Gu Jin wanted to buy, which actually wasn’t difficult.
Wanqi Heyang took out his phone and started making calls, asking people from the company if there were any courtyard houses for sale in the peripheral areas of the Chen Palace.
This inquiry revealed that there were indeed several available.
Wanqi Heyang hung up the phone and walked over to Gu Jin, saying, "There are currently three nice courtyard houses on the market in that area: one over 200 square ters, another under 400 square ters, and one over 600 square ters."
Gu Jin thought for a mont and said, "Let’s look at all of them."
"Alright!"
The group imdiately set off for the locations of the courtyard houses for sale.
...
The courtyard house, also known as a four-sided house, is built with simple materials, primarily wooden structures.
Beijing’s courtyard houses are traditional Chinese four-sided courtyard buildings. The layout consists of houses built on four sides around a courtyard, typically with a main house, east and west wing rooms, and opposing rooms.
Thus, the courtyard is enclosed from the east, west, south, and north, hence the na courtyard house.
The first place Wanqi Heyang took Gu Jin to see was the 200 square ter courtyard house.
At first glance, Gu Jin gently shook her head. Who knows what happened here; it was in an unrecognizable state, with more than half of the wooden structures in the corridors destroyed.
Even though this courtyard house was cheap, Gu Jin still shook her head.
Next up was the second one, over 600 square ters.
The scenery inside was nice, with a few jujube trees, and the architecture had minimal damage.
Finally, they looked at the one under 400 square ters.
With just one glance, Gu Jin was taken with it.
Firstly, the location was the most crowded with people out of the three courtyard houses, closest to the surrounding market.
Secondly, the decoration was exquisite, with a rich traditional charm, exuding an academic atmosphere everywhere.
The previous owner must have been a highly educated person; otherwise, it wouldn’t feel so elegant here.
This courtyard house wasn’t cheap, either. After all, it’s located in the Beijing City Center, and the surrounding residents were all wealthy. It was priced at 850,000.
In this era, 850,000 is quite a lot of money!
Gu Jin didn’t even blink, directly deciding to buy this courtyard house.
Wanqi Heyang wanted to gift it to her, but Gu Jin firmly refused.
She still preferred to spend her own money to buy things. Having already accepted a duplex from the Wanqi family, she felt it would be inappropriate to accept a courtyard house as well.
Although these things couldn’t compare to what she had given the Wanqi family, which were things money couldn’t buy, what Gu Jin valued wasn’t these material things.
After deciding to purchase the courtyard house, staff quickly helped Gu Jin sign the agreent and transfer money at the bank.
This was essentially exchanging the property certificate for money.
Within a day, Gu Jin acquired two properties, both of which were not cheap.
All procedures completed, as the group left, Gu Jin ca back to her senses, gazing at the culture-filled, locked main door and the intricately carved wooden structures—ancient yet thriving.
East Gate South Street, number 88.
It’s a very auspicious number.
Gu Jin could even estimate the future value of this courtyard house—it would definitely be worth at least a billion.
If calculated based on future housing prices, the market value of this courtyard house would be at least four billion.
The four of them left, returning to where they had parked, seeing Wanqi Jingyi standing outside the car talking to soone.
Earlier, while handling the procedures, he received a call, greeted the caller, and left.
Now, standing in front of him was a middle-aged man, dressed ticulously and formally, clearly a smart and wise type of person.
