I asked you to dig wild vegetables to pay off your debt, not go up the mountain to pick up money!

"Master needs to reach level five. There are still so many illustrated books waiting for you to unlock."

Xiangxiang could clearly feel that Song Anning was in a low mood. She suddenly felt like a waste. She was so familiar with her master, but she still had to follow the rigid rules. She could only give her master a golden finger for a short while.

"It's okay, we have a boat."

After she renovates the house and buys land, she will go to the sea. Maybe with one cast of the net, she can unlock dozens of illustrations. She is already very satisfied to have Xiangxiang by her side and to give her so many conveniences.

Song An Ning didn't have much ambition, and he knew that he didn't have the ability to dominate another world. It was enough for him to build this small home and take good care of his family.

But the more she looked at the screen in front of her, the more she felt something was wrong.

"Hey? Xiangxiang, did you forget something?

I have now unlocked over 400 types of illustrated books. Last time, you forgot to give me the lucky draw!"

Xiangxiang glanced at Song Anning's lottery record quietly, and giggled guiltily:

"Oh, Master, Xiangxiang was careless for a moment. At that time, we were at the beach and those two little devils were still plotting against you. It was full of dangers. I was so focused on this matter that I forgot about it."

Song Anning lowered her head and chuckled, then replied to her consciously: "Okay, I missed the lottery, Xiangxiang, do you want to compensate me?"

"..."

She was wondering why Song Anning smiled in a lewd way, and it turned out that she was waiting here!

The guilt I felt just now hadn't dissipated yet, I had truly forgotten about it, so I let out a rare burst of anger:

"Xiangxiang, let's give the master one more draw. Now it's three times in total. Should we wait until tonight?"

Song Anning thought about it and felt that he would have better luck at night. Now, he prepared to have dinner and go to Zuixianju to deliver a batch of goods.

Since we have to discuss the follow-up matters, we have to be sincere. It has been several days since Manager Zhao came to sign the contract in person.

It can be said that everyone in Zuixianju is waiting for Song Anning's goods to help them out in an emergency, so there should still be a spirit of contract.

Zhang cooked some lean meat porridge and asked Song Dashan to go out and buy a piece of braised beef and a piece of tofu.

If it were just the two of them, they would just eat a handful of multi-grain buns with pickles. But now, Zhang didn't want Aning to eat that either, so she prepared it specially.

While eating, the two elders kept piling meat into Song An Ning's bowl, but Song An Ning took it back, and this went on and on, causing the three of them to burst into laughter.

Song Juan'er looked much better, and Aning also dug up ginseng. The two elders were very happy from the bottom of their hearts.

"Grandma, are you really done with the preserved egg business? If you could stabilize it, you'd be able to make a few taels of silver a month. It's easy to make and doesn't take much effort."

Song Anning thought that Song Juan'er would not be able to return to the village for a while in this condition. No matter whether she had really changed or not, the preserved egg business had to be continued for as long as possible.

"I was thinking that if your aunt got well, I'd be afraid she'd ruin the business. I know my child well, so I'm better off just in case. You worked so hard to figure this out, and I don't want to..."

At this moment, a voice from inside the house interrupted Zhang's words.

"Mom, you, you go about your business. I won't go back, and I won't ask..."

"..."

Song Anning buried her head and ate her food in big mouthfuls, minimizing her presence. Fortunately, she didn't say anything to her aunt, otherwise, it would have been extremely embarrassing.

"Hey, Juan'er, why are you awake? I don't mean any harm. It's just that Aning finally got her business back, and I feel uneasy."

Zhang was both embarrassed and annoyed. She was anxious for her daughter to recover and to prevent her from making any more mistakes because of her words. She was also annoyed at her own quick mouth, which she spoke without even looking where she was going.

Song Juan'er was a little excited. She grabbed Zhang's hand and said firmly, "Mom, my brother still needs to study. You should focus on your business and make money. I won't ask anything. Don't worry."

Now, she felt nothing but guilt. She had spent a lot of money on her parents by doing this. Based on her original personality, she might cause trouble. It was normal for them to think so.

"Auntie, just rest and recuperate. We have so many people in our family, and we'll take care of the money. Grandma, go back and pickle the duck eggs. Earning more money is the right thing to do."

Song An Ning filled a small bowl of porridge and fed it to Song Juan'er spoonful by spoonful. She hadn't eaten anything properly in the past few days and was hungry. She ate half a bowl in one breath and leaned against the head of the bed in a daze, not knowing what she was thinking.

But her energy was limited, and after a while, she fell asleep again.

Song An Ning planned to go to Zuixianju, so she told her grandparents and was about to go out.

"Aning, can you do it by yourself? How about Grandpa go with you?"

The town was unsettled, and Song Dashan was worried, so he wanted to follow them. However, he was afraid that his presence would delay their business talks, so he hesitated for a while before speaking.

"Grandpa and Grandma, you two stay here and take good care of my aunt. I'm afraid Wanhetang will have a backup plan. I'm even more worried if Grandma is here alone."

The old woman's mission has been completed. The Song family has been slow to join the game. Judging from Wanhetang's behavior, they must have lost their patience long ago.

When Song An Ning mentioned Wanhetang, a trace of worry appeared on the faces of the two elders. The enemy was in the dark and they were in the light, so they had no choice but to take the fight.

After Song Anning left, Xiangxiang scanned the area but didn't find any suspicious people nearby.

"Master, what do you think Wanhetang will do next? Besides your aunt, they will definitely find other weaknesses to attack."

"There are two possibilities. The first is to force us to submit again and start from the town. For example, the parasite in my aunt's body. They don't have a house in the town, so this is also a breakthrough point."

“The second is to steal peppers from the village, but they don’t know how to cultivate them, and even if they steal them, it takes a long time to cultivate them.

Besides, the recipe can't be stolen, so the possibility is low."

Song Anning was very calm. This was what her mother taught her. When encountering problems, getting angry will only increase the rage, and being impulsive will not solve any problems.

All she had to do was calm herself down, analyze the pros and cons of the whole thing from a God's perspective, and quickly come up with a solution.

If she was right, Wanhetang would soon reveal its cards.

After walking out of the alley, she did not go directly to Zuixianju. Instead, she first rented a warehouse near the pier. After asking around, she found out that there were no short-term rentals here, and the minimum rental period was half a year.

It is called a warehouse, but in fact it is just a large courtyard with several rows of houses built in the courtyard for storing goods.

Five taels of silver a month, half a year's rent plus deposit, a total of thirty taels.

If it were before, Song Anning's heart would probably bleed, but now, hmph! She is a noble woman of 8848, and she doesn't care about these few dozen taels.

With this warehouse, when we deliver goods to Zuixianju in the future, we can just let them come and pick them up directly, which is convenient for everyone.

I signed a contract with the manager of this warehouse and paid the money. He didn't ask any questions and just gave me the key and left. There are too many people coming and going here every day.

Although I was surprised that a little girl in ordinary clothes came alone to rent a house, it was not new to me. As long as I gave her some money, it would be fine.

Song An Ning was the only one left in the yard. He looked around and found that the wall was more than four meters high and there were two teams patrolling outside the wall, so it was relatively safe.

Next, it’s time for shopping in the mall!
