Courtyard House: Purchasing Agents' Comeback from the Great Famine

After finishing breakfast, Wang Feng didn't chat with the two women and went straight out.

When Wang Feng arrived at the same craftsman who had made the large bathtub last time, he ordered another large bathtub and a large iron pot for boiling water.

After riding his bike to the neighborhood office, Wang Feng gave the old man at the gate a Daqianmen cigarette and then went to the office of the clerk who had processed his house transfer last time.

"Knock knock knock".

"Please come in."

Upon arriving at the office, Wang Feng lit a cigarette and said, "Hello, Officer Chen. I have a room that I'd like to renovate. Could you please write me a note?"

Officer Chen took the cigarette and asked, "Which courtyard do you live in?"

"Courtyard No. 28".

Upon hearing the name No. 28, Officer Chen immediately remembered it.

How would you like the renovation done?

"Officer Chen, I'd like to install a flush toilet, a shower room, and a kitchen in the yard, and also paint the walls white," Wang Feng said truthfully.

"Okay, please wait a moment."

Officer Chen, with a serious and businesslike demeanor, quickly wrote the note and stamped it with the official seal of the subdistrict office.

"Take this note and go to No. 9 Mao'er Hutong to find Master Lei."

Taking the note, Wang Feng asked curiously, "Officer Chen, Master Lei, is it Yangshi Lei?"

Officer Chen nodded: "Yes."

"Thank you, Officer Chen."

As Wang Feng walked out of the subdistrict office, he was somewhat excited. He hadn't expected that there really was such a person as Yangshi Lei; after all, he was a celebrity.

Riding his bicycle, it took Wang Feng about ten minutes to reach No. 9 Mao'er Hutong and knock on the door.

"Knock knock knock".

The door opened, and a young man came out.

Who are you looking for?

Wang Feng handed over a Daqianmen cigarette and said, "I'm looking for Master Lei, comrade. Does Master Lei live here?"

The young man took the cigarette and shouted into the yard, "Dad, someone's looking for you."

Soon, a middle-aged man came out.

The middle-aged man looked to be around fifty years old. He had a long beard, dark skin, and a somewhat weathered appearance.

"Comrade, you were looking for me?"

Wang Feng offered a cigarette and said with a smile, "Hello, Master Lei. My name is Wang Feng. I have a courtyard that I would like you to help renovate. It's located at No. 28 Nanluoguxiang. This is a note from the street office."

Yangshi Lei took the note, glanced at it, and nodded, saying, "Master, wait for me a moment. I'll grab my tools and go take a look with you."

"Lei Zhenzi, go and inform Uncle Li and Uncle Wang to prepare their tools and get to work."

Lei Yangshi was a decisive person. He went back to get his tools, rode his bicycle, and followed Wang Feng to No. 28 Nanluoguxiang.

Qin Jingru and Lou Xiao'e were no longer in the courtyard. Wang Feng took out the key, opened the door, and walked into the courtyard with Yang Shilei.

"Master Lei, I have seven rooms in this courtyard. I want to use one room as a toilet, one as a shower room, and one as a kitchen. I also want to paint all the rooms white. Do you have any objections?"

"Boss, let me take a look first."

After walking into several rooms and looking at the layout of the courtyard, Yangshi Lei already had a clear idea of ​​what to expect.

"Boss, no problem, but I've looked at your rooms. The smallest one is 18 square meters, and the one most suitable for a bathroom and toilet is 21 square meters. Are you sure you want to use two such large rooms as a toilet and bathroom?"

Wang Feng hesitated for a moment, then said, "Master Lei, do you have any good suggestions?"

"Boss, actually, it would be great to divide this 21-square-meter room into two partitions, one for a shower room and the other for a toilet. That way, both the shower room and the toilet would be 10 square meters, which is big enough. Besides, the toilet in your yard is the flush type, so it won't smell. What do you think?"

Wang Feng smiled and nodded: "Okay, then let's do it the way Master Lei says. By the way, Master Lei, could you calculate the total cost, including labor and materials? I won't cover lunch, but I'll give you the money in cash. Master Lei, it would be best if you could get a few more workers to help, as I need it urgently."

Upon hearing this, Yangshi Lei took out paper and pen and began to write and draw. After a moment, Yangshi Lei said to Wang Feng:

"The total cost of materials and labor is 390 yuan. Boss, is that alright?"

Wang Feng laughed heartily, took out 200 yuan and handed it to Yang Shilei, saying, "No problem."

Yangshi Lei took the money, counted it, patted his chest, and assured, "Don't worry, boss. I'll go and get a few more people later, and I guarantee the work will be completed within three days with high quality and quantity."

"Alright, then thank you for your hard work, Master Lei."

Wang Feng handed the key to Yang Shilei and discussed some details with him before Yang Shilei hurriedly left.

Wang Feng sat in the courtyard and used his mind to enter the space to take a look.

Last night, the 120 mu of sweet potatoes in the space all sprouted sweet potato vines. Wang Feng planted all the sweet potato vines, and this time he planted a total of 780 mu. Adding to the previous 120 mu, there are now a total of 900 mu of sweet potatoes.

He now has a total of 1,000 acres of land. He plans to develop a 50-acre fishpond and use the rest to grow wheat and rice. He has also expanded the pasture considerably.

The wheat and rice will be ripe in the next couple of days, and we should plant about a few acres of them then.

Plans can't keep up with changes. Who could have imagined that his space would expand so much in such a short time?

The fruits, vegetables, and precious medicinal herbs like ginseng that I wanted to grow before can now be planted.

I still need to go to the mountains when I have time and bring back more wild boars and other animals to enrich the space. There are too few wild boars and pheasants in the space right now, and their reproduction is still too slow.

After closing the door, Wang Feng rode his bicycle to the moat.

Arriving at a location that hadn't been explored before, and finding no one around, Wang Feng stripped off his clothes and jumped down.

While collecting the water, Wang Feng also released his spiritual sense to search for treasure.

......

at the same time.

Lou Xiao'e returned to the Lou family's small villa. Lou Bancheng and Tan Yali looked at Lou Xiao'e in surprise, and Tan Yali couldn't help but ask:

"Son, why are you back so early? Did you and Wang Feng have a fight?"

Lou Xiao'e rolled her eyes at Tan Yali and said coquettishly, "Mom, can't you say something nice? It's because Brother Feng is renovating the yard and it's inconvenient for him to come back and stay for a few days. He asked me to come back and stay for a while."

Tanya patted her large chest and let out a long sigh of relief.

"Son, you really scared us to death! Your dad and I thought you and Wang Feng had a fight. It's good that you didn't."

"Hehe, Mom and Dad, Feng is so good to me, how could we possibly argue?"

Lou Xiao'e smiled sweetly, a happy smile on her face.

"Son, how are your parents usually treating you?"

Lou Bancheng's sudden remark confused Lou Xiao'e, but she still nodded: "My parents are very good to me, what's wrong?"

"Son, it wasn't easy for us to raise you. Look, could you get a few more bottles of wine from Wang Feng?" Lou Bancheng asked with a smile.

Yesterday, Lou Bancheng drank a small amount of the wine Wang Feng gave him. Not only did his knee pain subside, but his sexual performance also improved significantly. Last night, after dinner, he dragged Tan Yali back to their room and they had a passionate encounter. This time, he actually lasted a full 15 minutes.

This was an absolute surprise for him. He usually finished in three to five minutes at most, but the wine Wang Feng gave him was incredibly effective. Not only did it extend his time so much, but it also had no side effects. This kind of wine, which could cure illnesses and strengthen the body, was practically a divine wine!

For the sake of a happy life in the future, he had no choice but to shamelessly ask Xiao'e for help. He just couldn't believe that Wang Feng would take out such a good thing as a betrothal gift when he only had two bottles.

Upon hearing her father's words, Lou Xiao'e instantly realized why her father seemed like a different person; he wanted her to ask Wang Feng for wine.

But this is the most important secret of their Wang family. Even her own parents would never agree to it without Brother Feng's consent.

Thinking of this, Lou Xiao'e looked at her parents and said directly:

"Mom and Dad, didn't Feng say these are the last two bottles? He's already given you the last two, what more do you want?"
