The Fiery Era of Siheyuan

Chapter 66, House Completed

Saturday, January 10
After six days of renovation, the house was finally completed.

At this time, Hong An was leading Li Weiguo around to inspect the decoration results of the house.

Looking from the outside, the doors and windows of the house have all been replaced, and the dilapidated feeling of the past is no longer there.

Walking into the house, the room has been repainted and the house looks very clean and bright.

The room of more than 60 square meters is divided by two lattice moon doors on the left and right sides, and is divided into three parts, each of which is almost more than 20 square meters.

There is a small entrance hall at the entrance. On the left hand side is a custom-made shoe cabinet and a shoe-changing stool.

The porch used to be the living room and dining room, but it is still empty, and the tables, chairs and benches have not been moved in yet.

There is a cooking station on the right side of the door. The water has been connected to the house, the sink has been built, and an iron coal stove has been placed. It will be very convenient to wash vegetables and cook in the future. There is no need to go to the courtyard to fetch water.

On the left side of the room is the bedroom. There is a 2.5m×2.2m large bed and two bedside tables in the room.

On the right is the bathroom and lounge. The large bathtub customized by Hong An has also been made, and it is placed against the back wall.

The floors of the room are all covered with new floor tiles. The bathroom where the bathtub is placed is painted with a 3m×2m cement floor. It is also waterproofed and has a special drainage channel that leads directly to the drainage outlet in the corner. Just to facilitate drainage.

The whole room is in a retro style, and the overall look is very unified and coordinated. Even the wash basin next to the door, Hong An made a retro design like a goldfish wash basin.

A lamp hangs from the roof of the three compartments, and all of them are equipped with high-wattage incandescent lamps, which illuminate the living room, bedroom, and lounge very brightly.

The only shortcoming of the house is that there is no toilet, so going to the toilet has to be solved in the space for the time being.

After getting a wife in the future, Li Weiguo plans to change the house, and install a bathroom in the house with a bigger fart, which is really inconvenient and not beautiful.

Then there is the smell in the house.

Although Li Weiguo's house has not been changed much, the newly made doors and windows, lattice moon door, wooden bed and walls, etc., have just been painted.

Although the construction of Hong An's side has been completed, the house is temporarily uninhabitable, so it needs to be ventilated for a few days to dissipate the smell.

After Hong An and others finished the work, they deliberately opened all the doors and windows in the house, and burned a large brazier in each of the three compartments to dispel the moisture and paint smell in the house.

After walking around the room, Li Weiguo nodded with satisfaction and said, "Master Hong is indeed a professional. I am very satisfied with the effect."

Professional is professional, every detail is in place, and his vision is perfectly realized.

When Hong An heard Li Weiguo's praise, he also smiled happily: "It's still Chief Li who has your vision in place. This room is designed in a retro style. When you get a batch of ancient furniture in later, it will be perfect."

Li Weiguo nodded in agreement, 150 yuan is not expensive for the quality and materials of this project, and it costs a lot to buy wood to make doors, windows, furniture, and floor tiles. It's still four people, not many.

After the project is completed, it’s time to pay the bills.

Li Weiguo took out five big black ten from his pocket and handed them directly to Hong An.

Then, he took out four big front doors from his satchel and asked Hong An to share one for each of them.

It's not expensive, three yuan and seven a piece is an extra reward for several masters.

Li Weiguo's generous Hong An knew it and did not refuse. He happily accepted the cash and cigarettes.

After working for six days, he earned 30 yuan in wages. According to the rules, he got 10 yuan, and the rest of the big workers were [-] yuan each.

Food rations and cigarettes cost about seven or eight yuan per person, which is a good income.

After seeing off Hong An, turning off the lights, and locking the door, Li Weiguo put on his satchel, thinking about what to eat tonight, while walking towards the courtyard.

At this moment, the third master Yan Fugui and his wife who were sweeping the floor at the opposite door suddenly approached: "Wei Guo, has your house been renovated?"

Li Weiguo smiled and responded, "Yes, Third Master, the decoration is complete and you can move in in a few days."

The third uncle took a few glances into the house and said with envy: "Oh, this house is so beautifully decorated, it's antique. Your original furniture may not be worthy of the decoration level. Have you found new furniture?"

"Yes, a batch of furniture has been ordered. Is there something wrong with the third master?" Li Weiguo asked doubtfully, what is this old man Yan doing to stop him?
"I'm just saying, new furniture goes well with new decorations. Haha. So what's your plan for these old furniture in your yard?" The third uncle then revealed his purpose.

The third aunt also looked at Li Weiguo expectantly. It turned out that she had planned to take advantage of the old furniture piled up in the courtyard.

Li Weiguo gave the third uncle a meaningful look. Sure enough, Yan Laoxi's name was not in vain. His nose was really sharp and he smelled fishy smell.

Then he teased him: "Third Master, it's a pity that you don't want to be an accountant. The school has delayed you."

The third uncle didn't take his teasing seriously: "I have a little talent, but it's not worth mentioning, hahaha."

Li Weiguo couldn't help but admire his face.

After thinking about it, he said to him: "It's useless for me to keep these furniture. You can also want it. Otherwise, the brazier in my house will have to be burned for a few days. If the third aunt is free, she will help her sooner or later." I added charcoal once to remove the moisture, and the charcoal was in the house.

In addition, when I move back to the house in a few days, you asked Yan Xiecheng and the others to help me move the furniture.After moving, take whichever piece of old furniture you like.How do you two feel? "

Hearing what he said, the third master and the third mother were overjoyed immediately, and took whatever they liked, didn't they just want them all, and quickly agreed: "Okay, no problem."

Seeing that the two nodded in agreement, Li Weiguo handed over the key to the door.

The third master took the key, patted his chest and promised: "Don't worry, your third mother will watch the brazier for you these few days. Tell me in advance when you move, and I will ask Xie Cheng and his brothers to move it for you, and I promise to do it for you." alright."

These old furniture are all in good condition, but they are a bit worn out, and they cost dozens of yuan to buy them all. You can get them just by opening your mouth.

Now the third master and his wife are laughing from ear to ear.

After Li Weiguo left, the third uncle turned around and raised his eyebrows at the third aunt: "See, it's good to have a good relationship with Chief Li. If someone misses something, it's enough for us. To live in this life, we have to learn to calculate. .”

The third mother agreed with her face: "Yes, you are still smart, old man. You can't eat poorly, you can wear endlessly, and you will suffer poorly if you can't figure it out."

"Hey, that's right. I already have three points to pass it on, hahaha." The third uncle said with a smile.
