After exploring the area, the two cats went out to search for a while longer, but they didn't find any more caves. Further in was beyond Zhuang Feifei's reach, so they stopped and prepared to go home.

The two little guys were halfway back when Fat Tiger saw the chubby mouse. Since it had already completed the task its owner had given it, it wanted to catch the mouse.

Black Tiger said, "You're just meddling in other people's business. We should go back and tell our master what's going on."

Fat Tiger scratched his fluffy head with his paw: "Since when can cats meddle in other people's business when they're catching mice? Black Tiger, since we've already found out, can't we go back to our master later? Zhuang Feifei won't take the things back in there anytime soon."

"Alright then, it's the middle of the night anyway, and I doubt anyone else will be up the mountain at this hour. Let's go catch some mice before we come down."

"Hehe, let's go."

Cats are nocturnal animals, and this is their most active time. They are not sleepy at all, but rather full of energy.

Black Tiger and Fat Tiger caught two plump mice on the spot, one for each of them. They didn't plan to take them back to trouble Luo Jingyan to cook them, so they ate them right away. After they were full, they ran back to the educated youth settlement.

Luo Jingyan was taking a light nap in the space. When they returned, they walked very quietly, and since cats don't make any noise, they didn't wake Luo Jingyan.

When Luo Jingyan woke up in the morning, they immediately reported the situation to her.

"Master, we found hidden grains, cloth, and dried vegetables in three caves. They might be from Zhuang Feifei's factory there. Master, would you like to take a look?"

Upon hearing Black Tiger's report, Luo Jingyan's spirits lifted.

She stepped out of the space, and it was already broad daylight outside. "I doubt anyone will find those places anytime soon. Let's go check them out tonight."

"good."

The cats are nocturnal. After reporting the situation to Luo Jingyan, Black Tiger went to sleep with Fat Tiger.

After midnight that night, Luo Jingyan climbed over the wall and went outside to the edge of the village. She released Black Tiger and Fat Tiger. Fat Tiger enlarged its body and let Luo Jingyan sit on its back. Together with Black Tiger, they headed up the mountain.

Although the mountain roads were rugged and extremely steep, Pang Hu's every movement, whether walking or running, was very stable. Luo Jingyan felt that sitting on Pang Hu's back was much more stable than walking on the mountain by herself.

They arrived at the first cave. Following the directions of the two cats, Luo Jingyan went to the innermost part of the cave and found supplies piled up inside. She carefully examined the supplies with her flashlight.

These supplies matched Black Tiger's description. Most of them were grain, which looked to weigh tens of thousands of kilograms, along with cloth and dried vegetables. The dried vegetables were all packed in snakeskin bags. Upon opening them, it was impossible to tell the production date. However, Luo Jingyan discovered a package containing small packages of dried seaweed. The small packages and production dates were modern, which strongly suggested that these were goods placed here by a time traveler.

In this world, the only person who possesses space and has modern products within that space is Zhuang Feifei. Considering Zhuang Feifei's recent actions, it can be determined that these are 100% goods that Zhuang Feifei stored here.

The items Zhuang Feifei is releasing now aren't very valuable. Even though she's released some large denomination bills, the quantity is small, only a few in each cave. So, she's probably doing this to test the safety of the caves. Once she's satisfied with the safety of the caves, she'll release more supplies.

Zhuang Feifei's space also contained appliances, seasonings, and side dishes that were not exposed.

"Master, should we take these supplies away?" Black Tiger blinked its bright green cat eyes. The two cats were especially excited when it came to taking away supplies.

It's not just humans who are greedy; kittens are greedy too.

Luo Jingyan shook her head: "Black Tiger, I can confirm that Zhuang Feifei put these things here, but they are not very important. Zhuang Feifei has more advanced items in her space. She used these supplies to test whether anyone would come to steal her supplies. If no one touches these things, she will definitely store more supplies here in the future."

Black Tiger nodded its cat head after hearing Luo Jingyan's words: "Master is right. Then let's not accept these things for the time being. We'll accept them when she stores more and better supplies here."

"Um."

The next day, in order to catch up with Luo Jingyan's house construction progress, Zhuang Feifei also began to work on the foundation of her house.

She found ten bricklayers in the village, while Luo Jingyan only had six. She had four more bricklayers than Luo Jingyan, so she not only wanted to build a better house than Luo Jingyan, but also to build it faster.

Luo Jingyan, however, was completely unaffected by their opinions and continued to build her house as planned, making sure to ensure the quality.

After agreeing on the wages with the workers, she stopped providing them with lunch. Aside from giving them water while they were building the house, she would occasionally bring them apples to eat.

She could just treat them to some apples as a small reward. These days, everyone takes pride in being poor, so she couldn't flaunt her wealth. Besides, it was only right that the workers received wages for their work, and she was already being generous by giving them extra apples.

These six bricklayers had never been treated so well by any employer before, except for receiving their due wages. They felt they had received preferential treatment from Luo Jingyan, and they were all full of energy, determined to build the house well in order to repay their employer.

When Zhuang Feifei saw this, she took advantage of her own spatial advantage, feeling that she was richer and more powerful than Luo Jingyan, and didn't want Luo Jingyan to have an easy time.
