Today was the official opening day of the shop, so Lin Huanyan got up early.
She first logged into the StarNet shop backend to check all the settings, then set the opening time to 8:00 AM.
After that, it was just a matter of waiting. Lin Huanyan sat on the soft sofa, tightly hugging one of the two small pets, not even sure which one, as she was too nervous to tell.
It seemed she was holding a bit too tightly, as the small fluffy ball in her arms started squirming and scratching with its little paws, but the nervous Lin Huanyan firmly held it down.
Meanwhile, the one who had previously claimed to be the “father,” Gu Yinchen, was too focused on comforting his girlfriend to notice the situation.
In the end, poor Da Bao had to resign himself, but at least the owner’s arms were soft and sweet-smelling, and despite being held too tightly, there were no other complaints.
Time passed slowly but steadily, moving at its own pace.
Finally, at 8:00 AM, the shop officially opened. Lin Huanyan had named her shop “Lin Family Shop,” the only zero-pollution biological specialty store in the galaxy.
Because she had prepared everything in advance, advertisements for the shop went live across the entire network as soon as the clock hit 8:00.
Lin Huanyan casually picked a few well-known websites, such as the largest intergalactic communication site, the largest video site, the largest gaming site…
The opening ads were beautifully crafted Lin Family Shop posters, and on the homepage, a large banner greeted visitors.
The poster she chose featured a watermelon cut in half, with vibrant green skin and bright red flesh, looking incredibly appetizing.
Most importantly, the certification from the Imperial Research Institute was displayed prominently, giving it an authoritative touch.
She also randomly selected a few smaller sites and some niche sites to display the shop’s ads.
This widespread promotion was definitely the work of the Carla family, as it was one of the conditions for their involvement in the shop.
Lin Huanyan believed that, with this level of advertising, the Lin Family Shop’s popularity would soon spread. And with zero-pollution biological products that were highly effective for mental health disorders, this natural topic would definitely spark even more heated discussions.
Satisfied, Lin Huanyan closed the website and headed back to the StarNet shopping platform to check things out.
StarNet’s largest online shopping platform, KakaNet, was famous for selling anything you could imagine—clothing, technology, minerals, plants, medicine, fruits…
In various categories, there’s basically everything.
According to data, at least 90% of online shoppers in the entire galaxy use Kaka Network for online shopping.
Such a giant, its opening ads are naturally very expensive, with costs calculated in the billions.
In the past, only top-tier brands and companies in the galaxy could afford ads here, and smaller ones didn’t even dare to think about it.
But now, with Lin Huanyan’s click, after a flash of black, the advertisement for Lin Jia Shop appeared, staying on the screen for a full five seconds before the website loaded.
On the homepage, there was also a huge banner for Lin Jia Shop right in the middle, making it hard not to notice.
Of course, in addition to the large-scale online ads on the Galactic Network, Wanwu Sheng Company did not neglect offline advertising either.
The offline ads, like the online ones, were all in refreshing green.
So, in many developed planets, people suddenly noticed that after just a nap, the entire world had changed.
On the streets, beside tall buildings, on starships, and on maglev trains…
Originally, the various colorful, mismatched advertisements were all replaced with green poster ads, making the world seem entirely green.
Sanni, who lived on the Empire’s capital planet, felt this most clearly.
She was a typical homebody. After graduating from university, she chose an even more reclusive career as an online novelist.
Because of this, she often stayed indoors for ten or more days, relying entirely on delivery and takeout.
But today, she had to go out because her smart brain was broken and unusable. As someone who was entirely dependent on her smart brain, Sanni had no choice but to go to the repair shop in her community.
Going out was different from staying home. After much effort, Sanni managed to get herself ready and walked out the door.
As soon as she stepped out of her building, she was immediately surrounded by green advertisements. The imaginative novelist Sanni even thought that the world had mutated since she hadn’t been out for so long.
When she glanced to the side, others were also surprised.
“Hey, what’s going on? Why has everything suddenly turned green?”
“How should I know? I just came out too.”
“Aren’t you the all-knowing one? You always know everything that happens in the community. What, this time you don’t know?”
“Everyone, stop shouting. Let’s go and see, then we’ll know.”
A few people nearby seemed to know each other and huddled together to discuss.
Sanni overheard and realized they didn’t know either, guessing that it must have happened today.
She also noticed the nearest poster.
Lin Jia Shop? Zero-pollution biological products? Mental illness? Imperial Research Institute? Wanwu Sheng Company?
Sanni paused to take a closer look.
“It’s just a shop, yet they’re spending so much money on ads. They must be really rich.”
“They say their products are better than pure-grade plants and have a remarkable effect on mental abilities. Could this be a scam?”
“It shouldn’t be. They spent so much on advertising, and there’s a certification from the Imperial Research Institute.”
The youngest person in the group pointed to the poster to show the others.
“The price must be high. Pure-grade plants are already expensive, and this zero-pollution biological product must be even more so.”
…
The group debated heatedly.
Sanni looked at them opening their smart brains, and she vaguely heard terms like “Star Network,” “opening ads,” and “big money.”
She was curious, but with her smart brain broken, she had to let it go for now.
Still thinking about it, she hurried to the repair shop.
The technician checked, and fortunately, it was just a minor issue—a broken part that was easily replaced.
Once it was fixed, Sanni quickly paid the bill and eagerly opened the Star Network.
As a girl addicted to the internet, this was her main territory.
Sure enough, when Sanni logged into the forum, the discussion was already in full swing.
She skimmed through the messages and summarized the situation.
In short, a new online store called Lin Jia Shop suddenly appeared on the Star Network. Not only did they spend a fortune buying ads on almost all websites, but their advertisements were also plastered on developed planets offline.
The products they sold were said to be rare zero-pollution biological items, with certification from the Imperial Research Institute.
Despite this, the netizens were divided into two camps. One believed it was real, as it had the certification. The other camp was skeptical, arguing that many famous research institutes across the galaxy had not managed to develop such a thing, and that a previously unheard-of Black Hole Research Institute had claimed to have made such a breakthrough. It was highly untrustworthy. They thought that the massive ad spend might have been used to buy the certificate, and the product might only be slightly better than pure-grade plants.
Such things were not unheard of.
The netizens debated quickly, with messages flooding in.
Sanni briefly looked over before logging out. Even if it was fake, pure-grade plants were already great, and they were rarely available. When they did appear, the big players snapped them all up, leaving behind only items with higher levels of pollution.
Although these still had some effect, it was much weaker.
Since the store dared to advertise that its products were at least as good as pure-grade plants, it seemed likely that their goods were decent. After all, the Star Network Regulatory Bureau wasn’t a bystander and wouldn’t allow such false advertising to go unchecked.
Sanni decisively opened the first interstellar shopping website, KakaNet.
As mentioned by other netizens, the huge splash screen ad filled the entire page, and the prominent store that appeared immediately was decorated in a refreshing green, just like the ad.
By this time, Sanni had already arrived home, so she decisively clicked to enter, defaulting to the holographic mode.
Upon entering, a massive burst of colorful fireworks exploded in the air, and several large characters appeared — “Welcome customers to the Lin Family Store.”
She immediately ran into the store, which was vast yet only had three lonely exhibition tables. The arrangement was clever, though, making it not feel too empty.
The first display she saw was a watermelon stand, where a giant dark green oval-shaped fruit was placed. Next to it was a simple introduction that could be clicked on for more details.
But Sanni didn’t have time to check it out; her gaze quickly shifted to the price tags: 1 million for large, 950,000 for medium, and 900,000 for small. It was surprisingly cheap.
Sanni hesitated a bit. She was going to think it over, but every time the stock quantity refreshed, a large portion of it disappeared.
She calculated her savings and quickly selected three, ready to purchase.
However, a prompt suddenly popped up: “This item is limited to one purchase.”
Reluctantly, she went back, adjusted the quantity to one, and successfully completed the purchase.
Seeing the confirmation message pop up, Sanni finally let out a sigh of relief.
She hurried over to the other two counters to check them out.
The first one had a price of 100,000 star coins, the second 200,000 star coins — even cheaper than the watermelon.
This time, she learned her lesson and checked the notes. Sure enough, it was also limited to one.
So she set the quantity to one and quickly completed the purchase.
After seeing that the quantity of items to be received was now three, Sanni relaxed completely.
She then took the time to read the product descriptions.
The 200,000 star coin purchase was for a type of aquatic plant seed, which supposedly grows into a zero-pollution plant when planted in water.
The 100,000 star coin purchase was for the eggs of a water creature called “Fengnian Shrimp,” which was claimed to hatch into animals that are effective in treating mental power disorders.
At first glance, it seemed that, apart from the watermelon, the other two items were quite untrustworthy, requiring her to plant and hatch them herself.
And all these products had unfamiliar names and appearances — things they had never seen or heard of.
