Chapter 53: Chapter 49: Giving you a chance, think it over before you speak

Located inside a pet shop, run by a middle-aged man.

Chen Yun sat face-to-face with that middle-aged man.

The Earth puppy that should be excited and unruly was now behaving and sitting quietly between them.

Seeing the little dog like this, the middle-aged man couldn’t help but click his tongue in amazement.

Even on the way back to the shop with Chen Yun, he had already noticed that the puppy had indeed become obedient.

But he still felt as if he were living in a dream.

No... how could this be?

Did this man just touch the Earth puppy and change its personality?

What is this? A canine succubus?

Or did he secretly use some chemical power?

The middle-aged man found this incomprehensible.

Chen Yun could sense the man’s confusion, but he didn’t offer an explanation.

Looking at the little dog, which was now sitting submissively after being spooked, Chen Yun suddenly had the idea of buying a dog.

To be honest.

Chen Yun didn’t know if it was loneliness or something else.

But seeing this timely dog on the ground in front of him, he just suddenly felt this way.

Perhaps it was those many nights alone, without the need for sleep.

Those nights really made Chen Yun, whose heart had not yet adapted to the superhuman, feel lonely.

It was then Chen Yun realized that he might need a creature to accompany him — and until he was invincible enough, this creature obviously couldn’t be human.

Thinking it over.

Chen Yun asked the middle-aged man the question he had not answered on the street:

"How much for this little Earth puppy?"

Although he had never raised a dog, he had seen vendors selling puppies under three months old in some vegetable markets.

Usually, they were less than two hundred yuan.

This was also very cheap for Chen Yun and totally acceptable.

"Eighty-eight hundred yuan, let’s aim for auspiciousness."

"My dog’s pedigree and quality are pretty good."

The middle-aged man took a look at Chen Yun, whose demeanor was quite respectable, and chose to speak up directly.

Grinning with a big toothy smile that seemed very friendly.

However, it abruptly stopped Chen Yun’s train of thought.

How much? Eight-eight hundred?

What kind of price was this?!

Was he being taken for a fool?!

Although Chen Yun didn’t understand how much the dog’s pedigree and quality were worth, and whether it was worth this so-called price of eighty-eight hundred yuan,

His Transparent World 2.0 told him that this middle-aged man was harboring ill intentions.

That excitement, which was almost bursting out but he still held back.

It made Chen Yun clearly understand that he was indeed being treated like a sucker.

And this fleecing was absolutely not light.

This caused him to look at the shop owner’s eyes in silence for a while.

A long while.

Chen Yun spoke calmly, "I think you might want to reconsider before speaking."

His tone was very calm.

Instead of being angry about being ripped off, he seemed to be indifferent.

But when the middle-aged man heard Chen Yun’s words, he felt laughed at.

What do you mean reconsider before speaking?

So arrogant?

I might as well not sell it to you then.

Thinking this, the middle-aged man was about to blurt out that he wouldn’t sell it.

But when his gaze fell on Chen Yun’s hand resting on the edge of the wooden table, his eyes widened in shock, and he immediately choked back his words.

What the heck?!

What powerhouse is this?

The middle-aged man looked at the scene before him, somewhat stupefied.

He noticed his cheap but genuine solid wood table.

At some point, Chen Yun had broken off a corner.

It was now being held in his hand and kneaded.

Among the creaks of pressure, the middle-aged man felt as though his heart was being clenched tightly as well.

He only snapped out of it when he saw that the solid wood table was nearly crushed into sawdust.

Staring at the still composed Chen Yun in front of him, the middle-aged man swallowed and stuttered, "Ye... yes, right, look at my scatterbrain."

"How did I remember eighty-eight as eight thousand eight? Looks like I really got myself confused with all the busyness today," the man said.

A forced smile stretched across his face.

Compared to the fake smile that barely concealed his shrewd and greedy nature before,

The current smile seemed much more genuine.

Chen Yun sensed that all that remained in the middle-aged man was tension, confusion, fear, and genuine emotions.

In timely fashion, he let go, allowing the sawdust to fall to the ground.

He decided not to scare the dishonest merchant further.

"Also, get me some dog cages, food, and other necessities," he said.

"Tell me how much all that will cost."

After getting up, he pulled out his phone and scanned the payment QR code on the shop’s wall.

Then he looked at the middle-aged man.

"Add it all up, let’s say 120," he proposed.

"I’ve already dewormed it here; remember to take it for vaccinations in about a week."

Eagerly, the middle-aged man fetched a dog cage and a pile of dog food, placing everything in front of Chen Yun.

He swore,

This time, he hadn’t marked up the price much—It was almost at cost.

Upon seeing the solid wood table turned to sawdust,

He had dared not think of scamming anyone else.

Modern legal systems may protect one from troublemakers, but getting beaten up by such a formidable man was not worth it; better to send this deity on his way quickly.

"Alright, I’ve sent the payment,"

Chen Yun nodded,

Then he gently placed the well-behaved little Earth dog into the cage and walked out of the pet store.

He didn’t dwell too much on this minor incident.

The middle-aged man, on the other hand, breathed a sigh of relief after Chen Yun had left.

He finally saw off this big shot.

He was covered in cold sweat just moments ago, and now he felt a chilly dryness all over from the sweat evaporating.

He looked at his solid wood table, now missing a corner,

And then at the sawdust on the floor,

Immensely grateful for his quick reaction.

When it was time to be sincere, sincerity was needed.

Otherwise,

He certainly did not think his body could be sturdier than the solid wood table.

Only the wise and brave can navigate the times.

In the future, it would be better to steer clear of deceptive practices.

··························

Following this,

Chen Yun continued to stroll around the expansive pet market a few more times.

Since he had already bought a dog,

He lost interest in the other various pets and focused on his goal: white mice.

Before long,

He purchased a total of forty-five white mice from three different shops, which was significantly less than the hundred he originally planned to buy.

After all, this wasn’t a white mouse breeding facility; it was mostly other pets being sold.

Fortunately, forty-five was just about enough for his needs.

Furthermore,

Since these mice were being sold as pets, their price had gone up to an average of twenty-five yuan each from the five yuan per mouse at breeding facilities.

This price was indeed a bit steep.

But considering the in-depth research he wanted to conduct on Emotion Perception Ability, these expenses were quite necessary.

After all, experimenting with white mice didn’t entail any ethical constraints, and their price was already quite affordable.

Thinking this way,

After arranging for the mice to be delivered to his place by the three pet shops, Chen Yun took his newly purchased Earth dog and took a taxi home.
