Chapter 458 Mao Sui Recommends Himself
Li Qin originally planned to return directly to his home in the backyard after leaving the Miao family.
But to his surprise, he was stopped by three women as soon as he stepped out of the Miao village.
The three women looked at Li Qin with smiles on their faces:
"Xiao Li, I overheard you saying you have some winter clothes that you'd like someone to help you take apart and wash?"
Upon hearing this, Li Qin frowned immediately.
Li Qin kept his request for help from the two elderly women very low-key and didn't publicize it.
Logically, no one should know, but now that the third auntie suddenly said this, Li Qin couldn't help but suspect that the other party had been eavesdropping.
Li Qin already didn't have a very good impression of the Yan family.
The thought that the other party was eavesdropping made her feel even worse.
The smile on Li Qin's face immediately faded considerably.
He said in a somewhat cold tone:
"That is indeed true, but why are you asking about this, Auntie?"
Although the three women sensed that Li Qin's tone was a bit off, they didn't think much of it.
Upon hearing Li Qin's words, the smile on his face widened even further:
"Then why don't you let me do this? After all, Aunt Miao and Aunt Wang are getting old, and they certainly won't be as quick as me at doing the work."
If you hand me your cotton-padded clothes and quilts, I'll definitely take care of them quickly and efficiently.
Upon hearing that the three aunties actually wanted to help him, a look of disdain flashed in Li Qin's eyes.
Li Qin knew the Yan family's character very well; once he agreed...
Let's not even talk about whether it will hurt the feelings of Aunt Wang and Aunt Miao.
Li Qin was not at ease letting the Yan family help with the work.
Li Qin even reasonably suspected that if this matter were really handed over to the Yan family, there would be no way to say whether there would be any extra cotton after the cotton was washed.
It's uncertain whether I can even make the curtains and mattresses for myself with guaranteed quality and quantity.
Moreover, once the Yan family finishes the work, they might—no, they definitely will—demand a fee from Li Qin for their hard work.
Thinking of this, Li Qin immediately sneered, and then directly refused:
"No need to trouble you, Auntie."
Without waiting for the three women to react, he turned around and left the front yard.
Watching Li Qin's departing figure, the third aunt instinctively wanted to reach out and stop him, but Li Qin moved quickly and was gone in just a few steps.
Seeing this, the three women's faces were full of disappointment and regret.
Actually, Li Qin had really misunderstood the third aunt; she hadn't eavesdropped on Li Qin's conversation with the two older women.
Just now, the three aunties came back from the toilet and passed by the Miao family's house because the door was not closed.
So I could vaguely hear Li Qin talking to the two old women.
When the three women heard that Li Qin was willing to give away enough cotton to make a cotton-padded coat for an adult, they were immediately tempted.
That's why I've been waiting in the front yard.
They wanted to snatch this cushy job.
Unexpectedly, Li Qin disagreed, and the three aunts immediately looked in the direction of the Miao family with envious eyes.
Finally, I sighed helplessly and went home.
When Li Qin got home, he first tidied up the house. Usually, Li Qin would use magic spells to tidy up the room, but occasionally he would also do the work himself.
Because the temperature had started to drop, Li Qin first tidied up all the summer clothes and bedding in the house.
First, they used magic to clean it up, and then they stacked it neatly one by one.
Then Li Qin put them all into the cabinet on the second floor.
Next, change the winter bedding onto the bed and put the winter clothes into the usual wardrobe.
By the time Li Qin finished everything, more than an hour had passed.
Although these were not physically strenuous tasks, Li Qin found himself sweating profusely after finishing them.
Li Qin is a clean person and doesn't like feeling sticky.
He then slipped into the suitcase space and took a good shower inside.
Then he returned to his home in the courtyard house.
"I have to say, it feels pretty good to do some exercise and work up a sweat once in a while."
Sitting in the living room, Li Qin sipped his tea and muttered to himself.
Perhaps because he hadn't done any physical work for a long time, Li Qin didn't feel tired at all after all the activity today.
On the contrary, I felt very comfortable.
But if Li Qin were to work like this every day, he would naturally not be willing.
This kind of thing is fine to do occasionally.
After resting for a while, Li Qin began to think about what to do next.
There's no need to worry about Hong Kong for now; everything is proceeding according to plan.
The key is still the city of Beijing.
Winter is just around the corner.
Normally, the animals in the mountains will hide away during the winter, so he needs to be careful when providing supplies in the following months.
At least we can no longer release large numbers of wild boars, pheasants, and rabbits like before.
Li Qin secretly calculated in his mind that, without making it seem unreasonable, he would have to reduce the amount of supplies he provided by at least half in the next few months.
Even so, it is still a considerable amount.
It's enough to complete personal tasks or help colleagues.
So the impact isn't that significant.
As for the black market, Li Qin was not worried at all.
The supplies he now provides to the black market have become much more diverse than just wild boar, rabbit, and pheasant.
Regular pork, chicken, and eggs are now available.
As for other things, Li Qin has them, but he does not intend to offer them for sale on the black market.
This is enough for now.
Providing more items and varieties would exceed the tolerance limit mentioned above.
Li Qin simply wanted to collect gold and silver, as well as other items that interested him, through the black market.
I don't want to be targeted.
Although he was confident that even if he was targeted, trouble wouldn't come to Li Qin, the purchasing agent, it would still affect his black market business.
This will also affect his income.
After some thought, Li Qin came up with a general plan for the next few months.
He plans to go with the flow for the next few months, try not to cause trouble, and spend his free time reading books in the library to enrich himself.
Alternatively, one could continue learning the knowledge passed down through generations and complete the divine upgrade as soon as possible.
The rest of the time was spent managing the Pagoda Space effectively while steadily developing industries in Hong Kong.
With a plan in place, Li Qin's thinking became clearer.
However, when Li Qin made his plan, he didn't consider that while he could control himself from causing trouble, he couldn't control others.
The people in the courtyard have been preparing for their professional level assessments lately.
I don't have the energy to cause trouble.
But after this matter is over, will the people in the courtyard still be so at ease?
Li Qin may not have thought of these things, or he may have subconsciously overlooked them. After all, although the people in the courtyard are difficult to deal with, ordinary people would not be able to live an easy life in the courtyard.
But Li Qin was no ordinary person.
He is a wizard who has mastered countless magical spells.
No matter how difficult the people in the courtyard were, Li Qin had plenty of ways to deal with them.
