The True Thousand Gold Possessions of the Myriad Realms Trading System

"That's not up to us to decide," Gao Yang waved his hand. "Besides, if a fight really breaks out, we'll just run away. It's not like it's the first time we've fought."

Ruan Mianmian was just coming out of the mall when she heard this and was taken aback.

There's war here too?

Gao Yang also saw Ruan Mianmian and immediately brought his colleagues over, saying to Ruan Mianmian, "Ms. Ruan, these are my colleagues. They are very interested in your products."

Ruan Mianmian sincerely thanked Gao Yang: "Thank you so much."

Gao Yang was the first person she met when she arrived in this world. He helped her a lot and did not bully or exploit her, a stranger, as some novels depict.

Before leaving, she insisted on treating Gao Yang to a meal to express her gratitude, and of course, a gift was also essential.

Gao Yang smiled and said, "No need to be polite." Then, looking at his group of colleagues who were staring at Ruan Mianmian with starry eyes, he said, "Hurry up and go shopping."

Ruan Mianmian also looked at everyone: "We will close at seven o'clock, so if you want to shop, you need to hurry."

Making money is difficult, so she really wanted to extend her business hours, but the system stipulated the time, and she could only comply with it with tears in her eyes.

The crowd remained unhurried and approached Ruan Mianmian, saying, "Miss, we'd all like to be friends with you. Could you please give us your contact information?"

"Miss Ruan, you are so beautiful. May I ask which planet you come from?"

Gao Yang was speechless: "Didn't I ask you for your discarded chip phones? It was for Miss Ruan. She comes from a remote planet and doesn't have chip phones. So, don't even think about getting her contact information."

Ruan Mianmian was a little worried after hearing this.

They are openly telling the world that they are unregistered residents, which is extremely dangerous.

Unexpectedly, Gao Yang's colleagues did not show any surprise after hearing his words. Instead, they all nodded and said, "I see. Perfect timing. I just changed my phone last month. The old one was still working fine. I'll bring it over for you tomorrow."

"I had two, haha, but I didn't like them because they were worn out, so I replaced them. However, they're not high-end brands, so I hope Miss Ruan won't mind."

Ruan Mianmian quickly replied, "No problem, no problem." After a pause, she added, "We'll take even the broken ones. If any of you have any, we're willing to pay a certain reward." She continued, "Usable phones can continue to be used, and broken ones can be taken apart for research."

"No need for any compensation, it's just sitting at home anyway," everyone chimed in.

Ruan Mianmian didn't say much, but she was determined to give a reward, even though the reward she offered wouldn't be very valuable.

Since they couldn't get Ruan Mianmian's contact information for the time being, everyone went shopping at Gao Yang's urging.

Seeing that Gao Yang hadn't left, Ruan Mianmian asked him, "Mr. Gao, if you tell everyone that I don't have a cell phone, will everyone know that we are unregistered residents?"

Gao Yang laughed and said, "There's nothing to be afraid of if you're an unregistered resident. Here, as long as you don't commit any crimes, the higher-ups don't care whether you're an unregistered resident or not." He then explained to Ruan Mianmian.

It turns out that although unregistered individuals do not have to pay taxes, which seems to harm the interests of the public, they also cannot receive public welfare. So, the two are actually roughly equivalent.

Are there any unregistered individuals who earn a lot of money?

No.

Those who earn more are all employed, and employed people are all registered with their companies, so they cannot possibly be unregistered individuals.

In addition, wars are frequently waged against children here. After each war, there are always more undocumented immigrants. Since it is a border planet, the central planet is too lazy to care, and the planet itself feels there is no profit to be made from it, so it is too lazy to bother with it.

Therefore, unregistered individuals do exist, but they are not discriminated against.

However, people without proper identification, like Ruan Mianmian and others, will be unable to purchase mobile phones that represent their identity, access the internet, or shop online.

Because of these demands, there is a huge second-hand market here, including mobile phones, motorcycles, and everything else that cannot be bought.

After listening, Ruan Mianmian immediately said, "In that case, sell me the used phone at the market price, okay?" Seeing that Gao Yang was about to refuse, she said...

“I know you mean well, but we can’t just accept your help without giving anything in return. Later, I plan to buy a scrapped or used flying car, and I can’t expect you to give those away for free, can I? Friends shouldn’t give to each other unilaterally.”

Gao Yang smiled, his eyes crinkling: "So I'm Miss Ruan's friend now?"

Ruan Mianmian smiled and nodded: "If you don't mind, I will naturally consider you a friend."

"How could I possibly look down on it? I feel honored!" Gao Yang said happily. "You want a scrapped or used flying car, right? I know where to find them. I'll take you to buy one after I rest. But you'll need to prepare the money in advance."

Ruan Mianmian nodded quickly: "Okay."

It was getting dark, almost 7 p.m.

Gao Yang's colleagues, like everyone else, came out of the mall with large and small bags.

Upon seeing this, Ruan Mianmian asked Gao Yang, "Don't you have anything here to store things? You mean, those spatial devices that can put a lot of things into a small box?"

Gao Yang nodded: "Yes, there are, but they're too expensive." He held up one finger. "Just one cubic meter of space costs two million universe coins. On our remote planet, apart from the very top few, no one can afford it."

Ruan Mianmian was both surprised and delighted to hear this.

What was surprising was the unusually high price, but what was gratifying was that there were at least things like space rings.

Afterwards, Ruan Mianmian asked Gao Yang if it was safe here at night, and what precautions she should take if she went out at night. She kept Gao Yang's answers in mind.

After seeing Gao Yang and the others off, Ruan Mianmian returned to the mall and saw Tang You and the others staring at their laptops with grim expressions. She went up to them and asked, "Is the sales volume very low?"

Tang You looked up at Ruan Mianmian: "Guess how much our revenue is today?"

Ruan Mianmian held up one index finger and tentatively asked, "Ten thousand?"

Tang You shook her head: "No, only 4782.5! Not even 5000!" Even though she knew the daily turnover wouldn't be high after seeing Gao Yang's shopping, she didn't expect it to be this low!

With a daily turnover of less than 5000, it would take 40 days, or more than a month, to buy a flying car worth 20!

If it takes them more than a month to buy a flying car, then in this world, they can't afford much.

Now that they've entered the treasure mountain, but can't take any more treasures with them, everyone is filled with disappointment.

Upon seeing this, Ruan Mianmian said, "We don't necessarily need to buy a 20 yuan flying car. I asked around, and there are scrapped or very old but still usable flying cars around here. In short, the second-hand market here is very rich. We don't need to buy new things, we can just buy used ones."

Then he relayed the information that there was no danger at night and that it was safe to go out.

After hearing Ruan Mianmian's words, everyone's disheartened mood finally improved a little.

Then, Gu Shi and Professor Huang said in unison, "Let's go out and rummage through the trash cans right away!"
