Chapter 26: Buying Pets

  【First update, please continue to support fellow villagers! 】The incident that occurred under the teaching building of the College of Literature and Arts has already been photographed by onlookers with their mobile phones and uploaded onto the Hainan University BBS, complete with vivid descriptions, turning it into a melodramatic scene from an idol drama.

  The identities of the three people were also dug up by gossip enthusiasts, and many idle people began to exercise their imagination, speculating about various possibilities behind the story.

  Snatching the school flower of the Faculty of Arts from Yang Feng's hands, although it made many people envy and resent, but also made more ordinary students regard Duan Lei as a heroic figure, his popularity suddenly increased by a large margin. As a result, all the bits and pieces about Duan Lei since he entered the university were exposed on BBS, gradually outlining an image of a diligent and hardworking young man who strives to make progress.

  …………

  Anyway, Duan Yue became famous!

  After returning to the dormitory, Duan Yue only discovered that things had already exceeded his expectations, and many things were beyond his control.

  "Stone, you've made such a big splash, next time you'd better be more careful, Yang Feng is not a broad-minded good sir! As the dormitory leader, Dashan felt it was his responsibility to give Duan Lei some reminders."

  At this point, he and Zhao Lin's ideas were consistent.

  Since the day Yang Feng broke into 5508, Dashan also learned about Yang Feng's past through his friends from the International Business School and found that this guy was a vengeful person. In the past, he had used some means to force a love rival to drop out of school in order to pursue a girl, and this matter was almost known to everyone at the International Business School.

  Now that things have blown up, Yang Feng, who values his reputation, will definitely not let it go. If he uses some underhanded tactics to deal with Duan Lei, it's going to be a bit of trouble.

  "Uh-huh, I know!" Duan Lei nodded, but didn't take it too seriously.

  Lying in bed, attending a long-awaited pajama party, Duan Yue felt a bit of novelty, sighing that it was still lively in school, unlike himself in the lab, alone and isolated.

  It just so happened that the weekend was next, and Duan Lei and Tang Lier's hand-in-hand figures appeared in various scenic spots in Haicheng, leaving behind wonderful memories. The relationship between the two also progressed better and better.

  But happy times always pass especially quickly, and before they knew it, the two of them had arrived at the time to part ways again.

  Duan Yue did not return to school, after parting with Tang Lier in the city center, he boarded a bus bound for Cai Village. For Duan Yue now, time is pressing and it's far from the time to enjoy.

  These two days with Tang Lian'er, Duan Lei could feel from her words and expressions that the Tang family was not an ordinary small family, but a large clan that had been established in Haicheng for hundreds of years.

  The Chinese attach importance to the door-to-door, this tradition even in rural areas is also common. Duan Lin has a clear understanding of this. If he wants to be recognized by Tang Lier's parents, he must have his own career, otherwise things are not easy to handle.

  If it were in the past, Duan Yue really didn't have that much confidence, but with the possession of the Maya civilization, Duan Yue was full of confidence.

  Back in the lab of Cai Village, Duan Yue began to cultivate the melon aphids in fifteen nutrient tanks and started preparing the "opening liquid" in his spare time.

  Using the sponge gourd to absorb the silver from the waste liquid, sell it and accumulate funds, and wake up Ding Ding from its sleep as soon as possible. Prepare the 'opening liquid', so that your income can be gradually transferred under the sunlight, rather than sneaking around like now.

  With the experience of preparing the swallowing grass culture solution, Duan Lei's preparation of 'Kai Kuo liquid' was quite smooth, and after a few failures, he successfully prepared the 'Kai Kuo liquid' as indicated in the data.

  …………

  When Haicheng was first built, its foundation was always on the west side of Haihe River, known as Haixi. After reform and opening up, Haidong was gradually developed into a world-renowned financial center. However, as an old city district, Haixi did not decline because of this, but instead showed new vitality, such as the Haixi Flower and Bird Market that Duan Lei is going to visit, which is a typical example.

  In People's Park, every morning there are a large number of retired elderly people exercising, walking birds, and walking dogs. Gradually, some small shops selling flowers, grasses, and pets appeared in the alleys nearby. After decades of development, a huge flower and bird market was formed around People's Park, becoming one of the largest wholesale markets in East China, famous far and wide.

  In recent years, with the continuous improvement of people's living standards, the consumption market for flowers and birds has expanded rapidly, and the business scale is getting bigger and bigger. Especially in the past two years, after the renovation of the flower and bird market, it has taken on a brand new look to welcome guests from all sides, making People's Park once again a landmark existence in Haicheng.

  After taking the bus from Cai Village to the city center of Haidong, Duan Lei transferred to Metro Line 1 and crossed half of Haicheng before arriving at People's Park Station.

  "Xiang Cao Zhai", standing at the bottom of the stairs, looking up at the three large characters floating on the signboard, Duan Lei felt a sense of intimacy, after all, he had worked in this flower shop for nearly a year.

  Entering the "Xiang Cao Zhai", the interior decoration has not changed much, with antique furniture and potted plants trimmed like artworks, creating a elegant space.

  "Welcome!" A girl wearing a blue floral short-sleeved shirt came up and smiled.

  "Is Uncle Qian here?" The girl in front of him might be a new employee who came after he left, and didn't recognize him. Duan Lei asked aloud.

  "Oh, you're looking for the boss? He's in the backyard!" The girl heard Duan Lei's greeting and knew he was a familiar person, so she quickly led him into the backyard.

  As I entered the backyard, a fake mountain came into view, with its peculiarly shaped Taihu stones and gently flowing water instantly bringing the entire courtyard to life. In the middle of the yard, a tea table made from intricately carved black wood was quite eye-catching, while a chubby man lay on a recliner with his eyes closed, basking in relaxation.

  "Uncle Qian!" Seeing the self-satisfied fatty, Duan Lei couldn't help but feel a little excited, his voice also rising by an octave.

  Pangzi is called Qian Dihai, the boss of 'Xiangcao Zhai'. When Duan Lei used to work here, he took good care of him.

  "Huh? Shi Tou, how come you have time to come here today?" Seeing Duan Yue in front of him, Pang Zi smiled with his eyes narrowed into a slit.

  Duan Lei worked at 'Xiang Cao Zhai' during this time, whether it was receiving customers or the daily management of potted landscapes, all made Qian Baozi very satisfied. If Duan Lei hadn't gone to work in a gardening field to strengthen his professional course practice, Qian Baozi wouldn't have let him go so easily.

  "I came over today to buy some things and thought I'd drop by to see you." Duan Lei wasn't polite, after sitting down he poured himself a cup of tea and drank it all in one gulp.

  "You little guy, drinking tea or chewing cud like a cow! Qian Pangzi didn't dare to flatter Duan Lei's way of drinking tea, and laughed: "What do you want to buy today? Do you want me to show you the way?"

  "Today I really can't do it alone, I'm going to buy a pomeranian, you have to help me take care of it!" Duan Rui naturally didn't beat around the bush and directly stated his purpose.

  In the flower and bird market, due to the good business, some merchants will inevitably do things like selling inferior goods as high-quality ones or passing off fake goods as genuine ones. If you are not a connoisseur, you may be deceived without even realizing it.

  With a wealthy and cunning old man like You Qian leading the way, Duan Lei naturally didn't have to worry about being cheated.

  "This is no problem, anyway I have time now, so I'll take you to see!" Qian Paozi also didn't decline, and got up to take Duan Lei to Pet Street.

  As soon as he walked into the pet street, all kinds of strange and unusual pets could be seen, from goldfish, parrots to lizards, electric eels, etc. Duan Lei even saw that some shops were selling golden pythons. Of course, the most common ones were still dogs, cats and other traditional pets, which made Duan Lei's eyes dazzled.

  After a while, Qian Pangzi quickly found a familiar dog house for Duan Yun and spent 2,000 yuan to buy a one-month-old purebred Tibetan Mastiff. The reason for buying the Tibetan Mastiff was that Duan Yun had a good impression of this famous breed originating from China, and also, the Tibetan Mastiff is one of the few large breeds that can be legally raised in Haicheng.

  The puppy's eyes were very clear shortly after opening, and the silly expression made Duan Lei like it instantly. Duan Lei bought dog food and asked the owner of the kennel for a feeding notice, and then put the little guy in a ventilated cardboard box.

  All the way, Qian Pangzi didn't ask Duan Lei how he suddenly became so rich and bought a relatively expensive pet for him. He just sent Duan Lei to the bus station and returned to 'Xiangcao Zhai'.

  With the little guy, it's impossible to pass the subway security check, so Duan Yue had no choice but to take a bus back to Cai Village with the cardboard box. Fortunately, Haicheng's public transportation system is well-developed, and after two transfers, which took two hours, Duan Yue returned to the laboratory in Cai Village.

  The little guy who just changed his environment seems to be a bit shy, curled up in the cardboard box, staring at Duan Lei with curious eyes as he walks back and forth in the room, occasionally making adorable humming sounds.

  Duan Yue took out the 'Awakening Liquid' data, considering every step and detail of using the 'Awakening Liquid', before starting to take out the already prepared 'Awakening Liquid' from the refrigerator.

  The little guy looked at the milky white ** in front of him, hesitated for a moment, and Duan Lei didn't stay by his side all the time, but quietly retreated from the bedroom, observing secretly through the door gap.

  After a while, the little guy who was already a bit hungry couldn't help it anymore and tentatively stuck out his tongue to lick. This time, it was unstoppable, the taste of 'opening liquid' seemed to be just right for the little guy's stomach, he quickly drank up a small plate of 'opening liquid', only then did he lie back in the cardboard box with satisfaction.

  Duan Yue watched as the little guy finished drinking the 'opening liquid', and his hanging heart fell slightly, but a bigger test was still ahead, that is, whether the effect of the 'opening liquid' could be as magical as described in the data?
