Chapter 7: What to do with the remaining 1.6 million?



After taking a shower that evening, Fengran sat on the bed and began a new round of shopping.

This time it's the daily necessities category.

I bought a large bag of toilet paper, 1,000 rolls, each weighing four pounds, at 20 yuan per roll. The seller also gave me five boxes of facial tissues as a gift. Fengran also ordered another 1,000 boxes of facial tissues, each box containing 40 packs, spending [amount missing] yuan, and the seller gave her ten boxes of face towels as a gift.

A total of 60,000 yuan was gone.

She ordered 500 boxes each of sanitary napkins (day and night use) and overnight pads. After the merchant's discount, another 100,000 yuan was gone. However, the merchant surprisingly gave her a lot of disposable underwear and pregnancy tests as gifts. Fengran initially didn't want them, but then thought, why not take them?

I still need to pay the final payment tomorrow; the total for Taoyuan is 100,000 NTD. The vineyard is [amount missing]. The final payment is still [amount missing].

Feng Ran did the math and realized that money really doesn't last. So far, she'd spent about 700,000 yuan on these things. Her own savings of 100,000 yuan, plus the 100,000 yuan Feng Nan gave her, and the house worth 2.3 million yuan, totaled over 2.5 million yuan. After deducting the expenses, she now had 1.6 million yuan available.

Feng Ran scratched her hair in frustration. Now there was another thing to worry about: she had already negotiated a three-month extension with the landlord for her current apartment. That meant she would have to leave in three months. She needed to plan ahead for where she would live afterward.

It's best to find a house with good security. Otherwise, if bad guys come, she'll be in trouble too.

No! She can hide in a spatial dimension!

"Hahaha... Heaven has its own plan!" Feng Ran became happier and happier as she thought about it.

However, safety protection tools are also essential.

It just so happened that Fengran had seen someone making crossbows while browsing short videos. Fengran secretly contacted that person privately and even added them on WeChat.

[I Was a Pretty Girl: Big Brother, Are You There?]

[Woodworking Machinery Keyboardist: Yes. Beautiful lady, are you sure what you want to do?]

[I'm a Beautiful Girl: Can a crossbow with real shooting power be made?]

[Woodworking Machinery Keyboardist: What are you trying to do?]

[I'm a pretty girl: For self-defense! I live alone. I saw in your previous video that the crossbow you made could pierce a raw egg; I want something even more lethal, preferably big enough to kill someone.]

[Woodworking Machinery Keyboardist: Can't do it. If you ask me, beautiful lady, you should just be a decent human being. Those weapons of mass destruction are beyond the reach of law-abiding citizens like us.]

[I'm a beautiful girl: Pay more.]

[Woodworking Machinery Keyboardist: It really won't work. It's not about the money.]

[I was born a beautiful girl: Double.]

[Woodworking Machinery Keyboardist: It really won't work.]

[I'm a Pretty Girl: Bro, I'll give you a few days to think it over. I've been following your page for a long time. You're trying to earn money to buy medicine for Grandpa, right?]

You're selling a crossbow for 369 on your homepage. After all this time, you've only sold two units, right?

I want a high level of lethality, so I estimate your cost to be 1,000 yuan. I'll double that, let's say 5,000 yuan.

I don't need many, two will suffice, and I also need arrows. However, I need a lot of those. The price is negotiable.

[Woodworking Machinery Keyboardist: Is it really not meant for doing bad things?]

[I'm a pretty girl: Of course! Doing bad things is illegal, okay? I'm a law-abiding citizen. Besides, I'm not a gun, and you can't be a gun.]

[Woodworking Machinery Keyboardist: Who says I can't make guns!]

The other party has withdrawn the conversation.

Feng Ran witnessed the other party send a message and then delete it.

[Woodworking Machinery Keyboardist: I'll think about it.]

[I'm a beautiful girl: I saw my older brother. Why did you delete it so quickly?]

[Woodworking Machinery Keyboardist: I made a typo!]

[I'm a beautiful girl: I saw it.]

[Woodworking Machinery Keyboardist: I really made a typo.]

[I'm a beautiful girl: Big brother, how long does it take you to make a gun?]

[Woodworking Machinery Keyboardist: I don't know, don't talk nonsense!]

[I'm a beautiful girl: Okay, okay, you won't. Then contact me again after you decide to make a crossbow.]

[Woodworking Machinery Keyboardist: Okay. Bye.]

Feng Ran didn't care, but she was certain he would! She wasn't in a hurry; it was normal for him not to admit it now. She'd wait until they were starving and thirsty, then she'd find him and see if he'd still do it!

The next afternoon, as usual, I received the last batch of fruit and chicken. I also paid the final payment. Another batch of packages arrived that day, but I didn't have time to open them and just put them in my space. I plan to open them slowly later.

After eating, I went back to my room and accessed my virtual space. The packages were piled up in one place, forming a small heap.

These are protective supplies I bought before.

The plastic sheet hadn't arrived yet. Feng Ran swirled around in the air, and the seeds he had sown had just sprouted, tiny little green dots.

Feng Ran simply scattered vegetable seeds all over the other areas.

Too lazy to even turn the soil, she scattered all the seeds of the same kind across the ground. A chaotic yet orderly scene.

The grape seedlings were piled up to the side, and Feng Ran was digging holes and planting them late at night in the space.

It was past 3 a.m. when we finally finished planting 100 trees.

They're all planted on a plot of land near the edge. This makes it easier to build grape trellises later, and it won't hinder the use of agricultural machinery for tilling.

So far, one-third of the land has been planted with vegetable and fruit seedlings.

Feng Ran has temporarily settled one matter.

The next morning, after finishing her housework, Feng Ran lay on the sofa and scrolled through her WeChat Moments for a while when she saw Feng Yingying's post.

[The weather is so nice, and the scenery is beautiful too. Love you, Mom. Pictures, pictures, pictures, pictures.]

The post was followed by four pictures, including a photo of the mother and daughter and a Chanel bag that looked expensive.

Feng Ran first gave it a like, then commented, "[Your bag is so pretty, sister.]"

She just wants people to compliment her bag. Why be so subtle about it?
