Compared to the well-known Pure Grade plants that can heal mental disorders, these items were vastly different, and no wonder so many people didn’t believe it, despite the certification from the Empire’s research institute.
Sanni didn’t care whether others believed it or not. As long as there was hope, she would give it a try.
Sanni’s family was well-off in the past. Her father had decent mental power and good physical health and was an officer in the Empire’s military. Her mother, although her mental power wasn’t high, was gentle and wise, managing their small home very well.
But as her father aged and sustained multiple injuries during missions, his mental power began to decline and occasionally caused violent outbursts, forcing him to retire.
Although her father’s rank wasn’t low, and he still received a decent monthly stipend, the illnesses he endured were permanent.
Sanni often saw her father suffering from the pain caused by his mental power outbursts. A man who used to be strong was now wasting away, mentally and physically.
Sanni was determined to ensure that her father could live a happy life in his later years.
Thus, she worked hard to earn money through writing. Fortunately, her talent combined with diligence allowed her to earn a decent income.
She had learned that low-pollution plants harvested from primitive planets could soothe mental power disturbances, and the lower the pollution, the better, especially Pure Grade plants, which were the most effective. So she had been searching everywhere for such plants.
However, the number of these plants was too small, and the information she received was often mixed, sometimes buying fake ones at great expense.
But she didn’t give up, as occasionally finding genuine products had stabilized her father’s condition somewhat. He was no longer so weak, and his mental power had also become more stable.
So, when the Lin Family Store opened, selling zero-pollution creatures, though they seemed strange and not like genuine products, she still decisively bought them. Now, she could only wait for the delivery to see the results.
Meanwhile, in a luxurious villa in the center of the most prestigious villa district on Riki Star, second only to the Imperial Capital Star, the young son of the wealthy tycoon Paka, Lucius, was hiding in his room, lying in the gaming pod, secretly playing games on the Star Network.
He had previously messed up a task his older brother gave him due to being overly immersed in a mecha game, which led to a severe scolding from his brother and the father being informed. As a result, he now had to play games in secret.
But today, something felt strange. The mecha game zone, which was usually bustling, was eerily quiet, and he had been struggling to match opponents for a long time.
After playing a few rounds, he grew increasingly bored. The teammates he had just matched with were all unskilled, except for the one teammate in this current round, whose skills were decent.
Lucius was puzzled, so after this round, he didn’t rush to quit.
“Bro, why are there so few people here today? I can’t even find an opponent.”
“You mean this? Didn’t you see the full-screen ad? The one for Lin Jia Shop.”
“Full-screen ad? I always block those.”
The big guy on the other side was stunned when he heard this, then glanced at his gear.
Sure enough, it was all ridiculously expensive, high-end stuff from head to toe.
The custom gloves with the mech, the small logo of flowing clouds on the forehead, the special protrusions on the tail wing…
Earlier, he had ignored this guy because his outfit was so understated in black and gray, but now that he looked again, it turned out to be a rich guy.
No wonder he could skip the ads; this must be a privilege for the wealthy.
“Since this morning, many websites on StarNet and street billboards on multiple first-line planets suddenly switched to ads for a shop called Lin Jia Shop.”
“Lin Jia Shop?”
“Yeah, Lin Jia Shop. The ad says they specialize in a kind of spiritual calming zero-pollution biological product that is even better than pure plants.”
“It wasn’t much at first, but somehow, two big shots from the neighboring district got into a fight over it during a battle. They’re both top-ranking celebrities, and once they started arguing, their supporters joined in, and it escalated into a full-on brawl. Now, no one’s PvPing anymore; everyone’s crowding to watch the drama, and that’s why there are so few people here.”
Lucius listened to the story and felt speechless.
However, he wasn’t interested in the fight, but the thing that caused it intrigued him.
Lin Jia Shop? Zero-pollution biology?
After thanking the guy on the other side, Lucius immediately left the game pod.
He opened up the Kakaw Network shopping platform, which he didn’t usually use.
Before entering, he even chose not to block the ads. Sure enough, the fresh green color appeared on the screen.
This is the ad? It looked pretty good, and Lucius stared at the sliced watermelon, thinking it looked delicious.
After the ad, he was taken to the Kakaw Network homepage, where a large banner appeared in the most prominent position. Lin Jia Shop had the best spot, with a soft glow effect that made the surrounding shops look dull in comparison.
Lucius nodded in satisfaction. This was the kind of shop he should be visiting; it screamed status.
He clicked in, and the store opened in holographic mode.
Hmm? Only three products?
He frowned, but then relaxed. Expensive things were usually fewer in number, so it was understandable.
Without even looking at the price, he waved his hand and decided to buy ten of each.
But then, a prompt popped up: “Each customer can only purchase one of each product.”
Lucius was a bit upset. He had never been treated like this in his life. What kind of thing could you not get if you wanted?
Still, his curiosity overcame his frustration, so he changed the quantity to one and made the purchase.
Afterward, he browsed forums and websites, where he saw everyone discussing this matter.
Many people had even posted pictures of their neighborhoods, and sure enough, everything was green.
Lucius racked his brain trying to remember the look of the neighborhood where he walked his dad’s dog this morning. There were no changes, everything was the same as usual.
But then again, they lived in a luxurious villa area, and there were no billboards or advertisements, so it made sense he hadn’t seen anything.
As he was thinking, he stood up and almost bumped into a stern face, causing him to stumble back onto the bed in shock.
“What are you doing?”
“Big brother, do you have to be so scary? You almost scared the life out of me.”
“You’re not playing games again, are you?” The person looked at him suspiciously.
“No, absolutely not! I wasn’t even in the game pod. I was shopping.”
Lucius then pulled up his shopping record and showed it to his older brother.
His older brother looked at him, took the smart brain from his hand.
It was indeed a record from Kakaw Network, but “zero-pollution biological products”? That sounded a bit familiar.
“What did you buy?”
Lucius, who was a bit afraid of his brother recently because he had messed up something for him, immediately started explaining everything he knew, but cleverly swapped the details from the game for information from the forums.
Lucius older brother, Kalins, listened thoughtfully, but he let his younger brother off this time.
Back in his own room, Kalins logged into Kakaw Network and ordered one of each product from Lin Jia Shop.
He wasn’t like his younger brother, who didn’t care about things. He knew very well that the full-screen ads, the banners, the prime spot on Kakaw Network, and all those street ads on first-line planets—these things could not be done with just normal resources. Lin Jia Shop’s backing must be enormous.
Plus, he had vaguely heard rumors from a friend about a capital star, which only confirmed his suspicions.
His friend was a second-generation rich person from the capital star’s inner circle, and they sometimes knew things that others didn’t.
This was something that even the wealthiest people from Riki Star, with all their money, couldn’t compare to.
Others represent power, while they are just wealthy.
