The richest man Yang Fei

Yang Fei went out and came to an old house in an alley.

There are also courtyards in Shanghai, but Shikumen is more distinctive.

The old alleys in Shanghai are generally Shikumen buildings, which originated during the Taiping Rebellion, when the wars forced wealthy businessmen, landlords, and officials and gentry from Jiangsu and Zhejiang to flock to the concession to seek refuge.

Foreign real estate developers took the opportunity to build a large number of houses.

In the 30s and [-]s, enclosure was still the main feature of Shanghai residences, but instead of emphasizing sculptures, they pursued simplicity, and multi-entrances were replaced by single-entrances. Shikumen residences combining Chinese and Western styles emerged as the times require.

This kind of building has absorbed a large number of residential styles in the Jiangnan area. It uses stone as the door frame and solid thick wood with black lacquer as the door leaf, hence the name "Shikumen".

In Chinese, the enclosing circle is called "hoop", such as "golden hoop stick", "hoop bucket" and "sleeve hoop".

This kind of building with stone strips surrounding the door frame is called "Stone Hoop Gate".

The people of Jiangsu and Zhejiang pronounced the word "Hoop" as "Ku". Since then, Shanghai's "Shiguoumen" has been misrepresented as "Shikumen".

The plane and space of Shikumen buildings are closer to the traditional two-story courtyards or courtyards in the south of the Yangtze River. It maintains a proper and regular living room, a quiet inner room upstairs, and a common hatchback.

This kind of building also basically maintains the characteristics of traditional Chinese houses that are relatively closed to the outside world. Although it lives in a busy city, it can be self-contained after closing the door.

Therefore, this "door" becomes more and more important.

It always has a stone frame around the door, and the door leaf is solid plank wood painted black, with a pair of brass rings on it.

Yang Fei got out of the car in front of the door, stepped forward and knocked on the copper ring.

Mouse and others are listed on the left and right.

After a while, the heavy wooden door creaked open.

A tall, thin and handsome young man said politely, "Excuse me, brother Yang Fei?"

"I'm Yang Fei."

"My father is inside, please come in."

"Thank you. Are you Li Zhan?"

"Yes, brother Yang Fei, your friend?" Li Zhan looked at the mice and the others.

"Don't worry about them, just let them stay outside."

"Okay, please come inside."

"Yang Fei is here? You sit in the yard for a while, I'm kneading noodles, and I'll make dumplings later. Li Zhan, make a cup of tea." Li Zhengyang's voice came from the kitchen.

"You don't need to be so troublesome." Yang Fei smiled, "Brother Li, why did you cook yourself?"

"At home, if I don't cook by myself, who will cook?" Li Zhengyang poked his head out and said with a smile, "Sit down and treat yourself as your own home, don't be restrained."

Yang Fei looked at the house and said, "This house is well built. Is it old?"

"This is the old house of Li Zhan's grandmother's family. My father-in-law's family used to be a wealthy family. Later, they donated all their property to the country's development and construction, leaving only this old house."

Yang Fei thought to himself, if you look carefully, behind every successful person, there is a not-so-simple family background.

A person like myself, with no background, who started from scratch, was really lucky to be able to achieve what he is today.

Li Zhan made tea and brought it over, asking Yang Fei to drink tea.

Yang Fei asked him, "Have you graduated from university?"

Li Zhan replied: "Yes, I graduated last year and have started working. I'm in this city."

After kneading his face, Li Zhengyang came out wiping his hands, and said with a smile, "I asked Li Zhan to come over and let him learn from you."

Yang Fei said: "Brother Li, are you talking the wrong way? I should learn from you."

Li Zhengyang said: "I'm serious. Among the young people I know, Yang Fei is one of them!"

With that said, he gave a thumbs up.

At this time, the door opened and two women walked in.

"Brother, why is there a car parked outside... Hey, isn't this Yang Fei?" A woman about 30 years old giggled and said, "No wonder I heard magpies calling when I got up early in the morning. It turns out that some nobles came."

Yang Fei chuckled and stood up.

Li Zhengyang's wife was also there, carrying a few bags of things, walking towards the kitchen, smiling and saying, "Yang Fei, sit down and leave us alone. Li Han, come here, we're going to make dumplings."

Li Han glanced at Yang Fei, rolled up his sleeves, and entered the kitchen with his sister-in-law.

Yang Fei met Li Han once. Seven years ago, she and Li Zhengyang went to the Southern Provincial People's Hospital to thank Yang Fei, but Yang Fei at that time did not know that she and Li Zhengyang were brother and sister.

Yang Fei seven years ago would never have imagined that he would be the guest of the Li family today.

And he didn't come here to eat dumplings!

He came here with a request!

Chapter 1386 Never Compromise!

Li Zhengyang handed Yang Fei a cigarette.

Yang Fei took it with a smile.

Li Zhengyang took out a cigarette, hesitated for a moment, and handed it to his son Li Zhan.

Li Zhan grinned, stretched out his hands and took it respectfully: "Thank you, Dad."

Li Zhengyang smoked one himself, and said: "Smoking is said to be harmful to health, but if a man socializes outside, if he doesn't even smoke or drink, he will not fit in."

Li Zhan said with a smile: "It doesn't matter whether you fit in or not. The problem is, for example, the three of us are in a box, and the two of you smoke. Even if I don't smoke alone, the second-hand smoke is enough. .”

"Spoof!" Li Zhengyang said, "Look at Yang Fei, who is not more than two years older than you, but is as calm and stable as our generation."

Yang Fei said: "Brother Li, you are saying that I look old."

Li Zhan said: "Brother Yang Fei is indeed more sensible than me, mature and prudent."

Li Zhengyang glared at his son: "Brother? Didn't you hear Yang Fei calling my brother? You have to call him uncle!"

"" Li Zhan's psychological shadow area expanded infinitely.

Yang Fei laughed and said, "We have our own opinions. Jiang Ziqiang and I are the same way. I call him brother, but his daughter calls me brother."
