Space Food Storage: Daily Travel

Chapter 118 My Heart is Jumping

The mother and daughter went to the provincial capital to buy some daily necessities before it got dark.

There is also space for ordinary bowls and chopsticks, wooden basins and barrels, large water tanks, and iron pots, all of which can be used without having to buy them.

Then buy more coarse cloth. Since we promised the workers two sets of clothes every quarter, we should treat them all equally.

They went to the grain store and bought a lot of black rice, black flour, and coarse salt. They asked the waiter to deliver it to the courtyard and put it in the space first.

Cooking for so many people is a real hassle. We could see who among them is good at cooking, or we could cook ourselves.

Finally, the mother and daughter went to the money shop and took out 20 unmarked silver ingots from the space and exchanged them for copper coins or small silver pieces of one or two taels.

Liu Yuhan has already put everything in the space in order.

There were more than a dozen boxes looted from the big bandit’s den. When Liu Yuhan entered the space and opened the boxes that day, he was stunned!

She had put it into the space without even looking at it. She thought it was just ordinary property, but it turned out to be more than just property.

13 boxes in total.

There was a box of gold. A whole box full of gold ingots, so bright that it almost blinded her eyes!

There were also two boxes of silver ingots, neatly stacked. These gold and silver ingots had no printing, so I wondered if they were melted down or what, but they were probably stored there to facilitate trading and circulation.

There were also two boxes of various jewelry. There was gold and silver, some exquisite and some ordinary. On top of the jewelry was a stack of silver notes, all of which were 100 taels each. Liu Yuhan counted them and found that there were a full 3000 taels.

There were three boxes of various silks. Some of the silks shimmered, likely gold and silver silks, with gold and silver threads added to the silk. These were extremely valuable and rare silks.

Three more boxes contained precious Chinese herbal medicines. These included ginseng, ganoderma, cordyceps, saffron, deer antler, gastrodia elata, snow lotus, parsley, and calamus. And this feces, I guess, is ambergris. Ambergris is the dried intestinal secretion of sperm whales, a medicinal herb more precious than gold or silver. There was even bezoar! Bezoar is a rare and life-saving ingredient.

These medicinal herbs are extremely precious and hard to find! These boxes of herbs are even more shocking than those boxes of gold, silver, jewelry, and silk! Oh my God, what has she done wrong? Even the emperor wouldn't be able to possess so many things at once, right?

There was a box dedicated to valuable books and albums, perhaps the surviving masterpieces of a master or a precious collection. At the bottom of the books and paintings were some precious brushes, mostly purple and wolf-hair, and square inkstones, some rosewood and some intricately carved stone with wood grain.

The last box contained various books. Liu Yuhan flipped through them, becoming increasingly alarmed. These must be the "secrets" of various high-ranking officials in the palace! That must be what it meant. She also came across the volume describing the Huo family, but she didn't want to continue browsing. She closed the box, her heart pounding.

She had really stirred up a hornet's nest! Thinking back then, no one must have seen her put these things into the space, otherwise it would have been a real disaster.

Luckily, they were all wearing face coverings, and she even put on makeup to look like a man.

These valuable and rare items were probably just temporarily stored in a bandit's lair, but she accidentally stole them. Perhaps they belonged to a rebellious prince! That's how most novels describe them.

These things must never be taken out, and you must not tell anyone about them. Curiosity killed the cat, and you will definitely look at them again.

Her original intention was just to farm and make a living.

Liu Yuhan felt that she was getting further and further away from being a salted fish.

Now that the family is buying things and applying for so many jobs, it seems to be getting harder and harder to keep a low profile.

There's no point in overthinking. Let's just think about how to deal with these people when we get back tomorrow.

Pharmaceutical and facial mask workshops are best staffed by attentive women and girls. Their family hired 15 girls, barely enough to handle the pharmaceutical production alone. If that didn't work out, they still had 5 people from five other families they brought back.

She has other arrangements for the 15 retired soldiers.

Before leaving, Liu Yuhan asked her father to get more people to build the living quarters first, making at least 20 rooms. Then they would separate the dormitories into male and female, with a wall separating the two.

Just like the facilities of a pig farm, there must be a kitchen and a main room for resting and eating.

Men's and women's shower rooms and toilets are built next to the corresponding men's and women's dormitories.

We still need to continue diverting water, and this project is handed over to Liu Yang.

The composting work on the mountain was almost done. Liu Yang had dug up all the grass nearby. What an honest brother! Liu Yuhan was afraid that he was working too hard, so he asked him to stop for a while.

Don't we have pigs and chickens at home? With so many people, their excrement is ready-made fertilizer. We also save eggshells and rotten vegetable leaves for composting.

I told the old man to work with Li Dazhu and Li Erzhu to quickly make some simple beds, tables, stools, dining tables, etc.

Li Dazhu and Li Erzhu have already recruited a number of apprentices to help. Liu Shihu can also bring his apprentices to help make these urgent items.

Five families were first placed to live at the pig farm.

There are 15 rooms in total, with men, women, and children. They are all married, so just be careful. Each family has two rooms, so five families occupy nine rooms.

The remaining two couples who had previously worked on the chicken farm occupied a total of 11 rooms.

There are still four rooms. The three single men live in one room, and the six people from the pig farm occupy two rooms. There are still two rooms left, so I'll keep them as backup.

Liu Yuhan was planting vegetables in the space tonight. Let's plant more vegetables! With so many mouths to feed, a lot is consumed every day. Some of the mature vegetables are kept for planting. In short, it must be able to cycle continuously.

Although my grandmother has planted a lot of vegetables in the backyard, how can they grow as fast as they can be eaten? The speed in space is faster, and when they are ripe, they can be picked and stored in the warehouse without spoiling.

The tomatoes and watermelons I planted earlier have started to bear fruit, but they are not yet fully ripe.

Thinking that she would be able to eat delicious tomatoes mixed with sugar and frozen watermelon soon, Liu Yuhan felt happy and moved her hands faster.

Plant more winter melon, pumpkin, and loofah, as these vegetables are easy to preserve.

Especially the chayote, plant ten more chayote trees! Haha, one chayote is eaten by the whole village, I will plant ten and I will have enough food for a whole year.
