After eating and extinguishing the bonfire, the two lay down on the mats and fell asleep.

But this night, Li Guanqi did not sleep peacefully.

Because he was worried that bad guys would come and attack him in the middle of the night, Li Guanqi was always vigilant. Even if he didn't hear anything, he would often wake up half asleep and look out the window to look suspiciously at something.

During this period, Ji Ye was woken up many times because of this, but he didn't feel annoyed at all. He just felt that his teammates would lose their sanity sooner or later if this continued, so after Li Guanqi woke up for the sixth time, he directly picked up the guy and used a physics

Hypnosis, once and for all.

Li Guanqi: “…………”

Thank you so much!

A dreamless night came to the darkness before dawn the next day. Even though his head was dizzy and his neck hurt, Li Guanqi still relied on his instinct to study early every day when he was in school and opened his eyes on time at four o'clock in the morning.

"Damn it, you're murdering your teammates!"

Li Guanqi started screaming as soon as he woke up. He was about 1.7 meters tall and jumped on a mat less than 10 centimeters tall, showing the aura of being three meters tall.

"Wouldn't your conscience hurt if you were so cruel?!"

"So I reluctantly took the pain."

Ji Ye sucked the noodles indifferently and remained unmoved. Even when Li Guanqi was jumping on the mattress, he filled another bowl of noodles and put it aside, saying: "Wash up and eat."

"I'll eat you up...tsk."

Li Guanqi did not express any objection. In view of the dark circles on Ji Ye's face and because eating could keep her mouth shut, she went to wash up quietly and then came back to eat quietly.

The sky gradually got brighter. After packing their things, the two began to make plans for today's trip.

The first thing that needs to be taken into account is the funds.

After less than a day passed, 152 gold coins had been consumed, and only 137 were left.

The balance is still very optimistic for the time being, but considering that the so-called National People's Grain Storage Plan and border defenses are two bottomless gold sales caves, the two people looked at the gold coins with eyes full of bitterness and hatred.

Making money is an urgent matter.

Li Guanqi knew that traveling together would not improve efficiency, so he suggested splitting up the operations.

The division of labor between the two is very clear.

"I'm responsible for making the money, and you're responsible for spending it."

Li Guanqi picked up fifteen gold coins and put them on his body, then pushed the rest of the gold coins to Ji Ye, "You take the rest."

"The reason?" Ji Ye was surprised by Li Guanqi's attitude of treating money like dirt, but he did not hesitate when he took the money, "Aren't you afraid that someone will take it away if you put it on me?"

"I'm afraid, but among the two of us, you are the strongest. Money is more reassuring to put on you than on me." Li Guanqi looked up at Ji Ye and said seriously: "Money is not something that is afraid of thieves.

I'm afraid the thief will miss you, so I advise you to spend it all in one go today and don't leave anything behind."

Ji Ye: "…………"

The speech made by such a rich man is very heart-pounding to hear.

Ji Ye was a little hesitant: "Do you want to leave some for you?"

Li Guanqi said resolutely: "No, no need, you have spent it all."

Ji Ye smiled happily: "Okay, I'll listen to you."

So, after deciding on the plan, the two hit it off and parted ways.

On the other hand, Ji Ye took the money and went to the alley yesterday to meet the robbers who were temporarily good. After purchasing supplies in the morning, he planned to take them to the border to study the terrain in the afternoon to see how to dig trenches.

On the other hand, Li Guanqi took a map and walked to the most prosperous commercial street in the Great Wall District, located on the seaside of Frevans, to study how to get more money.

Although casinos can make money quickly, the method of taking money from the mouths of gambling dogs is not particularly safe, so after careful consideration, Li Guanqi decided to change to a safer source of money.

For example, it's the money pockets of noble men.

Li Guanqi's action efficiency has always been very high. It can be said that he will start taking action whenever he thinks of it.

But the specific method of deceiving... ah no, taking it, still needs to be discussed, so before Li Guanqi actually takes action, he plans to understand the preferences and preferences of noble gentlemen for luxury goods, and then prescribe the right medicine.

Because the commercial street is a long way from Li Guanqi's residence, by the time Li Guanqi arrived, it was almost noon.

Although the commercial street was still bustling at this time, this speed made Li Guanqi once again consider transportation tools. At least when the epidemic came, her two unsatisfactory legs alone would not be able to deliver the supplies within one day.

All over the country.

Electric cars are out of the question...it seems like I have to find time to buy a bicycle.

With this in mind, Li Guanqi followed the flow of people and walked into the business district.

There was a buzz of people, and even if it was close to noon, the commercial street was still very lively at this time.

And unlike the market in Xiacheng District, the environment in the business district is obviously more tidy and elegant.

The streets are white and wide, and even the pavement is no longer covered with high and low cobblestones, but with smoother white stone bricks.

The gaps fit very well. At least when Li Guanqi walked on it, she even thought she was stepping on a road paved with cement.

There are no traces of small traders and hawkers here, instead there are rows of clean and beautiful high-end shops.

From time to time, you can see well-dressed people walking back and forth on the street, and among them there are many noble ladies, noble ladies and noble gentlemen, and some even bring servants.

Li Guanqi: "..."

Maybe, I should do something big.

Li Guanqi looked at the scene in front of him and felt that he had seriously underestimated the wealth of the noble men here.

At least, before they took out their money bag, which was made of gold and was only the size of a palm, and could only hold seven gold coins at most, she had never thought about these noble people.

The outfit can be so gorgeous and yet so useless at the same time.

Great! These noble gentlemen are richer than I imagined!

Li Guanqi realized that his plan needed to make some new adjustments.

At least before stealing the wool from those lambs, she could first look for something that was cheap to her, but very attractive to the nobles, to make a sufficiently equal transaction, rather than just raking it all up.

On the blacklist of nobles.

——In the best case scenario, there may be some idiot noble who will even let him harvest wool until the epidemic breaks out, thereby solving their shortage of funds problem.

This is not something that cannot be successful.

Li Guanqi walked into a store, pretending to admire the goods on it, while constantly looking at the wealthy people coming and going.

Until she found a target she could choose - a noble man whose worth was unknown, but would definitely not be less than five hundred gold coins.

Li Guanqi doesn't know much about the luxury goods of the nobles, but when all the nobles just choose to use gold to inlay dark patterns on their clothes in a low-key manner, a guy who inlays clothes with gold can't be said to be like a man in the dark.

Like the sun, it is extremely conspicuous.

An upstart?

God, there's nothing like it... Oh, I mean, he looks so... rich!

Li Guanqi blinked, showed a sweet smile, and then spoke a gorgeous translation accent and approached the clerk on the side.

"Oh, hello, beautiful lady, there is a little thing I hope to ask you. For example, the gentlemen who are selecting products... Oh, forgive me for being reckless, considering that I was just two days ago.

It’s my first time coming to this country, so…”
