The old things I repaired have become fine

Chapter 2 It’s better not to inherit this shabby house!
An hour and a half later, Shen Le sat in the conference room of the office building in a daze, with two thick stacks of documents piled up on his left and right hands.

In the center of the document, there is a huge map with a huge plot of land outlined in red pen.

"What? My inheritance? Such a big...house? Mansion?"

"Yes, an old house." The lawyer smiled confidently and kindly:

"There are two roads, east and west, three entrances each, with a total area of 2000 square meters. Don't worry, it's not a cultural relic protection building, you can do whatever you want."

"hiss……"

Shen Le felt his head buzzing, and even the copper plate hanging on his chest began to feel slightly hot. 2000 square meters! A 2000 square meter house!

Nowadays, many people work very hard to go to the top 2 universities, work in big companies, and work 996, 007, just to have a roof over their heads. But he did nothing and he had a square meter house!
Even if the location is too remote, in a small county town, such a house can at least be sold for hundreds of millions, and financial freedom can be achieved instantly. At the very least, there is a place to live!
He tried to calm down, and then calm down again, thinking about the data again, and rubbed his temples:
"Wait...you are talking about my great-uncle...why have I never heard of this elder in my family...my grandfather never mentioned him, and there is no record of him in the family..."

"Mr. Shen Le, since we have come to you, we must have ensured the accuracy of the information." The lawyer pushed his silver-rimmed glasses, and the narrow edge of the glasses reflected a silver light, which made Shen Le squint his eyes slightly:
"In short, this ancestral house is the ancestral property of your great-uncle, Mr. Shen Yinmo. After the reform and opening up, the policy was implemented and it was returned to his father's name.

He was an only child, went abroad when he was young, and had no offspring. According to his wishes, the property rights of this street will be bequeathed to his closest bloodline descendants who still have their registered permanent residence in his hometown—that is, you.”

Well, no matter what, getting a house for free is always good. Shen Le calmed down, pressed the copper sheet that was still heating up through his clothes, and began to sign the document. While signing, he listened to the lawyer's statement:

"According to Mr. Shen's will, the ownership of this old house cannot be transferred again within 20 years. If you inherit this inheritance, you can only develop it yourself."

"I understand." Shen Le's mind was completely focused on the signature. He answered lightly without even raising his head.

If you can’t sell it, you can’t sell it. It’s not easy to rent out a house!

There are two roads, east and west, and three courtyards in each road, that is, six courtyards in total. He lives in one room himself - even if he lives in one courtyard, he can rent out five courtyards.

Even if the location is too bad, if the rent of a yard is 1,000 yuan, he can still earn 5,000 yuan a month. From then on, he was a person who collected rent without doing anything.
He signed quickly, pulled a suitcase of documents, and was escorted out by the lawyer. As he walked out the door, a fat, middle-aged man with thin eyebrows and eyes flashed out from the reception room of the law firm:

"What? Did he accept it?"

"I've received it." After sending Shen Le away, the lawyer also relaxed his serious attitude and slumped down leisurely:
"Old Hu, please don't give me this kind of trouble in the future. It takes me only a few days to invent a great-great-grandfather out of thin air, prepare a full set of documents, and then coax him into accepting the inheritance. It's not easy for me!"

"Hey, my grandson owes him a favor for saving his life, so I have to pay him back no matter what." Old Hu smiled helplessly:

"It's a good thing that I can pay it back with money. It's better than selling myself to him decades later and spending decades or even hundreds of years to pay it back. Besides, I've already paid the lawyer's fees..."

"The lawyer's fees are not enough! That guy had something on him, and I almost couldn't coax him. He also ruined my thing--"

The lawyer took off his glasses and threw them at Lao Hu. The bright narrow rims of the silver-rimmed glasses had become dim without knowing when, as if they had been oxidized for decades:
"You have to compensate me!"

"Alright, pay, pay!... Hiss, what burned this thing like this..."

Mr. Lawyer, let alone the flirtation with the owner behind the "inheritance". Shen Le flew from the Imperial Capital to the Magic Capital according to the address on the document. After completing the property transfer procedures, he drove 60 kilometers west from the Magic Capital to Zhuxi Town.

Arriving in the town, I walked from the central commercial street to the edge of the town, and then walked around a stretch of crooked private houses. I walked further and further away, and finally, I stood at the end of the old street called "Nanhua Street" on the map, and my face was distorted.

He knew Zhuxi Town, it was his hometown, his grandfather had taken him back when he was a child. But why didn't he remember that there was such a street in the town?

And this street is too old!

There are blue tiles and white walls, a gurgling stream, and a small bridge across the stream, connecting the streets on both sides of the stream. It looks very beautiful, but all the houses in the small streets on both sides of the river and the short alleys on the small streets are made of wood.
There were barely a few households, all in bungalows, with small doors and wooden window frames and iron railings covered with thick rust. Shen Le walked past and even saw two small coal stoves emitting curls of white smoke.

There were only a few shops open on the street, except for the mutton noodle shop at the end of the old street. Almost all of them had their doors closed, and the windows were covered with one-foot-wide and two-meter-long door panels, which were tightly covered;

On the roofs of those uninhabited houses, weeds of varying heights swayed in the wind, and there were even a few small trees standing tall.

The corners, the steps, and even the lower half of the door panels are all covered with moss... Standing at the end of this old street, it feels like traveling through time and stepping back a hundred years ago.

As for popularity... popularity...

This old street is three or four hundred meters long, and of all the houses on both sides of the river, less than one-third are occupied, from the beginning to the end and vice versa.

Oh, yes, at the end of the old street, there is a suspected Buddhist temple and a suspected Taoist temple or City God Temple. Even this one is empty.

Shen Le wanted to cry but had no tears.

With such low popularity, I want to rent out my house to someone, but can I do it?

People don’t think this is a haunted house!!!
If I can't rent it out, I'll have to do daily maintenance and repairs on this big house with two doors and three entrances, and it will be a huge money-eating beast!

"Forget it, at least I have a place to live..."

Shen Le was dejected. He rummaged through his bag and took out a document and a bunch of keys. Following the address on the document, he walked along the old street, looking for houses one by one:

“南华街15号……16号……17号……18……18……18号！哇哦！”

Shen Leqing couldn't help but whistle. No. 18 Nanhua Street, the old house he got, stood out from the crowd on the old street:
It is not hidden in a short alley, but directly occupies a section of Nanhua Street. There are three stone steps in front of the main wall. At the end of the stone steps, there is a pair of red lacquered doors and the brick-carved gatehouse is intricate and exquisite:

"Pomegranate magpie..."

"Lotus Begonia..."

"Auspicious clouds and cranes..."

Shen Le took two steps back, two steps forward, two steps back again, and two steps forward again, his eyes almost touching the relief of the gatehouse. There were three different brick carvings on the gatehouse alone, the arch wall, the upper beam, and the lower beam. In the middle, the four characters "佳夷悠昌" were written in strong strokes, obviously written by an expert.

On both sides of the signboard, two square brick carvings, each one foot square, face each other. On the left side, three heroes are fighting Lü Bu, and the pheasant feathers on Lü Bu's head seem to be fluttering in the air; on the right side, there are four fierce warriors and eight hammers, four kinds of hammers made of gold, silver, copper and iron, and the patterns on the hammer heads are so detailed that they are different.

"Just this gatehouse makes it look like a wealthy family..."

Shen Le muttered as he took out the key to open the door. After crossing the high threshold, the first entrance facing the street was the sedan chair hall, a three-bay gatehouse, seven-bay beams, and stained glass windows with ice cracks, plum blossom patterns, swastika patterns, and ruyi patterns, each of which was unique;
The second entrance is the main hall. Although the carved beams are dim and the painted paintings are covered with dust, you can still see the lifelike kirin on the stone pillars, and the inverted lotus petals carved on the capitals are distinct. The twelve doors of the main hall are carved with the flowers of the twelve months, each one is different.

The third entrance is the residence. Stepping over the moss on the water-milled square bricks and looking up slightly, you can see a two-story building with three rooms standing quietly. It has green tiles and white walls. Twelve French windows downstairs are quietly closed. Upstairs, a beauty is stretching leisurely. Through the years, you can seem to see the beauty leaning against the building and looking out.

Shen Le walked through the dense green shade cast by a vine in front of the building and opened the door to go in. As soon as he entered the door, he saw the twelve-panel floor-standing screen behind the two armchairs in the middle, and Shen Le took a deep breath:
"Wow... this thing is really valuable... it looks like it's made of rosewood... I don't know which dynasty it's from, but judging by the style, it looks like it's from the Ming Dynasty? My great-uncle, or his ancestors, must have been really rich..."

According to the instructions for the transfer of the estate, this house, all the furniture, furnishings, and even the flowers, plants, and trees in it all belonged to him. The house could not be sold, but it did not say that the things inside could not be sold. If this screen was really made of Ming Dynasty rosewood, as long as it was sold, he would instantly become financially free!
On the table in front of the screen, the copper incense burner was half filled with incense ash. If you approached it, you could smell the smoke. On the left and right of the incense burner, the candlesticks were still red, and on the left and right of the candlesticks, there was a pair of Yuhuchun celadon vases, with smooth lines and graceful postures, as if jade light was flowing on them.

"I would believe this incense burner if it was said to be a Xuande incense burner... but it's a pity that it's full of incense ash, so it's hard to lift it up to see the signature..."

Shen Le muttered to himself as he turned left from the main hall. In the bedroom, a huanghuali bed with carvings of the Three Friends of Winter stood quietly, with curtains hanging low and a faint fragrance wafting in the air.

Beside the bed and the wall, there is a sandalwood chaise longue with double pillows and a magpie-climbing-plum pattern, a black lacquer chest of drawers inlaid with mother-of-pearl patterns of birds, sparrows and peonies, and a rosewood table with a ganoderma lucidum pattern...

Every piece of furniture you see is an old item.

But Shen Le didn't think about selling them to make a fortune. He touched them left and right, shook the slightly shaky flower pot rack, opened the door and went out, touched the slightly moldy column base, his eyes shining:
"If I can repair all these things and charge the copper sheet, I will be rich!!!"
