The next day at noon, Fang Er rubbed his sleepy eyes and walked out of the house.
Upon opening the door, he saw Hua Niang helping Chai Yue stroll in the courtyard.
Tsk tsk tsk, this pillar is a bit too weak!
On the second day of their wedding, Hua Niang still had the energy to come out and work?
"Hua Niang, where's Zhu Zi?" Fang Er asked curiously.
Upon hearing him ask about Zhu Zi, Hua Niang suddenly became shy, blushing as she said, "Reporting to the Duke, he is still resting in the room."
Fang Er was taken aback. So weak?
This wouldn't do. Zhu Zi was a family retainer who had followed him from the old mansion. If he couldn't get out of bed on the second day of his wedding, Fang Er felt he had to go and show some care.
Besides, this guy was the head of a division. If this matter spread, wouldn't his subordinates laugh him to death?
Therefore, for both public and private reasons, he had to go and check.
With his hands behind his back, walking with a swagger, Fang Er entered Zhu Zi's small courtyard.
Since Zhu Zi was alone in the room, Fang Er didn't need to be discreet. He directly pushed open the door and went in.
Then, he saw Zhu Zi still sleeping on the bed. However, his brow seemed to indicate some pain?
"Stop sleeping, get up and have some fun!"
Fang Er slapped Zhu Zi's thigh.
"Ooooh~~~!"
Zhu Zi, who was fast asleep, suddenly opened his eyes and let out a cry of pain.
Fang Er: "......"
"What the hell, I didn't even use much force, why are you screaming so loudly?"
"What's wrong? Are you injured?" Fang Er asked, confused as he pressed on his thigh.
"Achoo~~ It hurts, it hurts! Duke, stop pressing~"
Zhu Zi quickly cried out.
Fang Er directly pulled down Zhu Zi's inner garment, and upon seeing it, he was stunned.
Zhu Zi's thighs were swollen, and the shape of the swelling was round and regular.
After pondering for a moment, Fang Er figured out why they were swollen like that, and then he said with a smile.
"Hahahaha, alright, you guys are really something!"
"Duke, please stop talking." Zhu Zi was so embarrassed that he didn't know where to look.
"Alright, rest well. This is considered your honeymoon leave for a few days.
I'll have someone inform your deputy and tell him to take charge of the First Division for a few days."
After saying that, Fang Er walked out of the room with a smile.
Zhu Zi's condition was definitely not due to weakness, but rather he had accidentally injured his thigh after playing too hard.
Returning to the study and sitting down, Fang Er had just arranged his paper and brush when he suddenly remembered that he hadn't redeemed anything for a while.
Opening the system store, he couldn't help but regret it.
Refreshable count: 9
Redeemable items: 20
Damn it, he had wasted two system auto-refresh opportunities.
He scanned the item list, which was filled with seeds.
Corn, peanuts, sweet potatoes, wheat, soybeans, and so on.
After redeeming them all, he clicked the refresh button.
Damn it, without that poop-yellow button, it felt awkward.
Even refreshing seemed to lack some of the thrill.
The first refresh brought out some items that hadn't been there before.
Various dried fruits and preserved fruits. Looking at the jackfruit and dried bananas, Fang Er was stunned for a moment, then quickly realized that this was because the Kingdom of Pyu had been conquered by the Great Tang, hence the appearance of specialties from that region.
After redeeming them, he took out a bag of dried bananas, opened it, and threw a piece into his mouth.
Hmm, sweet and crispy, with a good texture. He could give it to Chai Yue and Xiao Qing as snacks.
Second refresh.
A toy store appeared again, with toy cars, LEGO blocks, figurines, and pretend play toys.
Tsk tsk tsk, for the unborn child, it seemed there would be no shortage of things to play with in the future.
Third refresh, tobacco and alcohol.
Fourth refresh, toiletries.
Fifth refresh, cold drinks.
Fang Er was delighted. He hadn't eaten them for almost four years.
After redeeming them, he took out a tub of Häagen-Dazs, uncovered it, scooped a spoonful, and put it into his mouth.
Hiss~!
He hadn't eaten anything so cold for so long that he couldn't help but shiver.
Cold, smooth, melting in the mouth, with a rich, sweet milky flavor. It felt very comfortable!
While eating, he clicked on the sixth refresh.
FuCk!
It turned out to be adult toys, extraneous items.
However, thinking of Zhu Zi, he immediately became happy again. Well, he'd redeem them and give him some later.
Seventh refresh. Looking at the items that appeared before him, Fang Er was overjoyed!
He was so happy that he could barely contain his excitement, and he shouted in his heart: "Grandma, I love you to death!"
System: Get lost! You useless wretch!
Fang Er: "......"
Forget it, for the sake of these items, let it curse.
He happily redeemed everything and looked at the new items in his warehouse, his mouth almost splitting to his ears.
A whole set of items from World War II!
This must be the system raiding some antique shop.
Wireless radio, walkie-talkies, sidecar motorcycles, vintage cars, kerosene lighters, sunglasses, and so on.
He took out a radio and examined it carefully. He found the words "made in China" in a corner.
Alright, these items were likely replicas. He didn't know if they actually worked, so he'd have to test them later.
After putting the radio back into the system space, eighth refresh!
It was another maternity and infant store.
Milk powder, diapers, and other items. He redeemed them to store for the baby, which would be useful before long.
For Fang Er now, these were the best possible items.
The last refresh was entirely ceramic products.
Floor tiles, wall tiles, washbasins, toilets, ceramic bowls, ceramic knives, etc.
Among these, what interested Fang Er the most were the toilets and ceramic knives.
The mansion currently used wooden barrels. Fang Er had modified them, making them more comfortable to sit on than before.
It was just something for defecating, so Fang Er didn't bother to figure out how to fire pottery. The wooden barrels were good enough for now.
But since they were available now, he definitely had to get them.
Fang Er had also expected these items to be refreshable, sooner or later. Therefore, in the mansion and in the houses in the new district, he had arranged for sewage systems to be reserved, ready to be installed as soon as these items appeared.
