The True Thousand Gold Possessions of the Myriad Realms Trading System

Seeing that the soldiers had relaxed, Ruan Mianmian breathed a sigh of relief and continued to help Jiang Yingchen choose things.

However, Jiang Yingchen stopped her as soon as she made a move: "Comrade Ruan, that's enough. We can't take too much with us. Besides, we still need to take the rice seeds."

Ruan Mianmian nodded, and after everyone had made their choices, she went to the outdoor store next door and picked out some waterproof and cold-proof items before heading to the agricultural technology extension station at the Northwest Exit.

When deciding how much rice seed to bring, Jiang Yingchen said, "Comrade Ruan, my team consists of either older comrades with poor health or younger comrades. We can't carry too much. If we force them to carry more, it's very likely to be a waste. So, we'll only bring 40 jin of regular rice seeds and 100 jin of super rice seeds."

The rice produced from 40 jin of conventional rice is all kept for seed, while the rice produced from 100 jin of super rice is used for food.

As Ruan Mianmian looked at the types of seeds at the agricultural station, she recalled the information she had gathered, remembering that the Western Army had also taken this route. She nodded and said, "Okay. Leave some for the soldiers who come later. But besides rice seeds, there are also improved potato and corn seeds with higher yields. Should we take some?"

Jiang Yingchen nodded: "In that case, bring 20 jin of each."

After taking the seeds, Ruan Mianmian led everyone around the recycling counter, asking as they walked, "Everyone, think again, what else do we need?"

Without hesitation, Yang Zhichuan said, "We need matches."

“Yes, this is very necessary!” Ruan Mianmian led everyone back to the cashier, but instead of paying immediately, she went to the service center to check for matches and lighters. While checking, she said to Jiang Yingchen and Yang Zhichuan, “Think again, is there anything else we need?”

She seemed flustered, like someone rushing off on a long trip.

However, she thought of the matches for starting a fire and for lighting, and immediately checked the location of the flashlight.

Yang Zhichuan and Jiang Yingchen whispered a few words to each other, and soon Jiang Yingchen spoke up: "Comrade Ruan, we also need cooking oil."

Ruan Mianmian suddenly realized: "Yes, yes, cooking oil is very important."

While they were talking, they found that the matches were in a vintage store, while the lighters, cooking oil, and flashlights were in a supermarket. So they called Jiang Yingchen and went upstairs together to push the shopping carts, and came down with two large shopping carts.

Zhang Ying and Yang Zhichuan were already packing their things when they saw the shopping cart full of matches, lighters, and cooking oil. They were moved: "There's so much. I don't know if we can carry all of it."

Ruan Mianmian smiled and said, "It's alright, take as much as you can. The rest can be left for the next group of soldiers who pass by." After saying that, she ran to the bakery next door, filled up with a lot of bread, and then came out to pay for it together.

This time, she only placed one big bet, returning the rest to Zhang Ying and the others.

Jiang Yingchen approached Ruan Mianmian and asked, "Comrade Ruan, how long will you and this shopping mall stay here?"

"I can only stay for a maximum of six months," Ruan Mianmian said with some guilt.

Previously, she thought that it was impossible to trade here due to the wind and snow, and she couldn't wait to leave. But now that she learned that this was the snow-capped mountain that the Western Expedition needed to cross, she wished she could stay longer until all the soldiers had crossed the snow-capped mountain before leaving.

Unfortunately, it only lasted six months.

Jiang Yingchen smiled and said, "That's enough. I'll have Zhang Ying go back and tell the other comrades to hurry up and take this route to rest and gather some supplies before leaving. But the specifics will depend on the situation. In any case, I'll have them inform you when the last batch of soldiers is withdrawn. I'll be relying on you for the next six months."

“No trouble at all!” Ruan Mianmian immediately shook her head and said, “It’s my pleasure!”

She was certain that once she went back and revealed what had happened, many people would envy her!

Fearing that the snowstorm would intensify as it got late, Jiang Yingchen and Zhang Ying's group did not dare to linger. After packing their belongings, Yang Zhichuan put on an exoskeleton, carried Chen He on his back, and led a group of soldiers to set off.

Ruan Mianmian opened the gate to see them off, and seeing the soldiers carrying heavy loads and helping each other into the wind and snow, she couldn't help but feel worried.

Zhang Ying walked at the very back. She stopped, turned around, and held Ruan Mianmian's hand: "Mianmian, you are a good child. You must take good care of yourself."

Ruan Mianmian's eyes instantly blurred with tears. She nodded repeatedly and squeezed Zhang Ying's hand tightly, saying, "You all must take good care of yourselves."

"We will." After saying that, Zhang Ying smiled slightly at Ruan Mianmian and walked into the snowstorm.

Jiang Yingchen and his group walked forward, while Zhang Ying walked back the way they came.

Ruan Mianmian stood at the door until everyone's figures disappeared into the wind and snow and could no longer be seen, before returning to the mall and closing the door.

She was almost frozen stiff, but more than that, she felt sadness and grief at parting with Zhang Ying and her group.

Today we part ways. She will continue to enjoy a comfortable life in this warm and bright shopping mall, while the departing soldiers will not only continue their 25,000-mile Long March, but in the future, they will also fight for this land that has been nurtured and thrived, spending the best years of their lives amidst gunfire.

They sacrificed their lives so that she and all her contemporaries could live peaceful and happy lives.

It took Ruan Mianmian a full half hour to recover.

In the moment she came to her senses, she exclaimed, "Oh no, I forgot to ask them to send some clothes, shoes, socks, and supplies to Comrade Li and Comrade Hu!"

Ruan Mianmian jumped a few times in frustration, but only a few times, because she quickly realized that even if she could give something away, Jiang Yingchen and his comrades couldn't move it.

Let the next batch of soldiers help carry it over!

Ruan Mianmian went back to KFC to drink hot milk tea, reflecting on the day's events, what was not perfect enough, and how to improve next time.

First, you need to walk around the entire mall and try to find out what kind of shops are there.

Secondly, list out what the soldiers might need—like this time, we forgot to tell the soldiers to bring meat and instant noodles.

Secondly, add tables and chairs at the entrance, and a few sofas for people to lie down on, so that, unlike this time, people don't have to go back into the KFC at the checkout counter to eat after buying their food.

Finally, I can list out the detours that Xipai took, which I found online, and share them with everyone.

She wasn't sure if this last point would be useful, but it should be a good reminder.

As she pondered, she suddenly sat up straight: "Wait a minute, baby. Wasn't this Interdimensional Trading System supposed to let me exchange for high technology to escape the Milky Way? Why am I back in a world that's even more backward than my own?"

She was satisfied to be back in this dimension, but there were still some things she needed to figure out.

The chubby system appeared in front of Ruan Mianmian in an instant, still with that cute, chubby appearance: "The myriad worlds are random. Which world you can go to depends entirely on luck."

The civilization that created the Multiverse Trading System only offered an opportunity; it didn't guarantee ascension.
