A group of small vendors beamed with joy. This was the first time they had seen such generous customers in all the time they had been working, and they were determined to make the most of their time to sell their wares.
The important thing is that if Su Ying glances at something, the vendors will definitely come up and talk at length, hoping to close a big order.
Su Ying's first priority was to buy grains, white flour, and coarse grains—things that could fill her stomach. She then spent the rest of her time buying anything else she liked.
In no time, they had spent a lot of money and gold leaves.
I didn't buy anything expensive today, so I don't need the yellow croaker.
Su Ying bought everything she needed, even the cured meat, clearing out all the cured meat from the stall owner's stock.
Perhaps because she ate only vegetables for three years in her previous life, she developed a strong aversion to vegetables after being reborn. Since then, she hasn't eaten a single vegetable.
She ate quite a bit of fruit, which was a good source of Vitamin C, so Su Ying didn't hesitate. Seeing that there were many fruits from Gangcheng, she asked for a stall's worth.
Su Ying dared not be presumptuous again, lest she cause unnecessary trouble, and she didn't want to create any more complications.
Su Ying toned down her purchases considerably, ceasing her buying of food and other necessities. Instead, she leisurely strolled over to a medicine vendor, wandered around his stall for a while, and finally stopped.
There are quite a few vendors in Shanghai that sell goods from Hong Kong, but the quantity is limited, and they sell out on the same day they arrive.
Sometimes, even if you have the money, you can't buy it.
Today, Su Ying was delighted to have the chance to see a drug dealer.
For sprains and bruises, Huo Luo Oil, Wo Hing White Flower Oil, Po Sum On Oil, Tiger Balm, Purple Gromwell Ointment, Tiger Balm...
I bought everything I could.
Seeing that she was a big customer, the small drug dealer introduced all the medicines he had to Su Ying.
Su Ying was generous and took care of his entire stall, then asked in a low voice.
Do you have any cash or tickets on you?
The drug dealer looked completely bewildered when he was suddenly asked if he had any cash or receipts. Was he here to rob him?
Something's not right.
This old lady is very generous; she buys large quantities of things without haggling or haggling. She shouldn't be that kind of person.
"There is some cash and vouchers."
"That makes things easier. So many things and a single gold leaf. I was in such a rush today that I didn't have time to take the money. Give me the tickets and money you have."
The vendor readily agreed, "Deal. As long as the gold leaf is genuine."
"That's good."
Using her crossbody bag as a cover, Su Ying took out a gold leaf from her spatial storage and handed it to the medicine vendor.
The drug dealer took the medicine and put it in his mouth. After confirming its authenticity, he took the money and ran away.
He'd made a profit trading a gold leaf for such a small amount of medicine. If he didn't hurry, the old woman might change her mind, and he'd lose out.
Seeing the small drug dealer chasing her like a dog, Su Ying shook her head helplessly.
Is she really that scary?
So what if she's a little old and a little ugly?
Is it necessary to run faster than a rabbit?
After buying the medicine, seeing that it was almost time, I went to the designated location to pick up the goods, and as soon as I got them, I put them all into my storage space.
Having spent a long time browsing the black market, they were starving. They quickened their pace and headed towards the state-run market, packing up a lot of food and throwing it directly into their spatial storage.
She's not very good at cooking, so she'll have to learn properly when she gets to Willow Village, or she'll starve.
With so many ingredients in the space but no use for them, we have to fend for ourselves.
The food at the state-run restaurant wasn't as bad as she had imagined; it was actually quite delicious.
To avoid suspicion, she bought a lot of food from other state-run restaurants nearby, never looking at the prices, ordering whatever was expensive. Even more outrageous, she ordered all the meat that a state-run restaurant served for the entire day.
After finishing everything, Su Ying looked at the sky. It was already getting dark. She then checked the time on her wrist and saw that it was almost 6:30.
The time has come; I have something important to do tonight.
Su Ying went to investigate the location where the Guangzhou Daily reported the missing cultural relics in her previous life. She immediately hid in her spatial dimension whenever someone passed by.
Upon arriving at the destination, they scouted the area for about half an hour, figuring out the situation near the dock, and then collected everything into the space when the time was right.
It was only 9 p.m., a time when everyone was awake, but the time wasn't right yet. Let's go back to our space and rest for a while, and then act when the time is right.
As soon as midnight struck, Su Ying left the space on time. She sneaked around for a while before she could see the situation clearly. The thief had entered the best period of drowsiness, which was also the best time to make a move.
Su Ying wasted no time, quietly stepping through the gaps and cracks where the thieves were sleeping, holding her breath as she walked this entire distance.
I should have made some sleeping pills. I've been too busy lately, I don't even have any spare time, let alone time to make sleeping pills.
I'll do it when I have time.
Just as she had expected, the thieves were already exhausted. Some had fallen asleep on the ground, some were drooling while hugging the edge of the boat, and some were sleeping soundly while hugging their knives...
Su Ying deliberately avoided them to prevent accidentally stepping on them and alerting them. All of Su Ying's movements were light and airy as she slipped into the cabin. She didn't care what was inside the cabin and put it all into her spatial storage.
Suddenly, footsteps were heard, probably from the night watchman's inspection. Su Ying flashed into the space.
It seems I won't be able to go out tonight; I'll just have to wait for the right opportunity.
Since I can't go back to the guesthouse now, to avoid suspicion, I might as well sleep here tonight and then check out and catch the train.
Anyway, she didn't have to worry about the empty ship sailing away again, so she just fell asleep in the space.
