"Sure," "You can even buy more."
Wen Chuyan's eyes were filled with excitement at the sight of a big customer. As for the "equivalent exchange" mentioned by the system, she hadn't seen any violation prompts so far. Moreover, the system said that as long as both parties were satisfied, it would be fine.
Wen Chuyan looked at Xie An, and a faint sense of a cunning merchant welled up in her.
According to the ratio, the things Xie An gave were equivalent to 30 million yuan, and they were even hard to come by even with money. They were treasures that could be passed down through generations.
The total value of the things in her small store was only over 200,000 yuan, even after she had stocked a lot of expensive items. The gap was just too big.
Wen Chuyan looked at Xie An. At first, she thought that a young master from a noble family like Xie An would prefer interesting and novel items, but now it seemed not.
Xie An's voice was a bit urgent.
"Miss, could you sell me some more food?"
He looked at Wen Chuyan eagerly.
"Our dynasty is currently at war with foreign enemies. The soldiers are short of food and supplies, and this year's harvest is not good."
Xie An looked sincere as he bowed deeply.
"If you can supply the food, miss, I will definitely buy it at the right price. No matter what you want, I will try my best to collect it. How about that?"
Wen Chuyan stood there stunned.
She whispered to the system.
"System, how long is the test mode? Will I come back to this place the next time I travel through time?"
The small glowing dot floated up and down.
"The test mode lasts for a month. Besides today, the host has three more chances."
"In the test mode, the host can go to a maximum of three places. But if the host wants to come to this plane and time again next time, it's okay."
Hearing this, Wen Chuyan looked at Xie An who was staring intently at her.
"Sure. Next time, I can sell you more rice and flour. You just need to prepare more things like what you gave today."
Xie An nodded.
Wen Chuyan looked at Xie An, who was young but full of determination. The 300,000 system coins were dazzling to her eyes.
Moreover, people who fought for their country at any time were always worthy of admiration.
Wen Chuyan turned around and saw all kinds of snacks and instant food on the shelves.
Without hesitation, she stuffed a big box of instant noodles, all kinds of sweet drinks, ham, and bread into Xie An's arms.
"Mr. Xie, these are all edible foods."
"What you gave is already enough. These are just freebies."
Xie An stood there stunned.
The system reminded her that there were only two hours left until dawn.
Wen Chuyan hurriedly urged Xie An to take out the things he bought.
As for the time of the next deal, it would be on the night of the seventh day.
Xie An took out a jade pendant. It was a bi - shaped jade carving made of Hetian jade, but there were a few wisps of light golden patterns seeping through it, as if wandering in the clouds.
Xie An said calmly,
"If I can't come in person next time, this jade pendant will be the payment."
Xie Wan, who was already dozing off beside them, couldn't help but let out an exclamation when he saw his elder brother give away the jade pendant that represented his identity. But Xie An grabbed him and took him out.
The sky was gradually brightening.
Wen Chuyan could no longer see the two of them.
What she didn't know was that the moment the two stepped out of the small store, the plastic wrappers turned into oil - paper, and the glass bottles turned into bamboo tubes.
The soldiers outside, who were originally dissatisfied, burst into tears when they saw the white rice and flour in the woven bags.
The almost desolate path outside turned into a bustling street. The sounds of people greeting each other reached Wen Chuyan's ears.
The jade pendant tightly held in her hand and the mostly empty shelves.
Wen Chuyan took a deep breath.
It was time to sleep and then stock up.
Just then, the little glowing dot, which had always been just a decoration, suddenly started dancing in the air.
Wen Chuyan, whose eyes were already closed, had them pried open by it.
"Host, wake up! How can you sleep during the day?"
Wen Chuyan waved her hand as if shooing away a mosquito.
The system got even more anxious.
"Host, if you exchange the jade pendant for system coins, you'll exceed the requirements of the newbie test!"
"Do you know that?"
"Host, wake up quickly!"
Wen Chuyan was groggy, but she still held the jade pendant tightly.
Only when the system kept chattering did Wen Chuyan impatiently pat it aside.
"I've already made an agreement. How can I change it casually? I've already taken a big advantage."
Under the bright sun, Wen Chuyan gradually woke up.
The first thing she did was to contact her supplier.
"Uncle Chen, it's me."
"Yes, the business has been good recently."
"Rice and flour, the ordinary kind, 100 bags of each, 50 - jin ones."
"Oh, if I can't sell them all, I'll do some charity. I saw that some old people on the Internet need help."
"Okay. Also, bring dozens of boxes of those bread and snacks, Uncle. We'll settle the bill at the end of the month."
After hanging up the phone, Wen Chuyan decided to go out in search of delicious food.
The moment she opened the door, her cousin Wen Qi'an showed up with his big face.
"Yanyan!"
"It's almost dark! Why are you still sleeping!"
Wen Chuyan was utterly speechless. It was at least five or six hours before it got dark. Her cousin's words were getting more and more exaggerated.
But he was her cousin, so Wen Chuyan got up helplessly.
"Fifth brother, why are you here?"
Wen Qi'an looked at his cousin full of doubts.
"I'm on a business trip with my teacher. Is there a problem if I drop by to see my little sister on the way?"
Wen Qi'an directly took his cousin to a restaurant and then gave her a long - winded talk.
"Yanyan, even if you want to lie flat, you should keep a regular schedule."
"Eat and sleep on time, okay?"
"You're still young. You should know that when you reach my age, if you stay up late, your hair will really start to fall out."
Wen Chuyan looked at her cousin's slightly thinning hair and nodded heavily.
After Wen Qi'an sent Wen Chuyan back to the store, he was looking around in amazement.
"Not bad, Yanyan. You've really made this small store thrive."
"Are these things sold out or not stocked yet?"
Wen Chuyan watched as her cousin looked around, then took a rag and a mop to wipe every corner diligently. He even went outside to wash the glass door and the stairs clean.
She reached out her hand but stopped short of saying anything.
After all, no matter what, the store would be in a mess again after the stock - up tomorrow.
Wen Qi'an kept wandering around and asked curiously,
"Is the layout upstairs the same as downstairs?"
Hearing this, Wen Chuyan decided that she must let this elder brother, who had been a top student since childhood and was also good at housework, tidy up the second floor for her.
After all, her projector hadn't been installed yet.
The curtains she bought online were hanging crookedly.
And the simple cabinet installed a few days ago was a bit tilted, probably because too many things were put in it.
Wen Chuyan pulled her cousin upstairs.
Wen Qi'an started knocking and wiping reluctantly.
A very delicate box was placed in the interlayer of the cabinet.
Wen Qi'an was a bit curious.
After all, his cousin was just like a hamster.
When they were kids playing at their grandfather's house, this girl could hide chocolates until they melted and flowed. Their grandma almost thought someone had defecated in the cabinet.
Maybe it was because they weren't allowed to eat things like chocolates and candies that were easy to cause tooth decay at home, and as the family's beloved little sister, she could easily get them from the adults but then have them easily cheated away by her elder brothers who were a few years older.
Or maybe after sharing a pack of chocolates, the little sister could only eat one or two pieces and the rest would just disappear for no reason.
Anyway, the little sister had developed the habit of hiding snacks everywhere.
Wen Qi'an took out the box curiously. He wasn't worried about touching his cousin's precious items.
Who would hide things in the living room instead of the bedroom?
The box had delicate patterns on it, and it felt heavy in his hand.
He gently opened it and stood there stunned.
He didn't even notice that the rag he had casually put on the cabinet had fallen.
