“I already informed the regular suppliers that there was a change in ownership. How did she manage to accumulate so much credit?”

Uncle Liang gave an awkward laugh. “A few of the old suppliers gave a little on credit at first because you told them, but when it became hard to get paid back, they stopped.”

“So she turned to a few new suppliers and bought goods on credit from them.”

Xiao Yingchun understood and smiled, “Thanks for letting me know, Uncle Liang. Please help me tell them the truth—whoever they gave the goods to, they should go after that person for the money. If they can’t get it back, they’d better hurry and file a lawsuit.”

Uncle Liang agreed and hung up the phone.

Xiao Yingchun scratched her head, hesitating whether to confront Ge Chunyu directly, but after thinking about it, she felt there was no need.

In matters like this, whoever acts first loses the upper hand.

Besides, she wasn’t the one who owed the debt—she wasn’t going to bother with it.

Around noon, Uncle Liang delivered the first batch of goods: 3,000 boxes of compressed biscuits and 2,000 boxes of water.

Considering her aunt’s actions earlier, Xiao Yingchun didn’t hesitate to pay the balance for this batch in full. She also told Uncle Liang, “When you deliver the next batch, I’ll pay you on the spot.”

Uncle Liang was so happy the crow’s feet at the corners of his eyes were dancing: “That’s great! You needed this batch urgently, so I paid upfront to transfer stock from others.”

*crow’s feet at the corners of his eyes were dancing is a figurative way describing someone smiling very happily.

Xiao Yingchun didn’t bargain on the price for this batch. After all, the profit margin was huge, and she just wanted things handled cleanly.

Since only Fu Chen’an could enter the supermarket, Xiao Yingchun also had Uncle Liang leave behind two flatbed carts that could fit through the back door. She used the automated stocking function to load up the two carts.

Uncle Liang readily agreed and promised to deliver the second batch later.

Xiao Yingchun locked the main entrance of the store, opened the back door, and used the system to neatly stack the compressed biscuits and water bottles near the rear entrance.

Before long, Fu Chen’an arrived. When he saw the flatbed carts full of goods, his eyes lit up.

Xiao Yingchun pointed at the two carts, “Take one cart out at a time and bring the empty one back. I’ll load it again—this way, it’ll be faster.”

Fu Chen’an agreed and handed Xiao Yingchun a sheepskin pouch.

When she opened it: twenty gold ingots, a full bag.

The final payment was complete.

“Alright. Go ahead and start hauling.”

Fu Chen’an pulled one cartload out the back door. The soldiers waiting outside quickly unloaded the goods onto horse-drawn wagons and had him return the empty cart.

Going back and forth, Fu Chen’an started to feel something was off.

Just as he returned after unloading one cart, the other cart was already reloaded inside.

Xiao Yingchun loaded the flatbed carts quickly and neatly—how come she wasn’t sweating?

But Fu Chen’an didn’t ask: this shop was strange to begin with, so it was normal for the person to be strange too.

Very soon, all the water and compressed biscuits in the warehouse had been delivered.

Xiao Yingchun explained, “My warehouse is only so big—I can only store this much at a time. Come back in another two hours, and the rest of the goods should be ready.”

“Alright.” Fu Chen’an didn’t hesitate and turned to leave.

These few thousand boxes of supplies were enough for them to start the battle.

If things went well, maybe they wouldn’t even need the next batch of supplies to take down Yongzhou City.

When he reached the door, Fu Chen’an seemed to remember something. “Boss Xiao, do you have any medicine for treating external injuries? And any strong liquor to clean wounds?”

As soon as Xiao Yingchun heard that, she understood, “You’re worried you’ll be wounded in battle and have no medicine, right? That’s easy… You give me the silver, and I’ll go get the supplies.”

Fu Chen’an understood. He left a “Wait here,” then turned and left.

Not long after, Fu Chen’an ran back in, dripping with sweat, and handed over a pouch containing twenty ten-tael silver ingots and ten ten-tael gold ingots.
