Nianyang easily earned a windfall of two thousand five hundred, and even found a backing for her future path. She was overjoyed!
Indeed, for a person, one must have money. Only with money can one have confidence!
What gave Nianyang more confidence was the fact that Tuanzi told her that, due to saving the head of the Ruan Family, she was rewarded with 10 Life Value by the space. Coupled with the 6 Life Value she previously earned, Nianyang now had 16 Life Value in total, meaning she could exchange for laboratory access!
Nianyang was so excited she couldn't wait to go back. Impatiently, she exchanged 10 Life Value for laboratory access, and with the remaining 6 Life Value, she asked Tuanzi to help her exchange for over a dozen kinds of healing herbs to prepare for treating her aunt's asthma.
After doing all this, Nianyang asked, "Tuanzi, why did saving someone this time reward 10 Life Value?"
It was twice the amount when saving Dou Dou!
Tuanzi said, [The situation was different. This time, if not for you, the head of the Ruan Family would have certainly died, so the Life Value reward is more generous.]
So saving people also rewards different Life Values based on the severity and urgency?
Nianyang nodded, thinking that this ancestor was surely a person of character!
Alright, now the laboratory can be used, and the herbs are ready. I can't wait to go back and use the laboratory to develop medicine!
Nianyang was happily walking back in the direction she came, but after a few steps, Tuanzi's alert voice came, [Oh no, master, you've been targeted by street thugs from the black market.]
Nianyang's eyelid twitched, "What does that mean?"
Tuanzi said very seriously, [Master, there are many street thugs and thieves in this black market. You were too ostentatious just now in the pharmacy, so the local gang leader has set his eyes on you.]
"What should I do now?"
Nianyang's face turned pale in an instant. She was truly careless. She forgot that this wasn't the stable society of the future, especially since this was a chaotic black market. She was just a little girl with no fighting ability, and after making such a big splash, it was inevitable that people would take notice. What should she do?
[Master, run quickly.]
Nianyang, "..."
She thought this Space Spirit would have a way to help her, but it seems she was too naive!
Before she could gather her thoughts, the thugs watching her in the shadows quickly rushed over to block her path, "Little girl, hand over the two thousand five hundred in your hand, and maybe we'll let you go if you know what's good for you."
Nianyang silently counted; there were six thugs in total, all of them tall and physically imposing, each with a fierce and menacing air.
Nianyang thought if it were just one or two, she could still use the silver needles from the space to poke them, but six at once, she better run quickly!
Tuanzi promptly advised, [Master, run into the alley on the left.]
At such a time, she naturally had to listen to Tuanzi. Nianyang instinctively turned and ran to the left. She had worked hard to earn the two thousand five hundred, losing it would be too disappointing.
Since drinking the Space Spiritual Spring Water, Nianyang's stamina had improved greatly, and she didn't feel tired at all while running.
Of course, the thugs were no slouches either, and they were in hot pursuit of Nianyang.
As Nianyang ran, she thought of ways to escape. Just then, she saw two men approaching from not far away, one of whom was very handsome and seemed somewhat familiar!
Right, it was him!
That Li brother she bumped into on the first day of her rebirth, the one whose car she scraped!

Today, Li Tingyan and a few subordinates came to the black market to look for someone, as a group of pirates had stolen supplies from their ship.
The others went to the southwest to scout the terrain, while he and a few remaining people stayed here to search for clues.
Suddenly, hurried footsteps approached from the front. Just as he was about to look up, a girl's fragrant and soft body abruptly collided into his chest, and his whole body stiffened.
