China Entertainment 1981: Starting from Journey to the West

Chapter 60 Visiting the Grave and Burning More Papers

Gu Bei originally wanted to take the initiative to hand over financial power, but in the end, Gu Xiaowu and Li Sufen didn't even mention it.

Even though Gu Bei had made it very obvious, even if he didn't invest money in this business, he still got a lot of dividends.

When I get back home and think about it carefully, I will understand.

Now in the eyes of Gu Xiaowu and Li Sufen, he has grown up.

Now that you have grown up, the treatment of children is naturally different from that of previous children, and you should also be financially independent.

This is also the reason why Li Sufen never asked Gu Bei to hand over his salary after he went to work.

After being reborn, I was really lucky to meet such a pair of enlightened parents.

As for Ma San'er's filial piety, the couple never mentioned sending him back again. Just accept his kindness!
The next day, Gu Bei got up early. He had to go to work tomorrow. He was thinking about the two-entry courtyard house. Everything else could be delayed, but this matter could not be delayed.

"Xiao Bei, what time is it?"

Ma Saner is a night owl. Ever since he bought a TV at home, he would not sleep until he saw the snow on all the channels every night. Even if there were no TV programs, he would still have to read two novels brought from the south. hour.

When I was in my twenties, I had never even touched a girl's hand, so I could still get addicted to reading the romance in the novel.

Ma San'er was still fuming as he pushed his bicycle out of the courtyard.

The two of them finished breakfast at a breakfast shop at the entrance of the alley, then rode to Haidian to look for Ma Gan'er, but they didn't get up either.

Ma San'er was so angry that he couldn't bear to face Gu Bei, so he took it all on Ma Gan'er.

"What time is it? I can't afford it."

Ma Gan'er, sleepy-eyed, sat blankly on the kang, and it took him a long time to react.

"Third brother, Bei brother, what are you..."

"The yard you told me about the day before yesterday, take us there now."

Uh?
courtyard?

Ma Gan'er's eyes were empty, and his brain started to work quickly.

"Oh, okay, okay, go right now, go right now."

Ma Gan'er didn't dare to delay Gu Bei's matter. He followed Gu Bei for more than a month and made all the money he had spent in the previous 20 years, rolling and doubling.

Not to mention that it was already dawn now, even if it was midnight, if Gu Bei wanted to go, he wouldn't hesitate.

After getting dressed, I grabbed the two leftover buns from yesterday's meal on the table and stuffed them indiscriminately.

The three of them rode towards Chaoyang again.

Along the way, Ma Gan'er also explained the situation of the courtyard to Gu Bei, which was similar to what Ma San'er introduced yesterday.

"Brother Bei, this is the price..."

"Money is not an issue, as long as it meets my requirements."

"Got it!"

Hearing this, Ma Gan'er felt relieved, and then told Gu Bei about the yard.

"I turned around and was shocked as soon as I entered the house. Brother Bei, guess what, the good furniture in Yitang is said to be kept by the buyer as long as the price is right."

Hearing Ma Gan'er talk about furniture, Gu Bei was also moved. Ever since he got money, he has been holding back the thought of getting some good stuff. But firstly, he is too busy with work and has no time. Secondly, now is no better than it was a few years ago. Really good stuff has been hidden away by others as treasures.

Not to mention antique calligraphy and paintings, even trying to buy some old furniture was difficult. Gu Bei had browsed almost all the commission shops in the East and West City, but he didn't see anything that could make him excited.

"You kid, don't brag. If it doesn't go to Xiaobei's liking, I'll take it from you."

Ma Gan'er smiled: "Third brother, when have you ever seen me do something outrageous? Brother Bei, I'm sure you like it."

Gu Bei didn't say anything, but...

Seeing is believing!
It took nearly two hours of pedaling from Haidian to Chaoyang. When we arrived at the destination, Gu Bei felt that his legs were getting thicker.

I have just been back for two days, and before I can take a break, I have worked so hard again.

"That's it."

After entering an alley, the three of them walked forward for more than ten meters and stopped at the entrance of a courtyard.

"There are large courtyards on both sides. This is the only single courtyard in the entire alley. No one has ever messed with it. Even the floor tiles are original."

The more he listened to Ma Ganer's introduction, the more Gu Bei looked forward to it.

Knocking on the door knocker three times, footsteps soon came from inside.

The door opened and a middle-aged man in his 40s came out.

"Comrade Zhang, do you still remember me? I was here last time."

Comrade Zhang nodded, and then looked at Gu Bei and Ma San'er with wariness in his eyes.

Judging from the reaction, you can tell that he has suffered a lot in special times. Now when he sees strangers instinctively putting up their guard, he is almost frightened.

"This is the buyer I told you about last time. I brought him to you. Let's go in and have a look?"

Only then did Comrade Zhang speak, and his tone was very calm: "Have you mentioned the price? If you can't accept it, there is no need to look at it."

"Don't worry, if you don't have that strength, you won't bring him here. You see..."

Comrade Zhang hesitated for a moment, turned sideways, and said, "Then please come in."

Finally, the other party let him go.

Gu Bei followed behind and walked into the courtyard. He was faced with a well-preserved screen wall. After turning the corner, there was a front room on the left. He walked forward and passed through the hanging flower door into the middle courtyard.

ho...

This courtyard is beautifully built. Generally, in a two-entry courtyard, the middle courtyard is filled with east and west wing rooms, but this family also built a hand-painted verandah outside the door of the west wing. Along this veranda, you can directly enter the main house.

The ground is also very flat. Just as Ma Gan'er said, it is all made of blue bricks from old age.Although the entire courtyard is not big, it has been well preserved. However, in the entire capital, there are probably not many sets of two-entry courtyards like this.

"Brother Bei! What do you think?"

Gu Bei suppressed his inner excitement: "Go inside and take a look."

Hearing this, Ma Gan'er looked at Comrade Zhang. The other party hesitated for a while, but finally nodded.

Bought it, must buy it.

After looking at the east and west wing rooms and the three main rooms, Gu Bei had already made up his mind. No matter how much money he spent, he had to take over this courtyard if he had to spend all his money.

The house is full of old red sandalwood furniture. These furniture alone will be worth more than this yard in a few decades.

Especially the Babu bed placed in the west room of the main house. Judging from the style and carving techniques, it is at least an old object from the Ming Dynasty.

It is so well-preserved with no trace of damage at all. There is no second one in China.

Gu Bei didn't want anything else. He just bought this bed and this yard.

Ten thousand and eleven thousand yuan.

Without saying anything, Gu Bei pointed out fifteen bundles of unity, which he picked up at Ma San'er's house in the morning.

From the clothing wholesale business during this period, excluding the dividends from Ma San'er and Ma Gan'er, Gu Bei could earn more than 8 yuan, not counting the cost and dividends from the TV set earlier.

If you calculate carefully, Gu Bei's current net worth is almost more than 30, and it is only in cash.

Comrade Zhang didn't expect Gu Bei to be so happy, and subconsciously felt that he was missing something.

But the words have already been spoken, and there is no way to change them.

Immediately afterwards, he went to the housing management bureau. It was the same person who handled the procedures for Gu Bei last time, and his work efficiency was still excellent.

Kaka!

The two prints were stamped, and the money was paid to receive the house book. From now on, the two-entry courtyard house and the old furniture in it were all owned by Gu Bei.

After completing the formalities, Comrade Zhang left directly. His things had been packed and he had found a place to live in advance, and then he was waiting for the visa.

Oh, Mericken!

I'm afraid this person's heart has already flown away.

I just hope that decades from now, he won't regret today's decision.

Of course, he is now in his 40s, not to mention 40 years ago. In 30 years, it is not certain whether Comrade Zhang will still be alive or not, but it saves the heartache.

With the matter settled and the real estate certificate in his arms, Gu Bei was in a good mood.

There is a courtyard with one entrance, and now there is a courtyard with two entrances. If there is a courtyard with three entrances, it is best to bring a cross-yard...

Gu Bei found that he was a little worried about Shu.

but……

"Look for a courtyard like this for me."

Adding property and buying a property should have been a celebration, but Gu Bei now had a small goal in his mind. If he didn't hide the property certificate, he wouldn't be able to feel at ease.

After saying goodbye, Gu Bei got on his bicycle and hurried home as if he had stolen a treasure.

"Third brother, do you think... this shabby yard is really that good?"

Ma Gan'er is a little confused now.

In the past, anyone who bought such an old courtyard house would be a fool in his eyes.

But is Gu Bei stupid?
If Gu Bei was stupid, he could make such a big deal, so both of them would have to be errand boys?

Hearing what Ma Gan'er said, Ma San'er's heart became excited.

"Tell me, should we also buy a courtyard and keep it there? I think Xiaobei is not without foundation in his work. He has already regarded it as a treasure. Maybe this courtyard will be worth a lot of money in the future."

"If you ask me, it's the same principle. No matter what happens, it's still an industry. You can definitely learn from Brother Bei."

"Then keep looking. If there are any good ones, leave them to Xiao Bei. Let's get a smaller set first."

"Just do it."

Neither of them knows how much benefit blindly following Gu Bei's trend will bring them in a few decades.

Let’s not talk about what happens next.

Gu Bei returned home and carefully put the real estate certificate into the small box. In addition to the two real estate certificates, there were also the stamps he bought before.

These are all babies!

Wait for appreciation.

The family wealth is getting stronger and stronger.

He may not have any use for it, but when his children and grandchildren think of his wisdom now, they will burn a few more pieces of paper even if they visit his grave.

Another day passed, and the future rich man still had to ride his bicycle to work.

"Still 2 minutes late."

As soon as he entered the office, Li Chengru had already arrived early and was working in poverty with Lao Zhang. Naturally, he was talking about his experience of more than a month.

Gu Bei listened for a while and couldn't help but wonder if he had gone too?
It was obvious that he was just going out to capture the scene, but what he said from Li Chengru's mouth had a completely different meaning. He was staying at the thousand-year-old temple on Mount Jiuhua, on the windy and snowy Huangshan Road, and Director Yang Jie nearly fell into the Huangshi Village.

The things were still those things, but they were actually given a mythical quality.

Li Chengru was talking in plain English when he saw Teacher Peng Li coming over.
