It's already the 21st century, and I just found the imperial seal

Having promised Xiao Yuhan that he would accompany her back to her hometown, Su Yu went together on the fifth day after Long Xuanxuan's child was born, before the end of the first lunar month.

The little girl was dressed in thick clothes, so her bulging belly was not noticeable.

Su Yu was treated as a VIP during this trip without any mistreatment.

His relatives there all knew he was rich and capable, and they were very welcoming to him.

Even Xiao Yuhan's mother, who is already divorced, came.

I didn't say much, just told him to take good care of his daughter.

Su Yu didn't say anything, just told her to live a good life and not let Xiao Yuhan lose face in Furong City anymore.

After quickly finishing up some tasks around him, Su Yu shifted his focus to his own career development.

As we all know, spring has arrived, all things are reviving, grass is growing and birds are flying, and it is the breeding season for animals.

It's time to launch his animal army plan.

I visited Jiaojiao Pet Shop again.

This time, Tu Jiaojiao warmly welcomed him inside.

Pointing to a cage, she smiled and introduced, "Boss Su, we've got a batch of Chinese mole rats this time. Do you think they suit your taste?"

Su Yu looked inside at the ten large gray rats, each over twenty centimeters long. They were stout, with short limbs and sharp front claws, and each weighed more than half a pound.

These animals, though they look like big rats, actually have absolutely nothing to do with rats.

The Chinese mole rat, also known as the blind rat, is the creature often depicted in cartoons carrying a shovel and digging holes.

Pink nose, sesame-seed-like eyes, shovel-like claws, bald forehead, a fluffy mound of earth digging tunnels underground!
Su Yu asked, "Are they a male and a female?"

"As you requested, five males and five females."

Tu Jiaojiao laughed and said, "Moreover, it has excellent genes and has never been bred or had children after being selected as a breeding mouse."

"I bought them for two thousand yuan each, and I'll sell them to you for two thousand five hundred yuan each."

Pet profits are usually doubled, so she's already being very generous by only making 500 per pet.

"I've transferred all the money to your account. You can deduct the amount yourself, and ask me for more if you need more."

Su Yu nodded. "Just find what I need for me."

Tu Jiaojiao laughed and said, "I know you're not short of money now, so I feel perfectly justified in making some money off you!"

Wrapped in a black cloth, Su Yu brought the ten Chinese mole rats to the car.

These creatures usually live underground, surrounded by darkness year-round. If they are exposed to sunlight for an extended period, they may experience allergies and stress reactions.

Now he needs to bring them all back as soon as possible.

He went to his old two-bedroom apartment in Meixian, which he had cleaned up so he could come here occasionally to take care of some things.

When the black cloth was lifted, the ten Chinese mole rats inside were terrified, huddled together, their chubby bodies trembling.

Seeing the ugly appearance of these little creatures, and their sharp claws and teeth, Su Yu dared not underestimate them at all.

After being officially appointed by him, these guys were all top-tier "tomb raiders"!
"By imperial decree, I hereby bestow upon Da Jin, Er Jin... Shi Jin, the title of Ninth Rank Tomb Raider Captain!"

"Bestowed the title of Grand Gold, Second Gold... Ten Gold, as a ninth-rank Tomb Raider Captain, consuming 100,000 points of luck."

After the imperial decree was issued, the Chinese mole rats, who had been terrified of him, gradually quieted down.

Living underground, their eyesight has deteriorated, yet they still try their best to keep their eyes open and observe their surroundings, as if they are looking for something.
Su Yu opened the cage, then deliberately coughed, "Cough cough—"

Upon hearing the cough, all the Chinese mole rats rushed out of their cages and galloped toward Su Yu.

Finally, they lay down in a row, heads slightly raised, gazing at their master!

As his rank increases, he can also add some memory instructions to the conferment during the conferment process, just like the memory inheritance of Warcraft.

With the memory instructions, even though they have only just been conferred titles, these little creatures are already able to understand simple commands.

Just randomly pick one.

[Name: Sanjin]

Age: Nine months

[Official Rank: Ninth-Rank Tomb Raider Captain]

[Aura: Pale Yellow]

[Destiny Chart: Kui Gang brings good fortune; Earth and Metal elements bring wealth. Talent: Night Vision.]

[Today's Fortune: A chance to change your destiny and achieve great success]

Kui Gang Brings Good News: Those with a strong destiny and a fierce nature are straightforward, decisive, and capable of suppressing ghosts and gods.

Earth generates metal, ensuring a continuous flow of wealth.

His destiny is good, and he fits the description of a ninth-rank tomb raider very well.

Moreover, he has an additional talent—night vision!
Night Vision: Seeing clearly in the dark as if it were daytime!
Perhaps this was their original talent, which was only enhanced after he bestowed it upon them.

Sensing the hunger emanating from these little creatures, Su Yu took out food for them.

It was a serving of sweet potato chunks mixed with Dragon Elephant Returning to Origin Pills.

These guys pounced on the food as soon as they saw it and ate happily.

Su Yu watched silently. It was a bit ugly, but it would be of great use to him in the future.

These ten Chinese mole rats are just the beginning; he wants to use them to turn ten into one hundred, then into ten thousand, and finally into one million.

Then control them, let them help to sort out the earth vein dragon energy, and gather all the earth vein dragon energy in the surrounding area together.

They can also control them, generation after generation, endlessly, to dig out a magnificent underground palace.

With satellites and drones everywhere in the sky these days, undertaking large-scale construction projects or building palaces on the ground is tantamount to courting death.

But it's different when it's built underground.

He could, like in "The Truman Show," install a sun that rises in the east and sets in the west in an underground palace, then plant flowers and plants to make everything look just like the outside world.

You could even adopt some orphans, tell them that the world is flat and has an end, and let them live in it forever.

With external energy supplies, the underground world can be just as wonderful.

Centuries later, they will also develop their own new civilization.

Thinking about it this way, Su Yu suddenly felt a bit great, like an omnipotent creator.

After the little creatures finished eating the sweet potato chunks, Su Yu let them climb back into their cage.

This time, they were no longer fearful or panicked.

However, they still have a fatal weakness: they are afraid of sunlight.

Their home is underground.

However, humans are now causing too much damage to nature, and the environments suitable for their survival are becoming increasingly scarce.

Moreover, these creatures have many natural enemies, and if you're not careful, they can become food for other animals.

He bought them for 2,500 yuan each so that he could use them as breeding rodents and reproduce them indefinitely.

Each one carries an incredibly heavy mission.

No one is allowed to die before the baby babies are born!

After thinking about it, he decided not to put it in the wild.

They were brought directly back to the villa and placed on the lawn in the backyard, where they were allowed to multiply underground.

The environment there is relatively quiet, and apart from when the trees and flowers are being pruned, no one disturbs them.

Importantly, there are fewer natural enemies there.

After wrapping himself in a black cloth, Su Yu drove back to the villa.

The nanny, Wu Xiaoxia, was tidying up the villa by herself. When she saw him come back, she immediately asked him if he had any plans for the evening.
Su Yu smiled and said, "I'll be having dinner at home tonight, just a normal meal."

Despite strong opposition from both sets of parents, Gu Jie, who was more than five months pregnant, insisted on going to work at the marriage agency.

Su Yu agreed with this point.

Staying at home with nothing to do, even healthy people start to get sick.

After all, he had to deal with other women, instead of focusing all his attention on Gu Jie and giving her constant care.

Having a class to pass the time is actually quite nice. Besides, Gu Jie is used to her current pace and doesn't feel uncomfortable or out of place because of her pregnancy.

However, Gu Jie is no longer in charge of the matchmaking activities; instead, she has handed them over to others.

Everyone had no choice but to accept this situation.

The mother-in-law even moved into the villa and drove her daughter to and from get off work every day.

Upon arriving in the backyard, Su Yu released all ten Chinese mole rats.

There was no sun, but the weather was rather gloomy.

However, this is already somewhat unsuitable for the Chinese mole rat.

Su Yu said, "I hereby declare that you two shall be husband and wife!"

With his command issued, the ten little creatures quickly formed five pairs, and from then on, they had a stable marital relationship.

We'll live together from now on, raise our children together, and expand our family.

"All right!"

Su Yu then said, "From now on, stay in this courtyard and don't go out. Everyone, disperse!"

With the final command given, all ten little creatures stuck out their rear ends, brandished their two sharp claws, and began digging holes in the ground.

In no time, five burrows appeared in the backyard, but the ten Chinese mole rats from before had disappeared.

Su Yu was amazed; these little guys were truly skilled at digging.

He truly deserves the title of Ninth-Rank Tomb Raider Captain bestowed upon him by his own decree!
Upon arriving at the villa's living room, Su Yu called over the nanny and instructed her, "Sister Wu, I've raised ten Chinese mole rats in the backyard to help them activate the soil."

"If you find them, do not harm them."

"Every day when I have nothing to do, I throw in a few pieces of potatoes, sweet potatoes, and carrots, and occasionally I buy some live dandelions to feed them."

After spending more time together, Wu Xiaoxia also knew that Su Yu was quite extraordinary, so she didn't ask any more questions: "I understand, Mr. Su."

Su Yu smiled and said, "They are very cute. Don't be afraid when you see them."

"I know."

Wu Xiaoxia laughed along, "I have them in my hometown too, they're called ground goats. I'm just afraid they'll ruin the garden."

Su Yu said, "They just live inside. As long as there is enough food, they won't damage the vegetation in the garden."

Wu Xiaoxia smiled and said, "That's good."

After instructing the nanny, Su Yu went to the top floor.

This is a large balcony, surrounded by dozens of flower pots filled with various lush green plants.

On one of the plants, there was a bird's nest.

As cities destroy the natural environment, some birds are forced to build their nests in human dwellings, competing with them for increasingly scarce living space.

This is the nest built by a pair of doves, who plan to lay their eggs here.

Wu Xiaoxia discovered it first, and then notified him.

The woman of the house is pregnant and about to give birth.

However, an uninvited guest arrived at the house. As a nanny, she certainly couldn't make the decision on her own; informing the male homeowner was the right thing to do.

Whether to drive them away or let them continue to live here, the decision is up to the male homeowner.

Upon receiving this news, Su Yu naturally checked it out immediately.

Then, taking advantage of the two doves returning to their nest at night, they were officially incorporated into the family and given official rations.

As soon as he appeared on the rooftop balcony, two doves flew over from a large tree not far away.

"call--"

"call--"

It gently flapped its wings and kept circling around him.

Finally, at Su Yu's signal, they landed on his shoulders, one on each side, and affectionately nuzzled each other with their heads!
Name: Big Spot

Age: 1 year old

[Official Rank: Ninth-Rank Scout Captain]

[Aura: Pale Yellow]

[Destiny Chart: Tianji Star transforms into Lu, Day Master belongs to Geng Metal, Traveling Star is strong]

Today's fortune: Carefree and harmonious, a loving relationship with your spouse.

Tianji Star with Lu (prosperity): One is adaptable, observant, has a strong ability to capture information, enjoys thinking, and has a high thirst for knowledge.

The Day Master belongs to Geng Metal, and the Traveling Star is strong: Although one's life is full of travel, one is resolute and decisive, adaptable to sudden changes, has keen intuition, and is good at concealing one's strength.

These two doves are in estrus and will lay eggs in three to five days at most, and then begin incubation.

With his intervention, there's no fear that the hatched baby doves won't survive.

Just as he was teasing the two doves, his phone rang.

Upon picking it up, I saw it was Zhou Xiaoqiang.

Time is tight and tasks are heavy.

Although they haven't held a wedding yet, this guy has already taken his fiancée to the grasslands for their honeymoon.

It's rare for couples to get married after their honeymoon.

"Hey--"

"Xiaoqiang—"

Hearing the boss's voice, Zhou Xiaoqiang whispered, "Brother, someone caught a gyrfalcon, do you want it?"

"A gyrfalcon?"

Su Yu narrowed his eyes slightly. "How much?"

"They're offering five million!"

Zhou Xiaoqiang said, "I estimate three million should be enough."

"Then you should ask around for me."

Su Yu nodded. "Call me again after you've asked around."

Zhou Xiaoqiang replied, "Then I'll send you a message tonight."

After hanging up the phone, Su Yu was in a good mood.

Although Zhou Xiaoqiang, Liu Jun, and Lei Tianbao were nominally appointed to the security department—one as deputy manager and the other as supervisor—they did not actually have any real authority.

My usual task is to follow the orders of my boss.

Previously, he had these three people help him collect dogs of all breeds.

They were then placed in a dog breeding farm for breeding and raising, and were also granted the title of soldiers.

Now that the dog population is saturated and there's no need to collect any more, they've turned to collecting various birds of prey and wild beasts.

Under the guise of animal and plant research and conservation, he built a small animal and plant research and conservation center in Chiayi City.

With the help of Xue Chiyue, the Small Ecological Animal and Plant Research and Conservation Research Center has entered the final stage of review.

It should be approved next month.

With the title of this small-scale ecological and flora and fauna research and conservation center, he was able to apply to the local area for a piece of undisturbed primeval forest as a research subject.

Then he can keep these collected birds of prey and wild animals in this area.

He has already collected some animals and is just waiting for the conservation research center's documents to be reviewed.

Unexpectedly, Zhou Xiaoqiang didn't forget his job while on his honeymoon.

A gyrfalcon certainly can't be transported directly to the city.

He has to go there himself.
