Su Wantang rode her bicycle to the state-run restaurant.

In those days, the prices of food in state-run restaurants were very low.

A bowl of congee with preserved egg and lean pork costs 5 cents, a steamed bun costs 3 cents, a twisted roll costs 2 cents, a large portion of braised pork costs 2.5 yuan, and a whole roasted duck costs 6 yuan.

Su Wantang ordered a bowl of congee with preserved egg and lean pork, a salted duck egg, and a fried dough stick.

These only cost 1.1 yuan in total.

In those days, wages were not high; a city employee's monthly salary was only twenty yuan.

The wealth her mother left her was enough for her to live a life of plenty, with more money than she could ever spend.

Su Wantang placed the plate in front of her, sat down at the table, and scooped up a spoonful of congee with preserved egg and lean pork.

The preserved egg and lean pork congee is stewed until it is soft, sticky, and sweet, melting in your mouth, and the meat pieces inside are also very tender.

Salted duck eggs have very thin shells. When you gently peel them open, the yolk inside is golden and oozing with golden honey oil.

It tastes great with just one bite.

The duck and chicken eggs of this era are completely different from those of chickens and ducks that are mechanically produced and raised with hormones in the future. These are all natural, without any artificial heating, and taste extremely delicious.

The fried dough sticks of this era are not made with gutter oil like they will be in the future, so they are safe and reliable to eat.

Su Wantang enjoyed the meal very much.

Before leaving, Su Wantang looked at the employees serving food in the state-run restaurant and asked, "How many salted duck eggs are left?"

"There are only 50 left."

"Where are the fried dough sticks?"

"These are the ones left."

Su Wantang looked down at the food displayed in the glass cabinet. "I'll take all of these."

"Huh?" The waiter wondered if he had misheard.

"I'll take them all. How much?" Su Wantang smiled slightly.

Her smile made the waiter's face burn, and he lowered his head in embarrassment. "I need to calculate... these will cost 23 yuan in total."

"Okay." Su Wantang took out 23 yuan from her crossbody bag and handed it to the waiter. "Please pack it up for me."

"Okay." The waiter quickly started packing.

All that food sold out in no time, so they don't have to work today.

When packing the food, the waiter gave us a few extra plastic bags and a few extra pairs of chopsticks.

So much food was packed into two large bags.

"Thank you." Su Wantang smiled politely, picked up the two large bags, and left.

When they reached a secluded corner, Su Wantang waved her hand and put all of these things into her spatial storage!

There's so much food; we can eat it on the way to join the army.

Since the space has a preservation function, the food won't spoil no matter how long it's left out.

After eating and drinking her fill, Su Wantang was about to do something important.

She was searching for a treasure cave passed down from her ancestors.

In her past life, she remembered that her mother had told her the exact location of the treasure cave before she passed away, and that she should not easily tell anyone.

But she foolishly told Zhang Hongwei's family her location, and in the end, she suffered a miserable and destitute fate.

Now, on her way to join the army, she plans to dig out all the treasures from the cave and store them in her spatial storage.

Su Wantang rode her bicycle towards the mountain road.

Once she reached the top of the mountain and saw that no one was around, Su Wantang put the bicycle into her spatial storage.
