#122 - Chapter 122: The Talkative Suo Assimilation

"Okay, let's do it that way. Then, what do you think...?" Zongzhen Yue asked.

"How about this? I'll round it up for you. 8,000 crystal cores for 50 sets of clothes, right? How about you take another 50 sets, then it will be exactly 150,000 crystal cores, making it easier to calculate. You can take the 50 sets of clothes back with you now, and after the transmitters arrive, I'll arrange for someone to deliver them to you. How does that sound?" Yan Fangfang suggested.

"Great! Then I must thank my dear niece!" Zongzhen Yue felt relieved of a burden and left happily.

Not long after, Suo Tonghua from the Northeast Military Region arrived.

"Dear niece, let uncle take a look, have you become more beautiful?" Before he even entered the room, his voice floated in.

Yan Fangfang held her forehead, speechless.

She felt so embarrassed, but didn't dare say anything.

"Commander Suo!" Yan Fangfang hurriedly went forward to greet him.

"Call me Uncle Suo, why Commander? Look at this girl, being so distant, aren't you?" Suo Tonghua said in a hearty voice.

"Commander Suo, it's working hours now." Yan Fangfang signaled him to restrain himself a little.

"What about working hours? Is anyone gossiping?" Suo Tonghua looked around.

Besides the two of them, there was no one else in the office.

"Uncle Suo, what brings you here today...?" Yan Fangfang quickly changed the subject.

"Dear niece, let me tell you, I'm here specifically to bring you good stuff!" Suo Tonghua said loudly:

"Bring it in!"

Immediately after, two soldiers entered from outside the door, wearing noticeably thick military uniforms.

The two soldiers put down two bags, gave a military salute, and turned to leave.

"Come, come, come, take a look, these are mink furs. Find a skilled craftsman later and make a mink coat. Let me tell you, this thing is super warm when you wear it."

"And this, a few old hens. Raised in the military camp, don't worry, absolutely no problems!"

"I originally wanted to bring you some old ginseng or something, but then I thought you're so young, you don't need that stuff, wouldn't it all just benefit old Yan? So I didn't bring it..."

Suo Tonghua rummaged through the bag, taking out one item after another, chattering non-stop.

"Uncle Suo, how many crystal cores do you want to borrow?" Yan Fangfang stood aside, speechless, and asked bluntly.

Anyway, the first batch of combat suits was on credit, which had already become an unwritten rule.

However, borrowing less was a favor, borrowing too much might lead to enmity. So Yan Fangfang was determined that no matter who came, combat suits could be borrowed, one or two hundred sets were no problem, but any more was out of the question.

"Ah, haha, my dear niece is still the smartest. Come, sit, sit, sit." Seeing that Yan Fangfang had already gotten straight to the point, Suo Tonghua could just go along with it.

Yan Fangfang was pulled down to sit again.

"Dear niece, do you still have those combat suits that your dad showed me? Let me tell you, that thing is simply designed specifically for our Northeast Military Region. You don't know, the Northeast is so cold. The soldiers are wrapped in layers and layers in the winter, greatly reducing their mobility! This kind of combat suit is thin but can keep warm, it's simply a blessing for the soldiers!" Suo Tonghua said ramblingly.

"200 sets, I'll give them to you on credit first!" Yan Fangfang didn't waste any words and went straight to the point.

"Haha, that's why I say my dear niece is more generous than that old Yan. How could old Yan, being so stingy, give birth to such a beautiful, smart, and considerate daughter?" Suo Tonghua said happily, chattering away.

"Uncle Suo, do you have anything else?" Yan Fangfang was preparing to issue an eviction order.

"Oh, right, I heard old Yan say that you've discovered zombie rats here?" Suo Tonghua quickly changed the topic and returned to the main business.

"Transmitters are not available on credit!" Before Suo Tonghua could even get into the topic, Yan Fangfang directly blocked him.

Yan Fangfang knew clearly that the Northeast Military Region probably couldn't even scrape together enough crystal cores for one transmitter at the moment. But even if they couldn't, she couldn't give them on credit for free. If she were to give them on credit, it would have to be like Zongzhen Yue's side, with collateral.

"Hey, Fangfang, look at you, I just praised you, and in the blink of an eye, your thinking has regressed." Suo Tonghua pretended to be stern and continued:

"Comrades should understand and help each other. Would Uncle Suo ever default on your debt?"

It had to be said that Suo Tonghua's face changed faster than flipping a book. If she really gave him the crystal cores on credit, she probably wouldn't see a single hair of them in the end.

However, she wasn't afraid of giving combat suits on credit. You'd still have to buy them later. If you didn't settle the account by then, she wouldn't give you the goods. Wouldn't you have to obediently pay up?

"Uncle Suo, how many units do you need over there?" Yan Fangfang didn't take his bait at all and continued to ask.

"12 units." Suo Tonghua quickly replied.

"How about this, I'll simply give you 500 sets of combat suits on credit. 12 transmitters are 120,000 crystal cores, and 500 sets of combat suits are 80,000 crystal cores, totaling 200,000 crystal cores. Uncle Suo, am I right?" Yan Fangfang said while calculating.

"That's right! I knew it, my dear niece is just generous!" Suo Tonghua was overjoyed to hear this.

Yan Fangfang quickly held out her hand to stop him and said:

"Uncle Suo, don't be impatient, I haven't finished speaking yet."

"Oh? Go on." Suo Tonghua sat back in his chair, looking at her.
