Chapter 438: Looking for Someone Who Can Do Carpentry
In the meantime, Jun Qingqing and Lu Yanchen went to a state-owned restaurant for lunch, and it was not until after three in the afternoon that they had completely walked through all the courtyards.
During this period, Jun Qingqing also roughly outlined the style she wanted and the rooms she needed to have in the courtyard for different purposes. For example, the room next to Tsinghua University where she would go to school later and plan to live for a long time would need a room specifically designed to be used for making medicine.
And the yard that was going to be used as a model house during the initial negotiations was also specifically mentioned.
Lu Yanchen was standing by and was recording in detail the requirements mentioned by the little girl in a notebook, trying his best to do his best.
At the same time, the slightly distinctive corners of each yard or objects that cannot be moved, such as wells, trees, etc., are also marked out in the notebook.
He also promised Jun Qingqing that the temporary courtyard would be cleaned up before she started school.
As for other places, I will first make a rough design drawing, and during the process will also list the materials needed after construction begins.
Listening to Lu Yanchen making plans item by item in a clear and organized manner, Jun Qingqing felt thankful for the umpteenth time that she had found this capable person in advance.
"Uncle Lu, when you have the blueprints and other things ready, call the number I left."
Hearing this, Lu Yanchen nodded to show that he understood.
After thinking for a while, he said, "Besides, there are many yards, and it is possible to draw these drawings while the construction is underway.
After all, after finishing work in one yard, you need to rest for a few days before starting the next one.
We don't ask for a quick completion, but the quality must be guaranteed. ”
After saying this, he suddenly asked, "By the way, is there anyone in your team who is good at carpentry?"
Hearing this, Lu Yanchen immediately replied: "Yes, I said at the beginning that among my group, there are two childhood friends who came from Shanghai together, and one of them is particularly good at carpentry.
Their family’s situation is similar to that of the Lu family. They both have ancestral craftsmanship, but they only know this craft. ”
Jun Qingqing understood what this said, which meant that the man did not have a lot of complicated relationships behind him just because it was a family craft, and there was no family inheritance like him that was coveted by others.
Lu Yanchen knew that the girl in front of him had guessed what he meant, and he smiled slightly awkwardly.
At that time, my mouth was faster than my brain, and I said it directly. In fact, I also wanted to help my childhood friend.
Then he told Jun Qingqing in detail what had happened to his childhood friend.
He is a truly honest person, but too honest, which is why he was bullied in the Shanghai Stock Exchange.
His father was still at home before, because he was also an old man who had fought against the Japanese when he was young. Legend has it that there is a hunting rifle in the house that was secretly left behind after he defeated the bad guys.
Perhaps because of the more he talked, the more outrageous it became, plus the scar on his father's face, no one dared to really step forward to provoke him.
Since he was a child, apart from going to school, he has devoted all his attention to carpentry.
Later, when the government prohibited private trade, his family still made some furniture and exchanged it for money and goods with people in the alley.
After a long time, it became famous in the neighborhood.
There was a family doing a similar business across the street. Not only did they charge 8 cents more for each item, or asked for an extra half pound of coarse grains or something, but there were often problems with the ingredients. Gradually, no old residents went there anymore.
The only chance to open the business is to kill strangers.
Among the newly moved families, seven out of ten have been cheated.
Later, his father passed away, leaving only his childhood friend at home. The carpenter in the other family became more and more domineering, and when he finally knew that I was coming to Beijing, he followed me with another person.
After hearing this, Jun Qingqing couldn't help but sigh that everyone who chooses to leave their hometown has a story!
"Okay, I'll draw some furniture designs when I get home, and then I'll ask your childhood friend to make them. I'll pay you per piece.
You can also ask him if he wants to get a share of the profits from me, just like you do.
However, if you choose this method, you must take the pill. You can discuss this privately in advance.
Just tell me the result directly on the day when you give me the drawings. ”
Lu Yanchen took note of this matter and secretly decided that since Qing Yatou had proposed an idea that would surely develop well in the future, he must try his best to get his childhood friend to agree with it.
He left a copy of the key to each yard with the other person, and then drove him back to the entrance of the alley where his home was.
In the following days, Jun Qingqing watched Si Qianqian being busy every day.
I couldn't help but ask, "Mom, what's wrong with you recently?"
"Aren't you going to start school soon? I think both the school dormitory and the small courtyard outside the school need to be equipped with new things.
I have prepared a lot of things that can be exchanged and purchased.
And although you are not planning to live at the school except for military training, we still have to prepare things there, so that if there are any special circumstances one day, you can also go to the dormitory to rest. ”
Jun Qingqing was deeply touched by her mother's arrangement.
I smiled and said, "Thank you, Mom!!!"
These days, I also learned that my two cousins also bought a courtyard house, but because it is a bit far from Tsinghua University, they decided to live with Jun Muyan.
I heard from my grandfather that my uncle, aunt, aunt and uncle-in-law were also preparing things for their son these days.
It seems that no matter how old the children are, parents will instinctively worry about them.
When I received Lu Yanchen's call, it had been five days since we last met.
We agreed to meet at his courtyard house the next day, and then he hung up the phone.
