Chapter 748: Joanna’s Charm

Su Ping summoned Joanna and asked her to take the Green Alligator away.

The blonde haired Joanna attracted Filius’s attention the moment she showed up. He gazed at her with widened eyes.

Joanna had an indifferent demeanor. The godly pressure she emitted rendered the Green Alligator too scared to resist. She simply nodded at Su Ping without saying a word.

Filius snapped out of his mesmerized state long after Joanna returned to the pet room. The other customers in the shop were also too stunned to speak.

Fantastic!

Not the pet, but her!

They had never seen such a gorgeous woman before. Not even Alice—the most popular star on Rhea—was as naturally impeccable as Joanna.

How could there be such an extraordinary woman in this world?

“Damn!”

“S-She is really beautiful!”

“Is she the boss’s wife? Or is she the actual boss here?”

The customers whispered to each other in shock. The thought of her being an employee never crossed their minds; she could make tons of money with nothing but her face!

Looks were very important in the entire universe!

Everybody looked at Su Ping with obvious jealousy. If she wasn’t the boss, she could only be the boss’s wife, which was even more heartbreaking!

She deserves better!

Filius, who had finally realized his pet had been taken away, couldn’t help but ask Su Ping, “B—Boss, is she your wife?”

He suddenly envied his Green Alligator, wishing that Joanna had also taken him away just then.

“No.”

Su Ping was never interested in talking about stuff unrelated to his business. He said, “The training price is a hundred million per session. Make the payment.”

“A hundred million?”

Filius shivered and was quickly sobered up. He looked at Su Ping in shock.

A hundred million wasn’t too much for him, but it seemed to be too high a price for one day of training.

That was also the price for just one pet.

He could make a billion every day if he received ten customers, and thirty billion in a month!

That was a horrifying revenue for a pet shop. Even the famous interstellar chains could only achieve such a mind boggling income when all the branches were counted. None of the branches could earn a hundred billion in a month, unless they were located in the best areas and supervised by ultra trainers!

“Why? You don’t have the money?” Su Ping frowned at Filius’s reaction. The man had an Ocean State level anyway, and would have been seen as a Legendary warrior on the Blue Planet.

Every Legendary warrior on the Blue Planet had tens of billions to their name.

“Well… I have the money. But, isn’t the price a bit…”

Filius was quite reluctant. A hundred million per day was too big an expense for the declining Moreno family. He had learned to be thrifty whenever he could.

“You think it’s too expensive?” Su Ping raised his eyebrows and said indifferently, “This is too cheap for the improvement the training will produce! Do you think you can go anywhere and pay a hundred million to have your pet learn a new skill?”

He was quite straightforward.

He was also confident of his statement. The prices set by the system were too low. He knew full well that the training in his shop was the cheapest for the effects it gave.

Other pet shops would require customers to invest three to five hundred million for the same effect in a longer time!

Filius was stunned, not expecting Su Ping to act this harshly towards a customer.

I’m a customer!

The customer is king! Do you know what king means?

“Boss, I don’t mind paying if the training is really as effective as you claim, but… Can I see the result of the training first? How about I make a down payment for now?” proposed Filius.

Even though Su Ping’s attitude wasn’t likable, he didn’t want to quit negotiating just yet.

After all, the Pet Contest was about to take place.

The blond girl he saw in Su Ping’s shop wasn’t Su Ping’s wife, so she very likely was the real owner of the shop, or maybe Su Ping’s sister.

If she was Su Ping’s sister, then Su Ping could eventually become his brother-in-law!

Filius was determined to spend more money in that shop for her alone, to hopefully become a VIP so that he could hang around with her more often!

“You want to pay the rest later?”

Su Ping looked at the young man—he was quite handsome and he did seem to be of a reasonably high status. He didn’t expect him to be that petty.

“This shop only accepts full payments; don’t come if you don’t have money. You can leave with your pet right now if you think it’s too expensive!” declared Su Ping coldly.

Su Ping had at first thought that the guy was rich—the latter had reported his family name and all—but he turned out to be poor.

Even if he wasn’t poor, he was still extremely petty.

An Ocean State warrior reluctant to pay a hundred million for his pet training. Did he even deserve to be a battle pet warrior?

“D-Don’t,” Filius quickly cried when Su Ping was about to summon his pet.

It would be too humiliating!

The dazzling lady had taken his pet a moment earlier.

What would she think of him if Su Ping asked her to take the pet out?

He was quite embarrassed at the mere thought of such a picture.

“It’s just a hundred million, I can pay that. I’m just used to paying by installments in other places.” Filius managed to smile although he was dissatisfied with Su Ping. After all, it was quite natural to make a down payment first and then pay the rest when the training was over!

However, Su Ping was being too bossy, simply demanding to be paid in full!

Nevertheless, he could think about the blond woman he was determined to approach and pursue. It was clearly not a good idea to offend Su Ping at this moment.

“Make the payment then,” said Su Ping expressionlessly.

Filius’s lips twitched when he saw Su Ping’s face. He was spending money as a customer, but it almost seemed that he owed Su Ping a sizable debt. Who was the customer and the king here!

That being said, he held himself back for the beautiful woman’s sake.

Aside from his parents, the things a man could never let go of were battle pets and beautiful women.

Filius almost considered himself to be a loyal man, but he had just fallen in love with another woman moments earlier!

Ding!

Su Ping received the transfer notification but remained cold. Being a fellow man, he could easily tell what was on Filius’ mind.

It was inevitable that a beautiful clerk such as Joanna would be attractive to the customers.

It was also one of the benefits of hiring her as his employee.

He couldn’t stop Joanna from releasing her charm.

Still, he could only say that the guy was overthinking.

Joanna had seen countless experts and unparalleled geniuses in the Archean Divinity. She was too proud to accept those people.

Besides, being a god, she considered humans as nothing but ants. Who would bother paying attention to ants?

Even if that ant was spending money in the shop to show off wealth, it was a matter not worth mentioning to her, at all!

But Su Ping would certainly not point that out. Joanna was making contributions as an employee by attracting customers such as that guy.

“I can only say goodbye if there’s nothing else I can help you with. Come fetch your pet tomorrow,” said Su Ping casually.

“Okay.”

Filius nodded. Then, he thought of something and said, “Boss, aren’t you forgetting the receipt?”

“This shop doesn’t hand out receipts. I’ll recognize you and give you your pet when you return,” said Su Ping.

Filius was dumbfounded.

No receipt? What if you deny that you took my pet?

“Boss, we’re talking about a hundred million here. Please, at least write me a note,” Filius couldn’t help but say.

“You think I’ll trick you for a mere hundred million? You can always come back here. My shop is not going anywhere!” Su Ping rolled his eyes.

The system never gave receipts. He gave receipts on the Blue Planet because he was familiar with the paperwork and could make counterfeits.

Still, he preferred not wasting his time applying for receipts from the tax bureau in that place!

Filius wanted to say something, but then he held back.

It didn’t make sense that no receipts would be given!

However, he had already handed out the money, and Su Ping’s shop was right there, unlikely to disappear.

So, he thought for a moment and decided to let it go. He might leave a bad impression if the beautiful woman suddenly came out and saw that he was acting pettily.

“Well, it’s just another habit that I’ve developed in other shops. Never mind.” Filius coughed and chuckled again.

He would play the generous part since he was unable to get a receipt.

Su Ping said without even raising his eyes, “The door’s over there.”

Filius felt like vomiting blood, as the boss’s attitude was almost insufferable!

He secretly gritted his teeth, determined to argue with Su Ping right in front of the gorgeous woman the next day if the training turned out to be unsatisfactory!

Then, he wouldn’t demand any compensation; he would eventually let it go, to show that he was handsome and forgiving!

When was a man most handsome? When he didn’t care about money!

He sneered at the thought, then left.

Su Ping couldn’t care less about what the latter thought. He looked at the rest of the customers and asked, “Do you need anything?”

The three customers looked at each other in bewilderment. They were also battle pet warriors too, but unlike Filius, they didn’t belong to any major families. While the Moreno family behind Filius was declining in Woffett, it was still very powerful.

Only a descendant from such a family could afford pursuing a hot girl with a hundred million.

As for them, they would rather save their money and buy the Vast Sky Thunderous Dragons the next day.

Considering the flow of the day’s events, many customers would definitely join the bidding. They would regret it if someone else beat them to the punch because they were short by several hundred million!

Soon after, the three customers said goodbye to Su Ping and promised that they would be there the next day.

Su Ping saw them out. Right when he was about to shut the door, more customers showed up to enquire about the Vast Sky Thunderous Dragons.

They also had to leave after learning that the dragons wouldn’t be available until the next day.

Once he saw that there were no more customers, Su Ping simply closed the shop for the day.

The main goal was certainly not to train Filius’ pet. He was considering how to upgrade the services in his shop, plus strengthening the Little Skeleton and his other pets.

He was also planning to make use of the Pet Aptitude Book he had just acquired.

King-level battle pets ranging from Ocean to Fate State can only go through regular training. To unlock the professional training option I have to develop an Ocean State battle pet with high aptitude first!

However, to develop a high aptitude battle pet is difficult and time-consuming!

It would be a huge waste of time if I were to develop a customer’s pet, unless they paid enough money. It’ll be much better if I can improve the Little Skeleton and my other pets to reach the Ocean State and then train them. After all, I won’t suffer any losses no matter how much I invest on my own pets.
