He said it was definitely not as good as seeing it in person.

Xiao Yingchun hesitated for a moment. “Will this hold up your business?”

“You’re my biggest client, the customer is always king. How could I be too busy to serve you?” Dai Hengxin chuckled on the other end of the line.

Hearing that, Xiao Yingchun also laughed. Wasn’t that the truth? She had sold several million worth of gold and silver ingots through him recently—of course she was a big client.

So she happily arranged to meet him later, set her things aside, and got ready to head downstairs.

When Dai Hengxin returned and parked his Mercedes at the entrance of Xiao Yingchun’s little shop, the neighbors all craned their necks to look.

“Isn’t that Old Zhao’s grandson?”

“Looks like it…”

“Is he and Little Yingchun seeing each other?”

“Maybe…”

“I heard Old Zhao’s grandson has quite a bit of money.”

“Come on, would he be driving a Mercedes if he didn’t?”

Xiao Yingchun had no idea that the neighbors had already spread rumors about her and Dai Hengxin, making it sound perfectly convincing.

Dai Hengxin said he had a middle school classmate who was in the logistics and warehousing business, and he was planning to take her to meet him directly.

Xiao Yingchun thanked him.

She had been startled earlier today by Dai Hengxin’s comments about the mother-of-pearl jewelry box, so she couldn’t help asking,
“Can you tell me what can be sold and what can’t? I don’t want to end up sending myself to jail one of these days.”

Hearing that, Dai Hengxin knew she had been spooked, and couldn’t help but laugh again.
“Don’t worry, I won’t set you up.”

“Even if something you bring can’t be sold, I’ll just act like I never saw it and let you take it straight back.”

Xiao Yingchun nodded uneasily. “I trust you. But at least explain it to me so I’ll have some idea of what’s what.”

So Dai Hengxin began to lay it out.

There were basically two categories of antiques that could be openly bought and sold on the market.

One was heirlooms that could be proven to have been passed down through the family.

The other was items bought at major auctions or brought back from overseas, with proper purchase certificates.

Of course, plenty of private deals ignored all that. As long as you didn’t get caught, there was no problem.

But if you were caught, well—that was another story, and one that usually ended behind iron bars.

While he explained, Dai Hengxin kept sneaking glances at Xiao Yingchun in the rearview mirror. Seeing how intently she listened, he realized she was frightened, so he quickly added some reassurance.

At first, Xiao Yingchun had been confused about the rules and felt lost. But once she fully understood, the fear drained away.

After all, her gold and silver treasures were safely stored inside her system’s space. Who could possibly find them?
And if nothing was found, as long as she didn’t admit to anything, who could point at her and claim those antiques came from someplace fishy?

Relieved, Xiao Yingchun settled back.

Before long, the Mercedes pulled into a large courtyard. Out came a short, chubby, tattooed man with a shaved head and no shirt.

“Well, well, Boss Dai! Please, come in!”

Dai Hengxin gave his greasy arm a slap. “Put a shirt on! Can’t you see there’s a lady here?”

“Oh, this must be sister-in-law? Hello, sister-in-law!” The tattooed man grinned broadly at Xiao Yingchun, his eyes roaming up and down.

Xiao Yingchun smiled politely back. “Hello. I’m a friend of Boss Dai’s.”

“You two sit for a moment, I’ll go put something on…”

As the man ducked inside to change, Dai Hengxin leaned over and explained in a low voice.

“His name’s Feng Xiangning. We went to middle school together. He’s a good guy, just a bit of a lecher. If he calls you my girlfriend, don’t deny it.”

Xiao Yingchun’s eyes widened. “Why not?”

“So he won’t harass you.”

“…Got it.”

Feng Xiangning soon returned, introduced himself to Xiao Yingchun, and after a few pleasantries, got straight to business.

Xiao Yingchun’s requirements were simple: the warehouse could be in a more remote spot, but not too far; it had to be standalone, not shared; size didn’t matter too much, as long as it could fit a car inside and hold two or three truckloads of goods.
