After Black Lotus became a reborn person, he went completely crazy

There are five back rooms and a special small gatehouse, which are distributed on both sides of the gate and face the street.

If the wall of the back house on the street side is broken through, it can be used directly as a shop.

Or it can be used as a garage, which is also very good. After looking at the outermost entrance of the house, go through the central hanging flower door to reach the inner courtyard.

It is not a siheyuan in the strict sense, and is different from what Xia Ran saw in later generations. It is more like a combination of ancient garden style and siheyuan.

Walking on the corridor, Lao Tongtou introduced the history, design principles and original intentions of the house.

"See? That one over there is a magnolia tree, and that one over there is a pomegranate tree. They are many years old and were planted by me when I was a child."

"Uh-huh."

Old Tong then introduced as he walked, explaining what kind of wood was used for each window and which master was hired to carve it.

After crossing the main road, you will arrive at the main courtyard. It has been well repaired and maintained, and at least it looks very comfortable.

There are five rooms in the main house, as well as east and west wing rooms and ear rooms, with five rooms on each side, so there are quite a lot of houses.

The furniture in the room was similar to the one in the courtyard house we saw this morning. It was all covered with patina and was particularly smooth and shiny.

Old Tong emphasized on introducing his furniture, which were all handed down from his ancestors. Their yard had never been destroyed even during those special years.

The more Old Tong introduced the girl, the more reluctant he became to sell it. But what else could he do? He had been the only son in three generations and he had finally picked a wife who could give birth, hoping to change his family's fortune.

But he accidentally hurt himself when he was young and had a son with such a poor health.

There is not much point in keeping this house. We don't even know who it's for. It's a foregone conclusion that the Tong family will have no descendants.

After so many years, he has figured it out. The living should only take care of their own affairs. As for whether they can live up to their ancestors after death, it is no longer worth considering.

I should exchange the house for money while it is still valuable. I hope my son can live a few more years.

Fortunately, the island is indeed suitable for recuperation. After my son went there, he caught colds less often, ate more, and his complexion became much rosier.

I just hope that my son can really get better when he gets there. Everything else doesn’t matter.

"How big is your total area?"

"More than 680 square meters."

Xia Ran asked: "It doesn't look like it. Your place isn't very big." It's probably less than 300 square meters at most.

"Oh, this is only one part. There is also a water play corridor and a garden next to it. Let's go and take a look."

As they were talking, the three of them passed through a moon gate that was difficult to find if you didn't look carefully, and came to another independent large courtyard.

In the northeast corner is a purple bamboo forest, a winding, naturally flowing lake and a small arch bridge, as well as a rockery and a small fountain.

This yard is quite interesting. It must be the home of a wealthy family.

Seeing that Xia Ran was listening attentively, Old Tongtou did not get impatient and said, "The water in this small lake is still fresh water. There used to be a group of fish in the bottom water pond, but later I didn't have time to take care of them, so I just gave them away. Otherwise, they would be swimming around in the water, very energetic."

The voice was full of nostalgia and attachment.

"Ah."

I just didn’t expect that there were some houses here, a row on the north side and a row on the south side.

This yard is nice. Xia Ran liked it very much after seeing it. It’s just that she is alone here, so it’s a bit empty. It’s also super quiet, and you can hardly hear any other noise. It’s a good yard.

The blue bricks and white walls were not something I was used to at first, but after seeing them for a while I found them to be quite beautiful.

Such quaint and charming courtyards will become increasingly rare as time goes by. In a few decades, they may even become tourist attractions.

Should buy it!

Xia Ran specifically looked at these streets. These streets are truly wealthy and noble areas, and the probability of them being demolished in the future should not be high.

I can afford to demolish a yard like this, but I can't afford to pay for it. I can buy it!

"How much do you plan to sell this house for?" Xia Ran asked directly.

"28," Old Tong was afraid that Xia Ran would think it was too expensive and not worth it, so he explained, "My price is not high. I am comparing it to the price of Old Wu's house over there. His house is not as good as mine, the wood is not as good as mine, and the furniture is not as valuable as mine. Besides, the layout of the courtyard is not as good as mine, but he still wants 28."

"That's just the asking price. What is the asking price? The asking price is the price you want to sell it for. This is just your personal wish and idea, not the market price. This price is too high. Can you tell me the actual price?"

"My house is so big, the asking price is not high."

"The price you're asking is enough to buy four or five two-story shops. If that's not expensive, then what is expensive? With that money, you can buy four or five shops and store them up. You can collect a lot of rent a year. That's a golden goose that lays eggs. If you buy your yard, it will be difficult to rent it out. Not to mention that few people can afford it, even if they can, you still have to worry about others not building the house properly or not taking good care of it."

"You can't say that. I specially asked someone to modify the water supply and drainage of my house. It will be very convenient for life. It cost a lot of money at the beginning. Moreover, we have installed radiators here, so we can heat our house with a boiler in winter."

"The problem is that we can survive the winter without heating here. Heating only increases the cost of living. There is no other advantage except that the maintenance cost is higher. Ordinary people like us don't need it at all, so it doesn't matter whether there is heating or not."

Old Tongtou: "..."

How come the advantages of our own yard are useless in the eyes of the other party?

"Just tell me the price you really want to sell it for. I want to hear it. Don't be pretentious. There's no need to argue about this. You know that the price of this house has increased a lot in recent years and it should be almost at its peak. For you, no matter what price you sell it for, you will definitely make a profit."

This is true. The yard next to his house was transferred to the new owner for more than 1 yuan not many years ago.

The former neighbor, Old Li, sold his properties early and went abroad to live with his relatives. This was because he was not in the country and did not know the market conditions. Otherwise, looking at the current prices, Old Li would regret it to death.

Old Tong asked: "Do you really want it?"

"Yes, I'll take it if the price is right. If it's too expensive, forget it. It's too much of a stretch to pay so much money at once."

“Can I pay right away?”

"As long as the price is right, I can ask relatives and friends to borrow some. If the price is too high, there is no need to do so. It is better to keep the money and use it to make more money. You also know that this is indeed a large amount of money, and not everyone can afford it.

As far as I know, there are quite a few houses for sale in the streets near us, many of which are beautiful small Western-style buildings. To be honest, those houses are more popular with people nowadays. If you continue to keep them, there will be no benefit except that you will spend more energy. "
