She glanced at the sleeping little kid beside her, carefully got up, dressed, and left.
Tonight, it was rare that it didn’t rain, and a hazy crescent moon appeared high in the sky.
In the moonlight, Gu Jin walked towards the warehouse she rented during the day.
She arrived at the warehouse door and opened the lock with a key.
She turned on the flashlight she carried, looked at the spotless warehouse, and stepped inside.
The best advantage of this era is that the streets and alleys are not yet filled with surveillance caras.
Gu Jin walked into the empty warehouse, went to the end, and released the space’s wheat and corn.
Doing all this required the consumption of Spiritual Power.
By the ti the warehouse was half full, Gu Jin had consud about one-third of her Spiritual Power.
Her hands continued moving, and as she walked, she quickly released the stored grain from the space.
Until the warehouse was almost full, then she released several thousand pounds of sweet potatoes and potatoes, piling the storage neatly.
After finishing all this, thinking that there were still so fresh fruits and vegetables in the space, about a few thousand pounds, which she had ripened using less than an acre of Spirit Field during idle rainy days before.
Thinking that fruits and vegetables might be scarce now, Gu Jin decided to fill the last remaining space, reserved for Liu Quan and others to load goods, with the fruits and vegetables.
Having filled the warehouse, Gu Jin did not leave imdiately but entered the space.
About one-third of the wheat and corn in the space was gone.
Previously, she told Liu Quan there were a hundred tons of grain, but in fact, there was even more.
Glancing at the mountainous piles of grain, Gu Jin walked to the Spirit Field and replanted the seeds of various fruits and vegetables.
These were the quality seeds that fell off after the fruits and vegetables matured.
After planting the seeds, Gu Jin, as usual, directed stream water to irrigate the Spirit Field.
The newly planted fruit and vegetable seeds matured at a speed visible to the naked eye under the support of the stream water.
The fruits and vegetables ripened from the ten acres of Spirit Field weighed several tons.
After harvesting these vegetables and fruits, Gu Jin planted wheat and corn again, but this ti she did not choose to speed up the process.
The Spiritual Power was almost depleted, and continuing any further would lead to exhaustion.
Looking at the mountain-like heaps of fruits and vegetables, Gu Jin was not worried that they would rot in the space, as the space had a preservation function, keeping everything as fresh as when they were just matured, no matter how long they are stored.
Leaving the space, Gu Jin returned to the warehouse, locked the door, and turned to leave for the guesthouse.
...
Liu Quan didn’t sleep at all that night.
After Gu Jin left, he remained in a state of self-doubt, worry, and unease.
Until dawn, when the long unseen sunlight slowly erged from the distant sky, Liu Quan’s eyes shone with astonishing brightness.
Even though the areas under his eyes were bluish, the excitent in his eyes was unaffected.
The sunlight appeared, and it truly was an auspicious sign.
Waking up early, Dali, with sleepy eyes, saw Brother Quan already sitting in the hall, looking haggard yet excited, and exclaid.
"Brother Quan, you didn’t sleep all night?"
At this mont, Liu Quan was neatly dressed, with car keys in one hand and the other tapping the table relentlessly.
The rapid and chaotic rhythm of his fingers tapping on the table revealed his nervousness.
Liu Quan glanced at Dali indifferently, murmured a sound, then returned his eyes to staring at the entrance.
Seeing this situation, Dali quickly stood obediently by his side.
How could he not know what Brother Quan was thinking? He was just waiting for Miss Gu.
