As soon as Du Fei returned to the courtyard, he saw several unemployed aunts and uncles gathering together, pointing in the direction of the backyard, obviously discussing about building a house.

Seeing Du Fei coming back, the three aunts, led by them, immediately came over and said, "Xiao Du, go home and take a look! If you call those barbarians, they will almost tear your house apart!"

Du Fei knew what he was doing, so he smiled and ignored it.

But when he came to the backyard and took a look, the scene shocked him.

In the backyard, there were furniture dumped from Du Fei's house, and Du Fei's two houses were already in a mess.

All the doors and windows on the front were cut out, the partition wall and the fire pit between the two rooms were knocked down, and the newspaper-paste ceiling was torn open, revealing the original beam and column structure of the house...

The five people headed by Lei Laoliu were still busy.

People of this era are hard-working, and with Du Fei's promise of ten days' work and fifteen days' pay, these people worked even harder.

Du Fei nodded secretly, parked his bicycle, and shouted to several people: "Old Lei, tell everyone to take a rest and have a bite to eat while it's hot and exciting."

Lei Laoliu, who was also covered in dust and holding a sledgehammer in his hand, stuck his head out of the room and shouted back.

After a while, five people came out one after another, dusted themselves off, washed their hands and faces with a basin of water, and took the lunch box Du Fei brought.

Several people were hungry after working all morning. When they opened their lunch boxes, they saw that they were full.

Most of the lunch box was made up of rice mixed with sorghum rice and millet, and the vegetable was stewed cabbage, carrots and vermicelli.

Aunt Qian knew that these people worked for Du Fei's family, so she packed the food in a special way, fearing that they would not have enough to eat, and let Du Fei sit on the wax.

Lei Laoliu and several workers were very satisfied with the food, secretly saying that the master's family is very particular about things.

Although according to the rules, if they go out to work for a day, the employer's house must provide them with a lunch.

But a meal is just a meal, and it doesn’t matter what you eat. Some people just dug out some cornmeal flour pancakes, mixed with porridge and a few pickles, and dismissed them.

While they were eating, Du Fei called Lei Laoliu aside and asked about the situation.

Lei Laoliu reported to Du Fei leisurely while eating.

"Don't worry, Leader Du, the demolition work will definitely be completed today. I have already contacted people, and the wood and water pipes will be brought in this afternoon. Tomorrow we will focus on the water supply and sewerage projects."

Installing tap water is relatively simple, but sewerage is a bit more troublesome.

Du Fei asked to be able to use the toilet in the house. The sewer holes in the original courtyard were certainly not large enough.

Therefore, the sewer of Du Fei's house must be connected to the main pipe in the back street separately, otherwise it will be a real trouble if it gets blocked in the future.

Du Fei also understood that he must not save money on water and electricity pipelines, otherwise he would dig a hole for himself.

After several people finished eating, Du Fei took back his lunch box and didn't want to stare at this place, but planned to go find Chu Cheng at noon.

Lei Laoliu said before that some scarce supplies were difficult to obtain. Of course Du Fei himself didn't have any connections, but Chu Cheng definitely did.

Du Fei said hello and was about to go out while pushing the car.

As soon as he reached the Moon Gate, Lei Laoliu suddenly thought of something, stopped him, and followed him.

Du Fei was surprised, what's the matter?

Lei Laoliu quickly glanced around and saw no one nearby, so he whispered: "Leader Du, there are some things that I wonder if you are interested in?

"What is it?" Du Fei looked at him as he looked mysterious and didn't know what he was up to.

"Gold bricks, do you want them? They're the ones used in the palace in the past." Lei Laoliu raised his eyebrows and said, "I have a relative who has some."

Du Fei frowned and looked at Lei Laoliu who looked expectant, wondering what trick this guy was trying to play.

Speaking of gold bricks, of course they cannot be made of real gold, but a large floor tile that is very hard and can make a metallic sound when struck. The origin is as far away as Suzhou, and it is transported to the capital along the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal.

However, this kind of gold bricks was no longer fired in the late Qing Dynasty, and even the imperial kiln factory in Suzhou that produced gold bricks closed down.

Now that Lei Laoliu suddenly said that he could get gold bricks, Du Fei's first reaction was that this guy was trying to fool him.

But then I thought about it, Lei Laoliu could drag his family with him, but the monk could not escape from the temple.

Section Chief Qian also told him clearly that he had a background in the Public Security Bureau.

Is this Lei Laoliu really willing to die for a little profit?

After thinking about it, Du Fei felt that the chance of Lei Laoliu deceiving him was low, and thought to himself: "Could he really get the gold bricks?"

Thinking of this, Du Fei suddenly had an idea.

The white light and blue light in the portable space are all extracted from ancient artifacts.

As the old saying goes, gold in troubled times is worth antiques in prosperous times.

The country is far from prosperous now, and those antiques are naturally priced at a bargain price.

But no matter how low the price is, you still have to spend money to buy it. Although Du Fei has money, he is afraid of being targeted and cannot go on a big purchase.

When Lei Laoliu mentioned gold bricks just now, Du Fei had no idea at first.

Before he traveled through time, the large ceramic tiles used in ordinary home decoration were more exquisite and luxurious than gold bricks.

Moreover, even if Du Fei's two rooms were paved with gold bricks, they would not turn into a golden palace.

So he refused without even thinking about it.

But when the words came to his lips, he swallowed them back, and his mind suddenly reacted.

These gold bricks are by no means newly fired, they must have been passed down from the past and have been around for some years.

If these gold bricks are put into the portable space, can they absorb the blue and white light?

Du Fei asked calmly: "Which dynasty is it from? How much is it?"

When Lei Laoliu heard that there was a way out, he was secretly happy.

If the deal goes through, he can also earn another commission. He quickly said: "The intact ones are less than one hundred yuan. Counting the ones with some flaws, the total is one hundred and fifty yuan. They were left over from Daoguangnian of Jiaqing." ."

Du Fei's eyes narrowed. It has been one hundred and fifty or sixty years since the Jiadao period. The gold bricks from that time are definitely serious cultural relics and antiques.

Du Fei asked again: "Where does the other party come from, and what's the price?"

Lei Laoliu said: "Actually, this man is a relative of my mother-in-law. Because the third eldest son, we call him Na San. His ancestors once served as officials in the Guangzhou Department of the Ministry of Internal Affairs..."

Du Fei made a rough guess upon hearing this. In the final analysis, it was just a matter of deceiving the superiors and concealing the truth from the inferiors, and enriching one's own pockets.

But he didn't believe it just because Lei Laoliu said it.

It's just that the origin of this, Sanhe, and this batch of gold bricks is not important to Du Fei at all.

What he really cares about is the age of these gold bricks and whether they can provide the required portable space.

Balabala talked a lot, and finally Lei Laoliu mentioned the price: "Boss Du, when it comes to the price, these gold bricks are really not cheap. I also saw that you are serious about repairing the house and are willing to spend money, so I thought of this. …”

Hearing all the nonsense, Du Fei frowned and said unhappily: "How much does it cost to have a good time?"
