Doctor Niu immediately added, “Edible, and non-toxic.”

Fu Zhonghai looked at the unfamiliar cardboard box and the biscuits inside, then said directly,
“Take a squad and go check it out first.”

“Yes, sir!”

Fu Chen’an responded at once and led thirty fully armed men into that alley.

Standing in front of the strange curtain, Fu Chen’an gestured,
“Enter!”

He was the first to walk in, followed closely by the thirty men.

The next moment, Fu Chen’an was shocked—only he had come in.

Where were the others?

The soldiers who entered were now standing in ruins, looking at each other in confusion.

“Where’s the shop? Where are the merchants?”

No, more importantly— where is the general?!

The soldiers panicked and began searching all around.

But aside from broken walls and ruins, there was nothing!

In a hurry, the team leader decisively ordered, “Half of you stay here, the rest come back with me to report to the Marshal!”

“Yes, sir!”

Just as they were about to move, they saw Fu Chen’an walk out from that curtain again, looking confused. “Why didn’t you guys come in?”

Everyone’s hair stood on end.

The team leader swallowed nervously, suppressing his fear. “Young General… we did go in, but inside was only ruins… you weren’t there…”

Fu Chen’an was completely confused. “How could that be? Try again.”

Something was wrong.

Fu Chen’an led everyone to test it a few more times— and it was always the same.

He vaguely realized… maybe only he could see it.

Fu Chen’an took the silver and copper coins they had gathered and went in once more.

As a result, he bumped right into Xiao Yingchun.

She had just heard the back door’s sensor go “Welcome” several times in a row.

It happened again and again, making her anxious, so she got up to check.

And then bumped right into Fu Chen’an— and was startled by the knife in his hand.

She forced a nervous laugh and stepped back. “Y-You came back, huh…”

Fu Chen’an saw the fear in her eyes fixed on the knife and instinctively explained, “I came to buy things.”

He then placed a piece of gray-yellow sheepskin-wrapped silver and copper coins onto the counter. “These— how many of those biscuits and water from last time can they buy?”

Xiao Yingchun looked at the scattered small pieces of silver, silver ingots, and copper coins on the counter, and her gaze was drawn to the two silver ingots.

-Small pieces of silver refers to silver pieces that are scattered, have no specifications for size, weight, or shape, and are of varying sizes, as opposed to silver ingots that are cast into fixed shapes and weights.

-copper coins

These two silver ingots were bigger than the ones from last time!

And with those pieces of silver and copper coins added…

Xiao Yingchun swallowed a mouthful of saliva and, trying to remain calm, pointed to the twenty boxes of compressed biscuits and water that had just been delivered in the corner.

“You can take all of them. That’s all there is for now…”

Fu Chen’an nodded and focused on the key point, “Then when I come next time, could you prepare more? Fifty boxes of each?”

Xiao Yingchun didn’t hesitate, “No problem. Come pick them up tomorrow.”

Twenty boxes of compressed biscuits, twenty boxes of various brands of mineral water— Xiao Yingchun, feeling a bit guilty, also added a few boxes of instant noodles and some cans of canned meat from the storage room. After thinking it over, she also gave him a bottle of Erguotou (a strong Chinese liquor).

-Erguotou: a strong Chinese distilled liquor, known for its high alcohol content and distinctive flavor.

Fu Chen’an sheathed his knife and, with his long arms and legs, moved the goods out the back door in several trips.

Once everything was taken and the man had left, Xiao Yingchun swallowed again.

Close the door!

Head to the pawnshop!
