Chapter 210 Unexpected Gains
The next morning, before dawn, while many residents were still asleep, Li Qin got up and went to the pool in the middle courtyard to wash up.
Then he rode his bicycle away from the courtyard house.
Of course, some residents had already gotten up by then and saw him go out.
Because I already explained it last night.
These people saw it today but didn't ask any more questions.
Let's just assume that Li Qin went to the countryside.
Li Qin rode his bicycle all the way out of Beijing.
It was already broad daylight by then.
Li Qin found an opportunity, put away his bicycle, and immediately entered the suitcase space.
Today he plans to build all the brewing equipment and then use the grains produced in the space to brew baijiu (Chinese liquor).
These liquors can be used for personal consumption or for making medicinal wine.
Now, in the third level of the pagoda, not only have the number of poultry and livestock increased many times over, but the number of wild animals roaming in the mountains and forests has also greatly increased.
Among them are quite a few animals such as tigers and wild deer.
Tigers, in particular, must have their numbers controlled.
Otherwise, it will affect the food chain cycle within the space.
Fortunately, the tigers that were out of control could be put to use.
Li Qin entered the suitcase space, ate breakfast, and then spent the entire morning working in the alchemy workshop.
Finally, the brewing equipment was successfully built.
Li Qin immediately placed it into the first level of the pagoda and then set it to use a portion of the stored grain to brew various wines.
After taking care of all that, Li Qin enjoyed a delicious lunch in the space.
Feeling that he had rested enough, he then left the space.
Since it was said to be a trip to the countryside, even if it was just for show, Li Qin still needed to visit the villages.
Because Li Qin would occasionally go to the countryside and visit the surrounding villages, he had become a familiar face in the nearby villages after doing so once or twice.
Li Qin had promised the people in these villages that he would never maliciously drive down prices when making purchases.
On the contrary, they will try to offer higher prices.
Li Qin also kept his word.
Whether it's buying vegetables and fruits, or dried goods and wild game, Li Qin always offers very good prices.
Therefore, the people in these villages were quite welcoming to Li Qin.
As for the things Li Qin purchased, he naturally did not hand them over to the steel rolling mill, but kept them all for his own consumption.
Everything submitted to the steel rolling mill was produced by the Pagoda Space.
"Purchasing agent Li, you've arrived!"
Li Qin used Apparition to appear directly near Liangjia Village, and then rode his bicycle straight to Liangjia Village.
As soon as I arrived at the village entrance, I saw two young men guarding the entrance.
When the two men saw Li Qin, they immediately smiled sincerely.
Although Li Qin didn't know the names of the two young men, they looked very familiar.
He knew he must have seen these two people when he came to Liangjia Village to buy things before.
"Yes, the factory has a lot of work to do this month, so I came to the village early to check on things."
Li Qin returned their smiles, casually pulled out two Daqianmen cigarettes, and handed them over.
The two young men quickly took it.
However, they did not rush to light it, but carefully put it away.
Li Qin did not say anything about this.
After simply greeting the two men, he rode his bicycle directly into the village.
The two young men watched Li Qin's retreating figure with envy in their eyes.
Although workers and peasants now have a higher status, the people in the village still envy city dwellers.
"Xiao Li, why did you go to the countryside to buy supplies at the beginning of the month?"
Li Qin rode his bicycle straight to the village head's house in Liangjia Village.
When the village chief saw Li Qin, he first smiled, then looked puzzled and confused.
Li Qin first greeted the village chief, Grandpa Liang.
Then, he casually revealed a helpless expression.
He then explained to Grandpa Liang that the task of purchasing was now heavier, so they had to start going to the countryside to purchase goods earlier.
Hearing Li Qin's explanation, Grandpa Liang looked helpless.
He would like to help Li Qin if he could, but there's not much left in their village.
And the rest of these are for me to eat myself.
There was no way to hand everything over to Li Qin.
"Uncle Liang, you don't need to make things difficult for me. I know a little about the situation in the village. I'm just here for a casual stroll."
"It would be best if we could collect something, but it's okay if we can't."
Noticing Mr. Liang's unusual behavior, Li Qin immediately comforted him.
It wasn't really a consolation; he genuinely didn't care whether he managed to buy anything.
Hearing Li Qin say this, Grandpa Liang's expression finally relaxed.
Most people during this period were still quite simple and honest.
When Li Qin purchased goods in Liangjia Village before, he offered very good prices, and Grandpa Liang knew about this.
They all remember Li Qin's kindness.
If possible, they would be willing to help Li Qin.
However, this is on the premise that the interests of the people of Liangjia Village are not harmed.
After staying in Liangjia Village for a while, Li Qin rode his bicycle to the next village again.
He plans to visit several nearby villages today.
Time flies, and the sun in the sky has already begun to set in the west.
Li Qin rode his bicycle out of a village.
And there were some extra things in his car:
They contained two large roosters, a bag of dried wood ear mushrooms, a bag of dried mushrooms, and a bag of vermicelli.
This was all the result of his afternoon's work.
He originally planned to just wander around and didn't expect to buy anything.
However, he did not expect that when he mentioned the procurement task in some villages, these villagers would be so generous.
By piecing things together from various sources, he actually managed to purchase all of these items.
Although Li Qin didn't care about these things, he was deeply moved by the villagers' kindness.
He didn't let these villagers suffer any losses; he purchased everything, from roosters to dried goods, at high prices.
Facing the setting sun, Li Qin originally planned to use Apparition to return to Beijing.
However, many villagers returning home from working in the fields kept appearing, which put Li Qin in a difficult position.
The key point is that among these people, there were even those who knew him.
If he were to use Apparition under these circumstances, it would definitely cause a riot.
With no other option, Li Qin could only choose to ride a distance away from the village and wait until it got darker.
He was looking for an opportunity to use the spell.
In any case, it's impossible for Li Qin to cycle all the way back to Beijing.
That was really exhausting.
Just as Li Qin was riding his bicycle along the main road and over a small hill, he saw a fairly large grove of trees on the side of the road ahead.
The dim lighting in the surroundings added to the unsettling atmosphere.
However, Li Qin was highly skilled and daring, and there was no fear or worry on his face.
He continued riding his bicycle briskly, even singing strange songs that people of this era couldn't understand.
Suddenly, a strange look flashed in Li Qin's eyes as he rode his bicycle.
