Mr. Fang pointed at the courtyard house and said,"Boss Li, what do you think of this courtyard? According to your request, we have a private courtyard.”

"Not bad."

Li Wen looked around. This courtyard house was not very big, about 300 square meters. There was a main room, east and west wing rooms, and a small storage room beside the door.

The standard Siheyuan of Beijing was much smaller than the one filled with birds, but it was relatively enclosed.

The only flaw was that no one had lived in it for a long time, and there were many dilapidated places.

If he really wanted to stay, he would probably have to renovate it properly.

Hearing Li Wen's interest, Mr. Fang smiled and said,"What do you think, Boss Li?"

"How much is this courtyard?"

"Eight hundred."

Mr. Fang gestured an eight.

"Eight hundred? There are too many. Look at this shabby place. I have to spend money to renovate it before I can live in it.”

Li Wen shook his head. He had not only asked Fang Yulin to look for a courtyard house these past few days, but he had also learned from Zhang Zhangfang that the price of a courtyard house in Sijiu City was generally between 300 to 800 yuan.

Don't think that this price is very low. The Siheyuan now has no water and electricity. Not only is the environment poor, but the toilet is also installed with a toilet bowl. After that, they have to wait for the special collection team to take it away.

If it was delayed, the feces and urine would have to be left in the courtyard for a day. It was difficult for people who had never smelled it to understand the sour and refreshing smell.

"Boss Li, you can discuss the price with the other party.”

Mr. Fang shook his head. He didn't own the courtyard, and he was only doing Li Wen a favor. Li Wen would definitely negotiate the price himself.

"Alright, Mr. Fang, please introduce the owner to me." Li Wen said.”

"Boss Li, you're too polite. I was the one who initiated this matter, so I'll definitely arrange it for you clearly.”

"Thank you very much."

Li Wen thanked him and went into the east and west wing rooms to take a look. The room was empty and there was nothing left.

He had originally thought of picking up old furniture, but seeing the situation, he decided to forget about it.

……

……

After leaving the courtyard, Li Wen looked up and saw the walls of the Forbidden City in the distance.

No wonder it was said to be under the Imperial City. With such a distance, if the soundproofing was not good enough, the people in the courtyard would have heard the shouts from the Forbidden City.

If he bought this courtyard house and kept it for a few decades, it would be worth at least tens of millions.

However, if he really wanted to stay here, it would be a little far from Dazhalan.

It wouldn't be very convenient to go to restaurants in the future.

Although he said that, he would definitely buy it.

Was this a joke?

If he didn't spend a few hundred yuan to buy such a good Siheyuan now, would he have to wait for a few decades before buying it?

While thinking, Li Wen said goodbye to Mr. Fang, got on a tricycle, and walked toward Dazhalan.

Last night, it snowed in Sijiu City again.

The ground was covered in snow.

The three-wheeled driver didn't dare to ride too fast.

Li Wen didn't rush him. He sat on the tricycle and admired the city that had been around for 50 years.

He staggered back to Dazhalan.

When he passed by Chen's Silk Store, Li Wen thought of Chen Xueru and asked the driver to get off the car.

He gave her a 20 cents fare.

Li Wen tidied his clothes and walked into the silk store.

At this moment, Shopkeeper Qian, who was sitting in the corner doing the accounts, suddenly saw that it was Boss Li of Tongfu Building. He immediately went forward and said,"Boss Li, it's my pleasure to welcome you.”

Li Wen cupped his hands and looked around, but he didn't see Chen Xueru."Shopkeeper Qian is too polite. I wonder if Miss Xueru is here?”

"Miss didn't come to the shop today." Shopkeeper Qian shook his head.

"If that's the case, then I won't disturb Shopkeeper Qian any further.”

Li Wen recalled the recent rumors that Chen Xueru's father was seriously ill and bedridden. Chen Xueru was probably taking care of him at home.

Watching Boss Li leave, Shopkeeper Qian remembered what he had told the owner a few days ago. After thinking for a moment, he instructed the employees in the shop to take good care of him and hurried to the Chen family.

Not long after.

When Shopkeeper Qian arrived at the Chen Family.

Under the guidance of the servant, they arrived at Boss Chen's bedroom.

Once he entered the room, Shopkeeper Qian was dumbfounded. The owner of the house, who was still in high spirits a few days ago, had a sallow complexion today, as if he did not have much time left.

"Old Qian is here. Come and sit…cough cough…"

Chen Haisheng coughed as he asked his daughter, Chen Xueru, to move a chair for Old Qian.

"Boss, there's no need to trouble Miss.”

Shopkeeper Qian shook his head and stopped Chen Xueru. He looked at Chen Haisheng worriedly and said,""Boss, your health."

"I can't."

Chen Haisheng sighed." I thought I could still hold on for a while, but my illness suddenly acted up yesterday. If the doctor didn't come in time, I'm afraid…"

"Dad, you're fine. Don't talk nonsense. I've read your fortune. You'll definitely live to a hundred years old.”

Chen Xueru was crying her eyes out when she saw her father like this.

"I know my own body. Xueru, stop crying. People will part one day.”

Chen Haisheng stroked his daughter's hair and looked at Shopkeeper Qian.""Old Qian, why are you here today? Is there something wrong with the silk shop?”

"It's fine, Boss. Everything in the shop is fine.”

Shopkeeper Qian wiped away his tears. While he was sad, he thought of Boss Li. He hesitated for a moment, looked at Chen Xueru, and then looked at Chen Haisheng.

The meaning was self-evident.
