Riding the wind of rebirth

Chapter 331

The whole building is made of reinforced concrete and blue bricks. A lot of solid wood is used for doors, windows, floors and decorations. The roof is made of blue tiles, tiles, and dripping water. The porch uses Gothic stone pillars. The ground floor adopts a Chinese style pattern. The design is in the style of Baroque churches and domes, and the stairs to the upper floor are hidden behind it, but it is more modern.

This is a building in the "Borrowing" style, but the magic is that this treatment makes the mansion still harmonious and beautiful.

It should be said that the designers back then were considered masters.

But now, except for the attic, the two side rooms on the ground floor and the three main rooms on the second floor have been remodeled and equipped with independent bathrooms for convenience.

Jiang Wu said: "At that time, there was another reason for the cancellation here, that is, the conditions were too good, but there were too few comrades who could receive recuperation. The old comrades thought it was a specialization, and they had opinions."

This was actually the normal state of many old comrades in the last era. Zhou Zhi really admired him for his high integrity.

Then came another miraculous thing. The door of the solid wood Baroque church, which occupies a large wall in the main hall, can be opened.

After opening it, you can walk to the back of the mansion, which is a porch like the front, but the main entrance outside has become a marble-decorated arch, and the stone carvings in the porch are more complicated, and the materials are obviously more advanced than those just entering.

There is a "back garden" here, the lawn is already full of weeds, the front is a gable of white tiles, the moon door is opened in the middle, and there are flower windows on both sides, and there are two rooms at the end of the gable at both ends. There are various tools, tableware, and stoves piled up in it, and there is a boiler and a chimney in one room.

From the Moon Gate, there is a long slope with stone steps on both sides of which are covered with trees, and there is a path in the forest leading to the pavilion by the water.

Qingshui River on the left, Huanhua River on the right, the confluence of the two waters is the end of the stone steps, and there is a small stone pier.

There is also a simple stone bridge on the side of Huanhua Creek, which can be crossed from Xiaoshi Wharf.

When he turned his head to look at the mansion on the slope, Zhou Zhi suddenly realized: "Brother Jiang, have you turned this mansion upside down?! This side should be the front!"

"what?!"

"Hey, it seems to be." Godfather said: "This side of the mansion is much more luxurious than that side, and this side is the south side, and you can have a panoramic view of the two rivers."

"But... But there is no traffic here?" Jiang Wu was stunned for a moment: "There was a big garage outside the mansion before, but after we built a factory, it was withdrawn. Isn't the car able to show its style? It must not stop Next to the main entrance?"

"It is our blessing to be born under the red flag and grow up in New China." Zhou Zhi stretched out his finger to the other side of the Huanhua River with emotion: "Whether host or guest, you can come from there, and let two people carry the sliding pole."

Jiang Wu suddenly became angry: "It's really a big dog!"

But going out from there is very desolate now, and it can even be said that a large area around it is very desolate now. Zhou Zhi can't understand how someone built such a beautiful building here back then.

The advantage is that the place is big enough. Apart from the inconvenient traffic, the water, electricity and electricity have been opened and used for a period of time, and now they can be used after simple maintenance.

Several rooms have been individually decorated, and the specifications are still high. The equipment used, including the boiler room and kitchen, are all very good.

The roof and balcony have been refurbished. In Jiang Wu's words, if Zhou Zhi doesn't dislike it, he can move in the old furniture in the utility room and put it back in place.

Of course it's an exaggerated joke to say that, there are countless places in this house that need to be remodeled.

Including wiring, including walls, including chandeliers, including independent rooms, it is still far from "modern".

And ponds, gardens, garages, roads, street lights...

But on the whole, although it is the farthest and most remote from the city center, it is the most cost-effective place.

First of all, the place is closed and the privacy is excellent.

Secondly, the place is big enough and the main building is complete.

Behind it is the military vehicle repair shop, with troops stationed there, and big wolf dogs patrolling the night, so ordinary thieves dare not come.

The rest are problems that can be solved with money.

Godfather is also quite optimistic about this place, whether it is from the perspective of Feng Shui, or from the perspective of architectural value, it is quite worthwhile.

In Jiang Wu's eyes, this mansion is not worth much, but in the eyes of Zhou Zhi and his godfather, it is different.

In the attic storage room, Zhou Zhi caught a glimpse of his godfather digging the seams of the furniture, and secretly nodded to Zhou Zhi.

Looking around, both of them are most satisfied with this place, but Zhou Zhi raised a problem, that is, the original site of the mansion on the old drawings should include the garage outside, but now the garage is occupied by the army repair shop, so it needs to be replaced This piece of land is compensated.

The best way to compensate, of course, is to include the pointed mouth of the peninsula in front of the main entrance of the mansion into the scope of this purchase. Except for the part that belongs to the management of the river, the rest is thoughtful and comprehensive. On the basis of the original 20 yuan It's not impossible to add some money.

Jiang Wu's mobility is also top-notch. He immediately plunged into the office of the auto repair shop and made a crackling phone call. When he came out, he said, "I've asked you clearly, add [-], and I'll fix it for you!"

"make a deal!"

Then another 23 went out, plus the previous 44, 67 was gone in a blink of an eye.

The godfather persuaded Zhou Zhi not to spend money like this, but after thinking about it, he thought it was a good deal, and changed the subject after he opened his mouth: "I don't know which family's mansion this is, it should be considered a celebrity back then, right?"

"It was unreliable at the earliest time." When everyone got into the car, Jiang Wu said, "It seems that some foreigner who came to Sichuan to preach or teach was later transferred to the French consul, and then transferred to a national counselor. .”

"Then why is it called a donation?" Zhou Zhi asked, "After the founding of New China, shouldn't it be confiscated?"

"It's one size fits all." Jiang Wu returned a gift to the factory manager who came to see him off, and turned the steering wheel to let the car out of the parking space: "At that time, there was a peaceful uprising in central Sichuan, and this counselor was a patriotic democrat. He has always had a close relationship with our party, and used his status in the government to protect many of our comrades, provide a lot of help for our cause, and even introduce many comrades to embark on the revolutionary road."

"So it's like my grandmother, an old underground party." Zhou Zhi laughed.

"It doesn't seem to be the case." Jiang Wu said: "Although this Counselor Su has been helping our cause, he has never joined the party..."

"Wait!" Zhou Zhi and his godfather yelled at the same time, frightened Jiang Wu, and stepped on the emergency brake: "What's wrong?"

"You just said that the national counselor's surname is Su? He started helping the revolution in three years? But he has never joined the party?" Zhou Zhi grabbed Jiang Wu's arm: "Is his name Su Huaxuan?!"

"Uh... I don't know much about this... I have to call and ask."

"Then get out of the car quickly, let's go back and make a phone call." Zhou Zhi said as he opened the car door.

"What are you doing?" Jiang Wu also opened the car door, and ran to the office with Zhou Zhi: "Who is this person?"

"If it's really this person..." Zhou Zhi said while running, "Su Jiahua's descendant! I have to call him Grandfather!"

"What the hell... what a coincidence!" Jiang Wu was dumbfounded.
