Chapter 28: Pet Rental, Garbage Forest Wolf?
Chapter 28: Pet Rental, Garbage Forest Wolf?
Cloud Heaven Pet Beast Battle Resort.
I have to say, compared to his own place, the neighbor's renovations here are truly impressive.
There's even a dedicated road with shuttle buses coming and going, providing excellent service.
No wonder they've been trying to buy this place.
The construction costs must have been substantial.
However, it was clear that Su Ping wasn't in the mood to appreciate the view outside.
He yawned.
Guan Manager, sitting across from him at the coffee table, smiled and said, "Xiao Ping, did you not sleep well last night?"
The slightly bluish circles under Su Ping's eyes made it clear that he didn't need to ask.
It wasn't because of Li Shu or his classmates' impending arrival that he couldn't sleep well.
After all, he had just completed his first successful breeding and earned a substantial amount of money. He meditated for half the night, not wanting to waste the effects of the Spirit Infused Ancient Tea.
Then, he spent the rest of the night selecting Toxic Lineage resources for Xiao Qing and purchasing Wood Core Potion resources, only finishing as the sky began to brighten.
In the end, his realm slightly improved, but he didn't advance to the next level. Out of the 4 million he earned, only a few tens of thousands were left.
However, thinking about the resources he was about to receive, Su Ping's expression changed.
In addition to the twenty portions of Wood Core Potion resources, he also bought four Toxic Lineage resources:
Heartrending Fruit, Wolf Poison Aconite, Crimson Lady Cactus Flower, and Devil Willow Leaf.
These four are all herbal Toxic Lineage resources, and Devil Willow Leaf is an Elite Rank Toxic Lineage resource.
Xiao Qing's Poisoned Heartwood had already been confirmed to grow by consuming Toxic Lineage resources.
Su Ping, of course, wouldn't be stingy with his soul-contracted companion beast.
Guan Manager noticed Su Ping's current state and didn't waste any more words. Instead, he took out a contract and handed it to Su Ping: "Xiao Ping, take a look. We at Cloud Heaven are truly sincere! For your Forest Wolves, we guarantee a minimum of 500 yuan per day for each ordinary-ranked beast, and the same price for each battle! For elite-ranked beasts, it's 1,200 yuan per day, and the same price for battles.
Additionally, you'll have free access to professional rehabilitation and treatment facilities, as well as accident insurance. You can rest assured!"
Su Ping nodded and carefully reviewed the contract from start to finish before nodding again:
"No problem, Uncle Guan. I just have one condition: I can terminate the lease at any time because sometimes I'll be busy..."
"No problem, no problem!"
Guan Manager smiled and waved his hand dismissively. This pet rental was just a pretext; the real goal was to get Su Ping to come to their side more often and build a closer relationship.
So, Guan Manager coughed and said:
"Xiao Ping, you've seen that I, Uncle Guan, am truly sincere. Now, regarding the situation with Heart of Wood, I have some understanding.
As the basic companion beast of Linzhou City, there are many Forest Wolf breeding bases. Your father has never paid attention to this aspect, but I know about the Heart of Wood business.
As the young master of such a large breeding base, I imagine you're not having an easy time. We at Cloud Heaven are truly sincere! What do you think of this offer?"
Without waiting for Su Ping's response, Guan Manager handed him a slip of paper.
The string of zeros on it was indeed a very sincere offer.
However, Su Ping shook his head helplessly:
"Uncle Guan, this land was left to me by my grandfather. You know my father; he's a bit eccentric, but he takes this matter very seriously. If I dare to do something like this behind his back, he'll break my legs. And I don't need the money right now."
"Don't worry, when your dad comes back, I'll talk to him. That should be enough, right?"
"Manager Guan, please don't push him too hard..." Su Ping quickly stood up and led Guan Manager out of the main building.
They arrived at an empty space in the courtyard, where a figure stood with a dark expression, holding a rope. Surrounding him were seventeen Forest Wolves.
Qin Xiaoxue finally breathed a sigh of relief as she saw Su Ping, who had arrived late.
From a young age, she had never done something like this.
Only this stinky brat would dare to treat her, the esteemed Miss Qin, like a servant.
Many people were staring at her with bewildered looks.
How embarrassing!
However, despite being surrounded by these wolves and attracting the attention of curious customers, Qin Xiaoxue couldn't help but feel impressed.
Among the seventeen Forest Wolves, besides the sixteen that Su Ping intended to rent out, one of them was her Woodhead.
After just one night, although Woodhead's self-healing skill hadn't improved, the feedback from their soul connection clearly indicated significant progress.
This stinky brat truly had some talent!
Qin Xiaoxue's gaze shifted slightly towards Su Ping.
Although she was straightforward and hot-tempered, she wasn't foolish.
If the Cloud Heaven Resort had the backing of the Sky Cloud Corporation, it would be terrifying.
With the support of the Sky Cloud Corporation, and even the personal involvement of their chairman, it seemed unlikely that they would be here just to rent a dozen or so Forest Wolves.
That was simply impossible.
Qin Xiaoxue recalled their conversation from the other day and felt it necessary to remind Su Ping later not to be taken advantage of.
As expected, the situation unfolded as she anticipated. Guan Manager casually glanced at the wolves and nodded, then said with a smile, "Go ahead and take these little guys to the training arena. We'll see if any Beastmasters choose them. I'll personally transfer the money to you later tonight. But think carefully about that matter, if not for anything else, then for your own future."
Guan Manager turned and left, and Su Ping waved his hand, leading the seventeen Forest Wolves, including Woodhead, and the disgruntled Qin Xiaoxue towards the training arena behind them.
Qin Xiaoxue watched as the guy in front of her showed no intention of helping, and her anger grew. This stinky brat was really treating her like a servant!
However, before she could say anything, a voice called out from a short distance away:
"Isn't that Su Ping? I was just thinking of going to see Su Dasha later, but I didn't expect to run into him like this. What a coincidence!"
Su Ping frowned as a group of people approached from a distance, stepping off a large bus.
The speaker was none other than the class president of Class 2, Zhou Shuchen, whom he hadn't seen in over a month.
Although he didn't particularly like this guy, he didn't hate him either.
Su Ping ignored him and quickly spotted Li Shu waving at him in the crowd.
He had heard that this guy was coming today, but he didn't expect him to arrive so early.
Just then, Zhou Shuchen's next words caused Su Ping to pause:
"I heard everything just now. When did Su Dasha become so down and out? Has it come to the point where he has to rent out these trash Forest Wolves to make a little money?"
