The Tycoon System: I Have a Universal Land

Chapter 3: Chapter 3: The Universal Land



"You come from the Shang family, once a prestigious family, and your ancestors once obtained a system. However, no one has been able to obtain a system again after that! Now, your grandfather has given you the system in his dream. You should be grateful to him!"

"Grandfather will go to heaven, right?"

"Fool, heaven and hell are just concepts. The universe is a nine-dimensional space. After humans on Earth die, they will appear in other parallel spaces. Heaven and hell were terms created by some ancient people who discovered some high-level secrets of the universe and misunderstood them."

"System, what abilities do you have now? What can you do?"

"Host, I suggest that you first go and pay your respects to your grandfather. You'll have time to study the system later!"

"Oh! Right! Right! I've been so stupid! I'll go right now!"

When Shang Yunyun arrived at his grandfather's ancestral hall, the old man was already lying peacefully in his coffin, dressed in funeral clothes. Luoyuan Village was remote, so burials were done traditionally with earth burials.

When the Shang family members saw Shang Yunyun, they handed him three incense sticks, a filial piety ribbon, and other items.

Shang Yunyun kneeled on the ground, lit the incense, and placed it in the incense burner. He then knocked his head three times, so hard that his forehead bled.

"Grandfather, don't worry, the things you entrusted to me in your dream, I will definitely fulfill them! You can rest easy, I won't let you down!"

Hearing Shang Yunyun's words, his parents frowned. They were worried because Shang Quan had told Yunyun to guard that piece of saline-alkali land.

Three days later, after Shang Quan's burial, Shang Yunyun returned to the capital!

During this time, Shang Yunyun didn't communicate with the system again, and the system suggested waiting until he returned to the capital to discuss it further.

Back in the capital, Shang Yunyun didn't go to his company or contact his ex-girlfriend. He needed time to himself. Of course, the purpose of this time was twofold: to study the system and to soothe the pain of his grandfather's passing.

As for the useless company and ex-girlfriend, Shang Yunyun had realized that it wasn't worth being upset over them. There was no need to waste his time on such things!

"System, can we talk properly now? By the way, where are you?"

"I'm in your mind. Close your eyes, and gently call for the system, and you'll see the system's interface and environment."

Upon hearing the system's instructions, Shang Yunyun followed them. In an instant, the area around him turned pure white, and beneath his feet was the saline-alkali land. He looked at the land, which seemed strangely familiar!

In the sky above the saline-alkali land, a system control panel appeared. There were six functional buttons on the panel, but only one was glowing, the others were dim.

"System, where are you? I can't see you!"

"Host, you can't see me. You see the system control panel, don't you? Just consider it as me. Our system is divided into levels, and the level of the system is linked to the host's level. There are seven levels in total, and your current level is level one. That's why the system control panel only has one active function—the lottery button. As your financial experience and level increase, more functions will become available! The system's functions are only a small part, the real power lies in the land beneath your feet!"

"Saline-alkali land?"

"What saline-alkali land? This is the famous Universal Land!"

"I've never heard of it!"

"You're so ignorant! You've never seen it!"

"Okay, okay, System, continue explaining. What's the deal with this saline-alkali land... I mean, the Universal Land?"

"The reason this land is called Universal Land is because it's all-powerful!"

"Can it create money?"

"No!"

"What? It's not all-powerful then!"

"Host! Calm down! It may not be able to create money, but if you have money and plant it in the Universal Land, you can make money overnight!"

Upon hearing this, Shang Yunyun was shocked. How could this be possible?

"System! Big Brother System! You're not messing with me, right? Money has codes and anti-counterfeit measures. Every banknote is registered with a serial number at the mint. Now you're telling me this saline-alkali land... no, the Universal Land can grow RMB?"

"Hehe, if you don't believe me, try it. The reason it's called Universal Land is because it can do anything. The money you grow will be registered in the official database. This little thing won't be a problem for the system!"

"Try it? Alright! I've never heard of something so magical! I'm going to take all my money and plant it in there! Let's see if it really works!"

"All your money? Host, how much do you have?"

"Damn! I've saved up 30,000 over the past year!"

"Hmm, not bad. You've saved 30,000 in one year after graduating from college. That's an accomplishment. When you level up the system, you'll be able to transfer money directly from the backend to the Universal Land. It'll be much easier than what you're doing now!"

"Alright!" Shang Yunyun got up and went to the ATM to withdraw the 30,000. He then returned home and entered the system space with the money.

"System, how should I plant this money? Do I need to dig the land?"

"No need for all that trouble, just find a spot and place it there!"

Hearing the system's instructions, Shang Yunyun placed the three stacks of money on the Universal Land. He then looked at the glowing lottery button and asked again, "System, what can I win from this lottery?"

"Anything! There's a wide range of prizes. Maybe it's a car, maybe a house, maybe a big package of items. Of course, the big packages are random—inside there might be a few items, a company, a patent, or even a toy. What you get depends entirely on your luck!"

"Luck? Haha, ever since I got the system, my luck is off the charts! I'm going to use the lottery button right now!"
