Chapter 1256 Digging the Tunnel
Chu Heng has a very clear plan for the main room and the side rooms in the backyard. The west side room is the boiler room, the west room is Xiao Ni and his bedroom, and the middle room is the main room. When he comes to receive guests, the east room is his study, and the east wing is the bathroom.
An Rongyuan and Zou Guo, who were standing outside the east wing watching the excitement, heard footsteps behind them and subconsciously looked back. When they saw Chu Heng coming, they hurriedly greeted them.
"You are here, Master Chu."
"Well, what are you doing in that room?" Chu Heng nodded with a smile, took the cigarette from An Rongyuan, and raised it again He pointed to the east wing and asked, "What are you doing in that room?"
"It's time to install the toilet." Zou Guo said hurriedly.
"Oh? Let's take a look." Chu Heng walked outside the east wing and looked inside.
I saw a few specially invited masters who had installed toilets for the Four Nine City Hotel squatting on the ground and working in an orderly manner around a porcelain white toilet. Some were connecting water pipes. Some are doing sealing, and the division of labor is very clear.
Chu Heng watched intently for a while, then gradually lost interest. He turned around and walked around the backyard accompanied by An Rongyuan and the others.
They first went to the west ear room to take a look. The boiler in the room had been installed. It was a stupid big guy, or a second-hand product that someone had replaced. This made Chu Heng take advantage of the boss. .
But it’s all worth it to improve your quality of life.
This boiler can heat three main rooms and the bathroom at the same time, and the cast iron radiators in those rooms have a very good insulation effect. In winter, just press them in the furnace before going to bed. Coal, even if the fire goes out in the middle of the night, the radiator will still be warm the next morning.
It is much better than a briquette stove that is hot when there is fire and cold when there is no fire. With it, Chu Heng will never wake up from the cold in the middle of the night and then get up to add fire to the briquette stove. .
That was such a suffering!
After coming out of the boiler room, a few people went around to other houses, and they were almost all sorted. They just wanted to get rid of the smell of paint and add some furniture before moving in.
Soon, the three of them walked around the yard and finally came to the east room used as a study.
This house has not been changed much. Apart from repainting the walls, the furnishings are still the same as when I left Qingyuan.
Chu Heng walked around the room with his hands behind his back, sometimes touching the chairs and sometimes the table. In his mind, he could not help but recall the experience of visiting that house for the first time. How high-spirited the old man was. Who would have thought that in just a little over a short period of time, everything would have changed.
After sighing for a while, Chu Heng came back to his senses, looked around, waved to An Rongyuan and the others, and asked furtively: "Where is the tunnel I asked you to dig?"
"Just under the stool."
The two of them took a few steps to the table against the north wall, pulled out the heavy huanghuali armchair next to it, then squatted down and dug out a blue brick from the ground, revealing a copper handle.
Immediately afterwards, I saw An Rongyuan pulling the handle hard and lifting it up. As the knotted muscles on his arm squirmed, a piece of blue brick was stuck with cement, and an iron plate of one square meter was covered. He lifted it up, revealing a dark tunnel underneath.
“Boom!”
An Rongyuan laboriously placed the iron plate on the ground aside, making a muffled sound.
This iron plate is not light in the first place, and with the green bricks and cement stuck on it, it becomes even heavier, making it impossible for those with weak strength to lift it.
Chu Heng glanced at this inconspicuous device, nodded with satisfaction, and immediately ordered: "Find something that lights up, go down and have a look." "Oh."
Zou Guo responded and ran out. After a while, he found a red candle half as thick as a finger.
After lighting the candle, Zou Guo took the lead and climbed down the iron ladder in the tunnel, followed by Chu Heng and An Rongyuan.
Not long after.
Several people landed on the ground and came to a bluestone corridor. They walked forward along the corridor for a while, and soon came to the underground secret room where many antiques and treasures were hidden where Qingyuan led Chu Heng down.
At this moment, the secret room that Chu Heng had moved completely was completely empty, not even a mouse droppings could be seen.
Chu Heng asked for a candle from Zou Guo, walked around the secret room, and then walked up the stone steps leading to the east wing. After a while, the three of them came from the second room of the east wing. He bent down and got out of the mezzanine of the wall.
“Not bad!”
Chu Heng looked at this room with no other furnishings except the ancient shelf on the north wall used to hide the secret door, and a smile spread at the corner of his mouth. , and immediately asked An Rongyuan and the others with a straight face: "No one else knows about digging the tunnel, right?"
"Absolutely not!"
Zou Guo clapped his chest vigorously and assured: "The tunnels were dug by me, An Rongyuan, and Peng An ourselves, and they were all dug at night. Absolutely No Seventh person will know."
Chu Heng warned again: "Remember to be strict with me, if I let the Seventh person. I personally know that I have a secret room under the ground. All six of you brothers will jump into the Jinshui River to feed the bastards!”
“Don’t worry, we won’t tell anyone.” The two brothers were trembling. He shook his head, and at the same time, he planned to tell Peng An and the others when he went back, be sure to keep your mouth shut, and don't hurt your brothers even if you die.
The three of them said a few more words and then came out of the room. Chu Heng went to the bathroom and took a look. Seeing that the masters were still busy, he threw a box of cigarettes to them and said he was tired. , I took the trouble to say polite words, and left the old house.
After going out and getting into the car, Chu Heng started the car without stopping and drove towards Lian's house.
A while ago, he heard from Aunt Sun that the old man Lian was not in good health recently. He had been a little busy these two days and had not made time to go. It happened that he had nothing to do this afternoon, so he planned to go and take a look.
The car sped along, and soon Chu Heng arrived at the courtyard where the Lian family was located.
After he took down a few gifts that he had taken out from the warehouse in advance from the car, he strode into the courtyard. As soon as he arrived in front of Lian's house, Chu Heng smelled a strong smell of traditional Chinese medicine.
I saw Aunt Lian squatting next to the briquette stove in front of her house, lighting a fire. There was a medicine pot on the stove, making a beeping sound, exuding a strong medicinal fragrance.
"Aunt Lian."
Chu Heng walked forward carrying things and asked, "I heard that Director Lian is ill. What's going on now?"
"He's fine for a while. I won't die for a while, it's you, Aunt Lian, and I will suffer." Aunt Lian, who had been squatting in front of the stove for a long time, stood up with difficulty, looked at the room where coughing was coming, and hummed: "This damn old man stole some time ago. With I got up early to go fishing with someone, and I caught a cold when I came back. I don't know what happened, but eventually I developed a lung infection. I had a terrible cough. In addition, I fell into the ice hole that time and now I urinate every time I cough. , I urinate when I cough, and my hands are soaked because I have to wash my pants!”
“Tsk!”
Chu Heng is speechless, this old man is so capable! Be a monster!
