Li Xiyue lightly touched her forehead. It was utterly absurd, like a door being opened for something completely outrageous.
The system genuinely has no idea about the situation in this era!
If she really dared to rush up and hug Mu Cangnan on their second meeting, wouldn't Mu Cangnan send her to a mental hospital?!
Ah! I'm drunk!
Suddenly, something else occurred to her.
She asked, "That's not right. How did you know Mu Cangnan was coming back? How did you know he would bring Miss Qiu back? That's a state secret!!"
She has memories of her past life, but the system says that she only triggered the rebirth system after she died. How did the system know that?
The previously gray screen flickered and then went completely black.
Uh! Li Xiyue was speechless. Of all times, the power was completely cut off.
I can only ask the system after it's fully charged.
Her gaze swept across the low-rise bungalows around her; in this era, the only thing you could see in a big city was rows of bungalows.
As long as you have a workplace, the workplace will allocate housing based on the number of people in your family and your technical level within the workplace.
In other words, as long as you have a job, you not only have a secure job for life and a place to live, but you can also receive free medical care!
This has led to a situation where everyone in this era receives a fixed salary, and no one is wealthy.
Unless it's a necessity of life, no one will take money out of their purse strings and spend it lavishly.
Making money is so hard these days!
Her almond-shaped eyes were half-closed; if it were a necessity of life, it could only be food!
Li Xiyue's eyes suddenly lit up. How could she have forgotten that she still had 5 old hens in her space!
Five old hens can also be sold for a sum of money. Although it's not enough to upgrade, we can earn whatever we can first.
Her space was very large. In front of her was a very modern space, and behind this space were green hills and clear waters, like a farm.
After the five chickens were put into the space, the system arranged for them to be placed on the farm.
Where there is grass, there are insects. The five chickens don't need to be fed at all. They just flap their wings and dig for insects in the grass every day, and they're full.
She rode her bicycle into an empty alley, and in the next instant, she and her bicycle were back in her own space.
She ran to the farm looking for chickens, and to her surprise, there were white, round balls on the green grass.
Could it be that white mushrooms have grown in the grass?
She walked over in surprise, reached out and picked it up, and when she did, she couldn't stop smiling.
Haha! It's an egg!
There are only five hens, so how come there are so many eggs?
She called out to the grass, "Coo coo coo! Coo coo coo!"
This is the standard chicken language used for feeding chickens from ancient times to the present.
Chicks can't resist the clucking sound, just like puppies can't resist the sucking sound.
As soon as she finished speaking, a large flock of chickens emerged from the grass and ran towards her.
Li Xiyue was almost stunned. How could five hens have grown into a large flock in just a few days?
The system's voice drifted through the space, "Because this is a space, the efficacy of the Chinese medicine here is dozens of times that of the medicine outside, and the time here is also dozens of times that outside."
The hen laid eggs here, and the eggs quickly hatched into chicks. The chicks grew up and laid more eggs, so you not only have a flock of chickens, but also an endless supply of eggs to collect every day!
Li Xiyue was surprised to hear the system's voice, "Hey! You're back to power! By the way, how did you know Mu Cangnan was supposed to be back?!"
The next instant, she saw the large screen in the space go black again.
Li Xiyue secretly rolled her eyes. How could the power just disappear like that!
However, having eggs and chickens makes things easier; at least she can earn her first pot of gold!
She took a vegetable basket from the shelf of supplies in her space, layering eggs and grass, placing the eggs one by one in the basket.
When she emerged from the space, a large basket full of eggs was strapped to the back of her bicycle.
A floral cloth was placed over the large basket to conceal the eggs inside.
She rode her bicycle to the cooperative.
In the days before individual businesses existed, people could only buy things from cooperatives and general stores.
She parked her bicycle on the only road leading to the cooperative and whispered to the aunties and grandmas passing by, "Aunties, do you want some eggs? No coupons needed, big and fresh! They're from chickens raised by the villagers, and we'll compensate you if they're spoiled!"
The phrase "no ticket required" perfectly captures the nerves of middle-aged women!
Tickets are much harder to get than money!
Sometimes, even if you have money, you don't have a ticket, so you have to buy one on the black market!
The aunties and grandmas immediately surrounded them, asking all at once how much the eggs cost.
Li Xiyue said, "My eggs are big, nine to a pound. They're fifty cents a pound. That's five cents more expensive than what the cooperative sells for!"
After all, her eggs don't require ration coupons, so their selling price should be slightly higher than the cooperative's.
The aunties and grandmas were very satisfied with the price of 50 cents per pound. No coupons were needed, so 5 cents more was no big deal!
They looked at the basket filled with plump, white eggs. The eggs looked fresh and were even bigger than the eggs sold by the cooperative. The best part was that the cooperative promised to compensate them if they were spoiled!
Such good news naturally had to be shared with the neighbors and friends. The aunties and grandmas bought the eggs and quickly went back to tell their neighbors.
More and more people gathered in front of Li Xiyue's bicycle. She originally thought that one basket of eggs would be enough to sell, but unexpectedly, it was not enough at all. She had no choice but to secretly release eggs from her spatial storage into the basket.
Her basket was like a mine; she could never run out of eggs.
Just as she was busy with her work, the system's voice drifted out from the space.
"The police are here! It's illegal to run a private business now. If you get caught, you'll not only be fined and have your illegal gains confiscated, but you'll also be sentenced to prison! Run!!"
Li Xiyue looked up into the distance. Her X-ray vision allowed her to see very far, and she immediately spotted the police officers in uniform riding bicycles towards her!
She quickly told the aunties and older women, "The police are here, I'd better leave now, I'll come back here to sell eggs tomorrow!"
Come back tomorrow to buy more! We'll have eggs and other great stuff, guaranteed to be cheaper than the cooperative!
After she finished speaking, she got on her bicycle and rode away. In this day and age, there are no cameras. As long as she can shake off the people, even the police have nowhere to arrest her!
However, she pedaled her bicycle very fast, and the police officer behind her also pedaled his bicycle very fast!
The system shouted in the space, "Hurry up, hurry up, hurry up! You'll go to jail! You can't let him catch you!"
Li Xiyue said anxiously, "I pedaled the bicycle so fast it flew off the ground, that was the fastest I could go!"
"Wait, weren't you out of power? How come you have power again?"
The police officer shouted, "Stop! Egg seller, you stop right there!!"
