The last disciple who traveled through Medicine King Valley sells goods live
Chapter 99 Naturally stupid
"Since there's no objection to the exterior, let's discuss the interior layout. First, the dining room. Since we're planning to turn the entire east side into a kitchen and dining room, my suggestion is to use retro sliding doors to separate each partition. If we're having a dinner party, we can just use the entire dining room."
If you're planning a private gathering, you can simply split the dining room into two or three. This will make it more convenient to use. The tables are also designed to be combined, allowing them to be separated or joined. As for the restaurant kitchen, I recommend installing new-tech appliances to effectively remove cooking fumes.
Therefore, the kitchen will adopt an integrated ancient and modern model, retaining the stove, but also having modern kitchen utensils Shanshan and Jiang Ming.
Shanshan and Jiang Ningming still nodded, indicating that they had no objections.
Actually, Shanshan felt that Jing Yian was right about the restaurant. If she lived alone, the kitchen wouldn't need to be divided. But with other residents living in the house, it was inevitable that some would stay over for dinner. In that case, it would be better to separate them to avoid the awkwardness of sitting together.
After talking about the kitchen, Jing Yian talked about the layout of the house.
The first floor is where Xiao Leng's grandfather, Qiu Feng, and Wu Yulunbi, also known as Mr. Yu Wen, live.
Although Shanshan didn't know what Mr. Yuwen paid for the right to use the house, she always felt uncomfortable after what happened in the secret room.
Mr. Yuwen probably knew that his affairs had been discovered by them. When Shanshan proposed to buy back the right to use the house, Mr. Yuwen contacted Shanshan in advance and transferred the right to use the house to Yuwen Lun in exchange for providing ancient building materials.
Shanshan had discussed this with Liu Zhecheng at the time and knew that Yuwen Lun, like Jiang Ningming, was the second son whose inheritance rights were abandoned because there was an eldest son in the family.
And he didn't participate in the family business. By doing this, Old Master Yuwen was probably giving his second son a chance. A chance to make a difference, just like Jiang Ningming.
Of course, whether this is actually possible is still unknown.
Shanshan didn't care about the ancient building materials. She felt that Yuwen Lun was quite good in the group. Or rather, Yuwen Lun, like Jiang Ningming, felt like she was of the same kind. Well, in fact, in that big brother group, only the three of them felt that their aura was weaker.
If her family had a bunch of older brothers like this, Shanshan wouldn't be able to contain their aura. So, does this count as banding together for warmth?
In short, the right to use the house is now in Yuwen Lun's hands.
There are three rooms on the west side of the first floor. The first one as you enter the door is Xiao Leng’s grandfather’s house, Qiu Feng’s room is next to Xiao Leng’s, and Yu Wenlun’s is the outermost room.
Considering privacy, each room consists of a bedroom, a living room, a bathroom, and a study. The rooms are integrated, supported only by pillars. The interior layout can then be completely separated by screens, allowing for greater flexibility. Of course, the bathrooms are located in fixed locations, as drainage systems must be considered. Shanshan wisely avoided asking about this technical question, as asking would only make her unable to understand the technical terminology, thus avoiding embarrassment.
According to Shanshan's idea, she planned to live on the third floor, which was the closest to the tea garden. However, going down the stairs would be a little troublesome.
Jing Yian naturally couldn't imagine that Shanshan's health would get better in the future, so in order to make it convenient for her to go up and down the stairs, one of the two opposite curved staircases leading to the second floor was changed into an elevator that could lead directly to the third floor.
In order to maintain the beauty of the entire house, the second floors on the east and west sides will be designed with elevated ceilings. In this way, the original exterior walls of the rooms on both sides of the second floor will be restored to their original small windows, but an attic will be built above the second floor.
In fact, it is equivalent to the original second floor still being as high as before, but the roof of the second floor will be removed to make a flat bottom. Then, on the basis of the flat roof, a small three-story attic will be built.
The second floor is a relatively secluded environment, while the attic is a relatively open space. The attic on the third floor is only two-thirds of the original house area. This way, each room will have a small terrace, allowing people to enjoy the beautiful scenery without being confined to the room.
Jiang Ningming was immediately displeased with the design. His brother had been a step too late in suggesting it, as both the east and west houses had already been booked. Furthermore, Shanshan had also considered the fact that they were two brothers, and of course, Shanshan had some selfish motives in mind, giving the house to the right of the main building to the two brothers.
So, originally, they had four rooms, while others only had two.
But now that Jing Yian had designed their house, they couldn't see the outside scenery except for the small window facing outward. At least the people on the first floor had a courtyard outside, so although they couldn't enjoy the scenery outside, they could still appreciate the beauty of the courtyard in the rain.
Seeing this, Shanshan hurriedly comforted her, "Don't worry, Xiaoning. You can just live on the third floor from now on. You see, the third floor is much bigger overall, so it will definitely be enough."
Jing Yian glanced at Shanshan. It was obvious that he had thought of this house after designing it. In Shanshan's heart, Jiang Ningming was obviously different.
Therefore, the overall interior design of the main building is also very different.
The entire first floor of the main building was uninhabited. The four rooms in the middle of the first floor served as a hall, and the two sides served as storage rooms. Originally, the two sides were planned to be tea rooms, but Jing Yian had other plans, so they were temporarily unused.
The hall between the four rooms originally had a tea room. The first floor remains open to the public in its original style. However, to address heating issues, folding doors and windows were installed throughout. When closed, they occupy the adjacent storage area, but can be opened directly when it gets cold.
"In that case, let's make the second floor the same as the first floor, with two standard rooms in one. This way, if Shanshan has guests coming over, they'll have a place to stay. This is a scenic spot after all, so if Shanshan's fans come over to visit, that'll be fine too."
"So, what about the secret room?"
This is the key point. Jing Yian said, "Now, many people know about the secret room, so my suggestion is to directly tell the public that the secret room has been backfilled.
By then, I will also seal the exit on the second floor.
You can only go down from the third floor. As you can see, the original design of the third floor has an inner attic, which was built for concealment.
There's no need for that now, so I'm planning to align the third floor directly with the second floor below. Also, I know you want your own independent space, and I've studied the terrain. This was originally excavated for escape. So, I'm suggesting that simply backfilling this area will return to its original state.
Then come over and rebuild the courtyard.
In this way, the third floor will be your home in the mansion, and the attic above will be your private space."
That Shanshan was incredulous: "How is this different from tearing down the house and rebuilding it?"
Jing Yian said, "There really isn't any difference. You don't have to worry about the construction costs. Since they're all willing to pay, it's a rare opportunity. I'm afraid there won't be many opportunities like this where so many big bosses collectively invest. Besides, there's nothing worth cherishing about this house itself."
Shanshan and Jiang Ningming were like quails and didn't dare to say anything more.
You know, she was quite shocked when she first saw this house, especially when she stood on a high place and looked down, she saw the courtyard house with an ancient atmosphere below.
The visual shock and the beauty brought by the ancient charm will really make people addicted.
As if knowing what they were thinking, Jing Yian said, "The biggest difference between traditional architecture and Western architecture is that traditional Chinese architecture depends on magnetic fields and orientation.
A person who can design but doesn’t understand Feng Shui will never be a good designer.
This is especially important in China. Come on, if I tell you too much, you won’t understand. Come with me and observe it closely and feel it.”
After saying that, Jing Yian gestured to Shanshan to open the door.
After opening the door, Jing Yian asked the two of them to stand still at the door: "What do you think about what's going on inside?"
That flash was puzzled: "You don't feel anything?"
Jing Yian paused: "Are you looking carefully?"
Jiang Ningming suddenly stepped back in fear: "Then, it looks like someone hanged himself!"
That Shanshan hurried over: "Where, where?"
Following Jiang Ningming's gaze, Shanshan also saw that where the shadows of the houses intersected, it actually looked like someone had hanged himself there.
"Wow, it really looks like that, hahaha."
Jing Yian saw that Shanshan was not afraid at all, and suddenly realized that some people are really naive.
This kind of person is a natural feng shui shield and will not be scared by this kind of magnetic field.
However, what needed to be said still needed to be said. Jing Yian pointed to a place on the second floor and said, "See that bell over there? I think that was the bell used for classes in school."
That flash suddenly realized: "So that shadow was caused by this bell? Oh, right, you kept staring at it when we first got here. Is that why?"
Jing Yian nodded. "Yes. I've already looked around before you came. I can only say that the original designer is truly amazing, and the designer who renovated it is even more extraordinary."
But Shanshan always felt that there was a hint of sarcasm in his words after the last sentence.
"If there wasn't this shadow, the feeling of this door opening would be an inexplicable pressure. But with this shadow here, the original pressure has become eerie. This is the most taboo in ancient buildings, because if traditional buildings are not done well, they will not be grounded, but the ground will be destroyed.
So, many houses look very nice at first glance, but after looking at them for a while, you will start to think that they look like ghost houses, or paper houses burned during festivals.”
Shanshan said she really didn't understand this, but Jiang Ningming had the same feeling.
In fact, this is the influence of human emotions. When you have a fear of this place, your mind will imagine all kinds of horrible things. Jiang Ningming likes to watch horror movies, so his mind has more material. This fear will be even greater.
