Chapter 212 Renovation of the Siheyuan



"I don't know how much gold I have to spend this time. It feels like the gold mountain has lost weight..." Xu Jianguo muttered as he wrote.

In fact, he was purely obsessed with money. Let alone a mountain of gold, he had not even spent all the leftovers he brought back from Treasure Island.

After an hour of writing and drawing, Xu Jianguo finally finalized the list of items to be purchased.

In terms of vehicles, Xu Jianguo chose the 6x6 version of the G63 and the Unimog off-road RV. The reason for choosing these two vehicles is, firstly, because of his recognition of the brand, and secondly, because he had owned both cars in his previous life, so he would be relatively familiar with operating them.

Unimog off-road RV

In addition to the car itself, Xu Jianguo also noted some of his modification needs in the purchase list, and purchased two underground oil storage tanks and refueling nozzles for gas stations. Each oil storage tank is 80 cubic meters and can hold approximately 80,000 liters of fuel. He also purchased some No. 98 gasoline and No. -30 diesel, and requested that the system be installed in the oil storage tank and shipped together.

In terms of clothing, in addition to regular windbreakers and hiking shoes, Xu Jianguo also prepared down jackets and down pants to cope with the cold climate in high altitude areas.

What was left were some food and medicine. As for weapons, Xu Jianguo did not buy any. He had a black iron dagger as a cold weapon, and if that didn't work, he could use the dragon spirit needle as a hidden weapon. He was not very good at using hot weapons. Although he had shot a gun, his accuracy was really not good. If he could hit forty rings with ten bullets, it was considered an extraordinary performance.

After putting the purchase list into the mailbox and looking at the purchase amount displayed on it, Xu Jianguo almost vomited blood.

240 kilograms of gold, if calculated at 300 yuan per gram, it means that Xu Jianguo spent more than 70 million yuan to buy these things.

If calculated based on the current black market price, one gram of gold is equivalent to approximately 7,680 small yellow croakers. Previously, when Xu Jianguo was trading with Mr. Jin on the black market, one small yellow croaker was priced at 312.5 yuan. 7,680 small yellow croakers would be 2.4 million yuan. The purchasing power of 2.4 million yuan in the 1960s was no less than 200 million yuan in later generations. It can be seen that there was a reason why he felt the pain.

Xu Jianguo felt that he could not look at the quotation in his hand any longer. He was afraid that if he continued to look at it, he would not be willing to buy it.

Putting the quotation on the table, Xu Jianguo silently closed his eyes, and used his mind to dig out gold bit by bit from the foot of the Golden Mountain, and then put it into the purchasing mailbox.

[Ding, the courtyard is too small to store the items purchased by the host. It is recommended that the host renovate and expand the house.]

The system's voice suddenly came into Xu Jianguo's mind. He thought about it and decided that he should make some changes.

He pushed open the door and walked out of the supermarket, looking at the space and began to conceive. After a moment, Xu Jianguo closed his eyes, and the layout of the space began to slowly change.

Xu Jianguo moved the courtyard house to the foot of Jinshan Mountain, added a floor based on the original layout of the house, moved the two bedrooms to the second floor, and added a bathroom and stairwell in the middle of the second floor where the main hall originally was. Outside the second-floor bedrooms and main hall is a large balcony, which can be accessed through the door of the original main hall on the second floor.

There are two rooms on the first floor, one is used as the living and dining room, and the other is used as his study. The main room in the middle is still used as the kitchen. A secret room is set up behind one wall of the study, and the space portal is moved into the secret room. In addition, there is a downward staircase in the secret room, connecting to the storage room. The area of ​​this storage room is the same as that of the study. Xu Jianguo plans to use it as a new wine cellar.

The area of ​​the yard has increased, more than twice as large as before. The Seven-Star Teleportation Array is still embedded in the center of the yard. To its south, facing the supermarket door, is a wishing pool composed of strange rocks and pools. Xu Jianguo uses it as a screen wall.

The location of the well remains unchanged, still in the corner. In the other corner there is a large doghouse, which serves as Xiao Hei's residence.

The other facilities in the yard remain unchanged. The supermarket, toilets, utility room and warehouse are still in their original locations, but the area is much larger than before.

Wen Sitian, who was reading a story to Funniu in the house, suddenly felt a slight shock. She quickly put down the comic book in her hand and stood up. When she came to the window, she found that her line of sight had become higher, and she opened her mouth in surprise.

When Xu Jianguo walked back to the yard from the supermarket, he happened to see Wen Sitian standing in front of the bedroom window on the second floor. He smiled and waved at her.

Wen Sitian came back to her senses from her shock, opened the door and walked out, only then she noticed the changes outside. She went up the stairs to the first floor, opened the door and walked into the yard.

"Jianguo, why did the house become taller? It scared me!" Wen Sitian asked.

"Haha, don't be afraid. I think the house is a bit small, so I renovated it. We will live on the second floor from now on so that we can see the situation of the entire farm." Xu Jianguo said with a smile.

"Well, I've never lived in such a nice house. That girl Funiu must like it too! I wonder when she will be better?" Wen Sitian said.

"Don't worry, Funiu will get better soon. When she gets better, I will build a slide for her from the second floor so that this girl can be happy." Xu Jianguo comforted.

"Well, okay! By the way, are you still leaving?" Wen Sitian continued to ask.

"Let's wait for two days. I need to prepare. Then I will go with the Taoist priest so that we can take care of each other. This time we are going to the plateau. It is said that the scenery there is very beautiful. When I finish my business, I will take you out for a walk. You can't stay in the space all the time." Xu Jianguo said softly.

"Okay!" Wen Sitian nodded, looking very happy.

After Wen Sitian returned to her room, Xu Jianguo began to continue his renovation project.

First, the liquor stored in the wine cellar outside the supermarket was moved to the underground storage room, and then some trees were taken from the Mihun Pond outside the space and planted around the yard. Outside the woods, there was still a circular river. With the decoration of green trees and river water, the entire courtyard became full of vitality.

Imaginary places

When planting trees, Xu Jianguo also deliberately left a large piece of open space to store the vehicles, oil tanks and gas pumps he purchased.

After doing all this, Xu Jianguo communicated with the system and distributed the items he purchased to the designated location.

Xu Jianguo stood at the edge of the open space, watching two huge oil tanks and two familiar cars appear in front of him. The Unimog, which originally looked tall and mighty, now looked so petite and cute when compared with the oil tanks.

Xu Jianguo used his mind to place the oil tank underground, and then installed the diesel and gasoline refueling nozzles with the help of the system. Then he ran to the warehouse in the courtyard to check other things.
