Chapter 270: When it rains it pours

Even though they had reached this agreement, it didn't mean that Lin Fan would be able to start selling pets right away.

After all, there was nothing in this store prepared for breeding pets at all.

Before he could even do anything, he had to gather some resources from the other stores and bring them over to this store.

So another few days passed before Lin Fan was able to finally start selling pets, but that meant that he only had another month and a half left to finish this mission.

He was planning on finishing this mission at the same time he finished the main mission of setting up three branch stores, which meant that he had to sell at least 20 pets a day to be able to do that.

That clearly meant that he was going to lose money doing this, but it was a good thing that he had also raised a condition that would help him with his plan.

During this time, naturally Jiang Zhi Shu wasn't idle. He continued to harass the Jiang Family through various ways and the Jiang Family had continued their sweep of the city, but they were unable to find a single thing.

That was because Jiang Zhi Shu now had the Seeker Union helping him and the Seeker Union wasn't considered the second strongest power in this city for nothing. If they wanted to keep something hidden from the Jiang Family, they definitely would be able to do so.

When Lin Fan began selling his pets, he followed the pricing of the store and made them public. At first, there really wasn't anyone who knew about these pets since Lin Fan had released them at a random time each day, but there were still people who came to check out his pet store during the day.

They were skeptical of the pets that Lin Fan sold, but unlike pet training which would require a day to see the results of, it was very easy for them to check the pets out. When they found out that the pets that Lin Fan was offering all had bloodlines that were at least in the Silver Realm, they were shocked.

Everyone wanted to buy some, but of course the people there were just there for fun and didn't really have any money. There were a few that were there as spies for some of the nobles and royals that immediately sent word back to their families about this, but they didn't make it in time.

As the store owner, Lin Fan couldn't directly sell to the Seeker Union, but he could definitely tell them when he would be stocking up on new pets.

Every time he brought out these new pets, the Seeker Union would always show up right on time and take these pets for themselves. Without fail, they would always show up just a minute after the pets were brought out, no matter what time the pets were stocked.

But of course, Lin Fan couldn't just let them take all of them since he still had to do business. So most of the time, the people sent by Qiang You to buy these pets only took 75% of all the pets.

Of course, as the first customers choosing pets, they naturally had first pick of the pets.

Lin Fan would occasionally bring out a Gold Realm or Platinum Realm bloodline pet which would always be taken by the Seeker Union experts in front of everyone's jealous eyes.

Still, by doing all this, the news of Lin Fan's shop being able to obtain high grade pets was quickly spread.

Moreover, the price in his shop was much lower than those of the pet shops that the nobles owned and they didn't have any restrictions on who could buy them.

This was both a good thing and a bad thing.

The good thing was that people who normally couldn't get high grade pets because of the monopoly of the nobles and royals now had a place where they could get high grade pets. If they were able to get one of these pets and nurture it to adulthood, they could rely on it to become an expert.

The bad thing was that this seriously cut into the business of the nobles and royals, especially since if the commoners were able to get stronger pets, they might even be able to threaten their position. Those in power naturally wanted to control the source of their power.

The one who enforced the monopoly the most was naturally the Jiang Family who were the strongest family in the city.

But even the most blind person could see that this store must have made a deal with the Seeker Union when it came to these pets.

The Seeker Union deserved their title as the second strongest power in Rock Mountain City and most of these nobles and royals weren't willing to mess with them.

So in the end, it had to be the Jiang Family who led the way.

A few days after the disturbance brought by Qiang You, there was another disturbance caused in his store.

It was said that when it rained, it poured and it definitely poured.

It was just a normal day at first and it was getting boring since it was the afternoon, right after they had already sold all their pets and filled all their pet quotas. People still weren't willing to buy the pet food from Lin Fan's store yet, so there wasn't really anything for Lin Fan to do right now.

At this time, there was someone who was dressed in fancy clothes that suddenly walked in.

One could tell immediately from his clothes that he was someone important and he even went as far as wearing a tiny crown on his head. But of course, this young man was someone who could afford to do so since he was a member of the Jiang Family.

He wasn't a branch member like Jiang You who came before, he was a true direct descendant of the Jiang Family main branch.

But this young man clearly looked like a pampered young master with the way he walked and fanned himself with his silk fan. If anything, he almost seemed like a young girl rather than a young man.

The man looked around the store with disdain after coming in and gave a soft snort, but he still came into the store and walked up to the counter.

When he was in front of the counter, he looked down at Lin Fan who sat there and said, "Hey, boy, go and call your manager for me. I have something important to discuss with him."

Him calling Lin Fan boy really wasn't strange since Lin Fan was indeed a boy. He was just eighteen and was about to turn nineteen this year.

Lin Fan looked up at this young man like he was looking at an idiot before turning away from him to go back to the web novel that he had been reading. It was a story about a man who had transmigrated into a world where he had a cooking system that tried to turn him into the God of Cooking.

But of course, after transmigrating himself, he couldn't help finding this story kind of boring since even his life seemed more interesting than this plot.

Still, there was nothing else for him to do.

The young man saw Lin Fan ignoring him and he was immediately annoyed.

This young man was indeed a pampered young master of the Jiang Family, so when had he ever been snubbed by someone of lower ranking like this? Especially someone who just worked in a small and dirty pet shop like this.

Still, the young man didn't say a thing as the follower behind him suddenly came forward to slap the table and shout, "You piece of trash, do you know who you're talking to? This is the noble Jiang Long, direct descendant and genius of the Jiang Family."

Then the follower on the other side came forward to continue sucking up, "If you don't know the Jiang Family and live in Rock Mountain City, you really should kill yourself! Do you really dare to go against Young Master Jiang and the Jiang Family?"

Lin Fan finally turned to look at them, but the way he looked at them was like he was looking at a bunch of idiots.

Finally, Lin Fan gave a sigh and said, "How can I help you?"

Jiang Long just gave a snort and didn't say a thing.

His first follower naturally understood what he meant and he came forward to point his finger at Lin Fan, "Do you think you're worthy of speaking to our Young Master Jiang? What kind of person do you think you are? You really have a high sense of self worth!"

The second follower waved his hand in Lin Fan's face and said, "Scram right now and get your manager, we don't want to bother with a little clerk like you. You better count yourself lucky that we don't cripple you right now!"

Lin Fan just had the same calm look as he said, "You're looking at the owner."

Jiang Long and both his followers looked at Lin Fan in surprise and disbelief, it was clear that they didn't believe him.

After a few seconds of being surprised, the first follower charged forward and reached his hand out to grab Lin Fan's collar as he shouted, "You really think this is funny? Bring out your manager now…"

Lin Fan just calmly stood there, letting him do this because he knew that he would never reach his collar.
