Young Master and His Super Inferno Lover

8. Pets They Had Never Seen

Translator: Antonia

Mu Yunshen’s mother used to run this pet store. They bought this house years ago. It wasn’t spacious but had a good layout, so Yun Yanshi decided to open a pet shop.

Actually, the previous owner of this house also used it as a pet shop. Since Planet Marka was famous for its Fennec Fox, there were many pet shops on the planet. Almost every pet shop had Fennec Fox for sale. Tourists who came here would always bring a few back. Pet shops on Marka were popular and could make profit. That was why Yun Yanshi came up with the idea.

After Mu Yunshen gave birth to the child, Yun Yanshi decided to concentrate on taking care of the baby at home, so she handed the pet store to him. In the past four years, Mu Yunshen used his mother’s channel and still sold pets from Planet Marka. The business was okay. He made money every month, but just enough to provide for him and the kid.

Only in the past two years did Mu Yunshen decide to change the business because he felt that he could not continue like this. The child was growing up and the expenses would be growing in the future. He had to work harder to make more money in order to support the family.

The pet store wasn’t big and there weren’t many pets inside. There were only four pets in four different species. Each pet was put in a cage placed on a white carved stone platform. Looking at the elegant platforms and the clean cages, one could tell that these pets were well taken care of.

“What pets are these? Why have I never seen them before? Newly found species?” Deron looked around and couldn’t help asking.

As a young master, even if he didn’t like pets, he shouldn’t have been so ignorant that he had never seen any of these in the shop. There were merely four pets, but he didn’t know any one of them. What a slap in the face.

Mu Yunshen went forward and introduced, “Indeed, they are new species. These pets are all intelligent and smarter than a Fennec Fox.”

He wanted to add that they were also “docile and obedient”, but he swallowed it back, for he really could not guarantee this. Besides, what he sold here were not just pets.

“Smarter than a Fennec Fox? You must be kidding. Fennec Fox is considered one of the most intelligent pets in the Empire. Why haven’t I heard of any pets that are smarter?” Lu Zhenghao retorted. He still held hostility towards Mu Yunshen.

“That you’ve never heard of them before doesn’t mean they don’t exist,” Mu Yunshen replied in an indifferent tone.

In fact, this was also a way he came up with to make money. It was normal for his customers not to know these pets, because they were bought from the Gate of Hell. Of course, his customers had never seen them in this world. What Mu Yunshen wanted to do was to make his business exclusive to extreme.

To be honest, ever since he decided to sell pets from the Demon World, the business had become quieter than before. It would be a good year if he could sell two of these pets. In fact, he had only sold one pet in last year. However, Mu Yunshen made even more money with that one order than all the money he had earned in the previous year, which was why he was not in a hurry at all. He was running his pet shop like an antique shop. He seldom make business, but once he sold a pet, the profit he earned would be enough to cover the living expense for three years.

It wasn’t that his pets were not easy to sell, or that the customers didn’t like his pets. On the contrary, people liked his pets too much. Even if they were expensive, there were still many who wanted to have one. But there was a problem here. Even if a customer wanted to buy one, it depended on whether the pet was willing to go with that customer. If the pet didn’t like that person and didn’t want to go with him, there was no deal. That was the sad story behind selling pets from the Demon World. It was harder than matchmaking between men and women. Those pets were picky, very picky.

Therefore, in the past two years, Mu Yunshen had only sold one pet.

“Wow, this one is cute,” Maya’s eyes suddenly shone as she shouted. She wanted to have a Fennec Fox, but before she saw one, she grew more interested in other pets.

“Sir, what pet is this? Can you tell me about it?” Maya turned around and asked Mu Yunshen.

Mu Yunshen looked over and saw a snow-white animal that was only the size of a mature cat. It was slender and beautiful, with its ears and tail in the shape of flames. There was a strand of long hair on its head, which was very cute. The hair on its ears, tail, and elbows were all icy blue and white. It had the same eye color, as clear and beautiful as crystal. It even had long eyelashes as if it had put on eyeshadow. If it could turn into a human, no doubt, it would be a great beauty.

Every girl would fall in love with such a beautiful little thing. However, it wasn’t enough for the girl to like it. It depended on whether it liked the girl.

As soon as Mu Yunshen saw the pet in the cage, he felt headache. Another customer wanted this one?

“This is an Iceflame Fox,” Mu Yunshen said briefly without any further introduction, for he saw that the Iceflame Fox was lying in the cage without even batting its eyelids, and he knew that it was not interested in this customer.

“You call this an introduction? Do you know how to introduce a pet properly? Tell us about its breed, preference, age, food, intelligence, lineage, whether it has a bloodline certificate. Don’t you know that?” Lu Zhenghao started to complain again.

“You don’t need these because you won’t find a third Iceflame Fox in the entire Empire,” Mu Yunshen said coldly.

“Are you saying that only your store has this pet?” Lu Zhenghao sneered.

“That’s right, that’s the truth,” Mu Yunshen answered.

“Why do you say I can’t find a third one? What happened to the first one?” Maya was suddenly intrigued.

“The first one has been sold,” Mu Yunshen answered.

“That’s great. I want this one. I want to have a different pet from others. This Iceflame Fox is so beautiful, I like it very much,” Maya said as she turned to Deron.

Deron nodded. He didn’t want to continue shopping, “How much is it?”

As soon as Lu Zhenghao heard Deron ask the price, he smiled and walked forward with a flattering tone, “Master Deron, let me pay for Miss Maya’s gift.”

Then he turned to Mu Yunshen and his smile disappeared, “How much is this pet?”

“300,000 star coins, but…”

“300,000? This is way too much! Do you know how much a pure Fennec Fox cost? 30,000 can get you a Fennec Fox with a noble lineage and a bloodline certificate. How come yours is worth 300,000?” Lu Zhenghao could not help but call out. Even if he wanted to buy a pet to please someone, he was not a spendthrift waiting to be slaughtered.

The other three were also shocked when they heard the price.

Mu Yunshen was used to this kind of reaction. Many people were just like them when they heard the price he offered.

Mu Yunshen had no choice but to sell it at such a high price since it was the way he made a living. This Iceflame Fox was sold for three gold coins in the Demon World, which was equivalent to 30,000 star coins here. Since the cost of an Iceflame Fox was so high, he had to set a higher price for this exquisite and peculiar little creature.
