The market in Xiaoheyan Town is located on a dirt road beside the small river outside the town.

These days, private trading is considered speculation and belongs to a gray area.

Everyone was acting furtively, shooting and moving on to a new location.

At the slightest sign of trouble, they would pack up their stall and run.

When Su Qingyun arrived at the location, she found a secluded corner.

Taking advantage of the fact that no one was around, he had a sudden thought.

He retrieved fifty kilograms of rice from his personal storage space.

They put it in an old burlap sack, left open, and laid it on the ground.

An old man selling potatoes and pumpkins was squatting nearby.

He was wearing a patched coarse cloth jacket, his face was full of wrinkles, and he was holding a pipe.

He glanced at Su Qingyun's sack, and his eyes widened instantly.

"Oh my young man, your rice is truly rare! Wow, you probably can't even find this quality at the town's supply and marketing cooperative."

The old man leaned closer, staring intently at the white rice grains.

Looking at the shriveled potatoes in front of him, he swallowed hard.

"But there are few people around right now, and nobody has much money in their pockets."

"Your exquisite items might not sell well."

The old man kindly offered this reminder.

Su Qingyun handed him a straw to use as a toothpick and smiled.

"Sir, it's nothing, I was just trying my luck."

The voice just fell.

Ring ring—

A bicycle bell rang.

A 28-inch motorcycle was parked in front of the stall.

A young woman was straddling the vehicle.

She had short, ear-length hair and wore a women's uniform.

She was wearing mid-heeled leather shoes.

She has fair skin and a capable yet dashing air about her.

It didn't fit in with the gray market.

"Oh my, they really do sell rice!"

The woman's eyes lit up, and her voice was full of surprise.

This woman's name is Qin Chuyu.

He speaks with a strong Sichuan-Chongqing accent, and sounds quite brash.

She is the daughter of a cadre from a nearby forest farm.

My father's stomach problems have flared up recently. He can't get used to eating whole grains and is so uncomfortable that he can't sleep.

Feeling sorry for her father, she came to the market to try her luck.

"Comrade, how much is your rice?"

Qin Chuyu, with one long leg supporting her on the ground, asked crisply.

Su Qingyun is well aware of the value of his super rice.

He held up one finger, speaking calmly.

"One cent per pound, no bargaining."

Upon hearing the price, the old man next to him gasped in shock; this young man was truly obsessed with money.

The market price was at most five cents, but this young man doubled it!

This is robbery!

Qin Chuyu frowned, inwardly cursing this person for being so dishonest.

"You, with your thick eyebrows and big eyes, how can you be so heartless? One cent a pound, why don't you just rob someone!"

Su Qingyun wasn't annoyed; a slight smile played on her lips.

"Oh, she's got a fiery temper."

"Comrade, you get what you pay for. Take a look at the quality before you speak."

Qin Chuyu snorted coldly, parked the car, and walked over.

He reached out and grabbed a handful of rice.

She was stunned as soon as she got her hands on it.

The rice grains are plump, translucent, round, and smooth.

When you get close enough to smell it, a fragrant aroma of rice fills your nose.

She's from the south and has eaten plenty of good rice there.

This is the first time I've ever seen such high-quality rice!

It's so soft and sticky, it would be perfect to make porridge.

Dad's stomach problems will definitely get better.

Qin Chuyu had made up her mind, and her tone softened.

"Okay, this rice is indeed good."

"Fifty pounds, I'll take them all."

Su Qingyun readily nodded.

"That's five yuan in total."

Qin Chuyu's eyes darted around, revealing a shrewd glint in them.

She unfolded the handkerchief and took it out of her pocket.

Inside were a few coins and tickets.

He counted out two yuan and handed it to Su Qingyun.

"This is a two-dollar deposit."

"I'm a woman, I can't carry this fifty kilograms of rice."

"You're responsible for delivering it to your door."

"I'll give you the remaining three dollars when we get there."

Su Qingyun took the money and put it in her pocket.

Five yuan was not a small amount at the time.

I can buy a lot of good things now.

However, this money doesn't last long; it's gone as soon as you buy some meat.

"No problem, lead the way."

Su Qingyun picked up the sack and casually slung it over his shoulder.

His movements were swift and decisive, exuding a masculine energy.

Qin Chuyu hopped on her bicycle, pushed off, and led the way.

Beyond the market lies a bumpy dirt road.

There were tall poplar trees on both sides.

Qin Chuyu rode slowly, glancing back every now and then.

Carrying fifty kilograms of rice, she thought Su Qingyun must be panting heavily from exhaustion.

We had to stop after going very far.

When he turned around, he found Su Qingyun following the car at a leisurely pace.

They took extremely large steps.

Without blushing or panting.

He didn't even break a sweat.

Qin Chuyu was secretly alarmed.

This farmer has incredible stamina!

He could carry fifty pounds of things without any effort.

Looking at Su Qingyun's relaxed and carefree appearance.

Qin Chuyu felt a mischievous urge stirring within her.

"Hmph, if I let you sell it at such a high price, you'll be exhausted!"

She gritted her teeth and stomped her feet hard.

The bicycle chain made a clicking sound.

The car suddenly picked up speed and sped along the dirt road.

A cloud of dust rose up.

Su Qingyun watched the speeding figure ahead and a mischievous smile appeared on his lips.

Trying to play these tricks on me?

As we turned the corner ahead, there was no one around.

A thought arose.

The burlap sack on his shoulder was put into his personal space.

Without the weight, Su Qingyun's body, modified by the space rice, was able to move freely.

With long strides, he ran wildly behind empty-handed.

The wind whistled in my ears.

Its speed was no slower than that of a bicycle.

Not only am I not tired, but I also feel full of energy.

More than half an hour later.

The residential compound of the forestry factory headquarters.

The buildings here are all made of red bricks, neat and impressive.

This highlights the residents' status as government officials.

Qin Chuyu slammed on the brakes, leaving a mark on the ground with the old-fashioned bicycle.

Her legs were so tired they were trembling.

He was drenched in sweat, and the back of his uniform was completely soaked.

It clings to the body, outlining a graceful curve.

She breathed triumphantly, preparing to turn around and laugh at Su Qingyun's embarrassing predicament.

He even had a sarcastic remark in mind.

I just turned my head.

"Huh?"

Qin Chuyu opened her cherry-like mouth in surprise, her eyes wide open.

Su Qingyun's tall figure stood steadily behind her.

He was still carrying that fifty-pound sack in his hand.

This was, of course, something he took out of his spatial storage before he arrived.

"Why did you stop riding?"

Su Qingyun smiled and didn't even catch her breath.

Actually, he was also wondering to himself, this body modified by the space was really useful.

"Have we arrived?"

Qin Chuyu was completely dumbfounded.

She glanced at Su Qingyun, then at her own old bicycle.

I just can't understand it.

How can someone carry 50 pounds of rice on their two legs and outrun a bicycle that has been pedaling wildly for half an hour?

Is this even human?! It's more like an animal!

"You...you..."

Qin Chuyu pointed at Su Qingyun, unable to utter a complete sentence for a long time.

My worldview was severely impacted.

She was exhausted and hot, feeling like she was on fire.

His chest heaved violently.

Looking down at her disheveled state, Su Qingyun barely suppressed a laugh.

"Comrade, where should we put the rice?"

He weighed the sack in his hand, his tone relaxed.

Qin Chuyu gritted her teeth and glared at him fiercely.

This man is a monster!

She pushed her bicycle toward a red brick building.

Su Qingyun followed behind, discreetly observing the surrounding environment.

Those who can live in this kind of family compound are definitely high-ranking members of the forest farm.

It seems that if this connection is established, I won't have to worry about selling my rice anymore.

Maybe we can even get our hands on some scarce tickets.

The two walked to a door on the second floor.

Qin Chuyu stopped and leaned her bicycle against the wall.

He was panting heavily, his face covered in sweat.

"call……"

"My house...is...right inside, let's go..."

She pulled open her shirt collar and fanned herself vigorously inside.

But she didn't realize that she had already exposed herself.
