Rebirth: Divine Doctor, Sweet Wife

Their hometown in the Qing River Brigade was inland and even Jiangchong City was not as prosperous. Very few fruits were imported into that region, and they were a rare find on the black market.

She had brought some out before, but she had always exercised extreme caution and she only brought out very little. It was a fraction of what she had stored in her interspace.

Nancheng was different, however. It was a large city in the southern region and it was near the southern orchards. Fruits were more common here, and the city was prosperous, so it had comparatively more resources.

Mo Beihan thought and nodded. “They’re not as rare here as they are in our hometown, but there is still a scarcity of them. If you offer them for sale, they will command a high price, almost as much as meat. Sometimes even higher.”

In these times, transportation was not as convenient as it would be later on. Fruits were delicate and difficult to store. Much of it would be wasted if it were to be transported.

So there were few fruits, even in Nancheng.

Gu Qingyao’s eyes brightened. She understood!

“In that case, we’ll stay here awhile longer, and I’ll sell some fruits. I have so many in the interspace – they’re a waste of space.”

The fruits in her interspace were not the rare types. In their previous life, she had obtained them cheaply from orchards during her travels with Mo Beihan. Some had been acquired during bad years when she took pity on the fruit farmers and had especially collected them.

When they got back to the capital, she sold off a portion of it, but there was still a large portion in her interspace that she had not managed to sell.

Now that she was back to this era, if she could sell these things off, it would be fairly profitable.

The prices that she could obtain at this time could never be matched in later years!

Now, besides these resources and antiques, she and Mo Beihan only had about ten thousand dollars in cash. Even though it sounded like a lot, Gu Qingyao knew that it was a far cry from what rich families had.

Although everyone in today’s society seemed very poor, Gu Qingyao knew that in China’s five thousand years of history, there would always be rich people.

When the era of freedom arrived, the gap would instantly become apparent.

She intended this lifetime to be an accomplished one. The heights she had reached in her previous life no longer satisfied her. Furthermore, it was up to the younger generation to regain the Gu family’s former glory, and that would require a certain financial footing.

So her resources were worth the most at the moment.

Mo Beihan could see that Gu Qingyao was different now. He nodded. “All right. People spend more here, and there is a great demand for fruits. I’ll bring you around the black markets here and the black markets of the neighboring cities. You will certainly be able to sell a large quantity.”

They finished their discussion and continued eating the watermelon. In a short while, they consumed half a watermelon. After they packed up, Mo Beihan brought Gu Qingyao back.

They had already eaten lunch, so they went straight to the black market. This was one of the four biggest black markets in Nancheng, and she managed to sell many things.

It was evening, but not yet dark. They didn’t wish to waste time, so Mo Beihan brought Gu Qingyao to a smaller market in the vicinity.

Although the demand here was not as great as the black market, it was better than nothing!

Mo Beihan and Gu Qingyao only went back when night fell.

They did not need to cook. To save time and for the sake of convenience, they just ate food from the interspace. When they had finished their dinner, they rested awhile, and both of them entered the interspace.
