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

In the bedroom.

Zhong Ning was learning about the latest news and current technological development projects in front of the computer. She thought about her previous time at Dayong, when she was very passive in reforms due to her limited abilities and lack of knowledge related to technology.

So she bought some books on science and technology, agriculture and physics from the Internet, such as "The Exploitation of the Works of Nature", "Essential Techniques for the People", "Illustrated Explanation of Military Equipment", "New Book of Jixiao" and other crystallizations of wisdom of ancient Chinese sages.

It’s not that Zhong Ning wanted to watch it, she just couldn’t bear to watch it.

She was just being prepared.

After all, if you can travel through time once, you may be able to travel through time a second time.

If there really is a second time, she doesn't want to be in the same situation as before where she is unprepared and unable to change.

Here, she also asked Zhang Wanting to rent a small warehouse.

In the name of the company, they purchased some food such as oil, salt, sauce, vinegar, rice, flour, potatoes, noodles, eggs, compressed biscuits, dried meat, dried vegetables, etc., and arranged for special personnel to receive them.

At first, Zhang Wanting didn't know what she wanted these things for, but later she heard Zhong Ning say that she just wanted peace of mind.

Zhang Wanting then understood that Zhong Ning was making preparations in advance. If there was a second time travel, these things would definitely come in handy.

Even if the second time travel did not occur, it would be good to prepare some food reserves. What's more, Zhong Ning still has space, and it's empty anyway.

Realizing this, Zhang Wanting ordered people to make careful preparations. After the entire warehouse was filled with these things, she personally took Zhong Ning to the warehouse to receive them.

When she saw with her own eyes that Zhong Ning put all the things into the space with just a wave of his hand, Zhang Wanting shed tears of envy.

At this moment, she missed her planting space terribly.

Although the Inspection Eye is very good, it cannot store physical objects after all, and can only make her a few billion at most.

Zhong Ning suggested that if one had the money, one could actually consider building an underground shelter. She had read the news and knew that the world had been turbulent in recent years and that World War III might break out at any time. If one had an underground shelter, one could hide there if something happened in the future.

Zhang Wanting said that her elder brother had been preparing these things in the past few years, so there was no need to worry too much. Zhong Ning then realized that the rich are the rich, and they always have a sense of crisis much earlier than ordinary people.

"By the way, I recently invested in a new play. The director is called Chen Xun. She called me a few days ago and said she saw the trending search and wanted to invite me to play a role in the play. What do you think?"

Zhong Ning turned his head and looked at Zhang Wanting with a hint of hesitation in his eyes. Then he said, "I don't really want to live in the spotlight, and I have no interest in filming."

"I know, so when she asked me, I refused. But she then asked, could you please go to the crew to guide the martial arts scenes?"

"Of course, they have a martial arts instructor, they just want you to give them some pointers."

"You can see what needs improvement. You don't have to stay on the set all the time. Just go two or three times."

Zhang Wanting stepped forward cautiously, tugged at Zhong Ning's sleeve, and said coquettishly, "Sister, this is my first time investing on my own..."

"Of course you can, but I have a request." Zhong Ning turned around and leaned back on the chair somewhat weakly.

"You said, as long as I can do it..."

"Can you give Fang Ping a chance to audition for this play?" Zhong Ning seemed to be thinking of the scene in the hospital that day, with a look of confusion on his face.

"You wouldn't be thinking of being with Fang Ping..." Zhang Wanting asked tentatively. Could it be that the couple she was supporting was really about to break up?

"No," Zhong Ning sat up, his hands on his knees, his voice a little apologetic. "That day in the hospital, I said a lot of nasty things to him... Now that I think about it, I always feel a little guilty."

"If it's not appropriate, then just pretend I didn't say anything... Wanting, I don't want to put you in a difficult position, but I always feel like I owe you two a lot..." Zhong Ning said this, picking his fingers unconsciously.

Ever since she came to Shanghai, Zhang Wanting had been taking care of her in everything. She said she was to be her bodyguard, but in fact she didn't need to do anything. She just accompanied her every day, occasionally going to the company, occasionally to the villa, and most of the time, she was eating, drinking and having fun.

This day is indeed a happy one.

But she was still receiving a salary from Zhang Wanting, about 100,000 yuan a month. Plus, Zhang's father and elder brother would occasionally give her a red envelope, so the 100,000 yuan monthly salary became insignificant.

In the past few days at the Zhang family villa alone, she has earned several million, and during this period she also transferred two million to her family.

Tell your parents that you have found a good job and helped your boss. This is a bonus given by your boss. You have not done anything illegal.

My parents are ordinary farmers. They were inevitably nervous when they suddenly received so much money. Zhong Ning arranged for them to go to the new district to buy a house in full and then renovate it. There would probably be hundreds of thousands of yuan left, which they could deposit in the bank to earn interest.

My home is in a small county town where housing prices are not high. Although this amount of money is not much, it can at least improve our lives.

She also deposited the remaining money in the bank, so even if she quit her job to travel around the world, she would not be short of money.

But she is a person who cannot sit still, and it is impossible for her to quit her job right after joining.

Then what do you think of Zhang Wanting and the Zhang family?

She could stay and work in the Zhang family to repay Zhang Wanting's protection.

But he always felt a sense of guilt towards Fang Ping.

After all, in ancient times, he was the one who helped him the most.

Even after returning to the modern era, he rushed back as soon as he heard that he was injured, but he didn't expect to be treated so coldly.

Zhang Wanting went forward and hugged Zhong Ning, comforting her, "It's okay, it's just a small matter. I'll call Director Chen right now and ask him to give Fang Ping an audition. I'm an investor after all, so he'll probably give me this little bit of face."

"Thank you! Just say he's my younger brother and give him a chance to audition. If Director Chen doesn't think he's suitable, then don't use him. There's no need to force him in."

"Don't worry, I know what to do!" Zhang Wanting said, and then she contacted Director Chen directly in front of Zhong Ning, telling her that Zhong Ning agreed to be their martial arts instructor, but asked to give her brother an audition opportunity.

Director Chen agreed, but it was just an audition opportunity, and he had the final say on whether I would pass or not.

Even if it doesn't pass, I can just play a small supporting role and have a few lines.

Director Chen, after checking Fang Ping's information, felt that his image and temperament were very suitable for the role of a royal prince in the play.

Afterwards, he contacted Fang Ping's agent directly. The agent invited Fang Ping to audition for the role of the second male lead.
