Fu Chenan listened to the advice and tried everything, ordering everything except the shredded squid.
Seeing two more shelves empty, Fu Chenan still wasn't satisfied: "What else is there to eat?"
Xiao Yingchun thought for a moment: "I'll get you some more that you haven't tried. Then you choose the ones you like and tell me, and I'll go get more for you."
As the only top VIP customer of the Space-Time Supermarket, you deserve one-on-one customized service!
"Okay."
Fu Chenan was as obedient as a baby. Xiao Yingchun looked at his handsome face and gentle smile, and rarely felt guilty, so she took the initiative to change the subject.
"What are your plans next?"
Fu Chenan said to Xiao Yingchun without hiding anything: "I don't know yet. The court has sent people. We'll know when they arrive."
"If you leave Yongzhou City, where will you go?"
Fu Chenan: "Maybe... back to Beijing."
"Back to Beijing?"
Fu Chenan nodded: "My father and I both think that the court will probably let my father stay here to continue leading the troops and let me return to Beijing." As a hostage.
Only by leaving his son as a hostage in the capital would the emperor be confident in keeping Fu Zhonghai and the Fu Clan Army at the border.
Xiao Yingchun was momentarily disappointed: "Doesn't that mean you can no longer lead the army?" "
Can't I be the one to procure food, clothing, and other necessities
for this army of ten thousand?" Fu Chen'an's eyes were eager: "So my father told me to buy as much as I can from you while I'm here for the Fu Clan Army."
Xiao Yingchun immediately perked up: "What do you think the Fu Clan Army needs?"
Ten thousand men? Wouldn't buying anything cost tens of thousands?
Fu Chen'an said, "Wait a minute."
A moment later, he hauled in a box on a flatbed trailer.
The box opened, revealing a neatly arranged box
of gold ingots! Fu Chen'an pointed at the ingots and said, "Here are five thousand taels of gold. How much can you buy? Arrange it all for me within the next few days, the sooner the better."
By the time the imperial court arrived, the gold would have to be turned over to the court, leaving the Fu Clan Army with nothing. It
would be better to give it all to Xiao Yingchun and get something from her.
Xiao Yingchun: "..."
Ten taels of gold ingot weighs 362 grams.
One hundred taels of gold weighs 3,620 grams.
Five thousand taels of gold... 18,100 grams...
Even if it were melted down into a lump and sold by the gram, it would fetch 100 million!
What if one ingot fetched 800,000?
A sky-high order!
The energy of money stirred every cell in Xiao Yingchun's body. "Food, clothing, shelter, and transportation—what do your Fu Family Army need most?"
Fu Chenan thought for a moment. "Cotton-padded clothes and shoes."
Even though the weather is hot now, in a few days, it will be hot during the day and cold at night.
Soldiers are not afraid of the heat, but they are afraid of the cold.
That could literally freeze them to death.
He thought again: "Big pots for boiling water."
Xiao Yingchun was right about boiling water to prevent diarrhea and illness, and the Fu Family Army knew that.
But for an army of 10,000 men, how many big pots would they need to boil water?
Not enough.
Absolutely not enough.
Food was also in short supply, but as daily necessities, even if they stockpiled more, it wouldn't last long.
What's more, there is too much food stored. When the people from the imperial court come, they will have something to say.
However...
"If you can get those compressed biscuits, get some more."
This thing doesn't take up space and is not easy to spoil. If you stock up on some, it can save your life at a critical moment.
"And medicine. Your intestinal regulating pills and other medicines are very useful."
"If it is convenient, please prepare some more medicines for me. It is best if they can be kept for a long time without spoiling..."
Xiao Yingchun nodded, pulled out a piece of paper, searched the prices of online stores on her phone, and started to calculate with Fu Chenan.
Cotton-padded clothes and cotton shoes are easy to get. You can find a store in the same province that specializes in military cotton-padded clothes and cotton shoes on the online shopping platform. A set costs 90 yuan.
Just order 10,000 sets and have them delivered to your door.

Cotton shoes are 20 yuan a pair, 10,000 pairs, delivered to your door.
Now that I have clothes and shoes, I want a hat too.
Cotton hats are 15 yuan each, 10,000 pairs, delivered to your door.
Don't need a large iron pot; a stainless steel soup bucket is fine, the commercial type. It has a large capacity, doesn't break easily, and is lightweight to carry.
Buy 100 80x80 squares and put a stack of large stainless steel basins inside. Also buy some small stainless steel basins and iron spoons for the soldiers to eat with... They'll be easy to transport together.
All in all, it'll cost at least two million. If you add compressed biscuits and medicine, it'll cost another million.
Three million...
Xiao Yingchun sighed and looked at Fu Chenan. "I'm running out of money. I need to use the gold ingots you gave me to exchange for money before I can continue to buy more."
"Time is running out. Why don't you go first and I'll get busy?"
Fu Chenan had just seen her writing and drawing with a pen, mumbling to herself, and he thought she was very capable. He couldn't help but stare at her in amazement.
Hearing her say this, Fu Chenan hurriedly stood up: "Okay, then I'll go first."
Fu Chenan took the things and was about to leave. Before leaving, he asked: "How much are these buckets?"
Xiao Yingchun waved her hand: "No need, the gold you have is enough for all the orders you place this time, and there is still money to spare."
Fu Chenan looked at Xiao Yingchun deeply, turned and left.
This girl was dressed strangely, but
she was not a bad person. She could have asked for more money, but she gave it up on her own initiative.
But she obviously loves money too.
A gentleman loves money and gets it in a proper way. She
is a trustworthy person. As
soon as Fu Chenan left, Xiao Yingchun closed the back door and prepared to put the extra gold ingots into the safe upstairs.
But when she went upstairs, she saw a funny situation: the safe could not fit so many gold ingots.
Xiao Yingchun had a toothache: I am awesome now, and I am also a person with too much money to hide.
"Where can I put it with confidence?"
Xiao Yingchun looked around.
The Space-Time Supermarket System promptly prompted: "The Space-Time Supermarket System has its own cash register storage function. The host can deposit all his belongings into the cash register."
Xiao Yingchun widened his eyes in surprise: "Deposit! Deposit them all!"
Gold ingots, silver ingots, broken silver, and copper coins disappeared, all into an empty cabinet, neatly stacked.
Even the box containing jewelry was put away.
"Take out four gold ingots." Xiao Yingchun muttered in his heart.
Four gold ingots quietly appeared in Xiao Yingchun's hands.
"Put them in."
The gold ingots quietly returned to the empty cabinet.
After trying back and forth several times, Xiao Yingchun breathed a sigh of relief: "Okay, I can go out." No longer worried about losing things.
Xiao Yingchun went out with his backpack on his back and called a Didi to go to Xinlong Pawnshop.
In Xinlong Pawnshop, Dai Hengxin came very early today, which surprised Xiaomei: "Boss, why are you here so early today?"
Dai Hengxin glanced at Xiaomei: "I have a customer today. Xiaomei, you don't need to be here in the morning. Go back first." Xiaomei
agreed and left with her backpack.
The rule of Xinlong Pawnshop: important customers that Boss Dai receives alone are big business, and no third person is allowed to be present.
But not long after Xiaomei walked out of the door, she saw Xiao Yingchun who just got off the car.
Is this girl the important customer today?
Xiaomei remembered the two gold ingots that Xiao Yingchun had sold before, and suddenly realized: with a business of more than one million, this person is indeed an important customer.
But this Miss Xiao is dressed so simply, how could she have something as good as a gold ingot? ! She
can be received by Boss Dai alone, so did she bring something better today?
