The other small animals also came closer, some sniffing, some pecking, and after trying a bit, they also chattered, "Yeah, yeah, what use are these inedible things?" In the animals' worldview, it was simply direct and crude.

In their worldview, anything inedible was unimportant. For example, right now, any normal person would be delighted to see so many gold coins, but they didn't feel these things were important at all. They couldn't be eaten, and they were hard as rocks; what was the point?!

Mu Tianyuan had seen plenty of gold in his life. It wasn't because his family was rich; it was mainly because he once had a girlfriend who worked at a gold store.

Whenever he picked up his girlfriend, he would see gold, silver, jewelry, copper, iron, aluminum, lead, and stainless steel in the display cases. But this was the first time he had seen so much gold, and it was about to become his.

It was already good that he didn't die of pure joy. Upon hearing the questions from the surrounding small animals, Mu Tianyuan immediately said, without caring if the small animals could understand, "This is money! A lot, lot of money!"

"Money?" The many small animals looked at each other after hearing Mu Tianyuan's words. Then, the Meowth-heroine, who held grudges, reached out her paw and poked at the gold coins in the bag, asking somewhat puzzled,

"But why is money like this? It's different from what I've seen before." Don't look down on this Meowth-heroine just because she's a stray cat. She's seen things.

She knew what money looked like, and she also recognized coins. But these things in front of her were completely different from what she had seen before.

"Naturally, it's different. These are gold coins, gold. They're much more valuable than what you've seen before," Mu Tianyuan said casually, picking up a handful of gold coins to examine them.

The Meowth-heroine pondered for a moment, not quite understanding the difference, and finally sighed, "Hey, this is really the first time I've seen money like this, Meow.

You humans are really something, you can even make so many tricks with inedible things."

"To be honest, this is also the first time I've seen money like this..." Mu Tianyuan didn't hesitate to reveal his own past.

Although Mu Tianyuan was very excited looking at so many gold coins, he fortunately remembered the important business. So, while taking off his backpack, he said to the little fox, "What are you waiting for? Hurry up and pack them. Once we're done, we'll leave."

"Yes, yes, yes! Hurry up and pack!" The little fox, who was staring at the bags of gold coins, trying to calculate how many roasted chickens they were worth, immediately nodded quickly upon hearing Mu Tianyuan's call.

Then, she started patting herself down, pulling out all sorts of things: potato chips, dried meat, candy, drinks, peanuts, sunflower seeds, nuts, a half-eaten apple, two eggs, and half a roasted chicken, and so on.

Then, the little fox tossed the things she pulled out to the side and pounced on the gold coins, quickly packing them...

Even Mu Tianyuan, whose eyes were dazzled by the gold coins, couldn't help but focus on the pile of things the little fox had tossed aside.

After carefully examining them for a long time, Mu Tianyuan's mouth twitched: "How many things do you actually carry on you? And what the hell, why is there a billiard ball?"

"I picked it up last time when I went to play billiards with you," the little fox replied, stuffing gold coins into herself by the handful without looking up.

Mu Tianyuan's mouth twitched again after hearing this: "You picked it up? I think you stole it! Why would you steal a billiard ball for no reason?! You can't even eat it!"

"Who said I stole it! I clearly picked it up under the table!" The little fox, hearing Mu Tianyuan's words, immediately turned her head, baring her teeth and glaring at him, yelling. However, the little fox's action of packing the gold coins showed no signs of slowing down...

"Alright, alright, you picked it up, okay?" Mu Tianyuan nodded helplessly, then looked at the little fox and said, "By the way, I remember when we first met, you told me your storage space could only hold half your body weight, right? If that's the case, how did you pack so much? Did you not tell me the truth, or have you gotten fat again?"

"Fat your grandma!" The little fox, who was so engrossed in packing gold coins that she wouldn't stop even when talking to Mu Tianyuan, immediately jumped up.

Then, she stopped packing gold coins and glared at Mu Tianyuan, yelling, "Don't you know if I'm fat or not, since you carry me every day?"

Calling a woman fat is absolutely a taboo. And for the little fox, who had studied the Four Books and Five Classics, understood propriety and shame, and was no different from a human except for her appearance, this was also a major taboo.

In fact, the issue of her weight even surpassed her obsession with gold coins...

"Then what's wrong with this?" Mu Tianyuan asked, twitching his mouth, pointing at the things on the side.

The little fox replied self-righteously, "They're just within my maximum carrying capacity. Is there a problem with that?"

"So you've always been operating at maximum load, carrying maximum ammunition? Are you always prepared for a famine..."

Mu Tianyuan's mouth twitched again after hearing the little fox's words. Li Junyang had never asked before, so it was only today that he learned the little fox always carried a large pile of items at the limit of her space...

"I like it, mind your own business! Hurry up and help me pack! Once we're done, we'll run!" The little fox rolled her eyes at Mu Tianyuan, then lowered her head and continued packing.

Seeing this, Mu Tianyuan reached out, picked up the little fox, and then quickly packed all the gold coins, even the bags containing them, into his backpack. Then, Mu Tianyuan slung the backpack over his shoulder and said, "Alright!"

Little Fox: "...You should've done that earlier!" Damn it, if this guy had been so quick earlier, would she have had to stuff them into her space one by one?!

"I wanted to, but what could I do when you immediately pounced on them? You don't even think about why I bought this bag!" Mu Tianyuan rolled his eyes at the little fox and replied angrily.

The little fox went silent after hearing Mu Tianyuan's words, then, looking as if nothing had happened, jumped onto Mu Tianyuan's shoulder and said, "Brothers, retreat!"

"Um, do you still want these edibles, Meow?" Just then, the Meowth-heroine suddenly asked.

Mu Tianyuan and the little fox looked over and saw several Meowth and those birds all staring intently at the food the little fox had tossed out.

They probably would have pounced on it long ago if Mu Tianyuan wasn't there.

The little fox, hearing this, arrogantly flicked her tail and said, "No, we don't. Brothers and sisters, you've worked hard for so long. These are all for you to enjoy!" Now that they were rich, what couldn't they eat?!

"That's right, it's all for everyone." Mu Tianyuan also smiled and nodded. However, Mu Tianyuan immediately added, "But you guys wait a moment, don't eat here.

Let's change locations." The small animals were originally happy to hear that the little fox had given them these things. They had no objection to Mu Tianyuan telling them to change locations to eat.

Mu Tianyuan, seeing these small animals chatter their agreement, then packed up the things the little fox had pulled out into a bag. Afterward, he started cleaning up the traces he had left behind.

After cleaning the stairs and even the doorknobs, Mu Tianyuan moved his newly acquired group of "fox friends" (a slang term for shady friends) away.

After finding a relatively secluded spot, Mu Tianyuan began to distribute rewards. Mu Tianyuan even went to the supermarket and bought a lot of items, like he was stocking up, to distribute to the small animals.

Mu Tianyuan was a meticulous person. Whether they had helped find the treasure or not, as long as they had helped, Mu Tianyuan generously treated them.

The animals didn't eat much. The birds would peck up peanuts and sunflower seeds and fly off. Cats and dogs ate a bit more, but still a limited amount.

Mu Tianyuan watched the last crow fly away contentedly with a peanut in its beak, then whispered to the little fox, "It's so cheap to get animals to help..."

"Yes, yes!" The little fox immediately nodded after hearing Mu Tianyuan's words. Look at those small animals who ran off contentedly with a few bits and pieces; they really are cheap! Then, Mu Tianyuan took out a large bag of dried fish and turned to the Meowth-heroine, whom he had specially kept, saying, "Oh, right, this is specifically for you."

"Wow!" The Meowth-heroine's eyes turned green at the sight of the dried fish in front of her. However, she then twitched her ears and said somewhat awkwardly, "But you already gave me so much earlier..."

"You were the first to agree to help me, and the first to find it. It's only right to give you more," Mu Tianyuan said with a smile, placing the dried fish in front of the Meowth-heroine. No matter what, she had made the greatest contribution. There was nothing wrong with giving her more rewards.

"Then I won't be polite, Meow!" The Meowth-heroine immediately picked up the large bag of dried fish without further politeness. However, Mu Tianyuan had given her a bit too much, and the Meowth-heroine struggled to drag the bag. Mu Tianyuan saw this and immediately said, "Where do you live? How about I take you back?"

"Good, good, come with me!" Hearing Mu Tianyuan's words, the Meowth-heroine immediately let go of the bag and happily nodded at Mu Tianyuan.

Then, the Meowth-heroine led Mu Tianyuan and the little fox through several twists and turns to a sparsely populated alley.

After reaching a corner where an old, broken cabinet was piled up, the Meowth-heroine said, "Alright, this is my home, Meow!"

"Uh, this is your home?" Mu Tianyuan looked at the broken cabinet and asked. The Meowth-heroine nodded and said in a very cheerful tone, "That's right, that's right! I live here! How about it, isn't it great, Meow?"

"Uh, it's pretty good, pretty good..." Mu Tianyuan truly didn't know how to answer the Meowth-heroine's question. From a normal person's perspective, he really didn't think living here was "pretty good"..
