Chapter 131: Beast Language Beginner

  Yang Feixue knew that if Jubaotang established a cooperative relationship with the three major auction houses abroad, then the items in Jubaotang could be put up for auction abroad. In terms of auction prices, it might even be higher at these three major auction houses.

  So now the situation has completely changed.

  Jubaozhai can leave Shengshi Auction House, but Shengshi Auction House cannot do without Jubaozhai. If Shengshi Auction House wants to keep Jubaozhai, it must make concessions.

  "Yang Feixue, have you heard of the Evil Dragon's Eye?" Yi Xue said calmly, not intending to give Yang Feixue a chance to catch her breath.

  "I've heard that the Evil Dragon's Eye is a legendary Western artifact that was lost 300 years ago. Recently, I heard that an auction house in Luxembourg acquired it and has already found an expert to appraise it, deciding to put it up for auction next month, which has caused quite a stir."

  "Do you know where the Dragon's Eye from the Luxembourg auction house came from?"

  "Could it be the Treasure Pavilion?"

  "Not bad, it's exactly what we sold to the Luxembourg auction house for $600 million."

  Su Wen followed, "Luxembourg Auction House's Beck and I have an agreement. They will soon announce the origin of the Evil Dragon's Eye, and at that time, Jibaozhai will definitely attract attention in the West. Yixue is right, we don't necessarily need to consign the item to Shengshi Auction House. The auction houses in the West are also good choices. Moreover, I have studied the commission rates of those Western auction houses, and they are much lower than Shengshi Auction House."

  Yang Feixue heard this and couldn't help but concede: "You win, a thousand times over. I didn't expect the hands of Jingbaozhai to stretch so far, all the way to the Western Regions."

  "It's just a coincidence, our foundation is in Huaxia, and we also hope to establish a long-term relationship with Shengshi Auction House."

  "Yang Feixue, I will draft a new contract."

  "Alright!"

  "All things considered, Yang Feixue asked: 'Bao Long, apart from the Three-Leafed Lingzhi, what else do you think is suitable for this month's auction?'"

  Baolong hesitated for half a day, took a deep breath and said: "Miss, among the treasures in Jibaozhai, many can be used as the final auction item. However, this month we have already decided to use San Ye Lingzhi as the final treasure, so the value of other treasures cannot exceed that of San Ye Lingzhi."

  "That's right, it makes sense."

  "I think the most suitable ones are Shenmu Dan and Shengli Dou, these two things are not only rare but also very valuable. I believe many people will pay attention to them."

  "Then there are these two."

  Su Wen naturally had no opinion: "You can let people take things away for publicity. Cooperation is pleasant."

  Yang Feixue hummed and said: "Not pleasant at all, I'm leaving."

  Su Wen is embarrassed.

  Evening

  Su Wen heard Xiao Tian's voice.

  "Master, Side Quest 1 has surged! Whoa, it's complete!"

  "What?"

  Su Wen entered the system, and all he saw was:

  Branch Task 1: Animal Lover's Recycler.

  Task Description: Protect animals, everyone is responsible, the host needs to save 1000 animals.

  Note: During this time, do not kill animals, otherwise Branch Task 1 will be permanently cancelled.

  Task Reward: Beast Language Primary (can communicate with quadruped mammals).

  Current progress: 1166/1000.

  Current status: Completed.

  Su Wen knew that these must be the national protected animals released yesterday.

  "Beast language beginner, can communicate with walking beast-type animals, wonder what situation it will be?"

  "Master, the rewards have been distributed."

  Su Wen thought for a moment and asked: "Xiao Tian, how should I use this ability?"

  "The master can now understand the language of beasts as long as he wants to listen, and what the master says will be understood by the beasts as long as he wants them to. The master's ability to speak with beasts can be thought of as a kind of translation software, which translates into a language that both parties can understand when communicating with animals."

  "I understand."

  "Master, although you can communicate with beasts through this method, some beasts have low intelligence. Even if they can understand what you say, they may not be able to respond in a timely manner, which is also related to the animal's own wisdom."

  "Uh-huh."

  Su Wen finished dinner and excitedly walked out.

  In the distance alley, two dogs, a spotted dog and a black dog.

  "What are they talking about?" Su Wen thought to herself.

  Flower Dog: "That guy who just passed by ate roasted duck and now he's covered in the smell of roasted duck."

  Black dog: "That guy who just passed by was drinking, I can smell the wine, and it's Maotai Chen Piao."

  Flower dog: "Quickly look at this person who is walking over, he actually ate stinky tofu, it's killing me."

  Black dog: "Stinky? I think it smells great!"

  Flower dog: "It really stinks, even worse than shit."

  Black dog: "Focus on eating shit, don't talk anymore, or it will get cold."

  ……

  Su Wen was completely disgusted.

  "Little brother, are you okay?" The guy in front turned around and asked.

  "Big brother, those two dogs said that your stinky tofu smells worse than shit." Su Wen pointed.

  "Nerve disease!" The guy in front showed a hint of annoyance, "The dog said it, I think you're the one who said it?"

  "No, it's really what they said, I heard it." Su Wen said seriously.

  "Get out, believe it or not I'll punch you. Hearing a dog talk, do you think you're also a dog?" The guy clenched his fist, if Su Wen dared to say another word, he was going to take action.

  "This..." Su Wen was embarrassed.

  After those guys left, the two local dogs looked at Su Wen with great suspicion.

  "Can he hear us talking?"

  "Really? We can actually hear him speaking?"

  "Could it be that we've encountered a ghost?"

  "Run quickly!"

  "Wait, Xiaohua, wait for me, we promised never to part ways."

  Su Wen was completely drunk, is this what it's like in a dog's world?

  Passing by a street corner.

  "Miss Cat, I am Su Wen. Nice to meet you."

  "Nice to meet you too, where are you from? This alley is my territory."

  "I am human, can't you see?"

  "So what if I saw it?"

  "Can you understand what I'm saying? Aren't you curious?"

  "There's nothing strange going on, don't disturb me while I'm sleeping, tonight I still have a date with the Persian cat next door."

  Su Wen had no choice but to leave, he was thoroughly defeated by these cute animals.

  After nine o'clock, Su Wen was overjoyed. He had finally managed to successfully kidnap a Siberian Husky and a tabby cat.

  "Come on, little ones, follow me. I'll make sure you eat and drink well. As long as I have a bite, you'll have one too."

  The name of that big cat is Xiao Hong.

  Xiao Ha, the name of the Husky.

  Xiao Hum and Xiao Ha heard this. They hastily called out a few times, and they all made declarations of loyalty.

  "Not bad, I'll leave you in charge of watching the door from now on!" Su Wen led a Husky and a tabby cat to the Treasure Inn.

  "Boss, why have you come now? We were just talking about closing up." Chen Yunhao said.

  "I just recruited two new employees for the pawnshop, and I'll introduce them to you." Su Wen pointed at Xiao Hong and Xiao Ha, "How are they? Not bad, right?"

  "Boss, are you kidding me?" Chen Yunhao cried with laughter, "What kind of employees are these dogs and cats?"

  "This is no ordinary cat and dog." Su Wen said seriously, "Look at Little Hei, it's a six-year-old stray cat that has been abandoned by its owner after catching all the mice in the house. It has been wandering around Jiangning City for five years now. Just now, I saw it fighting with a local dog over food and chose it without hesitation. And look at Little Ha, although it's a Husky, it has the ferocity of a wolf and an extremely keen sense of smell. The only drawback is that it's too picky about its food, refusing to eat anything without meat. Recently, it accidentally ate its owner's parrots, so it was abandoned again."

  "Master, what exactly do you want to say?" Chen Yunhao became even more confused.

  "Haven't you heard the names I gave them?" Su Wen said calmly, "Xiao Hong and Xiao Ha, together they're Hong Ha, Hong Ha Second General will understand, door god! From now on, they'll be in charge of guarding the Treasure Pavilion, just pay them their wages at the end of the month."

  Xiao Hum and Xiao Ha shook their heads and wagged their tails at Su Wen.

  "Boss, is this really okay?"

  "How can it not be okay?" Su Wen asked back, "I've already talked to them and they agreed. They'll be in charge of guarding the Treasure Inn, and the inn will pay their salary, which is temporarily set at 2,000 per month, including food and lodging. There's a three-month probation period, after which it'll be 3,000 per month. Oh right, I also promised to advance them one month's salary first, so you can go get them a card tomorrow."

  Chen Yunhao was stunned, he swore this was absolutely the most ridiculous thing he had ever heard.

  "Boss..."

  "In any case, we have money, just do as I say."

  "Alright, boss! But you said we'd get them a card, how are this cat and dog going to get a card? The bank won't open an account for them!"

  "This still needs me to teach, use your name to handle it!" Su Wen said matter-of-factly.

  Chen Yunhao was completely drunk, he even had the thought of committing suicide.

  Su Wen then told Xiao Hong and Xiao Ha some things, they two had a "we understand" look on their faces, only then did Su Wen feel at ease and leave.

  At 10 o'clock in the evening, Su Wen and Yi Xue were practicing their physical skills.

  "Yi Xue, I'm going home tomorrow."

  "I know you said it on Guangming Daily."

  "If you were my wife, I could take you home with me."

  "Am I your wife? Now there's no time to go back with you, Jibaozhai has been inseparable from people recently."

  "Aren't you also thinking of going home with me in your heart? If my mom sees you, she'll definitely laugh so hard that her mouth can't close."

  Yi Xue remained silent and continued to cultivate her physical skills.

  The next morning, Su Wen got up early.

  This time when they went back, there were four people in total. Tang Long drove the car and Long Yun sat in the front, while Su Wen and Lin Xinyi sat in the back.

  The car drove away from Jiangning and headed towards Su Wen's old home.
