Hayley tried thinking about her phone—and just like that, it appeared back in her hand from the inventory.Her eyes lit up. It was just as she expected!She had read plenty of novels before—this was a so-called system.Hayley quickly accepted the perk and started sucking in everything she could. She soon figured out the pricing rules. The system valued items at their original purchase price, even if they were used or disassembled.She jumped straight into moving, dismantling, and collecting everything.Ding! [Gold jewelry detected, worth 11,600 dollars. Reward: 2,030 cubic feet!]Ding! [Cup detected, worth 7.80 dollars.]Ding! [Calendar detected, worth 2 dollars.]The notifications kept coming.Ding! [Small desk detected, worth 73.80 dollars. Reward: 35 cubic feet!]Ding! [Rosewood table and chair set detected, worth 5,000 dollars. Reward: 875 cubic feet!]Ding! [Trash can detected, worth 3 dollars.]In about ten minutes, Hayley grabbed everything from shoes, hats, and clot

The next afternoon, Hayley walked out of an old office building in the city. By the time she stepped outside, her account had gained another 300 thousand.These microloan companies were worse than vampires! She sold the house to Philip's family for 400 thousand, but selling it to a loan shark only got her 300 thousand. Plus, the interest was insane.She had signed a seven-day IOU. Within a week, she would have to pay back 400 thousand to the loan company, or they'd take the house.It was a bottomless pit, a trap meant only to drain her house away.No problem. Hayley never planned to pay it back—she didn't even have a house anymore.The loan was timed perfectly. Just before the apocalypse hit, the company would come knocking on Philip's door. When that happened, the two despicable parties would get into a fight, and chaos would ensue.Both sides were tough to mess with, but nobody knew who would come out on top. Either way, the house would soon be nothing but rubble.Hayley stare

Aside from that, Hayley's latest batch of seeds had arrived.She had ordered all the usual crop seeds and saplings. Almost all vegetables could be grown directly from seeds, while things like sweet potatoes needed starter plants. The seeds were super cheap, especially the sweet potato starters. Hayley had ordered a big pile from the largest seed shop. When she asked the shop owner for some freebies, he ended up tossing in a few extra starter plants for zero charge.For fruit trees, it was best to buy already-grown saplings that were a bit older. Growing fruit trees from scratch was slow and labor-intensive. Buying a ten-year-old tree was cheap and practical. A top-quality ten-year-old apple sapling cost only about 16 dollars.Hayley bought a large batch of ten-year-old saplings all at once—apple, blueberry, crab apple, pear, raspberry, cherry, lemon, plum, Euriplan plum, walnut, chestnut, hazelnut, peach, cranberry, persimmon—three of each.This way, she could guarantee the trees

As Hayley kept walking through the mall, she suddenly caught sight of two familiar figures.A young man was walking with a heavily pregnant woman just ahead of her. Philip and his wife—the same couple Hayley had just "pranked" a little while back."Babe, calm down. Whatever you want today, just buy it. Forgive me, okay? Don't get mad… You don't want to stress the baby!""No! You've been lying to me this whole time, haven't you? Your family doesn't even own that apartment! You tricked me on purpose!""It's really ours.""Then what was all that earlier? Debt collectors at your door claiming the apartment was theirs, sending your grandma to the hospital!""I don't know what happened. I swear, my mom paid 400 thousand to buy it from Hayley. We just have to find her and transfer the deed!""Wait, didn't your mom say the apartment was a gift from Hayley, so I couldn't be on the deed? How is it suddenly bought by your family and transferable?""Uh… A-Anyway! Just know that the apartme

About an hour later, Hayley had cleared out all the luxury stores on the few floors. She didn't leave a single thing behind.Women's clothes, men's clothes, kids' clothes, sportswear, shoes, socks, bags, watches, makeup…even the big jewelry and diamond stores downstairs.The newest phones and laptops flew into her inventory.The luxury skincare she could never afford before was gone in a flash.The designer bags she had only ever looked at, the limited-edition pieces that had to be ordered, were all gone.The sparkling diamonds, giant gemstones, jade, and gold from the display cases were all hers.Her inventory quickly hit over 350,000 cubic feet.Luxury items were expensive, sure—a single bag could cost thousands—but stock was always low. Many stores only had display pieces. Customers ordering multiple items meant they had to get them from elsewhere. For ultra-luxury goods priced over 100 thousand, this mall didn't even have them. Otherwise, her inventory would have exploded in
