

Jiang Xia took a look at the other floor tiles. There were many patterns, mostly geometric and floral patterns, and there were also several mosaic patterns.

Today's floor tiles are not large, and some patterns are four small square tiles put together into a pattern.

Jiang Xia doesn't like fancy styles very much. She likes simplicity, but she can't just choose the style she likes.

Decoration trends vary from generation to generation, and people of this era will definitely prefer what is popular in this era.

She asked Zhou Chenglei: "Which brick do you like? Should you choose the same brick or different bricks for the second and third floors?"

Zhou Chenglei: "I can do either, just pick what you like."

Jiang Xia: "..."

"You pick out a few styles and I'll choose them."

After Zhou Chenglei heard this, he knew that she was spoiled for choice, and he didn't know how.

When the boss heard that they had a second and third floor, he knew it was a big customer, and he actively introduced the latest designs and colors and the good-looking flooring.

Zhou Chenglei didn't listen to him. He picked out a few that he liked, either without patterns, plain colors, or with the simplest patterns.

It just so happened that Jiang Xia didn't like complicated bricks, so he chose a brick with no pattern and a color similar to that of a wooden floor.

I also picked a brick with a large dark green rhombus in the middle and white triangle patterns on the four corners. This one is very period-specific.

She was thinking of picking one with a brighter color that her children would like.

The color of wooden flooring is more calm after all.

These two floor tiles also matched the colors of the two sets of sofas and cabinets that she had previously chosen. The floor tiles are the same throughout the rooms and halls.

Then go to the toilet and kitchen porcelain tiles.

Jiang Xia chose white porcelain pieces, which have no patterns and will never go out of style.

The most important thing is that other patterns don't look good to Jiang Xia.

For the bathroom floor tiles, I chose mosaic-like ones, and also chose green mosaic patterns.

"Do you want Yang Diagonal Line and Yin Diagonal Line?" the boss asked.

Jiang Xia looked over: "The male and female angles are not the same color as the porcelain pieces!"

"It's like this. It won't be obvious if you stick it on."

Jiang Xia thought to herself, the color difference is so big, why isn't it obvious?

It’s better not to have any!

"It won't be necessary for the time being." Then she would see if the tile installer could bevel the edges of the tiles.

Zhou Chenglei pointed to a bathtub: "A bathtub on every floor?"

Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!

Boss: "This is imported. It's very comfortable to take a bath."

Jiang Xia glanced at it: "No, this is not practical."

Zhou Chenglei: "It will be convenient to bathe the children in the future, and it will also be convenient to take medicinal baths."

When Guangzong Yaozu and his brothers had fevers and colds when they were young, his mother would often bring some raw herbs back to give them a bath. After taking a bath, the cold would be cured.

Jiang Xia thought the same thing: "How about installing one? Too many are unnecessary. When this thing is not in use, you will feel that it takes up space."

Zhou Chenglei: "Two, one for the second floor and one for the first floor."

He wanted to install a bathroom in their room for him and Jiang Xia to use.

Seeing how persistent he was and how much he liked taking baths, Jiang Xia let him go.

boss:…

Rich people! Definitely a rich man!

There are so many bathtubs.

This stuff is so expensive!

The boss asked again: "Do you want to put bricks on the wall of the hall? When the time comes, half of the bricks will be put on the wall of the hall. The wall will not be so dirty, especially for a family with children."

Zhou Chenglei: "Then stick it."

"Do you want a toilet or squat toilet? This toilet is also imported. It is very convenient to sit down to use the toilet! Especially for the elderly and pregnant women, they don't have to squat until their feet are numb."

This couple is so young, they probably don’t have children yet, right?

I’m willing to buy two bathtubs, but don’t you mind buying an extra toilet?

Zhou Chenglei: "Yes."

"Want a washbasin?"

"want."

…

Zhou Chenglei was worried that Jiang Xia was too tired, so the two of them spent an hour choosing the floor tiles and ceramic tiles for a building.

At this time, there is no door-to-door measurement service.

But Zhou Chenglei knew what he wanted, so he reported the square meter, and the boss calculated the quantity and paid half of the deposit first.

The whole house has three floors, plus the kitchen and some floor tiles in the yard, flower base tiles, bathroom equipment for the three master bedrooms, bathroom equipment for the three public bathrooms, and decorative tiles for the main entrance and courtyard gate. The tiles for the walls, according to preliminary calculations, cost more than 5,000 yuan, but I don't know if they are enough.

The main ones are the courtyard walls and courtyards, which cannot be calculated accurately until they are made.

After buying the floor tiles, the two went back to Jiang's house to visit Jiang's father and Jiang's mother. They stayed at Jiang's house tonight and returned to the village tomorrow.

Zhou Chenglei had already called Father Jiang in advance.
