Gasp! She's a Time Traveler Using Modern Tech to Improve Ancient Life-Chapter 357 - 354: Such a Generous Senior Brother

Outside, Lin Wanwan always maintains a weak and gentle demeanor, never casually showcasing her mysterious strength.

So, of course, the goods were moved with the help of the four stewards from the truck.

The neighbor from across the street opened the door upon hearing the commotion and asked curiously, "Young lady, have you moved in to live here?"

Lin Wanwan replied, "No, just moving some things over first."

"Oh, do you need any help?" The neighbor, who had earned nearly two thousand from a dispute involving Lin Wanwan recently, was naturally enthusiastic upon seeing the rich client.

"No need, the stewards will handle it."

After exchanging a few pleasantries with the neighbor, Lin Wanwan went inside the house, not wanting to socialize any further.

The neighborhood is an older type, not quite rundown but lacking elevators which certainly affects the speed of moving the goods.

The four moving stewards took an hour and a half to finish moving everything. After Lin Wanwan settled the payment, the four bid farewell and left.

Lin Wanwan looked at the growing darkness outside, drew the light-blocking curtains in the living room, locked the door, turned on the lights, opened the Space-Time Gate, and returned to the Great Tang.

At this moment in the Great Tang, dawn was starting to break, and it had been only three days and one night since Lin Wanwan left the inn.

Before entering the mountains, Lin Wanwan had rented a warehouse at the dock, preparing all the arrangements for moving goods from the modern era.

Lin Wanwan swiftly climbed a tree, retrieved her outer garment hidden among the leaves, shook off the dust and possible little bugs, then draped it on herself, jumped down from the tree, stepped out of the forest, patted her hands, and walked calmly towards the Daoist temple gate.

The young Daoists she encountered along the way cast strange glances at Lin Wanwan.

Lin Wanwan’s appearance at this moment was indeed a bit abrupt, because although this Daoist temple had rooms serving as inns, it was still early, and the gate of the female courtyard was likely not yet open.

But Lin Wanwan walked with such calm assurance, leading the young Daoists to doubt if they had gotten the timing wrong, perhaps the courtyards for women were indeed open.

Lin Wanwan didn’t care about what the young Daoists were thinking as she passed them by, descending the mountain temple gates, then veered off the main path and entered a nearby cemetery.

This was the resting place of those who died in foreign lands without the means to transport their bodies home, a part of the potter’s field.

Through this area lay the dense forest, where Lin Wanwan had hidden her other clothes in a secret tree hollow.

Early in the morning, with the sun still shyly peeking through the clouds, apart from birds chirping, there was no other sound, the entire mountain was very tranquil.

Leisurely, Lin Wanwan donned her ancient outfit, packed her white sneakers into a cloth bag, switched to embroidered shoes, and gracefully walked out of the forest, heading downhill.

Before reaching the bottom of the hill, Lin Wanwan could see Kun Lun from afar, waiting with a horse.

This loyal fellow, not knowing exactly when he arrived, might have been waiting since before dawn.

Lin Wanwan had only given a rough time, yet he remembered it, and upon seeing Kun Lun, Lin Wanwan felt a warmth in her heart.

In the Great Tang, there were always so many who cared for her deeply, treating her words as gospel.

Such genuine sentiment couldn’t be bought with money in the modern world, Lin Wanwan truly enjoyed the privilege of belonging to that era.

The era instilled these loyal servants with a strict sense of hierarchy and the idea of devotion to their master. Occasional awakenings of personal consciousness were met with societal criticism, branding them rebels who were no good.

Periodically looking up the mountain path, Kun Lun quickly spotted Lin Wanwan, flashing a smile with gleaming white teeth while leading a rented horse, running towards her.

Lin Wanwan handed the cloth bag containing the modern shoes to Kun Lun and mounted the horse, not galloping but advancing leisurely, appreciating the beautiful scenery of Hai City from thousands of years ago.

"Kun Lun, let’s head directly to the warehouse."

Before leaving, Lin Wanwan instructed Hua Nong to rent the warehouse and purchase a ship cost-free, with three days and one night passed, she assumed it would be taken care of.

"Sure." Kun Lun responded, silently leading the horse towards the dock.

The sun rose higher, and the weather turned warm.

Lin Wanwan donned the curtain hat hung on the horse, both for shade and to block curious gazes around.

After approximately half an hour, Lin Wanwan and Kun Lun arrived in front of a small warehouse, Kun Lun pulled out a large key, moving forward to unlock it.

While sitting on horseback, Lin Wanwan scrutinized the surroundings of the warehouse.

It was about five to six hundred meters from the dock, and this warehouse was among a row of warehouses and quite inconspicuous, which largely met Lin Wanwan’s requirement for concealment.

Two hundred meters away, many laborers were busily coming and going, with a newly berthed cargo ship at the dock, unloading many goods that needed transporting by laborers.

The early morning workers were the struggling masses hustling for survival, not the idlers or wanderers looking for trouble so early on.

After examining the surroundings, Lin Wanwan felt quite satisfied. Initially, when she entrusted the matter to Hua Nong, she was somewhat uneasy, but it seemed to work out well, and as expected, money could make the impossible possible.

Even if Hua Nong lacked Sun Chuyao’s skills, Lin Wanwan’s identity jade token and money made warehouse rental not difficult, though buying the ship status was unknown.

After dismounting, Lin Wanwan instructed Kun Lun to call Hua Nong over, while she entered the warehouse alone, locked the door, and smiled as she saw the golden dust floating in the air.

Time to unleash strength to move the goods!

Opening the Space-Time Gate, Lin Wanwan transported everything from her Hai City home piece by piece without pause, taking a full forty minutes to finish.

By then, Lin Wanwan was drenched in sweat, so she returned to her modern home’s bathroom, stripped off both modern clothes and Hanfu, took a shower, then donned Hanfu anew, and returned to the warehouse in the Great Tang.

Lin Wanwan glanced at the neatly stacked goods in the warehouse, showing a satisfied smile, then opened the warehouse door, awaiting Hua Nong and Kun Lun’s arrival.

Kun Lun was long accustomed to Lin Wanwan always moving solo, and Hua Nong occasionally encountered such occurrences, not finding it unusual.

Their master disliked traveling with a crowd, inevitably sometimes going solo.

When they arrived at the warehouse, seeing half of it filled with high-grade cotton cloth and silk, Hua Nong was stunned and couldn’t help but ask, "Wow! Mistress, is all this from Senior Brother Zhen? Such a generous senior brother!"

"Indeed. Did you find the ship I asked you to locate?"

"Regarding Mistress, yes, I asked the broker at the dock for connections, involving a newly launched ship from Yangzhou, just handed to Lu Ping, the external steward of the Lu Family from Wu County here, who agreed to let us have it first.

Although the expenses are substantial, including broker fees and gifts to Lu Family’s external steward, totaling five hundred pieces of silk, four hundred pieces of red gauze, and six hundred coins.

I have already provided a deposit of ten gold pieces, and now with this warehouse full of fine fabrics, it’s manageable, initially worrying about not having enough money."

Lin Wanwan laughed, "Why use silk for the ship’s payment, look, just settle the account with the pepper instead."

"Pepper?" Hua Nong followed the direction of Lin Wanwan’s pointing, breath held, "Mistress, are all these bags filled with pepper?!" 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝙬𝙚𝓫𝒏𝓸𝓿𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝙤𝓶

Mistress’s senior brother is so generous!
