She reclaimed her family property and broke off her engagement to go to the countryside.

Chapter 154: Rumors spread
Yes, there are.

If you're selling something, you need to check if your product meets the standards.

If it's for purchasing something, then verification of funds is required.

The verification of funds he mentioned was nothing more than checking if you had brought enough money.

It is naturally safe; given its scale, it's impossible for a company to fail to guarantee this.

"Shuyin, do you have other ideas?"

Now, Jiang Shi'an doesn't dare to ask too many questions, for fear of upsetting her.

"Just asking casually..."

The man nodded and didn't continue the conversation.

"Here we are, right here."

In front of us was a small courtyard, which looked quite inconspicuous.

This area should be the back of an ordinary residential house, which has been renovated.

Before Ji Shuyin could take a closer look, Jiang Shi'an beckoned her over.

The two followed a lame old man into the courtyard.

A screeching sound suddenly came.

These must be ducks; they're quite noisy.

"The hens are all here. This year's new hens are just starting to lay eggs, and they're all open for business."

Three yuan each, no bargaining.

This person's emotions didn't fluctuate much, yet the explanation was very clear.

This price is indeed very high.

If you buy an old hen at the supply and marketing cooperative, it will only cost a little over one yuan.

Including the meat ration coupon, it only came to two yuan.

An egg can be exchanged for five cents; if it lays a lot of eggs, three dollars isn't too much.

However, in an era when people couldn't even get enough to eat, chickens were fed even worse.

Most of them rely on finding small insects and grass on their own.

The actual amount of food that could be given was very little.

Therefore, they are not very diligent in laying eggs.

She wasn't afraid, since there were so many vegetables in the space.

Even if you don't get the good stuff, the old stuff is enough to eat.

Jiang Shi'an glanced at her, probably wanting to ask for her opinion.

Ji Shuyin naturally had no problem with it, so she nodded to him and then spoke to the lame old man.

"Price is fine, I need ten hens."

As he spoke, he took out three ten-yuan bills from his pocket.

They paid before even making a selection; that shows their sincerity.

After accepting the money, they became more polite.

"Okay, ten, then choose for yourselves."

She wasn't very good at it either, and she was somewhat intimidated when she heard that she had to choose.

Jiang Shi'an noticed it and pointed to one not far away.

"I think that one is good; it runs fast."

It seemed like a sudden opening had been made, and she started picking and choosing, specifically looking for those with strong legs.

After selecting the chickens, the lame old man grabbed them and tied them up one by one so they wouldn't run away.

They all have baskets on their backs, so you can just put them in.

Because of the living creature on his body, he dared not wander around anymore.

The two went straight back to the production team, and didn't dare to greet anyone they saw on the way.

"Shuyin, what are you going to do with these ten chickens?"

Jiang Shi'an's concerns were not unfounded.

If someone finds out, that would be a very serious matter.

Putting everything else aside, the source of this money alone is enough to give her a hard time.

"Jiang Shi'an, I have my own arrangements. Thank you for your help today."

You still need to keep this a secret for me.

"Of course, don't worry, I won't tell anyone."

"it is good."

Seeing that she had no other intentions, Jiang Shi'an tactfully went back. As soon as she left, she quickly closed all the doors.

Then, all ten chickens were put into the space.

They untied the rope from the claws and put the chickens into the coop.

These hens are still not quite used to it.

After she threw in some vegetable leaves, the feeling disappeared.

Then, they got some more corn, and things got even crazier.

Drinking water, naturally, refers to the water inside the space.

After everything was ready, she clapped her hands, stood in front of the chicken coop, and looked at the fruits of her labor.

It's better to crush the corn and make it into cornmeal.

Then we can mix these chickens together and eat them.

There are stone mills in the village, all for public use, so she can go there to get one.

However, I need an assistant to do this; I definitely can't do it by myself.

She didn't want to bother Jiang Shi'an anymore, so she prepared to go to Huang Chunjing's house.

The two hit it off immediately, and he accompanied her all the way back to pack her things.

When we arrived at the stone mill, there were quite a few people chatting and sunbathing, making it a fairly large information center for the entire production team.

Upon seeing them approach, the group suddenly fell silent, their eyes filled with mockery as they looked over.

Ji Shuyin felt something was strange. She looked at herself and found nothing unusual, as did Huang Chunjing.

A middle-aged woman, though, was very enthusiastic.

"Hey, Ji and Huang, what are you doing?"

"Auntie, let's make some cornmeal."

"Do you need any help?"

They were just being polite, and the two of them could tell that, so they naturally didn't need it.

However, today was extremely strange; I was under the watchful eyes of that group of people the entire time.

They also seemed to whisper among themselves from time to time, which made people very uncomfortable.

Finally finished, the two left almost impatiently.

"Shuyin, don't you find it strange? The way those people looked at us was like they were laughing at us."

“That’s right, we haven’t done anything recently, there must be something fishy going on.”

Huang Chunjing thought the same thing, and felt a little uncomfortable.

"How annoying! We don't steal or rob, so we don't even know what we're doing here!"

Even during the off-season for farming, these people shouldn't be so idle.

If everyone were proactive, would we still need educated youth to come and support the construction?

This whole set of theories made her laugh.

"What are you laughing at? Am I wrong?"

"No, no, I think it makes perfect sense."

Chun Jing, I agree with you.

After saying that, he gave her a thumbs up.

After receiving the praise, the other person became even more overwhelmed.

"No, I need to ask them what they're talking about."
"Shuyin, you pack these yourself. I'll go and find out more."

She was already home, and there wasn't much to pack, so she planned to put everything into her storage space.

"Okay, go ahead, but just don't get into any conflicts with anyone!"

"Do not worry."

Huang Chunjing left without looking back, in a very anxious manner.

Without thinking much, she tidied up her things and went to her spatial dimension to add food and water for the rabbit and the hen.

The cornmeal and vegetable leaves were mixed with warm water and the hen loved it.

We went to pick vegetables again. Now we can pick a lot every day, and the house is full of fresh vegetables.

This is also physically demanding, mainly because there's just too much to do.

Just as they finished getting things done and returned outside, Huang Chunjing stormed back in, furious.

She was washing her hands, and seeing her like that, I quickly asked her something.

"What's wrong? Who made our beauty angry?"

It would have been better if she hadn't mentioned it; the more she did, the angrier she became.

"Shuyin, you have no idea, those people actually spread rumors about us."
