Chapter 55: The Corner of the Mouth is Harder to Suppress Than an AK

The mental map in Lu Jianan’s mind was: Jiang Qingqing = Bai Wan’s daughter = painter ≠ (Fu Zhengnan’s female protagonist in the game ≈ Fu Zhengnan’s girlfriend).

After folding it three times, it became: Jiang Qingqing is not Fu Zhengnan’s girlfriend.

Bai Wan’s already furrowed brows deepened further.

“Fu Zhengnan has a girlfriend?”

Her investigation hadn’t pointed to this.

Lu Jianan nodded and assured her, “Absolutely, he does. I don’t… you can consider me instead.”

Bai Wan gave a deep look at Fu Zhengnan’s back, collected her emotions, and stood up to leave.

“Hey! Aren’t you considering me?”

Lu Jianan called out behind her.

Zhang Yuan’s Prefecture

“Your Highness! There’s a secret passage here!”

The guards had searched all they could in the courtyard and finally discovered a secret passage in Zhang Yuan’s bedroom.

Jiang Qingqing’s eyes lit up.

A secret passage?

That means there’s treasure!

She hurriedly brought her people in. As soon as they entered, it was clear this was no ordinary place. The gold inside was so dazzling that she could barely open her eyes.

“My God, so much…”

The guards were stunned as well. How many people had Zhang Yuan exploited to amass so much gold in just half a month?

Jiang Qingqing picked up a piece and bit into it.

Personal inspection: Real gold!

With a wave of her hand, she dismissed the guards and summoned Fu Zhengnan.

Fu Zhengnan opened the game interface and saw Jiang Qingqing sitting atop a pile of gold. The gold light was reflecting off her, making her look like a statue of a golden warrior.

“……”

“Where did you find this?”

Fu Zhengnan said with a hint of helplessness. It was as though she was a gold detector. Wherever there was gold, she would go.

Jiang Qingqing jumped down from the chest, her face full of happiness: “I want to buy some things from you. How much can this gold buy?”

She held up the list of items her second uncle had given her, lifting it above her head for Fu Zhengnan to see.

Fu Zhengnan glanced at it, then said lightly, “Half a box of gold still remains.”

This large box of gold likely weighed around 300 kilograms. Based on the current gold recovery price, it could be worth around 150 million yuan.

The list Jiang Qingqing had given contained mostly cheap and common medicines.

Only the heart-protecting pills were a bit expensive.

Jiang Qingqing’s eyes lit up!

So cheap!

“Then I’ll take twice the amount on the list!”

Her second uncle had said that these were magical medicines. On the battlefield, they would have immediate effects.

At first, she was worried that the amount wouldn’t be enough, so she tried to reduce the quantity. She never expected the medicines to be so cheap!

Fu Zhengnan clicked “Pick Up.”

The store automatically added the items to the shopping cart according to the list. The total bill was over 60 million, and it was instantly paid.

The dozen boxes of gold were more than enough to cover these items.

[Scheduled Feeding Feature Unlocked]

Fu Zhengnan glanced at the new feature that popped up due to his recharge level increase and spoke slowly.

“I’ll arrange for scheduled feeding at the prefecture next time.”

Every day, a certain amount of supplies would be delivered to the citizens automatically, and the card would be charged without him having to purchase it daily.

NPCs and figurines were different.

At least that’s how Fu Zhengnan saw it.

Jiang Qingqing, who had been smiling, immediately deflated… Was he implying that she was too troublesome?

Her eyes lowered slightly, feeling a bit uncomfortable.

But she still weakly retorted, “I’m not a little dog.”

Fu Zhengnan’s fingers froze for a moment as he swiped the screen, understanding what Jiang Qingqing meant.

His indifferent tone carried a slight teasing edge. “When have I ever been so perfunctory with you?”

Wasn’t every meal he gave her personally chosen?

His voice was soft and low, gently falling on her ears in a way that almost made her feel like he was pampering her, as if it were a tender murmur to a lover.

Jiang Qingqing tightened her embrace around the doll in her arms.

Her mind briefly blanked.

What did that mean?

She didn’t dare to think too deeply. She kept reminding herself that it was just a god! Blasphemy against gods was a serious crime!

Besides, they were of different ages.

Her fingers turned white from clenching, and in the end, she couldn’t hold it in and stuttered, “Oh… then, what exactly do you mean?”

Fu Zhengnan’s eyes deepened, but he didn’t rush to answer.

It was only after Jiang Qingqing urged him that he slowly revealed the truth.

He also roughly calculated the exchange rate of gold to supplies.

Jiang Qingqing’s eyes widened. Was this gold really so valuable?

There were so many people, so it’s only right to regularly distribute grain.

She had wondered why the god seemed a bit strange today. It turned out that the gold she gave him was too valuable there. It could be exchanged for a lot of things.

A dozen boxes!

For some reason, she felt a sense of relief, and her mood lightened…

She said:

“Then can I exchange some meat? The soldiers haven’t had meat in a long time.”

Fu Zhengnan gave a light “Mm.”

“I also want noodles and vegetables!”

“Okay.”

“What about eggs? Eggs are nutritious, I want some too!”

Jiang Qingqing picked many items, and in the end, even chose a few gorgeous palace skirts and beautiful embroidered shoes for herself.

Fu Zhengnan then realized that the “figurine’s” wardrobe hadn’t been updated in a long time.

“I’ll pick them for you later.”

Jiang Qingqing nodded.

The corner of her mouth was harder to suppress than an AK; who would have thought that trading with a god could be so simple?

After placing the order, Jiang Qingqing immediately led her people to the military camp.

Jiang’s father and Jiang Yu’s older brothers were all there. When they saw Jiang Qingqing floating into the camp, they were curious about what good thing had happened to her.

Jiang Qingqing kept them in suspense and didn’t plan to tell them just yet.

She found an open grassy area and told Fu Zhengnan that they could place the goods there.

Fu Zhengnan softly said, “Be careful.”

But Jiang Qingqing, in an extremely carefree state, didn’t hear his words.

She was all excited thinking about how surprised everyone would be when the pork and eggs appeared on the ground!

These were all her achievements!

She crossed her arms, standing proudly in the front.

To her surprise, what appeared in the open field were thousands of pigs. With their large ears spread out, they kept grunting non-stop, and a strong stench of pig manure filled the air.

Jiang Qingqing, who had never seen a live pig in the palace, was so startled that she immediately performed a set of military-style punches on the spot.

She quickly ran away, shouting, “What is this! A man-eating beast!”

The Jiang family members, watching her actions, couldn’t help but laugh out loud.

When they saw the thousands of pigs suddenly appear, a sense of dark satisfaction swept over them. They had already tacitly accepted that there was divine help behind Jiang Qingqing.

The gods had sent them meat!

“Quick! Get more people and bring boards to turn this into a pigpen!”

“With so many pigs, keep half for eating and keep the other half for breeding. That’s a never-ending food source!”

Before Jiang’s elder brother could finish his sentence, tens of thousands of hens appeared in the field.

The Jiang family: !!!

What?

Good things come in pairs!

Tens of thousands of hens were running around the field, clucking. Jiang’s elder brother no longer cared about calling people; he grabbed a board and ran forward.

Let’s get as much fenced off as possible.

The others couldn’t afford to be surprised either, and hurriedly joined the action of catching pigs and hens.

Only Jiang Qingqing was still hiding in fear behind a haystack.

Her face was scrunched up like a bun, and she muttered a little complaint, “Why didn’t you tell me they were alive? I almost got bumped by that pig.”

And the hens too.

She had always been afraid of things with sharp beaks.

Fu Zhengnan’s cold, handsome face rarely showed a smile.

“It smelled really good when eating Dongpo pork.”

Jiang Qingqing: “……”

That was really quite presumptuous!

“I’ll give you the medicine later. I estimate they’ll be busy cleaning up these pigs and hens for the whole afternoon.”

Fu Zhengnan looked at the chaotic scene and spoke.

Jiang Qingqing had no objections.

Large sums of money were being transferred overseas, which prompted a phone call from the officer who had been monitoring Fu Zhengnan’s bank card activities.

“Mr. Fu, you can’t transfer any more funds abroad!”

“If you insist on doing so, we have the right to temporarily freeze your account until the situation is clarified.”

Fu Zhengnan didn’t react much.

His real private account wasn’t even in the country, and that was just a small amount.

It didn’t matter whether he used that card or not. “Go ahead and freeze it.”

He left those words and hung up the phone.

The two officers in the police station wiped the sweat off their brows as they put down the landline. Beside them was their boss, who anxiously looked at them, “What did he say?”

The officer blinked and truthfully replied, “Mr. Fu said… freeze it.”

The boss slapped his forehead!

It was really over!

This was a classic case of stubbornness.

We can’t let this go! We need to issue a public notice! Let the media put pressure on him, because the amount involved is no longer a simple fraud case!

They were likely trying to target China’s leading enterprises.

An hour later, Fu Zhengnan’s phone vibrated, and a text message popped up.

Fu Zhengnan squinted as he read the message from Old Master Fu.

【CEO of a certain group, caught in a pig-killing scam】

【The amount involved exceeds 100 million RMB】
