Chapter 36 - 036. Buy, Buy, Buy
Shuzhen’s eyes sparkled; is this like a pillow coming for the sleepy head?
Even though she’d already lent Lian Hai fifty pounds of national grain coupons and just exchanged another thirty pounds. The hundred plus pounds of coupons she gathered from Wu Xia’s savings were running low. But didn’t she have her supernatural abilities? With just a thought, she could make cucumbers transform from inches long to over a foot, and grow seeds into rice spikelets in no time, that should be no problem.
With her abilities, she’s naturally not short on food. Xue Guohong, the girl who works at the provincial supply store, always has ways that others don’t. Maintaining a good relationship is mutually beneficial and a win-win situation.
But ideas are just ideas. To put them into action, a lot more needs to be considered.
For instance, the safety and reliability of food sources and transportation. It seems like just two points, but the aspects involved are extensive!
Without a perfect solution, Shuzhen would rather hold onto a golden bowl and eat plain meals than risk dragging her family into a storm. After all, lacking those colorful coupons would just lower the living standard. But a careless mistake and getting caught by someone could be life-threatening!
Her heaven-defying abilities or such private transactions are absolutely forbidden to be exposed to light.
Having lived long and experienced many things, she couldn’t be as simple and pure-hearted as her sister Guohong.
However, given these special times, even familial betrayals are commonplace. Being cautious is never a big mistake. Mentioning it slightly, her sister Guohong didn’t show any resentment but looked at her gratefully. Whether they had the opportunity to work together long-term or not, Shuzhen found this girl teachable.
