Liuhai Hutong is located in the center of the capital near Shichahai, east from Songshu Street, west to Deshengmen Street, about 160 meters long, 4.5 meters wide, cars can drive directly into it.

Zhao Yongjun asked with a smile while driving: "Xiao Rui, Ruofei, do you know why this alley is named Liuhai Hutong?"

"Where do you know where to go?" Song Rui said, "Could it be related to the bangs on the girl's head?"

Xia Ruofei also said honestly: "I can't think of it, Brother Zhao will introduce us to you!"

For the capital, Xia Ruofei is indeed unfamiliar, and for unfamiliar things, Xia Ruofei will never comment indiscriminately.

From this point, it can also be seen that there is a difference in the personalities between him and Song Rui.

Zhao Yongjun glanced at Song Rui with a smile and said: "I guessed that you would say that! In fact, this Liuhai Hutong has nothing to do with the girl's bangs, it is said that it was named after a person named Liu Han, which was called Liu Han Hutong at that time, but after a long time, no one knew who this Liu Han of the Ming Dynasty was.

"I see!" Xia Ruofei said with a smile, "I think the names of the hutongs in the capital are strange, it seems that every hutong has a story!"

"Yes, there are even 'Wangba Hutong', 'Ghost Gate Guan Hutong', 'Coffin Hutong', and 'Shit Shell Lang Hutong'!" Song Rui said with a smile, "I really can't think of any other words that people in Beijing can't use in the name of Hutong!"

All three of them burst out laughing.

While laughing, the car drove to the door of a courtyard house.

A thirty-five or sixteen-year-old man stood at the gate of the courtyard, this man was wearing a sophisticated suit, the leather shoes under his feet were also shiny, with a meticulous parted head, and the flies would slide on it, and with a pair of delicate gold-wire glasses, he looked polite.

Standing at the door of the Beijing-style courtyard house, this head has the demeanor of intellectuals in the Republican period.

He obviously knew Zhao Yongjun's car, so he showed a warm smile and waved to this side.

Zhao Yongjun's car drove over, pressed the window and poked his head out, and greeted with a smile: "Angkor!"

This Angkor also smiled and said, "The brave army is coming!

After saying that, he turned around and opened the door of the courtyard.

The courtyard has been renovated, the steps at the door have been replaced with a cement gentle slope, and the threshold has also been removed, just for the convenience of cars in and out, after all, the alley is not very spacious, and the car parked outside is easy to cause traffic congestion.

Zhao Yongjun drove the car to the yard, and the three of them got out of the car separately.

The Angkor also walked in, he turned around and closed the door first, and then walked over briskly and gave Zhao Yongjun a warm hug.

"Yongjun, I haven't seen you for a few days, you seem to be lucky again!" said Angkor patting Zhao Yongjun on the shoulder.

"Angkor is still in style! It seems that the water and soil of the American emperor are also good!" Zhao Yongjun laughed.

After the two exchanged a few words, Zhao Yongjun said: "Brother Ang, let me introduce you to my two brothers, this is Xia Ruofei, who is doing big business in Southeast Province, and today he came to see the house;

Then Zhao Yongjun said to Xia Ruofei and Song Rui: "Ruofei, Xiaorui, this is my good friend Wu Shuheng, he has immigrated overseas, and the main reason for coming back this time is that overseas business needs working capital, and he is ready to sell this house." ”

Xia Ruofei smiled and said, "Hello Mr. Wu!"

Song Rui also smiled and nodded at Wu Shuheng.

Wu Shuheng showed a gentle smile at Xia Ruofei and said, "Hello! If I call you Ruofei, you can just call me Angkor like Yongjun!"

Wu Shuheng looks polite and straightforward, no wonder he can become friends with Zhao Yongjun.

Xia Ruofei was naturally kind, and said with a smile: "Okay, Brother Ang, please introduce this set of courtyards!"

Wu Shuheng nodded and said: "I bought this house in the nineties, and I renovated it again five years ago, so it's still quite new now, if you buy it, you can move in directly." ”

Wu Shuheng paused and then said: "This courtyard used to be the Baylor Mansion of the former Qing Dynasty, and it is also the largest house in the entire alley, with a total of three rooms, a total of 16 north rooms, 5 east rooms, 4 west rooms, and 6 south rooms, and the whole courtyard is very square, and the location is also in the center of the capital, which can be said to be quiet in the middle of the city, very livable!"

When Wu Shuheng was introducing, Xia Ruofei listened and looked at the first courtyard.

The place where the car drove in just now should be a special door for entering and exiting vehicles after the transformation, standing in the yard can also see the main entrance of the courtyard, the atmosphere is antique, and the traditional shadow wall is retained behind the door, it is estimated that the shadow wall is not demolished, so a new garage door was opened next to it.

Wu Shuheng saw Xia Ruofei looking at the gate and the shadow wall, so he said with a smile: "Ruofei, this gate and the shadow wall are all restored as they are, and the shape and grade of the gate is Guangliang Gate, second only to the palace gate, and there is a pair of drum-shaped gate piers outside the door, which was only qualified to be used by officials above the second grade in the former Qing Dynasty." ”

Xia Ruofei nodded and said with a smile: "This old mansion is quite exquisite!"

"Of course! It is a big crime to exceed the system, and there are rules for what level of officials to live in and what kind of house they have. Zhao Yongjun smiled and said, "There is a lot of knowledge here." ”

"Ruofei, let's go inside, and introduce you as we go!" Wu Shuheng said enthusiastically.

So the group began to walk slowly inside.

In the middle of the courtyard of the first entrance, a grape trellis is erected, forming a green passage that directly connects to the hanging flower gate of the second courtyard.

On the right side of this courtyard is a row of moon flowers and peonies, two pomegranate trees in the corner, and a walnut tree on the left.

Wu Shuheng took Xia Ruofei to the walnut tree, where there was a glass-roofed passageway, and a row of steps extended down.

Wu Shuheng said with a smile: "This used to be the cellar of the old house, and when it was renovated five years ago, the approval process was easier than now, and I took the opportunity to directly expand it into a two-story basement, and now there are wine cellars, fitness rooms, audio-visual halls, tea rooms, storage rooms, etc., which are very functional!"

Xia Ruofei and Song Rui couldn't help but exclaim, this is really a big deal!

This was something that could have been done a few years ago, but now the control is getting stricter and stricter, and the procedures for expanding the basement are absolutely impossible.

This house is so big, and there are two basements dug underneath, and the usable area is even more incredible.

Xia Ruofei proposed with great interest to go down and take a look.

Wu Shuheng nodded, led them down the steps, and after passing through a fingerprint lock door, the group went down to the basement.

There is a hall on the basement floor, two or three hundred square meters, covered with a thick cashmere carpet, a large screen on the front wall, and three rows of soft luxury seats opposite, Xia Ruofei even suspected that he had entered the VIP hall of the movie theater.

At this moment, Wu Shuheng said with a smile: "I love to watch movies, but I used to be busy with work, and I didn't have time to go to the theater often, so I often missed some blockbusters, so I got an audio-visual hall at home, and installed a full set of professional-grade digital audio-visual systems, and the effect of watching blockbusters is no worse than in the theater!"

Xia Ruofei was already a little speechless.

In addition to the large audio-visual hall, there is also a fitness room with full fitness equipment, a recreation room with standard snooker tables and table tennis tables, and a tea room with antique decorations.

Although it is a basement, because the courtyard of the courtyard is very large, there are lighting windows next to some flower beds, and the simulated natural light lighting system is still quite abundant.

The second basement floor is divided into two, in addition to a large storage room, there is also a large wine cellar, rows of wine shelves look spectacular, but because Wu Shuheng has emigrated overseas, this wine cellar is now empty, and there is no storage of red wine.

Rao is like this, Xia Ruofei and Song Rui, who visited for the first time, couldn't help but secretly say that such a large space has been made into a wine cellar, which is really too luxurious.

Xia Ruofei was also secretly thinking in his heart, if he bought this courtyard, the first thing to be renovated would be this wine cellar.

Because he already has the best storage space in fact, he doesn't need such a large space at all.

Of course, it's okay to save a small portion and put some wine on it for a show.

But even if he wanted to renovate, Xia Ruofei didn't know what to change it to - this courtyard house is quite large, and with a two-story basement, the function is already very perfect.

Thinking that he would be worried because the place was too big, and this house was still located in the center of the capital, where every inch of land was valuable, Xia Ruofei couldn't help but feel a sense of absurdity.

However, these things, it is too late to worry about these things when he really buys this yard, and now Xia Ruofei doesn't have to think about it so much.

After visiting the basement, Wu Shuheng led Xia Ruofei and the three of them to continue walking inside.

Through the hanging flower gate is the second courtyard, the north side is the main hall and master bedroom, in the middle is still a large courtyard, the yard has a lotus pot, planted pomegranate trees, grapevines and lilacs, it looks quiet and elegant.

The main house spans the east and west courtyards, very spacious, the outside looks antique, but the interior is very comfortable, all kinds of modern equipment are readily available.

The second courtyard is the owner's living space, in addition to the lotus pot and small fish pond in the yard, Wu Shuheng also transformed a small swimming pool.

Wu Shuheng introduced with a smile: "Ruofei, I put a lot of effort into the renovation of this house, repairing the old as old under the premise of not changing the appearance, the internal facilities are as modern and intelligent as possible, the whole house has a floor heating system, central air conditioning is used, and a lot of smart home appliances are used, but it was a bloody investment!"

"I see. Xia Ruofei said, "A lot of thought has been put into this house in Angkor. ”

"I bought it for my own use, so the materials are the best. Wu Shuheng said with a smile.

The group continued the tour.

The third courtyard is a little smaller, but there are also eight or nine rooms and a small courtyard, which are mainly functional rooms, and the kitchen is also set up in this courtyard, as well as common toilets, drying rooms, maid's rooms, and so on.

In order to ensure the privacy of the owner's living space, a small door is opened in the backyard for the servants to enter and exit, and there is a passage directly connected to the first courtyard in the west, so that the second courtyard can be relatively isolated, and at the same time, it is surrounded by two courtyards, and the security is naturally better.

Wu Shuheng said: "Ruofei, the alley outside this backyard is also quite wide, if you buy this house, you can open a wider door in the backyard, and then renovate the two garages, and it is very convenient to enter and exit." ”

Xia Ruofei nodded and said, "Yes, yes, this house in Angkor is indeed very livable!"

Zhao Yongjun said with a smile: "Ruofei, how about it? Are you satisfied after reading it? If you are optimistic, just say it directly, you don't have to hide it with Angkor, he will definitely give you the best price!"

Wu Shuheng laughed and said: "You are the brother of Yongjun, if you really want this house, I will definitely give you the lowest price!"

Xia Ruofei smiled and said, "Brother Ang, I really like this set of courtyards, you can tell me a price!"

Wu Shuheng was also secretly happy in his heart when he heard this-his company abroad had difficulty in capital turnover, and he came back this time to sell his house and realize it as soon as possible.

However, the courtyard house located in the center of the capital is absolutely unattainable for ordinary people, and with such a large area, the total price is even more staggering, and where can it be sold in a short period of time?

In the past few days, there have been a few people who have come to see the house, but they are all frightened by the high total price, and there is no follow-up after going back.

These days, Wu Shuheng is also secretly anxious.

Today, Zhao Yongjun personally brought his friends to see the house, Wu Shuheng is still looking forward to it, after all, people who can call Zhao Yongjun brothers and sisters, then the economic strength is definitely not bad.

Seeing Xia Ruofei asking about the price, Wu Shuheng hurriedly said: "Ruofei, the unit price of this piece of courtyard is more than 100,000 yuan, if this house is sold on the Internet, it will definitely not be less than 160 million, and my house is not the same as those dilapidated miscellaneous courtyards, this is Baylor Mansion! In addition, the renovation and renovation alone cost me tens of millions in the past few years, which is incomparable to other courtyards." But you are the brother of the brave army, if you sincerely want it, just give me 140 million, and all the household appliances and ancillary facilities in this yard will be included for free!"

In fact, what Wu Shuheng didn't say was that if he put the house up for sale, it was indeed possible to sell it for 160 million, but it would take time.

After all, this kind of high-end housing is a high-end house, and the housing prices in Beijing have risen above the sky, and the wealth on paper has only increased a lot, but if you want to realize it, it is far inferior to those ultra-small and relatively low total price school district houses.

After Xia Ruofei listened to Wu Shuheng's offer, he also nodded secretly in his heart, he had learned about the housing prices in this area yesterday, and knew that Wu Shuheng was not exaggerating, 140 million in the current market, it can indeed be regarded as a conscience price.

Even Song Rui felt that this price was very attractive, he gently touched Xia Ruofei's arm, and said in a low voice: "Ruofei, this price is right......!

But before Xia Ruofei could speak, Zhao Yongjun smiled and said: "Brother Ang, how unlucky is 4? Don't you pay attention to the color of business?

Wu Shuheng smiled bitterly and said: "Yongjun, I'm already vomiting blood! You can go out and listen to it, 140 million is really not expensive!"

Zhao Yongjun didn't speak, just looked at Wu Shuheng with a smile.

After a while, Wu Shuheng said helplessly: "That's it, if I don't lower it today, you kid will definitely not agree......! Since you say 4 is unlucky, then 138 million, right?

"Don't mind!" Zhao Yongjun said, "38 is not much better than 4, you can drop a little more!"

Wu Shuheng said with a sad face: "Yongjun, I really can't descend anymore ......"

Zhao Yongjun said with a smile: "Brother Ang, Ruofei and I have a lifelong friendship, and he is also kind to our family, and my father values his ...... very much."

"Gotta get it! Hurry up and stop!" Wu Shuheng hurriedly said, "Yongjun, you've said everything you have to say, then I'll drop it by another 2 million! 136 million, it really can't be less...... Otherwise, I don't have enough money, and there is no point in selling the house...... It's better to find other ways to raise money!"

Zhao Yongjun said a few words, and the price dropped by another 4 million, so much money is enough to buy a big house in most second-tier cities.

Zhao Yongjun nodded with satisfaction, then looked at Xia Ruofei with a smile on his face, and asked, "Ruofei, this price ...... What do you think?"

Xia Ruofei was already moved by the price of 140 million, but now after Zhao Yongjun's bargaining, Wu Shuheng actually dropped another 4 million, which is equivalent to an unexpected joy.

So Xia Ruofei didn't hesitate much, nodded after a little hesitation and said, "Okay! Brother Ang, Brother Zhao, I want this house!"

Wu Shuheng breathed a long sigh of relief, the deal was finally negotiated, although the price was a little lower than expected, but overall it was acceptable.

In any case, at least the funds are settled.

"Great!" Wu Shuheng said, "Ruofei, you will definitely not lose money when you buy this house, even if it is used as an investment, as long as you are patient, you can make money by changing hands!"

"Angkor, I bought it and kept it for myself. Xia Ruofei said with a smile.

"It's even better to live in your own house. Wu Shuheng said with a smile, and then asked, "By the way, how are you going to trade?" Do you need to apply for a bank loan?"

If Xia Ruofei applies for a mortgage, then it will take time for the bank to approve and disburse the loan, and for Wu Shuheng, the most precious thing now is time, so he is still a little worried in his heart, don't be happy in vain.

Xia Ruofei said with a smile: "I can't apply for a house loan in the capital. Angkor, don't worry! I have all the money to buy a house, and I will pay the full amount!"
