The Prosperous Years of Siheyuan

Chapter 98 Stronghold
When Chen Jisheng returned to the courtyard, Aunt Zhao was performing a role of mother raising her son under the tree in the front yard.

Zhang Fen, the eldest son of the Zhang family, kept circling around his mother, but he didn't dare to run away.

Listening to the sound of "papa", Aunt Zhao was really beaten and soon she would be swollen.

The other three who charged bravely were also timidly gathering the building materials delivered in the morning. They were all trembling like mice after seeing a cat.

"Aunt Zhao, it's almost done. If you try again, it will delay your work."

Seeing that Aunt Zhao had no intention of stopping, Chen Jisheng also persuaded Fenyong to charge forward and work here.

I just want them to know that if you pay, you will be rewarded. If you break it and rest, you won't be able to realize it.

"Hmph! If you dare to stare at the big girl or the little daughter-in-law and can't move, I will beat you to death!"
Go to work!If you can’t stand still, kneel down and do it! "

Seeing her boss limping, Aunt Zhao was still angry, so she went up and kicked him again before giving up.

This is the education that children usually receive. The bamboo board can be regarded as caring, not a beating.

"Aunt Zhao, what's going on?"

Listening to the meaning behind the words, Zhang Fen, the boss, made a mistake in his waistband, and Chen Jisheng also wanted to eat a ready-made melon.

"I went to the house today and this little kid stared at Qin San's daughter-in-law's balls without even blinking. He's in trouble."

Aunt Zhao was really angry too. What she was most afraid of was this matter. The boss was also holding back and had to find a wife for him to get married quickly.

"So soon? Qin San'er is gone?"

This speed surprised Chen Jisheng. Yesterday he decided to evict Qin San'er, and the house was transferred this morning.

Aunt Zhao, the director of the neighborhood committee, is truly extraordinary in her strength and ability to follow her words!

"After leaving in a few days, his elder brother happened to find him a job in a large factory in the Northeast. This has been going on for several months.

The relationship between his wife and children has been settled in the street. I didn't go to the neighborhood committee for this matter, and I only found out when I went to his house.

Fortunately, the second child found out early yesterday. He was leaving and wanted to make some money along the way.

I went to his house last night and told him that if the house was not available for sale, I would appoint him as the owner of the property. He readily agreed and only asked for [-] yuan.

Anyway, he wanted to leave before, but I didn't do what you asked, so I gave him six hundred and five hundred and five hundred. That's it, and he was so happy that he was so happy.

Well, this is the remaining money. "

Chen Jisheng waved his hand and motioned for Aunt Zhao to take the money first. He thought about Qin San'er's side, the information was asymmetric, and he had used too much force.

"Aunt Zhao, take the money first, and if there is a suitable detached house nearby, buy it too.

This time, I will use the second place first, and it will be the second place from now on. The yard does not need to be too big, it just needs to be quiet and away from people. "

Aunt Zhao's skills must be used well. After all, there are many people in the courtyard, and Chen Jisheng has long wanted to build a remote courtyard as his stronghold.

"Yes! There is a secluded courtyard not far from this courtyard. Even though the alley is a bit narrow, it is also in the hands of the neighborhood committee. Two hundred is enough."

When it comes to business matters, Director Zhao is obviously a good person. After Chen Jisheng said it, she took out the things casually.

"Aunt Zhao, let's go over and take a look? When will Qin San'er's house be vacated?"

When repairing the house, Chen Jisheng trusted Lao Liu, so he came back to take a look, just to see if there was any room for improvement in the structure.

There is no rush on this day. Since Aunt Zhao has a good base here, let's go and take a look first.

"As for Qin San'er, we'll have to do it in the afternoon. Everything in the house has almost been taken care of, except for some things that need to be taken away from home.

I made an agreement with him to vacate the house in the morning, and we will change the locks in the afternoon.

During this time, he was renting a house from the neighborhood committee. He would leave in ten days at most. "

After hearing Aunt Zhao's timing, Chen Jisheng called Zhang Fen over again, just in time to ask him to familiarize himself with the steel rolling mill.

"Zhang Fen, you will ride my bicycle to the steel rolling mill later and go to the canteen to find He Yuzhu. Remember! Your name is He Yuzhu.

Ask him to tell Lao Fan that I am looking for him. Let's go to Qin San'er's house to take a look in the afternoon. "

After making these arrangements, Chen Jisheng and the delighted Aunt Zhao left the courtyard and headed for their new base.

After leaving the outer gate of the courtyard, without going onto the street outside, the two of them headed west into the alley.

After walking south for a while, when I almost saw the main street, I turned into a small alley.

After walking for another 20 meters, we entered a narrow alley with a dead end that was only over one meter wide. There was a house in the middle of this alley.

It is surrounded by courtyard walls, and there are courtyard walls within courtyard walls. It is really hard to find this small house.

The courtyard door was not locked. There was a piece of wooden stick inserted into the lock. Aunt Zhao easily pulled it out and opened the courtyard door.

There are three main rooms and small east and west wing rooms. The ground in the courtyard is paved with city bricks. The old-fashioned doors and windows of the main room also have glass.

There is a rare hand-pressed well in the courtyard, and there is a small dry toilet in the corner, which can be regarded as a small courtyard with all internal organs.Without a key, Chen Jisheng leaned on the window and looked at the main room. It was clean and there was no furniture.

Looking at the east and west compartments, the west compartment is the kitchen, and a small brick shed is built on the gable wall, which is a coal shed for storing firewood and coal.

I can't see clearly in the east chamber, but it should have been set up with pots and pans and a fire pit. The old-fashioned stained glass windows also have glass, so they must have been used in winter.

The building quality of the small courtyard is good, with green bricks and clear waterwork. Even though the courtyard is small, a lot of effort was put into its construction.

"Aunt Zhao, this little yard is nice. It's just him. I'll pass it over to the second one this afternoon. We'll change all the locks in one go."

While talking, Chen Jisheng climbed onto the wall again, and swept around a few times. This small courtyard has no neighbors, and it is surrounded by walls or back mountains.

"Success! Then I'll take my second child to transfer the title in the afternoon, and you guys come and change the locks. Ji Sheng, this house can no longer be bought, and it will take a while to buy it."

Aunt Zhao's side was also under pressure due to the continuous attacks. The money was only 2000 yuan, and her own family also spent [-] yuan.

If he buys a house next time, it will be difficult to explain if others find out about it, and he will be able to fool him no matter what.

You are not a fool to buy from someone else. Once you check it out, you will find that you are no longer a human being inside and out.

"Okay! I don't want the good ones around here. I'll go find Aunt Wang when I need them again."

If you don’t want it here, you can still want it on the other side of the street, but there is no suitable target, and there is no suitable person like Aunt Zhao.

When he came out, Chen Jisheng looked at the alley. Perhaps no one had been there for a long time. There was a lot of floating soil in the alley, and the footprints going back and forth were clearly visible.

"Aunt Zhao, when Lao Liu finishes his work in the courtyard, you can ask him to renovate this courtyard, don't say it belongs to us.

Replace the electric wires, repair the damaged areas, and pave this alley with some old city bricks. The paving should be strong, and he will pay for the work and materials. "

Thinking about laying bricks, Chen Jisheng also thought about the house for his second sister. The bricks outside were nice, but unfortunately they were not suitable here.

The alley is deep and narrow, and the cackling sounds when walking are quite scary, and can easily be heard by people outside.

Aunt Zhao nodded in agreement, and the two started walking back again. On the way, Chen Jisheng roughly estimated the location of the small courtyard.

It's actually not far across the courtyard. If you climb over the wall, you'll reach the small street where the courtyard is located in a minute or two.

In the dead of night, if you yell in the courtyard, you should be able to hear it clearly in the small courtyard here. It is a very good small base.

"Jisheng, don't do things that are inconsistent with your status."

Almost out of the narrow alley, Aunt Zhao, who was behind, suddenly said such a sentence, which made Chen Jisheng stop.

"Aunt Zhao, you probably know about my family situation. I have five brothers and a sister, and my parents all work in the workplace.

I won't do anything to be an enemy agent. I work as a buyer in a steel rolling mill and have access to a lot of materials.

I have created a small circle of myself to free up some scarce supplies. How many people are doing this! "

In the past two days, Aunt Zhao has shown her dark side. Regarding issues of principle such as enemy agents, Aunt Zhao does not rub the sand here.

Chen Jisheng had no choice but to explain, saying that if it was too deep or too high, Aunt Zhao would misunderstand it.

After almost talking about the business of the Purchasing Department, Aunt Zhao behind her obviously breathed a sigh of relief and lowered her guard.

"Auntie believes you."

This time, Aunt Zhao didn't speak sloppily. After speaking seriously, she walked in front of Chen Jisheng. Looking at her waist, she probably had something else to do with him.

Chen Jisheng didn't go into details about this. He had made great strides in the past two days just because Aunt Zhao took advantage of her.

Aunt Zhao's attitude towards a mortal enemy like an enemy agent is clear. This is also a good thing. The director of the neighborhood committee who is not upright and has too much evil is not a good supporter.

Because the questions they just asked were somewhat sharp, the two of them didn't speak much during the whole journey, but each other felt much calmer.

When they arrived at the courtyard, Chen Jisheng took a general look at Lao Liu's progress. On the half-stone wall base, blue bricks had been laid to leave doors and windows.

The back mountain is the previous courtyard wall, without pillars, and the four pillars in front have already been put in place, and they just need to be erected.

The original corridor of the main house is also ready for leaving the building, and half of the one-meter-long low wall has been built.

With the Zhang family's brave charge, Lao Liu's speed was much faster. At this speed, the wall will be almost completed tomorrow.

Most of today's houses, whether they are buildings or bungalows, do not plaster the exterior walls, and plastering the interior walls is also simple, which is why it is so fast.

The flower window of the Bachelor's Mansion that Lao Liu mentioned arrived today. I went over to take a look and found it to be quite grand, with no complicated carvings.

The flower windows are original colors, and the old door is red and green. It is twice as thick as the original wooden door. The material is thick and there is no deformation at all.

Chen Jisheng went to the squatting room and looked inside. No one had come in, so he put down the toilet and squatted in the port city.

He put away the corresponding accessories, found a few sacks to cover them, and then left the inverted room.
