The manager look at Yue Li Lian, He didn't saw that Li Lian came inside the store with Xiao Chen, so he didn't know that she came in with a rich person and still thought that Li Lian is poor.
" Miss, Can you please just let go of the clothes and give it to this lady ? " says the manager.
Although it seems as if he just wanted to resolve this by peace, he couldn't mask his arrogant attitude that look down on Li Lian
Li Lian snorts " So this is how your store works ? " ask her
" Huh? What do you mean ? " asked the manager acting all naive
Li Lian raises her eyebrow and speaks more loudly so the people at the store could hear it more clearly
" So this is how the famous Plum Store treats their customer ! A lady snatch my clothes that I was going to buy and the manager sided with the lady! "
Everyone on the store turns at the source of the voice and start murmuring
" Wow, I didn't know that this store treats customers this way! "
" Look at the girl, she was only buying her clothes, but the manager sided with the other lady just because she looks richer "
" That's awful! "
" Let's take a video and post it in the internet "
Li Lian heard the whispers while hiding her smile, everything move as she thought!
The manager's expression turns sour as he sees heard the other customer whispers. But he couldn't let Li Lian take the dress, after all, the other Luo Jang is rich and a patron of the store, so he need to please her.
" No, miss, you should now, the clothes that you are holding is very expensive." says the manager with a more higher tone.

" So are you saying that I look poor and couldn't afford to buy the clothes? " Ask Li Lian with a pitiful voice
Everyone on the store starts to side with Li lian
Luo Jang couldn't help but feel provoked by her words, and she chimed in
" Well you are not wrong, you are poor and you don't fit here." Her voice was full of arrogance as if she is the richest woman on the whole planet.
The more the other customer hear the manager and the lady words, they felt more disgusted with them and continues to side with Li Lian
" So if I have to look rich first before I could buy the dress? " ask Li Lian
" Even if you look rich you are still poor and couldn't afford it anyway ! " she snorts
" Miss you have not bought the clothes, so this lady could still take it . " answers the manager while backing the other Luo Jang.
" I have not bought it? Then, she also haven't, right? " ask Li Lian
The manager raises his brow when he heard Li Lian
Li Lian just walk past them and took the clothes away from the woman hand, she walks to the cashier
" Can You check this now? " Li Lian ask the girl at the cashier
The girl look at the manager waiting for a response. The manager just wave away, because he thought that Li Lian would not be able to afford it and would just embarrass herself anyway.
The girl scanned the price " 20.000 RMB" Says the girl with a weak voice, she saw Li Lian from the start and she knew that she is not wrong, but the price is too expensive for normal person, so she felt pity on Li Lian

But, unexpectedly, Li Lian pull a black card from her bag
" Can you use this? " says Li lian
The cashier girl shriek when she held the card. The black card can only be used by a few numbers of people and only extremely rich people can use this card.
The manager's and the Luo Jang's face turn paler when they see the card.
" Check if it's fake ! " says Luo Jang, she still tries to hide her nervous expression and still mock Li Lian
The manager went to the cashier and took the card he look at it for quite a long time before he swipe the black card to the machine
He speaks in a meeker voice and says: " It's real ."

NOVA INTERIT.US
It's 2063, and the town along with much of the nation are in disarray. The decay started years before the Great Event. Our town still had hope thanks to the five families, who'd created a blockchain based water distribution system for the locals, a valuable secret hidden from the Global Water Commission and their network of mercenaries. Earlier in the mid-2040's, right after the state secessions of Idaho, Montana, and Texas, the Global Council of Water Commissioners made their deals and moved into towns throughout the country. They called it "the integration." The Commission and their contractors integrated with municipal water departments, using their organized network to invade like parasites on local services. It all coincided with the 29th Amendment to the United States Constitution, later referred to as the Regional Trident Plan. Nova is a story about survival, power structures, the turning of relationships, and the networking between people and the systems to which they belong. It’s about A.I. blockchain possibility, and its potential for human betterment versus our detriment. It’s about the question of whether or not we need to be saved from ourselves, and by who or what? The Great Event at the end of the first chapter might just be what actually saves us. The epilogue will take place in 2517. This scene is fully sketched and the full arc of the novel is set. I expect to finish Nova Interitus by summer of 2023. This is realist hard-sci-fi dystopian fiction. I hope you find Nova to be a challenging and consuming story. This is not something I planned to write. It all came to me in a dream and I haven't been able to stop writing it. This Royal Road posting is basically a beta test with chapters and drafts to get some feedback and see if there's any readership for this narrative. For the full experience read Nova on Substack. I will be narrating a podcast version later this year there. https://novainteritus.substack.com/
