Chapter 26

“He’s the battalion commander of the first battalion. My fiancé’s name is Jiang Che, do you know him?”

Jiang, the battalion commander!

Yu Jia recalled that in her previous life, after Shen, the elder brother, was injured and couldn’t return to active duty, Jiang, the battalion commander, had specially visited his hometown. He was a very handsome and tall soldier. The young girls and married women in the village surrounded Shen’s house, and they found out that Jiang, the battalion commander, was twenty-eight years old and unmarried.

Then… what about Ji Wanqing, his fiancée?

Had something happened?

“Comrade Yu? Yu Jia?” Ji Wanqing brought her back.

Yu Jia came to her senses and quickly shook her head, “No, I have a friend in the 113th Regiment, but he’s not Jiang, the battalion commander.”

After saying that, she couldn’t help but advise, “When are you going to the military region? Anhui Province is on the border, and it’s very chaotic with mixed people. You’re a beautiful girl, you have to be careful! If you can, call the military region. They have military supply trucks that come to the city to buy supplies every few days. You can take their truck, it’s safer and you don’t have to transfer.”

Ji Wanqing saw Yu Jia’s worried expression, constantly emphasizing safety issues.

She couldn’t help but guess that in her previous life, the heroine knew that Jiang Che was unmarried, and she was worried that her fiancée would die on the way to the military region before she got there.

“Thank you, I’ll be careful.” Ji Wanqing nodded, accepting Yu Jia’s kindness.

A scolding voice suddenly came from inside the room.

“If you want to talk, go outside! You’re blocking the door and your voice is so loud, don’t you let people rest?!”

Fang Qingqing couldn’t take it anymore and screamed.

The news of catching human traffickers before dinner spread through the guest house. Fang Qingqing secretly speculated with malice that Ji Wanqing was rich and beautiful, and she was alone, she would definitely be targeted by those traffickers! It would be great if they sold her to the wild mountains and forests, where she would never be able to escape.

But at night, not only did Ji Wanqing return safe and sound, she also said that she was going to follow the army, not to the countryside!

And her fiancé was a battalion commander?!

Thinking that she was going to the countryside to do farm work, while Ji Wanqing could enjoy herself following the army, her heart was filled with a thousand grievances!

Yu Jia frowned, walked out of the room and closed the door, whispering, “Are you staying at the guest house? Which room, I’ll bring you things later.”

Ji Wanqing, “506, just knock.”

The two of them parted ways.

Half an hour later, Yu Jia came to Ji Wanqing’s room.

“This is the package I sent to my cousin. Take whatever you want, and then we’ll calculate the total price at the end.”

Knowing that Ji Wanqing was Jiang, the battalion commander’s fiancée, Yu Jia didn’t intend to fleece her too hard. She just wanted to make a good impression and build a good relationship.

The package was about half a square meter in size, bulging with things.

It seemed that the heroine not only recognized her financial ability, but also trusted her identity.

Ji Wanqing excitedly opened the package.

Her heart, which had been aching from being exhausted all afternoon, was about to be healed by this moment!

Retro dresses, five, beautiful, all of them.

Retro shirts, three, beautiful, all of them.

Retro leather shoes, three pairs, beautiful, all of them.

Retro sneakers, two pairs, beautiful, all of them.

Retro handbags, two, beautiful, all of them.

Retro enamel mugs, actually bone china, a pair, all of them.

Retro enamel pot, beautiful, yes.

Retro bowls and chopsticks, beautiful, yes.

Retro wallet, beautiful, yes.

…

Ji Wanqing wanted everything in the big package except for the skincare products.

She even felt a little bit unsatisfied.

It must be said that the trading system’s aesthetic taste was really good!

These things looked retro, but they also had a modern aesthetic. They weren’t exactly like things from the seventies, with a strong sense of the times.

Instead, they combined retro elements with modern craftsmanship, making them both flawless and not out of place in this era, and very design-conscious, very beautiful.

Yu Jia blinked in a daze, “You… you want so many?”

“Hmm, but I also want a red shirt made of dacron, for my wedding.” If I miss this chance, I don’t know when I’ll be able to get another one. Ji Wanqing didn’t hesitate to make her request.

Yu Jia, “…You wait, my cousin’s gift has a red shirt, since you’re going to use it for your wedding, of course, you have to come first.”

Even a spendthrift wouldn’t be so extravagant! All these things cost over a thousand yuan!

“Thank you.” Ji Wanqing smiled, her fairy-like aura softened, her sweet dimples made people feel close to her.

Yu Jia sighed in her heart, Comrade Ji is so beautiful. Then she went out and found a secluded place to enter the trading system and chose a red shirt that suited her temperament for her.

As soon as Ji Wanqing touched it, she knew it was silk. Yu Jia explained, “The texture is different because I bought it at the Friendship Store, imported material from abroad.”

“It’s very comfortable, how much is it all together?”

Yu Jia, “One thousand two hundred and eighty-five, you give me one thousand two hundred and eight.”

Ji Wanqing scanned it and knew that Yu Jia definitely hadn’t overcharged her. She took out one thousand three, “You have to spend time buying these things, and you have to pay for the postage to send them. Don’t refuse the extra money, I’m getting a great deal.”

Where else could she buy things that she liked so much, except from the heroine’s trading system!

Yu Jia felt warm inside and couldn’t refuse. After all, the other party had already mentioned the postage, if she refused, wouldn’t she expose herself?

“Since that’s the case, I’ll give you something else.”

Yu Jia took a wooden comb out of her system backpack from her pants pocket, “This is sandalwood, it has a fragrance, it’s very comfortable to comb your hair with.”

The currency exchange rules in her trading system were: 1 yuan (current) = 500 yuan (modern) = two taels of silver (ancient) = 100 coins (Western).

And the money she got from selling things to the system could not be withdrawn, it could only be exchanged into the corresponding currency within the trading system and used to buy things from other dimensions.

And things bought from the trading system could not be sold in other dimensions, so Yu Jia could only accumulate her initial capital by reselling and reselling.

After finishing this deal with Ji Wanqing, her savings reached five thousand.

This sandalwood comb was from the ancient dimension, priced at five taels of silver, which was equivalent to two yuan and fifty cents in current currency. If she sold it to someone else, she would sell it for at least ten yuan. This was real sandalwood.

“Thank you, I like it very much.” Ji Wanqing didn’t hesitate and generously accepted it.

Master Ji, who had been busy all afternoon, not only spent the five hundred yuan she had just earned, but also spent an extra eight hundred yuan.

Her savings were now down to three thousand five hundred yuan.

But Ji Wanqing wasn’t in a hurry.

She had been in the apocalypse for a long time, and everyone followed the principle of living for the moment. Money is nothing, if it’s gone, we’ll make more.

Nothing is more important than her own happiness.

The next day, the Young Intellectuals who were going to the countryside in Huashi left early in the morning.

After a brief encounter with the plot in the book, their lives continued.

Ji Wanqing packed the new things she had bought yesterday into a box and didn’t intend to bother the military region to pick her up.

After all, it was still uncertain whether the marriage would be successful. She had come to Anhui Province out of necessity. If Comrade Jiang Che made her feel that working in the countryside wasn’t unbearable, it would be better to stay as far away from the military region as possible.
