My beast taming system has absolutely no problems!

The contract process went much more smoothly than expected, with the spirit serpent cooperating with the signing of the contract at the last moment.

This shows that it approves of her.

Although this approval was based on Xia Yu's persuasion.

Lin Sisi looked at Xia Yu and said earnestly, "Thank you."

"No need for thanks, it's a business transaction, each getting what they need."

Xia Yu shook his head and said, "Just come and patronize my business more often in the future."

Lin Sisi nodded solemnly and said, "It definitely will."

After saying that, she pulled Tang Yun, who had been watching the show from the sidelines, and prepared to leave.

Xia Yu suddenly remembered something, "Wait, you haven't taken your energy cubes for today."

Lin Sisi stopped and smiled sheepishly.

"Thank you, I almost forgot."

She took the energy cube box from Xia Yu and said, "By the way, order another box next time, for Snake."

Lin Sisi naturally inherited Xia Yu's nickname for the Spirit Curse Snake.

Xia Yu smiled and nodded, "No problem, let's start tomorrow."

Chapter 25 Big Shopping Spree, Ten Consecutive Draws on the Pokémon Lucky Wheel!

More than an hour after Lin Sisi left, Zhao Yuankang rushed over, panting heavily.

Same configuration.

A black bank card, plus a man who looks like a pet appraiser.

Unfortunately, the Spirit Serpent wouldn't be waiting for him there.

In the end, Zhao Yuankang only experienced empty sorrow.

After seeing off the distraught Zhao Yuankang, it was almost nine o'clock.

Zhao Yuankang and Lin Sisi arrived around five or six o'clock.

It's really late after all that trouble.

Xia Yu was finally able to end this incredibly fulfilling day of business.

Yes, my wallet is indeed quite full now.

After closing the shop door, Xia Yu immediately revealed his nouveau riche nature.

"Aunt Xue, I'm not having noodles tonight! I'll treat you to the best takeout in Shanghai!"

Lady Xueling tilted her head, revealing a wronged expression.

"Eek?"

Does my little master not like the noodles I make anymore?

After spending so many days together, Xia Yu had a fairly good understanding of Madam Xue Ling.

He quickly waved his hand and said, "No, no, I don't dislike Aunt Xue's noodles... ptooey, the noodles you make."

Xia Yu was so excited that he stammered.

He quickly added, "Well, we're rich now, so let's try something different!"

Although it was still takeout, Xia Yu had read many food blogger reviews in his previous life.

The top-tier food delivery services in Shanghai are completely different from Pinhaofan.

The difference may be even greater than the gap between a low-priced pet and a mythical spirit beast.

Okay, that might be a bit of an exaggeration.

Even if it tastes delicious, isn't it still just carbohydrates and protein...?

Even so, Xia Yu, who had suddenly become rich, still ordered the famous "Qingxi Hui Treasure Basin".

Perhaps because the Beast Taming World has more precious ingredients, this takeout is more expensive than the 2688 in my previous life, almost double the price.

As for the taste...

"Yes, it's better than competing on having a good meal."

Xia Yu chewed on the chewy sea cucumber in his mouth and placed a piece of soft-boiled dried scallop into Madam Xue Ling's bowl.

"However, it's still quite a bit worse than the noodles you make, Aunt Xue."

Madam Xue Ling rolled her eyes at Xia Yu, still somewhat sullen.

Having grown accustomed to a life of hardship with her great-aunt, she was still heartbroken when she learned the price of this dinner.

Xia Yu chuckled and leaned over to comfort her, "Alright, Aunt Xue, don't be angry. I'll just try it this once. It's nothing special. I'll eat your noodles again in the future."

[Ding~ Lady Xue Ling's favorability towards you +10, current favorability 80]

After coaxing him for a while, we finally managed to calm down the longest-serving employee at Miaomiao Pet Shop.

Having eaten and drunk her fill and regained her spirits, Madam Xueling hummed an unknown tune as she cleared the table.

Xia Yu sat on the sofa and focused his mind into the system.

What should I do after I have money?

Of course, it's about spending money!

No, if it's for Brother Tong...

Can that be called consumption?

That's called investment!

Specialty plaster, deluxe energy cube machine, come on!

Fifteen million Donghuang Coins can be exchanged for fifteen thousand breeding coins in the Meow Meow Shop.

However, Xia Yu did not exchange that many.

Meow Meow Shop only updates three items a month, so there aren't that many things I want to buy.

The "Hercules" special plaster costs three thousand.

Upgrading the Magic Energy Cube Machine to the deluxe version costs 300.

It seems there's nothing left.

You can't spend it all, you simply can't spend it all!

Xia Yu has become completely arrogant.

They even dared to glance at the Meow Meow Shop, where the adorable Pokobi came into view.

Pocoby's Lucky Wheel.

How about we do a few 10-pulls for fun?

A set of ten costs 2700 breeding coins.

With Xia Yu's current wealth, he certainly can afford to squander it like that.

However, after calming down, he dismissed the idea.

No, even though I've finished buying everything from the Meow Meow Shop this month, there's still next month to go.

What if an Arceus egg appears that costs 10,000 breeding coins?

Although this conjecture is unrealistic, the underlying principle is the same.

Xia Yu needs to save money for the new items that will be added to the Meow Meow Shop next month.

After all, it's not every month you can find a Spirit Spell Serpent egg and be so lucky as to hatch it into a mutant with genetic skills.

It's good to be prepared for a rainy day!

But while we can plan ahead, we still have to live our lives as they are now.

Even if you don't go all in on the lucky draw, trying out a 10-pull is perfectly fine.

Having planned his spending for the day, Xia Yu was eager to begin his shopping spree.

"Brother Tongzi, how many breeding coins are needed to upgrade the Magic Energy Cube Maker to the deluxe version?"

Three hundred pieces.

After confirming that everything was correct, Xia Yu decisively said, "Promote!"

[Upgrading the Magical Energy Block Maker using 300 Breeding Coins...]

A soft white light illuminated the system space, and the virtual projection of the energy cube generator began to change.

The original silver-white metal shell gradually faded away, replaced by a streamlined light gold body.

A crystal-clear spherical filter has been added to the top, and fine energy conduits extend from both sides of the body.

Upgrade complete!

[Magic Energy Block Maker (Deluxe Edition): 99% success rate, random quality of finished product (5% Inferior, 25% Good, 50% Excellent, 20% Superior), can create all energy blocks!]

Xia Yu nodded in satisfaction.

The success rate jumped from 75% to 99%, which means that there will be almost no manufacturing failures in the future, and the utilization rate of raw materials has been greatly improved.

The probability of getting top-tier items jumped from 10% to 20%.

Most importantly, the probability of getting a high-quality product has almost doubled.

Overall, the stability has been greatly improved compared to the previous professional model.

These three hundred flowers are well worth it.

And then...

"Buy 'Hercules' Specialty Plaster!"
