Chapter 39: Spiritual Plant
In Father Song’s heart, no matter what one did, nothing was better than a stable job.
Moreover, his identity was different now; he was a formal Law Enforcement Officer.
Before, he had no money and no ability, so he couldn’t control what Song Ranran did.
But now, he had some connections, and when the time came, he could help Song Ranran find a job, perhaps as a Clerk.
Being a Model, in Father Song’s eyes, was not a good profession, and if people found out, it would affect his image.
Song Ranran hadn’t expected Father Song to single her out.
She immediately shook her head: “Pet Beasts cost at least several million, right? Even if I form a Contract, I can’t afford to raise one! Moreover, all the money I’ve earned over the years has been spent on Clothes and Bags. My only savings of two hundred thousand were borrowed by Jiaojiao, and Jiaojiao said it’s yours.”
“What’s the use of buying those Clothes and Bags? Can you eat them?
You’re twenty-five and still don’t have a Partner. Look at who you’ll be able to marry in the future.
Tiantian is only eighteen now; by the time she’s twenty, so many people will be coming to propose.
If you don’t find a job, your income as a Model is high, but it’s a Youthful career. You’re almost thirty now, not young anymore. How much longer can you sustain this Youthful career? Now that your father has connections and can help you find a job, you just need to go to work honestly. So many people envy you.”
Father Song spoke with a tone of disappointment that he couldn’t turn his steel into gold.
If only he had forced Song Ranran to give him all her earnings back then, he might have been able to help Song Ranran form a Contract with a Pet Beast by now.
Only by becoming a Beast Tamer would one know how Powerful a Beast Tamer is.
Without becoming a Beast Tamer, one was no different from a good-for-nothing.
Song Jiaojiao was already ruined, her Brain devoured by a Fierce Beast, so she could never become a Beast Tamer in this life. Song Tiantian also didn’t like Song Jiaojiao and probably wouldn’t help her.
Song Ranran is his Eldest Daughter, his first daughter, how could he not value her?
Father Song spoke earnestly to Song Ranran again: “Don’t you like shopping? The House can’t hold everything. Becoming a Beast Tamer gives you a dedicated Pet Beast Space, where you can store many Things. Nowadays, many truck drivers are unemployed.
The drivers in our driver group are not earning well now.
Young people don’t take cars when they go out; they ride their own Pet Beasts.
Now, the authorities are going to introduce specific Pet Beast traffic laws.
Public Pet Beast transportation will also appear.
Ordinary people are now considered third-class disabled, no different from disabled individuals.
Tiantian works at the Pet Beast Center; she can help you find a cheap and good Pet Beast, costing around five hundred thousand.
You should just form a Contract with an Iron-eating Beast like mine. I can buy an extra portion of Food Rations for you from the unit. The iron blocks it excretes can be recycled and sold. Raising a Pet Beast not only doesn’t cost money but also makes money.”
“Five hundred thousand to form a Contract with an Iron-eating Beast?”
Song Ranran asked Song Tiantian in shock.
She was a little tempted.
In her profession, thirty was still considered young, but that was after spending a lot of money on maintenance.
She had already spent a lot of money on maintenance.
As far as she knew, the current price of Iron-eating Beasts was sky-high, almost ten million each. Moreover, the excrement of Iron-eating Beasts was high-grade Tea Leaves, very popular in high society.
Song Tiantian shook her head while eating: “No, now a dead Iron-eating Beast whose owner has passed away costs at least several million. But I can help you find a Sprite. Sprites don’t cost much; you just need to take it to the park to eat some Flower Dew every day.
The Flower Dew condensed by Sprites has anti-aging effects, can preserve youth, and strengthen the body.”
Speaking of which, Song Tiantian took out two Potted plants, handing one to Father Song and the other to Song Ranran.
“Dad, the one I’m giving you is Golden Silk Bamboo, a Two-star Spiritual Plant. This is a good thing, with roots, so it can be grown. It sells for millions outside. Plant it in your Space, remember to fertilize and water it. When it grows into a large patch, feed it to your Pet Beast; it can improve its Talent. You might be able to aim for Two-star Beast Tamer then.
Your Position might even increase!”
“Oh my, such a good thing, Tiantian, you’re so thoughtful, you’ve thought of everything. Having a daughter like you in this life, I’ve truly struck it rich and am blessed.”
Originally, Father Song didn’t dare to think about aiming for Two-star Beast Tamer.
Their captain was only Two-star.
But now, he dared to think about it.
If he became a Two-star Beast Tamer, his future would be limitless!
“This Spiritual Plant is Sunflower, a One Star Spiritual Plant, worth about one hundred thousand. Sister, whether you form a Contract with a Sprite or not, keep it well in your Room. It can gather Spiritual Energy and is good for your complexion and health.”
After speaking, Song Tiantian looked at Mother Song and said, “Mom, when Dad’s Golden Silk Bamboo grows into a bamboo forest, the bamboo silk it excretes after being eaten by his Pet Beast is a good thing. You can steep it in water and drink it then.
This month’s Salary is just these two Spiritual Plants; I won’t give you any more.
Also, I made these Spiritual Plants privately, so I can’t make any more. If your friends and relatives want them, tell them to buy them themselves at the Pet Beast Center or the Pet Beast Bureau.
You need to be clear about this; I’m just an Assistant. It’s okay to get a little for family, but don’t let everyone beg me.
Wanting a good Sprite for five hundred thousand is not enough. The Pet Beast Center isn’t run by me; if it were, I’d give them away for free, not charge a cent. Don’t let them come to me.”
“Tiantian, your thoughtfulness is enough. Regarding what happened before, Mom is sorry; I just hope you don’t resent me.”
As Mother Song spoke, tears began to flow uncontrollably.
She had finally seen the end of her hardship and was now living a good life with her family.
Before, her maternal relatives looked down on her, but now they visited every day, all because Song Tiantian and Father Song finally had stable Jobs.
“Tiantian, don’t worry. Dad guarantees that he absolutely won’t let those relatives from our hometown bother you. Dad knows what he’s doing. District Chief Leng’s daughter didn’t get any discounts, so why should they?
Help your sister out later and find a better Sprite for her to form a Contract with.
If she becomes a Beast Tamer, it will be easier to help her find a job.
Otherwise, without a degree and being third-class disabled, even an immortal couldn’t help her find a good job.
Don’t worry about the money; I’ll mortgage the House and lend you five hundred thousand.
Ranran is getting old; she can’t go on like this.
She starves herself every day for her figure, not eating this or that, and has become skin and bones.”
Song Ranran felt a touch of emotion upon hearing Father Song’s words.
She hadn’t expected Father Song to be so good to her, willing to mortgage the House.
