Chapter 456 Li Qin Asks for Help
Seeing everyone's curiosity about what he had brought back, Li Qin smiled and spoke again:
"Winter is just around the corner, and it's going to get really cold. As you all know, it's really hard to get any new cotton these days."
So I went to various recycling stations and collected some discarded cotton clothes and quilts that others didn't want.
Surprisingly, I was quite lucky and actually managed to collect some.
After hearing Li Qin's words, many people showed envy on their faces.
For ordinary people, there is no such thing as disliking these old things.
Just as Li Qin said, it's not easy to get cotton during this period.
During this period, cotton production was extremely low, so it could take several years to gather enough cotton for a quilt or a set of cotton clothing.
So if you can get some old cotton clothes and quilts, you just need to take out the cotton, wash them clean, and then sew them up again.
For most families, there isn't much difference between it and a new one.
Many people around immediately showed expressions of interest.
"I need to go back and pack, so I won't talk to you any longer."
After sending out the message he wanted to release, Li Qin then slowly pushed his bicycle toward the backyard.
Watching his departing figure, some people behind him couldn't help but sigh softly;
"I used to think that Xiao Li didn't know how to manage money because he would cook delicious food from time to time, but now it seems that Xiao Li is not someone who doesn't know how to manage money."
Although the residents of the courtyard house didn't have any objections to Li Qin occasionally cooking a delicious meal.
After all, Li Qin used his own money, and he always kept the doors and windows tightly closed when cooking.
It doesn't seem like they intended to provoke the surrounding residents.
This left the residents with no excuse to say anything about Li Qin.
However, behind his back, people couldn't help but say that Li Qin's spending habits showed he wasn't a thrifty person.
However, judging from Li Qin's actions today, it's clear that Li Qin isn't completely clueless about everyday life.
On the contrary, they are very intelligent.
At least their minds work faster than theirs.
They actually thought of collecting old cotton clothes and quilts from a recycling station.
"I'm planning to go to the nearby recycling station this afternoon to see if I can collect some old clothes like Li Qin did. Does anyone want to go?"
Immediately afterwards, someone suddenly made a suggestion.
Upon hearing this, some people immediately showed an unnatural expression.
In fact, many people already had this thought after hearing what Li Qin said.
However, everyone tacitly refrained from saying it aloud.
Because once everyone goes there, the competition will be fierce.
Unexpectedly, it was eventually exposed, and now even those who weren't initially interested were considering going. [Emotional Power +1000]

As soon as Li Qin left the backyard, he heard the system notification, but he was not surprised at all.
He had anticipated this scene long ago, when he decided to bring the items back openly and reveal their origin.
Li Qin parked his bicycle outside the window, then unloaded the items from the bicycle and carried them into the house.
Although these things combined are not light, they are a very easy task for Li Qin, who has a strong physique.
Despite his current thin and frail appearance, Li Qin possesses immense power within him.
This is all thanks to the changes brought about by the fusion with the divine essence, as well as the ample nutrition he has received every day for the past few months.
Compared to when he first transmigrated, his physical abilities have been greatly enhanced.
Even his height has increased significantly.
Upon returning home, Li Qin first brewed a pot of tea, leisurely drank a cup, and rested for a while before coming out of the house again.
He went straight to the front yard and knocked on a door.
"Knock knock knock!"
Soon the door opened, revealing a woman in her fifties.
When the other person saw Li Qin, a look of surprise flashed in their eyes, followed by a genuine smile:
"Oh, it's Xiao Li. What's up?"
Li Qin smiled and nodded, then said:
"Hello, Aunt Miao. I've come here because I need your help with something. Do you have some time?"
Li Qin went to Miao Miao's house, which lived in the front yard.
Miao Miao's family consists of only three people;
Besides the little girl Miaomiao, the other two are Miaomiao's grandmother, Aunt Miao, and Miaomiao's mother, Widow Ruan.
Within the courtyard house, Miao Miao's family was considered one of the truly impoverished households.
None of the family members had stable jobs, except for Widow Ruan, who worked as a temporary worker in a factory.
The wages weren't high, and Aunt Miao took on odd jobs in the neighborhood, such as pasting paper boxes to supplement her family's income.
This is one of the reasons why Li Qin approached the Miao family.
After hearing Li Qin's words, Aunt Miao nodded in agreement without any hesitation:
"Xiao Li, don't be shy. Just tell me if you need any help. I won't refuse if it's within my power."
Aunt Miao is a kind-hearted person, and Li Qin would often give Miao Miao some snacks.
In addition, they would occasionally find excuses to help their family.
The Miao people had always wanted to repay Li Qin, but they had never found an opportunity. This time, Li Qin took the initiative to come to them, so naturally they would not refuse.
Seeing that Aunt Miao agreed without saying a word and without even making any demands, Li Qin's smile became even wider.
Li Qin did not expect anything in return when he helped the Miao people.
But nobody wants to help someone who is ungrateful.
It turns out that his previous decision to help the Miao people was the right one; they are indeed a grateful family.
Li Qin was even more willing to hand the matter over to Aunt Miao.
"Aunt Miao, you can feel it too, the temperature has started to drop slowly. I've collected some old cotton clothes and quilts."
I plan to take the cotton out of these old clothes and bedding, wash it, and then sew it into a door curtain and a cotton quilt.
However, I spend my days either working at a steel rolling mill or going to the countryside to purchase supplies, and I'm not particularly good at these delicate tasks.
So I wanted to ask you for your help, but if you don't have time, then forget it.
Upon hearing Li Qin's words, Aunt Miao quickly shook her head:
"If you ask me to help with other things, I might be willing but unable, but if it's just disassembling, washing, and sewing, then that's definitely no problem."
At first, Aunt Miao was a little worried that Li Qin would ask her to do things beyond her capabilities.
But needlework was no challenge for her.
This is within her capabilities.
Therefore, without the slightest hesitation, he readily agreed.
Seeing this, Li Qin smiled and nodded;
"Then I'll trouble you. I'll bring you those old cotton-padded clothes and quilts later."
"good!"
Aunt Miao smiled and nodded.
Just then, Li Qin suddenly thought of something else and spoke again:
"I found quite a few cotton-padded clothes and quilts this time. If you were to handle them all by yourself, you might not be able to manage them all. I'll go to the Intermediate People's Court and ask Grandma Tie Niu for help."
If Aunt Wang is willing to help, you can work together; that way it will be faster.
