Chapter 515 A Practical Fireplace
Li Qin was a man of action. Since he realized he needed to replenish his storage ring with food, he naturally didn't delay eating. After dinner, Li Qin usually drank tea and rested.
Today, he turned around and entered the suitcase space.
He first retrieved various ingredients, grains, vegetables... from the storage warehouse within the pagoda space.
After taking some items out, put them into the kitchen inside the suitcase.
Then immediately activate the kitchen with a life magic spell.
The kitchen utensils suddenly seemed to come alive and began to move;
Washing vegetables, chopping vegetables, starting a fire, stir-frying...
Everything in the kitchen began to move busily and orderly.
At this moment, Li Qin had some free time.
He has done what he was required to do.
Replenish the ingredients in the kitchen, and then finalize the required menu.
The rest was naturally handled by magic.
According to Li Qin's estimate, the kitchen would need to be busy until at least tomorrow morning to finish preparing the dishes he had just ordered.
This is still due to the involvement of a magic spell, which increased the efficiency of cooking.
If it were done manually, it would probably take several days to prepare the meals Li Qin needed.
After preparing everything, Li Qin checked the prisoners and, after confirming that there were no problems, left the suitcase space.
By this time, it had actually started snowing outside.
One after another, tiny white snowflakes fell down.
Although it's not very obvious yet, if this snow continues, it will definitely accumulate to a thick layer by tomorrow.
As the snowflakes truly began to fall, the temperature started to drop rapidly again.
Even though the doors and windows of Li Qin's house were very well sealed, the temperature inside the house could still be felt to have changed.
Fortunately, Li Qin had already lit the fireplace while they were eating earlier.
That's why this change isn't too obvious.
"Let's turn up the fire in the fireplace, otherwise the temperature inside won't keep up with the temperature changes outside."
Li Qin walked to the fireplace again, opened the air intake completely, and added more fuel into the fireplace.
With the air intake fully opened, the firewood and coal inside the fireplace burned even more vigorously.
Standing in front of the fireplace, Li Qin immediately felt the heat coming towards him.
Li Qin nodded in satisfaction.
Now all the heating pipes for the fireplace have been turned on, and as the fuel inside burns, the heat will travel through the pipes to the entire house.
However, considering that no one usually lives on the second floor and he doesn't live there himself, Li Qin turned off the heating pipes leading to the second floor.
The heating system will only circulate in the rooms on the first floor.
The room temperature will rise faster.
After doing all that, it's almost time.
Li Qin then got up to go to night school.
Even though it's snowing outside, as long as the night school doesn't announce a break, classes can't be delayed.
Fortunately, Li Qin had a way to maintain his body temperature, so he didn't feel too uncomfortable even though it was snowing outside.
To avoid looking out of place, Li Qin still wraps himself up tightly in a thick cotton coat when he goes out.
Because of the snow, almost everyone is staying at home.
So Li Qin didn't encounter anyone on his way out of the courtyard house.
Li Qin didn't seem to care about this.
After several hours of classes, when Li Qin came out of the classroom, he immediately saw that there was already a thin layer of snow on the ground.
Although the snow wasn't very thick, the snowflakes kept falling from the sky.
And it seems unlikely that it will stop in the short term.
At this rate, we should be able to have a snowball fight tomorrow.
"Phew, the snow really came down suddenly. Things are about to get a little tough."
Just as Li Qin's attention was drawn to the snowflakes outside, Chang Yong, Feng Yu, and a few others also came out.
Although it wasn't very warm inside the classroom, it was still much better than outside.
As soon as they stepped out of the classroom, a gust of cold wind made them all instinctively shrink their necks.
Chang Yong's brows furrowed involuntarily.
His face was full of bitterness.
Chang Yong works in the transportation department as a driver, so he needs to go out from time to time.
If the weather were nice, that would be fine, but now that it's snowing, driving out is not only uncomfortable, but more importantly, the risk is greatly increased.
"Judging from this snow, it looks like it won't stop anytime soon. Li Qin, Chang Yong, please be careful if you go out."
Feng Yu and the others understood these things, so they all gave Li Qin and Chang Yong some advice.
Li Qin and Chang Yong could feel the concern of the group, and immediately smiled and nodded.
In fact, whether it's windy or rainy, thundering or snowing, it doesn't really affect Li Qin.
After all, his trip to the countryside to purchase goods was just a gimmick.
In reality, every time he was supposed to be going to the countryside, he would end up going to Hong Kong to have fun.
After exchanging a few more words, the group went their separate ways home.
The weather was bad, and it was already late at night, so no one was in the mood to play.
"Crunch, crunch!"
As the bicycle rolled over the snow, it made a sickeningly loud sound.
It should have been the middle of the night, but because of the snowflakes, some outlines could be vaguely seen.
Li Qin had originally planned to use Apparition to teleport home as soon as he left the steel mill, but now he had no choice but to obediently ride his bike back.
Fortunately, Li Qin's bicycle had been modified, and his physical fitness was quite remarkable, so he appeared in front of the courtyard house in just over ten minutes.
Because of the snow, the residents of the courtyard house went to bed early.
However, the gate of the courtyard house was only closed from the inside, not locked.
Li Qin was also a man of principle; he knew that this was not the time to make a big fuss.
He carefully opened the courtyard gate, pushed the bicycle inside, and then closed the gate again.
Then they went back to their home in the backyard.
After locking the bicycle under the eaves and making sure the snowflakes wouldn't fall on it, Li Qin returned to the house.
The moment Li Qin stepped into the house, he had the illusion that the season had changed.
Outside the house it was a cold winter, but inside it was warm and cozy.
Based on his experience, the temperature inside the house should be around 22 or 23 degrees Celsius at this time.
A look of satisfaction flashed in Li Qin's eyes;
"Sure enough, having a fireplace really makes a difference."
He knew the house was so warm because he had lit the fireplace before he left. Several hours had passed, and the fireplace had now heated up the entire house.
Li Qin casually took off his thick cotton-padded coat and hung it on a hook on the wall.
Although some snowflakes fell on it when I came back, given the temperature inside the house, the cotton-padded coat will definitely be dry by tomorrow morning.
Now that the house is warm enough, there's no need to open all the air vents in the fireplace.
After Li Qin added some more fuel to the fireplace, he closed the air vent halfway.
This time he filled the tank with more fuel than before, because it was meant to burn all night.
Meanwhile, place the kettle on the fireplace.
That way, when he wakes up tomorrow, he will have hot water to use directly.
