Fu Chen’an understood and agreed to come back at noon for news, then prepared to leave.

But when he saw the instant noodles on the shelf, he stopped in his tracks, “You gave me two boxes of this before. It tasted really good. How much is it?”

Xiao Yingchun looked over and smiled, the seasoning packets in instant noodles are full of “technology and ruthless skills”—how could ancient people resist the temptation?!

“If you like it, I’ll give you another two boxes.”

“If you want to buy it, it’s five taels of silver for ten boxes.”

These were large-sized packs of instant noodles, with twenty-four packs in each box. The wholesale price was nearly sixty yuan per box.

A silver ingot of five taels equals six thousand yuan—only a nine-fold profit margin. Quite fair.

Fu Chen’an handed over a ten-tael silver ingot.

Xiao Yingchun said, “…I don’t have twenty boxes in stock right now. I’ll get more later for you. Take two boxes now, consider them a gift.”

Ten taels of silver only sold for ten thousand yuan, with a profit margin of less than nine times—it was a loss.

Fu Chen’an didn’t refuse. He carried away two boxes of instant noodles, and Xiao Yingchun also gave him two large packs of starch sausages.

“These—tear open the outer packaging and put the sausages into the instant noodles while cooking. Tastes great. Try it.”

Fu Chen’an looked at the sausages and nodded. His eyes then fell on the Erguotou on the lower shelf.

“The strong liquor you gave last time—our soldiers said it tasted really good. But Doctor Niu insisted on saving it to disinfect wounds, not letting us drink it. The soldiers won a battle and wanted to celebrate with some wine. Could you sell me more?”

Xiao Yingchun agreed without hesitation, “Sure!”

Familiar now with doing business with him, she told him to come back at noon to collect the wine and noodles. Only then did Fu Chen’an reluctantly leave through the back door.

Back at the military camp, Doctor Niu was already waiting at the tent entrance. When he saw Fu Chen’an carrying the boxes, he rushed up excitedly, “More instant noodles? What’s this?”

Fu Chen’an replied, “Miss Xiao said these are starch sausages. Peel them and you can eat them directly.”

“Are they tasty? I mean… I’ll check if they’re poisonous first.” Doctor Niu said as he eagerly took the instant noodles and sausages, then grabbed a bowl and chopsticks to “test for poison.”

As the smell of instant noodles wafted through the air, countless eyes turned over, with tears involuntarily welling up at the corners of their mouths.

They were so jealous that Doctor Niu got to “test for poison.”

……

After watching Fu Chen’an leave, Xiao Yingchun stood in place dazed for a few seconds before suddenly reacting. She put all the jewelry back into the box, then locked it in the safe.

In over twenty years, this was the first time a man had given her gold and gemstone jewelry!

Just for that, she had to make sure this business deal was a perfect success!

Out the door! Time for breakfast!

Xiao Yingchun went to the rice noodle shop she often visited. There was a line at the entrance, and the inside was packed full of people.

Among the diners, she spotted the person she wanted to find: Ye Yubin, the owner of Chuntian Pharmacy.

Early in the morning, Ye Yubin had a bottle of cold beer next to his rice noodle bowl. He was slowly eating some noodles, then taking a sip of beer.

Confirming that there was still more than half a bottle of beer left, Xiao Yingchun calmed her anxious heart.

Not long after, Xiao Yingchun carried her bowl of rice noodles and sat across from Ye Yubin, “Uncle Ye, having breakfast?”

Ye Yubin glanced at Xiao Yingchun, “Little Xiao, I heard you just made a big deal?”

Xiao Yingchun grinned and didn’t deny it.

That’s how it was in the village—whatever happened yesterday, everyone knew by today.

Seeing that Ye Yubin had just finished his beer and almost finished his noodles too, Xiao Yingchun quickly gobbled up her rice noodles in a few bites and caught up with Ye Yubin as he was leaving.

“Uncle Ye, I’ve got something I want to ask you.”
