The Wizard's Journey Begins in a Courtyard House

Chapter 38 The Plan to Get the Job Done

Through several hours of work, Li Qin not only increased the scale of the tea trees transplanted into the space tenfold.

They even tried making tea once.

Of course, Li Qin accomplished this through the curse of life.

Otherwise, he might not even be able to do the first step of tea making well.

One hundred tea trees can only produce about three pounds of tea leaves.

Although it may not seem like much, it is actually quite a lot.

You should know that in this era, tea was sold by weight.

Moreover, under normal circumstances, a normal person will not consume more than one ounce of tea per day, and that is for people who are particular about tea.

Based on this calculation, three catties of tea leaves should last for at least a month.

If the tea is finished, Li Qin can use the magic spell to make new tea.

So after producing the first batch of tea, Li Qin did not continue doing so, but instead chose to return to his courtyard to test the quality of the tea.

"This tastes really good!"

Li Qin took a sip of the brewed tea and immediately showed a look of enjoyment on his face.

I don't know if it's because the tea trees are uncontaminated or because of the magical tea-making process, but every step is done almost perfectly.

Therefore, the tea made from it not only has a very beautiful color, but also an extremely fragrant and mellow taste.

It's much better than the tea Li Qin used to drink.

"Perhaps I should produce more tea."

Li Qin glanced at the teacup in his hand, a strange light flashing in his eyes.

If he wanted to get things done, he needed to go through certain channels, and tea, being a scarce commodity, was the best way to open those channels.

One reason is that tea is scarce and considered a high-end product.

Secondly, Li Qin's tea is of superior quality, far superior to those on the market, and those who know their stuff will understand its value.

Li Qin originally planned to attract attention by bringing prey from the mountains, thereby securing a job.

However, this still presents some potential risks.

After all, he had never revealed his hunting skills before.

Providing a small amount of wild game is fine, but if it becomes too prominent, it will still arouse suspicion from those with ulterior motives.

But tea is different.

Tea is a valuable commodity, especially high-quality tea. Obtaining it requires not only financial resources but also connections.

If Li Qin uses this as a stepping stone, although it will still arouse some suspicion, as long as it is handled properly, he can create a friend out of thin air.

In that case, Li Qin will not only get a job, but he will also not be looked down upon.

The more Li Qin thought about it, the better he felt this method was.

Thinking of this, Li Qin didn't bother to rest and went to the tea garden again with his teacup.

For the next two hours, Li Qin continuously used growth spells on the tea garden, and then used life spells to make tea.

One round, two rounds...

He finally stopped after producing more than 20 jin of tea.

"Alright, that's enough for today."

Li Qin first stored all the processed tea leaves in the courtyard, and then began to unleash the magic of life on the kitchen once again.

It was getting dark outside, and it would be night soon.

He spent the whole afternoon using magic to make tea, which also took some of his energy.

I was starting to feel hungry.

"I not only eat a lot at every meal now, but I also get hungry very quickly. It seems like I should prepare some portable food and store it in my storage space just in case."

At this moment, Li Qin already had a slight guess about his ability to eat.

Therefore, he began to prepare in advance in a targeted manner.

Since the space inside the storage ring is static, there's no need to worry about the food stored inside spoiling.

Thinking of this, Li Qin once again cast the Life Spell towards the kitchen.

Li Qin then began to rest in the courtyard.

"Although being alone feels good, I can't help but feel a little lonely and isolated. Maybe I should get some pets or something."

Li Qin suddenly touched his chin.

Actually, the best way to get rid of loneliness is to interact and communicate with people.

However, Li Qin had too many secrets and was unable to truly open up to people.

So, as a last resort, I thought of keeping pets.

In this day and age, keeping a pet is a very luxurious thing.

Because life is very difficult for everyone.

Where would they find the extra energy and food to feed their pets?

But this is precisely what Li Qin has in abundance.

"You can find anything on the black market, so it's not impossible to come across someone selling pet puppies. I might try looking for one tonight."

Tonight, Li Qin will still be going to the black market to sell wild boar meat and other things; he'll take a look around while he's there.

If you come across someone selling pet puppies, buy them and raise them.

However, these were all secondary matters; Li Qin's main target tonight was still the livestock.

Whether it's pigs, cattle, sheep, or anything else, Li Qin will take them down as soon as he encounters them.

With seeds, a large herd of livestock can be quickly bred in the planting space.

While Li Qin was deep in thought, the kitchen had already prepared the food he needed, and the food automatically flew to the dining table.

Upon seeing this, Li Qin immediately put aside what was on his mind and went straight to the dining table to start eating.

Since it was dinner, the food was kept simple.

It consists of two main dishes: braised wild rabbit and stir-fried pheasant, plus a few vegetables.

As for the staple food, it was two large steamed buns.

This is made from the wheat flour that Li Qin just processed today. It is not only very delicate, but also has a faint sweet taste.

After eating and drinking his fill, Li Qin stored a lot of food in his storage ring;

Steamed buns, rice, dumplings filled with wild boar meat, braised pork, stewed pork belly...

It includes not only staple foods but also meat dishes, vegetables, and soup.

In short, it's very comprehensive.

The key point is that the quantity is also very large.

If it's mealtime and Li Qin can't enter the planting space to eat, then the food in the ring can come in handy.

After finishing his meal, Li Qin began to stroll leisurely around the space again.

Behind him followed a group of half-grown poultry chicks.

Anyone who has raised poultry knows that poultry love to follow people around.

The young birds in the space were fed by Li Qin, so they also liked to follow him.

However, strictly speaking, these little creatures can no longer be called cubs.

Although only half a day had passed, because Li Qin fed these poultry magical feed, they grew in the equivalent of seven or eight days normally.

Compared to this morning, these young birds have grown quite a bit larger.

According to Li Qin's estimate, these poultry should be laying eggs and breeding the next generation within ten days at most.

Once a new round of breeding begins, Li Qin will have no shortage of poultry.

Just thinking about roast duck and braised goose in an iron pot...

Li Qin's mouth was starting to water again.

"Just bear with it for now. These are seeds, so I can't eat them. Anyway, I have other wild game that will last me for a while."

Li Qin overcame his impulse with his willpower and then continued to wander around the space.
