"I spent a long time choosing the fabric. The little red mushrooms on it are especially beautiful. I've never seen mushrooms with such a beautiful color before."

Jie Chi, who was enjoying his drink, paused.

He had actually noticed the two extra items in the space long ago. The little hat looked exquisite. He had seen them make quite a few before, supposedly to sell for money.

But He couldn't figure out what this soft, long, sock-like thing was for.

Upon suddenly hearing that this thing was actually a garment made specifically for her, her small, beady eyes widened in disbelief.

He, the great, unique, and extraordinary divine beast who controls time and space travel, is wearing this kind of thing?

The Jiechi stretched out a claw, hooked the sock, and flung it far away. It turned its head to the side, its whole body radiating disgust.

"Grandma Duck, don't you like it?" When Ya Ya saw her like this, her bright eyes dimmed, her lips drooped, and her little face fell, full of disappointment.

"I spent a long time carefully choosing the fabric, and my aunt put a lot of care into making it, stitch by stitch. Sister Gouya even added lots of pretty little beads. If you don't like it..."

The Jiechi's ears twitched.

"It's okay if you don't like it... I won't be sad and I won't tell Aunt Chuntao and the others. It's just that we didn't do it well and it didn't suit your taste. Grandma Duck, what kind do you like? I'll go find one for you next time."

Jie Chi glanced sideways at the little cub outside, whose head was drooping, clearly sad but pretending to be calm and earnestly asking about its preferences. Its little green bean eyes blinked again and again.

He awkwardly shifted his body and beckoned back the 'sock' he had thrown far away earlier.

First, it pawed at the hat a couple of times, then tugged at the "socks." Although its face was full of reluctance, it still slowly put the "socks" on its body.

One of the claws was positioned incorrectly, and I had to awkwardly poke a hole with the tip of the claw to barely fit it in.

Finally, he tied the hat, adorned with beads and small purple flowers, in a crooked manner.

"Alright, alright, are you satisfied now that you're wearing it?" Jie Chi twisted his body, his whole body tense.

It is a divine beast, not a pet to be played with. How could it wear such a thing!

Besides, earthly clothes are neither waterproof nor fireproof and are not resistant to dirt, making it inconvenient for him to eat. If he gets them dirty, the little cub will definitely nag for a long time.

ε=(´ο`*))) alas

Human babies are such a hassle.

Looking at Grandma Duck's stiff and awkward appearance, Ya Ya couldn't help but burst out laughing.

After laughing, she immediately realized what she had done, hurriedly covered her mouth, and even bowed respectfully to the void.

"I'm sorry, Grandma Duck, I didn't mean to laugh at you. It's my fault for making you these clothes without asking. If you're uncomfortable wearing them, you can take them off." Ya Ya whispered, "I just noticed everyone else had new clothes, but you didn't, so I thought I'd make you one..."

Jie Chi let out a soft hum from its nose and pulled off its clothes.

The little hat was securely perched on his head.

Seeing this, Ya Ya seemed to have figured it out a little bit: Grandma Duck in the hat liked it.

"Grandma Duck, is there anything else you like? If you like this hat, I'll make you another one next time."

Jie Chi touched the straw hat with its claws, remained silent for a moment, and finally spoke: "Sparkling, like gems and gold."

Ya Ya withdrew her consciousness from the space.

Gold!

She herself has never seen it!

Grandma Duck's favorite things are really expensive.

I can't afford it now, maybe next time.

Thinking this, Ya Ya tapped her phone to light it up. The number on the back had increased by twenty. There were only ten minutes left. It would be too late to find the store manager uncle. It wouldn't be good if Brother Zhao came over and there was no one here.

I simply found the store manager's name and dialed the number.

"Ya Ya? Why are you suddenly calling your uncle?" Chen Lei was taken aback when he received Ya Ya's call.

"Uncle Shopkeeper, the big entrenching tool you bought me last time is really useful. Grandpa Village Chief, Uncle Zhao, and Brother Da Niu all really like it. Grandma likes it too. Two of them aren't enough."

"I'd like to ask you to go to that store upstairs and buy some more for me." Ya Ya said loudly into the receiver, holding the phone to her ears with both hands.

So that's what it was about.

Chen Lei smiled. He had selected and collected the entrenching tool after watching many content creators on Bilibili analyze it. It was a brand with good quality and many uses. The fact that they liked it proved that his choice was correct.

"Sure, how many do you want? Uncle will place the order for you right away."

"I want... thirty." Ya Ya thought for a moment and then said a number.

Thirty is no small amount; it adds up to more than six thousand yuan.

Chen Lei paused for a moment upon hearing this, but still agreed: "No problem, Uncle will buy it for you right away. You can pick it up in three days."

"Thank you, Uncle Manager! How much is it in total? I... I'll bring the money to you in a bit."

"No rush, you can give it to me when it arrives." Chen Lei waved his hand subconsciously.

When Ya Ya heard what the shopkeeper said, she stopped worrying. She would just go to the shopkeeper and give him the money after she finished dealing with Xiao Zhao's business.

drip-

Two short blasts came from the warehouse entrance.

Ya Ya held her phone and peered outside. The familiar black car slowly pulled up in front of the door.

"Brother Zhao!"

Ya Ya nimbly slid off the chair and ran to the door.

Zhao Junchen pushed open the car door and got out, his gaze sweeping around the warehouse.

The building materials and outdoor bathroom units that were originally piled up have almost all been moved away, leaving only a three-in-one bathroom unit standing in the warehouse. The old man still hasn't come; there's only this small figure at the door.

"Ya Ya, are you here all alone again?"

Ya Ya nodded vigorously, tilting her little face up and saying, "Yes, I can do it all by myself! Brother Zhao, Grandpa Fang wrote something for me to show you; there are a lot of words!"

As she spoke, Ya Ya held the small notebook high with both hands and handed it to Zhao Junchen.

Zhao Junchen reached out and took the notebook, then flipped through it carefully.

The more I looked, the wider my eyes opened.

This village, it really was built from scratch, just as the old man hadn't made empty promises...

The handwriting in the notebook was neat, but it wasn't very professional, with words scattered everywhere.

Solar collectors, solar photovoltaic panels, battery panels, water pumps, meters, converters...

The vocabulary is quite professional, but unfortunately, no specific quantity is given for each word, giving the impression of only having a superficial understanding.

It seems the old man knew his writing wasn't very clear, so he added a long explanation below, the gist of which was that he wanted to buy a solar power generation system that could supply water to the whole village and meet the needs of about twenty households.

Its application scope includes daily electricity use, hot water supply, and village protection.

The old man also wrote that he was given full authority to estimate the price of the purchase specifications, and that he could buy as much or as little as needed, trusting him completely.

And they hope to gather all the supplies on this trip.
