Chapter 315 - Smart Assistant
“Do you have the information?” the man asked urgently.
“Yes!” The secretary quickly placed the documents in front of the man.
The man was Lyu Qingyun, a figure of considerable standing in Eastsea. He wouldn't have been the chairman otherwise. But his eyes nearly popped out of his head when he read Su Ming's information. He couldn't believe it! Su Ming, a man barely into his twenties, had effortlessly acquired a 51% stake.
Lyu Qingyun blinked in astonishment. What did it mean for someone so young to be so formidable? It suggested that Su Ming had an extraordinary background beyond his wildest dreams. He had encountered the kind of legendary heavyweights people only hear about in stories! He was eager to get acquainted with Su Ming.
Lyu Qingyun's heart pounded as he struggled to catch his breath. The information didn't include Su Ming's phone number, but it did list his address. In the city center? Lyu Qingyun paused, puzzled. Why would he live there? No matter. The affairs of influential people were beyond his comprehension.
“Quick! Get the car ready! I need to go see him!” Lyu Qingyun commanded his secretary, trying to steady his nerves with a shaky voice.
“I've prepared everything. You can depart at any moment,” the secretary assured him.
“Good!”
Meanwhile, this same scenario was unfolding across various corporations in Eastsea, unbeknownst to Su Ming. He was still out in the fields, collecting fragments. The company shares weren't his priority. What mattered to Su Ming was the smart assistant.
He had already gathered most of the fragments, now totaling over 200. It looked like he might be able to collect them all this time. At last, he had harvested all the fragments from the five acres. Su Ming pulled the final piece from the last silk pouch.
“Ding! Congratulations, Host. You have completed the collection of the smart assistant fragments!” chimed a voice in Su Ming's head.
Su Ming was ecstatic. This was fantastic! He hurriedly tossed the final fragment into the pocket with the rest. He had previously returned to the villa to fetch a plastic bag for storing the fragments. The share certificates? He tossed them aside carelessly.
“The smart assistant is now assembling…” the voice continued.
“1%… 20%… 50%… 99%…”
“Host, congratulations on the assembly of your smart assistant being complete!”
As a golden light flashed, all the pieces in the plastic bag vanished and came together to form an object.
Su Ming examined it closely and realized it was a watch resembling a child's smartwatch.
“System, is there any way to change its appearance?”
“Apologies, Host. I'm currently unable to alter its appearance. Once your land is upgraded, it will produce advanced chips that will enable the smart assistant to upgrade. With each upgrade, the assistant's appearance will change randomly! Once it reaches a high level, it will be able to adjust its appearance autonomously!”
Su Ming was at a loss for words.
Yet, this was actually promising news for him.
The System had indicated that his land would eventually yield advanced chips, allowing for the assistant's upgrade.
Could it be possible that his land might even produce Iron Man's mechanical armor someday?
“Ding! Host, it's time to name your assistant!”
Name it?
Su Ming was instantly perplexed.
The smart assistant didn't come with a name?
What about the name Little Green?
Su Ming was deep in thought.
He didn't typically engage with the Legend of the White Snake, so why did that name come to mind?
Da Bai?
Maybe not.
Naming was never Su Ming's strong suit, a trait he inherited from his father.
The Su family tended to choose very simple names.
Despite pondering, Su Ming couldn't come up with a suitable name.
He resorted to searching on his phone.
The first name that caught his eye was Yuvyuv!
“Let's name it Yuvyuv.”
“Ding! Host, you've named your smart assistant Yuvyuv!”
Su Ming pulled the watch out of his pocket.
He blinked and called out, “Yuvyuv?”
“I am here, Master!”
The watch responded with a voice that was intelligent and female, somewhat reminiscent of popular voice assistants.
However, Yuvyuv's voice lacked the warmth of human emotion.
“What capabilities do you have?” Su Ming inquired, eager to learn more.
“I can automatically log your planting times and remind you when it's time to harvest. Upon entering the land, I will assess its condition and suggest the optimal planting strategy to enhance the quality and yield of your crops! My features are equally applicable in the breeding zone!”
Su Ming's spirits lifted at the news.
This is fantastic!
Yuvyuv truly lives up to its reputation as a smart assistant.
With Yuvyuv's help, Su Ming's life just got a whole lot easier.
This has to be the greatest gain of all.
The assistant's voice was mechanical, lacking any inflection.
Yet, Su Ming speculated that with each upgrade, the variety of crops he could grow would expand.
Once he planted a high-level chip for the upgrade, the assistant would gradually evolve into an artificial intelligence, complete with its own emotions and vocal fluctuations.
But that was a concern for another day!
For now, his priority was to tidy up the space.
Glancing at the share transfer documents scattered on the floor, Su Ming allowed himself a chuckle before picking them up.
While he was busy cleaning, a cacophony of noise erupted from outside the firmly shut door.
It was still early morning, and he had only just woken up.
In his rush to gather the fragments, Su Ming hadn't had the chance to open the door.
The sounds from outside piqued his curiosity.
What was happening?
Was there a fight at his doorstep?
City dwellers were becoming increasingly impatient.
What was the reason for their quarrel?
They could have resolved their issues amicably.
Or, if all else failed, they could turn to farming, basking in the serenity of nature—a truly delightful prospect.
Cars had filled up the entrance.
The individuals stepping out were visibly stunned, recognizing one another.
They were the chairmen of renowned companies from Eastsea City.
“Zhang, what brings you here?”
“A young man bought 51% of our company's shares. He lives right here.”
“No way! You too? Is this guy Su Ming?”
“Yes, that's him! You're telling me you're in the same boat?”
“Exactly!”
“Unbelievable! Me too!”
“Same here!”
“Me too!”
They began to converse, drawing in the surrounding crowd.
Once the details were shared, everyone was left utterly bewildered.
What in the world was happening?
How had a single young man simultaneously acquired so many companies?
And to top it off, he had secured a 51% stake in each one!
