Chapter 16 Preparing to Go into the Mountains
After selecting his items, Li Qin left the storage area for old things, carrying two full boxes.
At the entrance of the warehouse where old items are stored, there is a somewhat worn-out desk.
An ordinary-looking middle-aged man was hunched over a table, seemingly taking notes.
Li Qin walked to the table and gently placed the two boxes on it;
"Comrade, these are some items I've selected. Could you please help me compile a list?"
Upon hearing Li Qin's voice, the man who was lying on the table immediately raised his head.
It was only then that Li Qin realized that the man was not middle-aged, but a young man.
Judging from his appearance, he looks to be around twenty-four or twenty-five years old.
However, the clothing of this era was rather unattractive, and the man had been keeping his head down the whole time, which is why Li Qin misjudged him.
The young man first glanced at Li Qin, then looked away at the two boxes on the table that Li Qin had opened.
"These are all you picked?"
A hint of surprise flashed across the man's face.
There are quite a few people who come to the recycling station to pick out things, and the man, as the statistician, has personally counted many people.
However, those people mostly chose items that were in good condition or looked quite old, perhaps antiques.
Unlike Li Qin, who selects items that are all somewhat damaged and clearly have nothing to do with antiques.
Li Qin looked at the man with some confusion.
"Is there something wrong with the ones I picked?"
"Of course, there's no problem."
The man immediately shook his head, then smiled at Li Qin with a hint of appreciation.
As the statistician at the recycling station, the man naturally had a good understanding of the old items there.
Those hoping to find antiques here, while not entirely impossible, have a very small chance.
It's important to know that everything sent to a recycling center undergoes multiple checks and screenings.
If there are any antiques or valuable items among them, they will be kept directly and will not be placed among the old items.
Of course, everyone makes mistakes, so it cannot be said that there are no antiques among the old items.
But they are extremely rare.
Finding a hidden antique among a pile of old things requires not only a keen eye but also a lot of luck.
Unfortunately, many people still harbor wishful thinking, always hoping for a windfall.
It is precisely because the man has seen so many people like this that he is surprised to suddenly meet a "reliable" person.
Although Li Qin noticed that the man's attitude seemed a bit strange, he didn't think much of it because he didn't sense any malice.
The man quickly finished tallying up the items that Li Qin had selected;
"Two old boxes, three sets of bowls, chopsticks, and spoons, eight plates, two sets of pots, pans, and ladles..."
After the statistics were completed, the man gave Li Qin a certificate.
"Take this certificate to pay the money. After the finance department receives the money, they will stamp the certificate. Then you can come back to me to pick up these things."
Perhaps because he found Li Qin pleasing to the eye, or perhaps because Li Qin was young, the man explained to Li Qin in detail what to do next.
With the man's guidance, Li Qin's face immediately showed a look of understanding.
He then immediately spoke to the man;
"Thank you, comrade! I'll go pay right now."
Knowing the specific procedures, Li Qin handled the subsequent tasks such as paying money and getting stamps quite smoothly.
In just a few minutes, he returned to the statistician.
"Comrade, look, this is a stamped certificate."
Li Qin proactively handed the stamped certificate to the young statistician.
Although the man had a fairly good impression of Li Qin, he did not become careless because of it.
He took the certificate and carefully checked the stamp and signature on it.
After confirming that there were no problems, the certificate was handed back to Li Qin.
"The proof is valid. You can now take the proof and these two boxes of things and go home."
Although the recycling station mainly deals in old items and no receipt is required for purchase, the station will still issue a certificate.
It indicates the legitimacy of something.
Li Qin knew this too, so he immediately took the certificate, carefully folded it, and put it in his pocket.
However, he actually stored it in his storage ring.
With this proof, when he reveals these things in the courtyard house later, no one will suspect him.
Li Qin nodded to the man, then picked up a box in each hand and slowly walked out of the recycling station.
As Li Qin passed the gate, he stopped to greet the gatekeeper and offered him another cigarette.
The gatekeeper didn't stand on ceremony with Li Qin. After accepting the cigarettes, he didn't say much, just nodded.
Li Qin didn't mind, turned around, picked up his suitcase, and left.
He greeted the gatekeeper first because of the man's status.
Li Qin held these soldiers who risked their lives to defend their country in the highest esteem.
Especially the soldiers of this period, they were truly dedicated to the people.
Carrying two suitcases, Li Qin walked a long distance before finally entering a small alley.
After confirming that no one was around, Li Qin put the two boxes into his ring.
After fusing with the divine essence and inheriting the power of the wizard, Li Qin's strength had increased considerably, but he never thought of carrying the two boxes all the way back to the courtyard house.
To be more precise, he not only does not plan to return to the courtyard house, but also intends to leave Beijing.
Next, he will build a space for planting and breeding, and once it is successfully built, he will make use of it.
Needless to say, the planting space is used to grow grains and vegetables.
The seed problem is relatively easy to solve.
But the breeding space is a different story;
According to Li Qin's plan, he intends to raise many kinds of animals in the breeding space.
Chickens, ducks, fish, geese, cattle, sheep, pigs, dogs, birds and beasts...
Li Qin could only obtain poultry chicks through black market transactions, but he had to find ways to capture wild birds and beasts himself.
Therefore, Li Qin had no choice but to go into the mountains.
This time, Li Qin planned to go and scout ahead first.
Once the breeding space is completed, he can teleport directly into the mountains using Phantom Shift.
According to Li Qin, the main mountain ranges near Beijing include the Yanshan Mountains, the Jundu Mountains, and the Baihua Mountains.
The Yanshan Mountains are the main mountain range in the FS area. Its main peak, Donghouding, is 2292.6 meters above sea level and is the second highest peak in Beijing. It is located in the Yanshan Mountains.
The Yanshan Mountains also include Wuling Mountain, Jiushanding Mountain, Baxianzhuozi Mountain, and Dushan Mountain;
These mountains, ranging in altitude from 600 to 1500 meters, form an important natural barrier in the northern and northeastern parts of Beijing.
The Yanshan Mountains are not only beautiful in their natural scenery, but also a strategic location that has made them a battleground for military strategists throughout history.
It is precisely because of this that there are quite a few troops stationed near the Yanshan Mountains.
Jundu Mountain is also one of the major mountains in Beijing, known for its devil's trails and burial grounds.
Baihua Mountain is located in Shijiaying Township, FS District, with an altitude of 1991 meters. It is one of the famous mountains in western Beijing.
Baihua Mountain is not only beautiful in its natural scenery and rich in biodiversity, but also has abundant natural resources.
