After time travel, share a space with your modern family.
Chapter 111 Expanding Space
When Ruan Mumu and her friends returned to the backyard of the shop after shopping, Li Shu received the news and came to deliver the good news.
"Miss, Miss..." Li Shu's face flushed red with excitement.
"Uncle Li, I'm just a peasant girl. Just call me Mumu, don't call me Miss, it makes me feel uncomfortable," Ruan Mumu corrected as she sat down at the stone table and drank water.
"Hey~ I know. Mumu, I have some good news for you." Li Shu was so excited he almost danced for joy.
"A big customer just came in and ordered 20,000 taels of goods without any haggling, and paid the full amount as a deposit."
Before I could even agree, they'd already tossed me a banknote, saying they'd come back in a couple of days to pick up the goods. Miss, do you think we should take this order?
Upon hearing this, Ruan Mumu was astonished to find such a generous client.
This isn't just spending a fortune; it's spending a whopping ten thousand dollars!
“Uncle Li, don’t worry, I’ll draft a contract for you later. As long as the other party agrees, we can take on this deal.” Ruan Mumu smiled slightly.
Since the other party did not try to lower the price and it was a cash-before-delivery arrangement, as long as the price is not lower than the retail price, there is no need to worry about the supply of goods.
"By the way, Uncle Li, how much available funds do we have right now?" Ruan Mumu asked, remembering something.
After a moment's thought, Li Shu gave a figure: "Including the 20,000 taels of deposit received today, it's about 40,000 taels!"
Ruan Mumu never expected that in just a few days, they would have recovered more than 20,000 taels of silver.
I feel like people in ancient times were really crazy!
That's fine too. It seems that the desire to get rich quickly is still easy to achieve. It's just that this little bit of money isn't even enough to fill the gap between the silkworm's teeth.
Thinking of this, Ruan Mumu remembered something and instructed Li Shu, "Uncle Li, bring me 20,000 taels of silver first. I need it urgently. I'll discuss the contract with you later."
Li Shu didn't ask why. He knew that as a servant, he shouldn't ask too many questions. He hurriedly went to get the silver notes and then went back to work at the shop.
Ruan Mumu made an excuse that she was too tired and went back to her room to rest.
Chen Donghua went to talk to Ruan Xiaohai. She hadn't seen her second son for several days and was thinking about him.
Jin Hua and her daughter happily went back to their room to admire the things Ruan Mumu had bought for them that day.
Ruan Mumu returned to her room alone, carefully locked the door, and then prepared to lie on the bed to chat with Zi Jingling.
"Dear Mr. Zi, come out quickly, I have something good to tell you." Ruan Mumu thought excitedly, wondering if she could get more rewards this time for taking the initiative to ask it for the system upgrade.
After calling out for a long time, the purple sprite didn't respond at all.
Just as Ruan Mumu was losing patience, the purple elf's voice finally rang out: "Master, did you summon me? You've finally deigned to summon me."
"Mr. Zi, I have a question. Is my space limited to my villa? If I'm willing to pay, could you please move me to another place, or add another place?" Ruan Mumu asked.
"Does the master have some ideas? Are you dissatisfied with the current space?"
"Look! I've been selling too many goods lately, and my older brother and his men are always bringing things to my villa. There's always something coming in but never going out, which is bound to arouse suspicion."
"If my older brother Ruan Haohao can find a warehouse in the city, I can directly access the goods there without arousing suspicion from others due to transporting too much cargo. Do you think that's feasible?" Ruan Mumu explained her idea.
Without hesitation, the purple elf replied, "Of course, ten thousand taels of silver. I'll give you an extra space, and this time your elder brother Ruan Haohao will choose the location. I'll also give you an extra chance to send a message to your elder brother."
Upon hearing the news, Ruan Mumu was so excited that she jumped right out of bed.
"Hurry, hurry, get it arranged for me." Ruan Mumu flicked the silver notes in her hand, and the ten thousand-tael silver notes immediately disappeared.
"Master, advance payment, then the service. Wait for my good news, I'll get to work right away and quickly inform your eldest brother. Once the location is chosen, I'll open the gates for you, and you'll be able to come and go freely there." The purple elf's voice seemed to fade into the distance; after all, it was an intangible creature, and no one could see it.
For some reason, Ruan Mumu felt a faint sense of anticipation.
Is this purple sprite really that powerful?
They actually said they could increase the space just by adding more space.
It's this silver...
It was gone before I even got a chance to put it in my pocket.
In the modern setting, Ruan Haohao had just finished a meeting and returned to his chairman's office, intending to close his eyes and rest for a while.
"Mr. Ruan Haohao, are you available now?"
Ruan Haohao opened his eyes, looked around the office, but didn't see anyone. Thinking he was hallucinating, he closed his eyes again.
"Mr. Ruan Haohao, your sister needs to speak with you." Another emotionless voice echoed in Ruan Haohao's mind.
Ruan Haohao was now truly awake. He heard a voice that sounded like a robot, saying that his sister needed to speak with him.
He was very anxious. Had his sister encountered something serious that she couldn't handle? Otherwise, why would his sister, who never sent him a letter, send him one?
"Who are you? Are you a human or a ghost? How do you know about my sister?" Ruan Haohao asked anxiously.
He was very anxious and worried that his sister might have encountered some danger.
"Mr. Ruan, don't worry, your sister is alright." As if hearing Ruan Haohao's inner thoughts, the Purple Elf first calmed him down.
After hearing that his sister was safe and sound, Ruan Haohao's anxious heart finally calmed down a bit, but he still couldn't help feeling a little nervous when he thought about how his sister had come to find him.
He quickly pressed on, "So, who exactly are you? Can you tell me what my sister wants with me?"
The purple elf seemed somewhat absent-minded, and casually replied, "I am Ruan Mumu's space manager—the purple elf. She hopes to expand the space."
We would also appreciate it if you could find a warehouse as soon as possible to provide her with various supplies, and also to store your own items.
My master is concerned that your large shipment of goods to the villa might arouse suspicion, so he requests a completely new storage location.
Upon hearing this, Ruan Haohao couldn't help but feel puzzled: Such a thing actually exists? Can a spatial ability be applied for at will? This is truly unbelievable!
As if hearing Ruan Haohao's thoughts, the purple elf responded, "Mr. Ruan, anything is possible. My master has already paid the money in advance, and as long as the location is confirmed, it can be activated immediately."
Once you've found a suitable location, simply repeat "the warehouse is ready" three times in your mind, and I can then officially open the storage and retrieval channel for my master.
Once activated, she can store and retrieve goods at the warehouse you choose at any time.
Ruan Haohao was inwardly surprised. He hadn't realized that money could create new spaces; this was beyond his comprehension. "Butler, how big does this warehouse need to be? How much silver did my sister pay?"
The purple elf replied, "You can find any size place you like, as long as it's suitable. The activation fee is exactly ten thousand taels of silver."
Then the purple elf added, "Just a friendly reminder, my master might be planning to open a women's products store soon, so please stock up on goods, especially items for women to use during their menstrual period."
Upon hearing Zi Jingling's words, Ruan Haohao repeatedly expressed his gratitude, saying directly, "Thank you, Butler Zi, thank you!"
"Honey, who are you talking to?" Liao Jiaqi pushed open the door and walked in. She had heard people whispering inside the room from outside the door and thought Ruan Haohao was talking to a client.
Just now, when she arrived at the door, the secretary told her that Chairman Ruan was resting in his office and that she could go straight in.
"Qiqi, you've come at the right time. I need to talk to you." Ruan Haohao stepped forward to greet Liao Jiaqi and closed the door behind him.
"Honey, what's wrong?" Liao Jiaqi looked at Ruan Haohao's cautious expression and knew that things might not be simple.
Ruan Haohao pulled Liao Jiaqi to sit down on the sofa and said in a low voice, "Qiqi, just now there was someone who claimed to be Mumu's space housekeeper elf, ah, no, it wasn't a person, it was just an invisible voice."
We used to keep storing the things Mumu wanted at the old house in the countryside, right? It's not common for big trucks to come into the village. We often brought things back, and then the things would disappear, which would easily arouse suspicion from the neighbors.
The elf butler said Mumu could buy a space from it for ten thousand taels of silver, the kind where Mumu could access things anytime. Before, Mumu could only access things in the old house!
Liao Jiaqi found this idea very novel; could space be bought?
However, I heard that moving things to a different place is indeed a good idea.
Liao Jiaqi asked, "Honey, when are we going to set off to look for the warehouse? I bet Mumu is really anxious! Otherwise, she wouldn't have sent that butler elf to notify you."
Seeing his wife's anxious expression, Ruan Haohao felt a sense of comfort.
Liao Jiaqi has been married into the Ruan family for three years. She cares for and loves his younger siblings as if they were her own. He is very grateful to her, and it is because of this that the family is harmonious.
"No rush. A couple of days ago, I asked Secretary Liu to find someone to look after a warehouse. It was originally intended to store things that Mu Mu needs, but I didn't expect it to come in handy so soon," Ruan Haohao said with a smile.
Liao Jiaqi was delighted to hear that everything was prepared.
"Qiqi, the housekeeper just mentioned that Mumu is planning to open a women's products store, especially items used during menstruation. We should stock up on these."
For those things you and Mom prepared before, see if you can contact a supplier, someone who can provide them on a long-term basis.
"While you're at it, take a look at some other related products, basically any household items you might need." Ruan Haohao said, recounting the task the Purple Elf had just assigned him.
He guessed that this must be Mumu's idea too! These things are worthless in modern times, but in ancient times, such things were valued for their rarity, and the ladies of wealthy families would definitely be willing to spend this money.
He felt that as the eldest brother, he should help her if he could, especially knowing that his younger sister had a hard time living in ancient times. He felt that as the eldest brother, he should help her even more.
The jade pendant that Ruan Mumu gave them last time has been sent for appraisal. Although it cannot be determined which dynasty it belongs to, the value of this jade pendant is estimated to be at least 20 million.
When they first heard the news, the whole family was shocked.
I never imagined that such a small jade pendant could be so valuable.
"Qiqi, thank you for your hard work. You've really gone to great lengths for the Ruan family." Ruan Haohao patted her head, cherishing the opportunity to meet, know, and love such a sweetheart.
Liao Jiaqi blushed instantly as her husband showered her with affection.
"Honey, what are you saying? Now that I've married you, we're family. Let's go back to the village and tell Mom and Dad the good news," Liao Jiaqi said happily.
The two drove back to their country villa.
"Dad, Mom, good news, good news!" Ruan Haohao helped Liao Jiaqi through the gate and saw that his parents had already put the food on the table and were waiting for them to arrive.
"What good news?" Zhang Yufang asked with a smile as she looked at her daughter-in-law's pregnant belly.
"Mom, it's not about Qiqi. Qiqi is perfectly fine, don't worry. I want to talk about Mumu." Ruan Haohao said as he helped his wife sit down before sitting down himself.
"What's the happy thing?" Nguyen Van Phu asked curiously.
"Mumu's system has opened up new possibilities," Ruan Haohao said in a low voice.
This news stunned Ruan Wanfu and Zhang Yufang.
"Is it really that amazing? Can space really expand into new spaces?" Ruan Wanfu was eager to know how this was possible.
"It was the Purple Elf who notified me, asking me to find a place for Mumu to use as a warehouse for storing supplies."
"From now on, this place will be used specifically to store the supplies that Mumu needs, and we won't have to bring them back here anymore!" Ruan Haohao announced excitedly.
"Really? That means I won't have to worry about being questioned by my neighbors anymore." Zhang Yufang couldn't hide her smile after hearing the news.
These days, I can only call a car to deliver the supplies my daughter needs after nightfall, for fear that I won't be able to explain it if others ask.
After all, nobody wants their family affairs to be used as gossip.
"And the jade pendant that Mumu brought back, after appraisal, is worth at least 20 million yuan." Ruan Haohao announced another bombshell with a smile.
"So many?" Ruan Wanfu couldn't believe it either. This small jade pendant, although it was a piece of warm jade, was actually quite valuable.
"Mom and Dad, you don't need to worry too much anymore. Besides working hard, I will also do my best to help Mumu. You can relax and enjoy your retirement!" Ruan Haohao said firmly to his parents.
