My barrage in the wild can be withdrawn

Chapter 392 Old House

at this time.

A woman ran out from inside.

The girl was wearing a black silk uniform, a pair of black-rimmed glasses, and a pair of red high heels.

The other party has a graceful figure, not like a salesperson at all, but more like a personal secretary of an old director.

"I'm sorry, Brother Chen, I didn't notice this place inside, I didn't expect you to come so soon."

When the woman spoke, bursts of fragrance emanated from her body.

Zhou Chen knew that the other party must have been well-dressed, but she seemed to have guessed her age wrong.

These can be seen from the surprised eyes of the other party when they first met.

"Oh no, I just arrived too."

Zhou Chen told the truth.

"I didn't expect you to be so young... Oh, by the way, my name is Hu Xinran. You can call me Xiaohu or Xinran."

The woman said with a smile.

"Okay, oh, by the way, Hu, are we going to see an old bungalow today?"

Zhou Chen questioned.

"Isn't your first intention an old bungalow?"

Hu Xinran asked.

"That's right, I just didn't expect there to be old bungalows here."

Zhou Chen looked at the surrounding villas and said slowly.

"You don't know, this old bungalow was built in the early 20th century, more than 80 years ago."

Hu Xinran introduced the history of the house while walking.

The two walked through the villa area and stood at the end of Yong Road.

Hu Xinran pointed to a quaint building in the distance, and said with a smile, "Mr. Zhou, we are here."

The old bungalows in Zhonghai are the most classic residences in Zhonghai. Each building bears a legendary story of the year. The value contained in the old bungalows cannot be built with bricks and tiles.

Zhou Chen is from Zhonghai, so he naturally has a complex for old bungalows in his heart.

As soon as the two arrived, Zhou Chen was attracted by the three words on the door.

"Chen mansion!"

He couldn't help saying.

Seeing this, Hu Xinran smiled slightly, "That's right, the reason why I haven't mentioned the name of this old bungalow to you is to give you a surprise."

She stretched out her hand to touch the hot gold writing on the black iron gate, and then said: "It's a coincidence, although this Chen and your Chen are not the same word, but they have the same pronunciation. These words have a history of more than 80 years. .”

Zhou Chen looked at the three types of pens and dragons and snakes in front of him, and couldn't help feeling: "It really is magnificent, not simple."

"Mr. Zhou really has good eyesight. It is said that Mr. Yu mentioned these words himself."

Hu Xinran responded.

"Old Yu?" Zhou Chen nodded slightly, and then his pupils shrank, "Old Yu? Could it be Yu Youren!"

Hearing this, it was Hu Xinran's turn to be surprised.

She looked at Zhou Chen with a look of admiration in her eyes, "I didn't expect Mr. Zhou to be so knowledgeable at such a young age."

Hu Xinran was going to show off, but he didn't expect the other party to guess it directly.

"It's not erudition, it's just some coincidence."

Staring at Zhou Chen, his mind was full of thoughts, "Mr. Yu founded the Standard Cursive Script Club in Zhonghai in 1932. Based on the principles of easy to read, easy to write, accurate, and beautiful, he sorted out, researched and promoted cursive script, and organized it into a system of representative symbols of cursive script. The collection of characters was compiled into "Standard Cursive Script Thousand Characters", which has far-reaching influence and is still being reprinted today, and Mr. Yu is also known as the 'Contemporary Cursive Sage'."

Touching the gold-plated metal characters, Zhou Chen's thoughts drifted away, ""Standard Cursive Script Thousand-Character Essay" plus the title and ending has a total of 1027 characters, divided into 33 pages, and each page of the main text has 8 sentences and 32 characters."

He paused, his eyes dodged a little, "It's ridiculous to say, when I was young, I hated it very much."

"But everything can't go back..."

Zhou Chen breathed a sigh of relief and withdrew his thoughts.

After hearing these words, Hu Xinran yearned even more for the tall and handsome man in front of him.

This man has good looks, connotation, style, and he is so rich.

Just the perfect boyfriend.

Now she wants to take this man home and tell her parents who are constantly urging her to get married that this is my husband.

"Miss Hu, don't we go in?"

Seeing the other party blankly, Zhou Chen suggested.

"Oh, come in, I'll call the door."

But as soon as Hu Xinran came to the gate, the thick black iron gate opened automatically.

"Butler Wu should have seen us."

Hu Xinran pointed to the surveillance cameras on both sides of the gate and said awkwardly: "There are cameras all around the Chen mansion."

She held the door steady, "Mr. Zhou, please..."

This time-washed building has also become fashionable with the blessing of modern technology.

After entering the courtyard, there is a large garden in front of you, with red bricks and green trees, which is particularly charming.

"The plane trees planted in the courtyard are very beautiful and charming. It is said that they were planted by the owner of the old bungalow 80 years ago..."

Hu Xinran talked eloquently.

But what she didn't expect was that Zhou Chen stopped her before she finished speaking.

"Miss Hu's information should be somewhat discrepant..."

Zhou Chen looked at the tall tree more than ten meters high, and said slowly.

Hu Xinran was a little confused, "In and out? What in and out?"

"French sycamore is also called three-ball sycamore, and this forest should be Hainan sycamore."

"Three what ball?"

Hu Xinran didn't understand at all. She took out her tablet and looked at the information again, and said firmly: "I remember correctly, this is the French sycamore."

Seeing that the other party did not give up, Zhou Chen had no choice but to teach her a lesson.

"Sycamore is a large deciduous tree belonging to the Platanus genus, and it is also the parent of Platanus biscuits. It can reach a height of 30 meters. It is a world-renowned excellent shade tree and street tree, known as the "King of Street Trees."

"The crown of this tree is broad and bell-shaped, the dry bark is gray-brown to gray-white, peeling off in thin flakes, the young branches and young leaves are densely covered with brown star-shaped hairs, the leaves are palmately 5-7 lobed, deeply lobed to the middle, and the lobes are longer than wide. Leaf base broadly cuneate or truncate, with teeth on leaf margin."

"Plananus three-ball likes light, likes humid and warm climates, is more cold-resistant, and has no strict requirements on soil, but it is suitable for growth in slightly acidic or neutral, well-drained soils. Although slightly alkaline soils can grow, they are prone to yellowing."

"Moreover, the root distribution of this tree species is relatively shallow, and it is vulnerable to damage and inversion during typhoons. It has a strong ability to resist air pollution, and its leaves can absorb toxic gases and stagnate dust."

"The sycamore tree has a tall trunk, lush branches and leaves, rapid growth, strong adaptability, easy survival, resistance to pruning, and dust resistance, so it is widely planted as a tree species for street greening, and is also a tree species for fast-growing wood. It is harmful to toxic gases such as sulfur dioxide and chlorine. Strong resistance."

After finishing everything, Zhou Chen pointed to the tallest tree in the courtyard and said with a smile, "Do you think that tree is 30 meters tall?"

Hu Xinran is completely dumbfounded now.

She has been a real estate agent for so long, and this is the first time she has encountered such a situation.

"The inner one... probably not."

Hu Xinran said in embarrassment.

Although she believed in the information in her hand, the way the other party spoke just now also caused waves in her heart.

"Aren't these sycamores?"

Hu Xinran asked suspiciously.

"These are sycamores, but the French sycamores you are talking about are not sycamores."

Zhou Chen responded.

"Ah?" Hu Xinran felt his brain buzzing, and he was about to boil, "Is that right..."

She was about to break down.

"The tree planted here is a sycamore, but it is not a French sycamore, but a Hainan sycamore."

Hu Xinran grinned and said with an embarrassed expression, "Oh, I understand when you say that, it means that they are not imported quilts."

Hearing that, Zhou Chen shook his head again.

"It seems that you still don't understand."

Hu Xinran was somewhat skeptical about life.

She thought to herself, what exactly does this person do? Why does he know everything?
Could it be sent by other real estate centers to deal with themselves?

It's just that as soon as the idea in her heart came up, she was vetoed by herself.

impossible!
The other party was introduced by Sister Rong.

With Sister Rong's status, there is no need to waste her time dealing with such a small person as herself.

Besides, this man actually showed 5000 million assets as proof.

This cannot be faked.

Thinking of this, Hu Xinran thought he was suspicious.

Seeing that the other party was in a daze, Zhou Chen decided that he must explain this matter clearly today.

As Zhou Chen is a wilderness expert, he will naturally not tolerate that he will not understand even a tree species.

"As I explained just now, the plane tree is actually not a plane tree at all, but another name called the three-ball plane tree."

Pointing to a big tree in front of him, he continued: "The tree species planted in this courtyard are all Hainan sycamores. Hainan sycamore is a plant of the sycamore family. The branches are smooth."

"Hainan phoenix trees are generally mixed in seasonal rain forests. The climate of the location is characterized by hot and humid summer and autumn, cool and wet winter and spring, and little rain. The soil is red or brick red soil, which is shady."

"This kind of plant generally grows well in cloudy and foggy valleys and damp places. It is concentrated in forests with medium canopy density, with broad ovoid crowns and sparse branches and leaves."

"Wild Hainan phoenix trees are often mixed with wild lychees, yellow leaf trees, and neem trees."

Seeing the other party's expression getting more and more distorted, Zhou Chen didn't stop.

"The crown of the tree has good shade, the dry green is like emerald jade, and the leaves are golden in autumn. Hainan sycamore is a beautiful shade tree in the garden."

"The ancients said that the phoenix likes to inhabit on the sycamore trees with clean trunks and luxuriant branches and leaves. Phoenix" means."

"And 'planting paulownia in front of the house and planting bamboo in the back' is a traditional planting in the south of the Yangtze River. The phoenix tree should be planted alone or clustered with green bamboo, palm, plantain, etc. in courtyards, lawns, poolsides, lakesides, and slopes. It can be used as shade and as a substitute for pergolas, and it is also one of the good road tree species in schools and industrial and mining areas."

"The sycamore tree is planted next to the western-style building against the white wall. It is very beautiful in color, and as far as I know, Japanese people plant this kind of tree more than windows, atriums, tea gardens, and on both sides of the gate."

After listening to Zhou Chen's words, the corners of Hu Xinran's mouth began to tremble.

"Okay, you're right."

Hu Xinran originally wanted to introduce the plants in the garden, but now she has completely given up.

Feeling that the other party was a bit disappointed, Zhou Chen said apologetically, "Sorry, I have a lot of knowledge in the wilderness, so I know a little bit about common plants."

Hearing this, the corner of Hu Xinran's mouth twitched again.

What is this called a little bit?

It should be a billion points.

Hu Xinran is indeed an old man who has been in the industry for many years.

Even though she was almost depressed by the other party, she still showed the qualities that a real estate agent should have.

"Mr. Zhou, you are really knowledgeable..."

Hu Xinran flattered against his will.

Through the garden, the two came to the building.

"The appearance of this old bungalow is a typical Nordic architectural style, but the material is a mix of Chinese tiles and Shanghai stained glass, which can be described as unique and extremely elegant."

Hu Xinran wanted to say a few more words.

Thinking of the scene just now, she immediately shut her mouth.

"Come on, Mr. Zhou, let's go in and have a look."

As soon as the two arrived at the door, an old woman in her 50s came out.

She smiled at Zhou Chen without much expression.

Although the prices of old bungalows have soared in recent years, they are still very popular.

In the past month, at least seven or eight people have come here to view houses.

As a housekeeper who looks after the house, she is naturally not surprised.

It's just that Zhou Chen looks very young, which surprised her a little.

Butler Wu pulled Hu Xinran aside and asked in a low voice, "Why did you stay in the yard for so long?"

When Butler Wu was speaking, his eyes kept glancing at Zhou Chen.

"Hey, don't mention it, let's talk later."

Hu Xinran looked frustrated.

"Is he the one who wants to buy this villa? Judging from the age of the other party, he should be in his early 20s. Has the capital been verified?"

Butler Wu asked cautiously.

"After the inspection, we will talk again when we come back."

Hu Xinran nodded, then walked quickly towards Zhou Chen.

The sale of old bungalows is different from ordinary commercial houses. The price of this kind of houses is high, and the transaction is not easy.

Every time Hu Xinran brought clients here to view houses, he would have a few chats with Butler Wu.

After coming and going, the two became friends, and it has been more than a year now.

Most of the people who came to see the house before were entrepreneurs in their 60s and [-]s.

It's not that there are young people like Zhou Chen, but the total amount is very small, and this kind of young people generally have a habit of being crazy.

Butler Wu thinks that the other party should be the same as everyone else, a rich second-generation prodigal son, gnawing on the old and squandering at the same time.

And although she couldn't afford the house, she had the key to the house.

For so many years, she has long regarded this quaint old bungalow as her own house.

She looked down on this kind of flashy rich second generation.

"Sir, let me explain the rest to you."

Steward Wu didn't know which muscle was wrong, but he wanted to explain it to Zhou Chen for the first time.

Hu Xinran knew Butler Wu very well.

She knew that every inch of this old bungalow was cleaned and maintained by Butler Wu himself, and her knowledge points were also taught by him.

If the other party can explain it, it will definitely get twice the result with half the effort.

"Great, Miss Wu."

Hu Xinran held Steward Wu's hand very gratefully.

"Sister Wu has guarded this house for more than ten years, and no one knows this house better than her."

Hu Xinran smiled at Zhou Chen.

Zhou Chen was naturally happy to see a professional came to serve him.

After all, the purpose of his visit this time was to buy this house...
