Chapter 211 Building a House

Yan Xin did not drive back, but took the train back.

Thanks to Feng Chen's relationship, an experienced master was brought over from Master Ruan's construction site. This master's surname was Zhou. He was from the same county as Yan Xin, but they were not in the same town. He had also been with Wei Qiang before.

Some country houses.

Also brought over was a design drawing of a country villa. This was either designed by someone else, or they had used the drawing before.

Yan Xin didn't think about building a luxurious villa, nor did he pursue any unique design sense. It was just fine. There was no need to make a separate design.

In rural areas, it is okay if the house is built well, but it is not a good thing if the house is built too well.

Just take one master there, let him be the foreman, find a few bricklayers in the county, and a team will be formed.

Not all craftsmen who are good at building houses go to big cities to work hard. There are still some who are unwilling to leave home and stay in their hometowns. Moreover, they can also find work, and sometimes they are even too busy.

They are all in this field, and they have a familiar circle. It is easy to pull together a team. There is no need to bring people from the construction area in Dalang.

According to Master Zhou's estimate, the construction cost of such a villa, including construction and decoration, including labor costs, is about three hundred thousand yuan.

At this time, it would cost less than 300,000 yuan to buy a house of more than 100 square meters in my hometown.

With such a budget, the house built is already quite luxurious.

Of course, the villa they want to build covers an area of ​​more than a hundred square meters. It needs to cover an area of ​​1,560 square meters and has two floors.

——Master Zhou suggested that Yan Xin build a three-story villa, but after thinking about it, Yan Xin finally felt that it was completely meaningless to build a three-story villa for just the two of them, as it was not convenient for cleaning, so he might as well just build it.

Two floors, use the money saved on decoration materials, furniture, appliances, etc.

The two floors are actually a bit big, but considering that we will get married and have children in the future, and sometimes guests will come over, it is necessary to leave some room.

Three layers is really not necessary.

The two of them took the train back, and Yan Xin even told Feng Xi that he would go take a look at the online store then.

When they arrived at the county town, Master Zhou did not go back to his home first, but followed Yan Xin to his home.

Yan's father received the call and had already prepared meals and was waiting there.

After arriving home, Master Zhou looked at the Yan family's dilapidated house and couldn't help but sigh: "I never thought there were such dilapidated houses in our county."

Yan's father was embarrassed to say this.

If the house is dilapidated, that means he has no ability.

But Master Zhou quickly added: "But soon your family will become the best family in this village."

This is no exaggeration either.

There are some buildings in this village, but there are no villas.

In this town, there are only a few houses that have built villas, and the styles are quite ordinary.

The drawings they brought this time were designs for villas that farmers in Fengcheng would live in. Although they couldn't be said to be very luxurious, they were much better than those in the inland villages.

He brought the design drawings, checked the terrain, compared them one by one, and figured out where to do what, and he probably made a calculation in his mind.

While watching, I explained it to the Yan family and his son.

I also pulled out a ruler to measure the area.

Dad Yan doesn't understand this very well, but he can roughly understand how big the area of ​​​​this house will be.

The more he listened, the more frightened he became, and he asked Master Zhou: "Master, how much does it cost to build such a big house?"

The only money I saved was 20,000 to 30,000 yuan, and the rest was borrowed from my son.

Although my son said that there is no interest on the borrowed money, it is quite scary if he borrows too much.

From what Master Zhou said, he made a rough estimate that a two-story building with such a large area would cost over 100,000 yuan.

With his experience over the years, the valuation of those building materials is only the cheapest materials used. As for the decoration, it does not count - just put some cement and put some lime on it, that is decoration, and it is not worth a cent in the overall cost of the house.

carry.

There won’t be much fuss about the foundation or anything like that.

The buildings in the village are all similar, so there won’t be much cost invested in the foundation.

So the price he estimated was relatively low.

But even this price gave him a frightening feeling that it was too high.

The family only has 20,000 to 30,000 yuan, and if it costs more than 100,000 yuan to build a house, it would be equivalent to owing tens of thousands of yuan.

In the past, the most I owed was 10,000 to 20,000 yuan, and I felt overwhelmed.

Now I have to owe so much money just to build a house. Thinking about it makes me feel very stressed.

Master Zhou received Yan Xin's instructions and did not say the cost of the house. He just said with a smile: "It doesn't cost much. With Xiao Yan's ability, such a house can be earned back in two years at most."

It only takes two years to make money back, which makes Dad Yan feel relieved a lot.

Yan Xin said to him again: "Building a house is a major event in life. In order to buy a house in a big city, people often have to bear a very high mortgage loan, which takes ten or twenty years to repay. I built such a house.

A little debt on a house means nothing."

The exchange of words with Master Zhou finally made Dad Yan less worried.

Master Zhou had a meal here and then left.

The site has been inspected, he has to go back to his home, and then recruit a few bricklayers to come over and start working on an appointment.

Before building a house, the house needs to be demolished. Master Zhou does not need to do this. The Yan family can just find someone to do it themselves.

Demolishing a house at this time is not about using an excavator to flatten it and turn it into a pile of rubble.

Now there are no excavators in the village, so demolition is done manually. Starting from the roof tiles, the demolition is slowly done, and the useful things are put aside, which is very inefficient.

But now that Yan Xin doesn't want to use those old things when building a house, he can be more violent when demolishing the house, so that the effect will be much faster.

The night Yan Xin came back, Yan's father went from house to house asking people to help demolish the house.

Of course, this requires wages, 20 yuan a day, two meals, and a pack of cigarettes per person.

Only then did everyone know that their family was going to build a new house, and there were many congratulations.

The next day we started demolishing the house and building a temporary shelter.

Yan Xin didn't want to bother with things like building materials, so he let Master Zhou handle them.

Master Zhou is also very efficient. The next day after returning home, he followed the truck driver to pull a cart of bricks from the brick factory in the neighboring town.

After taking this trip with the truck driver, you can then let the truck driver pull it over by himself.

The cooperation model between Yan Xin and Master Zhou is to give Master Zhou more than 300,000 yuan, then buy materials and ask workers to prepare meals and other things.

This will cost a little more money, but it can save a lot of trouble.

For Yan Xin now, spending thousands or tens of thousands of dollars is really not a big deal.

Dad Yan doesn't need help, he just needs to watch them construct.

You can still do your own thing if you don't want to watch.

If you have to sleep in a shack at night, you have to take care of the building materials.

Although most of the people in the village are quite honest, there are still a few unsimple people. If no one is watching over them, all the valuable building materials can be stolen in one night.

Yan Xin's original intention was to let Yan's father live at his aunt's house for a month or two, and Master Zhou would ask someone to live here and take care of the building materials, so that he would not have to live in a shack.

But Yan's father didn't want to trouble other people's families, and he couldn't let go of his work at home, so he insisted on staying here. Yan Xin had no choice but to comply.

As for himself, he stayed at home for four or five days, lived in a shack for a few days, and then left his hometown.

At this time, the National Day Golden Week has arrived.
