Chapter 369 Watching a Movie

Bai Yan kept his word and really gave the car keys to Lu Zhenping. The couple drove around Shangjing for several days, mainly with Shen Meng. Shangjing is the capital, and now many foreign tourists or overseas Chinese return to visit relatives and visit domestic tourist attractions.

This scene made Shen Meng more certain about starting a company.

If she were in other cities, she might still have concerns, but not in Ning County. That is her base camp. She has both policies and connections, and generally no one would rush to offend her.

They had just finished breakfast and returned to the guesthouse when they saw Bai Yan standing in front of the car holding a bag of information. When he saw them come back, he hurried over to them.

"I'm back. What are your plans for today?"

"We've been shopping for several days, and we plan to take a good rest today. What's wrong?"

Bai Yan handed the information bag in his hand to the two people. Shen Meng glanced at him, took it and opened it. The information on it was all about the courtyard houses under the imperial city.

"What are you doing?"

"I'm not stupid. When you said you wanted to buy a courtyard house, I knew it wasn't just for Mingkai. Nowadays, there are foreign guests everywhere in Shangjing, and there are more and more self-employed people. Big cities like Shangjing, Haicheng and Yangcheng are all building commercial housing. If things continue like this, housing prices will definitely go up. Although I don't know how high they will go, there is always a prospect for development. This is the information I collected. If you are free today, let's go and take a look together."

"Okay, why not, let's go."

Lu Zhenping also nodded, took the information from Shen Meng, looked at it carefully, and handed it back to Bai Yan.

"Today, in addition to looking at the courtyard, there is another thing to do. Let's go and handle the formalities for the house that grandma left behind. I will register my name first, and then transfer it to Mingkai when he comes to Beijing."

"Hey, I thought you wanted to put it under your brother's wife's name!"

Lu Zhenping shook his head and said, "It was left by the old lady. Neither of us is suitable for it. It would be best to give it to Mingkai. But if we write Xiaomeng's name on it during the formalities, Ms. Bai and the Yuan family will probably make a fuss. Neither of us wants to waste time, so let's just register my name now."

Shen Meng meant the same thing, and she was planning to start a company. She was thinking about returning to Ning County in a couple of days, and she was afraid that the children at home would miss them too.

After getting in the car, Bai Yan started driving towards the nearest courtyard house.

Shen Meng still had some admiration for him. It was just a simple meal last night, and she only revealed some subtle information, but Bai Yan noticed the key issues from these details. He was indeed a soldier and was very perceptive.

Whenever there is a new policy, the first people to know about it will definitely be the people in Beijing. I think he actually has some ideas, but he didn't dare to do it because of his family's conditions.

We visited four courtyards in the morning, but they were all occupied by people, and some were dilapidated, with all kinds of messy smells mixed in. There was a courtyard with two entrances where eight families lived, and there were even shacks in the yard.

At lunch, Shen Meng frowned slightly as she looked at the yard she hadn't seen yet. "You must be tired. Let's eat first and then go take a look in the afternoon."

"No need. After dinner, Zhenping and I will go back to the guesthouse. We bought tickets for the day after tomorrow and plan to visit my uncle and aunt tomorrow to say goodbye."

Lu Zhenping picked up the teapot and added a cup of hot water to Shen Meng.

"Ah, you're leaving now? But that's fine. My parents can see you, so our two families can be considered as relatives, and it's not in vain. So, when you leave, go see your aunt. OK, OK, OK, if you don't want to go, then don't go. I also think you shouldn't go. It's really annoying, but are you really not going to go and see these courtyard houses this afternoon?"

Lu Zhenping placed the beef noodles in front of Shen Meng and placed chili oil and vinegar next to the bowl so that she could add them however she wanted.

"No, it's more or less the same. After we finish the registration in the afternoon, we will go back to the guesthouse. We can afford to buy two houses, but there will be a lot of problems if we buy them now. The residents can't move out for a while, and some will refuse to come out. It's better to wait a little longer, or find some private people. We are not in Beijing, so we don't have that much time to chat with people. If you want to buy, just buy one house. We won't take care of the follow-up problems."

"That's what we mean."

Shen Meng slurped a mouthful of noodles and added that when they followed Bai Yan out in the morning, they thought they had found some personal courtyards, but they didn't expect that they were all inhabited by people of all kinds.

"I just collected these recently. You don't know how many unemployed young people there are in Beijing. In the past two years, when winter comes, Shichahai is full of young people skating there, and there are even more people fighting at night. I asked someone to collect these courtyards. They are also personal. But there is no way to drive the people living in them away. If they are driven away, they have nowhere to go."

"That's why I said there's no rush to buy it now. Anyway, you're in Beijing, so just keep an eye on the news. We'll take the train early next morning. You know the phone number of the Public Security Bureau in Zhenping. Call them if you have any news, and I'll come over then."

Bai Yan: “.”

Why don't I buy it myself if I have the news? I'm telling you, is it because I don't have money? ? ?
Yes, I really don’t have enough money!
After the transfer in the afternoon, Shen Meng and Lu Zhenping went back to rest. In the evening, Lu Zhenping took Shen Meng to the cinema.

"You old idiot, I didn't expect you to suddenly become romantic."

"We finally got out here, so we can't always be busy with business. When I was going through the paperwork this afternoon, I heard two young people say that Romance on Mount Lushan was showing tonight. You saw this movie last year, and you kept talking about it. It's showing today, so why not go see it again?"

"it is good."

The old movie actually still looks quite interesting, and there are only her and Lu Zhenping, who are usually very busy. The last time they watched a movie, they brought their four children with them. There was no atmosphere at all, especially the scene where the heroine kissed the hero.

Mingkai actually said directly that the kiss was good, just like when mom kissed dad.

When Shen Meng heard the suppressed laughter on both sides, she wanted to dig a hole in the ground and crawl into it, never to come out again.

There were a lot of people in the cinema. When Lu Zhenping and Shen Meng went in to find a seat, they suddenly saw a familiar figure flash by.
