Chapter 234 Permanent Cancellation of Purchase Eligibility (Bonus Chapter)

In a dormitory at a university in China.

Liu Zhe leaned back comfortably in his dormitory chair, his feet propped up on the edge of the table. The light from his phone screen reflected his smug expression as he opened his bank app for the seventeenth time, looking at the clear numbers in the balance column.

"Sold for 200,000... Hehe! A whole 200,000!"

He was the "lucky one" who sold the "Qiankun Instrument" to a middleman.

The initial investment was 20,000, and after a single resale, a zero was added to the end. This money was even more satisfying than getting rare equipment in a game.

"These idiots treat a gaming device like a treasure."

"While holography sounds impressive, what's the difference between playing with it sooner or later?"

He hummed a smug tune: "The first batch is limited to one purchase, it's a scarcity marketing tactic, I get it~ But can the second, third, and tenth batches also be limited to one purchase? Once their production capacity comes up, won't they be able to buy them as easily as mobile phones? With this 200,000 yuan, four years of happiness in college are just around the corner!"

In the past few days, he got the latest mobile phone, bought a top-of-the-line computer, treated his roommates to a big meal, and enjoyed the envious or jealous looks from those around him. He felt that he had reached the pinnacle of his life.

The official website is selling the second batch at noon today, and he plans to log in to check the situation. If he can still buy in the second batch, he might even be able to sell it again! He's really a little business genius!

As he pondered this, he opened the official sales platform for the "Qiankun Instrument." It was the familiar login interface and the familiar countdown.

He filled in his identity information in advance, and when the sales time arrived, he clicked the purchase button without hesitation. However, the payment page did not pop up like the first time, nor did it show any purchase limit.

Instead, a red pop-up window appeared.

[Dear User: Liu Zhe (ID No.: 340xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx), according to system backend detection, your "Qiankunyi" device (serial number: QK-2025-0823-CN-073581) has been illegally resold overseas.]

[In accordance with the user agreement and relevant regulations, your eligibility to purchase has been permanently revoked, and this has been recorded in your personal credit profile.]

Liu Zhe's smile froze instantly. He raised his hand to rub his eyes and brought his face close to the screen, thinking he was seeing things.

Permanent cancellation?

Credit history?

He frantically refreshed the page, even logging out and logging back in, but every time, the same red pop-up appeared, along with that piercingly cruel message.

"No...impossible! This is impossible!"

Cold sweat poured down his forehead. This was a bit outrageous! Just reselling a gaming device—was it really worth permanently disqualifying him from buying games and recording it in his credit history?! Wouldn't this affect his chances of taking civil service exams, graduate school entrance exams, or any other exams?!

It must be a system error! Yes! It must be! With trembling hands, he dialed the official customer service number.

"Hello, your account has been locked and we are unable to provide you with human assistance. Goodbye." The cold, synthesized electronic voice ruthlessly hung up the phone.

It's over.

Liu Zhe's mind went blank with a buzz. He slumped into his chair, feeling as if he had fallen into an ice cave. Only now did he belatedly realize what he had done wrong.

That's not a game console.

That was a ticket to a new world!

For the sake of that ridiculous two hundred thousand, he thought himself clever and sold this invaluable ticket to some unknown person, and then locked the door, leaving himself out forever!

No! He doesn't know who he sold it to, but the system indicates that he sold it to someone overseas!

He regretted it! He regretted it so much he was green with envy! He always thought that the so-called purchase limits and exclusive binding were just gimmicks and marketing tactics used by apps to attract new users! He thought that the quotas would definitely be opened up later. Who would have thought that the government was serious about it!

He opened the official forum for "Spiritual Resurrection" in a daze and typed a post with trembling hands.

[I was wrong, I was really wrong. I sold the Qiankun Instrument, and now I've been permanently blacklisted. What should I do? Please, official team, give me another chance!]

After posting the message, he hoped to receive some comfort, or that an expert could offer guidance, or even that the authorities would see his attitude and give him another chance.

However, he was met with a barrage of ridicule and contempt.

Serves you right! Sold yourself to nobody for a little money, and now you regret it? Too late!

Upstairs, he sold it to people overseas.

[Hilarious! I was still worrying about not having any spiritual roots, and you just deleted your account? You're truly amazing! I suggest you be added to the annual list of abstract celebrities!]

Here's a candle for you, best of luck on your journey.

[Brothers, come check out this Cyber ​​Joker of the Year who tore up his ticket for 200,000! Front row seats available for sale: sunflower seeds, peanuts, bottled water, beer, soft drinks, and instant noodles!]

[Really? Holy crap! Mine sold too, for 300,000... I'm sweating buckets, guys, I'm going to check it out!]

I sold mine too...

[That's exactly right! I tried twice and failed, and you people still dare to sell them?! Good riddance! It's so satisfying!]

[What's the big deal? If I can't buy it, I won't. It's just a game, and I don't even like playing it anyway. By the way, are there any sellers still buying it? I'll try to snag one next time and sell it! Highest bidder wins! Looking for a seller online!]

Wow, it can really sell for hundreds of thousands? I don't even play games, but I'd like to be with the same seller. You pay first, I'll try to snatch it.

[I suggest the network administrator check these people and cancel their spots immediately; they're so annoying!]

[Please stop fighting! Even though you're out of spots, your credit history has been recorded!]

The person upstairs knows how to comfort people!

Liu Zhe stared at the glaring comments, his vision blurring. Seeing the "sweating profusely" guy, he felt a strange sense of balance. Then he saw those ultimate idiots still "waiting for the boss," and he even wanted to jump into the screen and slap them.

Just as the entire internet was engrossed in watching this "annual fool show,"

In the official forum of "Spiritual Resurrection", an inconspicuous post was unearthed by someone and quietly climbed to the top of the trending list.

The poster's ID is "Brick-Moving Guy," an unknown physical cultivation player who usually posts trivial posts like "I moved 500 bricks today, and I feel my energy and blood are booming again."

The title of the post is very simple, consisting of only one sentence.

But the contents are enough to make anyone who sees them's heart race.

"Brothers, I think I've...discovered a huge secret!"
