Unorthodox beast control

Chapter 269 Make a big vote!
Soon, the leader of the Earth Raccoon Clan appeared in front of the strongest one among the rock rats.

With the same leader-level strength, this Earth Rock Rat Raccoon Clan Leader is no stranger. It is the strongest clan member under the Earth Rock Rat Clan leader, and its status is not low among the Earth Rock Rat Clan.

"Lu~"

What are you talking about?

The raccoon tribe asked with kindness in their eyes, knowingly.

The powerful rock rat looked at the raccoons around him, then at the leader of the raccoons who also had a new look, and finally couldn't help but ask.

"Squeak~"

Have you obtained the new Xuanmulu?
In its view, the only thing that could make these raccoons so clean was the magical gift produced by the Xuanmu Beast Emperor - Xuanmu Lu.

However, Xuanmulu has clearly not been born for several months, so where did the raccoon clan get so many.

Could it be that...they received awards and gifts from the Xuanmu Beast Emperor for certain things?

Thinking of this in a flash, Earth Rock Rat couldn't help but have a look of envy in his eyes.

That is the Beast King, who knows how many levels above them, and even a little gift can give a low-level race like them a chance to become a Beast King.

From the changes in the eyes of the earth and rock rat, he guessed what the other party was thinking. A smile flashed in the eyes of the earth raccoon leader, and he sighed at the same time.

Although it received care at the Spark Nursing Home and solved the race's care problem, it still hopes that Xuanmu Beast Emperor can recover as soon as possible.

This is also the common wish of countless extraordinary creatures in Yaomu Domain.

After all, they are all protected by the sky-high black trees.

Shaking his head to get rid of the chaotic thoughts, the leader of the Earth Raccoon Clan looked at his old friend in front of him and smiled.

"Lu~"

It's not Xuanmulu, it's human beings who wash and protect us.

"squeak?!"

Humanity? !
Hearing the answer from the leader of the Earth Raccoon Clan, the Rock Rat's eyes widened with a bit of surprise in his eyes.

This surprise was due to the unexpected answer, but more importantly, it was due to the change in the leader of the Earth Raccoon Clan.

Unlike the ground raccoons, the Earth Rock Rat clan is a race of extraordinary creatures native to the Demonic Wood Territory. They had already lived here when the Sky Black Tree occupied this territory.

After so many years, they have long been accustomed to the existence of humans, and their relationship with humans is quite harmonious. They even occasionally entrust outstanding little guys in the clan to human beastmasters for contracts.

Therefore, every time they see the raccoon leader leading his tribe away from humans intentionally or unintentionally, they feel quite puzzled.

And now, this old guy who has always been unwilling to contact humans has suddenly changed?
The elder of the Earth Raccoon Tribe blushed after seeing what he was thinking in the rock rat's surprised and strange eyes. Fortunately, its gray fur was enough to cover up this strangeness, making it seem to change the subject calmly.

"Lu~"

Do you want to know where that foster care shop is?
"Squeak~"

tell me!
The Earth Rock Rat nodded heavily, and then his thoughts returned to another point that surprised him.

Those human care in Yaomu City actually have such an effect?
In his opinion, the cleaning effect of these raccoons in front of him is even better than using Xuanmu Dew.

In the past, humans in Yaomu City did not have this kind of technology in its mind.

"Lu~"

That place is at…

The leader of the Earth Raccoon Clan made some gestures and quickly let the Rock Rat, who had been to the city much more often than him, understand the specific location of the Starfire Nursing Shop.

"squeak!"

"Squeak!"

Several other earth and rock rats on the side secretly noted this location, and they also looked extremely excited.

Unlike ground raccoons, they are earth and rock rats. Because they often burrow underground, they easily leave dirt on their bodies that cannot be resolved even with earth power, so they have a greater need for cleaning and care.

After several months of no care, some of the rock rats in the group began to dislike drilling holes.

However, drilling holes is also a part of their practice to hone themselves and become stronger.

Such desolation is unacceptable!
Therefore, if there is a care that can replace Xuanmulu, they can't wait to put on their wings and go there immediately!
Looking at the eager rock rat, a smile appeared in the eyes of the earth raccoon leader.

The leader of the Di Huan Xiong Clan always felt a bit grateful for Xu Ran's protection for his clan.

What you do now should be able to repay the other party, right?

Surprised, the one with the highest status among the earth and rock rats suddenly calmed down.

A question came to mind.

Xuanmu Dew is a resource produced by the Beast Emperor. Even if it is not considered precious because of its large amount, it is enough to be given to all the creatures in the Yaomu Domain for free, but it is still the power of the Beast Emperor level.

Xuanmu Dew is free, it is a gift from the Beast Emperor, but the humans in Yaomu City are very good at doing business.

A cleanser comparable to Xuanmulu...it should be very expensive, right?

Thinking of this, the earth rock rat couldn't help but glance at the raccoon clan, and felt a little calmer.

The wealth of the earth and rock rat clan is not as good as that of the earth raccoon, which can use the hidden soil, but it is not much different. The earth raccoon can clean and protect the entire clan, and the price of this care should be something they can afford.

However, I still have to ask.

"squeak?"

How much does that human care cost?

"chatter!"

Just three aphrodisiac stones!
Before the leader of the raccoon clan could speak, a nearby raccoon came up excitedly and interjected while twisting its big tail as fluffy as a feather duster.

Three pyroxene stones?
The eyes of several members of the Earth Rock Rat clan lit up.

For extraordinary earth creatures like them, it is not difficult to raise resources such as pyroxene, and this is not a precious resource.

Three aphrodisiac stones can be used by one tribesman to wash and protect them?

The quick-reacting rock rats have already begun to break off their paws to calculate how many pyroxene stones they need for the care of their entire clan.

Before they could figure it out, the leader of the raccoon clan glared at the interjecting raccoon, and then shook his head slightly.

"Lu~"

Don't listen to it!The price of skin care is not three pieces of pyroxene.

Eh?
The rock rats, who had been excited just now, seemed to have been splashed with cold water after hearing the words of the raccoon leader, and suddenly calmed down.

That's right...how can a cleaning and protection product that is comparable to a valuable resource like Xuanmulu be equivalent to the pyroxene stone that is rarely used in their cultivation?

That raccoon must be joking, the real price will be more expensive...

Before the earth and rock rats could ask, the leader of the earth raccoon clan shook his head slightly and spoke again.

"Lu~lulu~"

The care is based on body size. We are medium-sized, and you can only be considered small, so the price of your care is the resource corresponding to 7 beast master points~
Eh?
Hearing this, the people of the Earth Rock Rat Tribe were stunned again.

Because they often deal with humans, they are no strangers to beast master points. In fact, they often use this special equivalent when exchanging resources with humans.

Three aphrodisiac stones, converted into beast master points, is 27.

And they only need seven beast master points to be protected by a clansman? !

So to say…

With a piece of pyroxene stone, is there even a surplus? !

Thinking of this, the eyes of the people of the Earth Rock Rat Tribe shone completely, and their faces were full of surprises.

Is this price too cheap? !
"Squeak~"

Without further ado, I’m leaving first!
No longer interested in staying in the raccoon's territory, the strong man from the rock rat clan greeted the leader of the raccoon clan and turned around to leave with his tribe.

Watching their departing figures, the Earth Raccoon Clan leader’s eyes were full of smiles, but he also did not forget to give a reminder.

"Lu~"

That store has closed, so I can’t go there until tomorrow morning!
-
"A big one?"

Hearing Liu Fengyun's words, Xu Ran had a bit of surprise on his face.

The boss Liu in front of him looked gentle and elegant, but his words were a bit gangster.

"Boss Liu said that he would do something big, what exactly did he mean?" Xu Ran asked with interest.

Deep down, he is not a peaceful person.

If what the other party said was to his liking, he wouldn't mind participating.

"Is this..." Liu Fengyun smiled, paused slightly, and instead of answering directly, he asked rhetorically.

"I saw that Boss Xu was accompanied by the beast master's client when he was doing the cleaning today, so there is nothing that cannot be seen during the cleaning process?"

"Yes." Xu Ran nodded slightly.

The techniques he learned from the system cannot be learned by simply looking at them. As for the formulas of the bath soaps, they are also very different, and there is no way to learn anything by just looking at them.

Therefore, he can safely let others watch the entire cleaning process.

"The same is true for our Fengyun Nursing Home." Liu Fengyun had a happy smile on his face, as if he had met a close friend. "I think the most valuable thing about truly excellent care is the experience of care, not just some superficial care. You can steal something from your master.”

"It's not just you and me, but most of the other people who were invited to Yaomu City to run foster care shops are also like this." Liu Fengyun paused slightly, "In comparison, the local foster care shops are a bit... haha."

He shook his head and chuckled, "I still remember that after the business of our Fengyun foster care shop gradually improved, these local colleagues came to our shop to spy on us."

"But after they launched the cleaning service, they did not accept guests to accompany them to do the cleaning, and turned away all those who wanted to see it." Liu Fengyun shook his head slightly, "It's really petty to be so self-conscious."

"Is that so..." Xu Ran's expression became a little weird, "I thought Huanyu Nursing Home was just an exception."

"Don't talk about that." Liu Fengyun smiled, "Boss Xu just asked me how I wanted to do something big."

“All we, the foster care shops from out of town, want is to establish a foothold in the local area and have enough customers.”

"So, naturally, we want more people to know about our store and the specifics of our cleaning and care services." Liu Fengyun's eyes flashed with anticipation, "I want to... call everyone together for a public cleaning and care display!"

"Okay!" Xu Ran's eyes lit up and he nodded quickly.

Liu Fengyun had something that spoke to his heart, which was to let more people know about their store.

This coincides with the need to increase the visibility of system tasks.

As for the public cleaning and care demonstration, you can roughly think of the content just by listening to it.

Show the entire process of washing and care in front of everyone, so that they can clearly see the comparison of extraordinary creatures before and after washing and care.

There is no more intuitive and engaging method than this.

"Boss Liu, do you have more specific ideas? When and where will it be done?" Xu Ran asked with anticipation, "Our Xinghuo Nursing Home is participating!"

"Uh..." Liu Fengyun had a look of helplessness on his face.

When he came to Xu Ran, he guessed that Xu Ran would agree to this suggestion.

But Xu Ran was so proactive and enthusiastic that he was completely unexpected.

"Don't worry, Boss Xu. In fact, this is just an idea I just had today." His face looked a little embarrassed, "I came to you first, just to ask for advice."

"Since you have no problem, Boss Xu, then I will take the lead and negotiate with other foster care stores from other places to see which stores will participate and then determine the specific time... What do you think?"

"Okay." Xu Ran nodded, then suddenly thought of something and added, "But it's best to complete it within half a month."

"I signed up for the Battle of Ten Thousand Races, but I may not be available in half a month."

"War of all races?" An obvious look of surprise appeared on Liu Fengyun's face, and he almost thought he heard wrongly.

Then, Liu Fengyun burst out laughing when he saw the three little ones behind Xu Ran, "It seems that in addition to being a foster care shop owner who is proficient in care and care, Boss Xu is also a talented beast master."

"At that time, I will be there to cheer for Boss Xu." Liu Fengyun made a little joke, and then returned to the topic, "I will definitely not use it for half a month. Boss Xu can rest assured."

"As for the specific time, I will try to confirm it by this time tomorrow, and I will inform Boss Xu then." "Okay, thank you for your hard work, Boss Liu." Xu Ran nodded.

After watching the other party leave, Xu Ran returned to the store with the three little ones.

Close the door, enjoy dinner, meditate and practice.

Silent all night.

When Xu Ran slowly woke up from meditation and slowly opened his eyes, it was already the morning of the second day.

Seeing the morning light falling beside the bed falling on the three little ones sleeping together, covering them with a light golden sheen, Xu Ran couldn't help but take out his phone to record the scene.

Awakened by the sound of the shutter, the three little ones opened their eyes in a daze, and gradually woke up after seeing Xu Ran getting up.

"It seems you slept well." Xu Ran said with a smile, then changed his clothes and walked to the bathroom, "Come and wash up, get ready for breakfast!"

This time, the three little ones were completely awake.

breakfast!

Ducking!

Soon, one person and three pets were sitting around in the empty foster care area on the second floor.

Xu Ran used the system's ability to change the terrain to build a dining table out of thin air. He slowly ate the rice rolls made by himself. On both sides of him and opposite him sat three little ones who were also enjoying the food.

"The foster care area is still a bit empty." After another mouthful of rice rolls, Xu Ran looked at the empty terrain around him and shook his head helplessly, "I have been in Yaomu City for two days, and it seems that all the guests are here for care."

“I don’t know when the first foster resident will be available.”

"Meow~" (I think it should be soon.)
Ziyun raised his head from the wide-mouthed bowl, wiped the remaining soup around his mouth with his paw, then licked his paw slowly and spoke calmly.

"Xi Lv~" (The more people who care for the baby, the more people who will take care of it will gradually increase.)
Xingchen neighed and expressed his point of view.

"Exactly?" (But the ones being cared for now seem to be wild extraordinary creatures. They shouldn't have any need for foster care, right?)
Cancan finished the last food on the plate with an "ouch" and spoke after hearing the words.

"What you said makes sense." Xu Ran touched his chin and said with a smile, "But the ones I used to protect were all extraordinary creatures, so it was an accident."

"Now that all the raccoons have been cared for, it's time for some normal guests to come." Xu Ran paused slightly, "With yesterday's gambling battle, the beastmaster guests who are interested in the Spark Nursing Home should be here today. Come."

"As long as they feel the service provided by Xinghuo Nursing Home, I believe there will be customers who will take the initiative to recommend our shop to their surroundings, so that we will get more and more customers."

"As long as there are enough customers, there will always be customers who want to try services other than washing and nursing, which will open up the situation." Xu Ran smiled and quickly packed away the tableware and bowls on the table, "Let's go, let's go building."

Quickly taking the elevator downstairs, Xu Ran quickly walked to the store door, pushed the store door open while expecting a smile, "I wonder who the first customer will be today?"

The next moment, after seeing the situation outside the store clearly, the smile on Xu Ran's face froze slightly.

Is this awkward?
Outside the store, there were not as many people as he expected.

Instead, it was overrun with rats.

Xu Ran's expression gradually became dull as he looked at the earth and rock rats, which were covered with gray rock scales and were small in size but not weak at all.

Who can tell him what is going on? !

"Squeak~"

"Squeak~~"

After seeing Xu Ran open the door, the rock rats seemed very happy. They kept shouting and jumping around and gesticulating in front of Xu Ran. They looked a little more honest and honest, not like ferocious extraordinary creatures at all.

but…

"I don't understand..." Xu Ran rubbed his eyebrows, "Don't speak at the same time, come one by one!"

After understanding Xu Ran's words, the group of earth and rock rats quickly quieted down. They neatly divided into two to make way for a path.

At the other end of the road, two figures quickly came towards Xu Ran.

One of them is a rock rat that is much larger than the other rock rats and is also more powerful than the other rock rats.

As for the other...

Looking at the friendly and honest leader of the Earth Raccoon Clan, Xu Ran seemed to have guessed the origin of these rock rats.

"Lu~"

Good morning!
The leader of the Dihuxiong clan greeted Xu Ran warmly.

"Ah ha ha ha... Good morning." After guessing what the other person meant through his posture and expression, Xu Ran smiled helplessly and greeted him in the same way.

It seems that what he said during breakfast just now has come true.

After experiencing the service of Xinghuo Nursing Home, the guests took the initiative to recommend it to other guests around them.

It's just that...these guests are not human beings.

Looking at the rock rats, which were more numerous than the ground raccoons, Xu Ran sighed silently.

Although the earth rock rat is a small extraordinary creature, the cleaning time will be shorter.

But so many of them are enough to keep him busy for a whole day.

"Come on, come on!" Xu Ran waved to the rock rats resignedly, "Line up one by one and come in to wash!"

"Squeak~" (I come first!)

The leader of the Earth Rock Rat, who came hand in hand with the leader of the Earth Raccoon Clan, looked at the other members of his clan who were eager to try with threatening eyes, then grinned excitedly and followed Xu Ran into the nursing room.

Take a shower, take a shower!

Shushu, I need to take a good bath today!

"Lie here."

In the nursing room, Xu Ran couldn't help but burst into laughter as he looked at the expectant leader of the Earth Rock Rat clan.

Compared with the leader of the raccoon clan, this guy is completely two extremes.

This is true even for systematic reviews.

[Racial name: Rock rat
Attribute: Soil
Growth level: leadership level
body size: small

Washing and care needs: ★★★★★

Evaluation: A guy who is completely unsuspecting of human beings and is extremely eager to take care of himself. He already feels the pleasure before starting to take care of himself. There is no challenge at all. It’s really boring~]

"Wait for me, I'll make some preparations." After observing the situation of the leader of the Earth Rock Rat clan, Xu Ran turned around and started working on the workbench.

"Squeak~"

The leader of the Earth Rock Rat clan nodded obediently and lay motionless on the washing table with a silly smile on his face.

As the system reviews said, it seems to feel pleasure even before washing and care begins.

Xu Ran did not let the leader of the Earth Rock Rat clan wait too long, and quickly made all the preparations before washing and caring, and soon had a tool kit in his hand.

He took out an iron stick with a sharp front end and a flat back end and a lightweight hammer. He walked up to the leader of the Earth Rock Rat clan, pressed the sharp front end of the iron stick against the gap between his rock scales, and then used the small hammer to Gently hit the back end of the iron sign.

"Du~"

Accompanied by a dull but somewhat crisp sound, the dirt deposited in the gaps between the rock scales, which could not be resolved by the earth element, shattered, and the splashed debris fell on both sides of the gap.

The body of the leader of the Earth Rock Rat clan also started to tremble slightly at the same moment.

With their original body structure, there should not be gaps between the rock scales that can hide dirt and evil.

It is the continuous accumulation of these irresolvable dirt that opens the gaps between the rock scales, allowing more dirt to be deposited, and ultimately forms a vicious cycle, directly exposing the sensitive body under the scales of the soil rock rat.

As a result, every time it enters the soil, it is an uncomfortable experience for the rock rat.

Now, as Xu Ran gently tapped the small hammer in his hand, the tapping sound that seemed to reverberate directly inside his skull made the leader of the Earth Rock Rat tribe suddenly feel an indescribable numbness all over his body.

The strange feeling of electric current passing through the side quickly came from the position of the iron sign, and the tremor broke through the hard rock scales and sensitive body, reaching the deepest part.

The eyes of the leader of the Earth Rock Rat clan were a little more erratic. He raised his head slightly unconsciously and felt the dazzling light above his eyes. Everything around him seemed to be blurred.

It felt that its body was becoming lighter under the gentle hammering, and the slightly numb feeling of comfort continued to accumulate in the body, and finally turned into an extremely unbearable itch.

"Du~"

Xu Ran's last blow fell at this moment.

As all the dirt hidden in the gaps between the rock scales was shattered, all the scales were tightly stuck together at this moment.

The extremely unbearable itch also disappeared at the same time. The feeling of comfort and slight emptiness, accompanied by the rock scales that tightly covered the whole body, emerged deep in the heart of the leader of the Earth Rock Rat.

Its eyes became more and more blurred.

A strange and slightly distorted tone was forced out of its tightly-bitten mouth, echoing throughout the entire bathroom.

"Squeak~~~"
-
“Welcome next time~”

At the entrance of the Xinghuo Nursing Store, Xu Ran waved goodbye to the group of earth and rock rats who returned satisfied, with a hint of exhaustion in his eyes that could not be concealed.

After a whole day, washing and caring for the same race is not only a physical task, but also a test of spirit and patience.

Fortunately, these rock rats, which had not received care for a long time, gave him enough pleasant feedback.

Although there is still no pleasure value recorded, their reactions during washing and care are also a great encouragement to Xu Ran.

only…

"If we continue like this, I don't know if it will take more than a year or two to achieve the popularity target..." Xu Ran couldn't help but shook his head and sighed, and opened the system task.

[Main mission 4: Spreading branches and leaves

Task description: Ask the host to successfully open branches in four different secondary towns. The branch's popularity reaches more than 50%, which is regarded as a successful opening. This task is a phased task, and the task rewards will be distributed in stages.

Mission reward: System skill upgrade token x1, system upgrade experience +600]

[Task at the current stage: Successfully open branches in two different secondary towns.

Mission Progress: 1/2
Capture Cloud City (Completed)
Yaomu City (2.3/50)

Stage task reward: System clerk x3]

Ok?
Looking at the lines of text in front of him, Xu Ran's expression suddenly froze.

After entering Yaomu City and opening a second foster care shop in a secondary town, the popularity progress can be displayed normally again?

He has not opened the mission interface in the past few days, but he only saw it now.

However, after taking a closer look at the progress, Xu Ran's expression became surprised.

actually...

Already past two percent? !
Xu Ran knew how easy it was to increase his reputation in Jieyun City.

At the very beginning, the growth in popularity can be described as slow, with popularity remaining below 1% for several days in a row.

After all, the popularity corresponds to the huge population base of Xieyun City.

Both are second-level important towns. Although Yaomu City is not as strong as Xieyun City, its population base is not inferior at all. It is even larger than Xieyun City because of the peaceful surrounding environment.

Under such circumstances, the popularity unexpectedly exceeded [-]%.

A thoughtful look appeared on Xu Ran's face.

He was thinking back on the events that the store had experienced in the past few days, which were more likely to increase its reputation.

Is it a bet with Huanyu Nursing Home?

Sounds reasonable, but probably not.

If the predictions were correct, Huanyu Nursing Home had already taken a cold approach. Although there were people who knew about the bet, it was impossible for [-]% of them to reach Yaomu City.

So what other factors are there?
As he was thinking about it, Xu Ran's expression suddenly froze.

not…

Wild supernatural creatures, right? !
