As long as her family is together, she is not afraid of anything!
After briefly explaining the tropes of time-travel novels to her parents, Xia Ning immediately asked, "Have you ever had a fever, an extra mole that, when pressed, grants you a personal space, a spiritual spring, or the ability to read minds?"
My mother looked down at her hands and then shook her head helplessly.
Dad touched his not-so-thick hair and sighed, "I feel like my hairline has receded a little further."
Xia Ning looked at her father's head and felt relieved that the baldness gene was passed down to sons but not daughters!
The mother watched the father and daughter making faces at each other and felt an urge to grab them. What kind of time is this to be acting silly?
Noticing her mother's unfriendly gaze, Xia Ning quickly confessed, "Generally speaking, people who transmigrate have cheat codes, or they might be triggered after transmigrating. I have a personal space where I can store supplies."
Without waiting for her parents to ask, she immediately performed a magic trick.
"Change!"
The sofa is gone.
"Change again!"
The sofa was returned to its original position.
Dad and Mom were surprised for a moment, but then they accepted it. They didn't read many online novels, but they had watched fantasy and science fiction TV series before. Since they were going to time travel, having some special abilities wasn't a big deal.
only……
Dad pondered, "Do you have to shout every time you use it? Having special abilities requires even more caution; you must never let outsiders know."
“No, that’s not it,” Xia Ning blinked innocently. “It was just my first time giving a presentation, and I was just setting the mood.”
"..."
The mother took a deep breath; she hadn't hit the child for two minutes.
"Woof woof!"
The Samoyed, unaware of what was happening, tilted its fluffy head, looking completely bewildered.
Mom pinched its cheek: "Our little sister is the best. She's Mom's little darling, isn't she?"
Sister: Woof!
Xia Ning: Motherly love has ultimately gone bad!
-
After several tests, Xia Ning gained a basic understanding of the space's functions.
The space is estimated to be 100 square meters in size and 3 meters high. Time is frozen inside, so it has a preservation function, but living things cannot be put inside.
As their family's only source of wealth, Xia Ning dared not complain about the space anymore. She kept affirming, "It's good enough, it's good enough, it's better than 0.1 cubic meters of space."
Mother Xia, too lazy to listen to her daughter's nonsense, immediately made a final decision: "Use all available funds in the house to purchase supplies. Xiao Ning, you make a list so we can check for any omissions later. I'll go to the wholesale market now to buy rice, flour, oil, and salt. Lao Tian, you should sell the car and the shop as soon as possible to get cash."
Upon hearing her mother's words, Xia Ning immediately felt reassured and calmed down.
Her parents hurriedly put on their coats and left. Xia Ning secretly told herself not to rush. Sharpening the axe before chopping wood is never a bad idea. She first copied down the national guidelines for stockpiling, and then opened two novels about stockpiling to fill in any gaps in her knowledge.
Xia Ning wrote "food", "medical supplies", "daily necessities" and "survival tools" on the first four pages of her notebook, buying the most basic items and then adding everything else she could think of.
These past few days, the family of three has been so busy they haven't had a moment to spare. Even the little sister, who loves going out for walks, has become quiet, lying on the sofa watching her owners come and go.
Mr. Xia sold his newly purchased car, his old house in his hometown, and the shop he had run for several years, totaling more than 6.5 million yuan. Because he was in a hurry to get rid of the goods, he offered very low prices and only accepted cash. Many friends saw this and asked him if something had happened to his family and if he needed to borrow money.
Xia Ning's maternal grandparents favored boys over girls. Ever since Xia's mother stopped being a doting father to her brother, she has cut off ties with the family. Her paternal grandparents passed away one after the other two years ago, and their closest relatives are now only her uncle's family.
Xia's father made a special call to his eldest brother, earnestly urging him to drink less, lose his temper less, and live a good life. The other man was very worried, thinking that his sister had some incurable disease. He was so frightened that he transferred all of his 50,000 yuan savings that day, telling Xia's father not to give up on treatment.
Xia's father: "..."
What kind of mess is this?!
When Xia's mother found out, the couple sat facing each other for a long time. In the end, they did not refuse the other party's kindness. Facing the unknown future, every extra penny meant more confidence, and they dared not gamble.
If they come back, I will repay my elder brother double. If they don't come back... then this house will be left to my elder brother as an inheritance.
Xia's father rented a small warehouse to receive goods. Xia Ning worked as a receiving clerk during the day and stayed up late at night downloading anime, novels, and movies. As a seasoned homebody, she was not afraid of being locked up at home, but she was afraid of not having any spiritual nourishment.
A few million may seem like a lot, but in reality, it's spent like water, and you never feel like you have enough no matter how much you buy.
When I used to read novels, I always felt that there were billions of resources all the time. Now, Xia Ning wishes she could have hundreds of billions.
In the blink of an eye, a week has passed.
To make things easier to access, Xia Ning spent a lot of time planning and taking stock of the space's resources.

Food items: 200 bags (10KG) of rice; 200 barrels (5L) of cooking oil; 50 boxes of seasonings; 50 boxes of compressed biscuits; 50 boxes of canned food; 50 boxes of instant noodles; 20 large water tanks; 50 boxes of mineral water; 100 cups of milk tea; 10 boxes of snacks; large quantities of fresh vegetables, chicken, duck, fish, and meat; 500 steamed buns…
