Siheyuan: I can always stay out of it
Chapter 25: I Just Want to Have a Clear Conscience
"Can you do it?"
Lin Chan looked disgusted. At first, it was OK, Chen Xu could barely keep up with her, but later it became impossible. Now Lin Chan had to wait for Chen Xu for a while after walking a distance.
"Okay, it must be done."
Chen Xu persisted with gritted teeth. He had rested several times when he came here empty-handed. Now he was walking back carrying two rabbits without a single rest. Now he felt a little exhausted.
But whatever a man says, he has to agree to it. It doesn't matter if he doesn't agree to it. How can a man not agree to it?
Unfortunately, no matter how hard I try, my body seems to have reached its limit.
Chen Xu sat down on a stone by the roadside and refused to leave no matter what. Lin Chan next to him rolled his eyes.
"Why don't we take the water route? I remember that you have bamboo rafts in Linjia Village, right? We can go down the river from your village and directly reach my doorstep."
Chen Xu asked weakly.
"You didn't even tell me, I thought you liked hiking."
Lin Chan said confidently.
Chen Xu sighed. He only remembered this matter halfway through his journey.
"How about I carry you?"
"No, absolutely not."
Chen Xu refused righteously. He said that a grown man needed a woman to carry him when he walked. He would never abandon this person in his lifetime.
"Okay, then, cheer yourself up."
Lin Chan just said it casually, and if he didn't want to, forget it.
Since he was bored, Chen Xu started to make small talk.
"So, is your strength natural?"
"Maybe. I've been very strong since I was a child."
Lin Chan did not hide the fact that she had been much stronger than others since she was a child. She could be said to have been born with supernatural powers. In addition, she had martial arts passed down from her family. Lin Chan, who had been practicing martial arts since she was a child, became unstoppable and ended up giving birth to such a monster.
Chen Xu was a little envious. His space could at most protect him from all diseases, but it could not strengthen his body. He had to recuperate slowly on his own. It would probably take him at least a year or two to recover to his normal level.
After all, it is hard to imagine how much loss a body would suffer if it died of starvation.
Chen Xu stopped pretending and said, "I'm just tired. I can't walk anymore so I'll just take a rest." Lin Chan didn't say anything. In fact, she knew that Chen Xu's physical condition was similar to that of most people nowadays. The people in Linjia Village were not normal because they practiced martial arts, and they were no match for a monster like her.
There was no one in the village. It seemed that everyone had gone out to find food. Chen Xu was happy about this.
The two of them went directly to Chen Xu's hometown. Lin Chan looked at the small river in the backyard of Chen's house and laughed. If they had taken the water route, they would have arrived earlier and this guy wouldn't have been so tired.
"Just put it in the main room."
"Row."
Putting the two sacks by the door of the main room, Lin Chan said goodbye.
"The things have been delivered, and I should leave now."
"Would you like to have a drink of water before you leave?"
"No, I'm not thirsty."
Lin Chan waved her hand and walked out of the yard. Chen Xu watched this extraordinary woman leave so quickly and efficiently, and finally disappeared around the corner.
He shook his head, dispelling the ripples in his heart. Even if he wanted to find a wife, he had to wait until he was settled.
After closing the door, Chen Xu took the things directly into the space.
Looking at these prey, Chen Xu began to think about how to deal with them. It was impossible to hand them all over to the factory. He was in need of nutrition right now, so it was good enough that he didn't keep all of them.
However, the appearance of sparrows directly accelerated the speed of the space a lot, and he felt happy. When the space was bigger, he could carry out breeding and planting plans.
It would be a shame not to grow something now that we have the space to act according to our own ideas.
Chen Xu opened the sack directly, and a sparrow flew out instantly, then crashed into the invisible boundary and died on the spot.
Black Stone: Space expansion speed -1
Chen Xu: ...
Instead, some half-dead ones are still struggling in the bag.
All the sparrows were poured out. Most of those at the bottom of the sack were dead. However, there were a few survivors at the mouth of the sack, about a dozen of them, still alive, but they didn't look very well.
After some estimation, he found that a sparrow and a small fish were similar in capacity, and could expand the diameter of the space by about one centimeter per month. He didn't know how this was calculated.
Chen Xu didn't care about that and put the dead sparrow back into the sack.
After knowing that the sparrow was not as useful as the small fish, Chen Xu lost interest in this thing.
You can raise a bunch of small fish in your own pond, but if you raise a nest of sparrows, Chen Xu will be annoyed to death.
Once you raise hundreds or thousands of small fish, you can expand by several meters to more than ten meters in a month, and then you can start to snowball. With the space cleaning function, these small fish should be difficult to die. The only problem is what to feed them.
“I wonder if fish eat bran…”
Chen Xu could only think of this. This thing was easy to buy and cheap in the past. Last year, many people who were very hungry used this thing to fill their stomachs.
But that was last year. This year, bran is hard to buy, so they started chewing tree bark and grass roots. Next year, it will be even worse. They will start eating soil directly.
Forget it, let’s talk about it later in Sijiu City.
The sun was setting, so it should be around 4 or 5 in the afternoon. It would not be impossible to rush back to Sijiu City. Chen Xu was thinking about whether to go back tomorrow or leave today.
He had no intention of taking the bus. If he rode a bicycle, it would be about ten miles from Chenjia Village to the commune, and at least fifty miles from the commune to Sijiucheng. It would probably take several hours to get there.
Nowadays, the roads in the countryside are all dirt roads paved with pebbles and some stones of different sizes. It is okay to walk on them, but if you ride a bicycle, it not only tests your skills but also hurts your butt.
Chen Xu paid attention to the road surface when he came here by bus. Riding on a bus is already bumpy, so riding a bicycle can be imagined. It would probably be dark by the time he returns to the old city.
Chen Xu decisively gave up the idea of going back today.
He took out the steamed corn bread placed in the corner of the space. He had eaten one this morning. Now he was almost starving. After taking a few bites, he picked up the bowl used in the cafeteria and filled it with water from the sink. Then, after the space was purified, he forced the corn bread stuck in his throat down his throat.
Watching the sky gradually approaching evening, Chen Xu finally took out about a pound of wild boar meat from the space and planned to give it to his third uncle.
Just based on the favor that he was going to give him yesterday by giving him his savings, it was worth it for him to do so.
Chen Xu was not a completely emotionless person. If someone treated him well, no matter what the reason was, he would still be willing to give the same respect. Moreover, he knew that Chen Dan had no way to say anything to his cousin who was acting in a guise.
But just have a clear conscience.
Chen Xu thought silently that people must have a social circle in their life. After all, humans are social animals. Although his third uncle's family is poor, they are worth interacting with.
Forget about rabbits and sparrows. The old villagers say that these animals don’t grow meat. Don’t make things worse for Uncle San’s family. Pheasants are not okay either. I want to eat them myself...
One can do things according to his energy. He was able to give away a pound of pork because he had fifty pounds. He would never be able to do something like Kong Rong giving away his pears in his entire life.
As for the factory, we have to think of some solution.
There is a saying that all businessmen are dishonest. Since it is said that the game factory will purchase directly, there is an opportunity to take advantage of.
Lin Chan sold it to him at the market price, but he sold it to the factory at a different price. If there was no profit to be made, why would he travel so far and take the risk just for the monthly salary of 17.5 yuan?
Regardless of past and present lives, buyers never make money by relying on salaries...
