Once outside courtyard number 93, Li Kaixin's steps returned to normal, and she no longer needed her mother and younger siblings to support her.

Mother Qin Xiuli asked in surprise, "Kaixin, you're not drunk?"

"Mother, this little bit of wine is nothing to me," Li Kaixin said with a smile, shaking her head.

Mother Qin Xiuli breathed a sigh of relief: "It's good that you're not drunk. Then let Xiaokai and Xiaoxiao take you home, and I'll go help everyone pack up."

"Wait, Mother!" Li Kaixin grabbed her mother's arm. "Don't go back yet, so they won't feel uncomfortable."

The mother, Qin Xiuli, stopped and looked at her eldest son, waiting for him to continue.

"Mother, they're probably asking Uncle Wang right now if I'll bring them back cheap things when I travel long distances in the future," Li Kaixin said in a low voice.

Qin Xiuli, the mother, was a sensible person. She immediately recalled the enthusiasm with which everyone toasted Li Kaixin at the banquet and the state of her husband when he was drunk.

She couldn't help but ask, "Kaixin, so what are you really thinking?"

"Of course it's the same as before," Li Kaixin said calmly. "Mother, you know what the situation is like at No. 94 Courtyard."

In truth, he never intended to bring his belongings to Courtyard No. 94, let alone share them with his neighbors there.

"Kaixin, what you said is indeed true!" Mother Qin Xiuli nodded.

Back in the house in courtyard number 94, I lit the kerosene lamp, and the whole room was instantly illuminated.

Upon seeing the clean and bright house, younger brother Li Kai immediately perked up: "Big brother, big brother, when are you going to let me move in too?"

"What, can't our house accommodate you anymore?" Mother Qin Xiuli glanced at her second son.

Li Kai, the younger brother, shrank back and muttered softly, "But Big Brother clearly promised us before."

Seeing this, Li Kaixin quickly smoothed things over: "Okay, okay, I'll clean up the inner room in a few days and divide it into two rooms, then you and Xiaoxiao can both come and stay."

"Yay! Thank you, big brother!" Li Kai, the younger brother, exclaimed excitedly.

Li Xiaoxiao, the younger sister, also looked up at her older brother with bright, sparkling eyes.

Looking at the three siblings, their mother, Qin Xiuli, smiled helplessly: "Kaixin, just keep spoiling them!"

"My own younger brother and sister, if I don't spoil them, who will?" Li Kaixin replied with a smile, then took out three keys from her pocket. "Mom, these are the new keys I made. Please keep them safe."

Qin Xiuli, the mother, did not refuse and reached out to take it.

As her mother left with her younger siblings, Li Kaixin secretly slipped a handful of milk candies into her younger sister's hand.

Although his family was not short of money, he still tried his best to treat everyone equally.

Especially in this era where male preference is still prevalent, girls are always more sensitive to these little things.

After seeing off his mother and younger siblings, Li Kaixin flashed into the secret space and took out the ginseng that Station Chief Zhao had given him earlier that day.

This ginseng is in very good condition; it's not completely dry yet, and it looks like it can still be planted.

Li Kaixin carefully cut off several sections of ginseng rootlets for use in medicine preparation.

The remaining main root was planted together with the two large ginseng plants.

Li Kaixin silently apologized to Station Master Zhao in his heart.

We can only wait until there are more aged ginseng in this secret realm in the future, and then we can properly compensate Station Chief Zhao.

After refining the medicine, Li Kaixin also prepared the chickens, ducks, rabbits, and chicken and duck eggs to be traded the next day.

Besides what he had agreed upon with Zhao Zhengping, he also planned to make a trip to the black market to sell off all the goods he had accumulated.

Finally, they prepared two months' worth of food for the breeding area before leaving the space.

The next morning, Li Kaixin rode his bicycle to the transportation station. As soon as he handed the bicycle to Zhou Zhiming, he went straight to Station Chief Zhao's office.

He was sitting at his desk, staring intently at the documents.

It wasn't until there was a knock on the office door that Station Chief Zhao snapped out of his daze, clearing his throat: "Come in."

"Good morning, stationmaster." Li Kaixin pushed open the door and entered with a smile on his face.

"Come on, Kaixin, sit down, sit down." Station Master Zhao immediately stood up from his chair, a smile spreading across his face.

After Li Kaixin sat down in the chair opposite him, Station Chief Zhao's gaze involuntarily fell on his hands, his tone tinged with urgency: "Kaixin, that medicine you..."

"It's done, stationmaster," Li Kaixin said, taking a small medicine bottle from his pocket and handing it over.

Station Chief Zhao took the medicine bottle and was somewhat surprised to see that it contained more than ten brown pills: "Kaixin, are there this many?"

"Station manager, you can try it out now." Li Kaixin nodded with a smile.

After thinking it over, Station Chief Zhao decided to try one first.

After all, it's for his own father, so he needs to have a clear idea of ​​what's going on first.

He opened the bottle, poured out a pill, and swallowed it without hesitation.

Seeing that Station Chief Zhao had taken his medicine, Li Kaixin reminded him:

"Stationmaster, you should feel the effects about half an hour after you take it. If you experience any discomfort, please let me know."

He wasn't worried about the drug's effectiveness, but since he had received such a large benefit from Station Chief Zhao, he felt he had to provide excellent service, otherwise his conscience wouldn't allow it.

"Okay, I'm happy." Station Chief Zhao nodded and carefully put the medicine bottle away.

After leaving Station Chief Zhao's office, Li Kaixin turned around and went to Director Xie's office.

After carefully putting away the ginseng root that Director Xie had handed him, which was over thirty years old, Li Kaixin recalled what had happened yesterday and casually asked, "Uncle Xie, what did Sun Yingjun say when he came to your office yesterday?"

"You little brat, don't play dumb with me. Of course I'm here to tell on you."

Director Xie chuckled and cursed, but his face immediately fell, and he couldn't help but swear:

"Damn it, that kid's a complete idiot! He walked into the office yesterday and started acting all high and mighty, like he's someone important. I really regret switching him now."

"Uncle Xie, please calm down. Getting angry will harm your health," Li Kaixin quickly advised.

Director Xie's expression softened somewhat, and he lowered his voice to ask, "By the way, Kaixin, how long will it take to prepare this medicine?"

"Uncle Xie, don't worry, I'll definitely bring it to you tomorrow," Li Kaixin replied with a smile.

"Then I'll be waiting." Director Xie smiled slightly, then added a word of caution:

"And that Sun Yingjun, if he dares to cause trouble for you again, don't let it go. If he really causes any trouble, I'll take responsibility for it."

"Uncle Xie, aren't you afraid I'll go looking for trouble with him?" Li Kaixin blinked.

Director Xie was amused by him: "You little rascal, you're really going to argue with me now, get to work!"

"Okay, Uncle Xie." Li Kaixin replied with a smile and turned to walk out of the office.
