Chapter 2638

As for that huge sum of money… it is well known among the high-level lords of the White Tiger Group that Zhao Chi earned it by selling grain and experience fruits for the Emerald Jade Squadron.

So although these reasons also have loopholes, they basically form a complete logical chain.

Basically foolproof.

However, Zhao Chi was unsure about the details on the agreement, so he had to leave it to a professional like Shopkeeper Wanyan.

Shopkeeper Wanyan had been settled in a room outside the Phoenix Chant Tower.

There were no guest rooms in Taoyuan Town.

But the living conditions for ordinary female soldiers were already quite decent.

Although it wasn't a single room, it was still much better than the inns outside.

Yang Lu, who was in charge of reception, had originally wanted to arrange a room for each of them, but Wanyan's three female subordinates refused repeatedly, saying one room was enough for them.

So Shopkeeper Wanyan stayed alone, and her three female subordinates stayed in the room next door.

Zhao Chi brought Qi Yue to the door and knocked lightly.

"Come in."

Wanyan's voice was trembling slightly.

Was she still scared?

Zhao Chi pushed the door open and entered, puzzled.

He saw Wanyan hugging a blanket, curled up against the wall, staring at Zhao Chi nervously.

But when she saw Qi Yue following behind Zhao Chi, she visibly relaxed quite a bit.

Zhao Chi was stunned.

What did she think he was here to do?

Wanyan was indeed quite good-looking, with an obvious mature beauty.

But Zhao Chi had absolutely no such thoughts about her.

With this time, wouldn't it be better to spend more time with Tang Ruan and the others?

Zhao Chi got straight to the point and stated his request.

Wanyan nodded easily and said: "That's no problem, leave it to me. But I still have some details I need to confirm."

"Mm, feel free to ask."

Wanyan was indeed professional.

Her questions were very detailed, and her wording was truly impeccable.

Before long, an extremely rigorous electronic agreement was completed. Just looking at the clauses, Zhao Chi was truly the "pitiful" victim.

Zhao Chi was very satisfied.

"Alright, don't sleep yet. I'll come back in a bit to ask you about the order. You've worked hard today."

Wanyan nodded: "Of course, I'll wait for you to come over."

Zhao Chi closed the door and left.

He returned to the prison once more.

He had Qian Kuan and Yuan Ze sign and press their fingerprints.

They had no choice but to comply.

After the signing, Qian Kuan said impatiently: "Alright now, Zhao Chi? Can you let me go?"

"Let you go?" Zhao Chi laughed. "The matter isn't done yet, and you already want to leave?"

Qian Kuan explained: "Even for me, I have to wait until tomorrow daytime to handle it. Are you going to drag this out until tomorrow morning before letting us go?"

Zhao Chi smiled and said: "No, no, no. You can only be released after the matter is done."

Qian Kuan said in surprise: "Huh? If you don't let me go, how can I do things for you?"

Zhao Chi pointed at Yuan Ze and said: "I can release him. Give him the authority and let him run the errands. As for you… you'll just stay here with me. Otherwise, catching just one of you would be enough—why would I bother catching him?"

"You… fine, fine, fine, that works…"

Qian Kuan clearly wanted to say some profanity, but forcibly stopped himself.

Yuan Ze said: "Brother Qian, you have the inventory list on your end, right? Up to the end of today's shift. You can show it to him first and let him pick. Tomorrow I'll go handle it directly, so you can leave as soon as possible."

"Fine… but you have to unlock my system."

The rooms in the prison had a shielding function.

If one was in a detained state, the system couldn't be used.

Unless Zhao Chi authorized it.

"Alright, it's unlocked. Send it to me."

"…It's already done. Take a look."

Zhao Chi sat on the chair outside the cell and opened the list contentedly to check.

At one glance, Zhao Chi immediately couldn't suppress the corners of his mouth.

How could there be so many supplies in the list?

Was this the supplies of an entire brigade?

Almost equivalent to half a regiment!

But there were still no bloodlines; they should indeed have all been consumed.

There were also very few high-grade medicines and functional drugs, but there were an extremely large number of auxiliary props that Zhao Chi wanted.

Zhao Chi said somewhat suspiciously: "Qian Kuan, is this military supply inventory list real? How are there so many things?"

Qian Kuan hurriedly explained: "Of course it's real… Are there a lot of supplies? We've consumed quite a bit recently. Maybe it's because we're in the deep rear, so there are fewer battles?"

This reason was actually passable.

The north and west sides of Shuubei Town are both border walls.

A large stretch to the south is the territory of the Broken World Army.

The west is the territory of the Iron Blood Army, also friendly forces.

Shuubei Town really is very safe — perhaps war-type supplies aren't overflowing, but there are quite a few support-type items.

These are exactly what interests Zhao Chi.

Zhao Chi couldn't help feeling in a great mood.

Hurry and pick!

No bloodlines, forget it.

No matter, that was expected long ago.

Then I'll take something else.

But there are a few Divine Artifact Fragments — take them all!

There are quite a few of various experience notes.

There are also blacksmith and tailor experience notes — take them all!

There are also three kinds of guidebooks, not too many, but far beyond expectations. These items, the more the better — every book counts, never too few — take them all!

Buy all the refugees talismans!

There's also a Gene Expansion Stone?

Good stuff, take them all too!

Quick-Craft talismans, Quick-Growth talismans — take them all!

And there are even blueprints?

They're exactly the blueprints from Zhao Chi's bounty — didn't expect to see them here!

Take them too!

In the end, Zhao Chi selected a massive haul of supplies.

He nearly emptied the place of support-type items.

"Alright, I've sent the list of items I need to the two of you. Take a look — give me the unit price and total price, I need to check."

The two hurried to look it over.

But very quickly, Yuan Ze's brow furrowed again.

But he looked at Zhao Chi, then at Qian Kuan, and didn't say a word.

It was Qian Kuan who stammered: "Zhao Chi… this… how come you're buying up all the supplies from our military depot?"

Zhao Chi said, puzzled: "No, am I? I don't want materials or equipment or anything like that — I only want these items and experience notes."

Qian Kuan said helplessly: "I understand, that's exactly what I'm talking about. You've swept up all these experience notes, so… so our headquarters couldn't possibly agree to it either."
