Xia Qing got up at seven o’clock, having only slept for four hours. Perhaps it was really due to absorbing a lot of crystal beads, as she felt full of energy.

If she’d had this kind of energy earlier, working 996 wouldn’t have been a problem!

Remembering Su Yu’s instructions from last night, she planned to buy more food today.

First, she turned on her computer, only to find that many items in her Taobao shop were already sold out. She quickly printed out the order list to pack and ship those items later.

“I didn’t expect things from another dimension to sell so well!”

After all, there’s a difference of an era, and the cultures on both sides are different.

“If I could bring over clothing and other design elements from that side for inspiration!”

“Then she could make a lot of money with those, without even having to use her own brain!”

Several tens of thousands of yuan had been deposited into her phone account!

She opened her phone and checked the Qi Mao Novels app, only to find that both of her books were hits!

Books that became popular in another time and space and could be published would also do well in this time and space!

She released ten thousand words for each of the two books, and there were already many comments below, and the number of favorites was also increasing rapidly!

There were also comics from another time and space on her desk. She had originally studied painting, so she could also draw these, but she would buy a tablet to scan them.

It’s too difficult to design paintings now! It’s because of AI that can only draw! Although it lacks soul, it has also eliminated a large number of designers.

She looked at the style of these books, which were relatively novel. She bought a tablet from Taobao, and after it arrived, she could also submit manga.

Now, literary value is greater than other things, such as antiques and cultural relics, and everyone pays more attention to emotional value.

Downstairs, Yang Xia shouted loudly.

“Xia Qing! Aunt Sun is here to see you.”

“Qingqing ah! Our family’s sweet potatoes have all been dug up, more than three thousand catties? Where should I transport them to for you?”

“Aunt Sun, please pack the sweet potatoes, and I’ll send a flatbed truck over later!”

Aunt Sun couldn’t stop smiling when she heard this.

“There are people coming to transport them! That’s really great!”

“Okay, Aunt Sun, you go home and wait for me! Someone will probably be there in the afternoon.”

“Okay, okay! These are the sweet potatoes dug from the field today, take some for your family to eat.”

Aunt Sun put down a bag of sweet potatoes and left happily.

Xia Qing quickly contacted the warehouse in the town that she had used before.

“I need two trucks to go to Nanqiao Village in the afternoon.”

“The freight for one truck is 500 yuan, including loading and unloading.”

“Okay!”

Xia Qing had money now and didn’t want to bargain.

The two added each other on WeChat, and Xia Qing directly transferred 1,000 yuan.

The cost of labor and trucks was relatively expensive, and the villagers were reluctant to rent trucks to transport vegetables.

Most families used tricycles more often.

Their Nanshan Village was not very wealthy in the county.

Now they all talk about poverty alleviation and helping farmers, but there are few who actually put it into practice.

“Qingqing, your dad is picking tomatoes in the field, go over and help later.”

“Okay!”

Along the way, Xia Qing also met many people who were very friendly to her.

“Qingqing, we have planted 3 mu of eggplants in our field! Are you interested in buying them? The purchase price for selling them outside is 7 mao per catty, and we sell them ourselves for 5 mao.”

“The cucumbers in our field are 4 mao per catty!”

“Buy! Buy!”

Xia Qing paid a deposit to everyone, and several uncles and aunts left happily.

Thinking of this, she called and ordered two flatbed trucks.

She refused the people who came to her later.

Mainly because the warehouse had collected almost enough for today and was full. She still had to collect them all into the space at night.

Uncle Zhang, who had just been rejected by Xia Qing, looked unhappy, and the old woman next to him was still arguing with him.

“Oh! I told you to ask Xia Qing earlier! Now they don’t accept them anymore!”

In the evening, her warehouse was already piled high with the vegetables she had collected today.

She immediately entered the space and contacted Su Yu.

It was still late at night there.

“Su Yu?”

Before the apocalypse, he was a special forces soldier, and he had lived a highly stressful life for a year under the apocalypse.

Even in a sleep state, he would wake up to slight movements.

“Hmm?”

“I collected a lot of sweet potatoes and potatoes, but I can’t collect that much at once.”

Su Yu quickly understood what she meant.

“Wait, I’ll find a place now.”

They were still in the underground shacks and needed to find an open room.

Li Yao, Wang Qiang, and Zhang Liang, three brothers, were also awakened in the middle of the night.

The three were awakened, but they were not unwilling. Instead, they looked excited.

“Okay.”

Xia Qing heard Su Yu’s voice and knew that they were ready, so she began to collect vegetables into the warehouse.

One collected and one took, and the two cooperated very well.

Soon the vegetables in the warehouse were all collected.

They were also receiving them one sack after another, already piled up.

Xia Qing looked at the empty warehouse and said, “Okay!”

“Received!”

Su Yu and the others looked at the sacks that were already piled up like a small mountain, and several of them rolled down from the top.

Li Yao picked one up and said excitedly:

“This, is this a sweet potato?”

Not only were there sweet potatoes, but also potatoes and tomatoes.

“They’re fresh!”

Li Yao and the others’ eyes were red. It had been too long, and they had almost forgotten the fresh vegetables in their memories.

Those bright red vegetables, grown from the soil.

Now the land has mutated, and there are very few plants left.

“This is a tomato!”

Wang Qiang held a tomato in his hand and, without washing it, took a bite; the sour juice filled his mouth.
Li Yao and Zhang Liang each grabbed one and took a large bite.

“It’s fresh! Not mutated! I’m going to let my son taste it!” Li Yao exclaimed eagerly, wanting his wife and son to have a bite.

Su Yu said, “Wait! It’s still the early hours—let’s wait until dawn and then distribute them.”

“Right! They’re still asleep! I got too excited!” someone remarked.

These were fresh vegetables, after all! If the other bases found out they had so many fresh vegetables, they’d probably come over to grab them! They had to protect these vegetables as well.

Even though they had food these past few days, it still wasn’t enough—but this time, the quantity was enormous! Everyone could eat their fill! Previously, they could only just survive, but now they could actually live better.

“After eating these fresh vegetables, the toxins in our bodies gradually diminished.”
It gave them more hope for the future.

“Wang Qiang, go wake up the people from the Vanguard team!” Su Yu ordered.

“Okay,” Wang Qiang replied.

Before long, seven or eight people hurried over. These folks, having endured prolonged hunger and the burden of bodily toxins with insufficient sleep, still had dark circles on their faces. They were, however, among the slightly sturdier ones.

When a few of them saw Yu-ge greeting Su Yu first—
“Yu-ge!”—
they then noticed sacks piled up like a little hill.

“You guys, eat first! Eat until you’re full so you can work hard!” Su Yu instructed.

“Oh my! Am I dreaming?!” they murmured in amazement.

“Sweet potatoes! Potatoes and eggplants!” someone shouted excitedly.

A few of them grabbed tomatoes and began eating them raw.

Seeing that they had eaten their fill, Su Yu then ordered, “The Vanguard team will handle the distribution tomorrow morning, and you all stay on guard!”
