Chapter 362 Thirteen Courtyards a Day

"Well! Then I'll go back to the house first."

"it is good."

Lin Ling'er entered the kitchen again, and Li Jiayi turned around and returned to the main room.

Seeing that the fire in the fireplace was not so strong, Li Jiayi hurried over to add some firewood.

Then he took the teapot and made a pot of tea. He lay on the recliner and drank the tea and thought about things.

I don’t know how many houses I can buy this time, but it doesn’t matter even if it’s not many. Anyway, Mr. Wu knows a lot of people, and they are all from his circle.

The next morning, Li Jiayi came to Grandpa Wu's house as promised. When he arrived, there were already several people in Grandpa Wu's house.

If Li Jiayi guessed correctly, these people were going to sell their houses and leave.

"Master Li." Seeing Li Jiayi coming in, Master Wu quickly stood up and called out.

Several middle-aged men also stood up quickly, clasped their fists to Li Jiayi and shouted, "Master Li."

"Hello, everyone."

Li Jiayi had seen these people before. They had exchanged things with him before, but he couldn't remember their last names, so he could only greet them with a fist salute.

"Master Li, please take a seat."

"Okay, Mr. Wu." Li Jia nodded and sat down next to Mr. Wu.

After he sat down, Master Wu turned around and said, "Master Li, they are the ones who want to sell the house, so I called them over."

"Well! That's good. If you are sure you want to buy it, you can take a look at the house first and then decide on the price."

"Yes, I thought so too."

"Everyone, are you sure you want to sell the house?" Li Jiayi asked.

"Yes, Master Li, and the sooner the better." said one of the middle-aged men.

"Okay, in that case, let's go look at the house!" Li Jiayi is also a decisive person.

"Okay, but Master Li, we only want the yellow stuff."

Li Jia nodded and said, "Master Wu has already told me this, so there is no need to say it again."

Although the yellow croakers in his space will be valuable in the future, they are nothing compared to the house.

Not to mention this small amount of house, he would be very happy even if all the yellow croakers in his space were replaced with the house.

Of course, he also knew that this was just a dream, because it was simply impossible to achieve.

With the current housing prices, if all the yellow croakers in his space were replaced with houses, they could at least buy half of the capital.

How could there be so many houses for him to exchange? Although there should be many people leaving this time, it is nothing to the entire imperial capital.

"How about this, let's look at them one by one. Although Master Li has a car, it can't accommodate so many people at once." Master Wu said at this time.

"Yeah!" Several middle-aged men nodded.

"In that case, let's look at the ones that come in first." Uncle Wu said, looking at the middle-aged men.

"Then it's me." A middle-aged man stood up and said.

"Okay, let's go."

The three of them came out of Uncle Wu's house and got into Li Jiayi's jeep.

Because we are looking from near to far, the first one we look at must be the closest one. The jeep arrived at the destination before it had gone very far.

"Mr. Li, this is one of my houses. Let me take you inside to have a look." The middle-aged man said and got out of the car.

Li Jiayi and Wu Ye also hurriedly followed.

Soon the middle-aged man opened the door with the key, and the three of them walked in together.

It’s no wonder that this courtyard is very big, with three entrances.

The overall area is not as large as Courtyard No. 7 where Li Jiayi lives now, but this is an old courtyard house, unlike Courtyard No. 7 which is a replica.

This courtyard house has five main rooms, facing north and south. The main entrance is not in the middle, but on the east side of the back room.

Entering from the gate, there is a corridor, and then five back rooms.

This is the first entrance, with a patio in the middle and three side rooms on the east and west sides.

Next to the west wing is a hallway that connects to the central courtyard, which is the main house. The main house also has five rooms.

The central courtyard also has three side rooms on the east and west sides. The hall is still on the west side of the main house, and the backyard is through the hall.

In the past, the backyard was where the women lived.

There is no cross-courtyard here, but even so, this place is not small, and the area of ​​the three courtyards is more than one thousand square meters.

"Master Li, come inside and take a look."

"Ok!"

Li Jiayi knew that since he was allowed to look into the house, there must be good things inside.

Sure enough, when the middle-aged man opened the door, the furnishings in the room were dazzling, with all kinds of antiques and even the furniture was made of fine wood.

At the very least they are all rosewood, and there are even some huanghuali and golden nanmu.

"How much do you plan to sell this place for?" Li Jiayi asked after taking a look at the furnishings in the house.

"Master Li, this house, plus the things in it, what do you think of twenty large yellow croakers?"

Twenty large yellow croakers, according to the bank's exchange rate, are worth just over 15,000 yuan.

Of course, this is based on the bank's exchange rate. Now on the black market, twenty large yellow croakers can be exchanged for at least 28,000 yuan.

And this is just the domestic price. The reason they want large and small yellow croakers is that they plan to take them out.

When exported to foreign countries, the prices of these large and small yellow croakers will be higher.

If it was just the house, it would definitely not be worth twenty large yellow croakers, but if the antiques in the house were included, the price could be said to be quite cheap.

There is nothing we can do about it. In prosperous times, antiques are valuable, while in troubled times, gold is more important. Now gold is much more important than antiques.

Li Jiayi did not answer the middle-aged man, but glanced at Mr. Wu next to him.

Uncle Wu thought about it and nodded to Li Jiayi.

"Okay, that's the price."

Since Mr. Wu agrees to the price, there won't be any problem, and Mr. Wu has already seen the things in the house.

"Then let's go to the next place."

"it is good."

Soon the three of them came to a courtyard house, which had two courtyards.

Not only that, there are people living here, and it seems like there are quite a lot of them.

"Master Li, I rented this house to the street office, and now the street office has rented the house to someone else."

"Is that so? That's fine, but I don't know how much you want."

This is just a yard. As for antiques or furniture, they basically don't exist.

"I want five large yellow croakers for this two-entry courtyard."

Li Jiayi calculated that five large yellow croakers would only be worth about 6,000 to 7,000 yuan, even at the black market price.

It's not unacceptable, after all, the area here is not small! It is equivalent to two-thirds of the previous courtyard.

This time, Li Jiayi didn't even ask Master Wu, he just nodded and said, "Okay, five is five."

Half an hour later, the three returned to Mr. Wu's house. This middle-aged man had three yards in total.

One has three courtyards, two have two courtyards, and the third courtyard is empty, which means no one lives there.

He has two double courtyards, one is rented to the street office and one is for his family to live in. Now he is leaving and plans to sell all three courtyards.

There are many good things in the yard where his family lives now, so he finally bought ten large yellow croakers.

That is to say, he ordered a total of 35 large yellow croakers during these three visits. That's a lot! One large yellow croaker weighs 312.5 grams, and 35 of them, that's more than 10 kilograms!

Not to mention now, even in the future, more than ten kilograms of gold is a lot!
But for Li Jiayi, this is really nothing.

Even according to the black market price, thirty-five large yellow croakers would only cost about 50,000 yuan.

I spent 50,000 yuan to buy a three-courtyard courtyard house and two two-courtyard courtyard houses, as well as so many antiques and furniture. It was really a good deal.

Of course, this is only true for him. If someone else were asked to come up with so much money at once, I guess few people would be able to do it.

Fifty thousand yuan! Even if you are an eighth-level worker, you can't earn that much even if you don't eat or drink for your whole life.

After returning to Uncle Wu's house, the two signed a loan contract, with the house as collateral.

Li Jiayi paid the big yellow croaker and then got the house deed and land deed.

As for the courtyard house with two entrances and two columns where he lives now, it will be vacated in three days at most.

Someone said, aren’t you afraid that he will take away the antiques in the house when he leaves? There is no need to worry about that at all.

Unless he doesn't want to leave, he won't do anything.

If you leave with some gold or something, no one will probably care, but if you leave with antiques, try it.

It took Li Jiayi one day to buy all the thirteen houses. As for the yellow croakers that were used, there were less than 150 in total.

Among these thirteen houses, there are three with three courtyards, seven with two courtyards, and three with one courtyard.

There were also quite a few antiques. After dark, Li Jiayi first collected the antique furniture and other items from several uninhabited places.

After eating something in the space, Li Jiayi drove home.

Because he knew that even if he went back at this time, his family would have finished their meal.

Sure enough, when he got home, everyone in the family had already gone to bed, only Lin Ling'er was still reading in the bedroom.

Seeing him come in, Lin Linger quickly put down the book, ran over and asked, "You're back? Why are you back so late today?"

"Something delayed me, why haven't you slept yet?"

"I can't sleep until you come back."

"Don't wait for me next time. It's cold now, so just rest after dinner."

"Oh, got it."

Li Jiayi's harvest today was huge! Not only the thirteen courtyard houses, but also a road.

A road that buys a lot of houses.

Needless to say, in the future, anyone in Uncle Wu’s circle who wants to sell a house will definitely come to him.

Moreover, Li Jiayi has already made up his mind that he cannot take all the houses left. He will get one for each of his brothers first.

But he also knew the situation of his brothers, and he could forget about buying the big ones or those with antique furniture.

An ordinary two-entry courtyard house will do, and the price should not exceed six thousand yuan. Of course, it would be better if there is a cheaper one.

Lin Linger did not ask any further questions, and Li Jiayi did not say anything. It was not that he did not trust her, but the main thing was that the fewer people who knew about it, the better.

Li Jiayi took off his coat, Lin Linger took it and hung it up and said, "Have you noticed that today seems to be much colder than yesterday?"

"Have it?"

To be honest, Li Jiayi didn't notice this. His car had air conditioning, and he was in good health, so he didn't feel cold at all.

"Yes, I meant inside the house."

"In the room, the stove might be out!" Li Jiayi looked towards the stove.

"The stove is not off. I just checked."

"Okay! Since we feel cold, let's rest early."

"it is good."

Silent all night.

The next morning, Li Jiayi opened his eyes on time, and Lin Ling'er snuggled in his arms like a kitten.

Li Jiayi smiled and gently withdrew his arm.

I don’t know if Lin Ling’er had woken up a long time ago. As soon as Li Jiayi withdrew his arm, she opened her eyes.

"Are you awake?" Lin Ling'er asked.

"Hmm! Did I wake you up?"

"No, I woke up too."

"In that case, let's get up!"

"it is good."

When the two people came down from upstairs, the eldest sister had already gotten up.

"morning."

"Good morning, big sister."

"Sister, why are you staying in the house now that you're up?" Li Jiayi asked.

"Open the door and take a look."

"Uh! What's going on?" Although he said this, Li Jiayi still went over and opened the door.

When he lifted the curtain, he found that there was a thick layer of snow in the yard.

No wonder Lin Linger said it was cold last night! It turned out to be snowing!
"It's snowing so heavily that it will be troublesome to go to work today," said Li Jiayi.

"Yeah! Riding a bike to work is definitely not feasible." said the eldest sister.

"I'll go out and shovel the snow first." Li Jiayi said and walked out.

I came to the east wing, took out a shovel from the house, and started shoveling from the door.

At least we need to clear a path from the main room to the kitchen.

Maybe this is the disadvantage of living in a courtyard house. If you live in a building, you won’t have these troubles.

But it’s only when it snows or rains. At other times, it’s more comfortable to live in a courtyard house.

After a while, Dad also came out of the house, and by this time, Li Jiayi had already shoveled the snow from half of the yard.

"Sure, son. You're up so early today."

"I don't get up late every day!" Li Jiayi rolled his eyes at his father.

"Yes, yes, you got up early." After saying that, Dad also went over and got a shovel to help.

Soon, my mother came out of the house. Her parents were not with her, but she took my eldest sister and Lin Ling'er to the kitchen.

By the time mom and the others had finished cooking, Li Jiayi and dad had just finished shoveling the snow in the yard.

Of course it was impossible to put so much snow outside, so we just put it under the eaves of the house in front.

"Okay, go wash your hands and eat." Mom shouted.

"coming."

When Li Jiayi and his father returned to the house, it had already become warm. No one knew who had lit the fireplace.

If it hadn't snowed, it would be Li Jiayi's job to light the fireplace every morning. Today, he got up and went out to shovel snow, so he didn't light the fireplace.

The room is warmer now, so I don’t have to worry about taking some time to eat. Otherwise, the food would get cold before I can even eat it.

Li Jia had already washed up before coming downstairs, so he only needed to wash his hands.

"Jia Qi! You also need to work harder." Mom said to my eldest sister while eating.

"What are you working hard for?" the elder sister asked puzzledly.
