Chapter 7 Lack of Funds
On the bus back to school, Teacher Zhou was softly comforting the students who were disappointed because of the failure of the contract.
Chen Wei heard that there were about a hundred students from Shuishan No. 2 Middle School who applied to go to Shuishan Breeding Base this time. There were fifty people on this bus alone, and only a dozen people were successful in contracting. The success rate was similar to the previous contract. , about 25%.
The students who failed the contract this time will probably be transferred to Class 3 or Class 4 of Beast Control.
The environment on the bus was a little depressing. Even the classmates who had looked at the star ring with joy when they first got on the bus were mostly sitting quietly and not deliberately showing off their pets.
Perhaps accidents and failures always accompany life. Looking at most of the frustrated classmates in front of him who were even crying silently, Chen Wei tapped the armrest of his seat with his fingers on his right hand, feeling very distressed.
The originally expected 1.5 million has now become 2.5 million, and the property left behind by the parents plus the subsidy from Donghua Kingdom is only 1.5 million.
This is thanks to the fact that his father is an elite beast master, otherwise ordinary orphans would not have so much money.
Chen Wei previously estimated that after the loan, he would have 75,000 yuan left to cultivate pet beasts, but now he only has 25,000 yuan left.
The most critical thing is that the loan amount has soared from 750,000 for ten years to 1250,000 for ten years, which is equivalent to a monthly repayment of over 10,000.
You must know that the monthly salary of an ordinary junior beast master on the market today is only about 10,000.
Cai Ling's rations are a huge expense in total. Even at the simplest level, ice source crystals and fish and meat would cost several thousand a month.
What's more, Chen Wei doesn't want to treat his pet beast badly. Cai Ling is his treasure, so the cost will be even more.
Thinking of this, Chen Wei's eyes darkened slightly. The plan did not change quickly. The shortage of funds made him a little stressed. It seemed that he would start working hard to earn money to support his family from tomorrow.
If you continue to focus on cultivating pet beasts according to the original plan, you will probably starve to death.
Fortunately, he has already reached the third year of high school. The courses in the first and second years of high school mainly teach various knowledge about beast control. In the third year of high school, it is the practical summary of the courses in the first and second grades of high school.
Except for the first two days of school, the school will not force senior high school students to go to the classroom for classes. Instead, it will open the school's beast-keeping facilities, allowing students to use the knowledge they have learned to flexibly cultivate their own pets, and even allow students to work part-time during class time. Earn money to breed pet animals.
It just so happened that Chen Wei could use his senior year of high school to train Cailing and earn money to support his family.
...
Back in the apartment with a slightly dilapidated exterior wall, Chen Wei sat on the bed, took out the rations given in the contract from his schoolbag, and couldn't wait to summon the little Cailing.
Little Cailing, who had just come out of the star ring and was a little dazed from sleep, stared at Chen Wei angrily, her big eyes filled with anger, obviously unhappy with Chen Wei's behavior of disturbing her sleep.
The corners of Chen Wei's mouth raised slightly, and there was a smile in his eyes: "You can't sleep all the time, you still have to eat something."
Looking at the gentle but unapologetic smile of the beast master, Xiao Cailing raised her head, He wanted to show his disdain, but found that he was still looking up at Chen Wei, so he shook his head unhappily and lay down to sleep, ignoring his beast master.
Chen Wei felt Xiao Cailing's displeasure and disregard, but he thought its arrogant look was extremely cute.
Shaking his head vigorously, Chen Wei smiled helplessly. This little guy really wouldn't use [Charm] on his own beastmaster. This charm would be too foul.
"We are partners who will grow up together in the future. If you listen to me, you will get one more massage every night."
After hearing the massage, Xiao Cailing opened her big eyes, looked back at Chen Wei, and yelled "Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!" Several times. "Three times a day, no more." Chen Wei smiled dumbly, then gently stroked Cai Ling's head with his left hand and started tonight's [Dragon Power] massage.
After the little Cailing showed a comfortable expression, Chen Wei handed the secondary ice source crystal to the corner of its mouth and watched it eat slowly with a smile.
Now Chen Wei feels as if he has raised a daughter, and his heart is about to become adorable.
After Cai Ling had absorbed almost all the energy, Chen Wei put it on the bed and let it rest for a while. Then he got up and fed some fish food to Xiao Jin, who was eager to see what was going on in the fish tank.
Turning her head to look at Xiao Jin swimming nimbly in the fish tank, Cai Ling raised the corners of her mouth slightly, looked at Chen Wei again, and made a clear voice: "Hey." "That's not the food I prepared for you, it's yours.
" My friend, please don’t eat it, absorb some source crystals first, and there will be meat tomorrow.” Chen Wei warned softly.
After hearing his beastmaster saying that he couldn't eat it, Xiao Cailinton curled up the source crystals into a ball out of boredom and continued to sleep.
Chen Wei took out his mobile phone, logged into the Royal Beast Shopping Mall app and went shopping. He spent 5,000 star coins and placed an order directly, buying 3kg of fresh fish and 1kg of secondary ice source crystals.
"These ingredients should be enough for little Cailing for the time being. After all, using [Dragon Power] to speed up Cailing's growth also requires supplementing with corresponding nutrients. It can't be like the last experiment where Xiao Jin almost starved to death." Chen Wei I thought to myself.
It would cost a lot to keep Cai Ling's nutrition up, and with the loans still on her, she had to think of ways to make money!
"It's a pity that Boss Lin of the reservoir won't let me go fishing, otherwise I can make some extra money to relieve the pressure." Chen Wei thought regretfully.
There was no other way, so Chen Wei had no choice but to open the recruitment software on his mobile phone, select a few pet shops near Jiangcheng District with decent salaries, submit his resume, and then began to familiarize himself with and practice the second-order source stars.
When the Source Star reaches the second level, you can contract a second pet beast. If you cultivate the strength of the pet beast to the second level, you can apply to the Beast Master Association to become an intermediate beast master.
It's just that Chen Wei has no idea of contracting a second pet beast yet. Soldiers value elites rather than many. At present, the most important thing is to cultivate the little Cailing well.
...
The next day, the high school beast control class started, and as usual, every student had to register and report again.
Entering the classroom of Grade 2 Beast Controlling Class 2, Chen Wei directly scanned the classroom looking for a suitable position, but found that there were many unfamiliar classmates.
At this time, the classroom was very noisy. Many students in the back seats were chatting excitedly. Some students even summoned their pet animals.
Chen Wei was not used to the noisy environment in the back row, so he directly found a quiet seat near the front row and sat there.
At this time, Lao Huang, who was blushing and thick-necked while arguing with his classmates in the crowd, accidentally saw Chen Wei, pointed his finger at Chen Wei, and said loudly: "I am really not bragging to you, the person who contracted with Han Jade Snake is Chen Wei. "
Lao Huang's voice attracted the attention of everyone in the classroom. Even Chen Wei, who was sitting in his chair full of ideas about making money, was awakened by Lao Huang's shout.
Chen Wei, who felt that he had become the center of attention of everyone in the classroom, could only look back and smile awkwardly: "If there was no second person who successfully contracted with Han Jade Snake yesterday, then the person you are talking about should be me." (End of Chapter
