Chapter 10 - Chapter 10: The Power That Surpasses Everything

So, an hour later, Shen Shi stared blankly at the numbers in his bank account.

324,806,456 yuan!

A full 320 million!

Even though he knew making money was easy for him now, not even Shen Shi expected it to be this easy!

Most of this past hour was spent on transfers from the payment side.

For the rest, he just needed to give commands to the AI, solving it directly, effortlessly and with no difficulty.

"So, I'm a billionaire now?" Shen Shi muttered to himself.

However, he found that he wasn't as excited as he had imagined.

Because compared to the more magical "superpower," compared to the trading market, compared to the Cosmic Battleship, having so much money didn't seem like much.

Clearly, just the day before, he was a striving young man with the lifelong goal of earning millions. Today, he had the realization that "money is just a number." This change left him unsure of what emotions to feel.

It's just—

Now he could shop to his heart's content!

"Buy the most expensive luxury car! Buy the most expensive watch! Buy the most expensive clothes! I don't care if people call me a nouveau riche! I am a nouveau riche!" Shen Shi hummed a little tune he made up while changing into clothes for going out.

He even felt like Spider-Man after being possessed by Venom, as if the whole world was playing DJ music and he was dancing as he walked.

No need to care about others' views, no need to care about anyone's opinions.

On this planet, his will was the ultimate power!

He hailed a cab and headed straight to the Rolls-Royce Experience Center in Hai City. Once in the car, Shen Shi suddenly quieted down, ignoring even the driver's few teasing comments, submerging half of his consciousness into his personal space while the other half watched the stream of traffic outside the window. The gold coins made from transforming substances rolled constantly between his fingers.

He was memorizing this moment's emotions in his own way.

This state lasted until he stood in front of the Experience Center.

The reason he came here first was that it wasn't his first visit.

He'd passed by once before.

Whether it was the exquisite decor or the vehicles seen through the glass, they gave him at that time a sense of mixed melancholy and longing.

Longing for the luxury of another world, yet frustrated by his own ordinariness.

But now.

Wearing a T-shirt worth a few hundred yuan, he walked in proudly, directly pushing open the single door, and before the sales staff could approach, he pointed to a black-painted Rolls-Royce Phantom on display in the hall.

"I'll take this car, full payment, I'm driving it away now."

The sales staff who was about to approach was stunned.

Even her expression changed.

Shen Shi didn't know what she was thinking, maybe she doubted his capability.

But it didn't matter.

He didn't have to care about the other's thoughts or the so-called car buying process.

All he needed to know was that he liked this car and wanted to drive it away immediately, as simple as that!

"Sir, thank you for your support," the saleswoman finally said as she walked over to Shen Shi, cautiously sizing him up. "But our exterior paint and interior can be customized. You still have many other options, do you need..."

"No need, I'm in a hurry," Shen Shi said, already holding out his bank card. "Just tell me if I can take it, if yes, I'll pay."

The meticulously made-up saleswoman's expression changed once again.

Especially when she saw Shen Shi's bank card, which looked no different from her own.

But then she saw Shen Shi's expression.

Calm, confident, and aloof.

Not a lunatic, just genuinely wealthy!

"If you're sure, then of course there's no problem!" The saleswoman shivered slightly, leading Shen Shi to the VIP room.

Next up was contract signing, payment, and processing formalities.

When Shen Shi really transferred 10.2 million from that ordinary card, not only did the saleswoman before him but all the employees in the Experience Center were a bit agitated.

It's not unusual for ordinary people to pretend they want to buy, asking a lot, even getting into cars. But this scenario was a first!

The wealthy are really getting more playful!

Wearing clothes worth hundreds of yuan, buying cars worth tens of millions, without even needing custom service or a car delivery ceremony, buying as casually as picking up a toy for a few yuan!

But now Shen Shi didn't care about what others thought.

His focus was just on the car that was his.

To be honest, the black paint wasn't his favorite; it was too steady; he preferred blue.

But so what?

Shen Shi was very clear; he was venting.

Venting his past ordinariness while more deeply experiencing his current extraordinariness.

This growth and change were undoubtedly rapid.

As he sat on the leather seat, touched the exquisite steering wheel, and looked up at the ceiling, he could nonchalantly say, "So this is what they call the starlight headliner, the ultimate luxury? Not that impressive."

The saleswoman standing outside the car chuckled awkwardly twice, not daring to say anything.

"How long will the formalities take?" Shen Shi asked.

"Maximum two hours," the saleswoman quickly replied.

"Then give me a temporary license plate, fill-up the tank, and I'll take it for a spin, no problem, right?" Shen Shi looked at her.

The saleswoman hesitated only for a moment before nodding quickly.

One's power comes in many forms.

Once Shen Shi demonstrated one of them, many troublesome things became not so troublesome.

Up next, he behaved just like a nouveau riche.

Driving a luxury car worth tens of millions, he went on a shopping spree.

Designer sunglasses, designer suits, luxury watches, high-end computers ...

By the end of the afternoon, his brand-new luxury car was stuffed with items, and Shen Shi, from head to toe, had transformed completely.

Most people who saw him couldn't help but be drawn to his 'aura.' Men envied him, women desired him, and service personnel treated him with courteous respect ...

He sat alone in a Western restaurant, enjoying steak and red wine, feeling the subtle attention from people around him.

Perhaps they were staring at his branded clothes and watch, or perhaps at his crude, care-free dining manner.

But, as always.

With power, Shen Shi had no need to care about others' gazes.

"No wonder they say, it's hard to be frugal after being affluent." Shen Shi said, looking at the glass of red wine, downing it like a beverage and wiping his mouth, "Buy anything you want, get anything you want, this kind of joy, feels like the whole world has become their Heaven, it's just a pity, such good days last only three more years."
