Originally, Jianguo planned to do as he had done before, and wait until the train started moving before taking his whole family into the space.
But since Little Hongdou got on the train, her big eyes, full of curiosity, began to look around, and her eyes were full of curiosity.
The little girl would crawl around in the soft sleeper car, then use her little hands to open the car window to look at the scenery outside. From time to time, she would look back at her mother and brothers and sisters, pointing her fingers outside and giggling, making the originally boring journey different. From time to time, the laughter of the family could be heard in the sleeper.
Although with the development of the country and the advancement of technology, the speed of trains has become much faster than before, but due to the large number of stops in between, it still took nearly twenty hours to get from Jingzhou to Jinling.
It was around seven o'clock in the morning when the family walked out of Jinling West Station.
When they set out, there were nine people including Xiao Hongdou, but by the time they walked out of Jinling West Station, there were eleven people. The two extra people were naturally Fu Bo and Du Yu.
As for Xu Xiaoshi, he was left in the space.
Everyone's luggage was also taken back into the space by Xu Jianguo.
After leaving the train station, the group walked towards a small alley not far from Jinling West Station. There, there were two military jeeps parked. They were left there overnight by Fu Bo the night before.
As for the origin of the jeep, it was naturally made by Xu Shiyi's technology factory, and the license plate hanging on the car was indeed issued by the Jingzhou Vehicle Management Office.
The people driving the car were naturally Fu Bo and Du Yu. Their first stop was not the Jinling Army Command College, but they went straight to the Confucius Temple.
When the country opened up its housing sales policy a few years ago, Xu Jianguo bought properties in many places across the country, and all the houses he bought were old houses with a sense of age.
Like the courtyard houses in Jingzhou, the old Western-style houses in Huzhou, the Jiangnan villas in Suzhou and Hangzhou, and even Xiacheng in Minzhou bought an old house with a banyan tree in the yard.
This courtyard in Jinling is located on Gongyuan Street, northeast of Confucius Temple. Less than 200 meters away from the gate of the old house is the Panchi of Qinhuai River.
The reason why Xu Jianguo chose this place was due to his memories of his previous life.
He still remembered that when he went to Jinling to inspect real estate projects, he considered many plots of land around Confucius Temple, and the one that impressed him the most was the large area of old houses on Gongyuan Street.
According to the local reception staff in Jinling at that time, this old house was not included in the land auction, and it is likely that it will not be auctioned in the future. The houses on this old street have become protected buildings in Jinling City and even Jiangzhou Province (fictitious, please do not take it personally). They have important historical significance and are no less precious than the courtyard houses in the second ring road of Jingzhou.
So when Xu Jianguo learned that the country had opened up housing transactions, he directly arranged for Fu Bo to come to Nanjing and acquire an old house on Gongyuan Street in his name.
Some people may ask, considering Xu Jianguo’s financial resources, since this place is so good, why doesn’t he buy a few more units?
In fact, it’s not that he doesn’t want to buy, the key is that no one is selling. According to what he knows, many of the houses on this street are ancestral properties of the family, that is, the kind with land certificates. Note that it is a land certificate, not just a real estate certificate.
Unless you are really poor and can't make ends meet, or want to leave Longxia Country and live somewhere else, it is really difficult to buy it.
It was a coincidence when Fu Bo came here. He wandered back and forth in Gongyuan Street and its vicinity for nearly half a month, running around the streets and asking neighbors. Finally, he met a family who were willing to sell their house. In the end, he spent nearly four thousand yuan to buy this old house built in the Ming Dynasty.
The two jeeps drove all the way to the east end of Gongyuan Street. While in the car, little Hongdou, who was held in Funiu's arms, seemed very excited. Her little hands would point out the window from time to time, and then she would babble in baby language that no one could understand. Only a few words could occasionally come out, which barely allowed everyone to guess what she was saying.
After parking the car, the family walked through a narrow alley about twenty to thirty meters long and came to the gate of an old house.
The first thing that catches your eye is the high gray brick wall, which is estimated to be nearly three meters high and is a typical southern architectural style.
After Fu Bo took over this house, Xu Jianguo directly recruited more than a dozen space servants who were far away overseas and sent them to Jinling together.
It took them nearly two months to completely repair and renovate the entire old house. To this end, Xu Jianguo also asked his servants to upgrade their knowledge about Ming Dynasty Southern School architecture.
Of course, from the outside, this house is still full of a strong sense of historical vicissitudes, but many of the internal facilities have long been replaced by more modern and convenient later technological products.
The entire house covers an area of nearly 1,000 square meters. There is a two-story main building from the Ming Dynasty inside, and there is a basement underneath the main building.
There are rockery corridors and a goldfish pond in the courtyard, as well as an octagonal pavilion in the southeast corner. The entire design completely meets all of Xu Jianguo's fantasies about southern architecture.
Normally, Fu Bo, Du Yu and Xu Xiaoshi's job is to take care of Xu Jianguo's properties across the country. They would go in and out from time to time to let the neighbors see that the house is occupied to avoid unnecessary trouble.
This was the first time for Wen Sitian and the children to come here, so they were very happy after entering the courtyard.
The happiest one among them was naturally Xiao Hongdou.
The little girl was held in Funiu's arms. As soon as she entered the yard, her beautiful big eyes fixed on the koi in the goldfish pond. She stretched out her little hand and pointed in the direction of the pond, calling out incoherently, "Auntie, Auntie!"
