This is also the main reason why Chen Shuning did not choose to make money by selling large quantities of grain like other female protagonists in novels. Firstly, the sudden influx of so much grain into the market would easily attract the attention of government departments.

As an ordinary citizen, she lacked the confidence to contend with the powerful state apparatus. After all, no one is a fool. Moreover, considering that our country went from being poor and having nothing to developing advanced weapons such as nuclear missiles, nuclear submarines, and aircraft carriers in just over a century, surpassing those world powers and gaining a voice in the world, she was better off not trying to show off her skills in front of Guan Yu.

It's better to wait patiently until after the reform and opening up, and then make money by buying and selling goods in a stable and secure manner.

Having figured all this out, Chen Shuning finished eating, locked the door, and started preparing the things she would send home the next day.

Hazelnuts, walnuts, and pine nuts were all freshly picked from the trees. Chen Shuning didn't dry them after peeling them, since it was the peak season for these things, and sending them back fresh would avoid arousing suspicion.

Wild kiwifruit, also called round dates here, are fragile and easily crushed. Chen Shuning didn't send many; she packed a small box in a biscuit tin. They weren't even fully ripe yet. After a few days on the train, they should be ready to eat when they arrive in Beijing.

Besides these, Chen Shuning also picked some hawthorns and sent them back to her mother. Her mother loved to eat them. The hawthorns in her space were not only large, but also had a perfect balance of sweet and sour. Chen Shuning often used them to boil water with apples to make a delicious sweet and sour drink that was also good for stimulating the appetite.

After carefully packing the things he had prepared for his home, Chen Shuning began preparing the items he would sell on the black market the next day.

Since I didn't plan to go to the market myself, but wanted to sell directly to the trolls, there wasn't anything special I needed to prepare. I just packed the five watches and seven sets of bed sheets and duvet covers I was going to sell into a bamboo basket, and also prepared the things I would need for makeup tomorrow.

Having prepared everything, Chen Shuning glanced at the time; it was almost ten o'clock. Considering she had to get up early tomorrow, she didn't linger in the space.

Instead, he went straight out of the space, stuffed the prepared honeycomb briquettes into the stove, washed up, and went to sleep.
