An Nuan was not pleased.
Fu Yunting looked at her with eyes that seemed to urge her to broaden her horizons, which only made An Nuan more annoyed.
She was small-minded, so what if she just wanted a peaceful life?
Fu Yunting gently put his arm around her shoulders, disarmed by her.
"How can you make decisions alone? I'm the boss!"
"Yes, you're the boss."
Fu Yunting grinned playfully, showing no signs of seriousness.
An Nuan didn't want to undermine him in front of others.
She glared at Brother Hu impatiently. "Give me the crystal, and I'll have someone bring you double the supplies."
"Double?"
"What, you don't like it?"
"I like it, I like it! Young Master Fu, your wife is amazing! She's got guts!"
He was more than willing to exchange the same crystal for double the supplies.
Brother Hu immediately handed over the crystal.
An Nuan had someone move several large blocks of ice into the truck and transferred the meat and vegetables into them.
Everyone was excited to see the ice.
After the power outage, ice had become a rare commodity.
They collected meltwater during the snow and froze it, so when it got hot, the melted ice would be their water source.
Now, with two large blocks of clean ice, this was also a source of water.
Brother Hu was overjoyed and patted his chest, assuring them.
"Don't worry, when we get back, I'll tell everyone that your crystal exchange rate is fair! We'll definitely send business your way."
"We..."
"We thank you in advance, but try to get pure ones. If they're too mixed, forget it."
Fu Yunting picked up An Nuan's words.
Brother Hu ate a little and drank some water, resting for about an hour before leading his team away.
As soon as the guests left, An Nuan immediately threw a fit.
"Fu Yunting, what do you mean by that?"
"Young Master Fu, while we need crystals, our supplies are limited. What if we exceed our capacity?"
"I also think you did the wrong thing, Young Master Fu. Who knows how many people will come to exchange for supplies? Our combat strength isn't enough. What if people exchange for goods and then try to rob us?"
Lan Mei's words were also An Nuan's concern.
Fu Yunting pointed at the gold. "Before, you asked me what I wanted with useless things like gold. Now I'll tell you, Er Gouzi."
[Host, please give me a new name. Er Gouzi will be ridiculed.]
"Stop the nonsense and eat it."
The small white ball appeared out of thin air, transforming into a giant white mass that enveloped the gold.
Everywhere it went, the gold was swept away, leaving no trace behind.
[Confirmed receipt of five tons of gold bars. Host, will this be used for item exchange or system upgrade? For system upgrades, an additional 300 million yuan is required.]
"I'll give you another chance. Think carefully before you speak."
The small white ball instantly floated behind An Nuan.
[System warning: Violence is prohibited!]
"In your world, precious metals and jade are valuable. Five tons of gold are at least 700 million. Last time I asked you, you said there was still 800 million to go for an upgrade. I'll give you one last chance to recalculate."
The small white ball felt danger.
It was too late when it tried to escape.
Fu Yunting had control over the flow of time, and it couldn't outrun him.
The moment it had the thought, he grabbed it, squeezing it like an angry rooster.
[Oh no, I miscalculated! We're still short by 100 million. With 100 million, I can upgrade!]
"Transfer 100 million from the account, and upgrade me immediately!"
The small white ball operated instantly. After a few lines of data flashed, the system squirmed out of his hand and spun around a few times.
"This... is it rounder now?"
An Nuan poked its little belly.
[Warning: Belly is very itchy. Do not poke!]
For some reason, An Nuan felt a tickle in her heart, a strong urge to rub it.
"Er Gouzi, what's the use after your upgrade? After eating so much of Fu Yunting's money, if I'm not satisfied with your skills, I'll pluck your feathers and make soup tonight."
[Ferocious! The female owner is even more ferocious!]
Er Gouzi spun twice and landed on Luo Luo's shoulder.
It felt the aura here was softer, and its chances of survival were higher.
[Plane system upgrade successful. Monthly exchange times have increased from three to five. The material exchange volume is twenty tons.]
"This is a plane system?"
An Nuan hugged Er Gouzi and squeezed it, its texture was so good!
But that wasn't important.
What was most important was that An Nuan's mood felt like being stuffed with feces and doused with urine.
It was disgusting, helpless, and she didn't know where to start.
His plane system could exchange for supplies.
This made An Nuan's previous hoarding actions seem incredibly foolish.
"Er Gouzi requires money for every exchange and upgrade. I sold all my assets that could be sold. Whenever I need something, I'll trade with it."
Fu Yunting organized his words, trying to make himself seem less capable.
An Nuan wasn't buying it.
"Your industries are worth over a hundred billion. Why pretend to be helpless?"
"It needs money for upgrades too. I don't know how many people I'll have to support in the future, and construction materials also need to be exchanged for money. It's fine for now. Besides, it used to be once a month, then three times. I needed warehouses for supplies and had to carry them around, which was too troublesome. How can it be as convenient as your warehouse space?"
An Nuan was slightly appeased.
Fu Yunting added, "Moreover, Er Gouzi is too stupid to even exchange for living things. It's far worse than your space."
Er Gouzi's eyes widened, expressing its displeasure!
An Nuan smiled. Although she knew he was flattering her, she felt better.
"Five exchanges a month is indeed a bit few. The twenty-ton weight limit includes meat, bones, and flour. The calculation method is also too simple and crude. Er Gouzi, first give me the prices!"
Er Gouzi was very panicked.
Next, An Nuan, with Luo Luo, a high-achieving finance graduate, and Er Gouzi, engaged in a three-hour pricing process.
Er Gouzi was in tears.
It leaped into Fu Yunting's arms to complain.
[Master is still the best. Master is truly a kind and great person. They are devils! Devils!]
Fu Yunting ignored it.
With a gentle flick, he sent Er Gouzi flying onto the sofa, its face sliding down a meter.
"Stop the nonsense. You charge me fifty-eight yuan for a pound of pork. You sell home-raised front leg meat as black pork belly. Where is your conscience!"
An Nuan handed the price list to Hai Changfeng, asking him to compile a copy, and to settle accounts with Er Gouzi according to the price list in the future.
She grabbed Er Gouzi.
"I can't be bothered to calculate how much money you've embezzled. Give me an extra five tons of pork later, and we'll call it even!"
[What? Baby can't hear, baby is suffering inside!]
An Nuan squeezed it hard. Since Fu Yunting hadn't crushed it to death, it was probably quite durable.
Er Gouzi couldn't stand being squeezed anymore.
Finally, its canine pride gave way to its survival instinct, and it obediently spat out the additional five tons of compensation.
Eight tons of rice, seven tons of mineral water, five tons of various vegetables, plus the five tons of compensatory pork.
An Nuan immediately stored the items in her space.
He paid the money, it provided the goods, and she reaped the rewards.
Quite good!
