Stop pretending, I'm a security guard, a five-star general!

"I suddenly saw this quest while browsing quests at the Adventurers' Guild. The quest objective is to eradicate the rat infestation on the farm, and the reward is five Beginner Spirit Gathering Pills. They might be useful to you. Are you interested in taking it?"

"Spirit Gathering Pill!?"

When Liu Damao and Li Xiaoke saw it, their eyes lit up.

This item can help them absorb a large amount of spiritual energy in a short time, thereby rapidly increasing their cultivation speed, which is definitely of great help to them.

So they agreed without even thinking about it.

However, Qin Yu was somewhat uninterested after seeing it.

After all, he had the triple cultivation speed card from the system shop, which was much more effective than this beginner-level Spirit Gathering Pill.

Qin Yu: "I'm not going, I need to sleep."

Upon seeing this, Lin Qingxue sighed softly, somewhat disappointed.

If Qin Yu doesn't go, then there's no point in her taking on this mission.

After all, she came from a wealthy family and had no shortage of basic Spirit Gathering Pills.

[Li Xiaoke]: "It's only a little past seven in the evening, why are you sleeping? Let's get up and party!"

[Lin Qingxue]: "Yes, Qin Yu, and the rats in the farm are not ordinary rats, but one-star steel-toothed rats, which is perfect for us to improve teamwork and practical experience."

[Qin Yu]: "Forget it, I only slept for twelve hours today, I'm seriously sleep-deprived."

Upon seeing this, both Lin Qingxue and Li Xiaoke's lips twitched violently.

Goodness, there are only 24 hours in a day, and you've already slept more than half of them, and you still don't feel it's enough?

Are you a koala?

After seeing the chat in the group, Liu Damao shook his head with a helpless smile.

These two people really don't understand Lao Qin at all.

This kid is nicknamed "The Money-Grubbing Hermit." If you want him to get moving, the only options besides letting him get away with it are to talk about money.

Thinking of this, he said directly in the group:

[Liu Damao]: "I heard that the market price of a basic Spirit Gathering Pill is around 50."

[Qin Yu]: "Wait, I'll get dressed and come over right now!"

[Li Xiaoke & Lin Qingxue]: "???"

……

After a while, Qin Yu arrived at a bus stop and asked Liu Damao and Li Xiaoke, who had already arrived:

Why did we agree to meet here?

Liu Damao said, "I just used a map app to navigate. We'll take bus number 13 here, then transfer to bus number 32, then transfer to bus number 74, and then ride a shared bike for more than three kilometers to get directly to the farm."

Upon hearing this, Qin Yu's lips twitched slightly.

Good grief, you seem to have some misunderstanding about direct routes?

"Why don't we just take a taxi?" Li Xiaoke asked curiously.

"Are you stupid? It costs over two hundred yuan to take a taxi from here to that farm. If we split that among the four of us, it'll be over fifty yuan each," Liu Damao said, speechless.

"According to my plan, the cost per person will not exceed ten yuan."

"What you said makes a lot of sense." Li Xiaoke nodded in deep agreement.

At that moment, options appeared before Qin Yu's eyes.

[Option 1: With a wave of his hand, he directly treats everyone to taxis to the farm, showing off his lavish lifestyle. Reward: A small amount of spiritual energy.]

Option Two: Choose Liu Damao's travel plan. Completion Reward: Large Amount of Spiritual Energy.

Option 3: Ride a shared bike directly to the farm. Completion Reward: 5-minute trial card for the residential area *1 (After using this card, the area within a one-kilometer radius will become a void residential area for five minutes)

Upon seeing the options before him, Qin Yu was momentarily stunned, but then decisively chose option three.

After all, the tenfold combat power boost attribute attached to his title [Five-Star General of Biguiyuan] only applies within the residential area.

The key point is that, so far, he hasn't gotten into many fights in the neighborhood, which makes his title somewhat meaningless.

But it's different if you have this community experience card.

He can create a void community anytime, anywhere, which is equivalent to him gaining a skill that can increase his combat power tenfold at any time and in any place. It can be called another ultimate trump card!

Thinking of this, Qin Yu's eyes darted around, and he said directly:

"I disagree. Your plan isn't cost-effective enough."

"Hmm?" Liu Damao was slightly taken aback: "This plan is the most cost-effective one that I have researched for a long time. Do you have an even more cost-effective one?"

"Of course." Qin Yu smiled slightly and said, "Since we're going to ride shared bikes anyway, why don't we just start riding them from the beginning?"

"Minions bike-sharing is having a promotion right now, offering a 7-day unlimited ride pass for 7 yuan. Isn't that cheaper than your plan?"

Liu Damao's lips twitched slightly.

"Just to save a few dollars, we're going to ride bikes for over twenty kilometers? Are you crazy?!"

"What are you talking about?!" Qin Yu's eyes widened immediately. "What do you mean, 'just to save a few dollars'?"

"Comrade Liu Damao, I'm not criticizing you, but your ideological awareness really needs improvement. This is really a bit like saying 'Why don't they eat cake?'"

"Do you know that there are still hundreds of millions of people in our Great Xia who don't earn more than a thousand yuan a month? For them, those few yuan are equivalent to their food expenses for a whole day!"

"Exactly!" Li Xiaoke nodded in agreement.

"Moreover, cycling there not only protects the environment but also provides exercise—that's what youth is all about!"

Qin Yu smiled and nodded: "Comrade Xiao Ke is absolutely right."

"Comrade Liu Damao, please remember that as good young people raised under the red flag, we must always adhere to the principle of coming from the masses and going back to the masses. We must never detach ourselves from the lives of ordinary people and float high in the sky."

Liu Damao: "..."

These two are completely obsessed.

He waved his hand dismissively, "Forget it, I will absolutely not agree to your plan."

"Let's vote by raising our hands. The minority shall obey the majority. Those who agree to ride shared bikes, please raise your hands!"

Qin Yu and Li Xiaoke raised their hands at the same time.

"OK, two to one, the plan is approved!"

"Wait a minute, what about Lin Qingxue?" Liu Damao hurriedly said.

He believed that a rich girl like Lin Qingxue would absolutely not agree to the suggestion of cycling more than 20 kilometers.

Soon, a luxurious Maybach drove up, and Lin Qingxue stepped out.

"Uncle Fu, you should go back now."

Lin Qingxue smiled and waved to the butler.

Upon hearing this, the butler bowed slightly and then drove away again.

When Liu Damao saw Lin Qingxue coming, he looked at her like she was a savior and quickly said:

"Xiaoxue, you're finally here! You need to talk to these two. They're like they're possessed, insisting on riding shared bikes to the farm. Isn't that crazy?"

"Huh?" Lin Qingxue was indeed surprised upon hearing this, and looked at Qin Yu and Li Xiaoke with a surprised expression: "You guys are planning to go by bicycle?"

Qin Yu began to explain:

“Xiaoxue, think about it. The country is now advocating low-carbon travel. If we ride bicycles there, it will be a good response to the country’s call for environmental protection.”

“Yes, yes, and it’s also good exercise, you can enjoy the beautiful scenery along the way, and feel the cool breeze at night. Isn’t that youthful?” Li Xiaoke said with shining eyes.

"Ah...Is that so?"

Lin Qingxue was slightly taken aback, but after thinking for a moment, she smiled and nodded in agreement.

"Alright then, whatever you say goes."

Liu Damao: ? ? ?
