The display of strength that night, what struck Chen Li the most, was that his network of connections had suddenly expanded several times over.
The relationship with the neighbors became much more amicable.
Before that night, many were indifferent or dismissive when Chen Li initiated greetings, but after that event, everyone's face turned into a smile, their attitude became enthusiastic, and the greeting gesture shifted from being initiated by him to being initiated by them.
Everyone on this street knew of him, or at least had heard of him.
With such a large batch of invaluable goods, Chen Li naturally wouldn't think of setting up a stall in the market or going door to door to sell his wares, as the former could easily attract ill-intentioned people, and the latter was time-consuming, labor-intensive, and troublesome.
The next morning, Chen Li paid a visit to Qiao Guanyuan.
