Chapter 198 I Want to Do Everything Myself

Lu Jiansen was quite calm. "The Xie family loves money and fame, so it's normal for them to do such things. Let's eat first and don't worry about this."

"Oh!" Gu Xiaoxi continued eating.

But she was still thinking about it.

A woman who looks like her aunt, a woman named Xie Zhu, and her grandfather's remittance slip.

No matter how she thought about it, she felt that things were not simple! Something was wrong!

After dinner, she called Qi Shuangshuang and started to set points for the items on the shelves and wrote points redemption cards.

Just when she had written halfway, she suddenly found that she had gained 100 merit points.

The source of the merit points actually gave her a clue: it was the merit points generated by Cui Man, a young nurse in the military hospital, when she delivered farm tools to her brother.

With these extra 100 merit points, she now has a total of 530 merit points.

This is her richest time yet!

As she was thinking about it, she saw a golden booklet passing by her eyes.

When she blinked, the booklet had already been opened, and a line of large golden characters appeared.

Space Compression (needs 500 points of merit)

Gu Xiaoxi took a deep breath, and with some anticipation and curiosity, he used his merit points to learn the space compression technique.

The next second, she felt her body inexplicably lighter, and the air flow seemed to slow down a lot.

Before she could carefully sense the space compression technique, two new skills appeared on the golden booklet.

Space Organizing Master (20 points of merit required)

Spatial Fixation (10 points of merit required)

Well, once she learned a new skill, her merit value was reduced to zero.

However, these two new skills are really useful. They can restore a messy space to clean and tidy in the blink of an eye.

The spatial fixation technique is also very useful, it can suspend and fix objects in the air without them falling for 24 hours.

However, the suspended fixation looked too magical, so she didn’t dare to use it outside!

"Xiaoxi, don't you think that the variety of goods here is more complete than that of ordinary supply and marketing cooperatives? I want to buy some myself just by looking at them." Qi Shuangshuang suddenly spoke.

Her attention was completely on the shelves, and she didn't notice that Gu Xiaoxi next to her had been distracted and hadn't posted many items.

Gu Xiaoxi came back to his senses and smiled, "You can buy it too! It's settled with points anyway, and you don't need a ticket."

"What a pity I didn't bring anything old to exchange for new ones! What a pity! I'll buy them later with my own money."

"If there's something you really like, you can keep it in advance." Gu Xiaoxi was quite generous and accommodating to his friends.

After putting all the points redemption labels on, she took out a piece of paper and a pen, wrote a simple redemption rule, and posted it on the table at the redemption counter.

Lu Jiansen made the bed for his little girl and lit the brazier before coming out.

"Go to bed early tonight. I'll fill some hot water bottles for you."

Gu Xiaoxi immediately stopped him and said, "You don't have to run around. We can just boil some water. It's still early!"

"Then I'll go get you some water."

Now that he is here, Lu Jiansen wants to do everything himself.

"Well, then go ahead!" Gu Xiaoxi nodded.

Although she was not short of water, she still needed to fetch some water.

After Lu Jiansen left, she sat down to rest for a while and managed her own small space.

After harvesting the mini paddy field, she harvested all the peanuts in the small space, pressed them into peanut oil, and then planted new rice and peanuts.

She also harvested apples, grapes, oranges and grapefruits from the fruit trees and packed them in bags.

Just as she was collecting today's eggs, a few people came outside the tent.

"Excuse me, can we really trade in old items for new ones here? Can we trade in any old items?"

Gu Xiaoxi looked up and saw that the person who spoke was a girl in her twenties. She was wearing a red cross cuff worn by free clinic medical staff on her sleeves and had a shy look on her face.

There were two men and two women coming with her, and they should be from the same hospital.

Gu Xiaoxi nodded. "Well, any old things we use in daily life will do."

"Can we trade in the old one for the new one now?"

"You are medical staff, you can change now."

Although the trade-in will start tomorrow morning, she is still awake now, so it would be nice to earn a few points!

When the girl heard this, she immediately took out a slightly cracked harmonica from her pocket.

"Is this okay? How many points can I redeem?"

Gu Xiaoxi walked forward, took the harmonica and took a look at it. "You are the first one to exchange your old item for a new one, so I'll give you 50 points! You can choose anything with a score of 50 or less."

"Thank...thank you!" The girl was so happy that she immediately went forward to pick things.

The rest of the people also started to think about it.

"I have an old sweater with holes in it. Can I exchange it?" a male doctor asked sheepishly.

Gu Xiaoxi nodded. "Okay. The sweater counts as 10 points."

"Okay, I'll get it right away." The male doctor immediately ran back to his tent to get the thing.

He just saw that ten points could buy half a pound of brightly colored new wool.

He had worn that sweater for many years and it had holes in it and was no longer warm.

"Can worn-out and damaged shoes be replaced?" a middle-aged female doctor who had not spoken before asked tentatively.

Gu Xiaoxi still nodded, "That's fine."

"But what's the use of the old shoes?" the female doctor asked curiously.

Gu Xiaoxi smiled and said, "The main purpose is to serve the people. The time is limited to the free clinic in these few days. So don't miss the opportunity!"

The female doctor smiled and immediately went back to look for old things she no longer needed.

Qi Shuangshuang saw that the stream was open and immediately ran over to help.

Before long, Gu Xiaoxi collected an old sweater with holes in it, two old cotton-padded jackets, an old military coat, and two pairs of old shoes.

When it came time to exchange for new ones, some people changed their sweaters, while others exchanged their old cotton-padded clothes for new ones.

Those who wanted to change their military coats would use their old coats and pay a coin to buy a brand new one.

Little did the man know that the military coat he bought was actually his own military coat.

So, in the moment when Gu Xiaoxi bent down to pick up the clothes, she earned one point and one dollar just by going through the second-hand goods store.

When the two old cotton-padded jackets appeared as options in the new product showroom, she used the Wanwu Sui Xin color card, changed the patterns of the jackets, and put them back on the shelves.

As for the sweater, it naturally turned into wool and was also colored red.

The Chinese New Year is coming, this color is very festive, and red is very rare.

She exchanged her old shoes for new ones and got four pairs of children's shoes in different sizes.

Just as she took out some wood blocks to make a box for the harmonica, Lu Jiansen and Li Kun came back with two buckets of water and two thermos bottles.
