Chapter 5
While the girls at 601 Beijing were going crazy for the Space Ring, Xia Ke had already fallen into a deep sleep.
The next day, she was awakened by the chirping of birds outside her window.
It was another beautiful day. After washing up, eating breakfast, and getting ready, it was already noon.
Today is Monday. Students and workers are either at school or at work, so they probably won't have time to watch the live stream. Even if it starts now, no one will watch it. Let's wait until 5 or 6 pm when the data flow is better.
With dismal livestream data, Xia Ke wasn't particularly enthusiastic. After finding a reason for herself, she started selling without a second thought. However, she was curious about the feedback from the customer who bought the Space Ring yesterday, so she opened the Douyin backend.
Considering the special nature of the goods, in order to deliver the goods to the buyers safely and in a timely manner, Xia Ke decided to use the system's dedicated logistics after careful consideration. The advantage of using the system's dedicated logistics is that the probability of lost packages and wrong delivery is 0, but the disadvantage is that it is ridiculously expensive!
The system's logistics and express delivery fees are not charged per item, but monthly. The monthly express delivery fee is 50,000 yuan, and the annual express delivery fee alone will cost 600,000 yuan!
600,000 yuan is enough for Xia Ke to buy a house in her hometown, a small county town, but for the sake of logistics security, she has to use the system's express delivery.
The packaging box on the space ring requires a verification code to open, but there are other ways. Apart from taking some effort, a knife, axe, and hammer are all good ways to open the box.
The space rings sent out are all uncertified. If she uses a regular courier service and someone opens the box and verifies the space ring during the logistics process, she will suffer a huge loss.
Fortunately, the system is powerful and even offers logistics services, which perfectly resolved her concerns. The downside is that it costs money.
Considering Xia Ke's current dire financial situation, the system agreed to the annual settlement payment.
Xia Ke opened the backend and saw that the buyer from last night had indeed left a comment.
"Space travel is real!!! Five stars for the space loop!!! I'm speechless with excitement, it's amazing! Tomorrow I plan to go home and build a space tunnel between home and school, so Mom won't have to worry about me not being able to buy a high-speed rail ticket home anymore!"
The buyer's excitement is evident in this extremely positive review containing the exclamation mark!
Xia Ke's mood brightened after reading it, and the corners of her mouth turned up in a smile.
She said, "No one can refuse to cross space! No one!"
There were several follow-up comments under this comment.
"Is it still in stock? Three of my roommates also want to buy it, but only one of them has successfully purchased it. The other two want to buy it, but it shows that it's out of stock."
'Please, streamer/store owner, restock!'
'Why can't my roommate eat or sleep well? Turns out it's because she didn't buy the shop owner's spatial ring! Shop owner, please have pity on my poor roommate and restock! (┳◇┳)'
"Restock?"
Xia Ke hurriedly checked her inventory and, sure enough, another space ring had been sold. The buyer was clearly the roommate mentioned in the comments.
When business comes knocking, it's impossible to refuse. Xia Keyuan only bought two space rings because she didn't have enough funds. The space rings she sold yesterday greatly relieved her financial pressure, and she finally had the funds to buy more goods from the system.
The two space rings sold for a total of 10,000 yuan. After deducting the 3% service fee from the online store, Xia Ke could get 9,700 yuan from the 10,000 yuan sales. Xia Ke set aside 2,700 yuan as a reserve, and used the remaining 7,000 yuan to buy more space rings from the system.
"New items have been added to the streamer's shop!"
"I'm here! I'm here!"
It was lunchtime, and the four of them, who were in the same major and shared the same dorm, spent most of their time attending classes and eating together, except for electives. They had just finished a class and were starving when Zhao Yan told them that the shop had new items. They quickly picked up their phones.
To be honest, 5,000 yuan is really expensive for college students. The girls in room 601 all come from ordinary families. Zhao Yan used her New Year's money and birthday red envelopes to buy the space ring. Two of her roommates asked their parents for the money, and the other roommate spent the money she saved from part-time jobs.
Xia Ke had just listed 7 items when someone immediately snapped them up, and the inventory showed only 4 items left.
Huh? Someone else bought two items.
Seeing that the three addresses in the backend were the same, Xia Ke smiled and happily hummed a song as she arranged for the shipment.
She sold four space rings today, and after deducting transaction fees, she made more than 19,000 yuan!
Earning over 10,000 a day!
She never dared to dream of such good days before; she had never had so much disposable cash.
Xia Ke was so happy she wanted to jump for joy.
"Thank you, system."
She sincerely thanked the system, saying that without it, she wouldn't be where she is today.
The system's reply was official and polite, and it also took the opportunity to urge the task progress.
[Helping the host complete tasks is the duty of the entrepreneurial intelligent assistant. While making money, please don't forget to complete the system tasks.]
"Don't worry, don't worry, I won't forget. With money, completing the mission will be a piece of cake!"
Xia Ke searched for agencies online, paid the fees, and handed over the entire company registration process to the agency. All she had to do was provide the necessary documents for company registration and show up when needed!
"Money makes the world go round. The first task is almost done. We just need to wait." Xia Ke waved her phone at the screen in front of her.
The message on her phone was from an agent promising to expedite her case.
Beijing City.
Zhao Yan only had one class in the afternoon. As soon as the teacher announced the end of get out of class, she rushed out of the classroom with her bag on her back.
She lives in Lingang City, which is next to Beijing. It only takes half an hour by high-speed rail to get there, making her the closest to home compared to her roommates.
The only downside is that Lingang City is located by the sea and is a seaside tourist city. People from Beijing usually choose to go to Lingang City to play and see the sea on weekends and holidays. This makes it the hardest to get a ticket home for her every weekend and holiday, even though it is the closest city.
With the development of the space ring, this problem was also solved.
Can't get a ticket? Then don't bother. With the spatial ring, you can step from your dorm into her room in one go.
Because it was a weekday, there weren't many people at the high-speed rail station, and Zhao Yan boarded the train home without any problems.
Mr. and Mrs. Zhao were not surprised by their daughter's sudden return home. This child was homesick, and since they lived nearby, she would come back every few days. They were already used to it.
The first thing Zhao Yan did when she got home was rush back to her room to create a personal space.
A familiar blue vortex appeared.
It's done!
Zhao Yan couldn't wait to step into the vortex and experience the wonder of spatial crossing.
As Zhao Yan disappeared from the room, her mother pushed open the door and entered.
"What does Yan Yan want to eat tonight?"
The daughter's bag was haphazardly thrown on the bed, but she was nowhere to be seen.
Where is the child?
She saw the person enter the room with her own eyes, but Zhao's mother, still not believing it, searched the room again and still couldn't find the person.
"Old Zhao, Old Zhao! Your daughter is missing!"
"What? Who's missing?"
After hearing the whole story, Zhao's father didn't take it seriously at all. "Maybe she went out when you weren't looking? Don't worry, she's a grown woman, she won't get lost."
Just as Zhao's father was making his vows, a blue vortex suddenly appeared in the room, and the person who walked out of the vortex was none other than their daughter whom they were looking for.
Mr. and Mrs. Zhao were so shocked that their eyes widened.
The thought that their daughter had been kidnapped by demons and monsters had just begun to cross their minds when their daughter, Zhao Yan, loudly explained that it was a matter of space travel and science, which at least stopped the couple from seeking out a master to exorcise the demons.
After calming down, Mr. and Mrs. Zhao were still skeptical. "Is this thing really that amazing?"
"Really, I just got back to my dorm through the spatial ring."
"With this, I won't need to take the high-speed rail back to school anymore. It's not only cheaper, but also more convenient and faster!"
"Let me see it?"
Zhao Yan placed the spatial ring in her mother's hand. Zhao's mother found it amazing that such a small gadget could transport people from Beijing to Dalian City in a flash. Moreover, according to her daughter, the person who sold such high-tech items was just an online streamer.
"I pressed all the buttons you mentioned, but it didn't work."
"Mom, it has an anti-loss mode, which can only be used by people who have been certified in the space ring and authorized by the certifier. That way, even if it is lost, someone else who finds it can only use it as a pretty decoration."
Even after their daughter explained so much, Mr. and Mrs. Zhao were still confused, but they both agreed that it was a good thing.
“Yanyan, Mom will transfer you some money. Buy two more and keep them at home. With these, you won’t have to drive two or three hours to visit your grandparents or maternal grandparents in the countryside.”
Zhao's mother planned to give one to each of them, but Zhao's father felt it wasn't enough.
“I’ll buy four more. My parents and in-laws are getting old. I used to worry about them and didn’t let them come to visit often. With these, it will be much easier for the four of them to visit each other. They can come over anytime they want to see Yan Yan.”
According to Zhao's father, there are never enough of these things, given the large number of relatives and friends in the family. If it weren't for the fact that these things are not cheap, he would have liked to buy a few more.
"Six spatial rings costing 30,000? That's too expensive!"
Zhao Yan knew her parents had savings, but she still felt bad about spending so much money at once.
"It's a bit expensive, but it saves a lot of trouble. People often say that time is money. Although our family's time isn't worth much, it's worth it to save us the trouble of traveling. Besides, your grandparents are getting old, and your parents have always wanted to take them out to see the beautiful landscapes of our country. It's just that the plan has been put on hold because the elderly can't travel by car. This thing is just like a car. We bought it for the convenience of travel. It's also faster and more flexible than others. It's worth the money."
Although Mr. and Mrs. Zhao are usually frugal, they are not stingy. They will buy what they need as long as it is within their means, and they will never spend a penny more on things they don't need.
The couple considered the Space Ring an absolute must-buy. Not only did they buy it themselves, but they also shared its amazing features and links with their family and friends, recommending it to their relatives and friends.
However, given that the two old men described the space ring in a very fantastical way, the people in the group didn't buy it. They just thought that the couple had been brainwashed by some unscrupulous swindler again. Therefore, Xia Ke only received six new purchase records from Zhao Yan in the backend.
Xia Ke quickly replenished the stock and had the system ship the goods out.
