Chapter 244 Looking up at the sky at 244.45 degrees
Yue Jiuyue thanked the closed gate, and then walked to the back of the village to find the family with the white sail.

found it.

Whether it is the family with the white sail or the family to the west, their doors are also closed.

Yue Jiuyue went to the house to the west and knocked on the door.

"Who is it?"

It was the voice of a youth.

There was a few "bang, bang, bang" fiddles inside, and the door opened with a "squeak".

"Who is that? What's the matter?"

The young man frowned and asked bluntly.

"I'll take a look at the carpentry work of Yee's family. If it's suitable, I'll order two doors."

Yue Jiuyue thought that the other party would ask a few more questions, but unexpectedly he stepped aside and pointed inside.

Yue Jiuyue nodded to him, said "excuse me", and went in.

This side is close to the county town, and the houses are almost all brick and tile houses. In this carpenter's house, flat stone slabs are laid from the gate to the main room. One can tell at a glance that this is a fastidious family. In the yard, except for the wooden boards, they are semi-finished products. Put it neatly.

Under the eaves of the hall, there is an elderly man in his mid-century who is smoking a pipe and pot, and looking up at the sky at 45 degrees.

Yue Jiuyue thought the old man was expressing his sadness, but then he heard the old man say:
"Oh! It's still sunny!"

Oh, so the old man was watching the weather.

Also, there is no weather forecast in this era, but many elderly people can predict the weather in the future by looking at the sky, such as "the morning glow does not go out, the evening glow travels thousands of miles", "the sun halos at three o'clock, the moon halos at noon, the wind is windy", "Tung tree The leaves droop, and it rains for two or three days"...

There are many such proverbs about predicting the weather, all of which were recorded by the ancient working people through careful observation.

In fact, there are many old people in their village who can check the weather, but Yue Jiuyue lives far away, so he hasn't seen it yet.

"Master, this aunt wants to order two doors."

The young man didn't reveal Yue Jiuyue's purpose until the old man spoke up.

Yue Jiuyue: (っ╥╯﹏╰╥c)
What a goddamn aunt!Destroy them all!
"How tall and wide? Are there any requirements?"

The old man continued to smoke his pipe, but he didn't have any enthusiasm for Yue Jiuyue, the "God" who took the initiative to come to the door.

"Master, the walls of my house are three meters high, and there is a three-meter gap for the gate, and the door frame is not finished yet. How high and wide do you think the door is suitable?"

Professional problems, of course, should be handed over to professionals to solve, she is only responsible for paying the money.

"Well, the door frames on both sides have to be left out, so the gate has to be [-] meters wide, and can be slightly higher than the wall, about [-] meters.

Now, there happen to be two gates over there, 20 meters high and [-] meters wide, huh?If you want, give me [-] taels of silver and take it away! "

The old man took the time to say a few words, then continued to smoke his pipe and pot, and continued to look up at the sky at 45 degrees.

The corner of Yue Jiuyue's mouth twitched a few times, feeling unbelievable.

20 taels of silver for two gates?Is it so expensive?
She looked at the old man's grandson who opened the door for her with question marks all over her head.

"Ye come with me first and have a look."

After he finished speaking, he turned around and left, and Yue Jiuyue followed immediately.

In the West Wing, Yue Jiuyue just stood at the door, and when she raised her eyes, she saw two vermilion doors, with a pair of copper door knockers on top, and the base of the door knockers was just an ordinary round shape, and there were no special carvings on the wooden doors, but Yue September took a fancy to it.
