Lin Zaiqing gasped when she saw the pricing. She had exchanged a bunch of plants from the original plane for only fifty yuan's worth of salt. She really didn't understand how the system priced things.

Is it based on how precious the traded item is to the plane?

If she couldn't figure it out, she stopped thinking about it. Lin Zaiqing took a taxi with Xiaohuangyu to the city to exchange money and then do some shopping.

After agreeing on a time, Shu Ran exited the chat interface.

I picked out a few more items to put on the shelves and then left them there.

The next afternoon, Shu Ran arrived at Lin Zaiqing's shop as promised.

Toilet paper, soap, hand soap, wigs, cat food, pure cotton fabric, various medicines, fruits, etc., were put on the shelves one by one, and Shu Ran took pictures of them one by one.

Apart from the slightly higher price of medicines, the other prices were not high, and Shu Ran, who had gold coins in hand, had more than enough funds.

Shu Ran wanted to buy some books to refer to the events of the 20th century, but because the development of the two worlds was similar, the system judged her to be illegally obtaining information and gave her a warning.

Once more than three warnings are received, the "World Trading System" will be unbound, and everything obtained through it will be taken back. Anything that cannot be taken back will be compensated in other ways.

Alright! Shu Ran behaved herself and dared not cross the system's red line again.

The shopkeeper in the Magic Dimension has not been online, Shu Ran's message has not been replied to, and the items in the trading area have been sold out and have not been restocked.

Having finally found someone she could talk to without reservation, Shu Ran also successfully made friends with the other two shop owners, occasionally making transactions to enrich the space's inventory.

Shu Ran opened a jar for each of the three animals and leaned back on the chaise lounge, talking to someone in front of her.

"It's the kind of dried fish made from small fish, without any seasoning, that cats can eat."

The gourmet leaned against her big cat, Lamea, and pondered for a moment before saying, "I know a type of fish that's perfect for making the dried fish you mentioned. It's delicious and boneless, but it's too small to be very satisfying to eat, so it's not very popular. If you'd like to try it, I'll give it a go later."

Shu Ran smiled sheepishly: "It's not that I want to eat it, it's that my cat wants to eat it. The small size is just right, since the pets around here aren't very big."

Looking at the three tiny, furry creatures, the foodie felt that her own Lamea didn't taste so good anymore. There was nothing she could do; the animals here were all very large, even the petite Lamea was as tall as a person (over 2 meters).

The food critic watched with envy as the three tiny, furry creatures across from him ate without even looking up, and felt like crying.

After acquiring life-sustaining ingredients from other dimensions, they could only last for a month. Not wanting to lose the feelings she had just begun to develop, she simply didn't bring up the idea of ​​trading.

Opening the "Suiyuan Cookbook," Shu Ran found the recipe for dried anchovies and showed it to the food critic: "Look, this is a recipe left to me by an elder. The dried anchovies made with it are especially delicious. Want to trade? I'll give you the recipe, and you give me some of the finished products."

The food critic stared at the pile of mosaics on the book opposite him, somewhat speechless. Was this system afraid of under-collecting taxes?

However, the food critics were also quite interested in the recipes that Shu Ran presented. People from their dimension valued food the most and loved to study everything related to food.

“Change it! I can cook you a different meal every day for a month. With my skills, I can make at least 100 meals a day. Don’t worry, I’ll make you the deluxe version.”

This time, Shu Ran hesitated a bit, feeling that she was getting a better deal, since the gourmet's boxed lunch was much tastier than Chef Guo's: "The value difference is too great, it seems like the transaction can't go through!"

One hundred servings a day, that's three thousand servings a month. At that rate, she could eat for almost ten years!

Having understood Shu Ran's meaning, the gourmet smiled: "Don't underestimate this recipe; it's the culmination of wisdom from another dimension. I've hit the jackpot! Being able to access different knowledge, even if only a little bit is useful, will benefit my culinary skills!"

The deal was struck, and the gourmet generously took on the tax payment as usual. The copied recipe was traded to the gourmet first, and with the system's witness, the gourmet settled the payment in installments over one month.

With March more than halfway through, Doris's Alchemy Shop, which had been quiet for over a month, has finally released new items!

It was the same three items as before, with only one of each. Now that she was rich, Shu Ran was quick-witted and swiftly swept the shop clean.

The tiny bottle contained only ten milliliters of something, yet it cost her gold coins. Although she didn't know what it was for, she decided to hoard it!

She can't use the gold coins to upgrade, so she might as well spend them!

No one answered her message. Shu Ran looked at the empty Doris Shop, which had fallen silent again. She was a little puzzled, but she didn't have time to care.

Starting in March, Suzhou was filled with unease, and the Qian family also made some unusual moves.

Shu Ran suppressed her excitement and inquired about what was happening outside.

Shu Ran couldn't manage the few people left in the courtyard. She distributed some reward money during the New Year as a token of her appreciation. She gave Xiao Cao a handwritten copy of "The Cookbook of Fate," but not Xiao Hua.

She didn't run away when her backer fell from grace, so she can't let people down!

According to the original owner's memories, by May at the latest, or possibly even by the end of April, Qian Chengji would be leaving with his mother, his true love, and their child.

Shu Ran was making preparations in secret, but there wasn't really anything to prepare.

Time flies, and at the end of April, it was the anniversary of Qian Huaizhang's death.

Qian Chengji held a family banquet and instructed the kitchen to add dishes for the servants.

During the meal, Shu Ran observed the dining situation discreetly, only daring to eat the same dishes as them, for fear that she might be drugged without realizing it.

After the meal, a small bowl of sweet soup was served.

Shu Ran frowned slightly, but quickly relaxed her grip.

She noticed that neither Qian Chengji nor the old lady and the third concubine drank the sweet soup.

He pretended to "drink" a few sips and then moved into the space.

In the stillness of the night, Shu Ran changed her clothes and packed everything she could carry from her yard into her spatial storage.

Ignoring the unconscious Cuizhi and the others, Shu Ran put on her invisibility cloak, changed into her hovering shoes, and left the courtyard.

I packed everything a while ago; everything I could take was already boxed up. I'm just waiting for tonight's ship so I can load it and leave.

What couldn't be taken was moved to a secret underground vault. The mechanism was very complicated. Shu Ran "floated" along and quietly followed behind Qian Chengji, watching him direct people to move the things inside.

Large, valuable furniture and ornaments, uneaten food and other items that couldn't be taken with them, along with dozens of mahogany chests, filled the basement.

With the authorities in place, no one could get in, so Qian Chengji felt very reassured.
