It was daytime in the space now, so she could only take out the potions and equipment she had bought and wash them outside.

First pour the needed chemicals into a porcelain basin, take out the film from the camera and expose it, then draw the curtains to make the room a darkroom, put on rubber gloves and develop the photos.

She developed two copies of each frame she took, and after developing, she hung the photos up to dry the moisture on the surface.

Before I knew it, it was almost dark.

Xu Nuannuan will visit her parents again tonight, then make a deal with the black market boss, and finally dig out the treasures at home.

She didn't plan to cook in the evening, so she took out a meat bun from the space. The bun was still steaming hot. After she finished eating one, she took out four more and put them outside to dry.

She didn't go to see her parents until almost midnight. If her parents got hot buns, she would have no way to explain it, after all, a state-owned restaurant couldn't be open that late.

Afterwards, she entered the space again and conducted a small-scale planting experiment using the seeds she bought today.

She planted various seeds in a piece of land of about two square meters, irrigated it with spiritual spring water, and left space for it. After a while, she would observe the germination of the seeds.

It was already past ten o'clock, so Xu Nuannuan changed into dark blue work clothes, locked the door, and quietly went to the cowshed.

I called my parents softly through the window from outside.

Xu Zhenqing and Fang Suyun were still awake.

They had told their daughter yesterday not to come again, but they were still afraid that Xu Nuannuan would come secretly. They were so anxious that they couldn't sleep. They could only sit and wait to see if Xu Nuannuan would come. Sure enough, their daughter came.

"Nuan Nuan."

The couple went to the window together.

Xu Nuannuan took out two meat buns and handed them inside: "Dad, Mom, eat while you talk."

This time, the couple did not hesitate and took the meat buns to eat.

"Nuannuan, it's not that mom and dad don't miss you, but it's really a bit dangerous for you to come here every day."

"Dad, Mom. If I didn't come to see you, I wouldn't be able to sleep or eat well at home. You're worried about my safety, and I'm worried about you too. Don't worry, everything will be fine."

Fang Suyun said, "Nuannuan, I don't know what happened today. They didn't even let your dad and I go out to get criticized. We've been staying here all day. I don't know if we need to go out tomorrow, or if it will continue like this until we're sent down."

"Mom, this is great. I hope it can last until you are sent down."

As expected, it was just like in her previous life. As long as she agreed to the marriage proposed by the Shen family, her parents would not have to suffer in the next few days.

But Shen Changan didn't seem to trust her very much, and she didn't know how long this peace could last.

It is urgent to bring down the Shen family father and son.

"I hope so." Fang Suyun felt very happy to see her daughter. However, when she thought about being sent down to the countryside, she began to worry: "Nuannuan, your father and I don't know where we will be sent down to. If we leave, you will be left here alone. You must take good care of yourself.

As for your grandmother, she's never been fond of me. I know why your aunt and uncle are so close to our family, but I don't really expect them to take care of you. You must take good care of yourself and save the money your parents leave you. Keep it for yourself and don't give it to them.

You're the only one here that worries me. You've never left us since you were little, and you've never suffered any hardship. I don't know how you'll live after we leave here."

As she spoke, tears were already streaming down her face.

Xu Nuannuan reached in and tried to wipe her tears.

"Mom, don't worry. My daughter has grown up. I will be strong and take care of myself."

She couldn't tell them that she had been reborn, nor could she tell them that she would go to the countryside to find them later.

"Dad, Mom, you should take good care of yourselves and don't make me worry."

"Don't worry, we will take care of ourselves."

After they each finished a bun, Xu Nuannuan gave them another one. Fang Suyun only ate half, and Xu Zhenqing ate one and a half.

Xu Nuannuan handed over another cup of spiritual spring water, and after they finished drinking the water, she left.

Next she will go to the woods on the northern outskirts of the city to trade with the black market boss.

She first found a place to enter the space, put on her makeup, and put on a wig.

I looked at the time and saw that there were still more than twenty minutes before the transaction with the other party. Without waiting any longer, I left the space and went directly to the transaction location.

She had only been here for two or three minutes when she heard two very bright beams of light coming from the distance, very much like the headlights of a car. Soon she heard the sound of a car engine, and then a small truck stopped by the side of the road.

The car door opened and the black market boss and the driver jumped out together.

The black market boss held a flashlight and saw Xu Nuannuan: "Little brother, I brought the goods you wanted. Let's go up and check it first."

"it is good."

Xu Nuannuan got on the car with him. There were about a dozen bulging bags of grain piled on the truck bed, as well as a small bag of cotton and a roll of cotton cloth. Xu Nuannuan also had a flashlight and checked the bags of grain one by one. The seeds inside were all what she needed, and the dryness and moisture content were acceptable. The black market boss and the driver unloaded the goods from the car together.

After unloading, it needs to be weighed.

Business requires clarity, and Xu Nuannuan was determined to check the weight of the grain. Before she could even bring up the idea of weighing the grain and cotton, the driver had already unloaded a large wooden scale from the car. This scale could weigh up to 300 kilograms, including kilograms and jins. The scale beam in this picture is a bit thin, so the thicker one wouldn't fit. The picture is for reference only. The black market boss and the driver weighed the grain together, with Xu Nuannuan reading the numbers.

After weighing the grain, it's time to settle the bill.

Xu Nuannuan had already calculated the cost. Black market seed prices were double those at the seed market. Wheat seeds were 0.40 yuan per jin (2,500 jin), which meant 1,000 yuan for 2,500 jin. Other seeds were used in smaller quantities but were more expensive. Rice seeds were 3.20 yuan per jin (300 jin), which meant 960 yuan for 300 jin. Corn seeds were half the size of rice seeds, so 500 jin would cost 800 yuan. Cotton was 2.20 yuan per jin (300 jin), which meant 66 yuan for 30 jin. Cotton cloth was 2.40 yuan per meter (30 feet = 10 meters), which meant 24 yuan for 30 jin.

All the items added up should be worth a total of two thousand eight hundred and fifty dollars. Adding the fifty dollars deposit I had already given to the black market boss, I only need to pay another two thousand eight hundred dollars.

Xu Nuannuan gave them the money and they drove away.

They didn't care how Xu Nuannuan was going to transport the seeds in the middle of the night. They were only responsible for taking the things out and selling them. As for how the buyer would transport the things afterwards, it was entirely the buyer's business and had nothing to do with them.

Xu Nuannuan put all the goods back into the space only after she saw them go far away and could no longer hear the sound of the car engine.

She drank some spiritual spring water to refresh herself, and her next stop was to dig for ancestral treasures.

She came to the ruins of a collapsed building in the western suburbs, where she wanted to dig for treasure and where her family used to live.

After the movement started, they all moved to the city. His father specifically ordered people to tear down all the houses here. Now the ruins are overgrown with weeds and covered with a few pieces of white cloth and white paper money. It looks not only desolate, but also a bit scary and creepy.

Because it is said that after they moved away, this place became haunted. At night, some people even saw ghosts in white clothes floating around. During the day, you can really see white cloth and paper money. Therefore, usually, no matter it is day or night, very few people dare to approach here.

But she knew that it was all her father's fault.

They had to move away from here at the beginning, and the treasures in the cellar could not be taken away at all, so they could only use special methods to "protect" them.

She walked to the bedroom where her parents used to live, and after determining the exact location, she pulled away the broken bricks on top. There was a wooden stake underneath, and under this wooden stake was the cellar where things were hidden.

She took out a shovel from the space and started digging around the wooden stake. Digging is a physical job. After a while, she was sweating all over. She drank some spiritual spring water, rested for a while and continued to work.

About an hour later, she dug all the soil around the wooden stake and took it out, revealing a stone slab underneath. When she lifted the stone slab, the entrance to the cave appeared.

She shone her flashlight inside and saw nothing except the steps leading down.

Go down the stairs to the cellar, which is about ten square meters and contains only some old newspapers that are about to rot and some old clothes.

This is not the place where the treasure is hidden. It is a decoy set up to prevent anyone from discovering it. The real treasure is actually still underneath.

Xu Nuannuan counted the bricks on the wall and pulled out one of them with force. A few seconds later, the other wall automatically separated from the middle, forming a small door one meter wide. Xu Nuannuan went in and followed the steps inside into a secret room. This was where their family hid their treasure.
