Cotton-padded clothes and shoes were easy—on the e-commerce platform, there was a supplier from the province who provided military cotton uniforms: 90 yuan per set.

Ten thousand sets, direct order, delivered to the door.

Cotton shoes, 20 yuan a pair, ten thousand pairs, delivered to the door.

With clothes and shoes ready, better add hats too.

Cotton hats, 15 yuan each, ten thousand hats, delivered to the door.

As for cauldrons—no need for iron ones. Those stainless steel stockpots would do nicely: commercial-grade, large capacity, durable, lightweight, portable.

Buy 100 of the 80×80 size, stack them with stainless steel serving bowls inside, plus smaller bowls and iron spoons for the soldiers’ meals… convenient for transport too.

All told, at least two million yuan. Add compressed biscuits and medicine, and that’s another million.

Three million altogether…

Xiao Yingchun sighed and looked at Fu Chen’an.
“I don’t have enough money. I’ll need to exchange your gold ingots for cash first before I can buy more supplies. Time is tight—how about you head back first while I get to work?”

Fu Chen’an had just been watching her scribble calculations, muttering figures under her breath. She looked so capable that he couldn’t help staring.

Hearing her now, Fu Chen’an quickly stood. “Alright, I’ll go then.”

He took his things and was about to leave. At the door, he turned back and asked, “How much are these stockpots?”

Xiao Yingchun waved her hand. “No need, this gold is enough to cover your entire order. There will even be money left over.”

Fu Chen’an gave her a deep look, then turned and left.

This young lady dressed oddly, but her heart wasn’t bad.

She could have easily asked for more money, yet she voluntarily gave it up.

And yet, she clearly loved money.

But—a gentleman loves wealth, but acquires it the proper way*.

*君子爱财，取之有道” (jūn zǐ ài cái, qǔ zhī yǒu dào) is a famous Chinese saying means it’s fine to want money, but you must earn it honestly.

She was someone trustworthy.

Once Fu Chen’an left, Xiao Yingchun shut the back door and went upstairs, ready to put the extra gold ingots into her safe.

But once she got there, a ridiculous situation occurred: the safe couldn’t fit so many gold ingots.

Xiao Yingchun felt a headache coming on. Look at me now—so well-off I’ve got nowhere to stash all my money.

“Where can I put them and feel at ease?”

She looked around the room.

Just then, the Cross-Time Supermarket System gave her a timely reminder: ‘The system comes with its own storage function within the cash register. The host may deposit all valuables into the register.’

Xiao Yingchun’s eyes widened in surprise. “Store them! Put everything in!”

The gold ingots, silver ingots, broken silver, copper coins—all disappeared in a rush, neatly arranged inside some void-like cabinet.

Even the box of jewelry and ornaments was stored away.

“Take out four gold ingots,” she thought silently.

Four gold ingots appeared in her hand.

“Put them back.”

The ingots quietly returned to the void cabinet.

After trying this back and forth a few times, Xiao Yingchun finally let out a huge sigh of relief. “Alright, now I can go out.” She no longer had to worry about losing anything.

With a backpack slung over her shoulders, she headed out and hailed a Didi to go to Xinlong Pawnshop.
*Chinese ride-hailing app, basically China’s version of Uber or Grab.

At Xinlong Pawnshop, Dai Hengxin had arrived unusually early that day, surprising Xiao Mei. “Boss, why are you here so early today?”

Dai Hengxin glanced at her. “I have an important guest today. Xiao Mei, you don’t need to be here this morning. Head back first.”

Xiao Mei agreed and left with her bag.

It was the rule at Xinlong Pawnshop: whenever Boss Dai personally received a major client, no third person was allowed to be present—these were always big deals.

But not long after Xiao Mei left through the front door, she saw Xiao Yingchun just getting out of a car.

So today’s important guest was this young girl?

Xiao Mei recalled the two gold ingots Xiao Yingchun had sold before and suddenly understood: deals worth over a million yuan at a time—this really did qualify her as an important guest.

Still, dressed so simply, how could Miss Xiao possibly have gold ingots, such precious items?!

And if Boss Dai was personally receiving her today… could it be that she’d brought along something even more valuable this time?!
