Chapter 318: Bad Luck Continues, Fortunes Turn (Two Chapters in One)

The rain falling outside the house stopped earlier than Lin Li thought.

At noon, the weather cleared up, and all the dark clouds covering the sky disappeared. If the ground were not still wet, it would be as if there had not been a heavy rain.

The food in the inn can’t be said to be very delicious, it can only be said to be average in taste.

Lin Li and Qin Muqing had lunch together. After the meal, he asked Qin Muqing to pack his things and go with him to the house he just bought.

In fact, Qin Muqing had nothing to deal with. Her only property was her backpack.

After checking out the guest room, Lin Li and Qin Muqing walked out of the inn.

The bright sunshine shone on the two of them, making them slightly hot, but because it had just rained, the street was quite cool.

Lin Li looked up at the huge sun hanging in the sky.

Looking directly at the scorching sun, he subconsciously squinted his eyes. He wanted to take out his sunglasses and put them on, but considering that if he walked on the street wearing sunglasses, the number of heads turning would increase rapidly, he gave up. This thought.

They stopped a carriage on the roadside and after getting on the carriage, Lin Li did not go directly to the newly bought house. Instead, he asked the carriage driver to take them to a store where they bought daily necessities.

The reason why I did this is because although the newly purchased house has been decorated and furnished, it does not have any bed sheets, quilt covers, pillows, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar, etc.

Since you are going to live in a new house, you must purchase these essential items.

According to Lin Li's needs, the coachman sent the two people to a busy store covering an area of ​​thousands of square meters and three floors high.

“I didn’t expect that there are places like department stores in this world!” Lin Li stood at the door of the store and saw many products on the rows of shelves inside. He couldn’t help but think of Blue Star. department store.

Qin Muqing stood quietly beside Lin Li and noticed the surprised expression on Lin Li's face. She was a little confused, "Isn't it a department store? Why is Mr. Lin so surprised?"

"Let's go in. Let's go!" Lin Li said to Qin Muqing beside him, and then took the lead to walk to the different world department store in front of him.

The first floor of this department store sells all kinds of food, including oil, salt, sauce and vinegar that Linli needs.

After asking the staff in the store, he learned that the bedding he wanted to buy was on the second floor, so Lin Li decided to go to the second floor to buy the bedding, and then go to the first floor to buy oil, salt, sauce and vinegar.

“Sir, Miss, our bedding is made of the best materials, and the quality is absolutely guaranteed.

You can use it with confidence, but if there are quality problems within six months, you can ask us for a refund. ”

The experienced staff could tell that the two customers in front of them really wanted to buy something, so she sold them enthusiastically.

Although Lin Li was not convinced about the quality of these bedding products. I don’t know much about it, but I think you get what you pay for. The price on the sign is not low, but the quality The quantity shouldn't be much different, so he nodded and decided to place the order.

At this time, Lin Li felt someone tugging on his sleeve and turned his head. Looking over, he found Qin Muqing standing next to him pulling on his sleeves

"What's wrong?" Lin Li looked at the other party in confusion and asked.

"Mr. Lin, you don't have to buy me such a good pillow or quilt, I can just use that one." Qin Muqing whispered, and then she raised her finger and pointed to a pile not far away. Bedding with special offers written on it.

Those items on sale should be the store's clearance inventory. Although the quality is not bad, Lin Li obviously doesn't like them.

The staff member who enthusiastically promoted Lin Li felt his heart skip a beat when he heard what Qin Muqing said, and secretly thought something was wrong.

In order to prevent the soon-to-be-earned results from going away, she was going to severely belittle those special clearance items so that Lin Li would not change his mind.

As a result, the worries in her heart disappeared before she could say anything, because Lin Li did not change his purchase intention because of Qin Muqing's words.

"Those products with special offers don't look very good, so you might as well buy the ones I like..." Lin Li said to Qin Muqing, and then he motioned to the staff in front of him to prepare the products for him. .

"Sir, Miss, please come with me here." The staff quickly prepared the goods Lin Li wanted to buy, and then called them to the place where they paid to check out.

After settling the bill, the staff smiled and helped Lin Li move the things he bought downstairs. As a result, Lin Li directly took the things he bought into the mysterious island on the spot. This operation of his But everyone present widened their eyes in shock.

Everyone who saw this scene knew at this time that Lin Li was a practitioner, and he was also a practitioner who had awakened the power of the storage space.

Lin Li was accustomed to the reactions of the people around him, and this was all within his expectations.

After all, he had seen this situation many times, but he did not notice that Qin Muqing, who was standing behind him, had a strange expression on his face when he saw him putting things away. Not as shocked as others.

…………

At around two o’clock in the afternoon, the carriage driven by Lin Li and Qin Muqing drove into a sparsely populated street.

The carriage drove slowly on the streets paved with bluestones.

Lin Li, who was sitting on the carriage, passed by the place where he had fought with the Red Blood Gang.

Through the car window, he found the traces of the previous battle and the remaining blood stains, which had all been washed away by the rain due to the previous heavy rain.

"Huh..."

The coachman pulled the reins in his hands, and the horse stopped immediately.

"Sir, Miss, we are here."

He turned around and shouted to the two passengers in the car, and then the two people got out of the car.

After Lin Li paid the fare, he walked forward with a curious Qin Muqing.

Passing through the large iron gate outside and stepping onto the flat path paved with blue bricks, the two of them walked forward and arrived in front of the villa.

The solid wooden door of the villa in front of him was closed tightly. Lin Li had an idea in his mind and took out the key to the villa from the mysterious island.

“Click.”

Using the key to open the door, Qin Muqing followed Lin Li into the villa.

Seeing the decoration of the lobby on the first floor, she thought to herself that the original owner who built this villa was quite willing to spend money on decoration.

Lin Li took Qin Muqing for a walk around the villa, and then said to him. "I live on the third floor, and you live on the second floor. There are many rooms on the second floor. You can live in any one you want."

"Yes." Qin Muqing nodded, and then Lin Li The things I bought in the department store were taken out from the mysterious island.

Looking at the pile of things in front of him, Qin Muqing immediately entered into his work identity without the need for Lin Li to remind him, and began to put the things that Lin Li had taken out where they should be placed.

Sitting on the sofa in the living room on the first floor, Lin Li, yes, there is a sofa in this world. Looking around at the property he bought in another world, he actually had the illusion that he was on a blue star.

It’s not surprising to have this illusion. After all, the design style and interior decoration of this villa are really not much different from the villas on Blue Star.

If it weren’t for the fact that there are no televisions, refrigerators, air conditioners and other electrical appliances at home, as well as the most important Internet, it would really feel like buying a big villa on Blue Star.

Just when Lin Li thought that there were so many things similar to those on Blue Star in this different world, in the kitchen on the first floor, after placing the oil, salt, sauce, vinegar and other ingredients, Qin Muqing looked ordinary. There was a troubled look on Qi's face.

In order to get Lin Li to take her in, she boasted that she was good at washing and cooking, but in fact she was not.

Even if you are not skilled in doing laundry and other housework, you can still do it as long as you spend more time, but cooking is not possible.

Cooking skills are not achieved overnight and require a lot of practice. Of course, if you are very talented, this practice time will be greatly shortened.

For example, there is a woman named Su on Blue Star. In Lin Li's opinion, she is the kind of person who is extremely talented in cooking.

For Qin Muqing, who has lived a life of fine clothing and fine food since she was a child, she has never cooked before.

Now that she has moved into this villa and works for the owner, she has prepared the oil, salt, sauce, vinegar and other ingredients, so she must take care of the cooking and other things.

"What should we do now? Looking at the current situation, Mr. Lin will have dinner at home in the evening, and I will cook a table of unpalatable meals. Doesn't this give away the truth?"

At this moment, Qin Muqing's smart eyes were full of worry, frowning as she looked at the oil, salt, sauce and vinegar in front of her.

Suddenly, a voice came from the direction of the living room, "Qin Muqing, come here."

Qin Muqing, who was thinking about how to pass the cooking test, heard Lin Li calling her, and she hurriedly He responded, and then ran towards the living room in a panic.

Lin Li, who was sitting on the sofa in the living room, saw Qin Muqing walking into the living room in a panic. He raised his hand and pointed to the sofa next door, motioning for the other party to sit down.

"Mr. Lin, what are your orders?" Qin Muqing, who looked like an honest man, asked.

“This is the key to my home.” Lin Li took out a bunch of spare keys from his pocket and put them on the table, and then said, “I usually have a lot of things to do, so I rarely stay at home.< br>
And sometimes I have to go away for business, and it will take several days before I come back. From now on, I will leave it to you to take care of everything at home."

"Yes." Qin Muqing listened carefully and nodded.

Now that the house has been bought and moved in, Qin Muqing's job as nanny has officially begun. It's time to talk about wages. Lin Li gave a price that he thought was reasonable.

"In terms of wages, I will give you 5,000 coppers a month. Can you accept it?"

As soon as the matter of wages was mentioned, Qin Muqing immediately shook his head and objected.

"Mr. Lin, I have room and board at your home, and the salary you gave me is too much, which is inappropriate."

If Qin Muqing still lives the kind of luxurious life that he had before , 5,000 coppers a month’s salary is not enough for her to pay for a piece of jewelry!

Today is different from the past. Qin Muqing, who escaped from home and has been homeless for nearly a month, has suffered a lot, but does she know what the income and consumption level of ordinary people are?

The 5,000 copper monthly salary offered by Lin Li can be said to be nearly double the salary of many people.

"There's nothing inappropriate. The wages have been set." Lin Li's attitude was very firm. When he saw what Qin Muqing had to say, he deliberately darkened his face and said, "If you are not willing to accept it, , then change your job!"

"..." Qin Muqing heard Lin After saying this, Li fell silent and couldn't help but mutter in his heart, "How can anyone be like this? He was unwilling to accept such a high salary, so he threatened to drive them away."

Seeing that Qin Muqing no longer objected, Lin Li Then a smile appeared on his face, he stretched his hand forward, and a small money bag appeared in his hand.

"There is some money in here. If you need money at home, you can just take it from here."

As he said that, Lin Li put the money bag in his hand and put the keys on the table. beside.

"Yes." Qin Muqing nodded, and then said seriously, "Mr. Lin, I will clearly record the expenditure of each sum of money."

Lin Li looked at the person in front of him. A woman with an ordinary appearance and an honest and dull personality, she thought to herself, "From now on, I will hand over my property to this person." It should be easy for an honest woman to take care of it."

"I have to go out to do something now. I won't be at home for dinner tonight, and I won't be back at night. You should lock the door and rest early." There was nothing else to explain. Lin Li stood up, said to Qin Muqing, and then walked out of the villa.

After Qin Muqing is settled, Lin Li will go to the Scarlet Blood Gang in person to have a "cordial and friendly" communication.

After all, people from the other party came to greet me. As a polite and civilized person, it would be a bit unreasonable if he did not respond.

Qin Muqing, who was previously worried about how to pass the cooking test, was relieved when she heard Lin Li said that she would not be eating at home tonight. Then she stood up and sent Lin Li to the door. .

"Okay, you don't have to send him off." Lin Li walked out of the villa, indicating to Qin Muqing that there was no need to send him off anymore, and then walked towards the door in the distance.

Qin Muqing stood at the door of the villa, watching Lin Li walk out of the door until he disappeared, then turned and returned indoors.

"Bang."

After closing the door, the demeanor of this honest and dull woman in Lin Li's eyes immediately changed.

I came to the sofa in the living room and sat down, looking around at the surrounding environment with my smart eyes.

Comparing it with her own home, although it is far inferior, but thinking that she finally has a stable place to stay, Qin Muqing can't help but reveal a happy smile on her face.

“After I escaped from home, I was deceived, lost my wallet, and encountered bad guys who robbed me. I never had good luck. Now it’s really good luck! Lin! Mr. is such a good man..."

Lin Li, who had received a good guy card, was riding a carriage and thinking about his next move.

Broad day was obviously not a good time for a 'friendly visit', so he decided to visit the Red Blood Gang after dark.
