154. Chapter 154: Renovating the New House



Yang Qing returned home and put away the beds, sofas and other furniture that were originally in the house. Although these were not high-end items, they could sometimes come in handy.

Anyway, the main point is not to leave anything behind.

Leng Yi started to dismantle the security doors and stainless steel doors in the corridor, which could be used in the future.

After everything was cleaned up, Yang Qing checked again. Except for the parts that were difficult to dismantle, all the other parts of the four rooms on the two floors were gone, and it was almost like a bare house.

Lu Lin was a little emotional. "I'm really reluctant to leave after living here for so long."

Yang Qing smiled and said, "There's nothing to be reluctant about. We will live in a better house in the future."

The three of them stayed until midnight, and only when everyone fell asleep did they quietly leave with Aqi and Xiaoxue.

When they got to a deserted place outside, Yang Qing took out a car and drove towards Yunshan.

It was already daybreak when we arrived at Yunshan. From the foot of the mountain, we could see rows of unfinished buildings. Because they had not been renovated and had been exposed to the sun and rain, the buildings had turned black, and there were patches of black water stains on the walls, as if they were moldy.

"It's a pity about these buildings. The environment here is quite good." Yang Qing said.

Moreover, the roads have been repaired and are open to traffic, which is very convenient.

But because it is an unfinished building, no one lives there.

Chinese people don’t like such uninhabited places. They are like ghost towns, full of gloomy energy and no one dares to come.

If it were closer to the city, migrant workers and homeless people who really have nowhere to live might occupy the unfinished buildings, but this place is too remote, there are no supporting living facilities, and life is inconvenient, so there are not even homeless people.

Leng Yi drove up the main road. "Let's choose the building at the top. It's high up there, maybe we can avoid the tsunami. We can also overlook the whole mountain. Someone will know when they come."

"Okay!" Yang Qing nodded. Leng Yi was familiar with the place, so he naturally listened to him.

When they reached the top of the mountain, they saw a two-story building. It wasn’t very big, but it was exactly what Yang Qing and the others needed.

You don't need a very big house for three people to live in. A house that is too big will be very troublesome to decorate.

Leng Yi parked the car in front of the iron gate of the villa, got out of the car, used a pair of large pliers to cut the lock on the iron gate, opened the iron gate and drove the car in.

There is a yard in front of the building, which is full of weeds. However, because the temperature has been too high recently, the grass has withered, and the building looks dilapidated.

The two-story building has no doors or windows, and the outer wall is made of only a layer of rough cement, which is also mottled and covered with black water stains.

As soon as the car door opened, Aqi and Xiaoxue ran out first. After the three of them got out of the car, Lu Lin looked around and said, "This place is actually quite nice. There's even a yard."

Leng Yi nodded and said, "We'll clean up the weeds in the yard later, and it will be much better."

Walking into the building, you will see that the layout of the bedrooms, kitchens and bathrooms are all ready built. There is no need to use bricks to separate them. They all have basic cement, but the walls are not painted white.

It rained before, and water flowed down from the upstairs, leaving black water stains all over the walls.

There is still a lot of construction waste on the ground.

The two little ones were very curious and sniffed around everywhere.

"Aqi and Xiaoxue, go play outside first!" Leng Yi called out to the two children and said to them, "Let's clean up the building first. We'll start the renovation later. It'll just be a simple renovation."

Yang Qing nodded, took out a broom, trash can and other things from the space, swept the garbage in the building first, and then threw everything behind the building.

"How do we install this? It's so big." Lu Lin looked up and down the stairs. They were not decorators and had no idea how to do it.

"Actually, this will do, Syrian style." Yang Qing said jokingly.

"Didn't we sweep up some self-leveling cement paint yesterday? We can just use that." Leng Yi said, "It's easy. Pour it on the ground, spread it out, and it will be ready to use after it dries in a few hours."

"I know that one. Our company used it before. It's very convenient and cheap." Lu Lin said.

Yang Qing took out the self-leveling cement paint from the space as soon as he said it.

I swept all the rooms on the first floor again, scraped off the bumps of cement that had dripped on the ground with a knife, and sucked up all the dust with a vacuum cleaner. I tried to keep the floor clean, which would make it much easier to apply self-leveling flooring.

I don’t plan to use the second floor because it’s too hot. I’ll just use the first floor. The second floor can be used for storage, so there’s no need to renovate it.

But doors and windows still need to be installed to prevent someone from coming up and stealing things in the future.

Yang Qing took out the solar generator, placed the generator panel on the top floor, and installed the water tank, so that the basic living facilities were in place.

Leng Yi first poured self-leveling paint into the room, and then slowly spread it with tools. He used light gray paint, which is not easy to get dirty.

Once every corner has been painted, exit the room and let it dry naturally.

There are three rooms, a bathroom and a kitchen on the first floor. All three rooms are painted. The bathroom and kitchen do not need to be waterproofed. After all, it is a temporary residence, so there is no need to worry about water seeping in. There is land underneath, so let it seep in.

The main reason for waterproofing in a building is to prevent water from seeping in and affecting the residents on the lower floors. Here, there is no need to worry about this problem at all.

The weather was hot, and by the time Leng Yi started working on the self-leveling floor in the living room, the flooring in the other rooms was almost dry.

Yang Qing and Lu Lin couldn't go in for the time being, so they were fully armed, wearing hats, warm clothes, sunscreen masks and gloves, and went to the yard to clear the weeds.

Aqi and Xiaoxue were running around and having a lot of fun.

After the weeds are cleared and the self-leveling paint in the living room has dried.

When you walk in, the floor is light gray, the surface is smooth and delicate, as if coated with a layer of film, and it is very clean.

"Wow, it's changed a lot." Lu Lin exclaimed. Although she had only done some work on the floor, the feeling was completely different. It looked like it was already habitable.

Leng Yi smiled and said, "Let's ventilate it again and install the doors and windows in the afternoon. I'll do the bathroom and kitchen first."

Yang Qing took out a toilet, a washbasin, and a shower.

It's such a hot day, the water in the water tank will be scalding hot if it's exposed to the sun upstairs. There's no need for a water heater. You can just connect the water pipe down from upstairs.

In the kitchen, Yang Qing directly took out a simple integrated stove, which combined a gas stove and a range hood. It was very convenient and did not take up much space. It was completely enough for the three of them.

Just have another cabinet to store pots and pans.

Leng Yi installed the toilet and connected the water pipe from upstairs, mainly for use in the kitchen and bathroom.

Then he started installing doors and windows. The rooms of him, Yang Qing, and Lu Lin were all equipped with bulletproof glass windows, which were removed from Bai Yi's villa.

The other rooms are equipped with windows removed from the seventh floor. They are explosion-proof and not so easy to break.

The main door was also equipped with a bulletproof door taken from Bai Yi, and it fit perfectly.

After a busy day, the villa had all the basic living facilities.

Yang Qing entered her and Leng Yi's master bedroom and hung a thin island-style blanket on the wall where the bed was to be placed. It not only served as a decoration, but also kept the dust off the wall.

Then I took out the bed I had slept on before and put the mattress, sheets and pillows on it.

There is a bedside table and a small table lamp on each side of the bed.

There is also a Bohemian-style rug next to the bed.

Place a wardrobe on the other wall, add a dressing table, and put a box of green plants in the corner.

Place a single sofa under the window and a standing desk lamp next to it.

A bare house that originally had nothing in it suddenly became warm and romantic.
