Chapter 151 Selling
The tiny rice bowl transformed from a mini size into a large bowl as soon as it was taken out of the box.
The treasure-hunting mouse also squeezed out of the box, squeaking...
He gestured wildly, but I couldn't understand what he meant.
"what?"
Shu Ran filled its food bowl, but not understanding the mouse's language, she thought it was starving and quickly pushed the food bowl away.
"Eat it!"
It wasn't the super fragrant one, but it tasted pretty good too. I leaned over and sniffed it, and seeing that the two of them really didn't understand what it meant, I had no choice but to give in and start eating it right there in the rice bowl.
The food, enough for two or three treasure-hunting mice, was completely devoured in less than ten minutes, leaving not a single crumb.
Looks like I'm really hungry!
The treasure-hunting mouse looks similar to a hamster, but it's not the kind of big, gray rat with a long tail; it's small and really cute.
Shu Ran reached out and touched the fur she had been eyeing for so long; it was indeed as soft and silky as she had guessed.
Is that enough? Would you like some more?
This tiny mouse has quite an appetite.
Shu Ran was extremely pleased after watching a very enjoyable live stream of a treasure-hunting rat eating.
"Squeak."
The treasure-hunting mouse shook its head, pushed away its food plate, looked around the room with a hint of disdain, turned around and went back to its nest, closing the door behind it.
A bed without shavings of Spirit Gathering Wood is not a good bedroom!
Ok?
That little head of yours is quite clever!
The airship traveled for three days before finally reaching its destination.
After disembarking from the airship, I followed the navigation and walked along the streets of Pingyue City, which was bustling with people and more prosperous than Yaoguang City.
"Jin Family Pet Shop!"
Shu Ran stopped, holding the treasure-hunting rat in the small box, who was sleeping soundly, unaware that her Book of Destiny was about to be opened.
As the ancestor of the family, the treasure-hunting rat who has cultivated into a god, the little treasure-hunting rat is not worried about its future, as its ancestors have already arranged everything.
It's a mutually beneficial arrangement. After experiencing life in the human world, they can easily cultivate themselves into human form upon their return.
Stepping into the shop, I saw all sorts of spirit pets in cages of various sizes—furry, hairless, oviparous, viviparous…
The environment looked very cramped. Shu Ran frowned slightly, and her hand holding the suitcase tightened unconsciously.
Although they hadn't spent much time together, the treasure-hunting rat had been very well-behaved throughout the journey, even lying down and letting people pet it. Shu Ran really didn't want to hastily abandon the treasure-hunting rat at the Jin family's pet shop.
It wasn't specified how the treasure-hunting rat would be delivered to the Jin family's pet shop. Rather than selling it to the pet shop, Shu Ran preferred to secretly release the rat at its destination.
Once the mission is complete, the treasure-hunting mouse can choose its own path in life.
It's better than being locked in a cage and left to be chosen by others.
He opened the door of the small box: "Little one, you can go now, we've arrived!"
Shocked, the mouse instinctively took a step back and plopped down on the bed carved from a large piece of spirit-gathering wood: Ancestor, someone wants to steal the mouse's little house!
The two, one human and one mouse, were thinking completely differently.
After the treasure-hunting mouse understood Shu Ran's meaning, it still refused to come out. Shu Ran had no choice but to talk to the shop owner and put the treasure-hunting mouse on consignment.
The treasure-hunting mouse was determined; its destiny was right there, and it was much safer inside the little box than outside.
But he also felt Shu Ran's kindness and sent her a treasure-hunting rat as a blessing.
It's very subtle, but it can help Shu Ran subconsciously lean towards the best outcome when faced with choices.
It was just a very subtle boost to her intuition; how she used it was up to Shu Ran herself.
At this moment, Shu Ran had no choice but to consign the stubborn treasure-hunting rat to a private platform. She even spent some spirit stones to give the rat VIC treatment, with each rat having its own small platform and no spirit pet cages around it.
"Hey, it's you, Hotpot Sister!"
What an outrageous name!
Just as he finished negotiating with the boss and was about to pay with spirit stones, he heard a familiar voice.
Looking back, there was that round-faced girl who had spent all her savings on a hot pot recipe!
"You also came by flying boat?"
What a fate!
Shu Ran looked curiously at the round-faced girl and the young man beside her. He was handsome and had a sharp temperament, following closely behind the round-faced girl.
“Yes, my dad and I just got off the airship not long ago. If nothing unexpected happens, we should be on the same one.”
"You, your father?"
I knew that cultivators looked young, but I didn't expect them to look so young. They don't look like father and daughter at all.
"Yes, yes, my dad, Dad, this is the very generous friend I told you about."
The young man nodded slightly: "Thank you for taking care of my daughter, fellow Daoist!"
Shu Ran: No, no, no, your daughter is the generous one.
Suddenly I felt guilty, like I was about to be confronted by the parents of someone who sold something at a high price!
"No, no, it's just a matter of mutual benefit!"
"Hey, where are your partner and child? I haven't seen them."
“My partner took the children out for a walk, and I still have some things to take care of here.”
Having been confined to the flying boat room for three days without going out much, An'an was already unhappy. As soon as they got off the flying boat, she started making a fuss about not wanting to enter any enclosed room with a roof.
She started crying as soon as she entered the shop. There was nothing we could do but let Yunxi take An'an out for a stroll first, while Shuran would finish dealing with things here before going to find them.
"Oh, I see. Hey, is this the little mouse you wanted to buy? It's so cute!"
Her intense affection almost overflowed from her eyes, as if guided by fate, making the round-faced girl want to buy it. However, a gentleman does not covet what he likes, so the round-faced girl restrained herself and looked away.
"No, it's for consignment."
The round-faced girl's eyes lit up: "Can I buy it? Don't worry, I'll treat it well."
Shu Ran turned to look at the treasure-hunting rat on the table, which was lazily curled up in a ball, lying on the debris, completely ignoring the discussions around it, as if it wasn't the subject of the discussion.
"That depends on whether it wants to or not!"
The boss is unhappy. If he cuts out the middleman, how will he make money?
After speaking, he looked at his boss, whose expression was not very good.
"Boss, how about this? No matter the outcome, the agreed-upon 100 spirit stones will remain unchanged."
"Alright, since you put it that way, I agree!"
Since Shu Ran said that, the boss felt embarrassed to argue and readily agreed.
Watching the two talk eagerly, as soon as it was given permission, it darted over to the treasure-hunting rat's little box.
They muttered to themselves for a long time, but it was unclear what they said.
Finally, the little treasure-hunting mouse stood up, opened the cage by itself, stretched out its little paw, and touched one of the fingers of the big, round-faced girl outside.
"Ahhh, sister, it said yes!"
"Yes, congratulations, it's yours!"
"I want to sign a life-bound contract with it!"
