Gasp! She's a Time Traveler Using Modern Tech to Improve Ancient Life-Chapter 616 - 614: Wrapping Up

After walking more than ten meters, Lin Wanwan applied a little force, and Lu Shouyue finally let go of Lin Wanwan’s hand as if he had just noticed.

"Were you scared?"

"No."

Lin Wanwan shook her head, reached out to smooth the hair on her forehead, and said, "I didn’t expect someone to keep such fierce pit bulls nearby; it’s surprising that the Ancient City doesn’t ban aggressive dogs."

In Yongcheng City, not to mention pit bulls, even intelligent German Shepherds are not allowed in the city, only in suburban areas.

Lu Shouyue said, "They are definitely banned; she just didn’t comply. And these two dogs seem trained for competitions; don’t worry, pulling out the radish brings out the mud, that woman won’t have a good end."

"Dog fighting? Does Huaxia allow dog fighting?" Lin Wanwan was a bit surprised.

Lu Shouyue couldn’t help but laugh: "Wanwan, I wish everyone adhered to the rules as you do."

Lin Wanwan realized she had asked a silly question, her face blushing slightly, and she chuckled dryly: "These people are quite bold."

Once in the car, with the bodyguard driving, the two sat in the backseat.

When Lu Shouyue didn’t speak, his expression appeared somewhat stern.

He didn’t believe in coincidences; there were very few coincidences in his world.

Leaving the house and encountering a woman with two pit bull dogs that suddenly attacked seemed unlikely to be a mere accident.

He didn’t want to alarm Lin Wanwan, so he avoided the details, but in his mind, he’d already started pondering how to investigate and handle this matter.

Seated in the car, Lin Wanwan finally had time to check her phone messages.

The past couple of days, in the modern era, she’d been preoccupied with scaring Princess Consort Yang and hadn’t focused on anything else.

Seeing the numerous unread messages on her phone, indeed, Lu Shouyue had messaged her via WeChat last night.

His mother, Ye Yinyin, had also messaged her, asking if she liked the bag she picked for her; the bag was quite popular, supposedly favored by young girls.

Lin Wanwan replied: I really like it, thank you, Auntie.

She’d planned to reciprocate by gifting Ye Yinyin a bracelet crafted by a Great Tang Imperial Goldsmith.

Recently, acquiring famous paintings and calligraphy in Chang’an had been difficult; she’d only managed to collect one piece by the great Ouyang Xun, but she’d ordered numerous ornaments and jewelry.

There were many Imperial Goldsmiths in Chang’an City, and besides their regular service terms, to make a living, they accepted work outside the palace as well.

Finding outstanding craftsmen to customize a product wasn’t difficult; it simply required money.

In the modern era, Lin Wanwan’s money was challenging to liquidate, but it was different in the Great Tang; she wasn’t short on money, wealthy enough to rival a nation.

Firstly, the financial oversight in Great Tang couldn’t compare to the modern big data era; secondly, the Soap and Music Workshop she co-managed with Princess Changle generated impressive daily revenue, easily laundering Lin Wanwan’s additional funds.

After all, the pepper and pearl glass hardly cost her anything, and funneling them into the workshop’s cash flow, and distributing some profit to Li Changle was like paying taxes in the Great Tang, without any worry.

Her immense wealth allowed her to sweep through treasures without attracting attention.

In Chang’an, during the prosperous Zhen Guan era, the noblewomen customized countless treasures daily. With the palace nobility and their related aristocrats being so numerous, no one would particularly notice the actions of Lin Wanwan, a Secondary Fifth Rank Village Lady.

Besides rare treasures, Lin Wanwan also procured numerous medicinal herbs in Chang’an City, preparing to open a pharmacy in the future.

In Great Tang, it was common for nobles to stockpile medicinal herbs, so Lin Wanwan’s actions weren’t conspicuous.

Compared to established families with their high-end distribution channels, an outsider tycoon like Lin Wanwan sweeping the market wouldn’t be surprising.

Shortly after her WeChat message, Ye Yinyin likely had her phone handy and responded promptly: glad you like it *^o^*

This Auntie Ye sure has a youthful mindset, even understanding emoticons!

Lin Wanwan couldn’t help but smile; it’s no wonder she looked so young, with a good attitude and a sparkle in her eyes, she radiated health from the inside out.

She didn’t seem old, and it wasn’t just due to beauty maintenance.

Thinking of this, Lin Wanwan glanced sideways, her peripheral vision catching a glimpse of Lu Shouyue, who inherited quite a bit of his mother’s good looks.

Retracting her gaze, she continued to view the messages on her phone.

The company group was lively, with the vice president emailing her, saying there was an embroidery exhibition in Gusu, and the company had been invited to participate with products.

Since most of these were artworks purchased by Lin Wanwan, he asked if she could contact the embroidery master behind them.

Lin Wanwan couldn’t possibly divulge the embroidery master’s contact information; these individuals were in the Great Tang; how could she explain?

Last time, Li Shimin had gifted her slaves, two of them hailing from the Imperial Embroideress background, exceptionally skilled, and Lin Wanwan couriered their works back to Yongcheng, the company’s vice president decided to include them in the exhibition.

Besides work-related matters, there were trivial issues she hadn’t promptly responded to earlier; now she wasn’t in a rush.

Her middle school group became lively again due to a recent donation to teacher Chen, now discussing a reunion.

Checking the timing, it was right before Gu Jingyu’s due date in May. After contemplating for a while, she decided to attend if she had the time and paid a thousand for the event fee to the organizer.

After handling all messages, they arrived at the hotel. Lin Wanwan put away her phone and followed Lu Shouyue out of the car.

After a delightful meal, Lin Wanwan parted ways with Lu Shouyue, using the excuse of heading to a foreign hospital with a master, she called her own car instead of accepting the hotel transportation Lu Shouyue provided. 𝑓𝘳𝘦𝑒𝑤𝑒𝘣𝘯ℴ𝘷𝘦𝓁.𝑐𝑜𝑚

This time she was up to some covert operations, avoiding familiar faces, and preferably dealing with strangers!

The things Lin Wanwan was doing were akin to the activities of a fugitive, needing to avoid attention, and requiring the most essential thing: money.

With enough money, everything became easier.

After forty minutes of driving, she was beyond fifty kilometers from the small courtyard where she opened the Space-Time Gate; concerning the Great Tang, this allowed her to update the gate’s coordinates.

Lin Wanwan paid the fare and headed straight to the pre-booked party villa, then ordered a courier service to buy a high-end mountain bike and a black raincoat.

With money, everything was simplified; the mountain bike arrived at the villa quickly.

Lin Wanwan securely closed the villa door, entered the storeroom, ensured safety, and opened the Space-Time Gate to reach the Great Tang.

In Great Tang, the Space-Time Gate had indeed moved from the Imperial Palace to a remote wilderness.

It was late, quiet, and sparsely populated in Great Tang, with a chilling breeze adding an eerie ambiance.

A remote wilderness was perfect, avoiding notice! Lin Wanwan wasn’t fazed by the eeriness, only uncertain which direction led to Chang’an City.

Fortunately, Lin Wanwan had the foresight to buy a compass from an outdoor equipment store and researched the maps around Chang’an City during the Zhen Guan era, printing them out.

Though the accuracy couldn’t be guaranteed, the general direction wouldn’t be off.

After determining the direction, Lin Wanwan packed away the compass, retrieved the black raincoat, and covered herself and the bike, wearing a hat equipped with a flashlight.

She needed to hurry on the road, aiming to reach Tonghua Gate in Chang’an City before dawn to meet Kun Lun in the morning.

Earlier, she’d instructed Kun Lun, waiting outside the Imperial Palace for her, to travel to the residence of elder Sun in Chang’an City at the right time. Then, A Jing would directly carry the note given to her, leading the group of servants back to the manor.

Her decision to involve Kun Lun and A Jing this time was due to their loyalty and the fact that A Jing was a mute who couldn’t read.
