Siheyuan: I am Liu Guangqi

After seeing off the Fifth Master and the others, Liu Guangqi's life returned to peace. Next, it was time to consider how to decorate the house. During the half day at school, Liu Guangqi didn't listen to what the teacher said at all.

Except for the Russian language, which is a little difficult for Liu Guangqi, the courses at this stage are basically just watering down. It is so simple that Liu Guangqi can understand it after just reading it once.

After thinking about it and drawing on paper from time to time all afternoon, Liu Guangqi finally decided on the decoration plan before school.

When it comes to decoration, you have to hurry up and install it while the weather is warm. Now is the most suitable time. The autumn air is crisp, the sky is high, the clouds are clear, the temperature is suitable, and there is little rain.

After returning home, Liu Guangqi went to Dongkua Courtyard and found Lei Laowu, the decoration team leader who was installing the door. This Lei Laowu was not the Lei Laowu who robbed tombs in Xi'an.

Our ancestors were very famous for their unique styles. Many buildings in the Old Summer Palace and the Summer Palace were built by this family.

It's a pity that since the fall of the Qing Dynasty, this family has also declined. After all, although they have craftsmanship, they still have to be hired. Unlike the Bai family's medicinal herb business, which has a steady stream of water every day, decline is natural.

thing.

The reason why Bai Jingye was able to invite the other party was because the two families were old acquaintances because they had received support from the palace in the past. In addition, it was hard to make money now, so it was good to have work to do. Moreover, Bai Jingye was quite generous.

So I agreed.

"Master Lei, look at my drawing, and see if you can decorate the house like mine." After finding Lei Laowu, Liu Guangqi handed the sketch he had drawn all afternoon to him. Liu Guangqi's idea was very simple.

The first thing to do is to wait for the door to be repaired, seal the door to the back room, change it back to its original appearance, and turn it into a house again.

In this way, he has four rooms, and the living area is 80 square meters, which is quite a lot in this era.

The second thing is to open the partition walls of the three rooms on the west side, seal the doors of the two rooms on the left and right, and expand the door in the middle to form a large opening.

Then build a loft and divide it into two floors, with a floor height of 5.5 meters and a floor height of 2.7 meters each. At this height, the upper and lower floors will not feel cramped. The upper part will be made into three small rooms, which will be reserved for the children in the future. Each small room

A dormer window will be made on the roof to increase the lighting, so that it is so dark that nothing can be seen.

Next, the west room will be Liu Guangqi and Qin Huairu's bedroom, the middle room will be the living room, and the east room will be the kitchen and bathroom. At the same time, Liu Guangqi will install a household heating stove here to heat these four houses. After all, it's winter when the old bj arrives.

It's not easy.

This heating stove belongs to Liu Guangqi's space. One winter, Liu Guangqi's home felt too cold, so he bought it.

I was going to install a heater at home, but just two days after I bought it, the village issued a notice banning coal burning.

You say it's nonsense, don't let it be used, but it's easy to go from frugality to luxury, but it's hard to go from luxury to frugality. After a few warm days, who wants to keep warm by stamping their feet like before?

In addition, the pipes and radiators installed previously are still there.

So Liu Guangqi's grandfather built another electric stove to continue his enthusiasm.

With that, this one is naturally no longer needed, but after using it, I definitely can’t return it, and I can’t bear to throw it away. After all, I spent a lot of money to buy it, so I just threw it in the utility room. Now it’s cheaper Liu Guangqi

.

If you have the stove and other things, you can go to hardware stores or scrap recycling depots. If it doesn't work, let Lao Liu get some from the factory. There is always a way to get the pipes and radiators. If you can't get them, Liu Guangqi will have no choice but to demolish the house.

, anyway, the temperature in space now is more than 20 degrees all year round, so there is no need for this thing.

"This is what you drew." Lei Laowu sat on the steps and carefully looked at several sketches drawn by Liu Guangqi, then looked up at Guangqi and asked.

"I painted it. Can it be done?" Liu Guangqi asked with some anxiety. He really didn't know anything about the level of decoration in this era, and he didn't know whether Lei Laowu could fake the effect he wanted.

"You can do it. Little guy, you have a very good brain and the pictures you draw are very detailed. If you do this, it will cost a lot of money. Can you afford it?" Lei Laowu blew out a puff of smoke from his mouth.

smiled.

“Approximately how much does it cost?”

"A little over three million, including materials and labor."

"Damn, it's so expensive." When Liu Guangqi heard that the cost of installing a house was almost the same as buying a house, he cursed in his heart. This was really a bit beyond his budget.

"It's not expensive. You need to build a loft for all four rooms. You must do it together. Remove the walls, erect the walls, three stairs, and four dormer windows. In addition, you also mentioned that you need to pave the floor and build the house.

It’s really not expensive to build a toilet inside.” Lei Laowu saw Liu Guangqi’s hesitation, so he calculated the cost of each project for Liu Guangqi.

"Okay, three million is three million. Can it be cheaper for me to pay for the floor tiles and bathroom wall tiles myself?" Liu Guangqi suddenly remembered that he still had a warehouse of ceramic tiles in his space. There was no need to wait any longer.

hour.

"Yes." It's really rare to see a boss as cheerful as Liu Guangqi. Anyway, he has already made a lot of money in other jobs. Lei Laowu didn't care about the three melons and two dates on the floor tiles, so he agreed to Liu Guangqi's request.

"Okay, after you finish the door, you can ask someone to install it for me. Tell me how much it will cost." After discussing all the decoration matters with Lei Laowu, Liu Guangqi gave

He gave the other party 500,000 yuan as the start-up capital for the renovation.

So Liu Guangqi's four houses began to be decorated vigorously the next day. It only took half a day to work, and the originally decent back room was smashed into only a shelf.

"No, Master Lei, I just asked you to smash these two partition walls. Why did you also smash this wall for me?" Liu Guangqi, who came back from school, was dumbfounded when he looked at the house in front of him. The four rooms have now changed.

It has become a room, and standing inside you can directly see the opposite wall from this wall.

"It won't work without smashing it. Since you want all four rooms to be attics, the supports in the attic must be made stable. If you don't demolish them, the pillars will take up space and be unstable." After Lei Laowu explained, Liu Guangqi finally understood.

I understand what Lei Lao Wu meant.

"Don't worry, you won't waste your money. These bricks will be laid over there in a moment, and the back wall will be built up." Lei Laowu pointed to the blue bricks that had been removed from the ground, and then pointed to the original bricks.

The dismantled back wall.

"Well, I'll do as you say." Liu Guangqi nodded.

"You have to hurry up and buy floor tiles. We can finish building this wall today. As you said, we should dig the ground tomorrow. After digging the ground, we should lay the tiles."

"Okay, I understand. I'll contact you soon." This matter is trivial to Liu Guangqi. No matter how long he stays in the warehouse, it may only be a moment to the outside. Liu Guangqi can take care of it in just a short time.

It's done.

"There's something I don't understand. I want to ask." The two chatted for a few more words, and Lei Laowu suddenly raised a question.

"You say"

"Why don't you open up all four rooms so that the room can be bigger? Why do you have to leave one small room?"

"Well, I plan to live in this house for my younger brother. My younger brother is getting older this year and can no longer sleep in the same bed with my parents. It's time to live alone." In addition to this reason, there are also

One thing is that Liu Guangqi is afraid that the street will come to occupy his house. He doesn't want the house he finally bought with so much money to be occupied by someone else at a very low rent before he even lives in it.

In that case, how could he have an affair with Bai Mei, so he must ensure that the people living in this courtyard are his own people who will not betray him.

"Oh, then why don't you put this house on the west side instead of the east side? If you want to use a toilet in the house, it's best to put the toilet in the northeast corner, because this place has walls on both sides to prevent moisture, and

The public toilet here is close to the sewer." Lei Laowu nodded, and then put forward his own questions and suggestions.

"This?" Liu Guangqi really hadn't thought about this question, but he instinctively felt that he should do this. But when Lei Laowu said this, he also felt that his design was a bit unreasonable.
