Siheyuan: I just want to live

After eating in the message room, Chen Feng started his slacking off again. It was impossible for him to work seriously anyway, so just being happy was enough.

Chen Feng took out a novel from the drawer of the table and started reading. As he was reading, Chen Feng fell asleep.

When Li Guotao was at work, he saw Chen Feng still looked half dead. He was too lazy to pay attention to Chen Feng, turned his head away from him, and pretended not to see him.

After two days of unpleasant working hours, the scrap yard was closed again.

We only have one day off for the Dragon Boat Festival, and the benefits for the Dragon Boat Festival are just a few rice dumplings and some candies. The company is really getting more and more stingy.

After Chen Feng received the benefits, he returned to his room and threw the food into the space to keep it fresh so that he could eat it whenever he remembered.

Sun Xiaojuan did not come to see him the night before the Dragon Boat Festival, and Chen Feng was happy about it.

After resting for a night, Chen Feng rode his bicycle out of Dongzhimen and headed towards Miyun Huairou.

Seeing a small river that had not yet dried up, Chen Feng stopped riding. He stopped the bicycle and saw that there was no one around, so he put the bicycle into the space.

Then he began to walk upstream along the bank of the creek. As he walked, Chen Feng used his spatial ability to collect silt from the bottom of the river in the middle of the creek.

Chen Feng did not dig any further. In order to prevent people from noticing that the river water level had obviously dropped, he simply put the 20 to 30 kilograms of silt on the surface into the space.

In this way, Chen Feng walked straight along the river bank for a whole morning and scraped the ground for a whole morning.

It was not until noon that Chen Feng felt that he had done enough and stopped scraping the ground.

At this time, Chen Feng was so tired and hungry that he couldn't walk anymore. So he sat down by the river, peeled two rice dumplings and ate them to replenish his strength.

After eating the rice dumplings, Chen Feng did not stay any longer and walked back along the river bank in the direction he came from.

After walking for a long time, Chen Feng returned to the road again, changed his bicycle and continued to ride to the scrap yard. When he returned to the scrap yard, it was already past five in the afternoon.

After dinner, I locked the door of the scrap yard and entered the space.

After entering the space, Chen Feng controlled the silt he had collected today and spread it in many layers above the space, and then began to dry it.

The silt is now quite wet and has poor air permeability. Chen Feng plans to dry it and then break it up so that it will be easier to use.

After doing all this, Chen Feng left the space.

Looking at the sky that was gradually getting darker, Chen Feng took out a pen, practiced calligraphy for a while, and then went to bed.

Time passed quickly, and it was the end of the month again. During this period, Sun Xiaojuan stayed at the scrap yard twice, but Chen Feng didn't care much about it.

If she is willing to come, Chen Feng will be happy to welcome her. If she is not willing to come, Chen Feng will not care much. Everything depends on her wishes, and Chen Feng will not force her to come and accompany him every day.

After more than a month of repair, Chen Feng's house was finally completed.

On Friday, the 26th, Master Lei came to the scrap yard to inform Chen Feng that the house had been repaired and could be inspected.

So Chen Feng and Master Lei made an appointment to go back to the courtyard together after get off work at noon to look at the house.

After getting off work at noon, Chen Feng rode his bicycle back to the courtyard. After getting off the bicycle at the gate, Chen Feng pushed the bicycle into the yard.

When he arrived at the backyard, he found that Master Lei was already waiting for Chen Feng at the door of his house.

When he saw Chen Feng enter the backyard, he immediately took a few steps forward and greeted Chen Feng.

Then he said to Chen Feng enthusiastically, "Boss, you're here! I thought I had to wait a little longer!"

Chen Feng pushed the cart closer, then said to Master Lei with a smile, "I rushed over right after work. If you check the house earlier, I can come back and live here earlier!"

Master Lei also smiled and said, "Boss, that's what you said!"

Chen Feng parked his bicycle and said to Master Lei, "Master Lei, let's not talk anymore. Let's look at the house first?"

"Well, then I'll listen to you, Boss! Let's look at the house first. Come this way, Boss!"

Master Lei kept agreeing and guided Chen Feng into the house.

As soon as we entered the house, Master Lei began to introduce, "The net height of the first floor is three meters and one meter, and the inner walls are all painted with lime. The floor is paved with gold bricks, which are the same as those in the Hall of Supreme Harmony in the Imperial Palace."

After hearing Master Lei's introduction, Chen Feng looked down. The ground was indeed paved with large square bricks, not cement.

Chen Feng nodded, indicating that he had no objection. Master Lei saw that Chen Feng had no objection, so he continued to introduce him.

"It is divided into two guest rooms, north and south. There is nothing much to say about them. The kitchen and stairs are on the north side, and the stairs have been converted into a bathroom."

"I asked someone to get a flush toilet in the bathroom, and I installed it for you. I also built a sink in the kitchen, so you don't have to leave the house to wash vegetables and dishes."

After hearing what he said, Chen Feng went into the kitchen and bathroom to check one by one, and found that it was exactly as Master Lei said.

Moreover, a pool was built in the bathroom, and a wall cabinet was built on which some toiletries could be placed. This made Chen Feng very satisfied!

After looking at the first floor, Master Lei took Chen Feng to the second floor.

When we got to the second floor, Master Lei continued to introduce, "The net height of the east and west walls on the second floor is 2.2 meters. Adding the roof ridge, the interior doesn't feel too low! The ground is built with floor slabs, which is very solid!"

"The south side is the master bedroom, and there is a small room next to the stairs on the north side. You can use it as a study, or you can let your children live there when you have more children in the future!"

When he got to the second floor, Chen Feng just took a casual look. There was no furniture and nothing good to see.

The floor of Chen Feng's second floor was made of cement, so he asked Master Lei, "Master Lei, why isn't the second floor paved with gold bricks like the first floor?"

Master Lei saw Chen Feng asking, so he smiled and said, "Boss, you don't know! The second floor is already low, wouldn't it be even lower if you laid the gold bricks? That's why I didn't lay them for you! But! Boss, look up!"

Chen Feng looked up when he heard this. Master Lei pointed at the beams and said, "Boss, I have replaced all the 33 beams in these three rooms with red sandalwood. I guarantee that the beams will never break for the rest of your life!"

Chen Feng looked at the beams that were more than 20 centimeters thick. He didn't care how much it cost now. Instead, he was thinking about how much he could sell it for if he dismantled the beams after the opening of the house!

Chen Feng looked at it for a while, then turned his head back and said to Master Lei, "Master Lei, I am very satisfied with the renovation of this house. How much do I have to pay you in total?"

When Master Lei saw Chen Feng said he was satisfied, he immediately smiled. Then he said happily:

"This house, including materials and labor, cost a total of 3,580 yuan. You, the boss, have already given me 1,000 yuan, and you still need to pay me 2,580 yuan!"

Perhaps because he was afraid that Chen Feng would say that he had cheated him, Master Lei added, "Only the gold bricks, beams, toilets, and floor slabs were more expensive. The labor and other materials, combined, only cost a little over 500."

Seeing him say that, Chen Feng also said, "I don't think it's too much money, I'll give you the money right away!"

Then Chen Feng took out three stacks of money from his schoolbag. He gave two stacks to Master Lei first, and then said he would give him six hundred.

Master Lei took the money and began to count it. After he finished speaking, he took out twenty and said to Chen Feng, "Boss, you gave me too much money!"

Chen Feng said to Master Lei, "I am very satisfied with the house repair. I will give you an extra twenty. Please treat the masters to a meal for me and say thank you for your hard work! I will come to you for house repair work in the future!"

Upon hearing this, Master Lei put all the money into his pocket, then clasped his fists towards Chen Feng and said, "Boss, you are so kind. I am here with my brothers to thank you first!"

After that, Master Lei took out the key from his pocket, handed it to Chen Feng, and then said, "Boss, this is the key to your room, I'm giving it back to you now!"

Chen Feng took the key from Master Lei, and heard Master Lei say, "Boss, if everything is fine, then I will go back?"

Chen Feng nodded and said, "Well, it's basically okay now."

Master Lei heard Chen Feng say this, so he said, "Since there is no problem, I will leave first. If you have any problems with the house in the future, please come to me."

"Okay! I'll take you there!"

Chen Feng escorted Master Lei out of the courtyard gate. As soon as Master Lei walked out of the room, he clasped his fists to Chen Feng and said, "Boss, please stay! I can go on my own!"

Only then did Chen Feng not see him off again, but said to Master Lei, "Master Lei, take care, I won't see you off!"

Master Lei cupped his fist again, then turned and left.

After Master Lei left, Chen Feng returned home and took a good look around the room.

First of all, I won’t mention what Master Lei has said, the front door of his house made of neem tree was replaced by elm wood by Master Lei. The other doors in the house are also made of elm wood.

In this way, the door of Chen Feng's house will be better protected. Even if someone breaks the door violently, it will give Chen Feng more opportunities to react.

There are holes in each room for installing the heating pipes in winter, so Chen Feng doesn't have to drill additional holes.

Chen Feng was very satisfied with the whole house, except that the price was a bit expensive, but it was acceptable.

After walking around, Chen Feng locked the door and left the courtyard. He did not move back immediately, he would wait two days.

Chen Feng no longer wants his current furniture, so he plans to buy another set of furniture. Chen Feng plans to go to the trust store to see if there are any better furniture.

If you have one, buy yourself a set. If you don’t have one, just make one at random.

But after seeing that there were only a pitiful two thousand yuan in the space, Chen Feng gave up the idea of ​​buying furniture now.

He raised his wrist and checked the time, and found that it was still early. So Chen Feng rode his bicycle to the steel mill in the east of the city.

It was already the end of the month, and it was time to fulfill the promise made to Section Chief Hou last month. If Chen Feng did not notify Section Chief Hou again, Section Chief Hou would probably not be able to help but come to the scrap yard to find him.
