Beast Taming: I have unique beast-collecting skills

Chapter 50 The Little Millionaire

Of course we should give it a try!

Seeing that the three of them had taken their pets to play with the monkeys, Lin Su leaned against the roadside handrail and swiped the remaining scoreboard: "Beep—100 points credited."

The sound was particularly loud at night, attracting the attention of passersby and monkeys.

The monkey, still clutching the yogurt it had taken from Ruan Xuyang and the apple it had taken from Liuhe, threw them aside and jumped over, pointing its paw at the golden scoreboard.

The meaning is obvious; it wants this.

Lin Su:

She didn't do it on purpose.

That wasn't all; the monkey then set its sights on the pink geranium that Lin Su had tucked into her backpack.

Tan Xiao's eyes flickered slightly upon seeing this.

"No."

Lin Su frowned slightly and refused outright, tossing the useless small metal disc to Ruan Xuyang, who was closest to her, and said to the three of them, "I'm going down first."

The monkey tossed aside the apple it had only taken two bites of and tried to snatch it back with its paw.

"Huanhuan".

Ali had been wary of these unusual little animals for a while, and with a flash of blue light in his eyes, he sent it back to the monkey-teasing trio.

The monkey wasn't afraid and pointed at the metal piece in Ruan Xuyang's hand.

Ruan Xuyang held the small metal piece and suddenly felt it was a little hot. Should he give it to him or not?

After hesitating for a moment, he took out one of the three metal pieces he had previously bought wholesale from Tan Xiao from his pocket and handed it over, while returning the remaining two to her.

They're all the same, so it should work, right?

The monkey stared at him for two seconds, then turned to Tan Xiao, pointing to the flowers in her backpack and the metal piece that Ruan Xuyang had just returned.

Tan Xiao handed over both items.

Having caught its fill, the monkey immediately abandoned the others on the platform, climbed a tree, and ran away.

Liu He and Ruan Xuyang stood there, stunned.

What does this mean?

Ruan Xuyang looked up at the direction the monkey had fled and asked, "And then?"

Tan Xiao said casually, "Then we'll go down the mountain, and the monkey will be brought over."

Liu He: "————"

Is this outrageous operation real?

It turned out to be true.

Ruan Xuyang rubbed the large bump on the back of his head, utterly dejected: "Why am I the one who got hurt?"

That blow was so powerful that he would have fainted on the spot if he hadn't received the gratitude he owed to his pet.

Tan Xiao was also a little confused. With a complicated expression, she took the metal piece handed to her by Ruan Xuyang and stuck it on her bracelet: "Beep—100 points have been credited to your account."

Liu He summoned his pet to heal Ruan Xuyang, casually remarking, "Maybe it's random?"

"Then I'm so unlucky!" Ruan Xuyang puffed out his cheeks.

Tan Xiao calmed himself down and explained to them, "It hitting you means you've passed the test it set."

Ruan Xuyang:

"————"

What kind of test was it? How did he pass? Did he do anything special?

Lin Su was presented with a series of three questions.

When the group found her, she and Ahri were trying to teleport people. After the experiment was successful, they sped along, relying on the new moon to pray for energy, and were almost at the foot of the mountain.

"What do you want to know?" Lin Su didn't quite understand the point of these three questions. She wasn't an examiner, so how would she know?

Liu He, acting as the representative, recounted the events, then asked, "Why didn't you just give the scoreboard to that monkey?"

"Because it also wants my flowers."

Seeing that the others still didn't quite understand, Lin Su explained, "The scoreboard doesn't matter. The flower was a gift from Pink Geranium, so I definitely won't give it away."

After she finished speaking, she glanced at Ruan Xuyang, who was pretending not to exist.

The truth is quite obvious when you compare the two: Ruan Xuyang passed because she didn't give out her scoreboard, and Tan Xiao failed for the same reason.

While there was an element of coincidence involved, if she had casually given the scoreboard to Tan Xiao, she probably wouldn't have passed anyway.

Obviously, everyone is smart.

After a moment of silence, the group continued down the mountain and soon arrived at the starting point.

After confirming with Tan Xiao, Lin Su returned the bracelet: "Beep—757 points."

Staff member: "!!!"

Is this points real? Should we double-check it?

After all four participants returned their wristbands, the staff member made a phone call: "Hey? Manager, some participants have already finished the race and returned their wristbands. Their points—"

03:47 a.m.

The phone signal has been restored.

The results of the competition will be announced on the spot after the competition ends, so there are now three hours of free time. The organizers have also prepared a rest area and a small amount of food and beverages.

The others were clearly busy with work; their phones kept vibrating as they began returning calls.

Lin Su gave Ali two berries, intending to find a place to check the prices of honey and propolis from Jiale Bee Farm.

She asked the staff, who said that after winning, the bee farm would deliver the prize directly to the address she filled in every month, while the tree orchard would give her three recharge cards, which she could order online.

In her small hometown, it would be more appropriate to have the honey delivered to Tan Xiao directly after winning the award, based on the agreed price. This way, she would have extra money to spare as a reserve fund for the S-grade Moonstone.

"Huanhuan~"

Ahri happily ate the tree fruit, while Lin Su happily did the math: "Three-flower honey is 1000 per pound, and propolis is 3500 per pound. That works out to 107 million Alliance Coins per month, and 321 million per three months."

Unexpectedly, honey was so expensive—making her a millionaire.

Lin Su nestled in a corner of the rest area and sent a message to Tan Xiao, who had called from who-knows-where, asking about the matter of changing the address and sending her the honey.

I never considered the possibility of not coming in first place; that's just how confident I am.

My phone vibrated twice a short while later.

[Yes, the total for three months is 321 million, plus a task reward of 3. You can check it first. If there are no problems, the money will be transferred to you through the task center after you fill in the address.]

[For the club's physical training program, just bring the invitation I sent last time and mention my name.]

Lin Su had just replied with "OK" when her phone vibrated again; it was another message from Tan Xiao.

【Where are you? 】

After making two phone calls, Tan Xiao realized that her temporary partner was missing again. After replying to the messages, she looked around but still couldn't find her.

[A corner of the rest area]

Judging from his tone, it seemed like he needed to talk to her about something, so Lin Su sent him her location and then got up to show her competition certificate and get two bottles of milk.

Tan Xiao does indeed have something on her mind.

After taking the milk, she sat down next to Lin Su and carefully considered her tone: "Lin Su, your household registration is not in the central region, is it?"

Lin Su nodded: "I'm from Nanjiang City."

"You've probably only just begun to realize this. Have you thought about where you'd like to go to high school?"

Tan Xiao looked at the girl and continued, "We can recommend you to participate in the Ziying High School team assessment. As long as you pass, you can enroll. If you excel in your specialty during your senior year, the school will also help you transfer your household registration to the central region."

Lin Su: "————"

The question lingered in my mind again: What kind of school is this that's so amazing? It can even bypass the most famous talent points policy in the central region and directly grant residency?
