Memories of the Past

Cao Shu Tong watched as Purchasing Agent Zhang meticulously selected the fish fry, one by one, putting them into the bucket he brought. The number of fish fry in the bucket grew, and next to Purchasing Agent Zhang, someone was counting.
This time, the fish fry were not sold by weight but by quantity, so in the end, they just needed to see how many there were. After all, he couldn't deceive her; Purchasing Agent Zhang had been hoping Cao Shu Tong would sell him fish.
After more than an hour of bustling activity, Purchasing Agent Zhang finally finished selecting the fish fry he wanted to buy, and Cao Shu Tong's fish pond also became less crowded.
When Purchasing Agent Zhang personally transferred the points to Cao Shu Tong, he said something meaningful.
Purchasing Agent Zhang told Cao Shu Tong: "If the fish in Miss Cao's pond feel a bit unwell, you can try adding some Guang Yu to the pond."
After saying that, Purchasing Agent Zhang's group directly left Cao Shu Tong's house.
Cao Shu Tong was momentarily stunned by Purchasing Agent Zhang's words, only snapping back to reality when she heard the door close, and looked towards the fish in the pond.
She wondered, did Guang Yu have some new function she didn't know about? Why did Purchasing Agent Zhang say such a thing?
Ah! Thinking about it gave her a headache. To be on the safe side, she should add a little Guang Yu as a precaution.
She drew a little Guang Yu from her spatial dimension and poured it into the pond. The clear pond water combined with the halo effect of Guang Yu, looked like sparkling river water in the sunset waves, incredibly beautiful.
Cao Shu Tong only poured in a small amount of Guang Yu, not daring to add too much, fearing that things turn into their opposite when they reach an extreme, which might cause more problems. So, a little was enough.
After adding the Guang Yu, Cao Shu Tong again moved some fish fry from her spatial dimension and also placed the prepared leaf food into the pond for the fish to eat.
She then went into the plant room to check on the vegetables and fruits she was growing. Seeing that several fruit trees were probably about to bloom, she prepared to move some beehives out of her spatial dimension to pollinate the plants.
Through these plants, Cao Shu Tong realized that the seasons were now completely chaotic; these fruit trees were blooming at a time when they shouldn't.
Once these beehives were moved out, Cao Shu Tong didn't intend to move them back, but directly placed them on the second floor. Then, she just needed to remember to feed these honeybees sugar every day.
Cao Shu Tong harvested all the ripe fruits on the second floor, selecting a portion for home consumption, and preparing to sell the remaining fruits.
A few days ago, when she bought the wild boars and wild rabbits, she also saw fruits, and the selling price was truly very expensive, which made her discover a business opportunity.
She herself was not short of fruits; there were many in her spatial dimension. But not being short of food didn't mean not being short of points!
Some time ago, when she bought meat, she directly went from a points-rich woman to a points-pauper, ending up with only a tiny bit, which truly made her anxious. That's why she agreed to sell the fish fry, meaning she could start becoming wealthy again.
She took photos of these fruits and chose to sell them, waiting for the drone to arrive.
Then, instead of waiting for a drone, she waited for a person for a day, and it was an old acquaintance again!
Purchasing Agent Zhang, wasn't that an old acquaintance!
As soon as Cao Shu Tong opened the door, she saw Purchasing Agent Zhang's smiling eyes, which honestly made her a little afraid to look directly.
He seemed like an upright person, but the smile on his face was a bit "ruinous."
She knew what Purchasing Agent Zhang was here for; it was probably for her fruits. After all, she saw online that fruits were sold one portion per day, one type per portion, and you had to be early, otherwise there were none left. The prices were also very expensive, and tomorrow she would have to compete for them again.
Ah ~
She suddenly felt so rich, a hidden rich woman in the apocalypse, that was her!!!
She was so happy, but she couldn't laugh, haha haha ah ~
Let her laugh in her heart first, and then conveniently welcome Purchasing Agent Zhang into the room again.
Cao Shu Tong suddenly felt, had this Purchasing Agent Zhang been to her house many times already?
It seemed so, probably the most frequent visitor. Every time he came, it was for legitimate business.
Walking together under the eaves, Purchasing Agent Zhang saw the fruits Cao Shu Tong had piled at the door and suddenly let out a cry of surprise.
"Oh my goodness! How can such good fruits be placed on the ground? Won't they get damaged by touch!"
As he spoke, he carefully placed these fruits into the boxes he brought, which were exquisitely packaged, the kind of "one radish, one pit" boxes.
After Purchasing Agent Zhang finished inventorying these fruits, he transferred the points to Cao Shu Tong.
Then Cao Shu Tong prepared to invite this Purchasing Agent Zhang out.
But before she could even act, this Purchasing Agent Zhang spoke.
"Thank you very much today, Miss Cao. Our fruit supply has just started to run low recently, and this time it can last for a while."
Cao Shu Tong replied: "No need to thank me, I just lack points, and coincidentally had a batch of ripe fruits, so I just sold them conveniently."
Purchasing Agent Zhang smiled and said: "So that means, Miss Cao will continue to sell fruits to us next time?"
"Of course, if there are ripe fruits next time, I will consider selling them to you. After all, the storage conditions here are not very good, and fruits don't last long."
"Then I hope Miss Cao's fruits ripen soon."
"Oh right, so Miss Cao grows fruits herself. I wonder if, with these fruits, you could sell me some saplings?"
"Of course, the price is negotiable, I will definitely give Miss Cao a good price."
Cao Shu Tong said apologetically to Purchasing Agent Zhang: "Purchasing Agent Zhang, that might not be possible. I don't have any spare saplings myself. I didn't think of buying many back then, who knew the apocalypse would come... So, I'm sorry."
Standing at the door, watching Purchasing Agent Zhang's car gradually drive away, completely disappearing into the darkness, leaving no trace.
Returning to her room, Cao Shu Tong thought about the recent events, feeling a bit out of grasp. Everything had completely changed now, and she didn't know what to do in the future.
Moreover, the current time had not yet reached the point of her death in her previous life, but everything happening now made her feel, was this rebirth real?
Could it just be a dream of hers, just a dream that was too profound, which made her remember it forever!
But the feeling of lying on the cold ground, feeling her body temperature and life gradually leaving, how could it not be like a dream that could be so deeply etched in her memory!
Just after being reborn, she was extremely afraid of the cold, it was just that she was much better now, but that didn't erase the fact that she was afraid of the cold.
One must know that she was not originally a person afraid of the cold, and the original coastal city had no concept of winter, so why did she wake up and start being afraid of the cold?
Right! Right! Right!
She must be right!
She must have been reborn; this was her second chance, and she must seize the opportunity to live a better life, hoping she could live until the end of the apocalypse.
After rethinking, Cao Shu Tong gradually became resolute. Her current goal was to make herself live well every day, because the path ahead was unclear...
