The Wizard's Journey Begins in a Courtyard House

Chapter 82: Plans to Renovate the House

According to Li Qin's idea, he needed a dining room and a living room;

However, if the house is not big enough, the two halls can only be combined.

Although Li Qin, who was used to the modern environment, felt a little awkward, he realized that this was the norm in this era and that it was not insurmountable.

In addition, two more bedrooms are needed.

One is for his own residence, and the other, whether as a guest room or for the children to use in the future, is also essential.

Finally, a study is also needed;

Besides being used by Li Qin for reading, the main purpose of the study was for Li Qin to slowly absorb the inherited wizarding knowledge.

After Li Qin shared his thoughts, Master Sun first showed a thoughtful expression.

After a while, Master Sun finally spoke;

"Master, I can meet all your requirements, but this will make the rooms a bit cramped. If you can accept that, then I have no problem with it."

Upon hearing this, Li Qin immediately shook his head;

"Can we improve the utilization of space? I hope that the rooms won't be too cramped."

Upon hearing this, a conflicted expression flashed across Master Sun's face.

The room is right here, and its size is fixed. He has no way to create more space to meet Li Qin's requirements.

That would be a bit difficult for him.

Li Qin understood Master Sun's thoughts and felt somewhat helpless.

He even considered that if there was really no other way, he would have to give up the study or combine the living room and dining room into one.

"Why!"

Li Qin couldn't help but look up and sigh.

He knew that his expectations were already very high.

It should be noted that the room on the other side of the deaf old lady's house is about the same size as his room, but one of the rooms is occupied by a family of three.

I didn't hear the other party say anything.

He now occupies two rooms by himself, yet he feels the space is insufficient; he is indeed being too greedy.

Just as he was about to lower his standards, a glint of light flashed in his eyes.

"Master Sun, you're a professional. I'd like to ask if it's possible to build an attic above these two rooms."

Just now, when Li Qin looked up, he inadvertently noticed that the ceiling height of both rooms was quite high, at least four or five meters.

If a portion of these two rooms were partitioned off and turned into a duplex-like space, it wouldn't be impossible.

Master Sun is a very experienced master craftsman; he understood what Li Qin meant as soon as he heard what Li Qin said.

Instead of giving an answer immediately, Mr. Sun took out a measuring tape from his tool bag and began measuring the height of the two rooms.

5.23 meters!

Upon seeing this data, a strange light flashed in Master Sun's eyes, and he then began to measure the height of other parts of the room.

After all the data had been measured, a smile immediately appeared on Master Sun's face;

"Boss, your idea is entirely feasible."

In fact, the courtyard houses in Beijing are generally taller than regular houses.

The courtyard house where Li Qin lived was previously used by a prince to keep his mistress, so it was naturally incomparable to an ordinary courtyard house.

The ceiling height of this courtyard house is even higher.

Of course, this excludes rooms with a reverse-facing orientation.

If we're talking about the tallest houses in a courtyard house, it has to be He Yuzhu's house and the house of the deaf old lady in the backyard.

Their houses are all main houses, and they are taller than the surrounding houses.

Upon hearing Master Sun's affirmative answer, Li Qin's face immediately lit up with a smile.

Although the partitioned attic is certainly not as large as the ground floor, it is more than enough to serve as a bedroom.

Even if you build a full set of cabinets in the bedroom, there's still plenty of room to fit everything.

"In this way, there will be more space in the room, so we can partition off another bedroom on the first floor and connect it to the study."

After resolving the issue of housing space, Li Qin immediately had a new idea.

This time, Master Sun didn't say he couldn't do it; instead, he smiled and nodded.

Next, Li Qin began to discuss the renovation plan for the two rooms with Master Sun.

Of course, it was mainly Li Qin who put forward his needs, while Master Sun considered whether it was possible to fulfill them.

If it can be done, then we should start thinking about how to achieve it.

Time flew by, and the two had been in the room for over an hour.

"Boss, the house renovation plan has been basically finalized. If you have any other requirements when construction starts, you can discuss them with me."

Master Sun put away a piece of paper in his hand.

At this moment, there is a floor plan of Li Qin's two rooms drawn on the map, with a lot of data marked on various parts of the map, as well as some renovation plans.

It looks densely packed.

This is exactly the result of the discussion between Li Qin and Master Sun.

"Thank you for your help, Master Sun."

Li Qin said with a smile.

"This is my job, it's not troublesome at all," Master Sun said nonchalantly.

"I wonder if you're planning to book the whole thing or just half?"

Li Qin knew that the so-called "all-inclusive package" meant that he didn't have to worry about anything and could leave everything to Master Sun.

He doesn't need to worry about anything, from procurement to the detailed construction; he just needs to provide the money.

As for the semi-package, you purchase the necessary materials yourself, and Mr. Sun's people are responsible for the specific construction.

Li Qin replied without hesitation;

"Of course, it's all-inclusive. I'm a complete novice when it comes to renovations; I don't know anything about it. Mr. Sun, you're a professional, so it's natural to leave professional matters to professionals."

In fact, Li Qin was being modest.

Although he wasn't a professional in home renovation, he wasn't completely ignorant about it either; in fact, he knew quite a bit.

Li Qin simply didn't care about money, nor did he want to waste time on such trivial matters.

As long as the house that Mr. Sun finishes building meets his expectations, that will be enough.

Upon hearing that Li Qin had chosen to cover all expenses, Master Sun's face immediately lit up with joy.

Because it's more advantageous for him.

Of course, this doesn't mean that Mr. Sun intends to profit from the price difference in construction materials.

Instead, Li Qin gave him complete control, allowing Master Sun to work according to his own habits, and he could also take care of some acquaintances when purchasing materials.

This is a genuine favor.

"Boss, I just did a rough estimate, and if we renovate the house according to your ideas, it will cost a lot of money. I need to make that clear in advance."

Master Sun's smile suddenly vanished, and he spoke with a serious expression.

Upon hearing that it was about money, Li Qin immediately said indifferently;

"Don't worry, Mr. Sun, money is not a problem."

Anyway, Li Qin had already told Director Wang that he was renovating the house so that he could find a partner and get married in the future.

As for the expenses, they were all paid for by Uncle Li Huaide.

So even if he spends some money to renovate the house, he doesn't need to worry about being suspected.

As for the possibility that Director Wang would confirm this matter with Li Huaide, that is completely impossible.

The two are from different systems, and unless something major happens, they will generally not have any direct interaction.

Master Sun had no doubts about what Li Qin said.

Because when Li Qin was talking to Zhou Xing earlier, he already knew that the house was not allocated to Li Qin by his work unit, but was bought out by Li Qin.

If you can afford to buy a house, decorating it won't be a problem either.
