Siheyuan: Sending Shazhu into the call center, Yi Gu is useless

"Oh? Looking for a house? Then you've found the right person. I'm an old Beijinger and I know all the houses here very well." The old man said proudly.

“Really? That’s great! I’m thinking of buying a courtyard house recently. Can you give me some advice?” Chen Rufeng asked excitedly.

"Of course, young man, I'm willing to help you. But before we discuss the terms, I need to know who you are and what your name is?" the old man asked seriously.

"My name is Chen Rufeng, nice to meet you, old sir." Chen Rufeng extended his hand sincerely.

"Well, Chen Rufeng, what a nice name. My name is Guo Dapiezi, and I used to run a small shop in this area. Now I'm retired and have nothing to do." Guo Dapiezi took Chen Rufeng's hand, shook it, and smiled.

"Just call me Big Brother. We are old Beijingers. There's no need to be so polite." Guo Dapiezi said friendly.

"Okay, brother, thank you for your willingness to help me." Chen Rufeng said gratefully.

"You're welcome, you're welcome. Come on, let's go to my house and have a cup of tea and chat slowly." Guo Dapiezi smiled and patted Chen Rufeng on the shoulder, and the two walked to the end of the street together.

They sat down in Guo Dapiezi's courtyard, a cup of fragrant tea was placed on the table, and the air was filled with a faint tea aroma.

"Brother, your courtyard is so beautiful. It is exactly the ideal place in my mind." Chen Rufeng exclaimed.

"Haha, young man, you are really good at talking. This is just an ordinary courtyard house, which is definitely not what you want." Guo Dapiezi smiled modestly.

"No, no, no, I'm serious. Brother, your courtyard house is really unique." Chen Rufeng insisted.

"So what kind of courtyard house do you want to buy?" Guo Dapiezi asked curiously.

In Guo Dapiezi's courtyard, Chen Rufeng and Guo Dapiezi sat together, enjoying a quiet afternoon. The scent of tea filled the air, the breeze blew through the courtyard, and the plants in the courtyard swayed, as if welcoming Chen Rufeng's arrival.

"Brother, your courtyard is so unique, it's like a small world." Chen Rufeng said with emotion, looking around in admiration.

Guo Dapiezi smiled and nodded, and said proudly: "Young man, this yard is the result of my hard work over the past few decades. Although it is not big, it is also the result of my hard work."

"I have always longed to have a place of my own. A courtyard house like yours is exactly what I have always dreamed of." Chen Rufeng's eyes sparkled with longing.

After hearing this, Guo Dapiezi shook his head in shame and said, "Young man, don't speak too highly of me. In fact, there are quite a few broken things in my yard, such as the water tank over there has a hole in it, and the threshold has also been in disrepair for many years."

"But I think your yard is very warm and full of home atmosphere." Chen Rufeng said sincerely.

After hearing this, Guo Dapiezi smiled with relief. He sighed, "Young man, what you said makes me feel much better. As I get older, I always feel a little bit self-pitying, thinking that I haven't given my family a good living environment."

"Brother, don't blame yourself too much. You have worked hard all your life, and this yard is what you have built for your family. No matter how big or small it is, it is a warm home." Chen Rufeng's words were full of understanding and comfort.

Guo Dapiezi sighed and was silent for a while, then looked up and said to Chen Rufeng: "Young man, you said you wanted to buy a courtyard house, right?"

“Yes, brother. I have always dreamed of having a home of my own, a quiet and comfortable place where my family can live a better life.” Chen Rufeng said frankly.

Guo Dapiezi nodded and said, "Which area of ​​the house do you like? I can give you some suggestions."

Chen Rufeng thought for a moment and said, "I like the style of the old city, so I want to find a courtyard house here. I heard that the environment of the courtyard house area in the south city is not bad, so I plan to take a look there first."

Guo Dapiezi nodded and said, "South City is indeed a good choice. Most of the courtyard houses there are old-style buildings with unique styles, and the surrounding environment is also more livable. However, you have to pay attention that the housing prices in South City are not low, so you have to be mentally prepared."

"I know, thank you for your reminder. I plan to see if there is a suitable house first, and then make a decision." Chen Rufeng took a deep breath, his heart full of expectations for the future.

"That's good, young man. Since you have this plan, I will show you a way. I have a friend who opened a real estate agency. He is familiar with the housing resources in South City and may be able to help you." Guo Dapiezi said, took out his mobile phone and gave Chen Rufeng a business card.

"Really? Thank you so much, brother!" Chen Rufeng took the business card excitedly and stared at the phone number on it with anticipation.

"You're welcome, young man. We old Beijingers are all about helping each other. I hope you can find your dream courtyard house soon." Guo Dapiezi smiled and patted Chen Rufeng on the shoulder, as if giving him strength.

Chen Rufeng is immersed in his dream of owning a courtyard house. Despite the soaring housing prices in the market, his determination has not diminished at all. He believes that as long as he works hard and perseveres enough, his dream will come true.

However, when he was looking for a house, Chen Rufeng found that the price of courtyard houses on the market was even higher. This made him feel helpless, after all, his funds were limited and he could not compete with those wealthy home buyers. But he did not give up, but worked harder to realize his dream.

At this time, Chen Rufeng learned a piece of news: a courtyard house in the south of the city was being sold at a low price because the owner was in urgent need of funds. Hearing this news, his heart was suddenly filled with hope. He immediately contacted the real estate agency recommended by Guo Dapiezi and prepared to go and see the house.

Chen Rufeng and the real estate agent came to the courtyard. Although the courtyard was a bit old, it still exuded a sense of vicissitudes and history. There was a shabby sign hanging on the gate with the words "For Sale". The agent told Chen Rufeng that this courtyard was left by an old man and was now being sold at a low price because he was in urgent need of funds.

Chen Rufeng walked into the yard and looked around. Although the yard was a little run-down, he felt that it was exactly what he longed for. He imagined that in the future he would renovate it, plant flowers and trees, and give it new vitality.

"This yard looks pretty good, but it's a bit old," Chen Rufeng said to his agent.
