Traveling through 70's wine

The three of them ate and chatted, and when they talked about Yang Shaojun's work, Wen Qing asked: "Brother Yang, which industries do you think are easy to make money in?"

Yang Shaojun put down his chopsticks and said, "Nowadays, all industries are booming and you can make money in any industry, but I think we should proceed from reality and make good use of our own resources.

I majored in electronics, and in my spare time I helped people repair radios and televisions, and helped the school translate some professional articles from foreign professional magazines, earning 5 to 60 yuan a month. "

Wen Qing agreed with his point of view and asked again: "I heard that there are computers abroad that can calculate faster and can also be used for mechanical design. Do you know?"

Yang Shaojun said: "my country began to study computer technology in the 1973s. In 150, Pingjing University successfully developed a model numbered , and later developed a compatible machine for foreign computers.

Now China is able to produce computers and their related large-scale integrated circuits and memory. Last year, a microcomputer exchange meeting was held in Qincheng. It is said that more than 60 manufacturers from all over the country participated in the exhibition. There should be many factories in China that can produce computers. "

After taking a sip of tea, he continued, "Most of these computers are used in industrial production and scientific research, and their prices are very high."

Wen Qing couldn't remember when home computers appeared and stopped talking.

The three of them turned the topic to buying a house. After discussing for a long time, Zhu Hongying decided to buy a house in the city. The two of them did not have much money, so they could only buy one room or a small apartment first.

Wen Qing agreed to help them find out immediately. Yang Shaojun and Zhu Hongying planned to travel around the city during the holiday and look for houses.

After dinner, Wen Qing took the three of them to visit Erxia Village.

Zhu Hongying and Yang Shaojun were both educated youth who went to the countryside. They were very familiar with the rural scenery. Looking at the long-lost pastoral scenery, they were in a very good mood and told Wen Qing about their experiences in the countryside.

Wen Qing took the three of them to Xiaoya Mountain behind the village. In the spring, after she contracted part of the forest on Xiaoya Mountain, she transplanted thirty peach trees that had been planted for more than five years from the space. They bore fruit the same year they were planted, and now there were many pink and white peaches hanging on the trees.

Mingli had never seen peaches on the tree, so Wen Qing took her to pick a lot of them and asked Zhu Hongying to pack them up and take them away. After dinner, the family said goodbye happily.

Speaking of finding a house for Zhu Hongying, Wen Qing remembered the decoration of her own house in the courtyard. She had gone to see it when she had just had the holiday. Now she has returned from Jiangnan, and more than 20 days have passed. It should be almost completed.

Wen Qing got up early the next day, had breakfast, and rode her bicycle to Huashuijing Hutong.

The yard gate was closed. She opened it and went in. Sure enough, the decoration had been completed.

The whole yard looked brand new, with snow-white walls, blue bricks and black tiles. The yard was tidy, the doors and windows were all replaced with new ones, and the ground was paved with bluestone slabs. There was only a tall, straight ginkgo tree left in the yard.

Wen Qing opened the door and saw snow-white walls. The room was empty. She took out a set of Ming-style furniture from the space and placed it in the study.

This set of Ming-style furniture includes a desk, a bookcase, and two armchairs, which she collected from commission shops and scrap yards one after another. After cleaning and repairing, they were varnished. The furniture has no complicated patterns, and the new varnish makes them look simple, cute, low-key and elegant.

Wen Qing doesn't plan to move in for the time being, so she has only decorated the study room. She put a sofa in the study room so that she can live there temporarily if necessary.

A kitchen and a bathroom were built on the west side of the yard. Although the stove, cabinets and shower facilities were simple, they were all arranged according to Wen Qing's design drawings. Wen Qing was very satisfied.

Wen Qing paid 4000 yuan to Lao Hu, which was more than the budget at the time, but also reasonable. Master Hu asked, "Xiao Wen, do you want to repair other courtyards?"

Wen Qing hesitated for a moment. The second courtyard was too dilapidated. If it was not repaired, it would be a complete ruin. If it was repaired, it would almost need to be rebuilt. Wen Qing did not hide her concerns from him and added, "Master Hu, if the second courtyard is rebuilt, the workload will be relatively large and a lot of materials will be needed. Do you have so many materials?"

Master Hu said, "I need to see it in person to know how much it costs."

Wen Qing said, "Don't worry, I'll take you over when it's cooler."

Wen Qing recalled that when she was preparing to build the courtyard, Master Hu had also said that building a house would require steel bars, cement, water pipes, glass, electrical wires, bricks and tiles, wood, etc. At the time, she looked everywhere and asked Manager Fu of the construction hardware store for help. She also went to the scrap yard to collect some scrap steel and water pipes. She used part of them to build the courtyard and put the rest in the space.

The second courtyard needed more things, and there were probably not enough things in the space. The goods on the market were in short supply, so she had to find connections to buy them.

Then she went to the courtyard by the Yulin Lake, found the key, unlocked the door, pushed open the creaking wooden door, walked around the screen wall, and found that the courtyard was even more dilapidated.

The main door in the middle was locked, but the window was half collapsed and hung diagonally on the window frame. The weeds on the ground were taller than her waist, and leaves were floating in the puddles in the yard.

When I opened the door of the room, I saw some photos on the wall. When I bought the house, I heard that the owner's surname was Mo, and that the couple passed away at the same time. The two middle-aged people in suits and cheongsams with bright smiles in the photo must be them.

Wen Qing took down the photo frames one by one. The bookcase in the room was already crumbling, and the wooden bed had one leg broken and was tilted on the ground. There were also two chairs, some books and papers soaked by rain on the ground, and dust all over the floor. The room seemed to have been swept, and no one knew why no one occupied it.

She looked at the five main rooms one by one. The two middle rooms were connected to form a living room, there was a study on the east side, and two bedrooms on the west side. The furniture in the rooms was all tattered.

Wen Qing put away the paintings, photos, photo frames on the wall, and the furniture in the house, took out a broom and cleaned the house. She found that the house was not as bad as she had imagined. The roof and the walls of the room were basically intact. Only the roof of one room was leaking and was seriously damaged.

There were four bookcases reaching the ceiling in the study. After she put away the bookcases, she found a dent in the floor. She reached in and lifted it up. Sure enough, she lifted up a piece of floor and saw a dark hole underneath.

Wen Qing took out a flashlight from the space, locked the courtyard door from the inside, and moved a large stone to prop up the wooden door.

After coming back, I turned on the flashlight and shone it inside. There was a basement below. I walked down the stairs and found a secret room of more than 40 square meters with some wooden boxes inside.

Wen Qing looked at it carefully with the light of the flashlight. The wooden box was quite exquisite. Not only was it decorated with patterns, but the four corners and the lock were also covered with copper sheets. However, it was covered with rust, and the wooden box was locked with a padlock.

Wen Qing counted them and found there were six boxes in total. She twisted the lock hard and opened the lid. Inside was a box of clothes. It felt very soft, probably silk. She closed the lid.

She didn't check the other boxes and put all of them into the space.

Wen Qing carefully observed the walls and the ground and found that one wall made a hollow sound when she knocked on it. She shone a flashlight on the wall and found that all four walls were made of blue bricks. Wen Qing knocked on each brick and found that there was something strange about several bricks close to the ground. She pushed hard but couldn't move them open. She squatted down and touched them carefully but could not see anything unusual.
