Run a B&B and receive Wu Song at the beginning

"It will be much easier if you have drawings."

Wang Chunxi looked at the design and construction drawings and became more confident about the courtyard upgrade project.

Li Yu went to the kitchen to boil water, took a few sweet potatoes and put them in the oven, selected the air fryer function, and started baking.

When I left, I promised to bring roasted sweet potatoes to Brother Dao, but when I met Wang Chunxi, I completely forgot about it.

While there is still time to recover, use the oven to cook a few to satisfy your dog's craving.

After the water was boiled, he poured it into a teapot, brewed a pot of Lapsang souchong, and carried it outside.

"Captain Wang, come on, come on, have some tea."

Wang Chunxi wore glasses and sat cross-legged on the steps in front of the living room, comparing the design on the drawing with the existing layout of the yard to see if there were any changes.

Seeing Li Yu coming over with tea, he waved his hand and said:

"You're welcome, Li. I'll confirm the location of the pavilion first."

After speaking, he took out a pencil and ruler from his bag and started drawing on the drawing.

Li Yu didn't bother, but came to the living room to find a suitable place to display Hanfu.

The place facing the front desk is not suitable. You need to check in here. When there are many guests, it is bustling and no one cares about the Hanfu.

He thought about it and planned to put up a set of screens next to the reception area and put Hanfu inside the screens.

This can not only provide privacy, but the barrier of the screen can also arouse the curiosity of tourists. When they come in and look at the dazzling array of Hanfu, they may be confused at once.

"Xiao Li, do you think it would be okay to put a pavilion in this location?"

Outside the living room, Wang Chunxi was writing and drawing, and finally determined a suitable location for installing the pavilion on the drawing.

Li Yu came over and saw a few lines drawn on the drawing.

With excitement on his face, Lao Wang gestured at the drawings and said:

"Build a corridor to the left at the gate, turn at a right angle next to the sweet-scented osmanthus tree, and lead to the living room. Then build a short corridor in the middle, and place the pavilion near the west wall. A stone walkway can be added on the other side, close to the wall, all the way to the corner of the corridor..."

Li Yu didn't understand drawings and didn't have renderings, so he didn't understand some of them.

Wang Chunxi saw that he was confused, so he simply put down the drawings and took him for a walk.

"The place I walked through just now is full of corridors, with vermilion pillars and glazed tiles of the same color as the main building. There are places to sit on both sides of the corridor for tourists to take pictures..."

After all, he is someone who often does this kind of work, so Lao Wang easily explained the plan for the front yard.

Li Yu imagined it and felt that the problem of empty front yard was solved at once, and this corridor could also echo the corridor in front of the small building and restaurant, which would be very beautiful.

"I think this plan is good, but will the construction time be very long?"

Li Yu is still thinking about cooperating with Hao Zhenzhen. If it takes too long, Hao Zhenzhen might find another B\u0026B to cooperate with. Anyway, she just sells Hanfu, so it doesn't matter who she cooperates with.

Wang Chunxi said with a smile:

"Quickly, go back and dig out the floor, hit it with a tamping machine, and install it directly. The corridor and pavilion are semi-finished products. They can be installed in two days after being shipped over. After a few coats of paint, they are guaranteed to look like pure solid wood. "

It does sound simple.

Li Yu smiled and said:

"Then please leave it to Captain Wang."

"Xiao Li, you are being polite when you say this. Isn't the backyard also being renovated? Come on, take me to see it first."

The two walked through the living room to the backyard. Wang Chunxi held the drawings and wrote and drew again. Finally, he decided to divide the backyard into two halves. One half was made into a garden with a lotus pond, and the other half was paved with antique floor tiles to make a martial arts arena. .

"The dividing line is the corridor, which separates directly from the middle. The end of the corridor is raised three meters to make steps. The top is built into a viewing platform in the shape of the Great Wall, which is suitable for tourists to take pictures."

At the end of the courtyard is a courtyard wall. Beyond the courtyard wall, probably less than a hundred meters away, is the cliff facing the opposite side.

If you raise the area against the wall and build a Great Wall-style viewing platform, the scenery will be absolutely superb.

Moreover, after being raised, the originally ordinary yard has layers and looks more beautiful. Not to mention taking photos, it is no problem to film TV series here.

"Where are the stables?"

Since it is a Hanfu-themed B\u0026B, stables are essential.

Not only can you take photos in the stables, but when business is good, you can also rent a few horses from Longqishan for tourists to take riding photos.

It would be very convenient if Lu Bu came over on a red rabbit horse one day.

Wang Chunxi pointed to the courtyard wall on the other side of the martial arts arena:

"Just build one row against the courtyard wall. It won't affect the layout of the courtyard, and it's also convenient for cleaning up horse manure."

It seems that Lao Wang has taken everything into consideration.

But for such a big war, 200,000 is not enough, right?

Li Yu asked tentatively:

"Captain Wang, what do you think the budget is for this?"

Wang Chunxi took out his mobile phone, opened the calculator, and calculated it carefully:

"The total cost is about half a million. Of course, you need to use cheaper materials. I can make it in my early forties. There are cheaper materials, but the quality is too poor. I personally don't recommend you to use them."

Originally I only wanted to spend 200,000 for a small upgrade, but unexpectedly it jumped to 500,000.

This made Li Yu hesitate.

But Lao Wang’s design can definitely significantly improve the B\u0026B.

Thinking of this, his heart skipped a beat, and his old habit of adding budgets came back again.

Five hundred thousand is half a million. Anyway, there is no business now, so it is better to do everything to the extreme, so as not to go back to business, want to upgrade but can't find the time.

"Then five hundred thousand. Captain Wang, you have to use good materials and you can't fool around."

Wang Chunxi patted her chest and promised:

"Don't worry, if you have any quality problems, you can come to me."

He went to the car and took out several standard contracts, filled in all the data, took out the official seal of his small construction company from his bag, and signed the contract with Li Yu.

According to the terms of the contract, Li Yu paid an advance payment of 100,000 yuan.

After receiving the money, Wang Chunxi drove back without stopping, summoned his workers to start work, and prepared the building materials to be used.

After he left, the sweet potatoes were almost done roasting.

Li Yu took it out to dry, and then gave it to Brother Dao when it was no longer hot.

At the archaeological team station, Zhou Ruotong finished sorting out her work summary for the week and began to pack her personal belongings. She would take the high-speed train back to the capital with her classmates after her next morning shift.

It was quite busy when I went back this time. Not only did I have to sort out various outdoor climbing equipment, I also had to help Li Yu copy a copy of the Three Kingdoms materials compiled by his uncle.

While he was busy, his second uncle Zhou Bingliang suddenly called.

"Tongtong, the results of the X-ray comparison test are out. The two silver ingots are from the Northern Song Dynasty. The guys at the museum made a bet with me, and each of them lost to me an old jade ornament that I had collected for many years. They were all made of toads, cabbage, Maitreya, Pixiu, etc., what do you want?"

Zhou Ruotong didn't expect that his second uncle was calling about this matter.

She had seen those silver ingots and confirmed that they were real, not counterfeit, but they were just too new to be real compared to the silver ingots on the market.

She said:

"Just give me the biggest one. I'm going to give it to a friend."

When I came back from Beijing on the weekend, I wanted to go to a B\u0026B for dinner, so I decided to give it to Li Yu. The front desk of the B\u0026B didn't even have any decorations, and it looked empty.

Zhou Bingliang agreed:

"Okay, okay, when they deliver it, I will pick the biggest one and pack it up and send it to your home... By the way, Tongtong, that person took out two silver ingots in a short time. I guess he still has it. Can you let him come out again?" several?"

Zhou Ruotong smiled bitterly:

"Are you planning on asking me to rush you?"

"No, no, I'm just saying casually. The museum is almost ready now. It doesn't matter if there are more or less silver ingots. It would be great if there is a treasure that will be the treasure of the museum."

Zhou Ruotong knew what his second uncle was planning:

"The seller has always said that it was a friend who paid off the debt, and it is not his own property. Second uncle, don't worry, there may be more of it later."

The B\u0026B business is so bad, if Li Yu still has antiques in his hands, he will probably continue to sell them.

Zhou Bingliang hummed:

"Okay, keep an eye out for me. By the way, your uncle recently wanted to collect an antique from the Han Dynasty. I heard that you helped me find two silver ingots. He also wants your help. You can just deal with it superficially, but you still have to Hurry up and help me find cultural relics from the Song Dynasty."

You are really brothers and sisters... Zhou Ruotong felt so tired. She agreed, chatted for a few more words, and then hung up the phone.

After packing up his personal belongings, Zhou Ruotong returned to Guanlan Mingshu Community, took a few clothes with him, and chartered a car with his classmates to go straight to the high-speed rail station to return to Beijing for the weekend.

At the same time, at the door of the B\u0026B, Li Yu looked at the five carts full of cabbage and was a little surprised.

"This is two acres of land, and it weighs 18,000 kilograms. Where can I unload it, boss?"

Xiaoju jumped out of the car, her face flushed with exhaustion.

Li Yu originally wanted her to unload it in the yard, but he probably couldn't unload so much, so he quickly opened the door to the backyard and unloaded it on the open space.

Village director Wang Shengli also followed, and he told Li Yu:

"The freshly dug cabbage has a high humidity, so it needs to be dried in the sun for a few days until the leaves on the surface are dry before being collected. Otherwise, it will rot in a few days and cannot be stored."

Is there such a thing?

Li Yu quickly wrote it down, and when he saw Lu Bu, he told him.

But when will this guy come?

It would be great if there was a walkie-talkie that spans time and space. Just call him over when you prepare the supplies without delaying things.

Just as he was muttering, he saw Brother Dao sneaking into the backyard to watch the fun, and a thought suddenly flashed in his mind.

I can't contact Lu Bu, but Brother Dao might be able to.

He smiled and walked towards the golden retriever:

"Gouzi, it's time for you to contribute to the family again..."
