After my soul traveled to ancient times, I don't want to be cannon fodder

At the same time, all the jade jewelry and jadeite stones in the room she had just collected were instantly reduced to ashes as if their spiritual energy had been absorbed...

Zhong Ning:........

Very good, all the jade in these boxes have been absorbed by the space.

But at the same time, its area has doubled from its original size.

If it was one thousand square meters before, it is now at least two thousand square meters.

Zhong Ning said she could collect some more.

The Qinghe Cui family must have more than just this one warehouse.

Even if the Qinghe Cui family doesn't exist, aren't there still the Xingyang Zheng family, the Fanyang Lu family, the Fujun Xie family, the Jiangling Wu family... and so on?

What she needs to do now is to seek compensation for her mental damages from these aristocratic families...

They plotted against her and arrested the most important people around her, so it was only right that they get some compensation.

Originally, Zhong Ning came here intending to send the heads of the Qinghe Cui family and several others to their deaths, but now she has changed her mind.

She wanted to first take possession of the Qinghe Cui family's thousand-year-old wealth, and then take a look at the character of the other masters in the Cui Mansion.

If it is true that they are selfish and vicious and their genes are passed down, then it is understandable to wipe out their entire family. After all, with these people oppressing them, the people below them will have trouble even surviving.

Just from what they said just now, the harvest this year is poor, the tenants can't eat, but they still have to pay full rent.

He wanted to ask for a rent reduction, but these two people plotted against him. They planned to kill a few of them to warn other tenants.

There are too many people at the bottom of society now, and they don’t want to do it, but there are plenty of people who want to do it.

So they were not afraid of killing people, especially the lives of the tenants. To them, they were not human lives at all, but like chickens, ducks, cows and sheep, which they could slaughter at will.

Ignore the law and disregard life.

This is even more cruel than the modern capitalists who exploit the lower-class labor force.

Zhong Ning recalled two news stories he had read before crossing over. One was about an old woman from the countryside who froze to death while selling vegetables. The other was about a hospital director whose home was searched for over 2 billion yuan.

What a stark contrast, what a ridiculous world.

At that time, in China, there were at least 2000 million people with an average monthly income of less than yuan, but this dean alone was able to embezzle more than billion yuan.

What a terrible number.

Even now, it still feels shocking.

As an ordinary citizen, even though she has traveled back to ancient times, the feeling of powerlessness she once felt when struggling at the bottom of society still makes her feel frightened from time to time.

Now that she heard it with her own ears, how could she calm down after these calculations based on the oppression of the survival of the lower-class people?

After a moment of silence, Zhong Ning left the secret room, returned to the room, and jumped out of the window again.

She moved lightly and avoided the patrolling guards all the way and came to an exquisite mansion. Zhong Ning was curious about who could live in such an exquisite courtyard, and then he heard a shrill scream coming from the room in the courtyard.

Zhong Ning paused for a moment, then immediately leaped towards the source of the sound.

The main hall of the courtyard was brightly lit, with at least six candles used for lighting. There were dim figures in the room, and it could be seen that they were the shadows of a man and a woman, who were intertwined in the room.

In front of the main room door stood two servants. When they heard the movement in the room, they couldn't help but show envious and teasing looks.

"This girl today was the first one I saw. She was wearing a white dress on the street. Her face was white and tender, so beautiful..."

One of the servants whispered, "The young master was shocked at the time and immediately tied the man back..."

Another servant also teased: "You idiot, what white clothes? They are mourning clothes. I heard that she is a young widow whose husband just died..."

"A married woman, no wonder our young master likes her so much..."

"That's right. Ever since the second young master went to Beijing to take the imperial examination, the eldest young master has been unhappy... Now, we have to find some fresh food to make the eldest young master happier...

"That's right. Our eldest young master has always been dissatisfied with the fact that the old master favors the second young master. When the second young master becomes the top scorer in the imperial examination, I'm afraid that the eldest young master will become even more crazy. We two should be more careful in our daily lives..."

"Shh... Keep your voice down, don't let the young master hear..." The two servants leaned against each other and whispered. Zhong Ning's brows were slightly cold, and he flicked out two small stones with his fingers, and pressed the acupoints on the man, freezing him in place.

Afterwards, Zhong Ning jumped down from the roof, opened the window of the main room, and jumped straight in. In the room, he saw a woman in white with her hands tied behind her back with a rope next to the bed frame.

And the so-called young master was currently burying his head in the woman's neck...

The woman bit her lips tightly, tears in her eyes, and her face showed humiliation.

She struggled desperately, but in the end the man came forward and slapped her hard.

Snap!

A slap mark suddenly appeared on the woman's face.

The woman covered her face with her hands in fear, but this only made the man even more excited, and he lowered his head...

The woman turned her head away with a look of despair, her voice shrill and desperate.

At this moment, she only hated herself for being powerless and being humiliated again when her husband had just passed away!

Her body was trembling, her lips were tightly pursed, and her teeth were pressed against the tip of her tongue. Finally, she made up her mind and intended to bite her tongue to commit suicide.

But she saw a black shadow suddenly leap out from the sky right in front of her.

The black shadow wrapped itself tightly, and one could only roughly see that it was a woman's figure.

The black shadow had extremely cold eyes and raised two fingers, shooting a silver needle at her. The man who had brought her countless humiliations seemed to be shot in the back of the neck, and then his eyes rolled back and he fell directly to the ground.

Zhong Ning stepped forward and kicked the man aside.

Then he turned his attention to the tied woman.

The dagger slashed against the rope, and the woman felt her body relax.

At this moment, she finally realized that she was saved, and she immediately knelt on the ground and kowtowed three times to Zhong Ning.

"Thank you, benefactor, thank you, benefactor..."

Zhong Ning turned sideways and did not accept the greeting. Instead, he reached out to the young master who lay dead on the ground.

Tsk, there are quite a few good things.

A ring, a jade pendant, silver bills, gold beans...Finally, a slightly yellowed amulet pendant was found around his neck.

Tsk, this evil person actually gets scared sometimes.

When the woman saw Zhong Ning doing this, she immediately realized that he might be a thief who came to the Cui Mansion to steal...

She is really capable. The Cui Mansion is heavily guarded, yet she can come and go freely.

Not only did she come and go freely and steal with ease, but she also killed her master with a single knife. If she were discovered, the people in the Cui Mansion would certainly not let her go.
