I Became a Sugar Mama to an Ancient General during a Famine! - Chapter 24 Part 1

Before her father passed away, Ye Mumu’s family had connections in various industries, including high-level executives at a demolition company.

She used her father’s old phone to contact one of these executives.

It was past 9 PM when she called, surprising the executive.

“Mumu… why are you calling uncle at this hour?”

“Uncle Xiao, I want to buy a large quantity of explosives. Do you sell them?”

Xiao Hua was intrigued by her request. “Are you planning to demolish a building?”

“We don’t just sell explosives. We need to survey and assess before customizing the explosives for demolition.”

“Explosives are dangerous goods. All sales must be recorded…”

Ye Mumu interrupted impatiently, “Uncle, I only need the explosives, in large quantities. The kind that can blow up a mountain.”

“No way! Are you trying to cause trouble?”

“Uncle, I’ll pay triple the market price!”

Xiao Hua still refused. “No, I can’t make an exception!”

“Five times the price!”

Xiao Hua’s resolve weakened. “Mumu, I can’t let you buy them to do something dangerous.”

Ye Mumu, growing anxious, said: “Uncle, this is to save lives, not harm anyone. Ten times the price – will you sell or not?”

“If you won’t sell, I’ll just buy fireworks and do it myself…”

After hesitating for a full half an hour, he finally agreed through gritted teeth: “Fine, I’ll sell to you. But you must promise me something.”

“Whatever you use them for, don’t use them domestically. Don’t risk anyone’s life. You bear all responsibility!”

“Agreed!”

On her way to meet Xiao Hua, Ye Mumu sent videos on explosives measurement, usage, and installation to Zhan Chengyin.

She warned him: 「I’m buying explosives, a large amount. It will definitely be enough to blow up the cave tunnel.」

「Remember, be extremely careful when installing and using them. This stuff could kill all of you!」

After meeting Xiao Hua, he took her to a remote warehouse in the suburbs that stored many explosives.

He explained: “The whole warehouse is full of defective products, returned goods, explosives that didn’t meet specifications, or leftovers from cancelled demolition jobs.”

He warned her again: “Once you’ve dealt with your business, remember I’m not involved.”

A whole warehouse!

Enough to blow up a mountain, surely!

Ye Mumu was delighted. She asked Xiao Hua, “Uncle, I’ll take it all. How much?”

Xiao Hua frowned deeply. He had thought Ye Mumu only wanted to buy a few kilograms at most.

But she wanted everything!

“Do you know how much is here? If it gets out…”

“Uncle, I’m still young. I just inherited billions. I’m not crazy enough to harm people with explosives! I really am using them to save lives!”

“Name your price. I’ll take it all tonight and won’t tell anyone.”

Xiao Hua held up two fingers.

Ye Mumu said: “20 million? Deal, I’ll take it all~”

Xiao Hua’s eyes widened. He had meant to say 2 million.

They were all defective products the company would have to pay to dispose of. They’d been storing them in this remote mountain warehouse to avoid populated areas.

Last time, a fireworks factory offered to buy the lot for 250,000 yuan.

Management had left him in charge while they were away on a big demolition project in another province.

Without the boss’s signature, the deal had been put on hold.

He never imagined Ye Mumu would offer 20 million for goods worth 250,000.

He struggled with temptation, but in the end succumbed to greed.

He gritted his teeth and said, “Fine. Pay me and take it all tonight. I’ll file a report saying we disposed of all the defective goods!”

Ye Mumu transferred 20 million on the spot.
