Chapter 5 Finding Great Items



That sounds nice, but Xie Yan can only listen to it and let it go. He can't even find a job now, let alone in the future. Jobs will only become more sought after. Saying he can come back later is just a comforting thought.

Only a fool would believe that!

Oh! I forgot, the college entrance exam can be reinstated!

But only Xie Yan knows this!

Others didn't know, they all believed that going to the countryside meant never being able to return to the city!

Xie Yan didn't bother to point out the obvious comforting words about being able to return to the city later. He knew that five hundred yuan was Xie Daguo's bottom line, and anything more was absolutely impossible.

He should know when to quit while he's ahead. What if things get too ugly and the other party doesn't even give him the five hundred yuan anymore?

I could only nod in agreement.

The next morning, Xie Yan saw Chen Guihua as soon as he got up.

When Chen Guihua saw Xie Yan, she walked over and handed him an undergarment. "Yan'er, I've sewed pockets with zippers onto all your undergarments. Keep your money close to your body. Be sure to stay alert on the train and don't fall into a deep sleep. When you do sleep, make sure you sleep face down, okay?"

Xie Yan took the clothes, nodded to indicate that he understood, and seeing the bloodshot in Chen Guihua's eyes, he realized that Chen Guihua had stayed up all night sealing the bag for him.

He opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but didn't know what to say, and in the end, he was left with only silence!

The Xie family was unusually quiet that morning. After lunch, Xie Yan took the initiative to go to the street office and register for the rural assignment.

I let out a long sigh as I left the neighborhood office!

This piece, called the fate of going to the countryside, has been completely placed. The next seven years will be spent in the Northwest. Just thinking about Xie Yan makes me scared.

How melancholy!

When he read novels before, those time-traveling heroines could live a wonderful life in the countryside, making it seem like going to the countryside was like playing a game. Not only was it simple, but they could also eat and drink well!

But Xie Yan, who was born in the countryside, knows very well what the countryside is like! He knows what kind of life farmers lead: "facing the loess soil with their backs to the sky, with endless work to do!"

He has absolutely no idea whether he can survive in the countryside for more than seven years!

He's not the kind of person who's strong and hardworking!

Walking on the street, looking around the city, it still looks gray and gloomy, showing no trace of the bustling scene of a big city, political center, and capital in my previous life.

But Xie Yan knew the general direction of things. Thinking of the boxes of small yellow croakers in his space, he encouraged himself, "It's only seven years, right? It's easy if I just persevere. When I come back, I'll definitely buy a few houses here. Whether I get compensation for demolition or rent them out, I'll make sure I have a good life in the future. I'm sure I can stick it out."

Speaking of these boxes of small yellow croakers, it was a blessing in disguise, all because of this trip to the countryside.

Oh! I almost forgot, Xie Yan has a personal space, which he discovered by accident when he was a child. It's the kind of perk space that's common in novels when you're a transmigrator. But Xie Yan's is completely different from others'. It's just an ordinary space with nothing extra on it. Its only purpose is to store things. Time inside is frozen. What you put in is what you come out.

Xie Yan was able to go in by himself. He looked around and saw that it was quite large. He couldn't walk to the end on his own, and he couldn't tell how big it was.

It's completely bare inside, with nothing at all. You can't plant anything there, and there's no spiritual spring. Over the years, its only purpose has been for Xie Yanyan to secretly put some books inside.

Knowing the future course of events and aware that some books would be destroyed, he bought up any valuable books he could get his hands on and secretly placed them in his spatial storage.

So over the years, Xie Yan has used all of her meager allowance to buy books.

They were truly destitute; there wasn't even a spare steamed bun in the space.

Knowing he was going to the countryside, he wandered around, hoping to find out if he had any luck. After all, he now had a space, and maybe he was destined to be a protagonist and could find out about a job.

The result was obvious: he was overthinking things; good luck didn't come his way, and he wasn't the main character.

Xie Yan wasn't too discouraged. He understood that being able to reincarnate with his memories was already a rare thing in this world, and he was very lucky. Not to mention that he also had a space, although it didn't seem to have any use at the moment, it was something he had longed for in his previous life!

One shouldn't be too greedy! Know when to stop!

In her past life, every time she moved or went back to her hometown, she carried big bags and small packages, which was exhausting. Xie Yan fantasized about how wonderful it would be if she had her own private space!

You can put everything in there and feel so relaxed!

Now his wish has finally come true. Although it may not seem to have any effect at the moment, he believes it will definitely play a big role in the future.

And here we are, the time for it to take effect has come!

Once, he was tired from walking to the other side of the street. Taking advantage of the fact that it wasn't completely dark yet and that he was a boy, he took a shortcut and walked through a dilapidated courtyard.

This large courtyard used to be the residence of a high-ranking spy. It was later discovered, and the place was ransacked. A lot of things were found, and many people died.

During that period, the capital was in a state of high alert. People would avoid this place from a distance, afraid of getting involved with this family. Even after the matter was resolved, no one liked to walk in this direction, and the courtyard remained empty.

Xie Yan was also feeling down today due to various setbacks. She clearly understood that there was no hope of finding a job and knew that she was destined to live in the countryside. She was disheartened!

Disappointment and frustration consumed his mind, and he lost his fear.

After all, someone died here, so people usually avoid this place at banquets!

Xie Yan climbed over the wall and went inside. He was going to leave immediately, but when he saw that the tables and chairs that had been broken earlier were actually made of fine golden sandalwood, he realized that they were really good stuff!

Xie Yan was able to recognize it thanks to his good father, who loved wooden products. He would go and see any house with fine mahogany. One day, he somehow found a small piece of golden nanmu and kept it at home.

He would often talk about how good this wood was and how great that wood was when he had nothing to do!

He would be overjoyed if he saw these golden nanmu trees!

But will Xie Yan give it to him? Of course not, all of these are his, they are all his.

Although the table and chairs are missing arms and legs, aren't the arms and legs still right next to them?

With a little cleaning, it'll be brand new again, right? And the carvings, the craftsmanship—are these fine things just going to gather dust like this after the banquet? Or will someone else use them as fuel for fires later?

Absolutely not! The space is so big, you can never have too much of this stuff. Just put it all into the space.
