Reborn with a Space: Building a Fortune Amidst Famine

Chapter 261: 261 left for 63 years



Tan Shaoting was really anxious; he already didn't want Yuanyuan to get involved even if it wasn't dangerous, let alone now when the target was a deranged person.

Zhang Chunsheng hurried to the inn, but Su Yuanyuan had checked out almost an hour ago.

Zhang Chunsheng knew for sure she must have gone to the train station to leave.

By the time he reached the train station, the train had already departed.

Tan Shaoting was relieved upon seeing Zhang Chunsheng return alone; the girl had indeed left. That's good.

"Xiao Tan, I will definitely look for Xiao Su this year. She is exceptionally outstanding, even more so than you could say."

Tan Shaoting shook his head, "This place isn't suitable for her." With that, he said no more.

Because of Tan Shaoting's insistence, he was the only one undertaking the mission this time. However, his teammates were still outside waiting.

Su Yuanyuan lay on the bed, thinking that the train wasn't late today. But of course, this was the starting station.

This time she really wanted to go back obediently, and suddenly didn't want to take risks.

Her time on the train was spent reading. Following Tan Shaoting's advice, she directly memorized the books, comparing these herbs with the ones in the space for better memorization.

Plus, the notes Tan Shaoting provided included manufacturing methods, which was even better.

She operated directly with her Divine Sense in the space. Her attribute was water, which was relatively gentle, so manufacturing went quite smoothly.

Also, her strong Divine Sense was very effective in processing the herbs.

Now she didn't feel bored anymore, staying inside the space every day to refine medicine. It seemed addictive; once she completed one, she wanted to make another.

After ten days, she was able to make three types of medicine.

Feeling truly tired that day, she lay down to sleep.

Since she was alone, she didn't feel odd about sleeping in broad daylight.

Just as she slept soundly, two people entered. Su Yuanyuan glanced at them and then turned to continue sleeping.

The two newcomers didn't disturb her and were remarkably quiet.

Su Yuanyuan only noticed the two people were still there when she woke up hungry in the afternoon.

A man and a woman, they seemed together, but there wasn't a sense of closeness between them.

Su Yuanyuan went out to freshen up and came back with some milk powder.

She wanted to drink milk tea, but thought the taste was too fragrant and refrained.

She ate a piece of shortbread, not the hard ones from here now, but her stored ones from before.

After eating, she tidied up and started reading the notes on Array.

Truth be told, Tan Shaoting was too meticulous. Su Yuanyuan found it even more brain-burning.

The two people remained silent until after dinner time. Su Yuanyuan was quite curious.

That evening, she went out with a meal box, having millet porridge and red salted vegetables, which she found good for cleansing the intestines.

When she returned, she didn't see the two, probably because they went out for dinner too.

Yet upon returning, she still didn't notice any interaction between the two, which was truly strange.

But Su Yuanyuan knew this was none of her business. Tan Shaoting had told her there were many bad people now. It's best to be obedient.

Su Yuanyuan was suddenly startled awake in the middle of the night, only to see the woman staring at her. Even in the dark carriage, Su Yuanyuan could sense it.

The woman was on the opposite upper bunk, and Su Yuanyuan could see those eyes full of fear. What was going on?

However, the man on the lower bunk suddenly sat up. Su Yuanyuan followed suit, getting up for a drink. Seeing the woman lay down again, it was truly odd.

The next morning after breakfast, Su Yuanyuan purposely took out some fresh fruit she brought along.

She raised her hand, handing it to the woman on the upper bunk, "Want some? I brought this back, and it's very sweet."

The woman didn't move at all, still lying down.

The man below spoke. "No need, thank you, comrade. She can't speak."

Su Yuanyuan shrugged and sat down on the bench to eat.

"Comrade, judging by your accent, you are also from the north. What brings you here?"

"Work."

So succinct, she decided not to make herself uncomfortable.

For the next two days, there was no disturbance. Su Yuanyuan continued observing the pair but didn't notice anything unusual, and the woman seemed genuinely mute as if the night she stared was unintentional.

Su Yuanyuan relaxed. It's best to mind her business and avoid trouble.

Now she could study some Array, but she could only understand them without a chance to practice.

In roughly a week, she should be getting off the train. She decided to continue without staying over, directly heading back.

That night the woman again stared intently at her, and Su Yuanyuan felt something hit her body.

She clasped an unseeable hard object in hand, wondering what it was.

Upon turning over, she saw a black stone. What was this? Using Divine Sense to probe, she found it quite unusual.

She didn't know what it was. The man remained asleep; the woman made no sound but moved her lips to speak, seemingly afraid Su Yuanyuan wouldn't understand, she mouthed broadly.

Su Yuanyuan glanced twice, understanding she was to hand it over to the military.

Su Yuanyuan nodded, knowing there was a military district in the province she was headed; she'd just make a trip there.

She got off the train directly at the station. The two made no move, and she had no idea where they were headed.

After disembarking, Su Yuanyuan went straight to the military district. But entering wasn't as simple as she hoped, and she dared not casually show the object to anyone there.

Seeing the woman's condition, this object must be of great importance.

"Comrade, I'm here to donate; here is my letter of introduction."

Thinking it over, this seemed the only viable option.

"Please wait a moment."

Shortly, someone came out.

"Comrade, I'm here to donate."

"Thank you, comrade, but we cannot accept any personal property. Thank you for your goodwill."

How could this be? She wanted to enter to find the leader, feeling the object must be presented to a high-ranking official.

Su Yuanyuan was troubled. "Comrade, this is my heartfelt intention. Because of you, we have a stable life."

"We're sorry, but it's against our discipline. We appreciate your intentions."

Su Yuanyuan was helpless, realizing lying was hard for her, "Comrade, may I speak directly to the leader? I know the leader is busy, and I'm just an ordinary person, but I sincerely wish to contribute."

Additionally, I have a message from Zeng Zhenqing for the leader."

The person was familiar with Zeng Zhenqing's name, paused for a moment, "Please hold on, I will consult with the leader."
