Reborn with a Space: Building a Fortune Amidst Famine

The snow this year is late, hopefully it won't affect the spring planting.

Now that it's snowing, there's no way to go out.

In just an hour or two, she'll come out to shovel the snow, mainly to clear a path so the livestock and pesticides can be warmed up.

Before it gets dark, she'll climb onto the roof to shovel the snow. She's afraid that if the snow on the roof gets too thick, it might damage the house.

At night, she goes directly to the space to rest. She worked up quite a sweat shoveling snow during the day, so a bath is a must.

She's quite content here, but it's not so easy for Tan Shaoting over there.

Right now, he's lying motionless on the ground, waiting for the target to appear.

They haven't had anything to eat or drink all day.

Tan Shaoting can endure all this, but it's so cold that he ends up eating a piece of candy.

These candies were stuffed into his hands by Su Yuanyuan, who said back then that candy was a quick way to boost energy, and now it's proving true. The rest of them just have to wait it out.

Fortunately, they're far from the gathering spot; otherwise, others would definitely catch a whiff of this sweet scent.

The target finally appeared, and seeing the three approaching, Tan Shaoting calculated that he could probably only take down two.

So he aimed directly and, with the help of the Divine Sense, took out two with consecutive shots.

The third one was taken down by a companion.

Five of them approached together, looking at the three on the ground.

"Sergeant, your marksmanship is amazing."

"Yeah, I was stunned for a moment after hearing those two shots. Wow, really dead-on."

Three of them were responsible for cleaning up the battlefield. Tan Shaoting pulled out some candies from his pocket and gave each of them one piece.

"Sergeant, you're still not done with the candy from the sister-in-law?"

Despite that, they immediately tossed the candies into their mouths.

Because Tan Shaoting liked hearing them call her sister-in-law, he gave that person an extra piece.

They took the goods they needed and returned to report back.

"Sergeant, isn't the sister-in-law coming to see you this year?"

"She probably won't come this year."

"The sister-in-law is already doing quite well, being able to come see you."

Even though the four of them were older than Tan Shaoting, they didn't feel awkward calling her sister-in-law at all.

"The journey is too tough."

"Who knows when we'll get a holiday? I want to go home and take a look too."

The other three thought the same and agreed.

Tan Shaoting also wanted to go back, especially since he hadn't seen Su Yuanyuan this year, making him worried. Isn't this girl coming out?

This isn't like her at all. She loves Jinyu so much, she should come out.

Could something have happened to her outside? It shouldn't be. That girl is always so cautious.

The five of them finished their mission and went back to rest. Lying in bed, Tan Shaoting couldn't sleep. He thought about going to ask if they had any vacation time.

He really wanted to go back. Go back to see that heartless girl, why hasn't she come to see him?

Then he thought about whether he should have her come over, but immediately dismissed the idea.

It's too tiring and dangerous here.

He really couldn't bear it, even though that girl would be tired at the farm too, but it's safe there.

It's not really too far from him to that girl. If he could go back, he'd be by her side in ten days.

With this thought, Tan Shaoting couldn't stay in bed any longer.

He checked the time, the report at the leadership office should be finished by now. So he put on his hat and went out.

"Come in."

After entering, Tan Shaoting saluted, "Leader, I need to request a leave to go back."

"You five have a two-month vacation. Then report back at the border directly."

"Yes, thank you, leader."

After Tan Shaoting left, Zeng Zhenqing smiled. What a talent, he's the best sniper I have.

Wanting to go back is normal. But who knows if that clever girl can come along.

In fact, Zeng Zhenqing didn't really know why he always wanted that girl to come. Somehow, he felt she had to be exceptional.

After leaving the leader's office, Tan Shaoting jogged all the way. He found his four subordinates directly.

"Everyone gets two months of vacation, then report back at the border."

The four of them quickly started packing; this squad has people from all over, and this place isn't far from the farm.

He just changed into regular clothes, as per discipline. After packing his belongings, he carried them on his back and left.

There weren't many people at the train station, but he had to wait five hours for the train.

Although this frustrated Tan Shaoting, he soon smiled, bought the train ticket, and left.

He knew what that girl liked, so he went looking for it directly.

The most valuable thing he had was meat. With the New Year approaching, meat was in very high demand.

He found someone at the black market, but scared the person, who thought they were exposed and caught.

Then he realized they came to exchange for Jinyu.

"Comrade, you scared me to death. I thought I was caught this time.

I have Jinyu, how much do you want?"

"How much do you have?"

"Haha, what huge talk. I'll be honest with you, this Jinyu is underground. Will you take it like that?"

Tan Shaoting nodded. "Just tell me how much you have and what you want."

"Anything you have?"

"Food."

"I want fish, meat."

Tan Shaoting nodded.

"I have 200 jin of Jinyu, which is 3,200 taels."

"I'll take them all." Tan Shaoting was indeed in disguise, and his voice had changed, making him somewhat fearless, although it would be dark soon.

"Really?"

"This is no joke. Pork is two and a half yuan. Beef is three and a half yuan, and there are 200 fish, each 4 to 5 jin, at two yuan each, priced by size. How many of each do you want?"

"Comrade, let me think, let me think about how much of each to take." Gong Qingjun felt a bit dazed as if he had been hit hard.

"Comrade. Here's the deal, give me 100 fish, 1,000 jin of beef, and the rest in pork, okay?

And is this pork from a whole pig?"

"There's no offal, but it has bones."

"Good. Just as I said before."

"That would be 100 fish, 1,000 jin of beef, and 8,760 jin of pork."

Gong Qingjun nodded, "Yes, just like that."

"Three hours later, go to the woods outside the city. If the Jinyu quality isn't good, you'll have to leave with the goods."

This scared Gong Qingjun quite a bit, and he hurriedly pulled out a piece from his pocket and handed it to Tan Shaoting.

"Comrade, take a look; they're all like this, really, I'm not lying."

Tan Shaoting had already noticed it, so he nodded, "If all of them are of this quality, there won't be a problem. Alright, go prepare."

"Comrade, I'll need three horse carriages to carry so many things back."
