Siheyuan Great Craftsmen

Hearing his wife's words, Zhou Tian naturally knew what she was worried about. He smiled, stepped forward, hugged Shen Yulin's shoulders and said, "Don't worry about this. I'll show you something good in a while!"

"what?"

Seeing her husband speak so mysteriously, Shen Yulin's curiosity was immediately piqued.

"It's not the right time yet, we'll talk about it later!"

Zhou Tian did not answer, but scratched Shen Yulin's nose with his hand.

"Virtue!"

Not getting the answer she wanted, Shen Yulin couldn't help but roll her eyes at him and said coquettishly.

In the afternoon, after waking up, Zhou Tian left home and drove towards Qianmen Street.

Qianmen Street has always been an important pilot area for the country's public-private partnership, with numerous shops. Especially with the rapid development of the country's economy in recent years, Qianmen Street has become extremely prosperous.

It can be said that in the entire old city, Qianmen Street and Wangfujing can be regarded as the two pearls of the city's commercial streets.

“It should be here!”

Zhou Tian was driving, looking at the deed in his hand along the way. According to the address on the deed, he came to a courtyard house of considerable size. He got out of the car and looked at the courtyard house in front of him. Even though he was mentally prepared, he was still shocked by it.

The main thing is that this courtyard house looks even bigger than the one in Nanluoguxiang.

After looking around and seeing that there was basically no one around, Zhou Tian jumped onto the top of the wall and went directly into the courtyard. After a tour, he finally got a clear understanding of the courtyard.

Rather than being a five-courtyard courtyard, this courtyard is more like an abandoned courtyard. The area inside is not small, with the land area alone being no less than five acres.

It seemed that this courtyard had been attacked by artillery fire, causing all the houses inside to collapse, leaving only a few scattered houses, which were also leaky.

However, from the rockery and pond in the yard, one can imagine the original scenery of this courtyard.

After walking around the courtyard, although Zhou Tian was a little disappointed with it, he could understand that if the courtyard was really intact, it would probably not be his turn.

Now all he can do is see if he can use the land deed in his hand to take over this courtyard house. As for the money for rebuilding the courtyard house, it is not a big deal for him at all.

However, before leaving, he still wanted to see if there were any secret rooms or treasure rooms in this courtyard.

As he thought about it, his spiritual sense instantly scanned from the front yard to the back yard.

"this?"

When his spiritual sense swept over the second courtyard, it suddenly stopped. At the corner of the second courtyard corridor and the east wing, a basement of about 50 square meters suddenly appeared in his spiritual sense.

There were three boxes inside, and each box was filled with books. This made him speechless for a moment as he was used to catching large and small yellow croakers.

However, he still used his spiritual sense to put the three boxes of books into the space.

Then he continued to walk towards the third courtyard. After he had scanned the entire fifth courtyard, he couldn't help but reveal a hint of joy in his eyes.

"At least it wasn't a wasted trip!"

There are five underground secret rooms in the entire courtyard with five entrances. There are two in the main house of the third courtyard, one in each of the east and west courtyards, and even one in the backyard.

Except for the secret room in the front yard and the secret room in the west wing which are all filled with books, the other four secret rooms are filled with large and small yellow croakers and antique calligraphy and paintings. It can even be said that the wealth he has gained in this courtyard today alone is enough for him to achieve financial freedom.

You can imagine how much wealth is contained therein, especially in the secret room in the backyard, where there are not only some yellow croakers and silver dollars, but also a lot of guns and ammunition. It is obvious that the secret room in the backyard should have been a stronghold for the enemy spies to hide their funds and weapons.

It’s a pity that he was killed by Zhou Tian before he could use it. Now everything belongs to Zhou Tian.

Having received some unexpected fortune, Zhou Tian did not stay in the courtyard. He jumped out, got in the car, and headed towards the subdistrict office on Qianmen Street.

When he arrived at the street office, Zhou Tian first met with the director of the street office and took out the title deed. Of course, he also explained the origin of the title deed to the director of the street office. After all, although he was already a high-ranking ministerial-level official, he did not want to leave any hidden dangers for himself.

He also inquired about the situation of the five-courtyard courtyard. From the director of the street office, he learned that this courtyard with five courtyards was the residence of a first-rank official of the previous dynasty. However, it changed hands several times and was occupied by a military commander during the Republic of China.

"President Zhou, this is actually very easy to handle. Even without the title deed, this courtyard house will be taken back by the state. And with your rank, you are qualified to be allocated such a courtyard house. Now that you have taken out the title deed, this matter will naturally be no problem. But do you really want this courtyard house, President Zhou?"

As the director of the subdistrict office spoke, a strange look flashed across his eyes.

After all, although this courtyard is large, it has been destroyed quite thoroughly. Otherwise, it would not have survived until now.

There are actually quite a few courtyard houses like this in the city, but he still wants to confirm it.

"I confirm, Director Liu, if that's the case, then please help me handle it first!"

Zhou Tian nodded. He knew that he had the right to be allocated a five-courtyard courtyard, but the problem was that even if it was allocated, it would not be his. Why should he add burden to the country?

Although this courtyard house had been destroyed, it had a title deed, so it was privately owned. It would just cost him a little more money, which he had no shortage of.

"Okay then, since you've confirmed it, Dean Zhou, I'll send someone to handle it for you right away!"

Although the country does not allow private buying and selling of houses now, on the one hand, Zhou Tian's rank is not low, and secondly, this is a private property, and it is in line with national policy to speak out about it. Director Liu will naturally not make trouble for no reason.

Soon, Director Liu called a clerk and handed the matter to him, and he started chatting with Zhou Tian in the office.

From national policies to economic development and public security management, the more Director Liu talked, the more he was impressed by Zhou Tian. He never expected that Zhou Tian, ​​the director of a research institute, would have such profound attainments not only in research, but also in management and economics. At the very least, he benefited a lot from this short chat of more than an hour.

Half an hour later, after the clerk handed Zhou Tian the completed property certificate, Director Liu ended the conversation with a sense of unfulfilled desire and reluctantly saw Zhou Tian off!
