Chapter 29: 029 Master is not online

In the interstellar era, logistics travel at the speed of light. As long as a planet is equipped and loaded with a Light-speed Belt, it can facilitate the rapid transfer of goods between planets. Before the items in Ji You’s shop are listed on the shelf, she would specifically contact the robots from interstellar express to handle packaging and store the items in the transfer station of Light Speed Express company. The transfer station is linked to the Star Network, and as soon as someone places an order, the station immediately dispatches the goods. The whole process is fully automated without any manual intervention, and there’s no risk of loss.

On the other side, Ah Da and several of his fans, after purchasing the grass seed fruit necklace, didn’t really think much of it until the Light Speed Express delivery network delivered the parcels into their hands, which suddenly reminded them of their purchase.

Ah Da’s parcel was received by a home-use robot. After receiving it, the robot reminded him of the new parcel. He was busy at the moment and thought it was just a small grass seed fruit pendant, so he didn’t pay much attention to it.

So, delaying like this, it wasn’t until the evening that Ah Da finally took the time to open the parcel.

Upon opening it, what caught his eyes was a crystal-clear bead, obviously intricately crafted, polished to be very round and glossy. What surprised Ah Da repeatedly were the beautifully carved patterns on it.

Tender green branches and leaves, buds ready to bloom, if one didn’t know it was fake, at first glance, one might really mistake it for a bead that actually contained a blooming fresh flower.

Such craftsmanship truly is astonishing.

Ah Da held it and admired it for a while before he could bear to put it down.

Then—

His gaze suddenly fixed, stopping on the cord used to hang the pendant. The cord was made of Iron Pear Wood fibers. Clearly, this wasn’t top-quality Iron Pear Wood but discarded scraps. The person who made it had a clever idea; she recycled these scraps and wove them together. Upon closer inspection—

Is this woven pattern a flat knot?

A Vajra Knot?

A Skylark Knot?

...

No!

None of the above.

Most of the cord used a four-strand braid, with a mandala knot in the middle linking the bead, and then—

How marvelous!

The way this person thought about weaving is simply brilliant!

The beautifully made cord and the lovely bead cleverly combined turn this originally ordinary grass seed fruit pendant into something stylish, classy, and beautiful!

So beautiful!

Originally, Ah Da thought of putting it in the storage room as one of his own collections, but after receiving the actual item and because the pendant was too beautiful, he couldn’t help but hang it around his neck to see—

And it actually looked pretty good.

Originally, as a big man, he thought wearing such a pendant would make him look effeminate, but it actually looked very harmonious. Not just harmonious, Ah Da felt that it made him seem a deeper person.

Hmm.

Since that’s the case, he might as well keep wearing it.

Ah Da thought to himself.

So, Ah Da wore the pendant and directly went to bed. The next day when he woke up, he felt refreshed. Not only did he feel mentally good, but all the physical fatigue also seemed completely gone. As a Star Network host, his daily schedule was highly irregular—he often stayed up late and was always tired the next day, his body heavy like iron—he usually needed to eat several meals of natural food nutrition meals to recover.

But today, for some reason, he didn’t feel tired at all.

At first, Ah Da couldn’t figure out the reason and thought it was because of the expensive ginseng from Changbai Mountain on Blue Star he bought the day before yesterday, which is a very expensive natural food ingredient with great benefits for the body.

If it was the ginseng that caused this, that wouldn’t be surprising.

After breakfast, Ah Da took a short rest and then went to the gym for physical training.

About two hours later, Ah Da came out of the gym dragging his exhausted body and immediately collapsed on the sofa, completely limp like a dead fish, not wanting to move at all.

One second.

Two seconds.

Three seconds.

...

Ten minutes later, Ah Da felt much more relaxed, stood up, and stretched his limbs. By now, he found it a bit odd; normally, after such intense training, he would need at least half an hour to recover.

But now?

Ten minutes?

Disbelieving, Ah Da took a special look at the vintage wall clock: it was indeed ten minutes.

Ah Da scratched his head, quite puzzled.

Then, he began to organize the content for today’s live stream. Although it seems like he just casually walks around on Star Network during the stream, as if everything happens by coincidence, each step he takes is actually pre-planned and calculated.

Otherwise—

Where in the world would there be so many opportunities to find overlooked valuable items?

Of course—

Ah Da wasn’t entirely faking it. The items he buys during his daily live streams are genuinely bought, these items aren’t pre-arranged but are identified by sending out several assistants to scout the locations beforehand and confirm there is something valuable overlooked, only then does he proceed there.

With the advancement of the live streaming business today, if one’s content has no unique features, it simply won’t make a splash. Thus, Ah Da feels this is a necessary method.

However, stumbling into Ji You’s shop and buying a few grass seed fruits was truly accidental.

Ah Da looked at the report sent by his assistant, his eyebrows increasingly furrowing: these items weren’t rare or of any extra value, as content for today’s stream, they simply had no appeal.

Ah Da propped his hands on his head, massaging his scalp.

One time.

Two times.

Three times.

...

The more he rubbed, the more comfortable he felt.

Not just his head relaxed, his whole being unwittingly became blank.

Time silently slipped away...

Ah Da withdrew his hands and glanced unintentionally:

Huh?

Why was he still wearing this Grass Seed Fruit Pendant?

Ah Da thought for a moment, remembering that he went to bed very late last night and forgot to take it off, so he ended up sleeping with the pendant on, and forgot to remove it upon waking. Considering he had a meeting with a famous Soul Artifact Master today, he definitely shouldn’t wear this thing; it would seem very disrespectful! If he inadvertently made a bad impression on the Master, his request would be even more difficult.

Subsequently, Ah Da took off the necklace and placed it on the table.

After grooming, dressing up, and making some slight preparations, he then set off to the meeting location.

Dressed sharply in a suit and looking elegant, Ah Da arrived at Dodger Research Institute on Main Star. The main hall of Dodger Research Institute was very quiet. There was a reception desk upfront, and he walked towards it, greeting the reception staff with a smile, "Hello, I have an appointment with Master Mickey Dodge at 1:10 PM."

"Are you Mr. Cheng Yu? I am sorry, Master Dodge has some urgent matters and cannot keep the appointment," the reception staff said politely and kindly, but their words chilled Ah Da’s heart.
