When I arrive in front of my new home, I found two guys standing at the front, waiting for me by the look of it.

"Good evening master extra. I'm a servant for young master Jie Lie. He asked me to meet you regarding something he owes. Can we meet inside to discuss it?" One of the guys affirmed their intentions. He looks young, somewhere around 17 to 18 years old, just slightly older than Jie Lie.

"Sure, as long as you do not have the intention to cause me harm, both of you can come in," I answered.

"Wait! I'm not with that guy." Another guy interjected the conversation while pointing toward the other. "I work at the market. I'm delivering the chicks you ordered."

"Wow, that was fast. Have you been here long?"

"Just arrive actually, he been here long before I arrive." The guy said. "can you sign here so I can continue my delivery?"

"Sure, let me," I replied accepting the paperwork and signing them. The receipt clearly wrote the chicks quantity delivered with a 50% discount applied for the purchases. Eva is the one that told me about the discount. Because of that, I decided to sold two-third of my fillets and spend them purchasing some chicks and their food to raise them and maybe selling some eggs or chicken meat to support my cultivation for now before I can activate my stolen orb.

"Good, come, show me the coop so I can release these chicks."

"Ohh... don't worry, I plan to just release them on my backyard before I completing their coop."

"Ahh... Its gonna be a problems. Say, did you know how big this chicken gonna be?" The delivery guy asked. He looked at me with a puzzled look and sigh. " here, look at this. Look at the chick size."

He then put down the backpack he's carrying and open it up revealing the content inside. A one-foot size simple box was taken out from the backpack, It looks like a jewelry box. The delivery guy then proceed to take out a stick and the wave it on top of the box. A small thumb size yellowy chick came out and then just popping up became bigger. Right now, the chick suddenly as big as a normal adult size chicken.

Two things I realize that instant. One, I need a bigger chicken coop and second, the stick I got from the registration is a wand. How in the world that I miss that. I need to read the books about cultivation introduction as soon as possible. I guess I need to change my mindset. I don't end up in an eastern fantasy world setting, but a mishmash of both world. That is why they called the first stage a Mana Gathering stages not Qi Gathering stages. What is wrong with me.

"I need a bigger chicken coop then. Can you put the chick back inside. I need sometimes to finish up the coop and can you deliver them to me again in three days?" I asked.

"Don't worry, the cage is just temporary. In five day, the effect will be gone and they will be thrown out of the box. So you can keep it as a service. Just make sure they got enough space because they like to run around and can get as big as a meter tall chicken. Don't worry, they are below level zero and docile creature. Here's a pamphlet of how to raise them. My boss made me create one because he thinks that you don't know anything about this type of chicken. And by the look of it, he was right." The delivery guy explained about it.

After handing the box and the pamphlet. The guy throws a cylinder-like object around two inches in size into the air. A small puff of smoke can be seen then a motorcycle with a sidecar appears in front of him. He start the engine and took out another box in the sidecar and took off after waving goodbye. Damn, another transmigrated person enjoying a massive wealth selling black technology. I never thought about creating magic to made a capsule.

"Wow...what was that magic?" I blurted to no one in particular.

"That was a capsule corp's Harleys model 13 vintage series. Damn that guy got the style. It cost 15,000 Rivs upfront payment to book it. The waiting list is insane. Man, I wish master Jie Lie buy me one of those." The servant who keeps silent during my conversation with the delivery guy interjected about his real wish responding to my question before.

"Do the capsule corp use their shrinking magic everywhere?"

"As far as I know, they only sell vehicles. So I'm gonna say no to that question." He answered. " Ahh... where're my manners. I'm Lei Peng. Master Lei Jie's servant. I came bearing some news."

"Oh...what happened to him? Is he alright?"

"He's well, Mister Extra. The engagement was canceled a few days ago. He asked me to tell you that he gains some benefits canceling the engagement and also to give you this." Lei Peng clarified on his master's current situation while handing me a small square box.

"Thanks." I accepted the gift given by Lie Jie. "What is it?"

"It's a ring, a storage ring." Lie Peng explained. "Master said, It's Mister Extras' share in helping him on settling the past."

"Did he told you what happened? How he's now?"

"Yes, he told me about it. Not everything but mostly about how Mister Extra helps him solve his cultivation problems." Lie Peng answered. "Right now, Master currently in seclusion. He's cultivation seems to be returning to the way it was, maybe even better from before. He also seems to take interest in alchemy and other subjects. I'm happy for him."

"Good...good for him. Send him my regard when he came out from his seclusion will you."

"I will Mister Extra. I will. Goodbye."

I open the ring box and saw a quarter-inch thick silver ring. If you look closely, a fractal rune design giving a minuscule blueish Cherenkov effect. That was a very specific and interesting effect. I'm gonna look into it after I start learning about Enchantments.

Bag of holdings, Inventory ring, dimensional artifact, artificial bag or many more type of enchantments that used space to hold inanimate object used a soul energy, or soul force, or ESP or any shit you can name of to labels some power that uses mind power or soul power for certain people. People who can cultivate or a cultivators automatically can use those powers. It always be there, at the back of your mind waiting just to be pointing up by other cultivators. When you notice it, it will be as you got another arm to operate, it was natural as your own body. The power is used to read pendants, information jade, using intranet, dimensional artifact and more. It is basically a go-to power to connect you with magical objects.

I push my consciousness into the ring and found out I was a very very wealthy man from this moment on. There is fifty basic low-quality mana stone in the ring, a dozen jar of basic mana gathering pills and a letter.

I take out the letter and read it.

**************************

Dear my friend Mobs Extra,

I don't know if my servant Lie Peng already told you, but I'm gonna be in inclusion for a few days to tries to breakthrough into a condensation stage. As you told me before, losing half of my mana during the mana gathering process is only a short term effect. Not a day after meeting you, my mana gathering has been restored as before, moreover, it's better than before.

Since then, my cultivation grows leaps and bounds. Two days, it took two days for me to steel my heart and cut the engagement off. My mother and other elders voice their concerns but I kinda borrow your word to convince them, my friend. "Face, what face can you eat them...." One of our elders throws up blood hearing that statement. Serve him right for being a stuck up old man trying holding on to a tradition even it means that so-called tradition killing them all.

I'm rambling. So, here as promised, your share of the spoils, a quarter of the engagement reparations. Along with the mana stone, I also send some enchantments book collections. There is a lot of it at my house and not about enchantments only too. There is a whole library to be exact, nobody even reads it, and I'm far from having time and place to read it. Its already draining the resource to take care of it. Just ask Lie Peng if you want it, I already ordered him to bring it to you if you want.

Don't be angry, I saw how you still keeping a library full of books at your house, even though it belongs to your previous occupant. Normally, other people that I know throw them out or donate it to the central library, but you keep it the same as before, there is no dust too. So that was the reason I know you love books. So giving you books is the right choice.

I don't know what will happen in the future, but know this, I will come visit again if I have the time. I hope we can have other drinks until we drunken silly. Sitting and singing under the moonlight, maybe beside your small bamboo garden, forgetting all about our problems, I hope. Goodbye, my friend.

Sincerely

Jie Lie

P/s: I'm stocking up some blue cat eyes grass. It's not used for much for cultivators or natives. Mostly used as a mosquito repellent when burn slowly creating smoky smells. Insect hate them so do cultivators because of the smells. I have in good authority that the grass can also be used as a crucial ingredient to make a smoothing skincare product. The best part, the product can be used by natives and cultivators too. So I suggest you stock up too because the product may or may not go public during this one or two month.

*************************

I run back outside as fast as I can again to catch up with Lie Peng. Fortunately, he's not far. I convey the willingness to take over the Lei family library and he can bring the books a little at a time to here for my safekeeping. I also asked Lei Peng to wait for a minute because I want to replied to his letter directly. I wrote the letter with precise and short replied. After a short introduction, I came straight to the point of why I wrote to the letter.

1. If the stock up grass can be kept longer, try to extend the product going public at least into three to six month period.

2. If the product does not have any known benefits to the cultivators, avoid contracting them to gathers the grass. It will made those cultivators suspicious and maybe they stock up too. So the scheme will fail because there is no monopoly.

3. Better to hired natives only to gathers them. Maybe create some company and hired some native people to gathers the grass discreetly. Maybe do a short term magical contract too for keeping the secret from going out.

P/s: Asked Lei Peng to bring your replied letter as soon as possible. If we being smart about this exploit, we will benefit two or three more times your initial estimate return. Remember, be smart.

I guest Lei Jie also finish activating the ring of souls. The grandpa in the ring must gives him some pointers to increase his cultivation faster. Money became an issue so they create the scheme to monopolize the ingredients to make some quick money.

The typical main character and their short term 'genius' plan. Only plot armor can make sure the monopoly hold if doing the scheme using those MC's plan. Buy a whole lot of unused common ingredients that were rare thousand years ago, and somehow, those merchants suddenly have a lot of stockpiles even though nobody used them. Then when the recipe revealed, somehow, people magically don't know where to get the ingredients even though it was quite common growing at the roadside before. As if the other cultivators cannot go outside the town to collect it since they are quite an abundance. Plot armor!

I give the letter to Lie Peng, and asked about when will his master went out. Unfortunately, he doesn't know the exact time but it is definitely tomorrow. I remind him to give the letter to his master directly and keep it in his dimensional ring. He complied with the request and promise to deliver the letter directly as soon as his master came out. I also asked if it was safe for his master to meet me face to face. unfortunately, the answers are no. According to him, his master is being tailed after easily broken the engagement without as much fuss as predicted. They were suspicious about what master Lie Jie has been doing. Do they were trick into broken up the engagement because of other reasons. If they do, they want to know about it.

Listening to the Lei Peng rambling about his master being tailed, suddenly I got a nasty idea on how to mess up Lei Jie's enemy. However, I don't want to revealed it today, maybe after Lei Jie agrees to follow my plan on his monopoly scheme to sweeten the deals. I watch Lei Peng walk toward the Hakka tower to take the train into the main island.

Lei Jie must already left the island 831 last week since his potential and talents came back. I hope that our meeting today is not being tailed by his enemy. There is nothing weird, for Lei Jie servant to come here today since he must be planning to take the Lie Jie stuff too as a cover for meeting me. I should befriend Lei Peng too because that can be a reason for us to meeting again, maybe seeing both of us eating at the public place with give a good reason to meet here again. Maybe I can sell him some of my eggs as a cover too.

I never knew messing up with the imaginary author or main character plans is so satisfying, I should do this more often. Well, cooperation or not, there are tonnes of things for me to do and that include buying some timber and renting some land for my newest chicken coop area.
