Gasp! She's a Time Traveler Using Modern Tech to Improve Ancient Life-Chapter 345 - 342: Make a Quick Buck and Leave

Don’t get it wrong, thinking that the Lion Country is rich in gemstone resources means they’re rolling in money. Actually, that’s not the case; most ordinary people are quite poor.

On one hand, the mining technology at this time is underdeveloped, making it difficult to extract; on the other hand, these gemstone mineral resources are, of course, monopolized by the king and the great nobility, leaving no opportunity for ordinary people.

Therefore, Lin Wanwan being able to exchange for a small box of gemstones is already quite good. This is all the gemstones the Count G couple earned over years of maritime trade, through blood and rain.

If it weren’t for Lin Wanwan praising the value of cotton cloth to the skies, and according to their knowledge, cotton cloth is indeed expensive, they wouldn’t have been willing to make this exchange.

In order to complete this transaction, Lin Wanwan promised them that they could come to Mao County’s South Pier to find her for continued trades in the future and left her business card. She vaguely hinted at her relationship with the County Magistrate of Mao County, which made the Count G couple agree to the transaction swiftly.

Yes, Xiao Chong’s influential backing can be brought out at any time to leverage power, and it’s particularly useful.

A person with real power is certainly much more intimidating than her mere title of Secondary Fifth Rank Village Lady.

Holding a box of gemstones as Lin Wanwan left, she didn’t overlook the complex gazes from the crowds participating in this transaction, feeling a bit uneasy about only bringing Kun Lun on this trip.

Before leaving, the Lin Clan Leader took out two Fish-shooting Crossbow Arrows from the big ship for Lin Wanwan so she would be prepared for anything outside.

Now it seems, it indeed was somewhat necessary.

Still, to say Lin Wanwan was extremely worried, that may not be true. At least it’s not to the point of needing to move her lodging because of it.

The Count G couple traveling thousands of miles for trade with the Great Tang, if smart, wouldn’t dare offend a Great Tang noble like Lin Wanwan.

Compared to this couple from the Lion Country, the gangs on the pier might be more dangerous for Lin Wanwan.

The pier at Hai City is much more chaotic than Mao County. As the saying goes, "Small temple, big demon wind; shallow pond, many turtles," the gangs here hardly put the government in their eyes.

Figures like Lin Wanwan, who only brought a male and a female slave, supposedly a noble, are not feared by them.

If profits are sufficient, they’re capable of doing anything.

Therefore, Lin Wanwan instructed Hua Nong and Kun Lun to be extremely vigilant, while she herself rode a horse, carrying the small box of jewels, heading openly to the Laojun Temple on the mountain.

Lin Wanwan only asked Hua Nong and Kun Lun to escort her to the mountain gate, explaining to them as naturally, her elder brother is in that mountain.

In reality, once Lin Wanwan entered the mountain gate, she immediately found a concealed place, changed into modern clothes and shoes, hid her ancient clothes and hair bun, and holding the wooden box, opened the Space-Time Gate returning to the modern world.

No matter if today’s lucrative trade noise leaks out or how brazen and lawless the gang leaders at the pier might be, they cannot find Lin Wanwan in the Great Tang lands.

The greatest wealth has been taken away by Lin Wanwan, so Kun Lun and Hua Nong, as slaves, are naturally safe.

Lin Wanwan sorted out affairs on the Great Tang side, having decided not to return to the Great Tang before heading back to Yongcheng.

As long as she doesn’t return, with the current time flow in the two spaces, she can stay in the modern world for half a month, and only three and a half days will pass in the Great Tang.

Recently, Lin Wanwan has stayed longer in the Great Tang, so now the time difference between the two spaces is more than half a month, it’s just the right time to catch up.

In the Great Tang, Lin Wanwan was busy for nearly a day and night, always rushing around. Although she rested on the ship, she was still tired, and it cannot compare to lying comfortably on a large bed at home.

As she returned to the modern world, Lin Wanwan checked the time, it was only six in the morning, with the sun just beginning to rise from the clouds.

Lin Wanwan wasn’t in the mood to watch the sunrise, she first put the small wooden box into her backpack, then went to the bathroom shower room to bathe, casually cleaning her shoes, still wearing Lu Shouyue’s large T-shirt.

Unfortunately, though she could take clothes from the Great Tang, the problem is, even if she does, she can’t wear them, it’s hard to explain.

After washing, she stood in the bathroom wrapping a towel on her head while looking for a hair dryer when Lu Shouyue pushed open the invisible door on the other side and appeared.

"Good morning, Wanwan. You wash your hair twice, morning and night?"

To Lu Shouyue, Lin Wanwan had washed her hair before bed last night and went for a bath and hair wash again this early morning, while for Lin Wanwan, it wasn’t just one night, but nearly two days had passed!

Thirty plus hours, almost forty hours have gone by!

But there’s no way to explain this affair, so she could only smile and brush it off: "Good morning, Mr. Lu. Isn’t it dangerous outside? I wash a few extra times to ward off viruses."

Lu Shouyue laughed, bending down to take out a hair dryer from the cabinet below, long arms reaching to remove the towel from Lin Wanwan’s head, saying, "Let me help dry it for you? I’m tall, just perfect for the task."

Lin Wanwan hurriedly jumped back, shaking her head: "No need, no need, I’ll do it myself."

What a joke, it’s awkward enough living together, if this lack of boundary continues, who knows what could happen with all the sparks flying?

She must remain awake at all times! When young men and women get too close, scents influence one another, easily secreting dopamine, make people lose reason.

She has experienced this with Xiao Chong, she doesn’t want it twice, must maintain a safe distance with Lu Shouyue.

Lu Shouyue’s plan didn’t succeed, feeling a slight disappointment internally but naturally showed indifference on the outside, smiling while handing the hair dryer to Lin Wanwan and affectionately ruffling her wet hair, saying, "Okay, then you do it yourself."

He then promptly stepped back and began his own washing up.

Lin Wanwan wasn’t very used to a man’s affectionate actions towards her but also couldn’t comment much. The guy did it so naturally, while she exaggeratingly made it seem like one who’s inexperienced and too pedantic.

So she gave Lu Shouyue a slightly awkward yet polite smile, then turned slightly, plugged in the hair dryer and began to dry her hair.

Lu Shouyue, after instinctively ruffling Lin Wanwan’s hair, felt his heart racing, although externally displaying calm.

After Lu Shouyue completed his morning ablutions, Lin Wanwan almost dried her thick, long hair.

This rich second-generation heir, his family’s hairdryer is from that famous John Bull brand, costing over two thousand RMB each, characterized by low noise and quick drying of hair.

Lin Wanwan had not used before, only heard of it, but hadn’t splurged yet. Mainly her household’s hairdryer over a hundred RMB could get the job done, she hadn’t become accustomed to pursuing top-notch comfort in every aspect.

However, having used this hair dryer in the past two days, tried its effect, Lin Wanwan decided secretly to purchase one back.

Now that she has money, she shouldn’t treat herself poorly!
