Chapter 794
The snow in the yard is as thick as it is outside, but because of the wall, it is less cold and warmer.
Cao Zhen will close the door, "I go to the main room, see if there is power supply." The house has been unoccupied for several years, and I don't know if the power is off.
Jing SA informs the village cadres and looks around the dilapidated courtyard. "It's a pity that this house is in s city. It's a first-class mansion!"
In old Beijing, a house like Siheyuan can be sold at a price of 100 million.
"Luxury house, gloomy, just like a haunted house." Xiao Chen complained.
The lush Cinnamomum camphora tree in the yard is blocked by the sun because no one prunes it all the year round. It's very sunny outside, but it's a bit strange inside.
"Coward! But no one has lived in it for years! "
Cao Zhen poked his head out of the main room and said, "come here. There's electricity in the room."
So they all went into the main room.
The most important room in the courtyard is the main room, which faces south. In the old society, the ancestral tablet was usually set in the middle of the main room, so the main room is the most important room in the whole house.
The main room of the Du family is quite deep and high. There are three rooms in it. The building is elegant, the structure is ingenious, and it's warm in winter and cool in summer. It's a pity that no one has lived in it for a long time. The corner is covered with cobwebs, and the furniture left is a layer of dust at a touch. After a little blowing, the dust will float away and make people's throat itch.
There is a copper stove in the middle of the main hall of the main house. There is a big kettle on the top. There are some coal lumps in the stove below. Look at the color, except that there is more dust, the coal lumps are not deteriorated. Cao Zhen lights the fire, lights the hearth, and burns a pot of water. When the steaming steam comes out, the house warms up.
He looked at the furnishings in the house. Although they were dusty, it was not difficult to see that these furniture were excellent. Huanghua pear, red sandalwood and mahogany were old objects of some years. The carving of a Duobao Pavilion in the corner was complicated and polished very smoothly. They were not the things that can be bought in today's furniture city. The drum table, drum stool and incense table in the house were all old objects, Heduobao Pavilion is a complete set, the overall style tends to Ming and Qing Dynasties, refined and elegant style, even those who do not know the business know that it must be valuable.
She didn't know what the Du family was like when they were alive, but looking at these things, she knew that they were very luxurious, just like a landlord in the old society.
This has a way out with what I knew at the beginning. I thought it was just a little rich, but now it seems that it is not the same level at all.
Therefore, doubts also follow. Can people who make a living by opening bookstores save such a fortune?
How many books do you need to buy to buy a Duobao Pavilion carved with red sandalwood.
Is it something left by our ancestors? However, according to the information found by the police, the Du family is a general bookseller. Although the last three generations are scholarly, they are very poor and have no property at all. The Du family and his wife started from scratch.
She looked at jingsa, "where is Du's bookstore?"
"It seems to be in a small town not far from the village. I don't know the details. If you wait for the village cadres to come and ask, they should know more about it."
He nodded his head.
When Xiao Chen saw that the water was boiling, he took out a thermos cup and made a cup of tea for him. The tea was the best Longjing tea. After brewing, the fragrance of the tea overflowed.
Jing SA and Cao Zhen smell the taste, then they want a little too.
After waiting for about ten minutes, an old man in a green army coat hobbled in.
