Chapter 141 Buying Furniture and Moving
Lin Siqiao had thought about raising the wall before, after the house was transferred.
After all, she could see other people's yards by standing on tiptoe, and others could also see her side.
This made Lin Siqiao feel very insecure.
But she remembered that the last time she stood here, she seemed to have said nothing.
He just glanced at him from a distance, and Lin Siqiao didn't even remember whether he frowned at that time.
Unexpectedly, Lu Jianchuan actually noticed it.
You see, if men have you in their hearts, many times you don’t even have to say it, they will take the initiative to discover it and solve it seriously.
Lin Siqiao didn't stay in the yard for too long and opened the door directly.
All the walls in the house have been repainted in a light milky white color that doesn't look so glaring.
Lin Siqiao looked at each room one by one and found that Lu Jianchuan had basically bought everything he needed.
Adding to what she sent from Shanghai before, it seems that she has everything she needs except the furniture.
As for the things in the bathroom, Lin Siqiao thought about it and decided not to change them.
After all, foreign products such as toilets and bathtubs are difficult to buy nowadays.
Furthermore, Lin Siqiao had also inquired around, and found out that no one in the entire special building had changed it. Since everyone else could use it, there was no reason why she couldn't use it.
At worst, you can just make a few toilet mats. If you want to take a bath, you can just buy some bathtub covers on the platform, which is also very convenient.
Thinking of this, Lin Siqiao took out a pen and paper and wrote down what he wanted to buy in advance.
There is a bed in the master bedroom and the second bedroom. She has a lot of clothes and shoes. Wouldn’t a double-door wardrobe be a little small?
Forget it, I’ll just buy a two-door first, and then buy more if it’s not enough.
You also have to buy a dressing table. Girls always have some bottles and jars.
The study is not very big, so Lin Siqiao plans to buy a set of office chairs so that she can have a place to sit when reading or doing homework.
We must buy a bookshelf. She has a lot of minor courses, so there will be a lot of books at home in the future.
By the way, there are also dining tables and chairs. You have to buy bigger ones, otherwise if a few more guests come to your house, there won’t be enough space for them to sit. It’s better to have a few more stools as well.
As for the sofa and coffee table in the living room, Lin Siqiao didn't want to buy ones with complicated carvings, so something simple would be fine.
The kitchen is still lacking a cupboard. Lin Siqiao thought it would be better to prepare a square table, which would be very convenient for cutting and preparing vegetables.
What else?
Lin Siqiao wrote down as he thought, and soon there were dozens of things, big and small, written down on the paper.
After taking a look, it should be about the same.
The next morning, Lin Siqiao went to the largest second-hand goods exchange market in Beijing.
Although this place is not as famous as Huaiguojiu in Shanghai, there are still many things inside.
There were just too many people in the mall, and Lin Siqiao couldn’t use the platform to estimate prices.
This won’t do!
Lin Siqiao came here just for the antique furniture and he couldn't go back empty-handed no matter what.
The person in charge of the furniture area happened to be there, so Lin Siqiao quietly gave him a pack of Daqianmen cigarettes.
"Uncle, I want to pick out some furniture that's in better condition. Do you have other styles in the warehouse?"
"Come with me."
After the person in charge took the cigarette, his attitude became noticeably warmer, and he took Lin Siqiao directly to the warehouse at the back.
All the items in here were large items, and Lin Siqiao only had a shoulder bag on her body. The person in charge didn't say anything, but just waved his hand and let her in.
Looking at the warehouse piled high with stuff, countless thoughts flashed through Lin Siqiao's eyes.
She quickly took out the list she had made in advance and looked through the items in the order listed.
This time, Lin Siqiao didn’t care whether it was rosewood, golden nanmu, or huanghuali. She just looked at the quotation on the platform.
Anyway, just pick the one that's more expensive.
With no one watching her, she could pick them up quickly.
In less than an hour, all the furniture was ready, and then Lin Siqiao went to the porcelain area, calligraphy and painting area, and ornaments area.
All the furniture in the warehouse has its own corresponding number, and Lin Siqiao wrote down the numbers one by one.
When she came out satisfied and started to announce the number, the person in charge who was waiting outside was stunned.
He thought that if the girl said she was buying a lot, it would probably be two or three items at most.
Although the furniture itself takes up space, he has never seen a customer who comes in to buy a whole cart of furniture.
Besides, the furniture itself is not cheap, and everyone knows that the things they have are all top-quality pieces.
That is to say, the things that have not been collected in the past few years have increased, and the warehouse is almost full to hold them, so they are sold at a low price.
But even so, all these added up would cost seven or eight hundred yuan.
"Little comrade, these things you picked are not cheap."
The person in charge calculated the corresponding number for her. When Lin Siqiao saw his expression, she pretended to be very surprised.
"Ah? So expensive!"
"This...this...Uncle, can you give me a cheaper price?"
Originally, Lin Siqiao had no intention of bargaining. For example, the three-piece set of Huanghuali armchairs she had in hand.
The price quoted on this platform is over 4 million yuan, but in reality she only needs less than 40 yuan to buy this house.
Buying is earning.
But the seller said it was not cheap anymore, so she could only agree with him and say it was expensive!
Sure enough, when the person in charge saw Lin Siqiao's frightened look, he felt quite helpless.
"I knew it would be like this."
"Little comrade, do you think that second-hand goods are worthless when you see the word 'junk goods'?"
Lin Siqiao nodded blankly, "Isn't it?"
"Uncle, this is my first time in a place like this. Is this price expensive?"
To be precise, this was her first time to come to such a place in Beijing.
Well...it can't be considered a lie.
The person in charge covered his head with his hands, looking like he had a headache, and said after a while.
"If you really want it, I'll apply for it for you and see if I can get the odds off."
When Lin Siqiao heard this, he nodded immediately.
"Thank you for your help, uncle. I really want it, otherwise I wouldn't have come all the way here."
In the end, no one knew how this uncle negotiated with the higher-ups, but she got several dozen dollars off when she checked out, and even the shipping fee was waived.
Before three o'clock in the afternoon, the things Lin Siqiao bought were delivered on time.
Several craftsmen were busy from the afternoon until dark and finally moved all the things into the living room.
Lin Siqiao politely escorted the masters out of the family quarters, and then went to the guesthouse to check out.
She was tired after a tiring day and didn't have the energy to clean up.
I ate a few bites and went to sleep.
Early the next morning, when Lin Siqiao was half asleep, he heard a knock on the door.
Apart from Lu Jianchuan, Lin Siqiao couldn't think of anyone else who could come here.
Sure enough, the door opened and standing outside was Lu Jianchuan with an anxious look on his face.
He went to the guesthouse early this morning.
But I was told that Xiao Qiao had already checked out last night.
"Did you go furniture shopping alone yesterday?" Lu Jianchuan's tone sounded somewhat resentful.
“…”
Lin Siqiao had an expression that said, "You know the answer but you still ask."
The furniture in the room has not been put back in its proper places. Anyone with a discerning eye can see that.
Lu Jianchuan emphasized again, "You went there alone."
Lin Siqiao hummed, "Yes."
If she wasn't alone, how could she use the platform to cheat?
But when she saw Lu Jianchuan's expression, she immediately reacted.
I walked up to him and hooked his finger.
The tone was as soft as water.
"Aren't you preparing for that military competition?"
"I just thought that there was no need to call you out for such a small matter."
"Little Joe."
Lu Jianchuan rarely spoke to her in such a serious tone.
"To me, your affairs are never big or small."
"What's more, this place... this will also be our future home."
"I feel I have the need and obligation to get involved."
