I followed Lu Fanling to the kitchen and found that there was a semi-automatic coffee machine placed in the kitchen.

It’s great that the kitchen is big!

"Professor Lu, do you still make your own coffee?" Ning Xin asked curiously.

"Yes, when you have free time, you can use your hands and change your mind. It can be regarded as a combination of work and rest!" Lu Fanling said while taking out the coffee beans.

Lu Fanling skillfully operated the grinder, and the kitchen was soon filled with the unique aroma of coffee.

Yan Yujie sniffed and praised: "When I was in Japan, I heard people say that good coffee is something you smell, not drink. This sentence is indeed true."

"Guys, what color do you want to make?" Lu Fanling asked.

"Professor Lu, can you make it into a mocha? If it's too troublesome, just ordinary cappuccino or American style will do." Yan Yujie said expertly.

"No problem." Lu Fanling smiled and took out milk and a bottle of chocolate sauce from the refrigerator.

"What about you?" Lu Fanling asked Ning Xin.

"I want caramel macchiato!" Ning Xin seemed to want to embarrass Lu Fanngling.

Wei Shijie rolled his eyes at her, while Ning Xin pouted.

Lu Fanling magically took out a bottle of caramel sauce from the refrigerator and said, "No problem."

"Xiao Chu, Xiao Wei, what flavor do you drink?" Lu Fanling asked.

Chu Tianshu said: "Well, I'll just take a iron."

"Okay, I'll take a latte too!" Lu Fanling replied while operating.

Ning Xin asked while watching Lu Fanling frothing milk: "Professor, what is the difference between cappuccino and latte? I feel the same every time I drink it."

"In fact, they are essentially the same. The ratio of milk to milk foam in a latte is about 2 to 1, while the ratio of coffee, milk to milk foam in a cappuccino is about 1 to 1 to 1. So simply put

It’s just that the cappuccino has more milk foam.” Lu Fanling explained patiently.

In a short while, Lu Fanling prepared five cups of fragrant coffee in exquisite coffee cups.

Ning Xin looked at the coffee in her hand and said, "I will never drink instant coffee again."

After hearing this, Chu Tianshu laughed and agreed, but it was not that he didn't like drinking instant coffee, but that he was not used to drinking coffee at all. However, he still secretly admired Lu Fanling in his heart for not only being good at learning but also doing well.

, knows how to trade stocks, and knows how to relax and enjoy life.

Lu Fanling looked at Ning Xin and said with a smile: "Actually, instant coffee has nothing but bad taste. It's just a drink. The main problem is that it contains non-dairy creamer, commonly known as creamer, and also called trans fatty acids, which are said to induce blood vessels.

Hardening increases the risk of heart disease and cerebrovascular accidents. It also makes people gain weight easily, especially around the waist."

Ning Xin stuck out her tongue and remembered that when she was in school, there was a period of time when she was eating two packs a day. After hearing what Lu Fanling said, she felt that her waist was much thicker than before.

"But it's okay to drink it a few times now and then, as long as you don't consume large amounts frequently." Lu Fanling asked again: "Are you going to drink it sitting in the living room, or drinking it outside in the garden?"

"Then you must go to the garden to see it!" Yan Yujie, out of professional habit, wanted to visit more of this house to serve as a reference for future products.

In fact, Yan Yujie has seen many real estate projects, including villas. What he actually cares about is not the house itself, but how a real home buyer will use it after he actually lives in it, that is, how to live in it.

.

The outdoor garden of Lu Fanling's house is connected to the basement.

This is a common design. If the basement floor is entirely buried underground, its use will definitely be very depressing.

The basement is connected to the outdoor garden, which will eliminate this depressing feeling.

Of course, this requires building a certain slope in the building. The outdoor ground on the first floor is higher than the outdoor ground on the basement level.

Several people carrying coffee cups went down the stairs to the basement. This floor is estimated to be 100 square meters.

In fact, this floor has the same structure as the one above, except that it is not divided into the living room, kitchen and other rooms on the first floor. The necessary columns are still there.

The basement is also connected to the garage.

Chu Tianshu glanced at it. The garage was not big. It could only park the size of a car. There was a white Tesla Model S pure electric car parked inside. Lu Fanling actually installed a charging pile in the garage!

What’s even more interesting is that Lu Fanling actually turned the basement into a practice room!

This place is decorated according to a standard practice room, with wooden floors on the ground, mirrors on the surrounding walls, and stainless steel handrails.

"Professor Lu, what kind of exercises are you practicing at home?" Ning Xin asked.

"Haha, I'm not practicing, and I don't dance. But I think the future hostess of this house will use it, so I'll just prepare it first to avoid the trouble of renovating it in the future." Lu Fanling replied.

The future hostess? Could it be that Lu Fanling is still single?

Lu Fanling did not continue, so Ning Xin could not ask these more private questions.

In a corner of the basement, there is also a pool table.

Wei Shijie looked at the pool table and said with a smile: "Professor is so elegant!"

"No, I was actually a little interested in it when I was decorating it, but I rarely used it after that. As you just saw, in fact, as long as I don't have class every day, I basically sit in front of the computer in the study room." Lu Fanling said.

He looked at Wei Shijie and asked, "Are you playing this?"

Wei Shijie said: "You can play for a while."

"We can come and compare notes when we have the opportunity in the future." Lu Fanling glanced at his watch and said, "We don't have time today."

"Okay!" Wei Shijie noticed that there was a golf bag standing in the corner.

"Professor Lu must be a master, right?" Wei Shijie said, pointing to the golf bag.

"Oh, um, I just know how to fight, I'm definitely not a master." Lu Fanling replied.

There was a folding table tennis table standing against one wall. Everyone thought to themselves, Professor Lu really has a wide range of hobbies and the equipment at home is really complete.

Walk through the basement to the outdoor garden.

The garden is estimated to be nearly 200 square meters.

This configuration is considered to be above average.

Generally, if such a small detached house is built to a higher quality, it will need to occupy half an acre or more of land.

One acre of land is about 667 square meters, and half an acre is more than 300 square meters.

Excluding the 100 square meters occupied by the foundation of the house, the garden is about 200 square meters.

Of course, in order to increase development density, many projects will cut down half of the garden area, so that one acre of land can be used to build one more house. In some suburban areas where land is very cheap, each household can even be allocated a larger garden area.

Therefore, the size of the garden mainly depends on the cost of the land and the price at which the house can be sold.
