Beast Taming: Starting From Zero
Chapter 363: Lubao, come here
Among the Staff, a woman whose uniform was clearly different from that of ordinary Staff members, instantly transformed her expression like a Sichuan opera mask, and walked up with an enthusiastic smile:
“Hello, I’m the manager here. Please come to the VIP room inside to rest for a moment. We need to tally the potions that meet your requirements.”
“Alright.” Ye Xiangting said numbly.
After being enthusiastically escorted into the VIP room by the Staff and taking her seat, Qiao Sang thought she would have to wait at least several tens of minutes, but to her surprise, the manager walked in after she had only taken two sips of red tea.
Several Staff members, carrying exquisite boxes, followed behind her.
The manager, with a beaming smile, said, “According to your requirements, our store has a total of 7 bottles of suitable potions. Would you like them to be wrapped up now, or delivered directly to your home?”
7 bottles?
Qiao Sang was momentarily stunned and asked, “Only 7 bottles?”
The manager’s already bright eyes immediately lit up even more. 7 bottles and she still thought it was too few! How inhumanly rich! She loved it!
“Actually, there are many potions suitable for Fire-type, Superpower System, Ghost-type, Water-type, Ice, and Flying-type Pet, but you requested that the potions be identified as S-grade or above, so there aren’t many left.” The manager actively explained:
“S-grade potions are scarce. Our store’s monthly allocation of S-grade potions is fixed at only a few bottles. If you still want more, I can apply to the higher-ups.”
Qiao Sang simply glanced at the boxes in the hands of the Staff and asked, “Are all these 7 bottles S-grade?”
“Yes.” The manager nodded.
“What about SS-grade and SSS-grade?” Qiao Sang asked.
She felt like a rich bumpkin who didn’t understand anything, but who cared, the one with money was the boss… The manager chose her words carefully and replied, “For these two grades of potions, there might only be a few bottles a year, and they are only sold at the main store.”
“Moreover, they are basically pre-ordered by old customers, so you can’t buy them if you go directly.”
“It’s not just us; it’s the same if you go to other potion stores. They definitely don’t have these two grades of potions either.”
Qiao Sang understood.
Originally, her consumption level was still at a comfortable standard of living, and the items she encountered were all displayed by merchants for purchase.
Now that the quality of items she could access had suddenly increased significantly, she realized that when money reached a certain amount, the desired items might not always be obtainable simply by money alone.
Truly rare and uncommon items were mostly already consumed internally or given to big shots.
However, she didn’t need these types of items right now.
Seriously speaking, given her current situation, D-grade potions were actually completely sufficient.
Qiao Sang thought for a moment and said, “Then wrap up all the B-grade and above potions for me.”
The potions were quickly tallied, a total of 212 bottles.
Then, Qiao Sang left her number and asked the other party to deliver energy recovery liquid of at least B-grade to her every month.
This made the manager ecstatic and she immediately agreed that no matter where in the world, with just one call, the goods would be delivered directly to her doorstep on the same day.
Finally, Qiao Sang had the Staff member who initially received her settle the bill.
…
Qingcheng Jiayuan.
Building C, Unit 606.
Qiao Sang returned home alone; Ye Xiangting refused her daughter’s company and went to the Pet breeding store by herself.
According to her, moving the store was a big deal. She had to busy herself with renovations, advertisements, and prepare everything thoroughly. On the way, she also had to look around Hanggang City to find a good enough house suitable for Pet training and living.
Her daughter needed to rest well and prepare for the upcoming National Campus Pet Beast League; she could handle these trivial matters by herself.
Qiao Sang couldn’t argue with her mother, so she returned alone.
Back in her room, Qiao Sang summoned both Yabao and Lubao.
Lubao was fine, but Yabao was too large and could only float in mid-air.
“Little Qunbao, take out all the potions we bought today.”
“Qun~”
Little Qunbao took off its ring and continuously pulled out boxes containing potions from inside.
Before long, the boxes filled with potions covered the entire bed.
“Qun…”
Little Qunbao was still diligently pulling them out.
“Enough, enough, that’s enough for now.” Qiao Sang stopped him.
“Qun…”
Little Qunbao put his ring back on and wiped the non-existent sweat from his forehead.
“Ya?”
Yabao lowered its head curiously and extended a claw, wanting to pick up a box to look at it.
Qiao Sang was startled at the sight and quickly shouted, “Don’t move! I’ll open it for you to see!”
What a joke, with Yabao’s current strength, the potion inside might just be crushed as soon as it was taken out and squeezed casually.
“Ya…”
Yabao dejectedly retracted its claw.
Why was this evolution not good at all? Besides becoming a bit handsomer and stronger, there were so many other restrictions…
“When we move into a big house, everything will be fine, and this is proof of your strength. Look at Little Qunbao and… Little Qunbao, they can’t even imagine being like you.” Qiao Sang comforted him while casually opening a box containing a potion.
“Qun…”
Little Qunbao pouted and silently floated to Qiao Sang’s head.
It was fine, it could stay on its Yu Beast Master’s head…
Qiao Sang spent half an hour watching the accompanying videos in the boxes and memorized the name and function of each potion.
Damage potion, energy-boosting potion, illusion-fusion potion, potential enhancement potion…
Honestly, most of them were potions she hadn’t heard of before.
For high school students who had just started Yu Beast High School, their knowledge of Pet, apart from some very common or popular and well-known ones, was entirely new.
Potions were no exception.
Qiao Sang was unfamiliar with most of the potions here, but fortunately, there were related videos, which allowed her to understand the effects of each potion very intuitively.
Little Qunbao could drink this one.
Yabao could drink this one.
Lubao… Just as Qiao Sang was assigning which Pet would drink which potion, the phone rang.
She glanced at the caller ID and answered:
“Hello, Principal.”
Ever since the Principal agreed that the school would pay for Yabao’s Energy Pill, Qiao Sang had proactively asked for the Principal’s number, just in case Yabao ran out of Energy Pill someday and she needed to tell him…
Wang Weidou on the other end of the phone said excitedly:
“I just received news that among the top three in the entire province in this National Campus Pet Beast League, there will be a ‘Most Potential Award’, and the prize is a bottle of A-grade Potential Enhancement Potion!”
A-grade Potential Enhancement Potion? Qiao Sang glanced at the S-grade Potential Enhancement Potion in her hand.
Wang Weidou continued excitedly, “If there are no surprises, this award will definitely be yours! As long as Liao Xing Hound drinks the A-grade Potential Enhancement Potion, it’s not impossible to enter the finals!”
Qiao Sang calmly said, “I know, Principal, I will work hard.”
“Oh, right, do you still remember the Vice Principal of Xiong Ding High School from yesterday?” Wang Weidou suddenly calmed down and asked.
Of course she remembered, the one with bad kidneys… Qiao Sang asked in confusion, “I remember, what’s wrong?”
Wang Weidou said seriously, “He invited me to dinner today and told me that Ding Yanjing of Li Tan Royal Pet High School, his Guwei Flower has evolved into a Guwei Sunflower.”
Qiao Sang was surprised.
Her sixth sense was actually so accurate!
“This news should be true. That guy has some connections within Li Tan, and you just finished Healing him, so he wouldn’t lie with this kind of news.” At this point, Wang Weidou’s tone relaxed again:
“But don’t feel pressured. You have Liao Xing Hound now, and its attribute just happens to counter his Guwei Sunflower.”
“I understand, Principal.” Qiao Sang said.
Then Wang Weidou gave a few more instructions.
After hanging up the phone, Qiao Sang looked at the S-grade Potential Enhancement Liquid in her hand and turned to say gently, “Lubao, come here.”
“Lu.”
