Reborn in a virtual world, before the house was taken away

On her way home from work, Feng Qingqing thought that the Jiang siblings seemed to have had a good harvest recently, and it was time to go and see them.

When we got home that evening, Hu Fangming and I simply steamed some buns made from two kinds of flour and ate them with some pickled vegetables.

After finishing their meal, the two noticed they still had some time, so they decided to go to the house of an older woman that Feng Qingqing knew to exchange some seasonal vegetables. They were tired of eating steamed buns and mixed grain pancakes every day, and the two of them, who weren't short of money, were quite generous when it came to food.

The country lane under the setting sun was still beautiful. The two walked and talked about interesting things in the team. They arrived at Aunt Zheng's house. Because they had arranged it in advance, Aunt Zheng was very hospitable and let them pick the vegetables they liked from the vegetable garden.

It's already October, and there are fewer vegetable varieties compared to summer.

The two of them finally picked out some green beans, cabbage, bok choy, radish greens, and chives, ordering 10 jin of each. Some of these vegetables would need to be pickled briefly so they could be eaten later, while others would need to be eaten as soon as possible.

The two women secretly gave Aunt Zheng a dollar. Although they didn't think it was much, Aunt Zheng was so happy that her wrinkles all bunched up. She said that she would definitely come often in the future, and that they should tell her what she liked to eat, and she would make sure to fatten her up.

"And fair-skinned and chubby"—this phrase left both of them speechless, both amused and exasperated.

These cheap vegetables that every household has can actually be exchanged for 1 yuan. Aunt Zheng really thinks these educated youths are really rich. If she could marry one of them as her daughter-in-law, it would be like bringing home a mountain of gold and silver. But that's just wishful thinking. How could the educated youths possibly want to be with these peasants?

He sighed silently before turning back to his own yard.

When the people in the educated youth compound saw the two girls return with several large bags of vegetables, which they clearly had exchanged from the team members' homes, they all looked at them with envy. After spending some time together, everyone also realized that the two young girls in the educated youth compound who were cooking for themselves were from different backgrounds. One came from a wealthy family, and the other was someone you couldn't afford to offend, but it was certain that they both had money.

But looking at the daily food, it was top-notch, not only in the educated youth compound, but also in the entire brigade.

Some people initially had reservations about the two girls, but after Feng Qingqing revealed her efficiency in working, they all immediately backed down. After all, they didn't want to lose more than they gained. Especially Lü Yulan, who was initially somewhat indignant, but later, whether she came to her senses or learned to hide her feelings, she became very obedient.

But Feng Qingqing is the kind of person who will always seek revenge, but it's not the right time yet.

As night fell and darkness descended, Feng Qingqing glanced at Jiang Yun's empty bed, gave Hu Fangming a brief greeting, telling her not to wait for her that night, and then left.

Feng Qingqing perfectly exemplifies the meaning of "high skill and great courage." Although it was already completely dark outside, she showed no fear and quietly left the educated youth compound all by herself.

She first walked around the 500-meter-long area of ​​the educated youth compound, but found nothing unusual. After standing there for a moment, she walked towards the back of the compound, towards the mountain behind it.

The hillside was pitch black at night, with occasional calls from unknown animals, but Feng Qingqing kept walking uphill.

She had thought about it for a long time before she came. Since they were going to be in the business of reselling, they would need a place like a warehouse. There were too many people in the brigade, so it was obviously not suitable. Moreover, their partners were the few hunter families in the mountains, so the most reasonable and safest place would be some unknown cave in the mountains.

The cave was secluded, rarely visited, and close to the hunters' homes, making it a perfect choice by all accounts.

Feng Qingqing thought back and forth about the terrain of the nearby hillside, and she actually remembered a place that was close to the edge of the deep mountains. Few people usually came here, and the place was close to a cliff. Many years ago, several people died there, and the older generation gradually stopped the younger generation from going in this direction. Gradually, fewer and fewer people came here.

The team members would go up the mountain to pick wild vegetables, fruits, or mushrooms, usually only halfway up the mountain. It was a safe place, and even children could go there. The men would at most go a little further up to cut some branches for winter.

Because of the power pill, Feng Qingqing not only became much stronger, but also became lighter. If she deliberately walked lightly, it would be difficult for others to notice her.

At this moment, Feng Qingqing was just like that. She knew that on the mountain at night, in the dead of night, even the slightest sound could alert people, and she didn't want to make a fuss.

After about ten or twenty minutes, and seeing that she was almost at the cave she needed to go to, Feng Qingqing rested for a while in the distance and adjusted her breathing. She hoped to be in the best condition to face any unexpected events that might occur.

After a short adjustment, Feng Qingqing held her breath, took light steps, and slowly approached the cave.

When she was about 50 meters away from the cave entrance, Feng Qingqing saw some faint light coming from the direction of the entrance. She was overjoyed, knowing that she had found the right place and that this was indeed where the Jiang siblings were active.

Having determined the location, Feng Qingqing became even more cautious. As she approached the cave entrance, she could hear occasional sounds coming from inside.

Listening closely, one could only hear things like "put it here," "buy," and "next time." Taking a few steps closer and listening carefully, one discovered that the siblings had recently been buying not only mountain products and wild game, but also some eggs from a nearby production brigade.

This was their third acquisition. The previous two were mainly with a few hunters in the mountains. But after two such acquisitions, Jiang Yun suggested that since they had finally made it to the city and had established connections with regular buyers on the black market, they should sell more. They had already earned 26 yuan from the previous two acquisitions, and if they acquired more, they would earn even more.

After discussing it, the siblings agreed that the idea was feasible, since this business was a quick way to make money. Even Jiang Hongwei, who had initially joined reluctantly, was full of enthusiasm and eager to get started, let alone the other two.

The things we received today have already been brought here. The siblings are a little worried about storing them here, but there's nothing we can do for now.

After discussing for a while, the siblings gradually ended the conversation, concealed the things inside the cave, and slowly moved towards the cave entrance.

Before they left, Feng Qingqing hurried towards the educated youth settlement. She had to get back before Jiang Yun returned to the settlement; she couldn't alert the enemy before things were settled.

Sure enough, not long after Feng Qingqing returned to the educated youth settlement and lay down after a quick wash, she heard Jiang Yun's footsteps returning.

Feng Qingqing lay on her side, her consciousness returning to her spatial dimension to check on the recent growth of her Chinese herbal seeds. The seeds had already sprouted, and she used her consciousness to water each of the seeds with the spiritual spring water in her spatial dimension, just a little bit on each one.
