"Fortunately, my guess was correct…"
Jin Moxi leaned his back against the backrest of the sofa, he had just checked his bank account, all left untouched.
"7.7 million yuan, after also selling my house, I should be able to get some good land somewhere." His gaze drifted toward the system's screen showing a recently received Mission.

"Hm… stockpiling is easy, after all with the 'Infinite Duplication' and 'Spatial Storage', I have essentially infinite amounts of them… now with land…"
He decided to leave his house and purchase land, just to get it out of his way.
…
"Welcome, Sir, how may I help you? Are you here to rent, or buy a house?" The brown-haired lady asked.
He waved his hand. "Neither, I was actually going to-"
As Jin Moxi was speaking a rude voice interrupted the conversation. "Lin Weiyin, I've already called you to go and help out in the back, why are you here?"
Lin Weiyin, taken aback, stared back confused. "What are you talking about, Manager Liang? I don't remember that and I have a client to attend to."
"Have you lost your mind? Just do what I told you, and take a good look at him, do you think he can actually afford anything?" Managed Liang said as he looked down on Jin Moxi.
Jin Moxi let out a disappointed sigh as he stared at the current situation, he just wanted to be able to purchase his land smoothly. "Excuse me, I have a business with her…"
"Hey, don't waste both of our time here, you can just stay silent and go out peacefully or I'll have to kick you out myself…" Manager Liang threatened, trying to intimidate Jin Moxi with his size.
'So annoying… if this was the apocalypse, I'd already rip his heart out…' Jin Moxi thought, feeling annoyed. "Hah… are you looking down on people based on appearance?"
Manager Liang flashed a menacing smile. "Yeah, so what? It's not like I'm wrong…" and then added mockingly, "am I~?"
"Your mouth really does move faster than your brain, and I'm not here to rent or even buy a house, I'm here to buy land!" Jin Moxi declared confidently.
Lin Weiyin led him toward a nearby table and chair with a smile on her face. "Alright! Come this way, Sir! Let me give you a detailed introduction!"
"Tch! Anyone can claim they want to buy anything, the important part is that you'll be willing and have the ability to purchase it! I'll be interested in how you'll come up with that much money…" Manager Liang muttered in frustration.
"Sir, these are the pieces of land we currently have available. You can take a look at them while I explain." Lin Weiyin handed over the documents of lands toward Jin Moxi which he calmly rejected.
He doesn't want to waste too much time. "No need, I'll just tell you my requirements, and you see if there's anything that matches."
Lin Weiyin nodded. "Ah, alright, please go ahead, Sir!"
He rubbed the outline of his chin and calmly recalled the mental list of land requirements he had made. "I would like a land that's near the mountain and water, preferably running water, it must have somewhat convenient transportation, and there's a factory or large buildings on it. Did you get that?"
"Ah yes, let me think…" Lin Weiyin thought for a moment before her mind landed on a specific land. "There's three that don't fully fit the requirements."
Jin Moxi took the given documents and read through them. 'This land does have good transportation and the factory is definitely top quality, but there's no water nearby and the other two are also not the best choice, one is located in a rather open area and the other is very difficult to get to…'
"What a shame…" he muttered under his breath.
Manager Liang then approached them. "What's happening? Why haven't you made a choice yet? Hmph! As expected you're just a fraud."
"Fraud…" Jin Moxi sighed and decided to ignore him.
Lin Weiyin decided to intervene and explained Jin Moxi's land requirements to Manager Liang.
"Don't those requirements fit one of the lands within the northeastern district?" Manager Liang said.
Lin Weiyin racked her brain to remember. "Eh? Northeast?"
"Yes, we haven't been able to sell that one for a while now. If he could take it out of hand then so be it, I'll even kneel and apologize for my rudeness earlier if he does!" He spoke with a giant grin on his face, confident that the land he mentioned wouldn't be bought.
"Ah! You mean 'that' land in the northeastern district? The one with so many unfinished projects? The Green City one?" Lin Weiyin asked, trying to make sure.
Manager Liang stared at her with annoyance. "Yes, are you deaf?"
"Miss Lin, does this Green City place really fit my requirements?" Jin Moxi asked, curious.
"Yes, it does have the elements that you search for…" Lin Weiyin hesitantly answered. "I'm sorry if you're dissatisfied-"
Jin Moxi tapped the table once. "I'll take it."
…
"Wow, over half a million yuan as a down payment…? It seems that I really looked down on you…" Manager Liang remarked seeing the undeniable evidence.
Jin Moxi revealed a faint smile. "So?"
"Fine, fine." He kneeled down, forehead touching the floor and exclaimed. "I'm sorry for my rudeness, dear esteemed customer!"
"Hey, look, isn't that Manager Liang?"
"Wow, he's actually apologising, I guess he met his match!"
"It's going to be a waste to not record this!"
The chatter among the bystanders permeated the air, Manager Liang quickly stood up and scolded everyone. "Damn you! Just because I apologise to him doesn't mean I'll be soft to you bitches!"
Jin Moxi stared at the raging Manager Liang and let out a sigh. 'Interesting… alright, should I begin my stockpiling?'
He walked out of the store and disappeared into the crowd.
— Ding!
[ Own a piece of land - 1/1 ]
"29 days before it began…" Jin Moxi muttered with a gloomy expression as he exited a convenience store, on his hand he materialized a soda bottle and calmly took a sip.
