The Interstellar Queen of Scavengers-Chapter 914: Following the Trend

The auction concluded, even a few Dream Catchers, which were purely decorative and had no practical use, were sold off, and now Ji You had a billion in her pocket, suddenly feeling like the wind accompanies her as she walks.

With her head high and chest proud, she went back and forth in the shop’s backstage, counting her account balance carefully, one zero, two zeros, three zeros... The more she counted, the bigger the smile on her lips.

It feels great to be rich.

...

Afterward, Ji You wore a stern face, bracing herself against the pain, and transferred a million credit points from her account to Teacher Cheng Yu.

Cough cough...

Originally, the commission agreed upon for hiring this salesman was a thousand credit points each time, cough cough... then, depending on circumstances, a bit more could be given as a bonus. Now, the million, Ji You transferred it with her heart clutched, eyes shut; if she didn’t shut her eyes, she feared she might regret it.

But——

Cheng Yu is her teacher after all, though he teaches arts and humanities... he’s still a teacher, and Ji You knew the least about respecting one’s teachers.

Cough cough...

She wasn’t worried that someday she’d be exposed for hiring her teacher at a low rate.

Absolutely not.

...

Once the credit points were transferred, Ji You logged off immediately to sleep.

The next day.

Just at the break of dawn, Ji You got up for a morning run; her Physical Strength is now B-level, and her spiritual power is also B-level. It seems there’s still a long way to go before advancing to A-level, but now Ji You can run around the dormitory area in merely 10 minutes or so, at most 20 laps in a morning, which, compared to before, was unimaginable for Ji You.

Mind you, half a year ago, she couldn’t even complete one lap the whole morning on her first run, slowly it increased to merely 3-4 laps or so.

...

During the run, unexpectedly, she ran into Chu Jiaojiao, Sheng Qingyan, Shen Changqing, Yue Qiguang, and Yue Qiyuan, these five often accompanied Ji You in running, which wasn’t surprising, but—Liu Fufeng, the sickly one, was also spotted.

At the back of the running squad, Liu Fufeng ran taking three breaths for each step, seemingly about to collapse at any moment, yet stubborn like a tumbler, not falling over...

Chu Jiaojiao was the first to finish 20 laps, followed by Yue Qiguang, Sheng Qingyan, Shen Changqing, and Yue Qiyuan, while Ji You brought up the rear; as for Liu Fufeng? Liu Fufeng was still strong and solo-running...

When Ji You reached the flower bed beside the dormitory building as the finish line, Chu Jiaojiao, Sheng Qingyan, Yue Qiguang... all 5 were squatting next to the lotus pool in the flower bed, each holding the same item.

This thing... had beautiful mesh and feather tassels that looked very familiar to Ji You.

—What else if not a Dream Catcher?

Ji You’s lips twitched, "What are you doing with this thing so early in the morning?"

Sheng Qingyan, unhappy, pouted, "This is a Dream Catcher, you know? Such a beautiful item, how dare you speak about it in that tone."

Yue Qiguang, Yue Qiyuan, and others: "We don’t allow you to talk like that either!"

Ji You: "..."

Being a completely smitten fan of the Green Glaze Master would be one thing for Sheng Qingyan, but Yue Qiguang, Yue Qiyuan, Chu Jiaojiao, and even Shen Changqing, the honest kid, saying that left Ji You a bit speechless. She couldn’t help but retort with a pout, "What’s beautiful or not beautiful about it? It’s just a decoration."

Sheng Qingyan glared at her and scolded, "Although a decoration, designed by the Green Glaze Master, even decoration would be something special," he said, touching his Dream Catcher like a treasure.

Seeing this, Ji You reached out, but Sheng Qingyan backed off a step, vigilantly, "This was acquired through much effort, I’m not letting you touch it."

Ji You: "..."

Ji You scoffed lightly, "What’s so special?" She was tempted to say—Isn’t this thing in your hand made by myself?

Sheng Qingyan wouldn’t let her touch it, but with a glance, Ji You could make out the contour, structure, and materials of his Dream Catcher, and the barely visible signature of her own design, the special trademark of the Green Glaze Master at the knotted end.

It’s made by herself.

Then.

Ji You took a few more glances at the Dream Catchers of Chu Jiaojiao, Yue Qiyuan... realizing they weren’t made by herself. Puzzled, she asked, "Where did you buy them?"

Chu Jiaojiao replied, "On Star Network."

Ji You asked, "When did you buy them?"

Chu Jiaojiao chuckled gleefully, "Bought them before going to sleep."

Ji You: "..."

Ji You drew a deep breath, turning to Shen Changqing, Yue Qiyuan, Yue Qiguang, "All of you?"

Three nodding heads: "Yes."

Ji You’s lips twitched, "These days, following trends gets too swift, doesn’t it?"

The Dream Catcher, which she had put on sale on Star Network only yesterday, had been knocked off by nighttime, and these replicas were just like the ones she crafted, save for the trademark.

Shen Changqing raised the Dream Catcher gently, letting it dance in the wind as he looked at Ji You and said, "Last night’s auction by the Green Glaze Master was thriving; everyone wanted the Soul Devices but couldn’t compete for them. Among those, only 6 ordinary Dream Catchers were available, and besides Ayan, none of us got one. Not long after you logged off, the Star Network had replicas, many went to buy, and we joined in the fun, so we bought them too."

At this point, Shen Changqing paused, then earnestly said, "This, it really looks nice."

After logging off, such a thing happened? Ji You asked, "How much did you buy it for?"

Shen Changqing replied, "5000 credit points."

Ji You: "..."

Ji You drew a deep breath, unable to hold back, "5000, and you spent that? If you said earlier, I’d make them for you! Just ask, I’ll make as many as needed!"

Sheng Qingyan smirked, "You can do it?"

Ji You blurted out, "Can’t do it now, but can learn!" Considering her hand speed, these ordinary Dream Catchers, dozens could be mass-produced in a day, selling at 5000 credit points each, how much is that for a hundred?

500,000!

A hundred pieces, finished in about two days. Earning 500,000 in two days, where else can one find such a good deal? It’s a better strategy than scouring Star Sea for scraps or collecting Star Beast corpses.

Ji You was genuinely tempted.

Sheng Qingyan rolled his eyes, "By the time you learn, it will be too late."

Hearing this, Ji You indignantly put her hands on her hips, "You underestimated me! Something like this, I could make hundreds in minutes."

Chu Jiaojiao sidled up, grinning, "Ji You, why not make one for me?"

Ji You pushed Chu Jiaojiao’s head away, "Ugly rejection. Just talking, ain’t got time." Turning, Ji You pointed at Liu Fufeng, who seemed on the verge of collapse, "And him? Until when does he intend to run?"
