This wasn't Yuanxi's first time logging into the Interstellar Shopping Network, but no matter how many times he had done it, it always felt great. After all, the future had reached incredible heights in terms of internet technology development. Even across star systems, it was incredibly convenient and there was hardly any issue of losing connection.
The internet had evolved beyond the era of computer keyboards and entered the era of virtual information. A helmet was all it took for young children or elderly people to easily go online without any barriers. As long as they could afford the helmet, everything was fine.
Yuanxi put on the helmet and connected to the internet, choosing to remain anonymous. As a result, all his information became anonymous, and he appeared as a black figure.
Since he was selling something, he didn't need to perform many operations. Yuanxi only had to transmit the image of the banknotes and wait for someone to contact him.
In this regard, Yuanxi was a bit cautious. He wasn't foolish enough to directly sell the ancient coins. He had previously researched all the information related to ancient coins on the shopping network and knew that they were extremely rare.
While there were many antiques on the interstellar web, there were very few paper-based antiques. The main reason was preservation. After so many years, items like jade, porcelain, plastic, and even metal products could potentially be preserved. However, paper-based items couldn't withstand the erosion of time. Those that managed to survive were often in a damaged and almost powdery state.
The intact ancient coins in Yuanxi's hands, preserved across time and space, were simply a miracle with immeasurable value.
However... a problem arose.
Although Yuanxi was absolutely certain that these hundred-yuan banknotes were genuine, there was a question of why they were in pristine condition without any signs of erosion. How could this be explained? Moreover, the main basis for appraising antiques was the traces of time. The passage of time couldn't be hidden on these items, especially with such advanced technology now.
Yuanxi was particularly concerned about this due to his identity as a person from ancient times. He didn't want to invite trouble, but he still needed the money. So, in the end, he chose another path, which might seem like a loss to others but was enough for him.
He took out three hundred-yuan banknotes and hung up high-quality imitations. Yes, they were forged, fake, one-to-one replicas of ancient coins!
This was Yuanxi's plan. This way, he could explain the lack of traces of time, and it would also minimize trouble. Although the price would be heavily discounted, the price of such finely crafted imitations would be enough for him to buy the farm.
For Yuanxi, 4 million credits was a substantial sum, but for the wealthy people in the Federation, it was nothing...
With these thoughts in mind, Yuanxi proceeded to fill in all the required information meticulously. He marked the price as 1.5 million credits for each banknote, totaling 4.5 million credits for the three of them. He also specified that the buyer would cover the shipping costs.
Once everything was in order, Yuanxi was ready to go offline. The communication technology was highly advanced, so when someone made a purchase, his communicator would alert him.
Just as Yuanxi was about to disconnect, he heard a notification sound in his ear: "The three high-quality imitation ancient coins you consigned have been purchased by buyer Xin Xiaoluo. Once the goods are confirmed upon delivery, the credits will be deposited into your personal account."
They actually sold! Yuanxi was surprised. He knew these ancient coins were rare, and he had priced them low, but he didn't expect them to sell so quickly.
Yuanxi felt like he might have sold them too cheaply, but he also understood that this was actually for the best. Selling them quickly without drawing attention reduced a lot of trouble, and he would receive the money sooner.
Looking at the buyer named Xin Xiaoluo, Yuanxi sighed, "This kid got a good deal."
New M-class terrestrial planet, Beijing, in the New Solar System.
Xin Xiaoluo held the newly delivered three pink ancient coins in his hands, his eyes sparkling. Damn, he had hit the jackpot! Four and a half million credits for such treasures. Although they were high-quality imitations, he had still scored big!
Hehehe, if he gave this to the boss, would he have a chance to command that magnificent and unparalleled new star-class destroyer? Damn, it felt like a stroke of luck had fallen right into his lap.
He checked the time. The boss should be free now, so he hurriedly got on his spacecraft and rushed over.
He could maintain composure in the central office building, but once he reached the top floor, his true self emerged. He had a mischievous smile on his face, his steps light, as if his dream was about to come true any moment.
Being complacent could lead to carelessness, and the next moment, he slipped and fell flat on his face.
Xin Xiaoluo jumped up with a yelp, ready to roar in anger. However, when he saw the person in front of him, his face instantly fell, and he pitifully said, "Big brother, you're picking on me again."
The man across from him was dressed in a neat Federation military uniform from head to toe, every detail in place. Even his white gloves were immaculate. He bore some resemblance to Xin Xiaoluo, but he didn't have the same carefree demeanor. He was serious and restrained, with a pair of gold-rimmed glasses on his nose that added a touch of sharpness to his appearance.
"How many times have I told you? This is the Federation Military Hall. Why are you jumping and running around like this?" Seeing Xin Xiaoluo about to get lectured, he quickly pleaded, "There's no one here..."
As soon as Xin Xiaoluo opened his mouth, Xin Yunze immediately raised an eyebrow. "No one? Am I not a person?"
Xin Xiaoluo was terrified of his older brother's wrath. When it came to being tough, he couldn't measure up, so he had to grovel and say, "Big brother... I was wrong. I'll definitely be more careful next time. I'm just upset because I've been incredibly lucky lately..."
While changing the subject, he could also defuse his brother's anger. This move always worked like a charm. Seeing Xin Yunze becoming interested, Xin Xiaoluo quickly recounted how he had acquired the three high-quality imitation ancient coins through various means.
Listening to his story, Xin Yunze's anger subsided.
Xin Xiaoluo continued, "Big brother, is the boss available? I'll go give it to him right away."
Xin Yunze thought for a moment and said, "Let's go together."
As the two brothers turned a corner, they coincidentally came face to face with a man.
Clad in a silver military uniform and tall leather boots, he had a slender and well-built figure, black hair, black eyes, and a delicate face that could make a large group of women scream.
Xin Xiaoluo had seen him countless times, but he couldn't help but exclaim at his handsome appearance. Damn, their boss was incredibly good-looking, and not a bit feminine. Xin Xiaoluo still remembered the diplomatic meeting with the Kenla people earlier in the year. On average, the Kenla people had appearances that were ten percentage points higher than humans, and the first prince of Kenla, in particular, was a wild and stunning beauty. His boss, with a height of 1.85 meters, walking beside the Kenla prince, had somehow turned the prince into a savage...
Xin Xiaoluo's mind wandered, genuinely feeling that the bloodline of the Ye family was too powerful. Each and every one of them was exceptionally good-looking, and on top of that, they were talented. Ah, comparison is the thief of joy. Xin Xiaoluo had always been someone who could let things go easily, and he wouldn't willingly invite trouble by comparing himself to these 'non-human' beings...
Snapping back to reality, Xin Xiaoluo quickly presented the items in his hands and grinned, "Boss, Uncle Ye's birthday is on the fifth of this month. I knew you were worried about preparing a gift, so guess what I got? This will definitely make Uncle Ye happy!"
Ye Heng glanced at the ancient coins in Xin Xiaoluo's hands, a hint of curiosity flashing in his eyes, then he asked, "Where did you get them?"
Seeing Ye Heng's interest, Xin Xiaoluo hurriedly repeated the entire process.
Ye Heng examined the banknotes in his hand and asked, "Do you have the seller's information?"
Xin Xiaoluo paused for a moment. He hadn't paid much attention, but since Ye Heng asked, he quickly checked and disappointingly said, "The seller's information is hidden, can't see it."
At this point, Xin Yunze interjected, "Do you need to check on the Interstellar Network?"
Ye Heng shook his head. "No need." Then he asked Xin Xiaoluo, "Is there any shipping information?"
"Oh? There is. I paid for the shipping, so I can definitely see it!" After a while, Xin Xiaoluo said, "The delivery came from a Class O ocean planet named Blue Star, with the code O8971."
"Blue Star?" Ye Heng furrowed his brow, then smiled and said to Xin Xiaoluo, "Very well, Xiaoluo, you've done well. I'll accept this as a gift for Uncle Ye."
Hearing Ye Heng's words, Xin Xiaoluo became ecstatic. Xin Yunze glanced at him, and Xin Xiaoluo quieted down. He stuck out his tongue and saluted in a serious manner before sneakily leaving.
Ye Heng played with the ancient coins in his hand, a mysterious smile playing at the corners of his mouth. "Yunze, after the election, prepare for me. I'm going out for a walk."
Blue Star.
Yuanxi, caught up in his calculations, never expected that in order to save on shipping costs, he would end up selling himself. It just goes to show that you can't take advantage of every opportunity...
But at this moment, Yuanxi was still unaware, happily looking at the long string of zeros in his account. Damn, 4.5 million credits! He had never been this rich!
With the money settled, Yuanxi and Yuan Yucheng went to Wang Qingnian's farm. They were extremely satisfied when they saw it. The 300 mu of land was real, with 200 mu of dry land and 100 mu of paddy fields suitable for growing two crops. Due to the presence of the paddy fields, the underground water supply in this area was abundant, and Wang Qingnian had even dug deep wells, ensuring an abundant freshwater resource.
Wang Qingnian was experienced and had taken great care of his farm, even constructing a small three-story Western-style building. It had a bright red exterior with white fences, making it pleasant to the eye.
Wang Qingnian said to them, "Brother, eldest nephew, you can take the orchard, vegetable garden, and this house. Living here will be convenient and comfortable. Oh, and there's also the breeding area. Come, let me show you."
Yuanxi was already extremely satisfied, and Yuan Yucheng nodded in agreement. They got in the car and headed towards the breeding area at the back of the plantation.
The breeding area was a separate section, located behind the cultivation area. It was organized horizontally, with clear divisions and everything in order.
But unexpectedly, as soon as Yuanxi got out of the car, he was startled...
Gong Jun had finally been taken out for a walk...
