Chapter 10: 010 Jade Space

It seems I do still have a Space on me, but where could it be? That's right, the birthmark! Some Spaces use birthmarks as their carriers. Excited, Tian Sisi continued to search her body, and finally found a faint mark on the inside of her wrist, where she wore her bracelet. The pattern matched the one on the bracelet, which was why Tian Sisi had not been able to find it for so long.

Tian Sisi touched the mark on her wrist, and in a blur of vision, she found herself in a strange place—a courtyard about half an acre in size. Apart from a well, the yard was filled with bizarrely shaped trees. The trees were not tall, about the height of a person, and had no leaves. Yet, they bore clusters and clusters of fruit, the size of pearls, round and plump like grapes, with colors ranging from deep to light: red, green, purple, black. The yard was filled with this one type of tree, with probably fifty to sixty of them.

She approached the well and looked down, the well was bottomless. Above the well's mouth was a bucket. Tian Sisi lowered the bucket and had to exert all her strength to draw up just half a bucket of water. She scooped up some water with her hands and drank it; the water was slightly warm, with a hint of sweetness, it tasted even better than Farmer's Spring water. Tian Sisi couldn't help but drink a few more mouthfuls.

Tian Sisi pushed open the vermilion gate, and inside was a room emitting the fragrance of liquor. The room was not large, about fifty to sixty square meters, with the floor paved with white marble tiles. In the center, there were two pools, one large and one small. The large pool was the size of a swimming pool, while the small one was only the size of a basin.

The fragrance of wine was emanating from the large pool, which brimmed with a jade-green liquid, glowing and with a depth that was not visible. The intoxicating aroma of alcohol wafted through the air. Beside the large pool was the small pool, filled with a milk-like liquid, the surface level with the pool's edge. Tian Sisi noticed a small notch on the edge of the small pool, through which a very thick milky liquid slowly flowed into the large pool. It was truly a slow flow, hundreds of times slower than the pace of a snail. By Tian Sisi's estimation, it would take at least a week for this liquid to flow into the larger pool.

What were these two pools used for? Could they be liquor pools? She looked around and spotted a tall cabinet in the corner of the room, covered with many drawers. Tian Sisi walked over and pulled one open, inside was a notebook, written in brush-calligraphy. Fortunately, it was in a regular script, so Tian Sisi could understand it. It contained the method for making a type of liquor called "beauty wine", claiming that whether men or women drink a cup of this liquor daily, one can remain youthful forever.

The other drawers were the same, each containing a liquor recipe—some for treating various chronic diseases, some for extending life, some harmful ones, as well as many ancient recipes that had been lost over time. Tian Sisi was dazzled looking through them.

From the notes in the largest drawer, Tian Sisi learned that this space was called the Jade Space, which only the direct descendants of the He Family could enter. The He Family? It seems that the real father of the original body's owner surnamed He. Tian Sisi continued to read, and the large pool turned out to be the Jade Pond. No matter what type of liquor was brewed, if some of the jade liquid from the Jade Pond was mixed in, the resulting liquor would be as exceptional as the finest jade brew, its aroma could waft ten miles away.

The small pool was the Jade Pool, the liquid inside was Spiritual Liquid, but it couldn't be drunk directly. It had to be fermented into the liquor to be effective. Ordinary people who frequently consumed liquor with Spiritual Liquid could extend their life and maintain a healthy body.

The water in the well of the courtyard was just ordinary water, except it was a Grade Water. However, the trees were wine yeast trees. During the brewing process, mixing the black fruit flesh from the wine yeast trees into the grains would allow the grains to ferment, acting just like the yeast, only that the effect of the fruit from the wine yeast trees was much better.

The remaining fruit peels could be thrown into the Jade Pond, where they would automatically transform into Jade Liquid. Beyond the courtyard, there were over twenty acres of cropland where the ancestors of the He Family had planted many crops—rice, sorghum, corn, wheat, sweet potatoes, flowers, and so on—, all to be used as raw materials for brewing. Additionally, there was a mountain with many fruit trees and medicinal herbs, as well as many animals, all of which could be used in brewing.

In summary, everything in this Space was for the purpose of brewing liquor. When Tian Sisi realized it was intended for brewing, her heart cooled by half. In an era where even food was scarce, where would there be spare grains for brewing? Even Old Man Tian at home would only dare to drink a small cup of sorghum liquor per meal, and that sorghum was specifically grown by Tian Manjin in his private plot, not much of it, just two parts of land, barely enough for Old Man Tian himself.

Right, there are fields outside, Tian Sisi hurried out and indeed saw a vast expanse of farmland, the crops were all ripe, golden and red. Thankfully, the crops in this Space wouldn't rot even if they weren't harvested but, with so much grain, how can she harvest it all by herself? Moreover, she has never done farm work, you know? God, since you gave me this Space, why not evolve its function to automatically harvest? That would be so much better!

Tian Sisi sighed deeply while looking up at the sky, but soon she cheered up again. In this era of scarcity, having such a Space was a huge security. Although the Tian Family didn't worry about food, it was only relative to poor families. In Tian Sisi's eyes, who was used to good living, a diet of dry meals with the occasional glimpse of meat was really unsatisfactory.

Now it's great, there's no need to worry about food. Didn't they say that there are fruit trees and wild game in the mountains? It's said in books that those wild creatures won't harm the owner of the Space and are quite abundant. It should be fine to catch some for eating, right? There's no hurry, wait for a chance to go to Yuequan Mountain, then take the wild game out and just say they were picked up from Yuequan Mountain. Now, off to explore the mountain first.

The mountain was not high, almost the same height as Yuequan Mountain, but it was a bit bigger. There really were plenty of fruit trees on the mountain, a variety of types, with fruits from both the south and the north mixed together. Tian Sisi wasn't surprised; the Space was always like this, not distinguishing between hot and cold or north and south. Just like how she was only wearing a hoodie and sweatpants right now and didn't feel cold at all.

Tian Sisi picked some fruit from the osmanthus and ate them. There really was plenty of wild game on the mountain; rabbits kept scurrying about, and she actually saw several snakes as thick as a wrist slithering through the grass with pointy heads, which scared Tian Sisi's legs into jelly. Although she knew that these snakes wouldn't bite her, she still instinctively felt fear.

Tian Sisi no longer had the mood to climb further up. Who knows if there might be pythons up there? Better to wait for another time. But where did that blanket and beef jerky come from? There was no blanket or beef jerky in the Space!

Then she came to a familiar place, the shopping mall from her previous life. The mall looked just like when she used to visit it, with shelves full of a dazzling array of goods, rice cabinets filled with snow-white rice, and the meat, vegetables, and fruits were also abundantly displayed. Only, there wasn't a single person in the mall.

Could this mall have traveled through time with her? But why? Where are the people from the mall? Tian Sisi was bewildered. She didn't know why she had transmigrated. Logically, this Space should belong to the original host, so why did this modern mall also come along?

Unable to figure it out, Tian Sisi was too lazy to think more. Since it's come to this, let it be. Since it's given to her, then she should just enjoy it. As long as she doesn't use this Space for evil, all she wants right now is to earn enough money with this Space to buy a camera. Although there are quite a few cameras in the mall, they cannot be taken out. Cameras from her later life are completely different from those now.

Tian Sisi remembered the mall being quite large, with a total of six floors, including jewelry, clothing, amusement park, supermarket, and food court, all complete. She followed the stairs up and indeed, everything was there, but since there was no electricity, the amusement park couldn't operate. Tian Sisi went to the mall's warehouse, which was probably full of goods due to a new opening.

The freezer also stored a lot of fresh products. Luckily, the Space had the function of keeping things fresh; otherwise, these fresh items would have gone bad long ago without electricity. Now they are still as fresh as ever. Tian Sisi smiled contently. Good, no need to worry about running out of snacks in the future, and there will be plenty of meat. But she needs to come up with a good excuse so the Tian Family will not suspect her Space.
