Chapter 134: Waking of Insects, everything sprouts, sweeping the mountain
After all, self-housing is simpler, so this plan was finalized first. The construction company's quotation was rough + hard decoration, totaling more than 630,000. However, two girls, Yao Yao and Zhao Xueqing, helped negotiate the price, and the final price was 600,000.
Of course, this is also because there is the "Garden Holy Land" big project next door. For that big project, the other party's first draft plan quoted more than 9 million, but many aspects still need to be discussed, and the quotation is also somewhat inflated. Li Xiang and the others raised I received many revision suggestions and asked the other party to publish another version.
In addition, renderings must also be produced. Although it will cost a little more to make renderings, the renderings are more intuitive and are also one of the references for future acceptance.
If the result is too different from the previous rendering, it won’t work.
If you switch to a more formal company, you will often conduct a three-party price comparison, but Li Xiang is the boss himself and is quite satisfied with the supplier's attitude and strength. As long as the final price is not too outrageous, he will sign the contract.
Despite the economic downturn, the construction company was quite willing to take on the $8-9 million project, so the plan continued to be carefully revised and improved. The contract for self-residential housing is signed first. According to the process stated in the contract, 30% is paid upfront, and the other party comes to the site for construction. After the rough construction is completed, another 30% will be paid. After the hard decoration is completed and the acceptance is passed, another 40% will be paid.
Once the money was in place, the other party acted very quickly. The construction team came immediately and enthusiastically helped with the move.
Not only did the construction team help, but many villagers also came to help and watch Li Xiang's family demolish the house.
Li Jinyu, Jiang Jianguo, Li Yucheng, the third wife... It can be said that nearly two-thirds of the people came. A rare lively moment in Lijiacun.
"Oh, what a pity. It was only reinforced last year and cost a lot of money for bricks and tiles, and it was demolished again just a few months ago." An old man lamented, feeling very regretful.
Someone on the side said: "No matter how well-reinforced it is, it is still an old house. Now that I have money, of course I have to tear it down and build a new one. Otherwise, I will marry a wife and hold a wedding. Oh, such an old house is so embarrassing. ! ”
"That's right. Now you are the village chief and the big boss of a company. You can't be too shabby."
"Hey, those girls, who do you think Xiangya has fallen in love with? They have been running to Xiangya's house every now and then for the past three days. Sometimes two or three of them come and go around him!"
"Why, you have an opinion? Don't worry about this young person's affairs."
"Times have changed. If we were at that time, how could we dare to be so bold?"
"It doesn't seem like they are in love. I heard they were recruited as employees!"
"Oh, this...this..."
"What is this?"
"I think Xiangya is going to reverse the course of history and create Sannomiya and Sixth Academy."
"That's because people have the ability. Are there not enough rich and powerful people with three wives and four concubines and mistresses?"
"Don't talk nonsense, I think Xiangya is quite upright, not that kind of person!"
"If you keep talking nonsense, the bamboo shoots will be dug in a few days, and Xiangya will not bring you any goods!"
"Look at my mouth, I was wrong, I was wrong, haha! But if it were me, I would be so young and handsome, and there would be so many girls around me, I would have to get them all..."< br>
"You are daydreaming. Watch out if your mother-in-law slaps you on the ear. If you don't hurry up, go help our village chief move furniture."
Li Xiang set up a big tent next to the corridor and temporarily stored all his family's things in the corridor and the tent. Li Xiang slept in the tent outside, and grandma slept in the utility room next to the kitchen. It was good to tidy up.
Anyway, it’s just make do for the time being.
There were some old things at home. Li Xiang originally wanted to get rid of them, throw them all away or burn them as firewood, but grandma was reluctant to part with them.
This and that were also commemorative, so Li Xiang kept them all for her.
Especially the set of trousseau furniture that grandma used to own, including cabinets, boxes, tables, beds, dressing tables, etc. Although the style is old, it is still very strong and has carved patterns. After cleaning it, it looks very good and very old. feel.
It is a Chinese-style house, so putting some old furniture in grandma’s room will not look out of place.
The newly purchased furniture contains formaldehyde. Grandma’s dowry set is made of handmade solid wood furniture, which is very healthy and environmentally friendly.
The paint was peeling off in many places. Li Xiang was thinking about helping her repair it by hand when he had time. Of course, he would not buy the kind of paint containing formaldehyde, but traditional lacquer.
Although there is construction going on at home and it is a mess, Yao Yao, Zhao Xueqing, and Lei Xiaohui still come here often.
Zhao Xueqing has more things to do. In addition to being in charge of the Guofeng Teahouse, she also has to build a coffee shop and a milk tea shop. Lei Xiaohui is also an employee who has signed the agreement. It is impossible to just leave it alone. The salary has already been calculated, so Li Xiang asked She went to help Zhao Xueqing, and the two of them worked together to take care of each other.
Lei Xiaohui also prefers to be with Zhao Xueqing, and she can't stand Yao Yao's charming personality.
Therefore, when it comes to shooting videos, Lei Xiaohui and Zhao Xueqing co-create most of them, while Yao Yao works alone and sometimes comes to Li Xiang for help. When they posted these videos individually, the response was mediocre. However, after Li Xiang forwarded and pushed them, they became much more popular, and the number of fans of the three girls gradually increased.
It's good to have money. The house can be built quickly. The frame is erected in a week. It is a reinforced concrete structure and the roof is a traditional pitched roof with cornices and brackets.
Between the green tile roof and the glazed roof, the natural choice is the red and yellow glazed roof, because it looks better and in ancient times, the level was also higher.
The reason why Bangzi's Gyeongbokgung Palace is cyan is not because they don't like red and yellow, but because they are not qualified to use it and don't dare to use it.
The red and yellow glazed tiles are glazed, and when the sun shines on them, they sparkle with golden light. They also have better performance in terms of waterproofing, drainage, and heat insulation.
Of course, the price is also more expensive than Qingwa.
The previous kitchen had five spines and six beasts, but this time the main house used the standards of the Forbidden City. In addition to ten small mythical beasts on each cornice, there are also immortals riding phoenixes, hanging beasts and tao beasts.
Anyway, no one cares about this now. Just like ancient doornails, only the emperor had ninety-nine and eighty-one, or eighty-nine and seventy-two (Donghua Gate).
Because the emperor's coffin goes through the Donghua Gate, life is yang, death is yin, odd numbers are yang, and even numbers are yin, so the Donghua Gate uses even numbers and has fewer door nails.
The prince can only use nine vertically and seven horizontally, sixty-three. The prince is even worse, he can only use 7,749.
For Dukes, there are seven vertically and five horizontally, thirty-five.
Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!
Officials of the fourth to fifth grades have five vertically and five horizontally, twenty-five.
As for officials and common people below the fifth rank, they are not allowed to use door nails.
Of course, the gates of Li Xiang's house, and the gates of the scenic spots after that, need to be ninety-nine and eighty-one, and they must all be painted with gold paint.
Nowadays, anyone with money can use eighty-one pills.
The gate of the scenic spot and the nearby wall courtyard are designed like a small city wall, which will also be a good place to take photos and check in in the future.
The blank is almost ready and the roof is covered, but the decoration still needs to wait for the wall to be completely dry. The builder recommends waiting for one to three months. Of course, if you are in a hurry, you can live for seven or eight days.
Li Xiang was naturally not in a hurry.
The previous kitchen was done quickly because there was basically no decoration. Nowadays, the design and decoration of the main house are naturally more complicated. Water, electricity, floor heating, and central air conditioning all need to be hidden. In many places, ceilings, ceramic tiles, wall coverings, wooden floors, etc. are also required, so you have to wait a little longer.
……
The spring thunder is rolling and the rain is rushing. The awakening of insects causes all things to stir.
Lijiacun has begun to pick spring bamboo shoots. It has to be said that bamboo has a very strong reproductive capacity. After digging out winter bamboo shoots, spring bamboo shoots are dug up again, but in summer, they are still densely packed, with many new bamboos swaying.
After time, the spring bamboo shoots are no longer fresh and delicious. During the days when there are thunders and thunder, the spring bamboo shoots are the most delicious, and they are also called "Thunder Bamboo Shoots".
Li Xiang was very quick and could carry the weight of others for several days, so he stopped digging after two days. He already had three to four hundred kilograms.
No matter how strong the reproduction ability of bamboo is, it cannot dry up the lake for fishing. It still needs to leave some shoots.
A lot of spring bamboo shoots sprouted out of the second-level Golden Thunder Bamboo. Instead of digging out the small bamboo shoots there, Li Xiang directly chopped down the big bamboos, and received a lot of achievement points and the first-level exotic grass Snow Skirt White Sunflower as rewards.
I actually cut a lot of them one after another before, but basically there are still more than ten roots left. Now there are a lot of golden thunder bamboo shoots popping up, so I can cut down a few more.
This first-level Snow Skirt White Rhizome Sun actually has little effect on him, but it is a top-notch tonic that can be used to recuperate the body of ordinary people, and money cannot buy it.
Not only does it look good, it also tastes very good.
If coupled with the breathing method, and the other party is talented and can cultivate spiritual power, he can step into the extraordinary.
The spiritual wine I brewed last time has been almost consumed, and there are not many elixirs left in the system warehouse, which are being consumed faster than expected.
It was originally expected to be available until summer, but now it has been used up in early March. He has been polishing the third-level realm for a long time and feels that his foundation is extremely solid. It is time to go to the virgin forest to sweep the mountains, harvest elixirs, and break through the realm!
