A 1970s Mailbox to the Future: Trading Supplies with the Nation

[Not reborn] [No transmigration] [Exchange across time and space] [Military marriage] [The heroine’s early story focuses on her own struggle] [Feel-good power fantasy] [Face-slapping] [Building a fortune] [Adorable child]

Bai Zhi’s husband went missing while on a mission, leaving her to raise their child alone. Her in-laws saw her as a burden.

In a moment of despair, she discovered an old mailbox at home and casually slipped inside a crayon drawing her son had made of “the People’s Liberation Army uncle winning a battle.”

Afterward, a bottle of special fever medicine and a note appeared in the mailbox: “A precious historical artifact from the ‘Striving Years’ has been received. This is an equivalent exchange., National Temporal Archives.”

Bai Zhi understood! This mailbox connected to the future! She began making carefully planned “deliveries.”

She put a military merit medal inside and received a complete set of blueprints for a tractor’s construction and maintenance in return;

She put in an oral-history diary recording the entire village’s struggles and received seed potatoes that could produce a high yield in return;

She put in the last letter her husband had sent her and received the most advanced radio technology materials in return, while unexpectedly learning a clue to where her husband was trapped.
