Transmigration: Getting Rich with My Space and Supplies

The village chief, upon hearing his words, just felt that Rong Shuiniu was beyond saving.

He said irritably, "Rong Yan really did us proud, scored the first place in the entire province. Tomorrow, reporters are going to interview her, she’s going to be in the newspapers! Now, Rong Yan has not just become the pride of the whole town, but also our county’s."

Some villagers also interjected excitedly, "She’s got a lot of prize money too! I heard not just from her school, but the town, county, even the province will dish out a big sum! All together, it must be at least this much."

The speaker gestured with an open hand.

"...Five hundred?" Ha, what’s five hundred? University tuition and living expenses are a huge chunk of change; see who she’ll ask for it when the time comes.

Rong Shuiniu had made inquiries; that family didn’t recognize the dead girl at all!

"Ha, clueless. The prize money from the school alone is one thousand. Do you think it could only be five hundred?"

Upon hearing this, Rong Shuiniu’s face immediately looked a bit worse.

"What do you mean? Are you saying it’s five thousand?"

"Isn’t that obvious? All added up, it might even exceed five thousand! Rong Shuiniu, you really let go of a golden child!"

The tone was thick with mockery.

Rong Shuiniu’s breathing became rapid for a few moments.

He looked at the others and saw their expressions were identical.

Now, the one thousand five hundred yuan he took didn’t seem so appealing.

Can one thousand five hundred compare with five thousand?

No, he had to find that dead girl.

The village chief saw the eagerness in his eyes.

So he directly warned, "Rong Shuiniu, no matter what you’re thinking right now, since Rong Yan no longer has anything to do with your family, you’re not allowed to go looking for her again. If I hear you’ve bothered her again, then don’t bother staying in this village."

Their village finally had someone who made it to university by placing first in the entire province, but Rong Shuiniu, the fool, messed it up.

If he went to bother her again, probably even the county officials would start taking notice of their village.

Rong Shuiniu, on hearing this, was somewhat resentful, "After all, it was our family who raised her..."

"Have some shame! How did you raise her? And besides, if it weren’t for you, she would be living even better. I’ve said what I needed to, don’t bring shame to our village."

The village chief had come specifically to warn Rong Shuiniu.

Rong Yan was definitely going to be in the newspapers, and he didn’t want all that messy business to be dug up, becoming known to the entire country.

The village would also become infamous... that kind of notoriety was best avoided.

Rong Shuiniu felt resentful but he was still somewhat afraid of the village chief.

After the village chief looked at him deeply, he turned and walked away directly.

The others didn’t leave; they stayed behind to chat with Rong Shuiniu. After all, Rong Shuiniu had dodged them for quite a while. Now that they had him cornered, weren’t they going to poke at his heart?

...

Rong Yan knew nothing about what was happening in the village. Even if she did know, she wouldn’t care.

After all, she had nothing to do with that family anymore.

The next day, as scheduled, she went to her school.

She calmly went through the interview, and didn’t mention any other matters.

The reporters had probably been tipped off in advance, so the questions they asked weren’t too pointed.

After the interview was the presentation of the prize money by the principal.

"Rong Yan, this is the scholarship from the province, this one is from the county, and this one is from the town. Our school is also awarding you one."

Their school had prepared one thousand yuan. After all, the town was giving 1,200, and they couldn’t possibly surpass that amount.

"Thank you," Rong Yan accepted all the prize money.

After the school ceremony, she bid her final goodbye to her head teacher.

"Mr. Huang, I am leaving for Jing City early tomorrow, I wanted to let you know."

In her original memories, this head teacher had been quite good to her.

So, this was a farewell of sorts as she didn’t know when they’d meet again, if ever.

"Leaving tomorrow? Then be careful on the road, especially on the train. Don’t talk to strangers, stay vigilant, and remember, if anything happens, be sure to seek out the train attendants!"

Mr. Huang was really worried.

Rong Yan was attractive, and it would be terrible if she encountered human traffickers.

"Mr. Huang, don’t worry, I’ll be fine! Plus, I’m quite strong, I have the ability to protect myself."

Mr. Huang looked at her, thinking that even if a young girl were strong, could she overpower an adult?

He gave her a few more words of caution, then took out one hundred yuan from his pocket, "This is a little something from Mr. Huang, take it..."

Rong Yan, of course, wouldn’t accept it. The salary for teachers like him was only fifty or sixty yuan a month.

This one hundred was like two months’ salary, not an easy sum to part with.

"Mr. Huang, please take your money back, I don’t need it. Besides, I have money on hand, and I’ll be working over this summer break."

She refused, and Mr. Huang had no choice.

"Then take care on your journey."

"Okay, goodbye Mr. Huang!" Rong Yan waved a hand and then turned to leave.

When she got back to the small courtyard, she returned the room to the landlord lady.

That evening, the landlord prepared her a table of good dishes, a final meal for the two of them.

The next day, Rong Yan left with her few belongings.

But before leaving, she made a trip to the police station first.

Fang Hui happened to come to work, and when she saw Rong Yan enter, she was surprised, and then delighted.

"Rong Yan, what brings you to the police station so early? Is something the matter?"

Rong Yan: "I am going to Jing City today. I got into Jing City University, so I’m heading there early."

Fang Hui immediately said, "Then be careful on your way."

She then smiled and gave a thumbs up.

"Rong Yan, you’re this, and from now on, you should study hard and live well."

"Thank you! Also, these two letters are what I’m leaving behind. One envelope contains money I’m returning to you all, many thanks! The other envelop has US$ 2,000, which is a donation. It’s for those poor students; I hope they never give up on their studies."

Fang Hui was taken aback, hastily trying to give back the two large envelopes being handed over.

"You don’t need to do this with the money. We didn’t give it to you to be returned, and as for the donation, you don’t need to do that. You should keep your money for university..."

The girl was too sincerely honest.

The various fees for university, including her future living expenses... that’s a full four years!

"I received a fair amount of scholarship money this time, and now that I’m of age, I can do many part-time jobs even while at university. Don’t keep pushing the money back and forth, that’s all! I’m going to miss my train!"

After saying this, Rong Yan took off running.

Fang Hui wanted to chase after her but did not expect Rong Yan to sprint so fast, and she didn’t catch up in time.

Now with the money in her hands, Fang Hui was puzzled about what to do.

What now?

Well, better go find the chief!
