Back to the Red Age

Chapter 110: Upgrade again, please join me as a turtle
"Qin Ming, you look so young, what does it have to do with Director Li?"

The aunt is a talkative, and she inquired about Qin Ming's background as soon as she opened her mouth. Qin Ming smiled and said nothing, "Hey, look at my brain, you don't know me yet. My surname is Yang, and I live in the front yard. , just call me Aunt Yang."

"Oh, that's it, I got it." Qin Ming said perfunctorily, but he had already arrived at the long and narrow front yard. Stone tables and benches were placed in the front yard, and many people even planted vegetables in front of their doors.

"This young man really doesn't know any manners," Aunt Yang muttered, Qin Ming just pretended not to hear, this woman is not a very particular person, why should he respect her?

"Xiao Qin, you are really 17 years old. The house you live in is the principal house. Why did you give it to you for no reason?"

Aunt Yang continued to inquire without giving up, but this time Qin Ming simply ignored her.

After passing through the hanging flower door and arriving at the middle courtyard, Director Li was standing in the courtyard. There were many women and children around her, "Xiao Qin, come here."

Seeing Qin Ming, Director Li smiled and waved to him, "Let me introduce you all, this is Qin Ming who has just moved to the compound. He will be your neighbor from now on. Xiao Qin, there are three stewards in the compound. , responsible for mediating neighborhood conflicts. If you have any questions, you can contact them, but they are all at work now. These are the first aunt, the second aunt, and the third aunt..."

Director Li briefly introduced Qin Ming, and then greeted Qin Ming to the main room.

"This is your house, go in and take a look first."

Director Li smiled and took out the key. When he saw the broken lock on the door, his expression changed, "Who did it?"

Everyone in the courtyard looked surprised.

"Director Li, this house has been locked before. This...how could this happen?"

When the three stewards were away, the three aunts became the ones in charge. However, when they saw the fallen lock on the door, the three aunts looked confused, "Why did the lock fall off?
"Is the lock broken?"

"How could a good lock break? But the lock is crooked like this. It must have been broken by something, right?" Qin Ming's reasonable question immediately attracted everyone's attention.

"It's really like this. It's so good. Why are you breaking the lock?"

"Is there a thief in our courtyard?"

"No, then I have to go home and take a look. I can't let anyone take away the money I paid for the medicine." Aunt Yi is in poor health and can't live without medicine. There is a strong smell of traditional Chinese medicine in the house all year round. .

Seeing Aunt Yi leave, several other people also left one after another.

Soon, people were walking around the compound. When Li Xiu saw the situation, she became very angry. She also wanted to take down the house. How could she do anything in this situation?
"Okay, everyone, check to see if your belongings are missing, and then come to me to register. Xiao Qin, let's go see the house first."

The sizes of the houses in the courtyard are not evenly distributed. The small houses here are only about ten square meters, but the large ones have reached 120 square meters.

Qin Ming was assigned to the 120-square-meter main house. There was a [-]-square-meter room at the entrance, and there were also two [-]-square-meter wing rooms on the left and right sides. The owner who originally lived in the house must have liked cooking. Yes, he also separated a ten-square-meter kitchen and built a stove in it.

The furniture in the room is also very simple, a tattered table, two chairs with missing corners, and a bed that is barely intact. Fortunately, there is a fire kang in another room. Although the head of the kang is a bit dark, it is not Affect.

"Xiao Qin, how is this house?" Director Li is very satisfied. The house has only been renovated a few years ago and it looks very new. The lighting conditions in the main house are also very good. Although it has only one room, This house actually has three rooms, and it also has its own kitchen, which is something you can't find anywhere else.

"Thank you, Director Li. I like this house very much." Qin Ming was not an excuse. One room turned into three rooms. Anyone would be happy if it happened to him.

"That's it. These are the only things that are registered in our street office. You have to buy other needed things yourself." After saying a few more words, Director Li went out and asked for the lost items. Explore things first.

"Director Li, do you think it's strange? I haven't lost anything in my house."

"I didn't lose anything at home."

……

"The good lock is broken. It seems that the patrol team needs to come over for this matter." Director Li was also puzzled, but although she was the director of the subdistrict office, she was not a professional investigator. Even if she planned to notify The street patrol team came to check.

Since Qin Ming entered the yard, Li Xiu hid in the house.

She didn't understand how Qin Ming came to live in Hao Duan Duan, but she knew clearly the previous grudge between her and Qin Ming, and then she thought about letting her nephew break down the door. Fortunately, no one saw it just now, otherwise now She couldn't avoid it.

The patrol team came over quickly. They first inspected the scene, and then investigated the people in the courtyard. Soon, all the people outside were checked, and only Qin Ming's neighbor was left. "There are people living in this house." Who is the person?"

"This house originally belonged to Li Jiangang. He committed a crime and was imprisoned. He left the three boys behind. He had no choice but to ask their aunt Li Xiu to come over and help take care of it. Speaking of which, the four aunts and nephews were still there before. Are you trying to rob a house in the courtyard? Why is there no one around now?" The aunt in the courtyard felt very strange.

Upon hearing this, the patrol team immediately realized that this was a very important situation, and immediately knocked on the door and asked Li Xiu to come out and cooperate with the investigation.

Seeing that he couldn't hide, Li Xiu called his two nephews over, taught them how to speak, and then opened the door, "Comrade, what can I do for you?"

"Li Xiu, what were you doing just now?" the patrolman asked directly.

"I just had an argument with some aunts in the hospital, and then I felt uncomfortable, so I went back to my room and lay down." Li Xiu touched her belly, "I didn't expect that I could be pregnant with two babies at once. Boy, this is too tiring."

Qin Ming's eyes have been on Li Xiu since she appeared. Based on his understanding of Li Xiu in his previous life, he knew that this woman had just lied.

Everyone is here, what does Li Xiu have to feel guilty about, unless the one who broke down his door was this woman.

The two members of the patrol team looked embarrassed, "Director Li, I'm afraid this matter is a bit difficult to handle. Anyway, no one has lost anything, so let's forget it."

The patrol team has to walk a lot every day and deal with various emergencies. They really don't have the energy to deal with things as big as sesame seeds and mung beans that have no obvious owner.

"Xiao Qin, it's difficult to find someone to do something like this. You just moved into this compound, why don't you go get a new lock." If there is a thief, the street office will definitely notify the police station to vigorously Investigation, but there is no property damage now, so this matter is not suitable for publicity.

There was a trace of pride on Li Xiu's face. Although she recovered quickly, Qin Ming kept looking at her and naturally did not miss Li Xiu's slight expression. If it were someone else, Qin Ming would not have to be serious, but if that person was Li Xiu , Qin Mingke didn't regard her as a human being. After all, this woman was a devil who would use any means to achieve her goals.

"Director Li, I have a way to make them stand up on their own."

"Really? If there is such a way, let's try it." Director Li is not confident in Qin Ming, but is curious about what kind of ability the young man in front of him has to sort out this confusing matter. .

Qin Ming took out two pieces of toffee from his pocket and looked at the three children of the Li family. "Children, tell your uncle what you just used to break the lock. Please eat some candies." The two big white rabbits lay quietly. In the palm of Qin Ming's hand, the eyes of the three children of the Li family were all widened. "Uncle, are you telling the truth? Are you really giving us this toffee?"

Thanks to Li Jiangang, the chef, the three children of the Li family have grown fat and white, but they are just a little fatter and meatier. They cannot eat precious things like White Rabbit toffee once a year. Now they are looking at White Rabbit. , I was immediately greedy.

"That's natural. You are all children. It doesn't matter if you make mistakes. As long as you know how to correct them, this toffee will be yours."

The three children looked at me, and I looked at you, and peeked at Li Xiu from time to time, but no one admitted that they broke the lock. Li Xiu breathed a sigh of relief, but the next second, a crisp sound rang out.

"Uncle, I know." The third girl is the youngest, and the one who can't resist the temptation of toffee the most. Her laughter is everywhere, "Third girl, what do you know as a child? Don't talk nonsense."

"Sister-in-law, I'm not talking nonsense. Sanya really saw it. It was the eldest brother who took the bricks and smashed them with the second brother."

"San Ya, shut up!" Li Xiu and his two nephews yelled in unison, but San Ya's eyes only looked at Qin Ming, "Uncle, I have told you who broke the lock. Can you put the candy in it?" Did you give it to me?”

"Of course. Sanya is a good and honest child. In this way, if you can get your two brothers to admit their mistakes, I can give you two more toffee."

"Big brother, second brother, hurry up, there is candy!" Sanya quickly urged her two brothers.

"Uncle, we broke the lock."

"My sister-in-law told me to break the door lock with my brother, and then we can live in secretly." In front of Toffee, Li Xiu's two good nephews sold her directly without any hesitation.

"Good children, this candy is yours." Qin Ming gave a few toffee to the three children and asked them to play. The children ran away immediately. Li Xiu was so angry that she said, "Li Director, Qin Ming deliberately used sweets to coax my nieces and nephews..."

"That's enough Li Xiu, the Li family's children are young. Since you are their relative, our neighborhood office accepted you, but if you plan to teach your children this way, you can go back now."

"I...Director Li, you are wronged..." Li Xiu shed tears of grievance, but Director Li would not accept her, "Whether it is wronged or not, please come back to the subdistrict office with us to talk about it!"

Li Xiu was taken away like this, along with Li Jiangang's three children.

Because of this incident, people in the courtyard were a little shy about Qin Ming, the new neighbor. Fortunately, Qin Ming didn't care. He said hello to Aunt Yang, and then went out to buy things.

There was nothing in the house, but Qin Ming didn't plan to buy much. He went to buy a new lock and a broom, then he took out the bedding and covers from the system space and tied them to his bicycle before returning to the compound.

Seeing that Qin Ming bought new sheets and bedding, the aunts gathered around to take a look and then left.

Qin Ming cleaned the room, spread the sheets and quilts on the kang, and left the compound.

In Luogu Lane, Zhang Ming, who was dressed in plain clothes, met Qin Ming. The two met for a short time, and then Qin Ming left to find Old Man Sun.

After staying at Old Man Sun's house for a while, Qin Ming went back to the steel rolling mill to continue working.

After work in the evening, Qin Ming went home and told him about the house allocated to him in the factory. Qin's mother was frightened, "Yao Yao, you want to move out?"

"Mom, I won't move, but if there is overtime work in the factory and it is inconvenient to come back too late, I will naturally live there." Although overtime work is rare in the factory, if it happens With a mission like this, Qin Ming naturally couldn't go back home. Now that he has that house, even if he doesn't return to Hongliang Village for a while, his family will treat him like he is working in the factory.

"Okay, just don't move!" Qin's mother looked pleased, but Qin Sanniu's eyes rolled. He is so stupid. He has a house in the city and he doesn't move there. That's Sijiu City. How many people are there? If he wanted to run there, he would be the only one who would foolishly leave the house empty. It was a pity. It would be great if he could find a chance to stay there for a few days and experience the style of the people in Sijiu City.

But this matter cannot be rushed, and you must come up with an excuse that no one in the family can refuse.

……

A few days passed in a hurry.

"Fitter proficiency +5"

After once again improving his proficiency, Qin Ming had countless more things in his mind.

Upgraded again!

Fitter is really a good thing, and there are no special skills. You just need to be familiar with it.

Although Qin Ming's upgrade speed seems to be very fast, in fact it is inseparable from his daily hard work during this period.

He has been immersed in the workshop these days, just for this moment. Finally, his fitter skills have reached the master level.

The system space was expanded again. Qin Ming then went to the toilet and took a general look. A primitive forest appeared inside. At a glance, there were many large and small animals growing in the forest.

Qin Ming did not think about the forest, but retreated directly.

In this upgrade, the system rewards a set of steel rolling encyclopedias, which contains all the current and future steel mill technical knowledge, and more importantly, the drawings.

Originally, after Qin Ming was promoted to master-level benchwork skills, he had mastered various benchwork skills at his fingertips.

Now that he has this thing, Qin Ming can say without exaggeration that as long as he takes out all the things inside, he can directly improve Guo Jia's steel rolling technology by decades.

But Qin Ming also knew that he couldn't take it all out at once.

In my mind, countless drawings flashed quickly, like a movie scene that was pressed in fast motion.

In the end, Qin Ming chose a relatively small drawing.

"Recently, fewer people have come to me to inquire about information. It seems that my talent is not enough to attract people's attention."

"In this case, I take out this thing to invite you to join me. I don't know how they will respond."
