Compared to going to Guangcheng, the drive from Rongcheng to the magic capital is almost half the time.

During this period, they had to transfer two trains, and by the time Chen Xu and Liu Dajin arrived at the Modu Railway Station, it was already past nine o'clock in the morning on the fourth day.

Chen Xu and Liu Dajin followed the crowd out of the train station, and the landmark building in front of the station, a majestic English-style Western-style building, suddenly came into view.

This is a four-story office building designed and built specifically for the British the following year after the completion of the Shanghai-Nanjing Railway in 1908.

The ground floor exterior wall is made of Qingdao stone, red brick wall, decorated with light-colored strip inlay, with marble columns and arched doors and windows, exuding a strong British style.

Chen Xu also saw this building in later generations, but it was just an exhibit that was restored at 80% original scale in 2004 and built in the Shanghai Railway Museum.

Compared with the exhibits restored in later generations, standing under this building now, he can truly and intuitively feel the exquisite structure and majestic momentum of this building, and just looking at it makes him feel extremely excited.

He felt even more fortunate, glad to be able to be reborn back, and fortunate to witness the demeanor and charm of the old demon capital in this era.

The two followed the crowd out of the square and to the bus stop, where long lines of vehicles lined up.

Liu Dajin is familiar with Shanghai, and he also knows that Chen Xu wants to go to the garden house on Yuyuan Road.

But from this side, it's not a two-hour journey.

The two ran on the train for several days, and there was almost no oil in their stomachs.

"Yuyuan Road is quite far from here, let's go eat something first." Liu Dajin said while leading Chen Xu to the main street.

Chen Xu had already attracted the attention of various stalls on the roadside at this time, and when he heard Liu Dajin's suggestion, he nodded in agreement, "Cheng, anyway, I don't know anything about this side, how to arrange to listen to you." "

For the magic capital, Chen Xu really doesn't know much.

Even if the current magic capital is already very prosperous compared to other cities, the difference is not the slightest compared to later generations.

What's more, many place names will change in later generations, and the time he spent in the magic capital in his last life is estimated to be less than two years, and he is busy with the company's affairs every day, and he knows more about the development of the city, but in terms of road traffic, it is much inferior.

However, he is not in a hurry, just in time to slow down and experience the terroir and charm of old Shanghai in this era.

Compared with Rongcheng, whether it is street vendors or pedestrians on the road, few of them wear "Zhenliang" clothes that are still popular in small cities.

Basically, they are brightly colored and stylish jeans, corduroy, and even a few flared pants and toad mirrors that have just begun to become popular and seem out of place with the people around them.

There are also many things for sale, including bright floral cloth and tempered glass cups.

Soon, Liu Dajin took Chen Xu to find a snack bar with more people, and the two ordered some snacks, listening to the chats of the surrounding guests, while eating.

After a meal, it is less than two dollars.

Chen Xu took the initiative to check out, followed Liu Dajin's humanoid map, and the two got on a bus and went to their destination.

The car drove on a wide road, and several huge advertisements stood on the side of the road.

One of them is an advertisement for a bicycle from the Phoenix brand.

Simple and straightforward, very characteristic of this era.

Chen Xu was very quiet all the way, looking at everything floating outside the window, the excitement in his heart was indescribable.

After nearly two hours of driving, the two finally reached their destination.

Yuyuan Road in the magic capital.

The road runs from Jing'an Temple in the east to the vicinity of Zhongshan Park in the west, and is one of 64 roads in Shanghai that will never widen.

This was once the French Concession, and in this era, as a high-quality residential area, a variety of garden houses were gathered.

Most of these bungalows were built in 1912 and each occupies an area of about 1,000 square meters.

The three-bay single-family structure, the classic gray brick wall outside the sunlight reveals a bit of quaint and classic atmosphere.

"The house where this foreigner lives is magnificent. Rao

is Liu Dajin, the "Liu Bancheng" of Rongcheng, and looking at this quaint and atmospheric garden house, he couldn't help but marvel.

Chen Xu also nodded in agreement, and his heart couldn't contain his excitement.

In addition to the fact that this house is really beautiful, more is that this house will have more than 100 million in the future.

Where is this ordinary garden building, this is simply a small golden mountain.

However, in this era, there is no such thing as an intermediary.

If Chen Xu wants to buy this house, he has to find it one by one.

The two walked some distance on the road and saw a middle-aged man wearing overalls and holding a broom, sweeping the leaves on the ground on the road.

When Chen Xu saw the man, he immediately stepped forward and greeted the other party.

The old uncle is a local, hearing Chen Xu's accent from a foreigner, coupled with the ordinary clothes on the two of them, he was wary and asked him, "Big man, what are you doing here?" Liu

Dajin didn't know why Chen Xu suddenly greeted passers-by, and just about to tell someone that he was coming to take a tour, Chen Xu had already handed the other party a pack of unopened butterfly spring cigarettes with a smile and said, Uncle, I'm from Rongcheng, I want to buy a set of this beautiful garden house here in the magic capital, I want to inquire with you.

When the latter saw the cigarette handed to him, his face brightened slightly, and while reaching out to take it, he looked at Chen Xu again, only feeling a little incredible, and asked Chen Xu, "You... Want to buy a house here?" he

knew over there in Rongcheng, a small city, not even comparable to the Guangcheng side.

The cheapest set of this bungalow is also more than 20,000 yuan, this outsider actually wants to buy it, does he not know that this bungalow is very expensive?

He hadn't heard that Chen Xu planned to come to the magic capital to develop, and the melon seed shop was still in Rongcheng, and he also bought a house in Rongcheng.

Now the bungalows in this magic capital, especially this garden house, do not have more than 20,000 yuan, how can it be taken down!

Although this uncle is just a sweeper here, the other party must know this side very well.

He followed Liu Dajin slowly and found that it was already the year of the monkey.

If you let this uncle lead the way directly, you can save a lot of effort.

Seeing Chen Xu's confident expression, the uncle looked at him with a somewhat strange expression, thought for a moment, and then spoke, "It's okay to take you to see the house, but you have to give me some errands." "

Looking at these two young people, it is not very reliable, in case the other party is playing with him, isn't it following the busy work?

He quickly pulled Chen Xu aside and said to him, "Chen Xu, what are you doing, there is no place to spend too much money?"
