I Owe Twenty Million, So I Put a Star Destroyer Up for Sale at My Toy Shop

My name is Su Che. My family's business went bankrupt, leaving me twenty million in debt and about to become a “runaway debtor.”

My fiancee called off the engagement, creditors were at my door, and my competitors were waiting to buy the land under my toy factory at a bargain price.

Desperate to escape reality, I spent my last five hundred yuan on the starter pack of a hardcore management mobile game called Galactic Arms Factory.

From ion engines to phase radar… I was hooked. I just wanted to be a starship factory manager in the game.

My creditors called me a slacker, and my ex mocked me for wasting my life on toys.

I didn't argue. If I could, I'd pay them back too…

To make ends meet, I tried turning the game's “Newbie Spaceship Engine” into a physical model and put it up in my online store.

“Star Explorer Toy Engine. It can't fly beyond the atmosphere, but it can shoot blue flames just fine.”

…

At the Pentagon, Eagle Sauce's defense secretary stares at three layers of blast-resistant armor burned through by a so-called “toy,” lost in thought.

“You call this a toy? What kind of toy has a core temperature of twenty thousand degrees?”

…

I stare at the buyer's message in my online store and freeze.

Buyer ID: Dragon Nation Air Force Equipment Department.

Message: “Boss… if I place an additional order for one billion, can you make that ‘Antimatter Collapse Cannon’ into a collectible figure?”

The whole internet erupts. Eagle Sauce panics…

Su Che: “Um… dear customer, it really is just a figure. It can't fire… right?”
