Seeing that the previous steps were all in order, Han Yixian continued, "I'll need to trouble Uncle Kun to find me a secluded warehouse to store my supplies. It would be best if it were close to the station or dock so that it would be convenient for me to transport goods."
Zhong Kun nodded and said, "That's no problem. I have a warehouse that I can lend you. Do you have a place to stay? If not, you can stay at my house."
Han Yixian smiled and said, "The accommodations have been arranged. I came with my wife this time. She's had a long and tiring journey and is feeling a bit unwell, so I'll let her rest first. I'll bring her to see you another day."
Upon hearing this, Zhong Kun perked up and exclaimed in surprise, "You're married? With your standards, you definitely wouldn't be interested in an ordinary girl. This niece-in-law must be someone special to catch your eye. I need to meet her properly."
Han Yixian smiled and said, "You will definitely be satisfied when you see it."
Zhong Kun looked at Han Yixian's smug expression and felt that he had changed a lot. He said, "Alright, you should go back and rest too. You must be tired from the train journey."
After Han Yixian finished discussing things with Zhong Kun, he returned to his residence, as he needed to get some rest.
When I entered the bedroom, I saw that my wife was sleeping soundly. Without waking her, I simply lay down next to her and fell asleep.
The next morning, Han Yixian took He Yuhan and some gifts to Zhong Kun's house.
Zhong Kun was delighted to see Han Yixian and his wife visiting his home. Upon seeing He Yuhan, he secretly nodded in approval, praising Han Yixian's impeccable taste. His wife was not only beautiful but also articulate, elegant, and poised in her interactions with others—truly excellent.
Han Yixian took out the tea that He Yuhan had prepared and said, "Uncle Kun, this is the tea that Yuhan prepared for you. I know you love tea. My father treasures this tea, and I'm sure you'll like it."
Zhong Kun was very curious when he heard this, "Oh, your father said it's good? Then I have to try it."
Without any hesitation, he opened a packet of tea leaves and brewed a pot of tea.
Zhong Kun smelled the aroma of tea in the air and said, "This is really good tea. I can tell the quality is excellent just by smelling it before I even taste it."
As he spoke, Zhong Kun took a sip of tea and exclaimed, "This is truly excellent tea! I consider myself to have drunk many fine teas, but this is the best. It's really good. No wonder your father treasures it. Thank you, niece-in-law."
He Yuhan smiled and said, "I'm glad Uncle Kun likes it."
After drinking a cup of tea, Zhong Kun said, "Yi Xian, I've already had the warehouse cleaned. Take the key with you; you can use it anytime. When you leave, I'll have someone show you the way."
My jadeite is also ready. Come with me to take a look in a bit, and we'll discuss the price. Jadeite isn't worth much right now, so I'll price it at 20% below market value.
Upon hearing this, Han Yixian said, "Uncle Kun, you've already helped me a lot, how could I let you suffer a loss? Let's go by the market price. I'm just helping someone else collect these things, so you can calculate it however you want. As for the jade, there's no need to look at it. Don't I trust you? Just transport the jade directly to my warehouse where I store supplies."
Zhong Kun nodded and said, "Alright, then let's go by market price. Don't worry, the jadeite I give you is definitely of very high quality."
Han Yixian said, "You can bring the goods directly to the warehouse tomorrow morning, and then you can move my supplies away. My supplies should arrive tonight."
Zhong Kun nodded and said, "Alright, I'll bring people over tomorrow."
After having lunch at Zhong Kun's house, Han Yixian and He Yuhan were taken to the warehouse where supplies were stored by Zhong Kun's men.
Upon arriving at the warehouse, Han Yi first dismissed the man, then stayed in the warehouse with He Yuhan. After carefully inspecting the warehouse, they left.
Han Yixian had already arranged for two trucks with canopies to provide cover for taking supplies out of the space at night.
After returning to their residence, Han Yixian and He Yuhan stayed there until evening before leaving for a dock area where a truck had been prepared for them.
Han Yixian and He Yuhan each drove a truck to the dock, where there was a ship. People on the ship were carrying sacks and loading them onto the trucks. The sacks were indeed filled with grain, all prepared in advance by Han Yixian and He Yuhan. It was just for show.
Two men drove a truck loaded with several sacks of grain to the warehouse. After opening the warehouse door, the truck drove inside. Once the warehouse door was closed, it was impossible to see inside from the outside.
After locking the warehouse from the inside, the two entered the space, where they discussed how much supplies to put in the warehouse.
Han Yixian said, "Let's put out several tens of tons of rice, several tens of tons of wheat, and some sugar, oil and other non-staple foods as well."
Prices are high in the market right now, especially for food. The jade market is currently at a low point and jade is practically worthless. This is a good time for us.
He Yuhan said, "So that means we can exchange more food and other supplies for jade? That's great. Over there, a whole warehouse of supplies wouldn't even be enough to exchange for a single piece of high-quality jade. Can you imagine how big the price difference is? So we're definitely going to make a killing this time."
Han Yixian sighed, "If we earn more, we'll have more funds to buy equipment. We'll need money for many things in the future."
"That's only because you have this incredible spatial ability; otherwise, we wouldn't have the resources to acquire the equipment and funding."
After discussing what supplies they would bring out in the virtual space, the two made a list, which consisted of supplies that were currently in short supply in the south.
Then the two of them left the space, and He Yuhan took out two truckloads of supplies.
Then the two locked the warehouse door again and went to the dock to load a few more bags of grain. They ran around like this for most of the night before they finished.
After driving the truck for most of the night, the two were hungry. They ate a meal inside the space and then came out to get busy, mainly with He Yuhan. Han Yi first took the list they had made and began to assign places for He Yuhan to put the supplies.
Packed grains and other supplies were neatly stacked in the warehouse, and soon more than half of the warehouse space was occupied.
After putting away all the items on the list, He Yuhan saw that there was still space in the warehouse, so she took out some dry goods from the space.
Han Yixian looked at the warehouse piled high with goods and said, "Let's see what Uncle Kun wants tomorrow. Let's make a deal with Uncle Kun first and see what we can get. Then let's see what kind of supplies Uncle Kun and his men prefer."
He Yuhan nodded and said, "I want to see how well we get what we want. If Uncle Kun has helped us contact a lot of people and we get a lot of jade, jewelry and gold, then we'll give Uncle Kun some more supplies as a reward. We can't let Uncle Kun work for nothing."
"If we solidify this relationship, we might need his help in the future."
