100 logging depth

Cao An stepped forward and knocked on the door.

After a while, someone came to open the door.

She was a well-dressed middle-aged woman, wearing fine cotton and a silver hairpin in her hair.

When meeting Cao An, the woman had a good attitude.

It can be seen that the woman's face did not look good when she saw Qin Xiaoyao behind Cao An.

His eyes glanced at Qin Xiaoyao's patched clothes several times, and his disgust was very obvious.

Qin Xiaoyao is not very particular about what she wears, and since she goes to the city to deliver goods and does rough work, she doesn't need to change into new clothes.

But I didn't expect to meet someone who cared about this.

But she didn't mind too much.

She is here to buy a yard, not to be looked at by others.

As long as she can come up with the money to buy a yard, isn't it?

"Auntie, these are my third sister and brother-in-law, who are here to look at the yard." Cao An, however, pretended not to see the woman's reaction and introduced him to her.

Only then did the woman notice Song Que with his head exposed behind Qin Xiaoyao.

He was startled for a moment, and then he moved away.

"Come in." Then he said.

"Hey, okay!" Cao An agreed with a smile and led Qin Xiaoyao and Song Que through the door.

"In our courtyard, there are five bedrooms, plus the main room, kitchen, utility room, woodshed and thatch, there are a total of ten rooms."

"This yard is also spacious. You can build a shed or even open a piece of land to grow vegetables. That's all possible." The woman pointed to a large area that was vacant not far away.

"If we weren't in a hurry to move to the county, we wouldn't be willing to sell it!" As she said that, the woman glanced at Qin Xiaoyao.

Seeing that Qin Xiaoyao ignored him and was looking at the house, he looked at Song Que again.

When he saw Song Que's face, he was stunned.

It’s really a flower stuck in cow dung…

Song Que frowned and asked the woman to look away.

Then he asked: "Is there a well in the yard?"

"Yes, there it is!" the woman said quickly.

Everyone followed what the woman pointed and saw that there was indeed a well not far from the wall.

Because the yard is large, it is not easy to find unless you look carefully.

Qin Xiaoyao saw Song Que's actions, stepped forward to help him, and then walked towards the well.

The woman and Cao An looked at each other and followed.

"Does your well have a lot of water?" Song Que asked as he walked.

"That's a lot! Even during the severe drought five years ago, my well never lacked water. At that time, many people from the neighborhood came to my house to borrow water!" the woman said quickly.

Song Que ignored it.

After arriving at the well, I poked my head to see the condition of the well.

"How deep is this well?" he asked immediately.

"How deep?" The woman was stunned.

After thinking for a while, he said: "When we were digging the well, my boss specifically asked me to dig deeper. Therefore, after I discovered the spring, I dug deeper. The total depth is estimated to be four to five feet."

After saying that, the woman looked at Song Que in confusion. She didn't understand why the young man asked her this.

But seeing how good-looking he was, she didn't mind talking to him more.

Song Que glanced around the yard and saw a clothes-drying pole in the yard. The length was roughly four to five feet.

"Can I borrow your pole to measure it?" So Song Que said.

The coming drought will be more serious than the drought five years ago.

By then, most wells in the city will be short of water, and only wells more than four feet deep will be less likely to dry up.

He was actually satisfied with the size and location of the yard.

If the well is more than four feet deep and the price is right, they can buy it.

When the woman heard this, her face darkened.

I felt that the two people in front of me were joking with me and making fun of me.

Just when she was about to refuse rudely, Cao An walked up to her and pulled her aside.

I don't know what Cao An whispered to the woman. Although the woman was still sullen, she was relieved.

"If you want to try it, just do it yourself. But you have to clean up the pole later and put it back for me."

"Sure!" Qin Xiaoyao quickly agreed.

Then without waiting for Song Que's instructions, he ran over and fetched the clothes drying pole.

Then, listen to Song Que's command and use a pole to measure the depth of the well.

Finally, Qin Xiaoyao submerged all the poles under the water, stretched his arms downwards, and finally reached the bottom of the well.

"It's over." Qin Xiaoyao raised his head and looked at Song Que.

Song Que nodded.

"Get up."

Qin Xiaoyao then stood up.

Then take out the pole, tidy it up, and return it to its original position.

When the woman saw Qin Xiaoyao's actions, she didn't say anything.

"Is there a cellar?" Then Song Que asked again.

The woman frowned and looked at Cao An.

Cao An quickly spoke.

"I don't have a cellar. But the yard is big, so it's no problem to open a cellar."

With that said, he pointed out a piece of land to Song Que.

"It's totally fine to clean up the open space over there and open a cellar."

Qin Xiaoyao came over at this time.

"I think so! It's not hard to dig a cellar anyway. Let my father and the others come over to help when the time comes, and it can be done in half a day!" he said.

She is quite satisfied with the yard, mainly because the yard is big and the room looks not too small.

Song Que glanced at Qin Xiaoyao and then nodded.

"Let's go take a look at the house." He continued.

Cao An breathed a sigh of relief and then let the woman continue to lead the way.

The woman's face was already very impatient, but she thought that she had already wasted half a day's work, and she didn't want to give up halfway.

I can only continue to show the house with three people.

As a result, the condition of the house was better than the couple expected.

The bedrooms are fully furnished, and there are even desks and bookshelves in two rooms.

The main room has good lighting and is wide enough to accommodate two large tables.

The kitchen is also quite wide and has many more types of cooking utensils than the Song family.

Qin Xiaoyao was very satisfied with even the utility room, woodshed and thatch next to it.

The room is big and can hold a lot of things.

In addition, the latrine in this house was partitioned to separate a separate area for bathing. This made her like it even more.

"Can we keep the furniture, cooking utensils and the like at home?" Qin Xiaoyao couldn't suppress the joy in his heart and asked the woman.

The woman glanced at Qin Xiaoyao angrily.

"You can keep them all, and add an extra ten taels." He said.

Qin Xiaoyao's expression became colder, he looked at Song Que and asked Song Que for his opinion.

Seeing Song Que nodding towards him, he looked at the woman again.

"Two hundred and thirty taels of silver, plus all the things in the yard," he said.

The woman was startled.

Unexpectedly, Qin Xiaoyao actually wanted to buy it.

My attitude is much better now.

"No! Our selling price before was two hundred and forty taels. Now we are giving away furniture, how could it be reduced by ten taels?"

Qin Xiaoyao smiled.

"It's not convenient for you to go to the county town with so many things."

"Besides, these are all used things, so it's not cost-effective to carry them around, isn't it?"
