Getting a 0-ring spirit beast golden-bellied ink carp was a real surprise for Duke.

Although the price of spirit beasts, especially this quasi-spirit beast with 0 rings, is not ridiculously expensive, it is still a small fortune, and it can subsidize the family.

He now has three sources of income.

One is the fixed card repair income of the small Sam repair card shop, which can net about 50 silver dragons a month after deducting the material costs, wages, and card repairers' commissions.

One is the service fee of purchasing agents, and now the scale has expanded, and he has hired a simple big man Harper in addition to Levine, who can basically earn 120 silver dragons a month.

Another is the waste card station Taoka, which is sold as a second-hand card after maintenance and refurbishment, with the assistance of Xiaoyi, and can earn about 80 silver dragons a month.

Plus plus minus minus, the total income of two golden dragons a month.

Of course.

After the end of the year, the business tax paid by Old Sam will be due, and he will have to pay the tax himself, as well as the expenses for the relevant agencies in the town, and he will have to prepare one or two gold dragons a year.

"Let's go, go home!"

Seeing that it was getting late, Duke hurried home with a bucket of water.

When I returned to the familiar second vertical street, I immediately met and greeted acquaintances: "Ouch, little Duke boss, this is fishing again?" ”

"yes."

"Little Duke boss is really good Yaxing, how is the harvest?"

Duke responded with a smile: "Don't say it, I really ran into it, I caught an injured golden-bellied ink carp, Boss Arrahand came to take a look." ”

He handed the bucket over.

In addition to a few small miscellaneous fish, it is the golden-bellied ink carp whose tail has been knocked off half of it, and now its body is no longer bleeding, and its breath is also very stable, obviously as a spirit beast's physique, it successfully withstood the gunshot wound.

"Wow!" Boss Arrahan exclaimed, "It's really the golden-bellied ink carp, you are so lucky...... Gee! ”

After watching the fish.

Duke said again: "By the way, Boss Arrahand, I'm going to order a few more sets of summer work clothes, can you come back and help our clerk measure the size?" ”

Arrahand, the owner of a nearby tailor shop, immediately smiled when he heard this: "Okay, I'm fine, I'll go over when I go back and get a tape measure." ”

"I'll see you later."

"Well, you're busy first."

Back at Little Sam Schuka's shop, Aunt Abi had already prepared dinner, and except for the three card repairers who had already returned home from work, the other clerks were eating in the courtyard.

Today, the Little Sam Shop has nine employees, excluding the card repairer and Duke himself.

Before Duke crossed, the soybean oil processing plant he opened was almost the same worker.

However, the income of the little Sam Shuka shop for twenty gold dragons a year is equivalent to 200,000 yuan, which is not comparable to the income of the processing factory - in the two good years, Duke relied on the soybean oil processing factory to earn three or four million a year; In normal years, you can also earn three or four hundred thousand yuan a year.

It's not that he has made money, and he is reluctant to become a senior member of the Falcon Shooting Club, so he goes to practice guns when he has nothing to do.

"Boss, I'll serve you dinner." Aunt Abi stood up.

"Don't worry, I'll go and get busy for a while, just leave me some." Duke waved his hand.

After speaking, he carried the bucket to the backyard warehouse to rebuild the house.

"Tsk!"

As soon as I entered the bedroom, a fat squirrel jumped in front of me, and it was a two-month-old long-haired meerkat cub - Xiaodou.

The little pocket is so timid that Duke doesn't take it out, and it hides on the ceiling of the bedroom.

It's quiet, and basically doesn't make any movement.

"Xiaodou is hungry, there are pieces of broken fish in the bucket, do you want to eat?" Duke fished a piece of minced fish from the bucket and handed it to the pocket.

Xiaodou sniffed, then picked up the broken fish pieces with both paws and nibbled on them.

It can now eat meat.

Duke moved the fish tank he had just bought—he had planned to raise some small fish when he went fishing—and after the tank was filled with water, he put the golden-bellied ink carp in the bucket.

Didn't eat it, and didn't sell it.

He chose to raise the golden-bellied ink carp first, which can be regarded as a kind of romance of the old man - after all, his soul is not young, and it is time to like raising fish and grass.

The golden-bellied ink carp entered the fish tank, a little uncomfortable, leaning against the corner and gasping for breath.

There is no oxygen pump.

Duke was a little worried about whether the golden-bellied ink carp could adapt, but thinking that it didn't burp in the bucket, it can be seen that as a 0-ring spirit beast, it has a strong ability to survive and adapt.

The fish tank should be able to feed it.

"Xiaodou, look at the dots, it will be your companion in the future." Duke said, and moved a pot of grass on the desk to the edge of the fish tank, "Spirit fish with spirit grass, this feng shui can't take off yet!" ”

The grass is the orchid that was shoveled home before.

After being busy with all this, and leaving a few pieces of broken fish for Xiaodou, Duke went to the yard to eat.

Sally at the counter had already finished eating, and when she saw Duke coming, she chatted and said, "There are a few more mercenaries in the store today, and the accent is not local." ”

"Do you ask them where they came from and why they came?"

"I asked, but they didn't say anything, they just said that they had come here to explore and look for a few scarce resources. But I don't feel like they're adventurous, and I heard from one of them about what the house was rented...... Boss, you think, if they come to explore, they will leave in a few days, there is no need to rent a house, just stay in a hotel. ”

Duke nodded.

Duteran, the delivery man, followed: "When I went to make deliveries, I also saw a lot of fresh faces, wandering around the streets. ”

After hearing this, Aunt Abi said worriedly: "Shouldn't I really start a pioneering war, ouch, I don't know how many people will die now!" ”

"It's none of our business." The apprentice Dieter didn't care.

"How can it be okay." Sally said, "If we really start a war, our little Sam Shoka shop must be very busy, and how many people will come to repair the card when the time comes." ”

There was a pause.

Sally added, "Boss, I'm a little worried. ”

"Worried about what?"

"I'm worried that the Best Repair Shop won't be able to fall, although there are not many people repairing cards over there now, but once the Pioneer War is launched, there will be more people repairing cards, and the Best Repair Shop may come back to life."

"yes, it's a possibility." Delivery man Steve nodded.

Duke frowned, if the Pioneer War started and the Best Shuka Shop took the opportunity to come back to life, it would definitely be a good thing for him.

Best's betrayal at the beginning almost ruined the little Sam Shuka shop.

Now the popularity of Best Card Repair is extremely bleak, but Best is a card repairer after all, and he has accumulated a family business over the years and can still survive.

He must have heard the news of the war and wanted to hold on to it.

"You don't have to worry about that, whether or not the Pioneer War will be launched, the Best Scion shop will have to close down sooner or later." Duke reassured everyone, "Besides, even if the Best Repair Shop survives the Pioneer War, so what, there is no Repair Card Shop on the Second Vertical Street that can compete with our Little Sam Repair Shop!" ”

"It's, it's!" Dutrán nodded.

The others nodded their heads in conviction.

When everyone had finished dinner and Aunt Abi had washed the dishes and chopsticks, Sally closed the door and left.

Duke was the only one left in the huge Sam Shuka shop, and he didn't go back to his bedroom to practice the General Blood Refining Method as usual, or read books to expand the database.
