"Squeak~"

With a slight thud, a crack opened in the classical door.

After seeing the people coming outside the door, the door of Shuguang Building No. 1 was slowly opened, but the faces of the people inside the door were obviously a little impatient, "Bring people to see the building again?" ”

"Mr. Zhao has met again, let me introduce you." Zhang Li had a smile on her face, and she was not affected by the other party's impatient tone in the slightest, "This is Mr. Xu Ran, the beast master who came all the way from Demon Wood City. ”

After introducing Xu Ran, she naturally turned her head to look at Xu Ran, "This is Mr. Zhao Henian, the owner of Shuguang Building No. 1." ”

"Hello Mr. Zhao." Xu Ran smiled politely, "I am interested in acquiring Shuguang Building No. 1, but listening to Ms. Zhao, it doesn't seem to be a simple matter. ”

"Looks like you already know." Zhao Henian's face was a little pale, "My building is only sold to the person I want to sell, otherwise I won't sell it even if I pay more price." ”

"What kind of person is that, can he be regarded as the person that Mr. Zhao wants to sell?" Xu Ran smiled and asked, "Can you tell me more specifically?" ”

"That's fine." Seeming to appreciate Xu Ran's attitude, Zhao Henian's face became a little calmer, "The person who buys Shuguang Building No. 1 must meet two conditions. ”

"My Shuguang No. 1 building can be said to be the best paved location on Guangming Avenue, and there is no one."

"So this first condition, the person who buys it, must be the undisputed first in the field it wants to operate, so that it can match my Dawning One Building."

"This is the main reason why no one has been able to buy Shuguang One for the past few months." Zhang Li on the side explained softly, "Those who want to buy this building basically want to take advantage of the geographical advantages of Shuguang Building No. 1 to go further. ”

"The undisputed number one in those areas of operation is that when there is already a customer base, it will be very cautious to change the location of the store."

"Understood." Xu Ran's face showed a sudden look.

Indeed, operators who can become the number one in each industry will not easily change the location of their stores, because this may cause the loss of existing customers.

But...

It shouldn't be difficult for other operators to buy Shuguang Building 1 and take advantage of its geographical advantages to open a branch, right?

Thinking of this, there was a trace of doubt in Xu Ran's eyes.

And the next moment, Zhao Henian's words answered all his doubts.

"This second condition..."Zhao Henian said slowly, "The operator who buys Shuguang No. 1 can only operate Shuguang No. 1 Building as the only store in Minghui City, and is not allowed to open a branch. ”

Xu Ran: "..."

This condition is a bit harsh.

"Mr. Zhao is an architect, and he is both the owner and designer of Shuguang One." Zhang Li smiled helplessly and explained softly, "In Mr. Zhao's heart, Shuguang Building No. 1 is like his child. ”

"Yes, exactly." Zhao Henian nodded in agreement, "Young man, you should be able to understand the feeling of entrusting your child to a suitable person, right?" ”

"I can understand a little bit by saying that." Xu Ran touched his chin and nodded slightly.

Isn't this the mentality of the father-in-law who hopes that the future son-in-law is excellent, and does not want the future son-in-law to be a scumbag.

Although such a mentality is a little weird here, after empathy, Xu Ran chose to respect.

"Mr. Zhao, I can meet your second condition." Xu Ran said slowly, "To tell you the truth, I plan to buy Shuguang Building 1 and run a foster care store." ”

"Although I have stores in other cities, I can guarantee that there will only be one store in Minghui City."

"Hmm...," Zhao Henian was silent for a moment, "Count Ling to meet the second condition." ”

"As for this first condition..."Xu Ran's voice paused slightly, "I still have some confidence in becoming the first in the foster care industry in Minghui City, but now that I have just come to Minghui City, how can I prove this?" ”

"If it's another industry, you really can't prove it, and you're not qualified to buy my store." Zhao Henian glanced at Xu Ran, "But the foster care industry... Now is the opportunity to prove it. ”

"Oh?" There was a hint of curiosity on Xu Ran's face, "What chance?" ”

"What Mr. Zhao said should be our triennial pet animal washing and care exhibition in Minghui City." Zhang Li on the side smiled and said, "Actually, I was going to tell you about this matter after I helped Mr. Xu buy the storefront." ”

Xu Ran's eyes lit up in an instant.

The washing and care exhibition should sound similar to the open-air cleaning and care held in Demon Wood City.

The previous open-air cleaning and care ushered in a lot of customer flow for the Xinghuo foster care store, so that the popularity of the Xinghuo foster care store reached 50% of the task requirements in a short period of time.

Now, if you can reproduce the process of skyrocketing popularity in Minghui City with similar activities, it will be great for Xu Ran!

Xu Ran naturally did not forget the purpose of his coming to Minghui City.

Opening a store in Minghui City is only secondary, and the most important thing is to guard the extinction thunderbolt.

Complete the visibility task requirements as soon as possible, and you can summon three system clerks to take over the store in Minghui City as soon as possible.

Then, he can be a hands-off shopkeeper, while lying down to account for the income of the four stores, and at the same time making more preparations for the battle for the extermination thunder guide with the three little ones.

Therefore, the top priority is to raise the popularity of the Spark foster care store!

"Ms. Zhang, can you elaborate?"

"No problem." Zhang Li smiled, "Washing and caring is not only an improvement in appearance, but also an important way to maintain the state and physical function of pet animals, so the Minghui City Beast Master Association encourages more talents in cleaning and care." ”

"The pet animal washing and care exhibition is an activity born for this."

"Washers who are good at washing and caring for pet animals can sign up to receive pet animals who come to wash and care in the two-day cleaning and care exhibition."

"When the cleaning exhibition is over, the association will select a 'holy hand of washing' according to the praise of the pet animals receiving the washing, and award the title and bonus."

"The pet animal care exhibition is held once every three years, and the most recent one will be held in three days, and you can register at any time before it starts." Zhang Li smiled at Xu Ran, "Mr. Xu came at the right time. ”

"If you can obtain the title of 'Holy Hand of Baptism', you can be considered worthy of my Dawn One Building." Zhao Henian clasped his hands on his chest and spoke expressionlessly.

It was clear from the look in his eyes that he was not hopeful.

"Is that so...," Xu Ran smiled, "Then let's try it." ”

After listening to Zhang Li's introduction to the pet animal washing and care exhibition, he made up his mind in his heart.

He had to participate in this event.

"Mr. Zhao, I'm sorry for today, I'll leave first." Xu Ran got up and arched his hand towards Zhao Henian, turned around and walked out of Shuguang Building No. 1.

Zhang Li walked out immediately after her and smiled, "Mr. Xu, why don't I show you other stores for sale?" ”

"It's fine."

Xu Ran did not refuse, and followed Zhang Li to other stores for sale to check.

It's just that Zhuyu is in front, he has seen Shuguang No. 1 Building, and then looks at other stores, Xu Ran always feels that it is a little bit worse.

After looking around, Xu Ran not only did not give up, but wanted to win Shuguang Building 1 even more.

If you get the title of "Holy Hand of Washing and Care" at the pet animal washing and care exhibition, and you have the geographical advantage of the store, you can be the shopkeeper in a week at most.

Do you understand the gold content of the shopkeeper!

"It seems that Mr. Xu still likes Shuguang Building 1." Zhang Li pursed her lips and smiled, revealing an unexpected expression, "Since that's the case, then I wish Mr. Xu a good result in the pet animal washing and care exhibition." ”

"I really have to work hard." Xu Ran smiled and waved Zhang Li away, then turned his head to look at the three little ones who followed behind, "Let's get the things done with the store first, and then we will go all out to prepare for the extermination thunder." ”

"Meow!" (No problem!) ）

Ziyun waved his claws, looking full of energy.

Wash and care, it will help too!

The Extinction Thunder Attraction has been silent in the Falling Thunder Valley for so long, and it is not bad for these few days!

And...

Ziyun had a hunch.

When the Exterminating Thunderbolt is about to appear, it may have a dark sense.

Because, the power of the Extermination Thunder Attraction is somewhat similar to the black power that it fused after casting divine punishment, and there may be some resonance between the two.

Ziyun said so, and Xingchen and Cancan naturally had no opinion.

"Next, let's find a hotel in Minghui City to stay for two days, wait until the pet animal washing and care exhibition begins, and by the way, get familiar with the environment of Minghui City." Xu Ran stretched and pointed not far away.

"That hotel looks good, go check it out."

——

As soon as the time turned, two days passed.

In the past two days, Xu Ran and Sanxiao only enjoyed the rare period of calm after the catastrophe in the Demon Wood Domain, and their ups and downs because of witnessing the evolution of the Sky Xuanmu have also calmed down a lot because of the new sights and stories in Minghui City in the past two days.

And the first battle of the Spark foster care store in Minghui City is about to start.

On the first day of the pet animal washing and care exhibition, Xu Ran, who had already completed the registration in advance, appeared at the washing and care exhibition with three small ones.

It was a large open field, on which a hundred enclosed washing rooms had been built improvised to accommodate large pet animals.

Washers who sign up for the Cleaning and Care Exhibition will draw lots to choose the corresponding Washing and Care Room, and in the next two days, they will receive the Beast Masters and their pet animals from all over Minghui City, and the Washing and Care will be free of charge, and the resource consumption in the process of Washing and Care will be paid for by the Beast Master Association.

It is not only a stage for the performance of cleaning and care talents, but also a small benefit issued by the Beast Master Association to all the beast masters in Minghui City.

"Hello, I'm Xu Ran, sign up for the exhibition." Walking in front of the staff of the organizer, Xu Ran took out his registration voucher, "When will the lottery start to select the washing room?" ”

"The lottery will come first, please here." Soon, the staff took Xu Ran to the lottery place.

"Cha!" (I'll smoke it!) ）

Cancan raised a paw and volunteered.

Let the King of the Dragon Turtle, who is in charge of good luck, draw the best washing room in the field!

"Okay, here you go." Seeing Cancan so excited, Xu Ran smiled and stepped aside.

I saw Cancan striding forward confidently, reaching out a paw and touching the lottery box, and then grabbed a closed metal cylinder.

The staff took the metal cylinder, skillfully opened it, took out one of the rolled up drawings, and spread it out for display.

It was a layout of all the rooms at the Pet Care Show, but one of the rooms was painted in a very different color from the others, painted in a striking red.

That is the location of the washing room in the Cancan Gang Xu Ran.

And when he saw that position, the bright expression that was still proud and confident before collapsed instantly.

Because, that location is not only remote, but also far from the entrance of the exhibition area.

Even if you don't know much about business, Cancan can see that it is not a good position.

"Cha~" (Damn, today's good luck is gone...) ）

Its raised head slowly drooped, and its expression suddenly wilted.

"It's fine." Xu Ran smiled dumbly and touched Cancan's head to show comfort.

Cancan's luck was so bad, it was indeed something he didn't expect.

In this kind of washing and care exhibition, the comparison of washing and care effects is clear at a glance, and even laymen can easily make judgments, and the location of the washing and care room will only affect it for a while.

Not a big problem.

"Cha!" (I'll try to attract guests!) ）

Chancan took a deep breath and shouted.

Luck doesn't work, so let's work hard!

"Hmm... You come on. Xu Ran smiled.

I hope Cancan won't be a moth this time.

After receiving the drawing of the washing room instruction map, Xu Ran turned around and left with the three little ones, and soon appeared in front of the door of the bathroom that belonged to him.

At the door of the vacant washing room, there is an empty plaque and pen and ink on a white background, which allows the exhibitors to write their own name of the washing room, which is easy to identify and distinguish.

Dipping the ink into the tip of the pen, Xu Ran did not hesitate to write down the five big words "Xinghuo Foster Care Shop", took two steps back and looked at the overall effect, and then nodded with satisfaction.

"Spark Foster Care Shop?"

A curious voice suddenly came from not far away, and a middle-aged man walked out of the washing room next door, with a searching expression on his face, "Little brother, do you look a little raw?" ”

"Hello uncle." Xu Ran smiled and nodded at the other party, "I just came to Minghui City not long ago. ”

"I see." The middle-aged man understood, "Then this Spark foster care shop, is this the foster care store where you work now?" How I haven't heard of it. ”

"Hmm... This is the store I'm going to open. Xu Ran smiled shyly.

Middle-aged man: "..."

The co-authorship hasn't been opened yet?

For a moment, the middle-aged man's expression relaxed slightly.

The bad luck of the lottery, and the draw to such a garbage position has already made him not have much hope for a good result in this washing and care exhibition, and if there is a strong competitor next to him at this time, his results will be even less hopeful.

Therefore, after noticing Xu Ran's new neighbor, the middle-aged man came up to inquire about the news as soon as possible.

Although Xu Ran is not very old, in this Minghui City, there are also cleaners who are younger than him and whose cleaning and care skills are ridiculously strong, and it is difficult to ensure that the young man in front of him is not a hidden dark horse.

But after hearing Xu Ran's origin, the middle-aged man was relieved.

There are no stores from other places.

It's not that he blows, there is no one in the nearby city, and the overall cleaning and care level can be comparable to Minghui City!

After all, there are very few cities like Minghui City that value cleaning and care services and cultivate cleaning and care talents!

Therefore, the teenager in front of him cannot be too threatening.

"Little brother, I'm optimistic about you." Thinking of this, the middle-aged man patted Xu Ran's shoulder with a smile, "Winning the adjacent washing room is fate, and in the next two days, let's take care of each other!" ”

"Okay." Xu Ran smiled.

The counterparts of Minghui City are quite enthusiastic.

During the conversation between the two, more and more washers entered by lot, and the vacant washrooms soon had their own owners.

Immediately afterwards, a penetrating bell rang out over the entire cleaning and care exhibition venue.

"Bell—"

"Little Brother Xu, this is the bell for the start of the cleaning and care exhibition, we will talk later when we have time." The middle-aged man waved his hand at Xu Ran, and ended this small talk with a little unfinished.

"Uncle Liu, let's talk next time." Xu Ran smiled and waved in response, from the chat just now, he already knew that the other party's name was Liu Cang.

Seeing Liu Cang enter his washing room, Xu Ran took a deep breath and stood on tiptoe to look in the direction of the entrance of the venue.

The beast masters who had already heard the news and were waiting outside the entrance door had already rushed in along the open entrance and began to look for their favorite washers for their pet beasts.

"We're going to have to work hard."

Turning his head to look at the three little ones behind him who were full of energy, Xu Ran smiled and spoke.

"Cha!" (I'm ready!) ）

Cancan waved his paw vigorously into the air, standing outside the bathroom with his head held high, guarding the bathroom while being ready to attract guests.

"Let's go, let's go inside." patted Cancan's head and motioned for it to come on, and Xu Ran took Ziyun and Xingchen into the washing room.

In the next two days of washing, both of them also had their own tasks.

As Xu Ran's assistant, Ziyun is responsible for helping Xu Ran access to various resources.

Xingchen served as a logistical support, linking Xu Ran with the chain of fate, providing Xu Ran with a steady stream of strength to ensure his liver explosion.

One person, three pets, each in place.

Next, it's time for the first guest to come to the door.

——

"Oh, Yueyue, hurry up! If it's any later, you'll have to wait in a long line! ”

On the way to the pet animal washing and care exhibition, a short-haired girl crossed her hands on her hips, and looked helplessly at another girl with a calm expression and a calm expression, "You slow son is really going to kill me!" ”

"Don't worry." Seeing the impatient appearance of the little sister, Qiu Yue smiled dumbly, "Being too anxious is sometimes not necessarily a good thing. ”

"You say that every time." Jiang Min, a short-haired girl, rolled her eyes, "But now that the pet beast washing and care exhibition has started for ten minutes, do you know how many people lined up in advance, just for the first smooth washing." ”

"This is a welfare activity that only comes once in three years to the Beast Master Association, so that all the pet beasts of the Beast Master have the opportunity to enjoy free cleaning and care!"

"I know, I know~ I've done my homework." Qiu Yue stepped forward and patted Jiang Min on the shoulder, "You're in such a hurry, then let me ask you, have you figured out which washer to choose to wash and care for your pet beast?" ”

"Needless to say, of course it's Du Qi'an of the Du family!" Jiang Min opened his mouth without hesitation, and while saying that name, there seemed to be stars twinkling in his eyes, "He is only twenty-one years old, and he is already the chief nurse of Baihua Foster Care Shop." ”

"And ~ still looks very handsome ~ hey hey hey ~"

"Alright, okay, don't be a nymphomaniac." Qiu Yue shook his head and smiled, and at the same time the corners of his mouth twitched slightly, "I heard that he was able to become the chief cleaner of Baihua Foster Care Store because the original chief washer went to other cities to open branches." ”

"Brother Na Qi'an can become the chief nurse, which also shows that he is the second best person in the cleaning and nursing skills of Baihua Foster Care Shop!" Jiang Min snorted, "What about you, Yueyue, which washer are you going to choose?" ”

"I'm not sure yet." Qiu Yue smiled and said, "At the washing and care exhibition, the level of washing and care of the caregivers is clear at a glance, so naturally you have to look at it more before you can make a decision." ”

"That's why I'm not in a hurry to come, let the people in front of me inspect the goods for us first~"

"Huh?" Jiang Min's eyes widened, "Can it still be like this?" ”

"Of course." Qiu Yue's eyes blinked, "Washing and care at the washing and care exhibition is free, but a pet beast can only be washed once, and it cannot be washed repeatedly, so you must choose the best." ”

"Well, you have a point." Jiang Min nodded, and then quickly added, "But the best cleaner must be Brother Qi An!" ”

"Okay, good~ You nymphomaniac." Qiu Yue rolled her eyes playfully and gave up arguing with her companions.

While the two women were talking and laughing, the entrance of the pet animal washing and care exhibition was getting closer and closer.

After verifying his identity and entering the washing and care exhibition venue, Jiang Min quickly exclaimed, "Yueyue, look at it!" ”

Qiu Yue looked in the direction of Jiang Min's finger, and soon saw a handsome young man in a white washing gown with a gentle smile on his slightly immature face.

He was talking to one of the guests who had finished his washing, and then welcomed the next guest into the bathroom.

On the door of the washing room, there were several big words written "Hundred Flowers Duzian", and the queue in front of the washing room was lined up early, surrounded by water.

"Brother Qi An has drawn a good position! As soon as you enter, you can see that this time the title of 'Baptizing Holy Hand' is secure. Jiang Min smiled.

"Sure enough, handsome people will not have too bad luck."

——

"Ahh

Xu Ran, who was sitting at the door of the bathroom in a daze, sneezed violently, rubbed his nose, and looked helplessly in the direction of the entrance.

Unlike the lively scene at the entrance, his location can be described as a crowd.

was originally ambitious, but at this moment Xu Ran himself was a little skeptical.

With such a large gap in passenger flow, can you really get the title of No. 1 and buy Shuguang No. 1?

Fortunately, as time went by, many beast masters discovered the deserted situation here, gave up crowding at the entrance, and wanted to come here to take a look.

The number of passers-by in the nearby area gradually increased.

Seeing a beast master stop at the door of his washing room, Xu Ran stood up abruptly, revealing a bright and polite smile, "Welcome..."

Before the words of welcome were finished, Xu Ran saw that the beast master glanced at the five big words "Spark Foster Care Shop" on the plaque, shook his head, and turned around and walked to Liu Cang's washing room on the side.

Xu Ran: "..."

Rubbing his face vigorously, he touched his waist, and there was an extra rattle in his hand, and then shook it vigorously.

"Come on! Take a look! ”

"The perfect washing and care experience that will make you want to stop!"

——

"Jiang Jiang, do you really want to line up here?" Qiu Yue took his companion's hand, looked at the long dragon in front of him, and couldn't help but hold his forehead, "There are dozens of people in front, and it will take at least ten hours for them to finish washing." ”

"It's okay~" Jiang Min waved his hand, looking indifferent, "Usually, Brother Qi'an's cleaning and care service in the Baihua foster care store can't be booked at all, and the price is also very expensive, now you only need to wait in line to get it, and it's still free." ”

"In this way, what is the calculation of just ten hours?"

"You are in a hurry, you can bear to wait for more than ten hours at this time." Qiu Yue was speechless, "Then you line up here, I'll go take a look elsewhere." ”

She's just slow, and she's not stupid.

Standing in line for more than ten hours was too painful.

It's better to see if there are any washers who don't have to wait too long and have good washing and care skills.

"Uh-huh, you go~"

Jiang Min's mind was all on his brother Qi'an, and he waved his hand casually at his companion, and then tried to stand on tiptoe and look in the direction of the washing room.

Seeing the appearance of his companion, Qiu Yue sighed, turned around and left.

Looking at the washing room where there were at least a dozen people queuing around, Qiu Yue quickly looked at the area farther away from the entrance.

There, the flow of people is much less visible to the naked eye, not to mention the long queue, even if there are people queuing at the door, there are very few.

"Let's see if we can pick up a leak." Qiu Yue muttered, and then walked away from the entrance with her unhurried steps, and walked deeper.

As far as she knew, the washing room of the pet animal care exhibition was decided by lottery, so the washers at the entrance stood in a good location, but they were not necessarily the best washers.

On the contrary, in those remote areas, there may be dusty pearls.

And what Qiu Yue has to do is to find one of them.

Walking all the way, Qiu Yue's position became deeper and deeper, and finally, her footsteps stopped, and her eyes looked at the plaque at the door of a certain washing room.

"Cangyun Liu Cang"

"Is it the owner of Cangyun's foster care store?" Qiu Yue was stunned for a moment, and then a little bit of intention appeared in his eyes.

She had heard of this washer.

Cangyun foster care store can only be regarded as a medium-sized foster care store in Minghui City.

The reason why it can't go further is because the service level of Cangyun Foster Care Store is uneven.

Liu Cang, the owner of Cangyun Foster Care Shop, has a level that is not inferior to the top three foster care stores in Minghui City, but he is only good at washing and care, and the other two services can only be handed over to others, and the person in charge of those two services is not at a high level.

In this way, the ceiling of Cangyun foster care store has been lowered.

But this does not prevent Liu Cang, the owner of Cangyun Foster Care Shop, from having a high level of washing and care?

Go for it?

Thinking of this, Qiu Yue raised his feet and walked towards the bathroom where Liu Cang was.

At this moment, a beast master with a satisfied smile on his face walked out of the washing room with the pet beast that had been washed and cared for.

Seeing the state of the pet beast after washing, Qiu Yue was even more determined in his thoughts.

The next moment, there was a sudden excited voice next to him.

"Boss Xu, I really opened my eyes today!"

Qiu Yue's footsteps paused slightly, and he turned his head to look.

Was it the washer in the washing room next to him who sent the Beastmaster guests out?

She casually glanced at the pet beast that the beast master was holding in his arms, and then her eyes widened.

This...
