Mom, I was wrong

Chapter 23 Building Your Own Courtyard

The court was adjourned at 11 o'clock in the morning.

Zhang Hehua was sentenced to life imprisonment with no chance of commutation of sentence.

Zhang was sentenced to three years in prison without the possibility of commutation. During a medical examination in prison, it was found that Zhang was infected with AIDS.

Wang Jinjun quickly called Miaomiao, who calmly said, "We haven't been together since I got pregnant. He must have been having an affair after I got pregnant, and got the disease."

Wang Jinjun was worried. "No matter what, you two have been living together. Let Sisi take you to the hospital for a checkup tomorrow. It's safer."

Miaomiao thought about it and decided to agree just to be on the safe side.

After returning to the hotel, Miaomiao took out her notebook and started to work. Sisi packed some common things from home and came to Michelangelo International Hotel.

As soon as I entered the room, I saw drawings all over the floor.

"Are you busy as soon as you get back?" Sisi picked up the drawings on the ground one by one and sorted them out.

Miaomiao looked at the computer screen and modified the design draft.

"When I'm busy, I don't have random thoughts. But when I stop, I just... oh!"

Sisi sat next to Miaomiao and put her arm around Miaomiao's shoulders.

“Is this the blueprint for my yard?”

Miaomiao wiped the tears from her eyes and nodded.

See if you can design my courtyard into four bedrooms and two living rooms, each room with a bathroom and cloakroom, and then add a guest bathroom outside, a yoga room, and a larger study room, where Yingzi and I will study and work. Add a two-meter balcony in front of the house. There is no need to design a lot of flowers and plants in the yard, just leave some open space, as I want to grow some vegetables, and leave a doghouse in a suitable place, as I want to raise two retired military dogs.

Miaomiao listened to Sisi's request and looked at her own drawings.

Sisi looked at Miaomiao's expression and said, "Is it troublesome? Isn't the one-month construction period quite tight?"

Miaomiao leaned against Sisi and said, "Sister, it's not troublesome, but according to your idea, tearing down and rebuilding is the fastest way, saving time, effort and money. However, we have to find a construction team quickly, and we have to ask the Housing and Urban-Rural Development Bureau for approval. I can produce the blueprints this afternoon. Ask me to contact the Housing and Urban-Rural Development Bureau to see if there is anyone I know."

Sisi thought about it and said, "Then tear it down and rebuild it. I'll call my brother right away."

Miaomiao looked at the drawing and thought for a while, then said, "Actually, according to your design, there's no need to design my yard. Just follow your requirements. Our two houses are opposite each other and the sizes are the same. I can just make the design and rotate it 180 degrees."

Sisi nodded and said to start the construction as soon as possible. She hoped that the new house would be completed by the time her son returned from training at his third sister's place.

"Okay, I'll call my brother first and go to the hospital for a check-up later. Brother Jinjun told me everything yesterday. You pack your things." Sisi took out her cell phone and called Shi Yintian.

On Shi Yintian's side, after he and Wang Jinjun dealt with Miaomiao's affairs, they went to the old courtyard. Although the road here has been widened, the original environment is still relatively poor, so many people have bought houses and moved into the community. There are some outside tenants and some elderly people living here.

The rent is not very expensive but the location here is good. Just across the road is Xijing No. 1 Middle School, and next to it is Xijing's largest shopping mall, library, museum and commercial district. If it is sold, people will not choose this place, and will buy newly built school district houses. The security and environment here are slightly worse, but even so, the price is not very low.

Sisi and Miaomiao are probably the first family to come back here and rebuild.

Before coming here, Shi Yintian asked his second brother whether these alleys would be developed and constructed.

The second brother shook his head. "Although this area is located in the city center and is in the school district of Xijing No. 1 Middle School, the government actually wanted to develop it before. However, we have found several developers to conduct assessments. The residents here are older and less willing to leave, and the area that can be developed is not very large. After each household is compensated, the profit will be relatively small when construction is carried out, so there has been no movement."

Shi Yintian said, "If we go back and start rebuilding here, is that okay? Does the government have any requirements?"

The second brother looked at this area on the map in the office. "The government is studying this piece of land now. The alleys here are relatively neat, straight and level. Unlike the land in the south of the city, the alleys inside are like a spider web. The government wants to support this place and turn it into the back garden of Xijing No. 1 Middle School and the cultural garden of Xijing City.

The government is now investigating the residents here to see how many of them are ownerless, how many have emigrated, and how many are willing to sell their properties.”

"If we want to renovate or rebuild it, what procedures do we need to go through?" Shi Yintian asked.

"Just go to the Housing and Urban-Rural Development Bureau to get an approval document. It's easy and quick." Wang Jinxuan replied.

At this time, Sisi called him and told him about her and Miaomiao's plan. Shi Yintian said, "Then do as you wish. Let Miaomiao prepare the property certificate for the yard. I will go to you later and complete the formalities together."

Shi Yintian and Wang Jinjun came to Jianguo Hutong, where there were about two thousand households. The size of each family's courtyard and homestead were almost the same, all square.

"I don't know if Uncle Wang's yard is for sale. If so, buy this yard as well. If Sisi gets remarried in the future, I can give it as a dowry. If Yingzi gets married, this place will be more convenient than the building."

Wang Jinjun listened to Brother Tian's plan and started to think about it himself. "Brother Tian, ​​I think none of these houses are occupied. Why don't we ask around? If they are for sale, I will buy two and turn them into teahouses or studios, saving me from climbing up and down in the office building. The roads here have been widened, so it's convenient to park. These houses are right next to the main road outside the city, so they're easier to find and have a better location. Opposite is the side gate of Xijing No. 1 Middle School."

Shi Yintian nodded, opened the door, and found a notebook with phone records in the living room.

When I thought about this, I started to do it, making phone calls one by one to ask.

It was too long ago, and some of the phone calls were no longer connected, but fortunately, the old neighbors were still in touch. Through the contact information given by the elders, Shi Yintian was able to contact the houses that he liked.

Uncle Wang and Uncle Wang II went abroad with their daughters, and Uncle Zhao went to Haishi with his son and never came back.

After discussing with their children, the three families decided to sell the houses to Shi Yintian and Junzi at a family-friendly price of RMB 300 million per set.

"Brother Tian, ​​you are really my brother. This price is really low. If I come here to buy a house by myself, I really can't come up with it without 500 million." Wang Jinjun hugged Shi Yintian's arm and acted coquettishly.

Shi Yintian looked at Wang Jinjun who was rubbing his hands in disgust and said, "Speak nicely. I have lowered the price for you. Please quote me the decoration."

Wang Jinjun immediately saluted Shi Yintian and said, "Don't worry, brother. Not only are they yours, but I'll also give you sister Miaomiao's. This is a great bargain for me."

"Okay, stop joking. I'll go find Michelangelo and Miaomiao to get the formalities. You go and dispatch the construction team. Start construction now. The drawings have been sent over. My old house must be completed before I leave." Shi Yintian looked at Wang Jinjun, "And prepare the money. Uncle Zhao's son will come back tomorrow to sign the contract for you."

"No problem. By the way, Brother Tian, ​​do you have enough money?" Wang Jinjun asked worriedly.

Shi Yintian calculated for a moment and said, "Maybe it's a few thousand dollars short."

Wang Jinjun said, "I'm not kidding, Brother Tian."

Shi Yintian said, "What I said is true. Apart from daily expenses, I gave all my money to the God of Wealth to manage. Now I can withdraw about 2 million yuan, and the rest is real estate. I will call the God of Wealth and ask him later."

Wang Jinjun looked at him slyly, "Brother Tian, ​​you are really smart. The God of Wealth is Pixiu. When he was in the team, that guy was not satisfied with making money. How much did he ask you for in handling fees?"

"3%" Shi Yintian stretched out three fingers.

When Junzi saw the three fingers, he almost vomited blood, "He wanted 5% from me."

"I've asked the God of Wealth. The higher the profit, the greater the risk. His mental investment is also greater, so the handling fee he asks you to pay is high. You won't suffer any loss."

Although Wang Jinjun knew this truth, he was still far from it. No, next time I see the God of Wealth, I must give him a good beating.
