Reborn with a Space: Building a Fortune Amidst Famine

Su Yuanyuan understood. Actually, who knows how much of this stuff she has underground?

With a smile, she put it away. Then she got on the kang; the temperature in the room was still fine. Moreover, she had just cooked a meal, so when Tan Shaoting lay down, he still felt hot.

"Yuanyuan, why didn't you go out this year?"

This girl has always been very eager to go outside.

"Last year, we planted cotton. There was a pest outbreak, and it was just me and the Zhao Family. The Li Family's cotton was spared.

At the time, there was an order issued, but the pesticide factory had not dispatched any supplies, so I went myself. I brought back some insecticides and herbicides.

After returning, I went to the fertilizer plant again, so I didn't go out."

"That's not right. Did something happen?"

"Yeah, when I was bringing back pesticides, I brought back a problem."

"A problem?"

"A girl who might be from the same place as me."

Tan Shaoting's eyes moved slightly. "Why did you bring her back?"

"It's not that I wanted to bring her back, she's a talent too."

Su Yuanyuan explained Zheng Lanying's and her own experiences. "Who knew she'd choose Second Farm?

She had already signed up and wanted to come back with me. How could I refuse? I was quite frustrated too."

"You should limit your contact with people like that. Are you worried about yourself when you see her?"

"Yeah." Su Yuanyuan sighed after she said this.

"I always thought I wasn't any different, but looking at Zheng Lanying, I realized my differences were dangerous."

"It's okay, in the future, whatever you need, I'm here. Besides, we've prepared a lot already."

"Haha, did I ever tell you I want a lot of Jinyu?"

"You still feel you don't have enough, right?"

"Who would complain about having too much?"

"Yuanyuan, I know a place with a lot, a lot—it's a burial ground, but I don't have time to deal with it now; it should be dangerous there." Tan Shaoting decided to tell this girl.

He discovered it during a mission in the summer. It's very hidden there. If it weren't for sensing something was amiss, he wouldn't have found it even after repeatedly checking with his Divine Sense.

There should be many protective measures inside. He had tried using his Divine Sense but couldn't manage it and didn't know what restrictions there might be inside. He was thinking of going back when there's a chance.

"Is it very dangerous? Let's go together if we go. Whenever you're free, I'll come find you."

"I'll arrange things after I return and then find a way to notify you. You go there in advance and wait for me."

Su Yuanyuan nodded with a smile; she was a bit curious, but she knew even if she asked now, Tan Shaoting wouldn't tell her, fearing she'd go alone.

It'd actually be more manageable alone; if it doesn't work out, she could just hide in the space.

With Tan Shaoting, it wouldn't work. This was meant to stay buried within her.

"We find good things during missions, and I remember them. Although it's somewhat dangerous, at least we don't have to worry about others discovering our differences."

"Okay, I know. I'll try not to go out trading things in the future."

In the space, there are still dozens of pigs, a few thousand pounds of beef, no urgency. As for the grain, it can just stay there.

Tan Shaoting saw the girl yawning and decided not to pester her for conversation anymore. There was still plenty of time.

Half an hour later, Tan Shaoting moved to Su Yuanyuan's side, just watching her intently.

This is the girl he liked, both her eyes and her personality, it's all what he likes.

He reached out, tracing the girl's features. How could she be so endearing?

The next day, it was past eight when Su Yuanyuan awoke to knocking outside. She was a bit groggy until she saw Tan Shaoting sleeping beside her; she realized he had indeed come back.

Tan Shaoting also woke up, seeing the little girl's gaze clearing up, he sat up smiling to put on his clothes.

Zheng Lanying felt her heart jump upon seeing the man who opened the door.

"Who are you?" Tan Shaoting frowned; this woman's gaze was too repulsive.

"I'm Zheng Lanying. I came to see Su Yuanyuan, who are you?"

"I'm Su Yuanyuan's man, wait here, I'll call her."

Zheng Lanying realized, this is the guy living with Su Yuanyuan, right? How is he so good-looking? She felt envious of Su Yuanyuan from the bottom of her heart. How come all the good things happen to her?

Engrossed in her thoughts until Tan Shaoting closed the door before her, she only then reacted.

Standing outside the door, she felt very wronged, why shut her out?

Tan Shaoting came back in to find Su Yuanyuan already dressed, folding the quilt.

"Outside, is it Zheng Lanying?" Just one glance, and oh boy, another woman charmed by Tan Shaoting.

"Yeah, that woman is so annoying."

"Alright, you go freshen up, I'll go out and have a look."

"Yuanyuan, don't let her into our home."

Su Yuanyuan smiled and nodded, "Okay."

She put on her coat, grabbed her hat, and went out. "Comrade Zheng, what brings you to me so early?"

Su Yuanyuan emphasized the word 'early', are you crazy, coming at this time in the winter?

Zheng Lanying looked at Su Yuanyuan wrapped up tightly across from her, crazily envious.

Still, she hadn't forgotten why she came.

"Su Yuanyuan, I want to borrow some meat from you. I can pay you too."

Ma Dongmei did say that last year, Su Yuanyuan raised three pigs by herself.

Su Yuanyuan laughed. But it was a sarcastic laugh.

"Sorry, I sold all the meat last year; I only kept a little for myself and it's been eaten. I truly don't have any to lend you."

Really big nerve. Saying you'd pay, what if not paying? Would you expect to get it for free? This person really made her regret more and more.

If she had come straight with money, she might have thought better of her.

But clearly, she came to take advantage. Do I have "sucker" written on my forehead?

Why does she treat me like a pushover, I didn't give any hope or wrong information to her. How could she keep coming, not afraid of being refused?

"Su Yuanyuan, can you lend me some oil and pickles then?"

"Comrade Zheng, you can go buy what you need from others, my house really can't spare any."

"Su Yuanyuan, I know I was wrong last time, I shouldn't have given you a hard time. Please forgive me."

Laughable. Going to someone else's place, surely you couldn't get anything without paying.

This little money she had still needed to last a year. She bought just a bit of salt for a dollar from the Ma Family, not to mention toilet paper.
