Forced to marry a disabled man in the countryside? I'll repay you tenfold!

Having finalized the arrangements, Su Wanqing's trip today was quite fruitful.

When everyone emerged from the fertilizer plant, the floodwaters outside had receded to ankle-deep. Su Wanqing casually pushed the boat, collecting all the remaining water into her spatial storage.

This time, her spiritual spring storage capacity surged to an astonishing 680 million cubic meters, equivalent to the volume of 47 West Lakes, almost matching the Miyun Reservoir.

Of course, currently only floodwaters can be transformed into spiritual springs; it's still unknown whether seawater can work. But we can try it once we're abroad.

When they returned to the resettlement site, it was already crowded with people. As soon as the floodwaters receded, many people rushed back to their homes, some searching for lost belongings, others squatting at the crossroads staring blankly at the muddy landscape. People were everywhere.

"Damn it! My house collapsed, my bed is gone, and all the pots and pans were swept away by the flood!"

"My house didn't collapse, but all my bedding and clothes were soaked; I had nothing usable. I was only thinking about escaping and didn't bring anything with me. What a tragedy!"

"All that's left in my house is a bed; nothing else is left."

"The ground is covered with half a foot of mud, and every step leaves a hole. How can we clean it up? Even the well is filled with mud, and it's hard to get a clean drink."

Ma Guoliang couldn't care less about being sad about the equipment anymore; he started making arrangements at the top of his lungs:

"Don't panic! Don't panic! Comrade Su Wanqing said that another batch of food and clothing will arrive tonight, ensuring that everyone has enough to eat and wear for the next month. As long as we have food and clothing, everything else is negotiable! The most important thing now is to clear out living quarters. Everyone should go back and check. Clean up anything that's habitable, and for anything that's uninhabitable, go back to the resettlement point and set up temporary shelters. Don't wander off!"

"What? There's still so much food? And they're even giving out clothes?"

"This is great! I was just worried about not having any dry clothes to change into!"

The news spread like wildfire, and soon the entire resettlement site knew about it. Comrade Su Wanqing had also managed to procure food and clothing for everyone, so there was no shortage of water or food, and life finally looked promising.

Uncle Ding was surrounded by a group of old men as he demonstrated his carpentry skills, hammering and tinkering with a few broken door panels and scraps of wood to make two small stools. Everyone watched with admiration and came forward to ask for his advice.

Da Bao and Xiao Bao were already having a blast, running around the sheds covered in mud. Ding Xiaomei was carrying one of the children in each arm and holding a bamboo stick in the other, chasing after them. Behind them were Zhang Qiang, who was also carrying a child, and another bodyguard. The scene was chaotic and lively.

Upon seeing Su Wanqing return, Ding Xiaomei uttered a few harsh words to Da Bao and Xiao Bao, then patted the giggling little Xingge in her arms before walking up to Su Wanqing:

"You're finally back! How did things go?"

Su Wanqing took Xiao Xingge from her daughter, kissed her on her chubby little face, and saw her eyes rolling around. She found the little one even more adorable, so she said, "Everything's done over there. We caught a lot of snakes along the way. We haven't decided on dinner yet, so I'll make a good pot." She didn't mention that she had encountered any danger.

Ding Xiaomei quickly rolled up her sleeves: "Why don't I do it? I'm quick."

Su Wanqing handed the child back, shaking her head with a smile: "I'm good at this, and I brought a lot of seasonings in my basket, so it will taste delicious." She patted the basket as she spoke.

"Alright, then we're in for a treat tonight."

Upon arriving at the communal kitchen, Zhou Yanshen and several bodyguards had already brought in the prepared snake meat. Hundreds of snakes, each as thick as an arm, half of which had been torn apart by Zhou Yanshen with his bare hands, were neatly arranged on a wooden board, making Uncle Ding smack his lips in amazement.

Once the ingredients were ready, Su Wanqing shooed everyone out: "Alright, leave this to me, you guys just wait to eat."

Zhou Yanshen was already used to it. Whenever his wife cooked and tried to shoo people away, the food she made was always plentiful and delicious. Without saying a word, he would help clear the area and keep bystanders out.

Looking at the pile of snake meat, Su Wanqing had already made her plans. Right now, besides rice balls and the "Golden Jade Naan" (a type of sweet dumpling), there wasn't much else to go with it, but luckily there was plenty of snake meat. She snapped her fingers, storing all the snake meat into her spatial storage, and then silently chanted, "Tenfold return!"

In the blink of an eye, ten times more snake meat appeared in the space. She divided it into two portions, first storing seven and a half portions separately into the Craftsman's Cube.

"Payment upgrade!"

[Using 1000 grams of precious gold, half of the snake meat was successfully processed. The result is "Dragon and Phoenix Auspicious Snake Meat Soup," with tender, smooth meat and a golden-yellow broth. It is warming and nourishing, and long-term consumption can prolong life.]

In the next instant, the snake meat turned into bowls of crystal-clear snake meat soup. The broth was clear, the meat slices were like white jade, and a few red dates and goji berries floated on top, making it look incredibly tempting.

Sigh, Su Wanqing immediately stole a bowl and tasted it.

Delicious! So delicious! It's no wonder it's an upgraded item with a fee. The snake meat melts in your mouth without being loose at all. The meat has a unique firmness and chewiness, like eel but more tender, and different from the smooth texture of loach. In short, it's incredibly fresh.

But she dared not show off something so nice in public. She could only show it off secretly from now on.

She stored the snake meat soup directly into her spatial storage, ate a large bowl herself, and stored the rest in her food warehouse to enjoy later. Her food warehouse now contains dozens of kinds of cooked food, ice cream, fruit, and snacks, which she sneaks a bite to eat when she's alone. If she doesn't use up all her ten times the daily food allowance, she doubles the amount of her favorite foods to store and enjoy later.

Next, Su Wanqing took out the remaining three-tenths of snake meat, mixed in some rice balls and crumbs of Golden Jade Naan cakes, and then snapped her fingers.

"Payment upgrade!"

The next moment, a rich and powerful dish was served. Five large pots were bubbling with "Farewell My Concubine Snake Meat Stew". Snake meat and chicken pieces were rolling in the bright red broth, rice balls were soaked in the broth, and naan bread was cut into thick slices and half-soaked in the sauce. It was sprinkled with green garlic and dried chili pepper pieces, and the aroma was so strong that it hit you right in the head.

Su Wanqing clapped her hands in satisfaction. The aroma alone would surely make those people outside drool.

She didn't sit idle either, taking advantage of the chaos to tidy up the space again: she fed the animals in the breeding area and harvested all the ripe fruit in the planting area. While ripe fruit wouldn't spoil, leaving it unharvested would delay the next crop's harvest; a day without tending to it meant a ten-day delay. Just as she finished, a rich fruity aroma wafted over—the durians she had planted alongside the mangosteens, after a month of frantic, accelerated growth, were finally ripe!

Who would have thought that durians, which take 8-10 years to mature, would ripen in just one month under Su Wanqing's crazy, induced growth method, which was used at a hundred times the normal speed every day! Hiss—this domineering aroma made Su Wanqing's mouth water.

Su Wanqing couldn't wait to collect them all, peeled out the golden and plump flesh and stored it away, planted the seeds, and took a sip. It was smooth, sweet, and creamy, like eating cream.
