Fu Chen’an glanced up at the sky—it was already past midnight. The shop wouldn’t be open now, so he figured he might as well write up a supply list…

After finishing the list, Fu Chen’an suddenly remembered something, “Someone come! Have all the gold and silver ingots seized from the wealthy households delivered here. Collect the hairpins, accessories, and fine fabrics—prepare a set and deliver it over.”

“Yes, sir!”

The shop owner didn’t accept banknotes or small pieces of silver—the owner only took gold and silver ingots and copper coins.

As for the hairpins, jewelry, and fabrics… maybe that young lady shopkeeper would like them?

If he wanted to buy the best medicine from her, he should at least show some sincerity.

Holding the supply list, Fu Chen’an went to find Doctor Niu.

Doctor Niu glanced at the list and muttered, “Can we try to buy more?”

Fu Chen’an didn’t understand. “Isn’t this enough?”

Doctor Niu glared. “It’s enough for today, but what about next time? Do you expect us to travel all the way to Xima Town again just to buy it? We should stock up while we still can. Understand?”

Fu Chen’an suddenly understood. “Got it. I’ll arrange it right away.”

……

Xiao Yingchun got up early, washed up, and had just opened the back door of the supermarket when Fu Chen’an pushed the door open and walked in.

As soon as they saw each other, both were momentarily stunned.

The man had clearly cleaned up, dressed in a light silvery-white robe, with a white jade crown in his hair. He looked radiant and refreshed.

A man whose beauty was hard to ignore.

Three words floated across Xiao Yingchun’s mind: seductive male beauty.
But her face remained serious as she pointed at Fu Chen’an, “You won the battle? No need for armor anymore?”

Fu Chen’an’s face flushed slightly—he realized this woman might see him differently, so today, to get what he wanted, he had deliberately cleaned up and dressed nicely.

In the past, he would’ve scoffed at doing such a thing.

But thinking of the ten thousand soldiers needing medicine… sacrificing his looks a little—so what?

He convinced himself, then pushed a box in front of her with determination. “This is for you.”

Xiao Yingchun looked at the exquisitely crafted box, decorated with shells and gold and silver threads. “For me?”

Fu Chen’an opened the box on the counter. Inside was a full case of dazzling jewelry.

Xiao Yingchun carefully picked up each item: hairpins decorated with gemstones, earrings, chokers, rings, bracelets…

All exquisitely made—fine enamel decoration, some set with gems…

Even baroque pearls were embedded on them.

Upon close inspection, she could tell they were all painstakingly handcrafted by ancient artisans.

Xiao Yingchun felt a heavy weight in her heart: a box of jewels like this must have been worth a fortune in ancient times.

“Where did this come from?”

“Last night, after taking the city, we looted the homes of wealthy families. I picked out the prettiest ones and put them together for you.”

After Fu Chen’an finished speaking, he saw Xiao Yingchun frown, “Looted?”

Could it be from the dead?

That would be too unlucky!

Fu Chen’an understood the look on her face and immediately explained, “We only took the items, no one was killed.”

Xiao Yingchun felt half relieved, at least it wasn’t stained with blood.

She thought for a moment and asked Fu Chen’an, “What do you want in return?”

But Fu Chen’an waved his hand, “These are gifts for you.”

“I’ve also prepared silver and gold ingots. I want to buy more medicine from you, if that’s possible?”

Xiao Yingchun nodded, “No problem.”

Fu Chen’an took out a stack of notes from his sleeve and read them aloud to Xiao Yingchun.

Xiao Yingchun thought, this amount—you couldn’t even get this much if you cleared out a pharmacy.

“…This is way too much! I’m not sure I can buy this much for you. Some medicines here, if bought in large quantities… might attract government attention. If I’m not careful, I might get arrested.
How about this—you wait a bit, I’ll first calculate the quantities, then go check the situation, and give you a reply?”
