As a lord, I was forced to farm

Chapter 921 Bull Beast and Eagle Beast

Fu Bao Beast Shop has only two kinds of spirit beasts: the Azure Kui Ox and the Ferocious Eagle.

The Qingkui ox is only one size larger than an ordinary ox, with a shoulder height of about two meters. It has black fur and brown horns with natural wood-like patterns. Jiang Ran was attracted to the Qingkui ox and thus noticed Fubao Animal Shop.

The Qingkui is gentle, strong, and has a strong vitality. It can survive in the wilderness and in water, making it very suitable as a draft animal. Most importantly, its manure has great uses. The book "Puzhong Nongshu" that the system rewarded records a recipe for improving the soil with the manure of the Qingkui ox.

The Savage Eagle differs from the Green Kui Ox; it is a fierce bird of prey with a volatile temper, menacing features, a robust physique, and menacing eyes. When standing, it reaches above an adult's waist. Its beak is short and thick, jet black, with a dagger-like downward curve at the tip. Its claws are larger than two adult fists combined, with black talons nearly half a foot long, curved like eagle hooks, their tips gleaming, covered with smooth, dark brown stiff feathers resembling a row of parallel blades. Its long tail feathers can lash out like a steel whip during combat.

It's clear that Fubao Beast Training has done an excellent job in cultivating and training the two kinds of spirit beasts. The Qingkui Ox has retained its gentleness and has been trained to be very bold. Even though it was in an unfamiliar environment and was injured, it lay on the ground to rest without making a fuss. When it saw Jiang Ran coming over, it twitched its ears warily and stared at Jiang Ran with its black bull eyes wide open.

The eyes of the Savage Eagles were filled with a strong wildness. Unlike Wangji Beast Shop, Fubao Beast Shop did not use a black iron cage with runes to lock these ferocious beasts. They only locked a rope chain on their claws. To be honest, if these Savage Eagles really wanted to escape, even an iron chain could not restrain them, let alone some straw rope.

This proves that Fu Bao Beast Training has successfully tamed these spirit beasts and is confident that the Azure Kui Ox and the Fierce Mang Eagle will not act rashly without their master's command.

Perhaps the old man and his family wouldn't have tied the beasts up with ropes if they weren't afraid of frightening customers. But clearly, others were either disgusted by the wounds on these spirit beasts, or afraid of the fierce-looking monsters with only a rope tied around their legs.

Jiang Ran also offered her suggestions and asked why they didn't use cages and special chains to restrain the spirit beasts.

Xue Yinghui and Xue Yan were both embarrassed and unhappy. The former kept nagging, her voice gentle and kind, "Where would we get the money to buy some black iron cage and chains? Besides, the children would be very uncomfortable being bound like that."

"Excuse me." The old man was clearly not just after profit, treating the spirit beasts as mere money-making tools, but rather nurturing them with care. Jiang Ran had seen this kind of dedication in Zhou Yixiao as well, and she showed an apologetic expression.

Actually, Jiang Ran mainly accompanied Zhou Yixiao this time, but she didn't expect to encounter such a suitable spirit beast. With the Qingkui Ox, it would be much easier to manage the Xiangling Secret Realm and cultivate the spirit fields. Although the Ningmang Eagle was fierce in combat, Jiang Ran was not so interested. However, the grandfather and grandson had tamed the birds of prey so well, and they were basically all adults. This meant that as long as the Ningmang Eagle recognized her as its master, they could be used by her immediately.

They will be their own claws and eyes.

Jiang Ran was somewhat tempted.

Fifteen blue-green oxen and thirty-one fierce eagles.

Jiang Ran pondered for a moment. Both of these magical beasts had huge appetites. Raising them to adulthood would probably require countless spirit crystals and a lot of effort. Buying them all would probably cost a lot of money.

However, she was always extravagant with her money, and Qu Shui Lou had recently made quite a bit. If not now, when? So she looked up and asked, "How many spirit crystals would it cost to buy all of these spirit beasts?" Xue Yan, who was already stroking the feathers of the Savage Eagle in a daze, immediately looked up when he heard this. "Buy...buy...buy them all?"

Jiang Ran nodded.

Upon receiving confirmation, the grandfather and grandson were both quite excited.

But they soon found themselves in a dilemma. In fact, they didn't know what price to give. They remembered that a few customers had asked them about their prices, and the customers would immediately shake their heads and leave. They were worried that they had quoted too high a price and that this big customer would run away.

Xue Yan hesitated for a moment, then turned his expectant gaze to his grandmother. Xue Yinghui, however, gave him a quick wink: "My dear grandson, why are you looking at me? Hurry up and give the customer a quote!"

Xue Yan's eyes widened: Grandma...you're my grandma, your grandson will listen to you!

Over there, the old man pretended to be very busy feeding the Qingkui ox.

Jiang Ran waited a while, and Xue Yan thought he couldn't stay silent, so he forced himself to say a number, "For the whole... the whole amount, give me three million eight hundred and fifty thousand..."

He frantically calculated in his mind: 100,000 spirit crystals for a Savage Eagle, 50,000 spirit crystals for a Green Kui Ox... No, their spirit beasts were injured, wasn't this price a bit too high...?

Xue Yan looked up at Jiang Ran's face and saw a slightly strange expression on her otherwise ordinary face. His heart skipped a beat: Grandma! I knew I was no good at business! The prices I quoted would scare away the customers.

The next moment, Jiang Ran handed over a storage bag. "There are four million spirit crystals in here. I don't have any food for these spirit beasts right now. Give me all the feed from your Fubao Beast Shop as well. And could you also help me take these spirit beasts to Heng Lane?"

Jiang Ran also wanted to consult the grandfather and grandson on how to tame and command these spirit beasts. If possible, she hoped to cooperate long-term and provide Da Su with these two kinds of spirit beasts.

Xue Yan was surprised that Jiang Ran was so generous with the money, and even gave him too much. He instinctively wanted to refuse the extra spirit crystals, suggesting that he could give her the fodder instead, but his kind and beautiful employer refused.
Xue Yan's face flushed with excitement, "Okay!"

Meanwhile, the three employees of Wang's Beast Shop were filled with both hatred and fear, secretly watching Jiang Ran's movements. When they saw the grandfather and grandson from Fu Bao Beast Shop packing their things with excited expressions, they were slightly taken aback. "No way, did that person really buy spirit beasts there? That shabby beast shop? Those spirit beasts were all injured!"

The blue-collar guard looked on with envy. He said that the customer was easy to fool, and that the young man ruined his plans!
Jiang Ran went to find Zhou Yixiao, who had wandered around but hadn't chosen any other spirit beasts.

Her pretty, delicate brows furrowed, and she no longer felt the joy she had felt when she first bought the Ice Feather Sparrow. As she left Wang Ji Animal Shop with Jiang Ran, she said, "Many of the animal caretakers at Wang Ji Animal Shop are dishonest. They exaggerate ordinary animals as rare and sell sick animals to their customers. Such behavior is a disgrace to animal caretakers."
