Shen Yunsheng was in a particularly good mood. With laying hens, she wouldn't need to buy eggs anymore, and maybe she could even start a poultry farm.
"Tuanzi, you only gave me ten laying hens, isn't that too few? You should at least give me dozens."
Shen Yunsheng spoke excitedly.
“Master, don’t underestimate these laying hens. If you take them back and feed them for half a month, they will start laying eggs. Then you can even have them help you hatch chicks.”
007 muttered to himself, "The laying hens I raise are not the same as ordinary laying hens."
When the level of the space reaches a certain height, these laying hens will mutate and become priceless treasures!
"Fine, ten it is. Just give me some more chicken feed."
For Shen Yunsheng, these laying hens were not only a source of income, but also a source of joy in her life. She imagined how wonderful it would be to eat eggs laid by the chickens she raised herself in the future.
At the same time, she also hopes that these laying hens will grow up healthy and bring her more surprises.
007 smiled slightly, "These laying hens don't need feed and will grow up healthy. Considering your financial difficulties, I'll also give you some daily necessities."
“I still have all the daily necessities I stockpiled before, enough for two years. If you’re going to give me something, give me a few dozen kilograms of salt.” Shen Yunsheng looked at 007 with a worried expression.
She was extremely frustrated because salt in this era was strictly controlled by the imperial court. Regardless of status, each person could only buy one or two ounces of salt per day, and this so-called salt was the kind of coarse salt that had not been refined, containing a large amount of impurities and harmful substances, which would cause great harm to health if consumed for a long time.
Living in this backward ancient world, he would have had a hard time finding refined salt as good as that of later generations.
Shen Yunsheng was well aware of the potential threats these coarse salts posed to his health, but he was helpless. After all, in this era, having salt to eat was already a blessing; there were hardly any other options.
After a moment of contemplation, 007 finally relented, “Master, I can only give you ten catties of salt. If you want to eat refined salt from later generations, you will have to refine coarse salt yourself.”
"Tuanzi, ten jin it is. I will find a way to gather a few jin of coarse salt for experiments. If it can be made into refined salt, it will be a good thing that benefits the country and the people."
A resolute glint flashed in Shen Yunsheng's eyes.
She was well aware of the importance of salt in this era, and having the salt-making technology in her hands provided her with an extra layer of security.
"Master, I look forward to your performance. You can find a few people to buy salt for you now so you can take it back for experiments."
Shen Yunsheng frowned slightly. Even if it's a personal shopper, it's not easy to find one. In this era of salt shortage, unless you have a very close relationship, no one is willing to give up the opportunity to be a personal shopper to someone else.
Suddenly remembering something, 007 smiled and snapped his fingers. "Master, you can go find Steward Zhou. He has a wide network of connections and can help you."
After listening to 007's advice, Shen Yunsheng decided to go find Steward Zhou.
“Hongyu, I have some things to take care of. Go to the street corner and tell my husband that I’ll be home later. If they can’t wait, they can leave earlier.”
Li Hongyu nodded vigorously, indicating that she understood. No sooner had Shen Yunsheng left than she went straight to the lumber shop. She secretly thought that at this time, Xiao Jingchuan was likely still at the lumber shop helping her father resign.
Therefore, she felt that instead of waiting at the street corner, she should head straight to the lumber shop so that she could see him sooner.
...
After Shen Yunsheng and Li Hongyu separated, he bought a large chicken coop and put the laying hens in it.
Just as she was about to pick up the chicken coop to find Xiao Jingchuan, 007 smiled and came out of the space, "By the way, Master, the cabbages I planted for you are ready to be harvested. When do you plan to harvest them?"
Shen Yunsheng has been so busy these past few days that he almost forgot about this matter.
Although her space is still in its initial stage, its land resources are quite magical.
No matter what crops she planted in the field, they grew much faster than those grown in the outside world.
Chinese cabbage, which normally takes more than two months to mature, can be harvested here in just five or six days.
However, Shen Yunsheng still felt a little regretful, because she currently only had one acre of dry land and one acre of paddy field.
Although this was enough for her to be self-sufficient, it was clearly too small for someone who loved agriculture.
While talking with 007, Shen Yunsheng suddenly remembered the upgrade rules of the space.
It is said that when the space reaches level ten, an orchard and a fishpond will be unlocked. Moreover, the arable land area within the space will also increase as the level increases.
Thinking of this, Shen Yunsheng couldn't help but feel a sense of anticipation. She knew that in order to upgrade the space, she had to keep working hard.
She not only has to plant more crops, but also complete the tasks assigned by the system.
Seeing that Shen Yunsheng seemed to be deep in thought, 007 smiled and said, "Master, we need to plant 100,000 catties of Chinese cabbage to complete the first step of the upgrade. You have to work hard!"
"Don't worry, Tuanzi, I will try my best."
Shen Yunsheng was full of confidence in the future. She believed that as long as she persevered, she would definitely achieve her goal. After all, in this magical space, anything was possible.
007 couldn't help but sigh again, "Hey! It's not enough for you to just work hard. Don't forget the additional conditions for space upgrades." It looked at Shen Yunsheng with a helpless expression, its eyes revealing a hint of worry and anxiety.
"Don't worry! I haven't forgotten. I will definitely find a way to exchange the cabbage for money, and then donate 20% of that money to charity," Shen Yunsheng replied confidently. Her voice was firm and powerful, as if she had already seen the dawn of success.
Shen Yunsheng knew that upgrading the space was not an easy task, but she was confident that she could complete it.
She knew that from the moment she bound herself to the rural space, she had already begun a charitable endeavor—in modern terms, this was called taking from the people and using it for the people. Shen Yunsheng was well aware of the important responsibility she bore; while earning money, she also had to work hard to ensure that more people could benefit from it.
"Master, I'm leaving now. Let me know when you've made up your mind."
Before Shen Yunsheng could speak, 007 turned and entered the space.
Huang's Timber Shop in Yanzi Town.
As soon as Xiao Jingchuan and his father left the lumber shop, they saw Li Dashan and his wife walking towards them with smiles on their faces.
"Jingchuan, I have something I'd like to discuss with you. Are you free now?"
Li Dashan's voice preceded his arrival; he was determined to get his eldest daughter back today, no matter what.
Xiao Jingchuan had already guessed Li Dashan's purpose. He glanced at Li Dashan and went straight to the point, "Uncle Dashan, please tell me what you want to say!"
Fearing that his son would suffer, Xiao Wenjing lowered his voice and said before Li Dashan could speak, "Chuan'er, don't pay attention to Li Dashan. He's definitely up to no good."
