Chapter 44 [44] Just swipe your face to get a discount
"laugh!"
Accompanied by a loud whistling sound, a large amount of steam came out instantly.
The four wheels of the crystal energy vehicle were instantly jammed, and the vehicle stopped on the side of the road.
The braking system of this vehicle uses pneumatic braking, so every time it starts or stops, it will make a roaring sound of steam erupting.
Cheng Han came from another time and space and was used to advanced hydraulic braking. Naturally, he felt that this was an extremely backward design, and the harsh sound was really uncomfortable.
But the common people in this world don't care.
People who own crystal-powered cars are eager to make them as loud as possible.
Cheng Han said hello to Qian Qingqing: "See you tomorrow."
The little girl replied with a sweet smile: "See you tomorrow!"
Cheng Han then waved his right hand towards the driver in the front row, the little girl's father, Qian Yiqing: "Goodbye, Uncle Qian."
Qian Yiqing smiled back: "Goodbye!"
Cheng Han pushed open the door and quickly got out of the car.
behind him.
The crystal energy car started slowly and quickly.
Qian Qingqing followed Cheng Han through the glass window until the night completely obscured his figure.
Qian Yiqing caught a glimpse of his daughter's expression through the rearview mirror and couldn't help but shook his head: "Qingqing, no wonder you've suddenly become so interested in cooking since half a year.
"Why do I have a feeling that you are clear about your preferences for this deskmate? I'm afraid you are not so clear about your father either."
The father felt a strong sense of sourness in his heart when he thought of his daughter getting into the kitchen and discussing cooking with his wife as soon as she came home.
A young man actually enjoyed treatment that he couldn't even imagine.
This is really unreasonable!
Qian Yiqing had a distressed look on his face: "I am only willing to try a few pieces of the pastries you made. If I eat a few more pieces, you will look unhappy. Are you afraid that Cheng Han will eat less?
"
This middle-aged man truly felt that his daughter was raised in vain.
No.
It should have been raised by that boy named "Cheng Han".
Qian Qingqing couldn't stand it anymore and quickly comforted her father: "Okay, okay, I'll make you a plate of 'Linhua Cake' tonight."
She quickly made an excuse: "Didn't I tell you yesterday? Cheng Han has just condensed the source sense seal and will start exercising soon."
"This process requires a lot of nutritional supplements to achieve better physical training effects. You also know that Cheng Han is an orphan, and I am his deskmate, so I just want to help him."
This explanation sounds reasonable.
But the middle-aged man immediately discovered the flaw.
Qian Yiqing curled his lips and said teasingly: "I really didn't realize that you actually have the ability to predict the future. You started helping your classmates half a year in advance."
Qian Qingqing replied plausibly: "Cheng Han's living expenses are limited. At that time, I just helped him improve his living standard. This is for the joy of helping others!"
Qian Yiqing immediately refuted: "There are so many students in your class, and more than one or two are in poor family conditions. Why do you have to help Cheng Han?"
Along the way, the father and daughter started bickering.
But bickering is bickering, Qian Yiqing felt in his heart that his daughter's vision was actually very accurate.
like me!

After Cheng Han got off the bus, he did not go home directly.
He walked dozens of meters and entered a "fire shop", which is a shop that specializes in selling fuel blocks, firewood and other items.
Throughout Qinglin City, this type of firework shop can be found almost everywhere. The shopkeepers are also responsible for door-to-door delivery, and the service is quite attentive.
Since he received a large sum of money today and considering that the long cold winter is coming soon, he plans to order a batch of firewood.
Although fuel blocks are easier to use and just plug into the stove, which is not only convenient and fast, but also has very stable firepower, it is more cost-effective to burn wood for heating.
He discussed with the store for a while and purchased three thousand kilograms of Bai Ke wood. Even if he burned firewood continuously throughout the day, it would be enough for more than two months.
It's not that I don't want to buy more.
Unfortunately, the house is too small to save so much.
The male shopkeeper calculated silently for a moment and then quoted the price: "Bai Ke wood is more resistant to burning, and the price is slightly more expensive. It costs one copper coin or two catties, three thousand catties is fifteen silver coins, and the delivery fee is fifty copper coins."
If it were its predecessor, how could it be willing to spend so much money?
But Cheng Han's current monthly income is as high as more than one hundred silver coins, which is definitely a high income in the eyes of ordinary people. For him, this amount of money is just drizzle.
At this time.
A girl with a ponytail quickly walked into the store and shouted in a clear voice: "Dad, Mom is calling you..."
Halfway through his words, he stopped abruptly.
The girl stared straight at Cheng Han, her expression a little excited and with a little admiration: "Senior Cheng Han, why did you come to my store?"
The male shopkeeper was stunned for a moment, and his tone revealed deep surprise: "Are you the student who knocked over the feathered beast?"
Cheng Han was a little confused.
He already understood that the girl with the ponytail was a student of No. 15 Middle School, but how could even a firewood seller know what happened this morning?
The news spread too fast!
The male shop owner gave him a thumbs up and said generously: "You are amazing, young man! Our store will waive the delivery fee for you this time."
The girl interjected: "Do you want to avoid this just this time?"
The word "talent" fully shows her tendency.
The male shopkeeper touched his head and said generously: "Okay, I will waive it all from now on."
Faced with this situation, Cheng Han could only sincerely say: "Thank you!"
The girl giggled and said: "Senior, I am 'Pei Ying' from Class 8, Grade 2. If my classmates know that my senior buys firewood in my store without any discount, they will definitely say that my family is too stingy."
This is obviously another child who is good at "turning his elbows outward".
The male shopkeeper glanced at his daughter and shook his head helplessly.
Just because of your classmate’s comment, how much less will our family earn?
What a sin!
Cheng Han felt strange.
He never expected that now he could enjoy a discount based on his face. No wonder so many people like to be famous.
For a fire shop, only three thousand kilograms of firewood was not much. The shop owner called a worker, loaded the goods hard, and then pulled the pallet out the door.
Pei Ying said warmly: "Senior Cheng Han, welcome to visit us next time!"
Cheng Han waved in response and left the pyrotechnics shop.

Due to delays in many matters, it was already nine o'clock in the evening after Cheng Han roasted a fat and tender cave rabbit and shared the feast with the black cat.
He brought a piece of white wood and said with a smile: "Sheriff, let me do a trick for you. Do you want to see it?"
The black cat raised his head curiously: "Meow~"
Cheng Han raised a finger and activated the true flame remnant seal with his mind, and a bright small fireball instantly appeared on his fingertip.
He raised his right hand, grabbed the fireball, and made a "pull" gesture.
With this movement, a thin thread comparable to the tip of a needle appeared between his hands, and the color was dark red.
The black cat's eyes suddenly widened.
It could be seen that the thin lines seemed to be made of flames.
But the question is, how could the flame change into this form?
Amazing!
Cheng Han suddenly shouted: "Watch it!"
He suddenly raised his right hand and made a "whip-cracking" motion.
The line of fire passed quickly and hit Bai Kemu accurately.
A puff of green smoke immediately came out.
Cheng Han kicked Bai Kemu with his left foot.
"boom!"
The piece of wood held by both hands was suddenly divided into two pieces, and the middle section was dark, as if it had been burned by fire.
Cheng Han asked with a smile: "How about this trick?"
This is the new skill gained by completing the True Flame Residual Seal today - turning flames into silk.
"Meow~"
The black cat's cry is full of mystery.
Cheng Han smiled happily: "It will be easier to chop firewood in the future. This trick can save a lot of energy."
In fact, the skill of turning flames into silk is not just as simple as saving a little effort, it is also an extremely powerful attack method.
Just imagine, if you throw a flaming whip at the enemy and hit the opponent's body, what will be the consequences?
Naturally, one whip breaks the two!
Although the current limit distance of the whip does not exceed five meters, as his strength becomes stronger and stronger, it is not too far away to break through thirty or even fifty meters.
All in all, the future is promising!
Cheng Han stroked the cat's head and talked about another thing: "Do you remember Chen Zhengyang?"
The black cat flicked its tail: "Meow~"
Cheng Han spoke eloquently: "Judging from the current situation, Chen Zhengyang should be just a 'puppet' who is secretly controlled, and the controller behind the scenes is probably hidden around him.
"The official may have discovered a clue about this person and is quietly hunting him down, and this person was aware of it, so he acted so cautiously."
The black cat raised its cat ears and listened without blinking.
Cheng Han added: "The white-clawed crows I sent out monitored Chen Zhengyang for a whole day today, but found nothing, which just illustrates this point."
He pointed at the firewood and continued: "I thought of a way before, maybe make a fuss about the firewood to test Chen Zhengyang..."
Halfway through speaking, an idea flashed in his mind, and a sudden realization came to him.
