[Seeking Favorites, Full Manuscript in Progress]
Lu Jia wakes up to find herself in a world in ruins.
This place was once swept by all kinds of natural disasters. Now that the calamities are over, it is a time of rebuilding from the ground up.
Alone in a strange world, Lu Jia wanders aimlessly among the refugees, only to have someone grab her and start making arrangements for her.
"This is your house!"
"This is your land!"
"Work hard, young one! Things will only get better from here!"
Lu Jia blinks at the shabby thatched hut and the vast wasteland choked with weeds.
Am I... rich now?
But this doesn't seem to be the right way to do it.
*
Someone in Lu Jia's family tree once ascended to immortality, and her ancestor left them a family heirloom: a jade thumb ring containing a pocket dimension.
It was passed down to her in this generation.
Ever since she was little, she'd been in the habit of stuffing things into the space from time to time: food, clothes, daily necessities, seeds...
Now, in a world where there's nothing to be had, all of it will come in handy.
