Rebirth He Yuzhu I am a family man

After the housing reform in Beijing, houses became commodities. Some families alleviated their housing problems by changing or buying houses. As a result, the original concept that it is difficult to leave one's hometown is quietly changing.

When the neighbors of the courtyard learned that the He family was buying houses from their neighbors at prices higher than the market price, they secretly did the math in their minds: if they used the money from selling their house to buy a house nearby, they could increase the size of the house significantly; if they bought a commercial house within the Second Ring Road provided by the He family, the area could be almost doubled.

At that time, every family had many children, and they all had housing problems. Some elderly people in the neighborhood around the courtyard were reluctant to leave the place where they had lived all their lives, and were forced to move to the He family by their children who were about to get married.

A few days later, He Daqing handed the list of sellers to He Yuzhu. In line with the principle of benefiting neighbors, He Yuzhu asked the company's personnel to give neighbors as much leeway as possible when measuring the area and to give them as much as possible when calculating the total price.

Many of the houses in the large compound next to the Siheyuan are only a dozen or twenty square meters, or even thirty square meters. The neighbors know each other very well, and when measuring the house, they will measure a few more square meters and give a high price.

Now things got worse. A few elderly people who had originally been unwilling to sell their houses found out that their neighbors had gotten a great deal. How could they no longer be willing to suffer a loss? They immediately went to He Daqing for help, asking him to find a way to buy back their houses.

Some neighbors with many children sold their houses near the courtyard house and wanted to buy new houses with larger areas, so they directly bought the newly opened commercial houses of the He family.

Those who bought the commercial houses of the He family spread the relevant news. Some smart people did the math and found out that the amount was incredible. The extra area given when selling the house, the preferential price when buying the commercial house of the He family, plus the few extra square meters given when buying the house, was equivalent to having an extra house of more than ten square meters for no reason.

Led by those smart people, most of the neighbors who had sold their houses came to He Daqing again, starting a trend of buying He’s newly developed properties.

After acquiring the slum adjacent to the courtyard house and helping everyone buy new houses, He Daqing's vanity was greatly satisfied. He was praised by the neighbors to the point of being overwhelmed, and his smile was grinning from ear to ear every day.

After the slums in front, behind, left and right were vacated, He Daqing, He Yuzhu and Lou Xiao'e discussed and decided to tear down and rebuild the courtyards in their original appearance. They planned that the courtyard on the east side would be given to He Xiao's family; the one on the south would be given to the second oldest He Yang, the one on the north would be given to the third oldest He Xu, and the one on the west would be given to the youngest He Yu.

Since He Yang, He Xu and He Yu were still in Hong Kong Island, they only did basic decoration on their courtyard house after it was renovated. As for the courtyard house prepared for He Xiao's family to live in, the original appearance was not changed much, and the internal layout was decorated completely according to the requirements of He Xiao and Li Qi.

He Daqing was relieved to see that each of his four eldest grandsons had a courtyard house. He proudly wandered around the renovation sites of those courtyard houses every day. If he was in a good mood, he would ask Li Cuilan to make some snacks and send them to the chefs to taste.

Time passed quickly, and in a blink of an eye, a row of houses in the courtyard next to the Siheyuan was renovated into an antique teahouse. Similarly, the teahouse's business premises were limited to the outer courtyard and front courtyard of the Siheyuan; the outer courtyard was mainly used to receive individual guests, and the front courtyard was renovated into private rooms of different sizes; each room was connected by a corridor.

After the teahouse was renovated, He Daqing took Li Cuilan to carefully purchase tables, chairs, benches, tea bowls, teapots, pots, pans, etc.

He Yuzhu watched He Daqing and Li Cuilan busying around in the teahouse that was about to open every day, and he couldn't help but feel worried. It was not that he was afraid of losing money, but he was worried that He Daqing and Li Cuilan were so old and would be exhausted.

In order to reduce the workload of He Daqing and Li Cuilan, the staff in the teahouse became a concern for He Yuzhu: If they were strangers, they would listen to them, so how could they dare to bother the boss's father! If they were acquaintances, he was afraid that the teahouse would become a public place.

He Yuzhu thought about it for a few days and came up with the idea of ​​He Yushui and Yu Li. He Yushui would be the manager of the teahouse, and Yu Li would be responsible for the tea and snacks in the kitchen.

With He Yushui in the teahouse, even when He Daqing was going crazy, there was someone to persuade him; with Yu Li around, Li Cuilan wouldn't feel tired, and if she didn't want to go to the teahouse and suffer, she could just rest at home.

Moreover, without He Yushui and Yu Li at the "He's Stew House" next to the courtyard, Li Qi can manage it without interference, which will help the overall standardized operation of "He's Stew House".

At the same time, it also avoids the situation where, because of familiarity, customers from the teahouse would go to the nearby "He's Stew House" to order food and then run away without paying.

After dinner that day, He Yuzhu asked someone to call He Yushui. Before He Yushui's people entered the main room of the middle courtyard, they heard her complaining in the middle courtyard: "Brother, why are you calling me? The store is busy at this time!"

He Yuzhu smiled and joked, "Yushui, you like the cashier job so much now. Well, go back! Forget it, I didn't look for you, the manager of the teahouse, I'll find someone else."

He Yushui works at the "He's Stew House" next to the courtyard every day. Seeing the teahouse on the west side of the courtyard being renovated day by day, she had asked He Daqing and Li Cuilan a long time ago. As a result, the old couple said that it was opened for them and they would have the final say in the future, which made He Yushui jealous.

As He Yuzhu finished speaking, He Yushui rushed over, shook He Yuzhu's arm and asked, "Brother, are you saying that you want me to be the manager of the teahouse? Is this true or false? You are not trying to make me happy, are you?"

He Yuzhu pulled his arm out of He Yushui's hand and said in a negotiating tone: "You have been in He's Stew House for more than a day or two. Many things have remained essentially the same despite changes."

"He Daqing and Aunt Li are the owners of the teahouse. Aren't they planning to make you the manager?"

"When the teahouse opens, I plan to let Yu Li go with you and let her be in charge of the kitchen."

"Your salary and benefits will be the same as before at He's Stew House. We'll make adjustments when the teahouse becomes profitable!"

When He Yushui heard that he would be a manager but his salary would not increase, he immediately became unhappy and bargained with a dissatisfied look on his face: "Brother, what kind of manager is it if the salary does not increase? Then I won't go. I'll stay in He's Stew Restaurant!"

Seeing that He Yushui was unwilling to do it, He Yuzhu was not in a hurry and said casually: "Okay, it's up to you! But I tell you, the teahouse will be equipped with a Dasang sedan. He Daqing and Li Cuilan are definitely not able to drive at their age, so it will probably be sold to others."

He Yushui had been jealous since she saw Lou Xiaoe riding in a car. When she heard He Yuzhu talking about the car, she was immediately overjoyed and asked, "Brother, are you serious? I must be the manager of the teahouse..."
