The wealth system was somewhat perverse; it did nothing but make money every second. However, if one wanted to gain truly enviable wealth solely through the system's passive income, the current wealth level was far too low. Therefore, Ye Chen had been constantly thinking about improving his wealth level. If he spent more than 20 billion yuan to buy the entire community, he would gain a wealth value of more than 20 billion yuan. How simple and how direct. In fact, this was only possible in Magic City; if he were in a second or third-tier city, it wouldn't cost nearly as much.
"By the way,"
Ye Chen remembered,
"last night's wealth level upgrade rewarded me with a wealth gift package..."
"I almost forgot about this..."
"Use the Fortune Pack!"
"Ding! Congratulations to the host for obtaining a Constitution Potion (Silver) X1."
"Ding! Congratulations to the host for obtaining a Random Skill Card (Bronze) X1."
Potion of Constitution (Silver): After use, the host gains 5-8 points of enhancement to their constitution.
Skill Random Card (Bronze): After use, the host randomly gains an ability.
Looking at the attribute descriptions of the two prizes, Ye Chen's eyes lit up.
"Wow, this is pretty good..."
"Physical potions can strengthen the body, and the random skill card, although the skill can't be chosen independently, is still valuable..."
"Unfortunately, there's no time-travel card this time. Otherwise, I could go back to the past to buy land everywhere, or take advantage of a financial crisis to make a lot of money..."
Thinking of this, Ye Chen parked the Bugatti Veyron on the side of the road. With a thought, a crystal-shaped bottle instantly appeared in his hand. Looking at the swaying black potion within the crystal bottle, Ye Chen smacked his lips, feeling a little hesitant.
"Why is it black..."
"Forget it; it's produced by the system, so it shouldn't be harmful..."
Thinking of this, Ye Chen unscrewed the cap of the bottle, then tilted his neck and drank it down. What did it taste like? How should he put it... sour, then sweet, like a fruit drink. Before Ye Chen could taste it carefully, the crystal bottle in his hand, including the cap, instantly turned into powder and dissipated.
"Damn, so meticulous! I was just thinking about keeping the bottle to test its substance..."
As soon as Ye Chen thought of this, warm currents suddenly emerged from his stomach and then rushed towards his limbs and bones. An extremely comfortable sensation followed. At the same time, Ye Chen's skin and muscles seemed to be breathing. After a minute, all sensations disappeared, and a system prompt sounded.
"Ding! Congratulations to the host; your physique has improved by +8."
"It feels so comfortable; it seems my whole body is full of strength. Is this the effect of improving my physique by 8 points?"
Thinking of this, Ye Chen focused his thoughts.
"Use the Skill Random Card (Bronze)!"
"Ding! Congratulations to the host for acquiring the skill: Eye of Truth (Bronze)."
Eye of Truth (Bronze): Can see through falsehoods and restore the origin of all things.
Remarks: Can be advanced. Currently, you can ignore disguises, masks, fog, and low-level illusions.
"Eye of Truth? This skill seems... somewhat useless..."
"No, that's not right. With this, I can even drive in fog..."
"Wait, ignoring disguises, ignoring masks... does that mean other people's makeup or plastic surgery will be ineffective on me? Wearing a mask will be the same..."
"Wow, this skill is a bit interesting. At least when I look at women in the future, I don't have to worry about their makeup being too heavy, preventing me from seeing their real appearance. And by the way, plastic surgery won't escape my eyes either..."

Looking at the data on the attribute panel, Ye Chen was stunned.
"Holy crap! Wasn't it just improving my physique? How did my strength, spirit, and disease resistance also increase?"
"Ding! There is no need for the host to doubt. The various attributes of human beings are closely related to their physique. As their physique increases, all attributes will increase accordingly."
As soon as the system prompt ended, Ye Chen raised his eyebrows.
"What is the average value for each attribute of human beings?"
"Ding! The average for adult males is 10 for each attribute."
"Tsk tsk, not bad, not bad at all..."
Thinking of this, Ye Chen restarted the Bugatti Veyron and headed towards the developer Lao Liu's building.
Driving along, half an hour later, Ye Chen arrived at the location. As soon as he got out of the car, the developer Lao Liu greeted him with a smile.
"Brother Ye, you've come! I've been waiting for you for a while."
Ye Chen smiled slightly and said,
"There was some traffic on the road, so I was delayed for a bit. Brother Liu, please don't mind."
Lao Liu laughed, "How could I? Please, come inside."
Ye Chen nodded and then followed Lao Liu towards the sales department.
When they came to the conference room, after a few simple pleasantries, they got straight to the point. The contract was provided by Ye Chen's side, and Lao Liu had no objections, though his lawyer checked the contract carefully. The lawyer on Ye Chen's side, in turn, meticulously checked the information provided by Lao Liu, one item at a time. Sometimes he made a phone call; other times, he just sent someone out to verify details. This busy work of verification continued until noon. Ye Chen signed, and Lao Liu also signed. Then, Ye Chen and Lao Liu went to the bank to transfer the funds. This process took more than another hour. If Ye Chen and Lao Liu hadn't been such major clients, the bank wouldn't have dedicated a conference room specifically to provide services for them. In the end, Lao Liu's real estate was sold to Ye Chen for 20.697 billion yuan.
The moment Ye Chen's transfer was successful, a series of system prompts sounded one after another:
"Ding! Congratulations to the host for consuming 100 million wealth points, raising the wealth level to LV3, now earning 3 yuan per second."
"Ding! Congratulations to the host for consuming 300 million wealth points, raising the wealth level to LV4, now earning 4 yuan per second."
"Ding! Congratulations to the host for consuming 600 million wealth points, raising the wealth level to LV5, now earning 5 yuan per second."
"Ding! Congratulations to the host for consuming 1.7 billion wealth value, raising the wealth level to LV6, now earning 6 yuan per second."
"Ding! Congratulations to the host for consuming 3 billion wealth points, raising the wealth level to LV7, now earning 7 yuan per second."
"Ding! Congratulations to the host for consuming 4 billion wealth points, raising the wealth level to LV8, now earning 8 yuan per second."
"Ding! Congratulations to the host for consuming 5 billion wealth points, raising the wealth level to LV9, now earning 9 yuan per second."

Looking at the wealth value on the attribute panel, Ye Chen raised his eyebrows.
"There's still nearly 70 million worth of wealth value needed to reach level 10..."
"Today, let's aim for level 10!"
