Chapter 21: Chapter 21 Make Big Money
Nian Shutong's focus immediately shifted to what was most important to her.
"Yes, Master. The heart of this planet can help us purify and absorb energy, and it also accelerates Cultivation."
"Hmm, anything else?" While it was already impressive, Nian Shutong felt that there must be more to make Daodao so excited.
"There is! Master, as long as we awaken the most prosperous era of this planet, the planet itself is a treasure."
The most prosperous?
"Shouldn't the most prosperous time be during our Cultivation?"
Nian Shutong really wondered if there could be anything more impressive than Cultivation.
"No, Master. The most prosperous era of this planet was known as Earth, with the largest population, a plethora of interesting inventions, and over five thousand years of cultural heritage and culinary delights."
Nian Shutong laughed, finding it rare to see Daodao so excited. Was it enticed?
"Do you like that era?"
"Master! You will like it too. It's very different from our cold, sparsely populated Cultivation World, especially interesting. I can send some clips to you, Master."
"Alright."
Nian Shutong slowly watched the scenes sent by Daodao, the bustling crowds, tables full of food, fiery red firecrackers, golden lion dances...
And those mountains and rivers, crisscrossing.
The changes of the eras, the meeting of beautiful views.
It had to be said, it truly was a world more interesting than Cultivation, the world that emerged after the Cultivation World had vanished.
"Not bad, not bad, very interesting." Besides Cultivation and fighting, there wasn't much else to do in their world of Cultivation.
"Master, there's one more most, most important thing."
"Hmm! What?" Nian Shutong too was curious. There's more?
Daodao spun around excitedly and said, "Master, I checked the Star Network on your Light Computer, and I found that there are many cultural aspects and foods that have been lost, like the salt you eat, Master."
"Because we've integrated with that heart, we now have a complete method of producing salt, and we can make better salt and earn money! Earn lots of money!"
Earn lots of money! She liked that.
Nian Shutong slapped the bed frame forcefully and shouted:
"Good!"
She and Daodao excitedly discussed it, but on the other side, Fu Yunhe was so scared that his spiritual power went haywire.
He nearly collapsed.
He opened his eyes and stared at his door for a long, long time, but in the end, didn't dare to go over.
He let out a sigh, "This miserable body, it'd be better to focus on making money."
With that thought, Fu Yunhe stopped regulating his energy, since his body couldn't hold it anyway. He logged onto the Star Network and found some small sites to earn money by answering questions.
In the small wooden house, one person was earnestly making money, while the other was even more diligently practicing Cultivation.
If they really wanted to break through the monopoly of the upper class, goods were one thing, but Nian Shutong would also need to have a strong force to support herself.
Since ancient times, a powerful military force has always been the greatest confidence of a country, even a planet.
Meanwhile, across several star systems, the senior bargain hunter Liu Cheng was wandering on the Star Network.
On the interstellar Star Network, people can be holoprojected to stroll through the net, and if they like something, they can pay a small amount of Star Coins or try it out for free – virtual tasting, trying on clothes, and other experiments.
If they liked it, they could pay to buy the actual item.
If not, they could just dust off their bottoms and leave.
Liu Cheng's favorite thing was to explore new shops. His holoprojected self was in a remote little shop on the Star Network, hopping from store to store.
"Pah! This must be pulled weeds! To think this is for sale! Negative review."
After leaving a negative review, Liu Cheng continued on his way.
"Ah? Disgusting."
"Pfft pfft pfft—what is all this stuff?"
After visiting several shops in succession and not finding anything of interest, Liu Cheng loved the thrill of discovering a unique shop with surprises, but it seemed there was no chance of that today.
He was about to log out of the Star Network, but just as his finger was about to press the exit button, a fragrance he'd never smelled before wafted over.
Liu Cheng of the Star Network sniffed hard and spun around on the spot to pinpoint the direction, then he headed toward the northwest corner.
