And so, Li Qin stayed in the space for nearly two days.
However, he didn't actually stay in the suitcase space the whole time.
Occasionally, he would choose to step out of his comfort zone and visit some slightly more remote villages in the countryside to make an appearance.
It wasn't until the next day, when Li Qin saw that it was almost time, that he returned to Beijing.
He first went to the steel rolling mill.
Li Qin called out the colleagues who had previously asked him to help procure supplies;
"Alright, I've brought the things you needed back to Beijing, but I can't just bring them directly to the steel mill."
So I found a place to leave it temporarily, and I'll take you to pick it up tonight.
Upon hearing that Li Qin had brought the supplies back, smiles immediately appeared on the faces of all the colleagues.
They naturally had no objections to Li Qin's arrangements.
They all nodded in agreement.
"I'll do whatever you say."
Actually, at the beginning, only two colleagues, Bai Wei and Lu Quan, asked Li Qin to help them get supplies.
But before Li Qin could even do it, the matter was discovered by more colleagues who were not confident in completing the procurement task.
So they all came to Li Qin.
Currently, Li Qin has six or seven colleagues who have asked him to handle supplies.
An ordinary person would not have the ability to help so many people, but for Li Qin, it was just a matter of lifting a finger.
He only needs to take a little action to solve these problems.
Seeing that none of his colleagues had any objections, Li Qin nodded and continued:
"In that case, let's meet at 7:30 pm in front of the restaurant not far from the steel mill gate."
I'll take you to where you'll store your things. Remember to get on your bikes so we can transport them directly.
The restaurant Li Qin mentioned was the same one where Bai Wei and Lu Quan treated them to dinner last time.
Anyone with even a basic understanding of the area will know that place.
Among the people present, apart from Li Qin, who was a newcomer to the purchasing department of the steel rolling mill, the others were all veteran employees who had worked there for more than a year.
They are naturally very familiar with the surrounding environment.
As soon as Li Qin spoke, his colleagues knew what place it was.
They all nodded to indicate that they understood.
After agreeing on the matter, Li Qin immediately rode his bicycle back to the courtyard house.
He hasn't shown up for several days, so he needs to go back.
The residents of the courtyard were very calm about Li Qin's sudden return, and were not surprised at all.
As for Li Qin not returning to the courtyard house for several days, these people were already quite used to it.
This is the norm for purchasing staff.
Li Qin greeted the residents in the courtyard as he slowly made his way to the backyard.
When Li Qin returned to the backyard, he was surprised to see the deaf old lady next door sitting in front of the door resting.
Although he didn't have much affection for the old lady, she was, after all, an elder, so out of politeness, Li Qin still greeted her with a smile.
"Grandma, are you sunbathing?"
When Li Qin saw the deaf old woman, she naturally saw him as well.
A strange light flashed in the deaf old woman's eyes.
The deaf old woman seemed not to have heard Li Qin's greeting.
"Xiao Li, you're back? What did you say just now? I didn't quite hear you."
While speaking, the deaf old woman would place one hand to her ear, as if she wanted to hear more clearly.
Seeing this, Li Qin almost burst out laughing.
Others may not know, but he knows very well that this deaf old woman, although she has always been called the "deaf" old woman.
It always seemed that he had hearing problems.
In reality, the deaf old lady's ears were not deaf at all; on the contrary, they were very functional.
The way they're acting now is clearly a ploy to mess with him.
Li Qin originally wanted to teach the deaf old woman a lesson, but after thinking about it, he decided against it.
He's been quite busy lately and doesn't want to spend his energy on the people in the courtyard house for the time being.
Li Qin immediately shook his head;
"I didn't say anything. You can continue sunbathing. I'm going back now."
Even as the deaf old woman pretended to be deaf, Li Qin still raised his voice.
However, after saying this, Li Qin ignored the other person's reaction and pushed his bicycle towards his home.
Upon hearing Li Qin's "great disrespect," the deaf old woman's eyes and face immediately flashed with dissatisfaction, even resentment.
The deaf old woman originally intended to play tricks on, or even teach Li Qin a lesson, by pretending to be deaf.
This can also be seen as him venting his anger on his eldest son, Yi Zhonghai.
Of course, the most important thing was to let Li Qin know that this Empress Dowager was not someone to be trifled with.
But to his surprise, Li Qin didn't take the bait at all.
This rendered the deaf old woman's scheme completely useless.
The deaf old woman wanted to speak up to stop Li Qin, or even call him back.
Unexpectedly, Li Qin moved very quickly.
After parking the bicycle, I quickly went home.
The words that the deaf old woman was about to say were now stuck in her throat, preventing her from uttering them.
By observing the birds placed in the courtyard, Li Qin could clearly see the deaf old woman's reactions.
A playful smile immediately appeared on Li Qin's lips:
[Emotional Power +500]
[Emotional Power +800]
[Emotional Power +500]
[Emotional Power +700]
[Emotional Power +500]
At the same time, a system notification sounded in my ear;
Upon hearing this suggestion, Li Qin's smile grew even wider.
However, he immediately forgot about the deaf old woman.
After all, the other party was just an old codger, and Li Qin could easily send him on his way at any time if he wanted to.
It's simply not worth him putting too much effort into the other person.
He rested for a while, then went to the kitchen pretending to prepare dinner.
After a while, he carried the prepared food back to his room.
On the surface, he simply stir-fried some greens, chopped some pickled vegetables, and added a large bowl of porridge.
In fact, Li Qin had already put all these things away as soon as he entered the room.
Then, he took out some food that he had previously stored in the storage ring.
Considering the impact, Li Qin chose dishes that didn't have a strong odor.
For example, some braised dishes, or some vegetarian dishes.
Finally, serve with a staple food.
"Perfect!"
Looking at the sumptuous meal on the table, Li Qin began to eat with a satisfied expression.
When Li Qin had almost finished eating, the residents who had gone to work slowly returned to the courtyard.
After these people returned, they heard about Li Qin's return either from their family members or from their neighbors.
People reacted differently to this;
Perhaps it's indifference, hostility, or simply a lack of concern.
However, whenever the residents in the courtyard experience emotional fluctuations, Li Qin's team will collect the corresponding emotional energy.
This can be considered an unexpected bonus.
However, because Li Qin didn't cause any trouble, most of the residents provided very little emotional energy, except for a few people.

Just as Li Qin was finishing his meal, he suddenly heard a system notification. He paused briefly before continuing to eat.
