Lin Tian arranged the renovation. After returning home, he packed up everything. Actually, Lin Tian didn't have much stuff at that time. What he needed to pack was nothing more than a large box of books that Hu San had brought, his own bedding and some daily clothes. There were also a few worn-out tables, chairs and benches that were thrown away by the previous tenant, but Lin Tian didn't plan to take them anymore, so he asked the Mu family master to make new ones.
But Lin Tian still hired a tricycle to send all these things back home. You can't rely on space for everything, otherwise people will wonder where your things are. If you can't explain it clearly, do things more cautiously to avoid unnecessary trouble for yourself.
After saying hello to his parents, he still had a place to stay when he returned home. Originally, Lin Tian's home was an independent small courtyard. Before the family split up, he and his second brother lived in the ear room. Now that ear room was also empty, and Lin Tian could stay there anytime he wanted. As for meals, he just had to pay a few dollars for the meal to his sister-in-law.
After packing up, Lin Tian went to Wu's house to say hello. After all, he was now the manager of the compound. If a stranger came to the compound to do renovations, he had to say hello to him. He also told Wu that his house had been converted into a private house, and he had also informed the street about the renovation. Because he wanted to build a bathroom in the house and connect the sewer to the street outside, it was necessary to report it.
But Director Wu was also quite polite. After all, it was broad daylight, and there were many old women in the hospital who were not working, so there was nothing to worry about. They just said hello and that was it. After all, Lin Tian had completed all the necessary procedures.
When the tricycle arrived the next morning, I loaded all the things onto it and met the third uncle Yan Fugui when I walked out the door.
"Lin Tian, are you moving?" Yan Fugui asked in confusion.
"Move back home and live there for a few days, and renovate the house here." Lin Tian said to Yan Fugui.
"I won't be here for about half a month. I'll come back after the renovation is finished."
"The work here is all about labor and materials. I just pay you after you finish the work. I have also reported this to Director Wu." Lin Tian explained, if you don't say hello and explain to these monsters, who knows what trouble will happen later?
Although the things have been packed up, they still have to stay here for one night, but Lin Tian doesn't care, just sleep in the space. Because tomorrow morning Master Jin will come with the construction team, and the carpenter who was previously scheduled will also come tomorrow morning to check the size.
The next morning, as soon as Yan Fugui opened the door, Master Jin came with more than ten people, and the carpenter also came.
"Xiao Lin, Xiao Lin, the decoration team is here." Yan Fugui led the group of people to the backyard, shouting as he walked.
Lin Tian took out a cigarette and handed it to Yan Fugui to express his gratitude. Then he distributed some to Master Jin and the people he brought with him.
"Master Jin, from today on, this place is left to you." Lin Tian said to Master Jin with a smile.
"No problem, I'll take care of it. Let me introduce you to Master Zhang who is here to make furniture for you. The old people in Master Zhang's family used to work for the palace." He introduced at this time.
Lin Tian looked at the middle-aged man who looked a bit fat, then bowed and said, "Hello, Master Zhang."
Master Zhang had a calm expression and simply cupped his hands.
Lin Tian led Master Zhang into the house, then used chalk to mark several locations throughout the house.
"I plan to build a Chinese medicine cabinet here," and then he gestured beside it.
"Build a bookshelf here, on top of the desk, then there will be a desk underneath, plus a chair with an armchair." Lin Tian watched Master Zhang measuring and taking notes with a ruler in hand.
"Then build a long table and four chairs at this location. It can be used for daily meals and receiving guests. It would be even better if the table could be made foldable." Lin Tian pointed to another place and gave a rough range.
"I have agreed with Master Jin that the second floor will be divided into two bedrooms. We will make a double bed and a single bed. And then we will make two bedside tables." Lin Tian gestured at the space above his head. Needless to say, carpenters are very experienced.
Then he led Master Zhang to the location of another kitchen. "I plan to make the kitchen smaller, and then put cabinets on this side, put some small cabinets on top, and then make a few large cabinets on the bottom."
"By the way, I discussed with Master Jin before about installing some heaters in the house. We may need to build some wooden partitions at that time. You can discuss this with Master Jin."
Lin Tian remembered and continued, "Oh, and also the specific sizes of the furniture in the house. What I just said was just a rough estimate. You should discuss it with Master Jin when the time comes, and don't make it too big or too small." Lin Tian gave a lot of instructions in a long-winded manner. After all, they would be living here for many years to come, and it would be difficult to make changes if the house was not to their liking.
"Boss, don't worry. I've been doing this for so many years, and I'm sure you'll be satisfied with everything." Lin Tian also saw that Master Zhang didn't like to talk much, but his words were still very confident.
"I hope to use some good wood for the medicine cabinet, tables, chairs and bed in the house, preferably mahogany. If you have rosewood or something like that, that would also be fine." Lin Tian put forward his request.
"Rosewood is a bit expensive. As for red sandalwood, I can only make small pieces because I don't have big pieces on hand, such as bedside tables." Master Zhang was secretly surprised. The cost was not small.
“It’s okay. After we do it once, we won’t have to do it again for years. My family paid for it. They said we can just split the family business.” Lin Tian also explained the source of the money. Otherwise, if he spent so much money on a stranger, Lin Tian was afraid that he would report him.
