Chapter 1
The morning sun shone brightly, illuminating a luxurious villa. Inside, a stunning woman lay in bed, her eyes wide open, but she didn’t speak. If anyone else saw this scene, they would be startled.
Xia Yunxuan was still in a daze. Since accidentally cutting her finger a few days ago and letting a drop of blood fall onto her ancestral jade pendant, she had gained a spatial dimension and had been having the same dream for three consecutive days.
The dream showed her that she would soon be transported to a different time. The original body would be beaten to death by her abusive husband in the city. The original body was extremely unpopular at home. Her brother and sister would vent their anger on her whenever they were unhappy, and her parents and grandparents didn’t care.
She had always excelled in her studies as a child, while her sister struggled. Sometimes, her sister would ask her to do her exam papers, threatening to tell their parents if she refused, leading to another beating.
The original body had a beautiful, oval-shaped face and fair skin, while her sister had a round face, covered in pimples and dark skin, and was overweight. Her sister was always jealous of her and called her a shameless fox spirit.
Now, she couldn’t do anything about it. If fate wanted her to travel through time, what could she do? Thankfully, she had a cheat code prepared. Otherwise, she would have cursed the heavens, calling them a thief.
She had tested her spatial dimension and found it to be temperature-controlled. She had placed an ice cream and a glass of water inside, and after two days, they were still in the same condition as when she put them in. This meant she could stock up on supplies.
She couldn’t imagine being a wealthy heiress and having to live on a diet of vegetable porridge, barely enough to fill her stomach. It would be better to buy a block of tofu and crash into it.
She had to hurry and stock up on supplies. She didn’t know when she would be transported, and if she was unlucky and hadn’t finished stocking up, how would she survive in that era?
She decided to sell all her assets, including these villas and her company shares. Stocking up on supplies was the most important thing now.
Xia Yunxuan got out of bed, brushed her teeth, washed her face, and got dressed. She called her manager and told him to get everything done. She needed the money urgently, and she was willing to offer a discount on the houses, but only if they were paid in cash.
Taking her phone and keys, she grabbed her bag and went to the garage, where she drove a nondescript car. She had already rented a warehouse, a large one that cost her a couple of thousands for a month. After securing the warehouse, she drove to the wholesale market.
It took her about two hours to reach the wholesale market. When the people there saw a lady in a luxurious car, dressed so beautifully, they asked, “Miss, what do you need? We have everything here, and the quality is excellent, the quantity is large, and we can offer you a discount and free delivery.”
Xia Yunxuan said, “I want 50,000 tons each of rice, millet, black rice, red rice, glutinous rice, corn flour, flour, noodles, potato starch, and sweet potato starch.”
“And 10,000 tons each of soybean oil, olive oil, peanut oil, Golden Dragon Fish oil, rapeseed oil, sesame oil, and flaxseed oil.”
“Also, 10,000 kilograms of various seasonings: vinegar, light soy sauce, dark soy sauce, soy sauce, chicken essence, thirteen spices, and a variety of spices for braising.”
“And 10,000 tons of each type of fruit.” The boss was stunned, his mouth agape, at the numbers Xia Yunxuan threw out. Had he not woken up properly and misheard?
“Boss, I want one ton each of chickens, ducks, fish, quail eggs, eggs, meat, 50,000 kilograms of mutton, and beef.”
“And 50,000 kilograms of various cured meats, duck with sauce, sausages, each type.”
She had money, so she could buy more and store it in her spatial dimension, where it wouldn’t spoil. She wondered if her spatial dimension could be used for planting, so she would have to buy some seeds. If she could plant, she wouldn’t need anything else.
“Boss, I also want 50,000 kilograms of each type of snack. Boss, I want the good quality ones, don’t give me the inferior ones, or I’ll return them.”
“Miss, don’t worry, with such a large quantity, we will definitely check each item carefully and ensure that the best quality goods are delivered to you.”
“Miss, is there anything else you need? I’ll deliver it all together for you.”
“We have everything here, rice, flour, oil, daily necessities, pots and pans, and appliances. This is the largest wholesale market, and many supermarkets source their goods from here.”
“Xia Yunxuan thought for a moment, “I want mobile phones, tablets, computers, fans, air conditioners, refrigerators, microwave ovens, dishwashers, sterilizers, tea bars, Bluetooth earphones, etc…”
“50,000 units of mobile phones, computers, and tablets each, and 20,000 units of the rest.”
“Okay, Miss, rest assured, all our appliances are guaranteed to be of good quality. If there are any problems, you can bring them back to us anytime.”
Xia Yunxuan asked, “Boss, do you have bed sheets, blankets, and down jackets?”
“Miss, we have all of those. We have good quality and cheap bed sheets, and down jackets from various brands and non-branded ones, we have everything.”
“Then boss, I want cotton quilts, bed sheets, duvet covers, pillowcases, good quality and poor quality ones, 50,000 sets each.”
“Down jackets and all kinds of clothes, for men, women, and children, all sizes, 50,000 pieces each.”
“And toothpaste, toothbrushes, soap, shower gel, shampoo, sanitary pads, toilet paper, 3 tons of each.”
“Boss, do you have various books? If you do, give me 10,000 copies of each.”
The boss replied, “Miss, we do. We have all kinds of books here, whether it’s cooking, art, finance, or cookbooks, we have it all.”
The boss asked, “Miss, is there anything else you need? I’ll calculate the total for you. Miss, today, just these for now. Can you calculate how much it is? I’ll transfer the money to you. If I think of anything else, I’ll call you to place an order.”
“Okay, boss,” The boss went to calculate the bill. Xia Yunxuan tasted a bit of each snack. Although they were far from what she was used to, she thought that in that place, she wouldn’t even be able to eat or wear warm clothes, so this was already the best she could get.
One should be content and not be too greedy. If she didn’t have her cheat code, she wouldn’t be able to take anything with her. This was already the best she could do.
She would stock up on these necessary supplies first, and then she would have to go abroad to get some weapons for self-defense. That would give her a sense of security.
She didn’t want to go to a new place and be bullied by anyone. That wasn’t the style of a heiress from a wealthy conglomerate.
“After waiting for about half an hour, the boss finally finished calculating and said to Xia Yunxuan, “Miss, please check the order. The total is 500 million.”
“Okay, boss, I trust you.”
