The Wizard's Journey Begins in a Courtyard House

Chapter 593 Prevention is better than cure

Li Qin didn't refuse and nodded in agreement, "Okay, Uncle Li, I'll rest for a few days and then visit Auntie this weekend."

Upon receiving Li Qin's reply, a smile immediately appeared in Li Huaide's eyes.

"Then it's settled. Remember to come over for dinner this weekend."

Li Huaide quickly finalized the matter.

Li Huaide and his wife still have a very good relationship, and he truly cares about his wife's feelings.

He believed that when he returned home that evening and told his wife about Li Qin's reply, his wife would be very happy.

After finishing their business, the two then began to chat casually.

Perhaps because he had resolved a major issue on his mind, Li Huaide was in high spirits and chatted with Li Qin in the office.

Of course, it could also be because Li Huaide wasn't too busy today.

Otherwise, how could Li Huaide have the leisure to chat with Li Qin?

Li Qin had originally planned to take his leave and go home after finishing his business, but seeing how interested Li Huaide was, he didn't want to interrupt him.

Since he didn't have anything else to do, he spent his time drinking tea, smoking, and chatting in Li Huaide's office.

With only about an hour left before the end of the workday, Li Huaide finally let Li Qin go.

As Li Qin left Li Huaide's office, he felt a mix of emotions.

"I never realized my uncle could be such a chatterbox."

Li Qin couldn't help but shake his head, a helpless bitter smile flashing across his face.

Perhaps for others, such an intimate chat with their leader would be something they would be eager to do, but for Li Qin, it only felt somewhat helpless.

With his different status and confidence, Li Qin didn't need to use this to get closer to Li Huaide, and his perspective on things naturally changed as well.

After saying goodbye to Li Huaide, Li Qin did not rush to leave the steel rolling mill, but instead turned around and went back to the purchasing department.

He went straight to Wang Dawei's small office;

"Team leader, I probably won't be coming to the steel mill for the next few days. I'm a bit tired from working in the countryside lately and want to rest at home."

Since Li Huaide had offered him a favor, Li Qin naturally wouldn't waste it.

In the next few days, he planned to develop his organization and recruit several followers.

Although it can be done at night, if it can be done during the day, he won't need to stay up late and work hard at night.

Upon hearing Li Qin's words, Wang Dawei subconsciously glanced at Li Qin's expression.

I noticed that her face and eyes were indeed full of fatigue.

Wang Dawei nodded quickly;

"Since you're tired, just stay home and rest for a few days. You can come back to work when you're well. Don't worry, I'll have Changxia record your attendance as if you went out to buy supplies."

Although Li Huaide would say hello later, Li Qin couldn't help but smile when he saw Wang Dawei being so generous.

He then thanked her with a happy expression, saying, "Thank you, team leader!"

In fact, given the value Li Qin has demonstrated, even without Li Huaide, Wang Dawei wouldn't have made harsh demands on Li Qin.

It is no exaggeration to say that Li Qin now single-handedly undertakes nearly one-third to one-half of the procurement tasks for three groups.

It was thanks to Li Qin that the three groups were able to complete their monthly purchasing tasks even in winter, and even have a surplus.

That's why, when other departments were being criticized, Group Three always stood out.

This also made Wang Dawei very popular in front of the factory leaders.

And it wasn't just once or twice, but for several consecutive months.

Although Wang Dawei still has some ideas about the channels in Li Qin's hands, he will only take good care of Li Qin until he gets the channels.

Of course, after securing the distribution channels, Wang Dawei wouldn't go too far with Li Qin.

After all, Li Qin had Li Huaide behind him.

That's the highest-ranking leader directly in charge of logistics.

They are not people that Wang Dawei can afford to offend now.

Because of Li Huaide, Wang Dawei also considered not targeting the channels controlled by Li Qin.

But in the end, he still didn't give up.

He felt he was the team leader, but now he was constantly being controlled by Li Qin.

This made him very upset.

Even though Li Qin had been very cooperative throughout.

After all, no one can guarantee that Li Qin will continue to cooperate like this forever.

To prevent problems before they arise, it's best to keep the channels in your own hands.

Moreover, once he controls the distribution channels, his position will be further consolidated, and his importance to the steel rolling mill will be greatly enhanced.

Then you'll have more opportunities to continue making progress.

Although Li Qin sensed that Wang Dawei wasn't as good as he seemed, he also noticed that the other party seemed to have some plans in mind.

He just didn't care.

Of course, if Li Qin knew that this was what Wang Dawei was planning, he would be speechless.

Because both the so-called channels and the hunters were fabricated by him.

All the supplies he acquired were produced by the space itself.

If we have to talk about channels, then the channel is Li Qin himself.

After saying goodbye to Wang Dawei, Li Qin left the steel rolling mill with peace of mind.

Because of the delay, there was only about half an hour left before the steel rolling mill closed.

Li Qinzhi then increased the speed of his bicycle ride.

After about ten minutes, Li Qin finally returned to the courtyard house.

The reason he was in such a hurry to go back was not for any other reason than that he had to rush back to pretend to make dinner.

When the residents of the courtyard saw Li Qin return, they all greeted him with smiles and even took the initiative to say hello.

The tone was also quite good.

Even the Yan family in the front yard, and Aunt Er in the back yard, were like that.

And all of this was thanks to the bone broth that Li Qin had sent over back then.

Although what was served was bone broth, Li Qin used enough ingredients to extract all the bone marrow.

Bone marrow contains a large amount of rich nutrients and oils.

Add cabbage and radish.

Most importantly, the bone broth that Li Qin sent over tasted absolutely amazing.

It directly won over the stomachs of the residents of the courtyard house.

Now they are all warm and friendly to Li Qin, many of them hoping to build a good relationship with him so that they will have the opportunity to eat Li Qin's food again in the future.

Li Qin was somewhat aware of what these people were thinking.

He didn't care about that.

In Li Qin's mind, a little bit of food was nothing at all.

As long as the people in the courtyard don't cause trouble and can live peacefully, Li Qin doesn't mind sharing some things with these residents.

Of course, the main reason is that the current residents have not yet become the beasts in Li Qin's memory.

That's why he was willing.

If these people ever turn into what we remember, then it's no wonder we won't be able to get food from Li Qin.

It's already a good thing that Li Qin didn't directly make him disappear.

The main problem is that the residents of the courtyard house in the story are just awful people.

It's absolutely mind-blowing.

However, most of the residents in the courtyard houses are still quite normal. At most, they are just not very knowledgeable and are easily fooled.

That's what it means to be fooled by Yi Zhonghai.
