Chapter 16: Chapter 16 Money comes into the bag
Andre looked up and saw an old man in a Tang suit entering the store, followed by a half-human-high strange bird.
The bird's feathers were fiery red, and it looked like an ostrich, but its head was drooping at the moment, and it looked listless, as if shrouded in a layer of haze.
The moment Andre saw the bird, his heart suddenly moved, as if he had some mysterious feeling.
"Boss, do you have any unique bird and animal pet food? I want to find something with a rich fragrance and unique style." Sanchez saw the young Andre behind the counter and stepped forward to ask politely.
"Fragrant pet food?" Andre looked surprised, his eyes lingered on the depressed look of the bird and beast for a while, and then he said with relief: "Has it lost its appetite recently?"
Sanchez nodded slightly, and said with a little distress: "Since a few days ago, it suddenly lost interest in food. I don't know why. I took it to see the doctor, but he didn't diagnose any clues."
Andre expressed his understanding, turned around and took out a bottle of "Yanzhu Fruit" from the counter full of rare treasures behind him, and said calmly: "This fruit may please it."
"Oh?" Seeing Andre's confidence, Sanchez picked up the Yanzhu Fruit curiously and looked at it carefully, then stared and said: "What kind of pet food is this? I don't seem to have heard of it."
Andre also knew in his heart that it was difficult to explain such things from the system transmission and cultivation plane. After all, he had no idea whether it was a delicacy from the past or still existing today. Maybe it was a mysterious fruit lost in ancient times.
However, he had no doubt about the judgment of the system.
"You can let it try it." Andre said calmly.
Sanchez has been studying bird and animal pet food, but he couldn't recognize what it was. But considering that Andre's place is a regular pet store, and the store is decorated in a very stylish way, it should not sell inferior products that are harmful to birds and animals, so he resolutely unscrewed the bottle cap and gently poured out two pills.
At the moment when the bottle cap was opened, the firebird, which was originally dejected and seemed to be abandoned by the world, suddenly had its feathers on its head tremble slightly, as if a mysterious power was injected. Then it slowly raised its head, and its eyes, which were originally dull, depressed and lazy, suddenly flashed with bright light, like the brightest stars in the night sky, staring closely at the two red rock fruits in Sanchez's hand, with a look full of burning desire and eagerness.
"Hmm?" Seeing the strange reaction of the pet, Sanchez couldn't help but be stunned, but he also had a little more expectation and confidence in his heart. He slowly lowered his hand and carefully put the two fruits to its mouth.
Seeing this, the firebird pecked at the two fruits in a flash, swallowing them into its stomach in an instant. As soon as it swallowed, it made a cheerful and joyful cry, and the sound was like a lively note jumping in the air, and its short wings also fluttered excitedly, as if celebrating a grand festival. Then, its fiery eyes turned to the whole bottle of fruit on the counter, and the desire in its eyes was like a blazing flame, as if it wanted to devour everything.
Sanchez was stunned, full of surprise and confusion. This little guy has lost his appetite for many days, but now he is eating so happily, as if he will never be satisfied.
Seeing the effect, Sanchez did not hesitate and immediately said to Andre respectfully: "Boss, what kind of food is this? Give me a few bottles first."
Andre saw that the firebird was salivating, as if he was about to pounce on it and snatch it. He calmly held the bottle, gently moved it in front of him, and said slowly: "This is the rock vermilion fruit, which is the favorite food of the red vermilion bird. There is only this bottle left in the store. One pill costs 130. There are 34 pills in the bottle. Do you want to buy them all?"
"Oh, 130 per bottle..." Sanchez thought for a while and thought the price was reasonable at first, but he was stunned the next moment, "One pill?"
Andre looked calm and nodded firmly, "One pill!"
Sanchez was stunned for a moment, and looked into Andre's eyes. Seeing that Andre's eyes were serious and steady, without any joking, he was sure that he had not heard wrongly.
At this time, he also glimpsed other products behind Andre's counter from the corner of his eyes. When he saw their staggering prices, he couldn't help but be slightly surprised. He didn't expect that this was not the only expensive item, and there were many other items that were more expensive than the sky.
It seems that Andre did not raise the price temporarily to deliberately cheat him.
"What is so special about these pet foods of yours?" Sanchez quickly regained his composure and asked with a curious light in his eyes.
Seeing the other party's calmness, Andre also had some admiration in his heart, and answered truthfully: "These pet foods have different effects, but most of them can help pets improve their strength to a certain extent, just like magical potions. Some also have other rare benefits, which are not comparable to ordinary pet foods, and can be said to be worth the money."
"Help improve strength?" Sanchez was very interested, as if he had heard about the news of treasure, pointing to the most expensive "Seven-Colored Buddha Heart Leaf" inside, and said: "This is priced at 20,000. What is the extraordinary use of this thing?"
"This leaf can improve the understanding of pets, making them like a fish in water on the road of cultivation, like a mysterious key to open the door of wisdom." Andre told the story.
"Improve understanding?" Sanchez was stunned for a moment, his eyes flickered slightly, as if he was weighing the pros and cons, and then he retracted his thoughts and said to Andre politely: "This Yanzhu fruit, give me ten first, if the effect is good, I will buy more."
Andre was also a little surprised when he heard it, thinking to himself: Have you placed an order? So... Is it possible to make a profit?
As if he saw the energy point waving to him enthusiastically, Andre's heart was filled with ripples, but he remained calm on the surface, like a deep lake without waves. He quickly calculated in his mind and said, "The price of ten pills is 1300. Your red bird just ate two pills, which is 260, a total of 1560."
Sanchez nodded slightly, transferred the money to Andre gracefully, and then asked politely, "How long can these ten pills last for it?"
Andre thought for a moment and said clearly, "If you let it eat as much as it wants... I'm afraid one meal may not be enough, but if you want to save some, you can cleverly mix this rock red fruit into other pet food, so that it can be fed for ten meals."
"Uh..." Sanchez didn't think the price was high at first, but now he heard Andre's words and suddenly felt that the cost was not cheap. Although his family was well-off and not short of money, a meal cost 1500...
"Thank you, boss." Sanchez said politely, turned around and slowly left the pet store. Before leaving, he seemed to be pulled by some mysterious force and looked back at the store sign - Little Naughty. The sign exuded a unique atmosphere under the sunlight.
"..."
After seeing off the guests, Andre couldn't wait to check his account and saw that 1560 had been newly credited! After conversion, this was 156 energy! And the task of breeding pets he undertook only required 10 energy points to hatch a pet. In other words, at this moment he had enough ability to complete the task, as if he saw the dawn of hope in the darkness.
"Fortunately, the breeding plane selected this time is not a barren land. If I had chosen a ruined world with no pets and plants, it would have been a bad start..." Andre secretly rejoiced in his heart, as if he had escaped a terrible doom.
...
...
Blue Bay Garden.
A seemingly ordinary community, the buildings inside are slightly old, the traces of time are deeply engraved on them, and there is a simple and peaceful atmosphere.
Sanchez put his hands behind his back elegantly, in a good mood, like an aristocrat strolling in spring, leading the red bird to stroll back to the community leisurely. Along the way, he met some old acquaintances, some with majestic pets, and some with their spouses, strolling in the community park, enjoying this quiet time.
"Old De, you are out walking that silly bird again." An old friend joked with a smile.
"You are walking your spouse..." Sanchez responded humorously.
"Bah, you are walking your spouse!" The old friend pretended to be angry.
"Old De is still so humorous, walk, walk..." The two laughed and joked for a few words, and then left together.
After joking with his old acquaintance, Sanchez smiled and led the red bird back to his small building. He took out the exquisite key and gently opened the door.
He went inside and came to the elevator, and took the elevator to the sixth floor. He lived in 601, and behind that door was his warm little home.
As soon as he opened the door, Sanchez keenly noticed that someone seemed to have been in the house. The most obvious sign was that the few pairs of smelly socks he left at the door disappeared strangely, as if they were quietly stolen by a mysterious thief.
Is there a thief? A trace of doubt flashed through Sanchez's mind, but he did not panic, but was unusually calm, like a knight who had been on the battlefield for a long time facing a challenge. After changing into soft slippers at the entrance, he turned around and walked steadily into the living room, and immediately saw two figures sitting in the living room. At this time, the kitchen was still wafting with the tempting aroma of cooking, as if telling the warmth of home.
"Grandfather, you're back." Two young figures on the sofa stood up quickly, their eyes full of respect and joy.
One of the girls was lively and agile, like a jumping elf in spring. Seeing Sanchez, her eyes lit up instantly, and she ran over with cheers, "Grandfather, we've been waiting for you for a long time."
Sanchez smiled and gently stroked the girl's head lovingly, "Why do you have time to come today?"
"I miss you, grandpa." The girl said coquettishly, her voice as sweet as honey.
"Hey, you're the sweetest." Sanchez gently scratched her nose, his movements gentle and doting.
The young man standing honestly on the sofa smiled innocently, like a loyal servant, and said, "Grandfather, last time you mentioned that your red bird had a poor appetite recently. I asked someone in the team to buy some of the most favorite foods of fire birds and beasts, and I came to deliver them to you today."
