If it were exchanged, it would be 4.1 trillion federal dollars!
This was already more than one-tenth of the federal government’s annual revenue!
Since ancient times, no one had been able to earn money as fast as Xia Fei.
In just four short months, Xia Fei had risen from a nobody bicycle courier to one of the wealthiest people in the federation. It couldn’t be described without shocking the listener.
This wasn’t earning money; this was money heist!

Phantom nodded. “Mm, not bad. We can go to the medicinal ingredients market to purchase some mid-grade medicinal ingredients.”
“Keke, when you visited the shop last time, I just happened to be out. Therefore, I’m here to apologize for my negligence.” Xu Maorong greeted Xia Fei respectfully.
“Oh.” Xia Fei nodded. “Then you should hire a few virtual attendants as it is very convenient to serve customers using computer-generated virtual characters.”
“You might not know, but none of our Masterpiece Line’s shops uses computer generator attendants. No matter how capable the virtual attendants are, it is still a machine, and using a machine to serve a customer is disrespectful. Our Masterpiece Line has no intention to employ such things.”
“This is the Masterpiece Line’s 1-star member card, please accept it. According to our rules, you will only be promoted to 1-star member when you reach a total purchase of 100 million star coins. However, we are giving it to you now as compensation for our negligence in manner.”
“From now on, you will receive a 2% discount in all of the shops associated with Masterpiece Group. Furthermore, all transportation fees will be handled by our group. You can even present this card to participate in our Masterpiece Line’s auction.”

Xia Fei took a tour around the shop and realized that the products were still the same as before and the new products were things that Phantom didn’t fancy.
“It seems like there aren’t any new products in the shop.” Xia Fei asked.
“This shop only sells the highest grade of medicinal ingredients, and each product has an extremely limited quantity. As such, be it the sale or import of products, it takes a long time to restock. Soon there will be an auction at the Masterpiece Auction House, and there will be some top-grade medicinal ingredients on sale. You can take a look there when it happens.”
After conversing with Xu Maorong, Xia Fei found out that the Masterpiece Line was a very unconventional company in the Endaro Star Region. They only sold the best grade of products; they didn’t seek sales and only sought the best.
Their auctions were very famous throughout the entire Endaro Star Region, and rare items could frequently be seen in the auctions.
After returning from the interplanetary internet, Xia Fei stretched his body before immersing in harsh cultivation again.
All of a sudden, a Bell Textron helicopter appeared in the sky. As the propellers were rapidly rotating, the entire valley was echoing with rumbling sounds.
The helicopter parked a few hundred meters from the tent, and the large winds nearly turned over Xia Fei’s tent.
“Who is it?” Xia Fei frowned and looked over, only to see the bald Wu Long leaping off the helicopter and running over with large strides.
Xia Fei smiled. “Brother Wu, why are you here? Could it be that you missed me?”
Wu Long laughed heartily. “Why would I miss you? You aren’t a woman.”
The duo sat down on a large piece of rock by the side of the river. Xia Fei took out a box of Hongtashan and handed one stick to Wu Long.
Wu Long shook his hand. “You better smoke this thing yourself, I am not used to it. Anyway, there is good news and bad news, which do you wish to hear first?” Wu Long said mysteriously.
“Tell me the good news first.”
“The good news is this year’s hurricane season came earlier and left early as well. The weather report says that the Atlantic Ocean will be peaceful for the entire September. The exploration plan of Atlantis shall be brought forward.” Wu Long said excitedly.
Xia Fei clapped his hands. “It is indeed good. I am more than willing to see this legendary city which is filled with mysteries. What is the bad news?”
“We are being targeted.”The back of the mind seems to be deeply imprinted.
