“It will be much easier if you have the drawings.”

Wang Chunxi looked at the design and construction drawings and became more confident about the courtyard upgrade project.

Li Yu went to the kitchen to boil water, took a few sweet potatoes and put them in the oven, selected the air fryer function, and started baking.

When I left, I promised to bring roasted sweet potatoes to Brother Dao, but when I met Wang Chunxi, I completely forgot about it.

While there is still time to recover, use the oven to cook a few to satisfy your dog's craving.

After the water was boiled, he poured it into a teapot, brewed a pot of Lapsang souchong, and carried it outside.

"Captain Wang, come, come, have tea."

Wang Chunxi, wearing glasses, sat cross-legged on the steps in front of the living room, comparing the design on the drawing with the existing layout of the yard , see if there are any changes.

Seeing Li Yu coming over with tea, he waved his hand and said:

"You're welcome, Xiao Li, I'll determine the location of the pavilion first."

After that, he took out a pencil and ruler from his bag and started drawing on the drawing.

Li Yu did not bother, but came to the living room, looking for a suitable place to display Hanfu.

The place facing the front desk is not very convenient. You need to check in here. When there are many guests, it is bustling and no one cares about the Hanfu.

He thought for a while and planned to put up a set of screens next to the reception area and put Hanfu inside the screens.

This can not only provide privacy, but the barrier of the screen can also arouse the curiosity of tourists. When they come in and look at the dazzling array of Hanfu, they may be confused at once.

"Xiao Li, do you think it's okay to put a pavilion in this location?"

Outside the living room, Wang Chunxi was writing and drawing, and finally determined a suitable location for installing the pavilion on the drawing.

Li Yu came over and saw a few lines drawn on the drawing.

Old Wang looked excited and gestured at the drawings and said:

"Build a corridor to the left at the gate, turn at a right angle next to the sweet-scented osmanthus tree, and lead to the living room. Then build a short corridor in the middle, and place the pavilion near the west wall. You can add a stone slab walkway on the other side, close to the wall, all the way to the corner of the corridor..."

Li Yu didn't understand the drawings and had no renderings, so some of them didn't understand.

Wang Chunxi saw that he was confused, so he simply put down the drawings and took him for a walk.

“The place I just walked through is full of corridors, with vermilion pillars and glazed tiles of the same color as the main building. There are places to sit on both sides of the corridor, which is convenient for tourists to take pictures...”

After all, As someone who often does this kind of work, Lao Wang easily explained the plan for the front yard.

Li Yu imagined it and felt that the problem of empty front yard was solved at once, and this corridor could also echo the corridor in front of the small building and restaurant, which would be very beautiful.

"I think this plan is good, but will the construction time be very long?"

Li Yu is still thinking about cooperating with Hao Zhenzhen. If it takes too long, maybe Hao Zhenzhen will I'm looking for another B&B to cooperate with. Anyway, she just sells Hanfu, so it doesn't matter who she cooperates with.

Wang Chunxi said with a smile:

"Quickly, go back and find out the ground level, hit it with a tamping machine, and then you can install it directly. The corridor and pavilion are semi-finished products. We shipped them two It can be installed in a day and painted a few times to ensure it looks like pure solid wood.”

It does sound simple.

Li Yu said with a smile:

"Then please leave it to Captain Wang."

"Xiao Li, you are being polite when you say this, isn't the backyard also being renovated? Let's go. , take me to see it first.”

The two walked through the living room to the backyard. Wang Chunxi held the drawings and wrote and drew again, and finally decided to divide the backyard into two halves, and make one half with lotus flowers. The other half of the pool's garden is paved with antique floor tiles to serve as a martial arts arena.

"The dividing line is the corridor, which separates directly from the middle. The end of the corridor is raised three meters to make steps, and the top is built into a viewing platform in the shape of the Great Wall, which is suitable for tourists to view and take photos."

Yard. At the end is a courtyard wall. Beyond the courtyard wall, probably less than a hundred meters away, is the cliff facing the opposite side.

If you raise the area against the wall and build a Great Wall-style viewing platform, the scenery will be absolutely amazing.

And after raising it, the originally ordinary yard has layers and looks more beautiful. Let alone taking pictures, it is no problem to film TV series here.

“Where are the stables?”

Since it is a Hanfu-themed B&B, stables are essential.

Not only can the stables be used for taking photos, but when business is good, you can also rent a few horses from Longqishan for tourists to take riding photos.

It would be very convenient if Lu Bu came riding a red rabbit horse one day.

Wang Chunxi pointed to the courtyard wall on the other side of the martial arts arena:

"Just build a row against the courtyard wall. It will not affect the layout of the courtyard, and it will also make it easier to clean up horse manure."< br>


It seems that Lao Wang has taken it into consideration.

But for such a big war, 200,000 is not enough, right?

Li Yu asked tentatively:

"Captain Wang, how much budget do you think this will cost?" Wang Chunxi took out his mobile phone, clicked on the calculator, and calculated it carefully:

"The total cost is about half a million. Of course, you need to use cheaper materials. I can make it in my early forties. There are cheaper materials, but the quality is too poor. I personally don't recommend you to use them. ”

Originally I just wanted to spend 200,000 yuan for a small upgrade, but unexpectedly it jumped to 500,000 yuan.

This made Li Yu hesitate.

But Lao Wang’s design will definitely improve the B&B significantly.

Thinking of this, his heart skipped a beat, and his old habit of adding budgets came back again.

Five hundred thousand is half a million. Anyway, there is no business now, so it is better to do everything to the extreme, so as not to go back to business, want to upgrade but can't find the time.

"Then five hundred thousand. Captain Wang, you have to use good materials and not fool around."

Wang Chunxi patted her chest and promised:

"Don't worry. , if you have any quality problems, please come to me.”

He went to the car and took out several standard contracts, filled in all aspects of the data, and took out the official seal of his small construction company from his bag. Signed a contract with Li Yu.

According to the terms of the contract, Li Yu paid an advance payment of 100,000 yuan.

After receiving the money, Wang Chunxi drove back without stopping, summoned his workers to start work, and prepared the building materials to be used.

After he left, the sweet potatoes were almost roasted.

Li Yu took it out to dry, and then served it to Brother Dao when it was no longer hot.

At the archaeological team station, Zhou Ruotong finished sorting out her work summary for the week and began to pack her personal belongings. She would take the high-speed train back to the capital with her classmates after the next morning shift.

It was quite busy when I went back this time. Not only did I have to sort out various outdoor climbing equipment, but I also had to help Li Yu copy a copy of the Three Kingdoms materials compiled by his uncle.

While I was busy, my second uncle Zhou Bingliang suddenly called me.

"Tongtong, the results of the X-ray comparison test are out. The two silver ingots are from the Northern Song Dynasty. The guys in the museum made a bet with me, and one of them lost to me an old jade ornament that I had collected for many years. They are all toads, cabbage, Maitreya, Pixiu and the like, what do you want?”

Zhou Ruotong didn’t expect that his second uncle was calling about this.

She had seen those silver ingots and confirmed that they were real, not counterfeit, but they were just too new to be real compared to the silver ingots on the market.

She said:

"Just give me the biggest one. I'm going to give it to a friend."

I wanted to go to a B&B for dinner after returning from Beijing on the weekend, so I just gave it to Li Yu. The front desk didn't even have any decorations, it looked empty.

Zhou Bingliang agreed wholeheartedly:

"Okay, okay, when they deliver it I will pick the biggest one and pack it up and send it to your home... By the way, Tongtong, that person will be there in a short time. He took out two silver ingots. I guess he still has some. Can you ask him to give out a few more?”

Zhou Ruotong gave a bitter smile:

“Are you planning to ask me to rush you?”

“No, no, I’m just saying casually, the museum is almost ready now, it doesn’t matter if there are more or less silver ingots. It would be great if there is a treasure that can be used as a treasure."

Zhou Ruotong knew what his second uncle was planning:

"The seller always said that it was a friend who paid off the debt, not his own. Thing, don’t worry, second uncle, there may be more later.”

The B&B business is so bad, if Li Yu still has antiques in his hands, he will probably continue to sell them.

Zhou Bingliang hummed:

"Okay, help me keep an eye on it. By the way, your uncle recently wanted to collect an antique from the Han Dynasty. I heard that you helped me find two silver ingots. He I also want your help. You can just deal with it superficially. You still have to hurry up and help me find the cultural relics of the Song Dynasty. "

You guys are really brothers and sisters... Zhou Ruotong was so tired, she agreed. After chatting for a few more words, he hung up the phone.

After packing his personal belongings, Zhou Ruotong returned to Guanlan Mingshu Community. He simply brought a few clothes with him, then chartered a car with his classmates and went straight to the high-speed rail station to return to Beijing for the weekend.

At the same time, at the door of the B&B, Li Yu looked a little surprised at the five carts full of cabbage.

"This is two acres of land, eighteen thousand kilograms, where can I unload it, boss?"

Xiao Ju jumped out of the car, her face flushed with exhaustion.

Li Yu originally wanted her to unload it in the yard, but he probably couldn't unload it with so much, so he quickly opened the door to the backyard and unloaded it on the open space.

Village director Wang Shengli also followed, and he told Li Yu:

"The freshly dug cabbage has a high humidity, so it needs to be dried in the sun for a few days until the leaves on the surface are dry before being collected. Otherwise, it will rot in a few days and cannot be stored."

Also Is there such a saying?

Li Yu quickly wrote it down, and when he saw Lu Bu, he told him.

But when will this guy come?

It would be great if there was a walkie-talkie that spans time and space. Just call him over when you prepare the supplies without delaying things.

Just as he was muttering, he saw Brother Dao sneaking into the backyard to watch the fun, and a thought suddenly flashed in his mind.

I can't contact Lu Bu, but Brother Dao might be able to.

He walked towards the golden retriever with a smile:

"Gouzi, it's time for you to contribute to the family again..."
