Su Ping took a taxi and left the uptown area.
The driver would only take him to the border of the uptown area and would not go into the civilian area. Su Ping had to transfer to another taxi.
He didn't know that getting into the city was as difficult as getting out.
Su Ping didn't go home directly. Instead, he went to the store.
The store had accumulated a lot of business. If he had time, Su Ping would have to use the time to train pets.
He even wondered if he should tell his family that he was going to sleep in the store.
He could train more than a dozen batches of pets in one night with the dummy. Once those pets were trained, there would be more space for him to take on more business.
Su Ping had wasted four or five hours of his time. He regretted it. He could train another four or five batches of pets in that time. The money he would make would be no less than what he earned from tutoring.
Besides, the money he earned could be converted into energy points.
"I think I have to think about tutoring again," Su Ping said to himself.
Su Ping left the store and rode home after the dummy training was started.
Su Ping saw his mom watching TV and waiting for him as soon as he got home.
"You're back." Li Qingru lost interest in watching TV as soon as she saw Su Ping. "I will heat up the dishes for you."
Su Ping went to wash his hands.
While he was waiting for dinner at the dining table, he heard footsteps coming from the stairs. Su Lingyue was coming down with a cup of tea. She seemed to be going downstairs to get some water.
Su Lingyue darted a glance at Su Ping and walked over with her teacup. "You're back so late every day. Is the store doing well?" She asked casually, as if she were just asking casually.
Su Ping answered casually, "Not bad."
Su Lingyue curled her lips. Not bad? If she hadn't seen it with her own eyes, she wouldn't have believed Su Ping's answer.
She glanced at Su Ping again. When Su Ping left the restaurant at around seven o 'clock in the evening, she chased after him on her scooter. In the end, Su Ping's taxi went straight to Uptown.
She didn't have an Uptown residence permit and didn't have much money on her. She was stopped at the security check and could only go home resentfully.
And now it was so late, and Su Ping had just returned. What had he been doing for such a long time?
Her heart was filled with curiosity, but she couldn't show it. After thinking for a while, she asked indifferently, "How much did the store earn today?"
Su Ping raised his eyebrows and looked at her strangely. Usually, this fellow never asked about the store. What was she thinking today?
"Not much, just a little," Su Ping said perfunctorily.
Liar!
Su Lingyue was furious.
There were so many people lining up today that the doorstep was almost broken. Su Ping actually said that he didn't earn much?
Was he trying to pocket the money?
Su Lingyue clenched her teeth. The handle of the cup in her hand had to bear the sudden increase in strength. On the surface, she remained calm and said casually, "Is that so? I happen to be free tomorrow. Take me to the store and have a look."
"You're free?" Su Ping was surprised. Only then did he remember that it was the weekend.
No wonder business was so good.
He understood. Then, he darted a look at his sister and realized something was wrong. This girl … didn't go to the store today, did she?
Otherwise, why would she suddenly care about the store's income?
This possibility made Su Ping certain. But he wasn't nervous. He said calmly, "Up to you."
The store's business and how much it earned were his own business. It was the result of his and the system's efforts. When the money went into his pocket, he wouldn't feel guilty toward his family. Even if Su Lingyue found out about the store's real income, he wouldn't have anything to worry about.
The money was earned.
It would all be his.
What?
Su Lingyue was taken aback by Su Ping's fearlessness. She was even angrier. This guy was so stubborn.
That being said, there was nothing she could do to Su Ping. After all, Su Ping was the one who ran the store. Su Ping was the one who made the money. Of course, Su Ping would be responsible for the loss. She was just angry that Su Ping was trying to pocket the money.
Should she tell her mom about this?
When she thought of this, she dismissed the idea.
During the day, Su Ping suppressed the Wing Beast in the store and became an advanced teacher in their academy … Su Ping couldn't have cultivated for nothing. He must have accumulated his strength with money!
The money that Su Ping pocketed must have been used to enhance his strength.
He had used it in the right way.
"Did he buy the Inferno Dragon with his own money?"
Su Lingyue was startled by this thought. The Inferno Dragon was a Long Chong. It couldn't be bought with money, not to mention that the Inferno Dragon would be sold at a sky-high price. Given their small store's income, they wouldn't be able to afford the Inferno Dragon even if they worked for a hundred years.
She looked at Su Ping. She had a feeling that this guy was hiding many secrets. Even she found him strange.
Right then, Li Qingru came with the food.
Su Lingyue was there as well. Li Qingru asked, "Why are you downstairs?"
"I'm here to get some water," Su Lingyue answered casually.
"Don't you have a bottle of water in your room?"
"…"
Su Lingyue didn't expect that it wasn't Su Ping who had defeated her, but her mother.
Out of the corner of her eye, she sensed that someone was looking at her. She turned around and snorted. "I finished all the water in my room." With that said, she stood up and went upstairs.
Li Qingru was confused. "Finished? But I just filled up a bottle for you. "
"…"
Bang, bang, bang!
Su Lingyue went upstairs even faster!
Su Ping saw her running away. He knew that she had found out about his store. Of course, Su Ping didn't know that. Su Lingyue only knew that his store was doing well, but she didn't know about the actual income of the store.
Su Ping shook his head. He didn't want to think too much about it. It didn't matter whether she knew or not. He didn't want to hide anything from her and it would be difficult to do so anyway.
There was still a lot of food left for that day. Su Ping finished it quickly and went upstairs after saying goodbye to his mother.
Su Ping went back to his room. As usual, he lay down and cultivated.
I have to think about the professional training mission. Should I train in a middle-rank plane or … go all out and train in a top-rank plane? Su Ping thought as he cultivated.
Training in a middle-rank plane would save money but it would take time. He would have to train many times to meet the requirements.
Training in a top-rank plane would cost money but it would save time. He could do it in one go.
This was a dilemma. When he was poor, he would have chosen a middle-rank cultivation plane. However, the store was doing a lot of business and his time was valuable.
Su Ping gradually fell asleep while he pondered.
The next morning.
Su Ping woke up. He saw Su Lingyue when he was having breakfast downstairs.
"No wonder I didn't see her yesterday. She must have been tailed." Su Ping knew that it was the weekend. He figured out what Su Lingyue was thinking.
Su Ping finished several bowls of porridge and was ready to go out with a bun in his mouth.
"I'm coming with you." Su Lingyue went after him.
Su Ping raised his eyebrows. He didn't expect that she would really go.
"Suit yourself." Su Ping didn't want to waste time talking to her. The more he tried to stop her, the more curious she would be. After all, she couldn't even enter the pet room without his permission.
She wouldn't be able to see anything even if she went.
Su Lingyue went to the store with Su Ping because she wanted to see if the business was the same as the day before.
The two of them went out.
Su Lingyue was still riding the electric scooter that her mother used to buy groceries. She followed behind Su Ping.
When they arrived at the store, Su Ping saw a long line from the distance. There seemed to be more people there than the day before. He frowned.
He didn't train many pets the day before. He was afraid that there wouldn't be enough space in the training space today.
Su Lingyue was overjoyed to see the long line. She didn't expect that business would be so good today. It seemed that the day before wasn't an exception.
When Su Ping arrived at the store, the crowd noticed Su Ping and gathered around him.
Su Ping was getting used to this. He locked the scooter, took out the key, and unlocked the door. Before he bent down, someone helped him open the shutter door.
Su Ping looked at the person who opened the shutter door. He looked familiar. It was the same person he had met several times before.
Su Ping nodded to express his gratitude.
Su Ping went into the store, turned around, and said, "As usual, line up according to the order you came. Also, those who are here to pick up their pets, line up on the left. Those who are here for training, line up on the right."
Hearing Su Ping's words, the crowd split into two lines at once.
There were fewer people on the left side. Apart from a few experienced ones, most of the people on the left side were confused.
When they were told by Su Ping to pick up their pets, they thought they had heard wrong. It had only been one day. How could Su Ping say that the pets had been trained?
Could the training be done that fast?
They felt that they had been cheated. If it weren't for the fact that there were so many students around and that Su Ping was an advanced teacher, they would have gone to Su Ping to reason with him.
"Those who are here to pick up their pets, please come first. Make room for them. Don't be impatient," Su Ping said.
The people waiting in line on the right side understood Su Ping's intention to make room for them. They said that they were not in a hurry.
"Come, name. What's your pet?" Su Ping began to ask.
The one at the front was a young man named Nie Zhan.
It was the first time he had come to Su Ping's store to have his pets trained. His family was not well-to-do. He had been saving the money for a long time.
If it weren't for the fact that Su Ping was an advanced teacher, he wouldn't have been so determined.
Yesterday, when he heard that Su Ping had told him to pick up his pets, Nie Zhan was stunned and scared. If Su Ping had casually said that the training was done, then the hundred thousand he had worked so hard to save would have gone down the drain.
After tossing and turning all night, Nie Zhan got up before dawn and ran over. That was why he was at the front of the line.
During the several hours of waiting, Nie Zhan's mind was filled with all kinds of thoughts. His mood was getting worse and worse. He even wanted to curse someone. If it weren't for the fact that more and more students were coming, Nie Zhan would have questioned Su Ping and demanded a refund.
"Fourth-rank Rock Mite?" Su Ping nodded and told Nie Zhan to wait. Then, he went inside to pick up his pets.
