Chapter 0288 – The Great Mansion (II)
“You found a house so quickly?”
It was only yesterday that this was talked about on the phone. Today is actually done, Zhuang Rui apparently has not yet recognized the energy of these government officials who are mixed in Beijing, a little shocked to receive the document bag, opened and flipped through it.
Beijing city courtyard houses, say more really not a lot, years of demolition and relocation to make its number greatly reduced, but say less, but also retained a lot of the government in the first few years, the four nine city courtyard houses, divided out of more than forty historical and cultural protection zone, are preserved as a cultural heritage.
Thirty of these reserves are located in the inner city, that is, in ancient times, the place where the princes and generals lived, around the Forbidden City, the location is considered better, these courtyards are protected by the policy, in the absence of extremely special circumstances, generally will not be demolished.
More than forty hutong area, stayed in the old mansion really can not be counted less, plus there is Ouyang Jun such as sitting on the ground in the tiger, so that Zhuang Rui want to buy a set of courtyard house. It is not a difficult thing.
However, Zhuang Rui before also inquired about the situation of the courtyard in the capital, his requirements are relatively high, like the old man as only a courtyard of the small courtyard, Zhuang Rui is not to see, he wants to be before and after a few courtyards composed of composite courtyard, that is, in the past, the rich and powerful people live in.
Ordinary small courtyard, including a north-facing main room, plus east and west rooms together, forming such a courtyard, relatively simple, is now the most common courtyard, like the ancient masters live.
In addition, there is a courtyard in the courtyard wall, the curved moon gate connects the front and back of the two courtyards, in the courtyard of the main room and compartments than the small quadrangle naturally more than double, in ancient times, are generally more solid family people live.
And Zhuang Rui to buy, but the kind of large courtyard, in ancient times are generally for the residence of dignitaries, before and after the courtyard more than a few, in the architectural pattern is extremely elaborate, are generally composite courtyard, that is, by more than one courtyard to the depth of the connected.
Large courtyard courtyard is very much, there are front yard, back yard, east yard, west yard, main yard, side yard, cross yard, study yard, roundhouse yard, horse number, one into, two into, three into …… and so on, the yard are copied corridor connecting each place, covers an area of great.
It is to be like the “mansion” that TV series where Bai Laoqi lives, a mansion with a rockery and a garden.
Zhuang Rui wanted such a place. He wanted his mother to live in Beijing for a few years, a larger place to raise flowers and plants, birds and fish, it is much more cost-effective than buying a high-rise elevator building, or a villa in the suburbs.
Zhuang Rui this person for food and clothing requirements are not very high, but for the residence of the environment is very picky, before is not the conditions, and even in Zhonghai shack area a few square meters in the rental house also squeezed, but now have money, he is the first to consider, is the housing, which in fact, is also a kind of disguised as an investment.
Half a year ago, Zhuang Rui spent a million in Zhonghai to buy that set of houses, now has risen to one million eight hundred thousand, and the price of housing is still rising, so spend the money on the house, one to live in the comfort, the second can also value-added, so Zhuang Rui for the purchase of the house, that is absolutely willing to spend money.
Only the size of the courtyard is different, the price is also a world of difference, small and medium-sized courtyard is generally 1 to 2 million square meters. There are a few million will be able to eat down a set, but the large courtyard, the price will be much more expensive, and the number is very small, to know, like this kind of construction of the rich, but not a few.
Zhuang Rui carefully looked at, Ouyang Jun brought the information, a total of eight locations scattered around the capital courtyard, the information in the courtyard pattern, location, and even the plane sketch are very detailed.
One of the largest quadrangle, covers an area of more than 5,000 square meters, which is simply a small manor, but the price is also incredibly high, need two hundred million yuan, to Zhuang Rui’s current wealth, but it is unable to take it down.
“Fourth brother, this government house is also put up for auction?”
These sets of yards are real estate agents on behalf of the sale, some are hung in the hands of the auction company, there are two, but is attributed to the government agencies, which makes Zhuang Rui somewhat puzzled.
“Where was there any government ah! It is not after the liberation of some departments as an office, and later on the confusion of belonging to that unit, and now the government agencies are unified office, so these courtyards are empty, but they do not intend to sell. I’ll bring it to you first and take a look at it.”
Ouyang Jun since he can bring the information, certainly have a certainty in mind, to say that some ordinary businessmen, Ouyang Jun may also be difficult to use the power to pressure people, but for the government departments, the energy of these people can be shown, and again, this is not their own house, those who are guilty of going to offend Ouyang Jun it!
“This price is also too expensive, fancy also need to have the money to buy before ah!” Zhuang Rui pointed at the set of more than 5,000 square meters of four houses, and smiled bitterly.
“Hm? You’re still short of money, isn’t that jade mine a golden egg?”
“Fourth brother, that mine has only been mined for a few days, where can I see money so quickly!”
Zhuang Rui directly jumped over the set of large courtyard, continue to look down, just now he said, more than 5,000 square meters is too big point, on their mother and son two people live, a little too empty.
“Zhuang Rui, I’m here, wow, the white lion. It’s been a long time.”
Zhuang Rui, who was reading the information, heard the voice of Miao Fei Fei, looked up, Officer Miao was already running to the side of the white lion, combing the hair on the white lion with his hand, the white lion opened his eyes and saw that it was an acquaintance, lazily lying on the ground, squinting his eyes and enjoying himself comfortably.
Miao Fei Fei’s behavior is to see the Ouyang Jun envy, said to Zhuang Rui: “Older brother, you give it a word, let me also touch into it?”
Just before Zhuang Rui replied. The white lion opened its eyes and let out a low roar at Ouyang Jun, frightening Ouyang Jun and waving his hands, shouting under his breath, “Come on, come on, I’m not going to touch it yet.”
“Zhuang Rui, here, this is the first time I’m begging for a personal favor!” Miao Fei Fei said as she took out a green leather document from her bag and threw it to Zhuang Rui, but it was snatched by Ouyang Jun who was sitting close by.
“City dog license?”
Ouyang Jun saw the name of the document, the eyes then look to Zhuang Rui and Miao Feifei when, it becomes a little odd, he but know, this appearance of gentle and lovely Miao Feifei, inside is a female tyrannosaurus, and for people with an excessive sense of justice, have never heard of her to private people to do things it!
“Adultery, there must be adultery.”
Seeing the tone of Miao Fei Fei and Zhuang Rui’s speech, Ouyang Jun also admired Zhuang Rui, his own little old brother is really deep! He was actually able to put this little chili pepper in her place.
But Zhuang Rui’s mind this will be in the hands of the information, head did not lift said: “Fifi, turn around to invite you to eat a big meal.”
“Do not you please eat, the day after tomorrow I rest, or you accompany me to stroll Panjiayuan it? If we can find another treasure, we’ll have earned it.”
Miao Fei Fei wasn’t very interested in shopping for clothes or anything else, but she was very impressed with the experience of strolling through the antique market in Zhonghai last time.
“The day after tomorrow?”
Zhuang Rui glanced at the information in his hand, turned his face to Ouyang Jun and asked, “Fourth brother, I’m looking at two courtyards, can I see the houses and go there during the day tomorrow?”
“Which two?”
Ouyang Jun saw the photos that Zhuang Rui pointed to, nodded and said, “OK, this one is a house in Xuanwu District, previously used as a street office, there is another one that the owner went abroad and hung it up in the auction company, tomorrow morning I will drive and pull you. Let’s go take a look.”
“Well, Fifi, there’s time the day after tomorrow, but you can’t wear a police uniform to go shopping!”
Places like the antique market had a wide variety of origins for their goods, and there were quite a few objects that were dumped out, so no matter if it was someone who opened a store or set up a stall, they were all very leery of the police.
“Zhuang Rui, you’re buying a house again? I’m also going tomorrow.”
Miao Fei Fei let go of the white lion and sat beside Zhuang Rui, very nonchalantly took the stack of information from his hand and flipped through it, her actions made Ouyang Jun think more and more that the two of them had an adulterous relationship, and in his heart, he was pondering whether to go back and give a word to his old man, if the two families could be united in marriage, it would be a great thing.
Zhuang Rui heard Miao Fei Fei also want to go, some strange asked: “You do not still have to work tomorrow? The criminal police force is so idle? By the way, aren’t you still a deputy captain?”
After Miao Feifei transferred back to Beijing from Zhonghai, she entered the XX district precinct criminal police brigade as a deputy brigade commander, due to the fact that the 49th city is a municipality directly under the central government, the level is a bit higher than the provincial capital city, so now it is already a deputy division, if it is put into a prefecture-level city, then it can be a precinct chief.
Zhuang Rui’s words do not know what touched Miao Fei Fei, Miao police officer eyes glared, said fiercely: “You care whether I’m busy ah! Don’t want me to follow even if.”
In fact, Zhuang Rui does not understand the situation of police officer Miao, although went down to the gold-plated, level up, but now still in the gold-plated stage, the fastest public security system will be the number of the criminal police team, in the precinct to stay for another two years, can be justified to mention as a department, when the development of the space will be even greater.
But Miao Fei Fei’s family can not let her all day with a bunch of big men to squat to get people, so Miao Fei Fei this deputy captain’s authority, is responsible for logistics and file management, and these jobs originally have a person in charge of, is that she is now basically not much to do at work.
“Okay, then we’ll go together tomorrow! Fourth brother, I’d better stay at your house at night!”
Zhuang Rui looked at the white lion under his feet, wanting to bring this big guy into the hotel, it is estimated that it is unlikely, at night it is better to go to my brother-in-law’s house to stay.
“Zhuang Rui, what exactly is the relationship between you two?”
Hearing that Zhuang Rui was going to stay at Ouyang Jun’s house, Officer Miao’s face showed a hint of suspicion.
