Ding… Product meeting requirements detected. This time, it's a niche brand's 2009 extended top-tier edition Phaeton!

90% restored: ¥80,000. 85% restored: ¥65,000!

Upgrade to 2010 top-trim Phaeton: ¥180,000!

The upgraded Renovation System had undergone a complete overhaul, now capable of accurately detecting detailed product information. The two prompts below were selectable options, with "Renovate" and "Cancel" buttons at the bottom.

With a sharp mind and quick thinking, Xu Duo cleverly bypassed the second option. She didn't pick the 90% or 85% restoration options—instead, she decisively clicked on "Upgrade to 2010 top-trim."

"As expected, the Renovation System isn't easily tricked—there's no loophole to exploit." Xu Duo shook her head slightly with a bitter smile. Although she had anticipated this, she still tried it. Sure enough, the "Renovate" button remained grayed out and unclickable. "Looks like I have to restore it first before I can upgrade."

Fine then—go with the 90% restoration! No need to hesitate. After restoring, she could upgrade it to the 2010 top-trim version.

Ding… Total cost for this operation: ¥260,000. Please recharge!

"Recharge!" Xu Duo didn't hesitate at all. Spending ¥260,000 to get the newest and highest-spec version of a niche brand's Phaeton—what a bargain! The official MSRP of the top-trim model was a whopping ¥1.26 million. "Renovate!"

Ding… Do you wish to forcibly modify vehicle information?

Faced with this new feature, Xu Duo was intrigued. No matter what, she had to try it—how else could she understand how it worked? She decisively selected "Forcibly Modify Information."

Ding… Vehicle information forcibly overwritten!

Special Notice: Host is now registered as the second legal owner of this vehicle. Please rest assured—all documentation, including ownership transfer, has been forcibly revised and can be verified with the authorities!

Incredible! Absolutely unbelievable! From purchase to registration and licensing, each step in owning a car is tightly interlinked, and ownership transfers are notoriously tedious. Yet Xu Duo hadn't completed any formal transfer at all—this vehicle had practically been conjured out of thin air by the Renovation System. And now it could forge all the necessary information, even overwrite records in government databases. The power of this system was downright godlike.

But that was a good thing—no troublesome loose ends to worry about. As for traces being left behind, Xu Duo had absolute faith in the Renovation System. It would surely wipe everything clean.

Ding… Host, please watch for delivery updates from the vehicle administration. License plates have already been synchronized with the revised vehicle data!

"…Whoa." Xu Duo's eyes widened in astonishment, though she quickly composed herself. "Well, obviously. Since the information has already been forcibly changed, there's no way a flaw would be left at something as basic as license plates."

Everything was settled! Now it was just a matter of waiting for the plates to arrive. She had paid nothing for the car, received ¥1 million in compensation, and spent ¥260,000 to get a new top-trim niche Phaeton. With a listed price of ¥1.26 million, the real cost after taxes and fees could easily approach ¥1.5 million.

As for why the flood-damaged vehicle met the Renovation System's requirements, it made sense when she thought about it—the minimum threshold was 30% damage. Being waterlogged had severely impacted even the core components like the engine, which probably qualified it as 30% depreciated.

"I've found another way to make money now—just find cars that are nearly scrapped and restore them. The profit margins must be insane." Xu Duo was already planning long-term, but soon she frowned. "The only problem is, I don't have any channels to offload the vehicles yet."

"Well, one step at a time. There's less than half a month left until the New Year. Considering prep time, I only have about seven days to get things done. I'd better seize the opportunity now and then head back home for the holidays."

When Xu Duo thought about her hometown, her thoughts drifted far away.

Having lived two lifetimes, it felt like ages since she'd returned. In reality, after dropping out and coming to Huashenbei, she'd only been back once in the past few years.

They always said, "Whether rich or poor, go home for New Year's," but that didn't apply to someone like her—at least not before. She hadn't made any money and hadn't made a name for herself, so she didn't dare go back.

But now things were different! After being reborn and gaining the Renovation System, she had earned a fortune in less than ten years—more than many could make in a dozen lifetimes.

"It's time to go back. I should go back!" Xu Duo murmured to herself, her tone resolute. "I guess… this counts as returning home in glory, huh?"

She rubbed her forehead. Last night, she'd joined He Dong for dinner, then hit a second round afterward, drinking quite a bit. As soon as she woke up, she skipped washing up and immediately checked the Renovation System, diving straight into upgrading the niche Phaeton.

Only now did she feel the lingering headache—the aftereffects of a hangover.

After freshening up, she was back behind the wheel of her trusty Wuling, speeding toward the electronics market. She'd clear out another batch of goods before the New Year. After that, she'd wait for the holiday rush to pass. Of course, if another opportunity arose, she definitely wouldn't let it slip by.

And as fate would have it—just as she stepped into Feiyang Electronics Plaza, business came looking for her on its own.
