Chapter 149

"That courtyard house is actually quite dilapidated. It is an old building from the Qing Dynasty. It has not been well maintained. Many doors, windows and walls are broken. No matter how you look at it, it is not worth [-] million." Du Qingqing said After hearing her point of view, I was used to seeing modern high-rise buildings. When I first saw the old courtyard buildings, I really couldn’t appreciate them for a while.

The green light turned on and the car in front had started and continued to move forward. Qiao Ruida quickly stepped on the accelerator and caught up with the car in front.

"That's Shijia Hutong. It's surrounded by Shijia Elementary School, a traditional cow school with a name in history, as well as top high schools like No. [-] Middle School, and countless celebrities as neighbors. With such a good cultural environment, even without those buildings, just That piece of land is worth more than [-] million. It’s just that the courtyard houses over there are cultural relics protection targets, and I’m afraid it’s hard to get a renovation permit. The structures of those old houses are too old. If they are not renovated, they will be difficult to live in. Very uncomfortable."

Du Qingqing asked with some confusion: "What's the point? After buying the house, doesn't it belong to us? If we want to modernize it, do we still need to apply for it?"

"It's a protected cultural relic. If you can't get a renovation permit, you can only repair it as before. The glass windows cannot be replaced, the air conditioner cannot be installed, and the water pipes and heaters cannot be connected to the room. If you want to open a door in the wall to enter the car, It's not allowed." Qiao Ruida summarized the horror of cultural relic protection in just a few words. It can be said that if you can't get the house renovation permit, even if the courtyard is renovated, it will be difficult to live comfortably.

"Ah, without air conditioning and heating, that house can still be lived in. It can be too hot in the summer and freeze to death in the winter. Ruida, if you really want to buy that courtyard house, you must make sure you can get the renovation permit before you buy it."

"I think so too. Spend more than [-] million yuan to buy a courtyard house. If you can't live comfortably, it's not a big loss. So, Qingqing, do you still have the intermediary's phone number? Call it and ask for permission for the renovation. If we can get the renovation permit, then we will buy it, decorate it and make it our home in the capital."

"Okay, you are really rich and willful. I have the agency's mobile phone number. I will call him when I get back to school and ask."

"Well, contact us as soon as possible. Tomorrow is the fifteenth day of the first lunar month and the company is on holiday. If possible, we will go to Shijia Hutong to look at the house. After all, it is a mansion worth more than [-] million. I won't feel at ease if I don't see it with my own eyes."

After returning to school, Qiao Ruida and Du Qingqing went to Pine Forest Fast Food for dinner.Today is the fourteenth day of the first lunar month, and tomorrow is the Lantern Festival. There are cooked Yuanxiao for sale in the restaurant today. They each bought a bowl of Yuanxiao and two steamed buns, and they were very full.

After dinner, Du Qingqing called the agency and asked about the permission for the courtyard renovation.The other party gave a very definite answer. The original owner of the courtyard had applied for a renovation permit two years ago, but no construction had been carried out.If the courtyard changes hands, the renovation permit can still be used.In the end, both parties agreed to view the house again the next day and hung up the phone.

"After asking around clearly, that courtyard house now has a renovation permit, and it can be modernized and renovated at any time after buying it. The agent and I made an appointment to see the house again tomorrow morning, and then we can go shopping together."

"Well, as long as it can be renovated, then the price of more than 2 million is quite worth it. I will go to the site tomorrow to have a look. As long as it is not too dilapidated, I will put down a deposit to buy it."

For the next time, the two held hands and walked around the campus before returning to their dormitories to rest.The next day, after breakfast, Qiao Ruida and Du Qingqing went to Shijia Hutong to view a house. Li Xiaoshuang and Xie Fei heard the news and clamored to go together.Many people have one reference, and Qiao Ruida readily agreed to their request to form a group.While Qiao Ruida was on the phone, the roommate, Fatty, also heard some information, and his jaw almost dropped.

"Boss, it's an exaggeration that you want to buy a courtyard house in the capital. As far as I know, the old courtyard houses in the capital are all within the second ring road, and the average price is at least 30 per square meter. Land is really precious. Boss, do you really have that much money to buy it?"

The little fat man is a native of Beijing and knows the market situation of courtyard houses very well, so he asked this question.The fact that Qiao Ruida started a company was not a secret in the dormitory. Xu Lin, the fat boy, was working odd jobs at Reda Technology Company these days. He had a preliminary guess about the company's financial situation. He knew that Qiao Ruida was very rich, but he didn't Thinking that he could afford a courtyard house.

Qiao Ruida put away her mobile phone and said with a smile: "My company has been running for more than half a year, and I was lucky enough to make some small money. If I spend two to three hundred million, I can buy a courtyard house without any problem."

"Ah ah ah, two to three hundred million is still a small amount of money. Boss, you are really good at pretending. If you give me two hundred million, I won't go to college or work. I'll just go home and stay there, eating and waiting. Death, how comfortable it is."

Qiao Ruida curled her lips and said disdainfully: "Look at your little potential, you will be satisfied with two to three hundred million. We are Peking University sweethearts with a bright future. How can we be satisfied with this small amount of money? Fourth brother, don't lie down under the quilt either. Come on, get up quickly, wash up, and go look at the house with me. After all, you are a local in the capital, so you are familiar with the situation here. If there is something fishy about that courtyard house, you can also give me a heads up."

"Okay, I'll get up right away. I've never seen a courtyard house worth more than [-] million yuan. I must go with the boss to see it today."

Half an hour later, Xie Fei drove Li Xiaoshuang to Peking University and met everyone. Then the five of them drove two Mercedes-Benz cars and set off directly to Shijia Hutong.

Du Qingqing visited the courtyard house for sale yesterday. With her guidance, he quickly found the place.This courtyard house is located deep in an alley, surrounded by courtyards with more than two entrances, with blue bricks and gray tiles, and an antique feel.This is a Shijia Hutong attraction, and occasionally some tourists with cameras come in and out of the alley.

Qiao Ruida found a parking lot outside the alley and parked her car, then asked everyone to get out of the car and walk into the alley.

Xie Fei visually measured the width of the alley and said: "This alley is quite wide, at least about five meters. It's no problem for cars to get in. I'm just afraid that two cars will run into each other and I won't drive."

"Well, it's quite wide. It's very close to the Forbidden City. In the Ming and Qing dynasties, it was the place where dignitaries lived. Officials on horseback and sedan chairs often came in and out. It makes sense to make the alley wider."
