Reborn with a Space: Building a Fortune Amidst Famine

"Yuanyuan, if this thing existed in my old world, it would be quite groundbreaking."

"It's pretty groundbreaking here too. You're really lucky."

"Yeah, I am truly lucky to have met you, got three treasures, and now this treasure too."

It's almost midnight now, yet this guy is still very energetic.

"Hurry up and go to sleep. You've got work tomorrow."

"That's not a problem."

Su Yuanyuan ignored him. Otherwise, it would never end.

Tan Shaoting looked at his sleeping wife and kids beside him, feeling especially excited.

He didn't sleep at all one night, yet he was still full of energy the next day.

He made breakfast. It was just rice porridge, and the kids ate that too, along with an egg each.

Today, Tan Shaoting started questioning the three people they caught.

Throughout, he sat listening. Mainly, he was reading their memories and, indeed, discovered too many secrets.

He suddenly stood up. "All of you, get out."

The two record keepers and the two interrogators all left.

Now the room had just the two of them left.

Tan Shaoting directly revealed some things. Jia Mingchao was very surprised.

"You should just talk. What I say is different from what you said. Better to live cowardly than to die heroically, right?"

Jia Mingchao was silent for ten minutes before he started answering Tan Shaoting's questions.

There was no issue with him keeping his own record.

The interrogation lasted over three hours, missing lunch.

But there was too much information that ordinary people couldn't know.

Tan Shaoting had Jia Mingchao sign and fingerprint it. Only then did he put it away.

"Wait, can I survive?"

"Smart people or fools can survive."

Jia Mingchao kept analyzing Tan Shaoting's words in his mind. Should he be smart or a fool?

The personal guards had prepared the food, but Tan Shaoting didn't eat it. He went straight home.

He knew that in this kind of weather, his wife would definitely not want to take the kids out.

She was always like that before, hating the dirt roads after rain the most.

As expected, the four of them had already finished lunch.

"Did you eat?" Su Yuanyuan asked her husband, who was close to the kids.

"Not yet, it's okay. I'll handle it myself; don't worry."

After having lunch, he went to work. There were still two more interrogations in the afternoon. Hopefully, he could get some useful information.

The two people in the afternoon had lower positions, so the information they knew was limited, so there was no need for a separate interrogation by Tan Shaoting.

It was just business as usual according to the procedure.

It rained yesterday, and today's roads were still very tough, so Tan Shaoting didn't go to the city. Instead, he decided to wait until the roads were better.

Besides, his wife said she wanted to go together. To buy a radio, which would be great because all five could go out together.

Now, he was just waiting for messages from above. These people couldn't be kept here, so it depended on what the superiors thought.

Also, Daqing and the rest, where had they reached? Bringing back eight people would be enough.

However, they probably wouldn't know as much as these three. After all, they were in local positions, and their ranks weren't high.

The rain was quite heavy, so Tan Shaoting took the whole family to the city three days later.

"We'll get off under the building. You can come back to pick us up later."

Tan Shaoting knew that even if he took his wife and kids, they couldn't get in.

"Yuanyuan, I'll leave the car for you."

"No need, that would be even more troublesome. We have a stroller, so the four of us won't be tired."

Tan Shaoting parked the car at the building entrance, got off, and took the stroller down. He placed the three kids onto the stroller.

"You three must listen to Mom."

The three little ones nodded. They looked adorable and well-behaved.

"Alright, you go on. We're going in for a walk."

"If the stroller can't go upstairs, just don't go. Wait for me. I'll try to come back quickly."

"Okay, don't worry about us."

Once Tan Shaoting drove away, Su Yuanyuan pushed the stroller into the building.

True to the Capital's name, the building had a really comprehensive selection of products.

Since there was no rush, she took her time shopping.

While pushing the stroller, she introduced the children to various things.

There were also toys for sale here, and of course, Su Yuanyuan would buy them for the kids.

She initially wanted to buy a hard plastic doll for her daughter, but the daughter disliked it, eventually choosing a nine-chain puzzle herself.

Their favorite was candies, kept in pretty glass jars.

No matter how they tasted, they looked extremely nice.

Since the kids liked them and had never seen them before, Su Yuanyuan naturally obliged, but didn't buy too much of each type.

She had plenty of sugar tickets, just didn't want the kids to eat too much sweets.

She also bought some milk candies, giving one each to the three kids.

Next were toiletries. Su Yuanyuan didn't lack much and had many enamel products in the space, so she just browsed around.

However, she did buy five towels, one for each family member, as well as toothbrushes, toothpaste, and soap.

Basically, if she saw something she didn't have, she'd buy it.

"Mom, what's that?" Qi Hong pointed to a picture book.

"It's a book with pictures. Do you want it?"

All three kids nodded.

"Comrade, please pass me a picture book, I want the kids to have a look first."

"Look at what? You can't look here; buy it if you wish, otherwise, leave it."

Su Yuanyuan was taken aback. Geez, did this person eat gunpowder?

The three kids had never experienced such rudeness, so they were a bit bewildered.

Su Yuanyuan had heard salespeople were aggressive during this time, but didn't expect to encounter it herself.

Calming herself, she said, "Then give me one of each."

Reluctantly, the salesperson started picking out books for her.

She bought 20 books in total, then went and paid after receiving the bill, placing all the books on the stroller.

"Mom."

"We'll read at home. Do you see anything else you like?"

Su Yuanyuan pushed the stroller leisurely around the building, considering asking someone to watch the stroller so she could take the kids upstairs.

But after encountering such unfriendliness, she decided against it, choosing to wait patiently for Tan Shaoting to come over.

However, it didn't take long to finish shopping on the first floor. She bought some snacks from old and established brands, the taste definitely wouldn't be wrong.

"Mom, where's Dad?"

"Dad went to work, we'll wait for him to come back."

After another round, Su Yuanyuan really found it boring.

"Can you go upstairs by yourself with Mom?"

Less than two years old, making the kids climb the stairs was indeed worrisome.

"We can go up and have a look, but you need to walk by yourselves, while Mom carries the stroller."
