Siheyuan: My wife is Xu Huizhen

Chapter 78 Renting and planning (page 12)



Don't think that renting a house is cheap now that wages are low. In fact, if this courtyard house is for sale, it can cost around 4,000 yuan.

The price of a courtyard house once you enter is about one thousand yuan.

This is a courtyard with three entrances and a facade. Four thousand yuan is not much.

He Yuzhu had previously inquired about houses of similar size on this street, all with rents of more than 20 yuan.

He Yuzhu was a little hesitant. He had never done business before, so he really didn't know how much money he could earn and whether it was higher than his salary.

But the location of this store is great.

Among other things, Master's home is in the alley nearby. It's very close to him through the back door.

It's a moderate distance from their home, and they generally don't come here to shop, so the chances of encountering it are still very low.

Think about it again, isn't it just 15 yuan a month? Even if you don't make enough, you still have to rent it first. You only need to go to the moat for half an hour and the fish you catch can be sold for 15 yuan.

Tian Zao said: "This house is quite good. Do you think the area is too big? Why don't you just rent the one in the front?"

"It's better to rent both front and back. This shouldn't be illegal, right?"

"It's not illegal. You're renting, not buying. Besides, it doesn't matter if you buy it. Once the ingredients are determined, they won't be changed."

There are more than 12 houses in this area, and only those with more than 13 houses will be classified as small owners.

For example, Yan Bugui's family is a small owner, mainly because he owns a shop and a house in a courtyard.

Regardless of what he usually does, the main reason is that he is relatively frugal, but even so, his three sons have their own houses when they get married, so he does not treat his sons badly.

He Yuzhu's family members are three generations of farm laborers. Even if he buys this compound now, he will not change the family composition.

Of course, if He Yuzhu had so much money, he would rather buy food and store it in the space than buy the yard.

The only option is to rent a house to run a hotel.

He Yuzhu quickly figured out that he should rent this shop.

Although the job at Tai Feng House pays high wages, He Yuzhu doesn't want to be tied to the kitchen every day.

You must know that being a chef is also called Qinxing, which means that chefs must not be lazy. It is the hardest profession.

There is endless work to do every day, and there is very little time for rest. Although there are apprentices to help, it is too hard to work around the stove all day long.

After these few days of thinking and experimenting, since He Yuzhu can trigger the professional skills of tailoring and carpentry, he can also trigger some other professions.

Why should you stick to the profession of chef?

I can find other professions and wait until 58 when times are tough to become a chef again. At least I will have no problem feeding myself.

When the wind blows, find a factory to work as a worker.

You must know that at that time, the production tasks will be very light, almost non-existent, and the only time to go to work is to dawdle.

"Thank you, Sister Zao, I rented this house."

"Okay, I'll give you the key first. You can tidy up the house in the past few days, and you can apply for the lease contract at the end of the month."

Originally a store selling ready-to-wear clothing, the overall layout needs to be reorganized and new items added.

This was no one else. Tian Zao gave some time for decoration and rectification, and it would not be too late to sign a lease contract at the end of the month.

Tian Zao went to work first, leaving He Yuzhu to clean the house.

After closing the door, He Yuzhu activated his mental power. With every thought, some dust and rags in the house were collected into the space.

Although He Yuzhu is in a floating state in the space, he is still a little uncomfortable. He used city wall bricks to build a closed space specifically for storing this garbage.

When the time is right, release it and send it to the garbage dump.

After collecting the garbage, He Yuzhu suddenly made a new discovery.

When introducing it before, Tian Zao said that this house was originally the house of an enemy agent.

A tunnel was opened in front of the house, leading directly to another house.

After the incident, the tunnel has been blocked in the middle, but you can still go down from here, leaving a section of tunnel.

Logically speaking, the staff should have checked the tunnel and confirmed that there are no problems before releasing the house for rent.

However, He Yuzhu's mental induction could tell that there was a jar buried half a meter below the tunnel.

Without spiritual induction, it would have been impossible to discover that there was a jar hidden half a meter underground.

As soon as He Yuzhu thought about it, the jar disappeared from the soil and entered the space. He Yuzhu instantly threw some broken bricks and tiles into the space.

Then put the jar in front of yourself.

Although I already knew what was inside, I still made it a habit to see it with my own eyes.

He Yuzhu was very happy. This time he wanted to rent a house. He came to the right place. He did not expect such a big gain.

First, I looked around this exquisite porcelain jar. Although the one-foot-tall jar has been buried in the soil for a while, the glaze is intact and the color is still bright. Unfortunately, it is a jar from the Guangxu period, and its value is not high at the moment.

But the surprise is still inside.

Untying the hemp rope and peeling off the waterproof kraft paper, the first thing that caught your eye was a pistol and some yellow-orange bullets.

After He Yuzhu took it out, there were more than ten oceans below, and two large yellow croakers were lying at the bottom.

Although the price of Dayang is higher now, one can be exchanged for three yuan.

But the ones that are more valuable are these two large yellow croakers.

Big yellow croaker is the common name for gold bars. After the Republic of China, we were no longer accustomed to using gold ingots. Instead, we used big yellow croaker and small yellow croaker.

Small yellow croaker is usually one tael. Of course, one tael at this time is not 50 grams, but 31.25 grams.

The price of large yellow croaker is ten taels, which is 312.5 grams. The current official price of gold is 3.08 yuan per gram.

In this way, a large yellow croaker is worth 962.5 yuan.

He Yuzhu secretly thought it was a pity. If he had four and a half large yellow croakers, he could have bought this house.

This enemy agent is really stingy. You could just put two more gold bars, but he only hid two big ones.

He Yuzhu admired it with some pity for a while, and then sent all the things into the space.

Not bad, my monthly salary is 40 yuan, which is 50 months, four years of income.

Nowadays, ground rice costs 1 cents and polished rice costs 1 cents. If I buy all the grain, it will be enough for me to eat for many years.

It's just that the gold must not be taken to the bank to be exchanged. Otherwise, it will be difficult to explain the origin, and you will have to find a way to find someone who specializes in gold and silver exchange.

He Yuzhu clapped his hands, drew a thin stream of water from the space, and washed his hands.

Then I went out, locked it, and went to work happily.

When we arrived at the kitchen, it was already a little later than usual, and the master had already arrived.

"Master, I'm late."

"It's okay, get ready."

But He Yuzhu said: "Master, I have something to tell you. I have taken a fancy to a storefront and plan to open a small restaurant on Yandai Xiejie."
