The little wild cat watch on Finn Lewis’ wrist automatically adjusted the time. He couldn’t help but chuckle as he looked at it—it was somewhat disorienting. To him, clearly, more than ten days had passed, but to others in the modern world, Finn had only been gone for a day or two.

He took out his phone and checked his missed calls. There weren’t many, but there were quite a few unread messages. None of them were that important, just daily life stuff. There was also a greeting message from Kay Lee. Finn replied to Kay, informing her that he had been in a meeting all day and had not checked his phone.

He chatted with Kay Lee for a bit before returning to his hotel. After their conversation, Finn rubbed his temples, chuckling bitterly. This running back and forth was not a pleasant thing. What seemed like a simple thing—passing a day in the past—resulted in ten days gone by for Finn in the year 1837. Adjusting back to the present required some effort.

He returned to his hotel room and made a call to Henry Lewis. “Young master, you’re back,” Henry Lewis’ voice was steady.

“Yeah, I’m back. Did you manage to take care of that thing I asked you to do?” Finn asked immediately.

“Both Rhine Kingdom Bank and Red Flower Bank have taken away all the gold. The payment they promised us is already in place. Additionally, each bank has dispatched a team of fifteen financial consultants. They are on their way to Darwin Harbor,” Henry Lewis quickly informed him.

“So many?” Finn was surprised. He knew about private financial advisory teams. Generally, if you have over a billion federal coins worth of assets, these banks would provide you with a personal financial advisor. However, the most they would dispatch was one person, and these personal financial advisors managed multiple billionaires at once.

“They know that your assets don’t just consist of these forty billion or so federal coins,” Henry Lewis replied with a chuckle.

Finn nodded, realizing that both Rhine Kingdom Bank and Red Flower Bank had rolled out financial teams that far exceeded what is typically allocated for the amount of money Finn held with them. Even if the sum was a dozen or so billion federal coins, being assigned a group of three to five financial advisors would be fabulous. Now, each company was sending fifteen people! Such a large scale far exceeded the level of Finn’s current status.

The banks’ attempts to curry favor with him were obvious. “Alright, I understand. Is the warehouse rental sorted out?” Finn inquired.

“Yes, it’s all set. Considering your next likely move, I went ahead and bought over a dozen large warehouses in Darwin Harbor. These include various types of warehouses, refrigerated seafood ships, etc.,” Henry replied promptly.

“Okay, I’m headed to the warehouse now to transport the first batch of goods back,” Finn nodded. His personal space was 360 cubic meters, far from enough to ship all the goods in one go.

Although Darwin Harbor wasn’t densely populated, it was a noteworthy port in the northwest of the Proudly Nation. There weren’t many cargo ships passing through, but it had more than its share of warehouses. Finn’s dozen or so large, varied types of warehouses amount to nearly fifty percent of all those in Darwin Harbor. Anticipating that Finn would ultimately need to expand his operations, Henry had already begun negotiating with the local authorities about acquiring land around the warehouse. The goal was to develop a part of it into a private port and warehouse district.

Finn located a warehouse for general goods storage and ordered Zero to unleash the antiques and furniture. All these artifacts had already been prepared and packaged in 1837 in the Governor City of the Realm. The porcelain pieces were packed in wooden boxes, buffered by straw, ready to be placed directly into the warehouse.

Actually, Finn didn’t have to do much. However, he had to make four trips in total—considering the first time he came back—to transport all of it. That amounted to more than 1400 cubic meters of items in total!

Especially the porcelain. Only then did Finn realize how much he had bought! Official Kiln porcelain from the reign of Daoguang in the Qing dynasty, and he finally figured out how much porcelain a major household would have! These porcelain pieces, crafted just two or three years prior, were certified Official Kiln!

He had no clue how the appraisal experts of this era would view them, given that these porcelain items looked too new! Gazing around the massive warehouse brimming with antiques, Finn felt a great sense of accomplishment. If he were to auction these items, the collection he brought back was enough to start his own museum!

However, Finn underestimated the value of what he brought back. As he closed the warehouse door, Zero suddenly announced: “Points received.”

Finn was taken aback and soon found his phone from his pocket to check his point balance. He jumped when he saw the number and rubbed his eyes in disbelief. “Zero, are you sure there isn’t a mistake?” Finn asked incredulously.

“My computations are never incorrect. The assessed worth factoring in the butterfly effect of these items appearing in this world, minus standard depreciation, results in a final figure of 1,572,333 points,” Zero answered as usual.

Indeed, Finn now had more than 1.58 million points! That is to say, just for these items, he had gained over 1.57 million points! That’s 1.57 million points, equating to a whopping 15-7 billion federal coins in value! Was the stuff in this one warehouse really worth this much? Finn looked up at the ceiling of the packed warehouse, amazed.

The value of 15-7 billion federal coins, what was it equivalent to? Converted to Flame Nation coins, it’s close to 100 billion Flame Nation coins! And how much did Finn spend? Only 1.27 million taels of silver, or about 40 tons of silver. An approximate price per kilogram of silver was 4110 Flame Nation coins, so 1 ton equaled 4.1 million, and 40 tons was just 160 million.

That’s a 1000-fold profit! Most importantly, it seemed that Finn had simply acquired the silver as a pirate with no investment! Now it was finally clear why the Six-Dimensional Saiyan Crystal needed 1 million points to be activated. It was obscenely profitable!

Finn couldn’t help but salivate as he subconsciously asked, “Zero, are there any more of these Six-Dimensional Saiyan Crystals?”

“Yes.” Zero’s response was crisp.

“Really?! How many points are needed to redeem them?!” Finn was stunned, then yelled. Finn had now tasted the sweetness of profits! This was an entire world of wealth! What did it mean to possess the wealth of a whole world, there was no need to ask, was there?! Finn could now truly appreciate it.

“Unable to redeem. It’s classified as an extremely rare item that can only be obtained through the random draw system.”

“It can only be drawn? Then may I ask, how is this extremely rare item defined? In other words, how many of these Six-Dimensional Saiyan Crystals are there?” Finn reacted quickly with the questions..
