Rebirth of Siheyuan: Starting from escaping famine in 42

The next afternoon.

Li Qingfeng looked at the time. It was past 3 o'clock. There were basically no people coming at this time. So he walked up to the master and said, "Master, I'll be back soon."

Quanfu knew what the land was going to buy, so he said softly: "Qingfeng! Go home directly after you finish shopping! No one will come tonight, I will wait for you at home tomorrow."

"I understand, Master." Li Qingfeng said and left the restaurant.

When we arrived at the dry goods store, the shopkeeper asked, "What would you like to order, sir?"

Li Qingfeng asked: "Boss, do you have longan and red dates here?"

When the shopkeeper heard that he wanted these two things, he immediately understood and said with a smile: "Yes, how many do you want? Are you planning to become my disciple? Or?"

Li Qingfeng smiled and said, "I will become your disciple tomorrow."

"Please wait a moment." After the shopkeeper knew that he wanted to become a disciple, he told the waiter next to him to get something.

Li Qingfeng nodded and waited at the counter.

After a while, the waiter brought two packages, put them on the counter, and stood aside waiting.

Li Qingfeng asked about the price and bought them all.

The shopkeeper saw that he had bought a lot and kindly reminded him, "Young man, you bought too much. You won't need so much as a gift for your apprenticeship."

"It's okay, I'll take it home and eat it myself." Li Qingfeng nodded to the shopkeeper, took the longan and red dates and left.

When he arrived at the street, Li Qingfeng felt that it was still early, so instead of going home directly, he went to the vegetable market to take a look.

Li Qingfeng arrived at the entrance of the vegetable market and listened to the faint shouting of sellers inside. At this time, most of the vegetable vendors had left, leaving only those who lived close to home and whose products were difficult to sell.

When I walked in, it was scattered and seemed very empty.

Li Qingfeng noticed that there was a stall selling rabbits. They must be wild rabbits, after all, no one was raising domestic rabbits yet.

He walked over to the stall and used his mental power to look at the rabbits in the cage. There were two males and two females.

Li Qingfeng looked at the stall owner and asked, "Uncle, how much are the rabbits?"

The stall owner looked up and said, "I'm not selling it. Bring me something in exchange."

Li Qingfeng felt a little strange, but he didn't think much about it, and asked, "What can I use to exchange for a rabbit? How do I exchange it?"

The stall owner vaguely said, "Exchange it for a hen, or eggs."

When Li Qingfeng heard about exchanging hens, he was puzzled. The stall owner must be from a nearby village, so how could he still be short of hens? So he took out a cigarette and handed it to him. After lighting a cigarette himself, he asked, "Uncle, don't you have hens in your village? Why do you bring them to the city to exchange?"

The stall owner took the cigarette, said "thank you", lit it, and looked around. Seeing that no one was paying attention to this side, he explained the reason: "My dear brother, my family used to have hens, but they couldn't stand the Japanese coming to raid from time to time! Now no one in the village dares to raise hens."

After hearing this, Li Qingfeng knew what was going on. He had often seen such scenes in anti-Japanese dramas, and he didn't know what to say when he encountered such a thing in real life. He just comforted him and said, "Uncle, the little devil won't grow old. It will be fine in the future."

The stall owner sighed "Alas!" and continued smoking without saying anything.

Li Qingfeng asked again: "Uncle, if you change the hen, you won't be afraid that the Japanese will take the hen away from you when they come to raid!"

The stall owner said, "It's okay. I found a good place in the mountains. It's okay to raise hens. I don't have to worry about them being eaten by wild animals in the mountains."

After hearing what the stall owner said, Li Qingfeng did not ask any more questions, and said with a smile: "Uncle, how do you want to exchange it? My home is nearby. If I feel that I can exchange it, I will go home and get the hen."

After hearing this, the stall owner smiled and said, "Okay, I'll tell you about it and see if it's suitable."

"Four rabbits for three hens, or two hens for 3 eggs."

After hearing this, Li Qingfeng felt that it was quite suitable and was roughly the same as the market price, so he said to the stall owner: "Okay, uncle, let's go with the first method!"

"Uncle, please wait at the entrance of the vegetable market. I'll go home and get you a hen."

The stall owner said happily, "Okay, little brother, I'll wait for you at the entrance of the vegetable market." After that, he picked up the cage containing the rabbit and walked to the entrance of the vegetable market, found a corner and squatted down to wait.

After Li Qingfeng left the vegetable market, he came to a dead end. He put the two bags of apprenticeship gifts he had bought into the space. Then he caught three hens with his mind and put them in cloth bags. After his consciousness left the space, Li Qingfeng walked towards the vegetable market.

When I returned to the market, I saw the rabbit seller squatting in the corner. When I approached him, the stall owner noticed him and said with a smile, "Uncle, are you asleep?"

The stall owner was so happy that he could make a successful deal. He said with a smile, "Young man, I didn't sleep well last night, so I took a nap."

Li Qingfeng was also concerned and said softly, "Uncle, let's trade first! Let me show you the condition of the hens first." After that, he handed the cloth bag to the stall owner.

The stall owner took the bag with a smile, looked inside, and saw three healthy hens with bright feathers. They were well fed. He looked at them for a while before saying, "Little brother, the number is right, and they are healthy too."

Li Qingfeng smiled and thought, how can the hens raised in the space be unhealthy? Without even looking at what they were fed, he picked up the rabbit cage and said, "Okay, uncle, the deal is done, let's go!"

After saying that, Li Qingfeng took two steps forward, turned around and asked, "Uncle, if you catch prey, don't come to the market, just go to my house directly."

"The address is: No. 93, Nanluoguxiang, Dongzhimen. Just go there. There will be people at home during lunch time. There will be people in the morning and evening."

After hearing this, the stall owner smiled and said, "I see, little brother. My last name is Qin, and my name is Qin Dezhu. You can just call me Uncle Qin."

"Okay, Uncle Qin, just don't forget it." After Li Qingfeng finished speaking, he walked straight home. When there was no one on the road, he put the rabbit into the space and fed it some water from the Cicada Spirit Spring with his mind. The rabbit became lively again. He fed it some corn kernels and then left the space.

When he was almost home, seeing that there was no one in the alley, Li Qingfeng took out the six items for the apprenticeship gift, and then took out a male rabbit. He would take this rabbit to his master's house tomorrow and let his master show off his cooking skills.

After arriving home, I didn't know what my younger brother was doing in his room. I didn't ask him, but he put the apprenticeship gift and the rabbit in the kitchen and started cooking dinner.

As soon as the meal was ready, Li Qingshan's voice came from behind: "Brother, when did you come back?"

Li Qingfeng said unhappily, "I've been back for a long time, go wash your hands and eat."

"Yeah!" Li Qingshan responded and went to the yard to wash up.
