I rely on the system to support my eighteen brothers and sisters

Inside the door, Qiao Linxi frowned and looked at the snow under his feet.

"Miss, when are we going back to the capital? This Madam Li is really disgusting. The Li family has failed, yet she still has the nerve to come here and speak nonsense."

Seeing Qiao Linxi frowning, He Jiangsan asked, "Miss, what are you thinking about?"

"I'm thinking about how to make the Li family disappear from Lanqing City."

"Well, that's easy. We just need to buy out all of the Li family's shops."

Qiao Linxi said this, but she was not thinking about this question. It has only been more than a month, how can the Li family decline so quickly? Although she has the system's blessing, it can't be that exaggerated, right?

There might be someone helping her behind the scenes. Who could it be?

Qiao Linxi asked the system, but the system didn't say anything. She just listened to the tone of the system and knew who was helping her.

"Oh, why would the host think so much? The host's success is of course inseparable from Xiaojiujiu's support. Didn't you see that the business system has been upgraded? It's now level five."

During these days, Qiao Linxi signed in and participated in the lottery, and used those parts to synthesize a loom that can automatically produce cloth, and a rice mill that can automatically produce high-quality rice.

All these things made Qiao Linxi feel a little panicked. The system provided so many supplies, could it be that it was just to enable her to cope with future extreme weather?

Looking at the snow falling non-stop, is there going to be an ice age? How many people would die in that case?

"Host, please don't let your imagination run wild. As long as Xiao Chuchu is here, you will not die."

Qiao Linxi: I won’t die, but others will.

"Oh! Master Host, don't be so chaste. The death of others has nothing to do with Master Host. As long as the people who are close to Master Host don't die, that's all that matters."

Qiao Linxi thought, yes, she is not a god, how can she take care of so many people? She only needs to take care of her eighteen brothers and sisters.

Just relying on the system's cooked food box, automatic rice machine and automatic loom, they will never starve to death even if they are now living in a barbaric era.

"Little Jiujiu doesn't want to go to the wild era. Most of the hosts in that place are warriors. There are also many monsters, so the host's life will be very difficult. The system will also suffer. It's not as comfortable as living in a peaceful time. But..."

Qiao Linxi already understood the nature of the system. If she stopped talking after she finished speaking, it meant something was wrong. But if she stopped talking halfway, it meant she was trying to arouse other people's curiosity.

It's a pity that Qiao Linxi was too calm and didn't care or curious about what the second half of the system's words meant.

Seeing that Qiao Linxi didn't ask, the system chuckled and said, "Master Host, we have stayed in Lanqing City long enough. Can we continue to move forward?"

"Let's talk about it after the New Year."

The shops here in Lanqing City have not yet been put on track, and Qiao Linxi plans to train those people.

The system hasn't released anything new recently, and what you get by signing in are just some daily necessities, such as rice, and gratitude points.

There are several big items in the system now, one is the initial lunch box that automatically produces cooked food, a lunch box that can process food, a rice mill and a loom.

These things are all upgradeable.

Some of the goods in the shops that were opened now were bought by Qiao Linxi from the system, some were bought by her from the Li family’s partners, and most were new partners she had found.

But the quality of those products was the same as in her system, which made Qiao Linxi a little confused. Let's not talk about other things, why were the products of the partners who had cooperated with the Li family before so good? However, there were quality problems when continuing to cooperate with the Li family.

This in the end is why?

"What's so unclear about this?"

The soft and cute voice of the system sounded in Qiao Linxi's mind again.

"Since the host has activated the business system, all businesses belonging to the host will be blessed by the business system. Just like the food in the second branch, didn't the host find that the food cooked by Liu Yongkang and his wife tastes good?"

There is such an operation? Qiao Linxi was stunned. Does this mean that as long as she wants, any business can be prosperous?

"Yeah, that's it."

Qiao Linxi couldn't help but sigh, what an awesome system.

"That's right, this system is super invincible and super cute in the entire system world..."

……

In a blink of an eye, it is already the twentieth day of the twelfth lunar month, and the festive atmosphere is getting stronger and stronger.

Although the snow is still falling, it cannot stop the enthusiasm of the people of Lanqing City to buy New Year's goods.

But compared to the joyous streets, the atmosphere in Li’s mansion was very solemn.

Mrs. Li looked at the person kneeling below with a gloomy face.

"Mrs. Li, it's all written on the black paper. Are you planning to default on your debt?"

A ruthless-looking man next to him held a note: "Second Young Master Li has mortgaged your Li Mansion to our casino. Today you either pay back the money or move out."

"Madam, you can't ignore Tingyan. Although he is not your biological son, he still calls you mother."

The person who was speaking was Aunt Wang, and Li Tingyan was her son.

"Mother?" Madam Li sneered, "As a mother, I never taught him to gamble in the gambling house."

Li Tingyan crawled a few steps toward Madam Li on his knees, crying bitterly, "Mother, son, I never went to a gambling house before, and I went there this time to help you. Our shop has been squeezed out by Qiao Ji's and we have no place to live. I also wanted to go to the gambling house to win more money, and then use the money to bring down Qiao Ji. My son's starting point is good, you can't just ignore me."

Li Tingyan knelt forward, grabbed Madam Li's skirt and begged: "Mother, you must save your son. If you don't save your son, they will chop off his hands."

Li Tingyan had indeed never been to a gambling house before. This time he went to the gambling house and mortgaged the Li Mansion because he was bewitched by others.

But when he realized it, it was too late.

"You caused the trouble, deal with it yourself."

Madam Li didn't want to take care of a bastard at all. She was busy with the store and had no time to care about the life and death of a bastard.

"Alas, Mr. Li, it seems that Madam Li does not want to pay the money for you. Then we have no choice but to cut off your hands as written in the contract."

The debt collector at the gambling house smiled at Li Tingyan, then winked at his men. The burly thugs stepped forward and held Li Tingyan down, pretending to chop off his hands.

"Mother, aunt, aunt, save me."

Li Tingyan screamed in fear and struggled desperately, but how could a weak man like him be a match for a few thugs?

No matter how he struggled, it was of no avail.

"lady……"

Aunt Wang also knelt down and said with tears in her eyes: "Now the whereabouts of the eldest son are unknown. If the second son is ruined, our Li family will be completely finished."
