Chapter 7 Waterfall Climbing
Li Qian was very happy to get one million from Fatty An, and sincerely invited him to do research with him.
Unfortunately, Fatty An refused on the grounds that he didn't have enough time and needed to meditate to improve his mental strength.
Of course, these were all excuses, and the fundamental reason should be that he didn't believe it.
He didn't believe that Li Qian could really research the evolution of a potential overlord-level pet.
Seeing Fatty An drive away in his flashy red sports car, Li Qian smiled.
When the research results come out, they will shock your eyes.
At the same time, in the red sports car, Fatty An glanced at the rearview mirror, and a slight arc appeared at the corner of his mouth.
Just now, the promise of giving one million was said to be a threat, but in fact it was a matter of willingness.
Just as Li Qian knew Fatty An, Fatty An also knew Li Qian very well.
Although the two were good buddies and had a close relationship, Li Qian had never had any improper intentions towards him in terms of money over the years.
Whether it is a friendship between gentlemen or a congenial relationship, the relationship between the two is really pure.
This time, it was the first time that Li Qian took the initiative to mention the money.
There are still so many demands.
Fatty An believes that Li Qian is definitely not aimless.
Whether there is any change in the family or he really wants to study the evolution method of the overlord-level pet, in short, it is definitely not nonsense.
This one million is not so much to support Li Qian's project as to invest in him.
He, An Junjie, looks stupid, but he is actually smart.
After saying goodbye to Fatty An, Li Qian did not delay and quickly entered the pet market.
According to his estimation, the only condition for the evolution of koi now is the potion that stimulates the blood of the dragon.
Because of this, he came to the pet market this time with only one purpose, to find this potion.
He went straight to the potion store.
Entering a store, he looked around and saw two salespeople inside. However, they were chatting. When they saw Li Qian coming in, they probably thought that the latter could not have any purchasing power, so they did not come to introduce anything.
Li Qian was also happy to be quiet.
He started to read by himself.
Anyway, there were introductions on the medicines.
After a rough glance, Li Qian went straight to the natural herbal medicine section.
Wild koi could evolve into green-scaled dragons, which must be due to fate that they ate some natural treasures, and what they could eat certainly did not include human synthetic medicines or pills.
Although there might be alternative medicines or pills with similar functions for such natural treasures, at this moment, he did not even know what such natural treasures were, and looking for medicines or pills was nothing but a fool's dream.
Coming to the natural herbal medicine display cabinet, Li Qian began to concentrate on watching.
There were not many herbs here, so he planned to look at them one by one.
Hanxin Grass, an elite resource, can be used to evolve pets such as Frost Spider and Snow Fox, and is priced at 35,000 yuan per plant.
Yunyan Fruit, a commander-level resource, can be used to evolve pets such as Skylark, Gale Wolf, and Golden-Feathered Goose, and is priced at 59,000 yuan per piece.
…
After looking around and finding nothing, Li Qian left the pet pharmacy.
Without delay, he walked towards the second pet pharmacy.
At this moment, a stall not far away caught his attention.
There was a large fish tank on the stall, and a wooden sign stood next to the fish tank, which read, Mutated Koi, only sold for 100,000.
Li Qian was quite curious when he saw this scene, so he walked over.
"Young man, my mutant Koi is not ordinary..." Seeing Li Qian approaching, the middle-aged male boss with a full beard opened his mouth to introduce.
Li Qian stretched out his hand, waved it, and then pointed to his eyes, "No need to introduce, I can see it myself."
He knows a truth very well.
Buying a pet is like buying an antique, you should listen less to stories, watch more, and observe more.
As the Eye of True Vision was activated, the information of the koi in the fish tank appeared in front of him.
[Name: Koi]
[Attribute: Water]
[Level: Ordinary Level 5]
[Potential: Ordinary Level 7]
[Skills: Fish Leap (Perfect), Waterfall Climbing (Proficient)]
Seeing the information of this koi, Li Qian's eyes shrank slightly.
It's really a coincidence.
The appearance of this koi just confirmed one thing... His previous guess was correct.
The evolution of koi does require the skill of waterfall climbing, and it can also learn the skill of waterfall climbing.
Although he had a plan in mind, on the surface, Li Qian showed a look of disdain, "What kind of mutant koi, panting, is just one more skill."
"Little boss, you don't know, the real value of my koi is not its skill itself, but its research value."
"You know, one more skill means one more possibility of evolution."
The bearded boss started to brag.
Although in a sense, what he said did make sense, but Li Qian knew very well that this was just a blind cat catching a dead mouse.
"Evolution, haha, this koi is a useless pet. So many breeding masters can't research it. Boss, do you think I can do it?" Li Qian also started to show off his acting skills.
"Little boss, maybe you are the one with extraordinary talent..." The bearded boss was talking nonsense and used the method of deceiving.
"Haha." Li Qian smiled faintly, "I just saw that it has a waterfall climbing skill. It just so happens that there is a rockery and flowing water in the pond at home. I guess if it can climb waterfalls, it must be very beautiful."
"Yes, yes, it is beautiful. My koi, raised in the pond, can jump out of the water and climb upstream. The ornamental value must be unique!" The bearded boss immediately echoed Li Qian's words.
Just now, he was still worried about how to find a new selling point if he couldn't use the big cake of evolution to deceive. Unexpectedly, the customer actually found it for him.
Li Qian was silent and thought for a while. After a moment, he said, "But this koi is just an ornamental fish after all. One hundred thousand is too exaggerated. I can't buy it."
"Ordinary koi is at most ten thousand yuan a piece. In this way, for its waterfall climbing skill, I can pay a little more, eighteen thousand!" Li Qian deliberately said with a pained look.
In fact, it was not intentional.
It was really painful. If you don't count the one million promised by Fatty An, all his pocket money added up did not exceed fifty thousand yuan.
"Boss, are you kidding? This is a mutant koi, at least eighty thousand!"
"Twenty thousand!"
"Seventy-five thousand!"
"Twenty-two thousand!"
"..."
Finally, after a lot of arguing, it was finally sold for forty-two thousand.
If you don't know the secret of koi evolution, this price will definitely be a loss.
But for Li Qian, it is a huge profit.
What's more, he also talked about an extra beast ball.
A beast ball costs at least several thousand.
It was developed by the Breeder Association, and is specially used to store uncontracted pets.
Its function is somewhat similar to the Poké Ball in a cartoon in the previous life.
It just doesn't have any functions such as restoring physical strength or recovering from injuries.
To put it bluntly, it is a temporary pet warehouse.
After all, some pets are very large in size. If there is no contract, it is very dangerous to appear in the city so openly.
Even a pet like Koi that is not dangerous at all, such as Ah Fu at home, is half a meter long. The one of the bearded boss is even longer, reaching 70 centimeters, which is even more inconvenient to transport.
If you carry a big fish tank and flaunt it in the city, it won't be long before the Public Security Bureau will come to your door and invite you to have tea.
