She could start construction of her house because she had bought all the surrounding land. All the land was in individual hands, which made it convenient for her. Now it was no longer just 20 acres of land, but more than 40 acres and almost 50 acres, which was much larger than the Liuyuan Garden in Suzhou.
Now the time is almost up and we can no longer let it lie idle. We found pictures of the Liuyuan Garden and based our design on its architectural style. We also found a map of the restoration of the Grand View Garden and asked Lin Shihao to design a garden for her based on it.
Her land was not as big as the Grand View Garden, but she could build fewer courtyards, and her family did not have so many "gold hairpins".
Now that several of her factories are under construction and policies have settled down, it is time to start construction on her properties.
The first is the abandoned house outside Gusu City. She has bought it for two years and has not moved. Now that the factory here has started construction, she will come here more often. It happens that she is in Yuhang now, so let's start from here.
Lin Shihao sent the drawing to her after he revised it. It was beautiful, but the robot was different. The area was calculated very reasonably and the aesthetics were completely online. It not only retained the ancient charm of the garden, but also added modern or interstellar elements inside.
The main purpose is to make the owner live more comfortably and look more pleasant.
For example, parking lots, toilets, air conditioners, etc., the workers are still the same as before. The modern construction team laid the wires and pipes in the early stage, and the old craftsmen came in the later stage. Only the houses built by them have that antique charm.
The house in Hai City on Jinyang Street was renovated according to the appearance of the original house, and the house on Qingling Street was also installed with many modern elements on the original basis, which will not affect the layout and make people's life more convenient.
One advantage of this era is that many of those craftsmen are still alive, and they have many apprentices, so it is very easy to restore the previous style.
She left someone to look after both places and returned to Kyoto because Lin Jiadong was going back to the United States and she couldn't hang out outside anymore.
"Little sister, the school is on vacation now, don't you want to go back with me to visit? Your family misses you very much!" Lin Jiadong had been saying this all the way, and was still persuading her before getting on the plane.
"Third brother, I have a lot of things to do in China and I plan to go to the United States next year, so I won't go this year. Come on in, the phone at home has been installed, if you have anything, just ask someone to call me."
The telephone in her home was installed more than a month ago, but due to policy, private calls can only be made domestic long-distance. International long-distance calls still have to be made at the post office or in foreign-related hotels.
Lin Jiadong sighed helplessly, raised his hand and brushed Lin Ximan's long hair, saying: "Then little sister, you have to take care of yourself. If you have any problems, call me. Have you written down my office and home phone numbers?"
"I've made a note of it. Be sure to call me if you have anything. Come in. Time is running out. Don't miss your boarding. Aren't you coming here in a few months? It won't be long before we meet again. Go ahead." Lin Ximan urged.
How come she didn't realize that this third brother was a chatterbox?
The construction of the house in Kyoto started after Lin Jiadong left. The east wing, west garden, underground first floor and second floor parking lot were started at the same time.
Four courtyards were built in the east wing, imitating the design of the six east palaces of the Forbidden City, except that the traditional rear hall was missing. The rear hall in the Forbidden City was for the palace servants to live in, and the master of a palace lived in the main hall. In her design, the front hall was used as a living room and dining room, and the rear hall was the living place.
Therefore, the rear hall is built two steps higher than the front hall, so that people can tell at a glance where the main hall is. The main feature of these four courtyards is the red walls and black tiles, full of ancient charm, the kind of check-in holy place in later generations.
At the end of the east wing, a small entertainment plaza is built where you can play ball, jump rope, etc. Other things can also be placed around it. It is hard to say what they are now, but space will be reserved anyway.
Building a garden is simple. Just build it according to the blueprint, because it will be beautiful after it is completed. There will be a pond for boating, a flower garden for rest and scenery, and a pavilion overlooking the lake. There will be a new scene at every step.
Fortunately, she will go to school soon, otherwise it would be annoying to hear the ding-dong all day. The preliminary works here are much bigger, because the underground parking lot needs to be dug, and the pond in the garden also needs to be dug.
Fortunately, all the work in the East Courtyard is on the ground. After burying the pipes and wires, they started to build the house on the ground. The blue bricks nowadays are much easier to get than in the past two years. The construction team has connections, and they are responsible for contacting the manufacturers.
The wood used was the golden nanmu in the system for the roof and furniture. She had a lot of this kind of tree in her warehouse, all of which had been planted before, just for use at this time.
She also told the masters to use their skills to build a beautiful house. These people have worked together several times before, and they all know that Lin Ximan is not short of money. As long as the work is done beautifully, she will give a big red envelope when the settlement is made, so the masters work very hard for her.
Maybe everyone was blown by the spring breeze of reform this year. Starting this year, more people have been buying courtyard houses. Except for a few with property rights issues and addresses that might be demolished, she bought the rest.
At this time, the compensation for demolition is not as much as in later generations, so it is better not to buy such a house.
Zhao Kui was very good at cleaning and demolition. He now had a group of people working on this. It was another way to make money. Lin Ximan didn't care about it. As long as the job was done well, it didn't matter who got the money, right?
