Beast Tamer: My pet has a game panel.

Chapter 4 Family Dilemma
In the living room.

Ye Mo walked for half a day and was sweating a little. He then skillfully found the kettle, poured a glass of water, and drank it in gulps.

After quenching their thirst, the grandfather and grandson sat down at the small wooden table at the back of the living room.

When I opened the curtains, the morning sun shone in, making the entire living room warm.

The stream flowing outside the floor-to-ceiling windows and the lush trees not far away are like a painting, full of vitality.

"Grandpa, what's the surprise you're talking about?"

Ye Mo asked, shaking his head and smiling, "But I have a surprise for you later."

Hearing this, Ye Ruitang smiled and said, "You should know that I have been very busy these days."

"That's because I went to the Ice City and spent quite a bit of time there."

As he spoke, he took out a piece of paper and handed it to Ye Mo.

"Here, take a look. This is your grandfather's purpose for this period of time, and it's also a surprise for you."

Curious Ye Mo reached out to take the paper, and when he saw it, he was stunned for a moment.

There are not many words on the paper, but the information contained is very rich.

"Elemental Ice Spirit, race level Elite 8, bloodline potential King 2, potential evolutionary final form Ice Lord, ice element, mastery..."

"Purple Spirit Bird, race level high elite level five, bloodline potential monarch level three, potential evolution final form Thunder Purple Eagle, lightning element, mastery..."

"Snow Spirit, race level high elite level one, bloodline potential king level three, potential evolution final form Ice Queen, ice and water elements, mastery..."

"..."

The content written inside was the information of spiritual pets whose bloodline potential reached the king level.

"What are these?" Although he had some guesses in his heart, Ye Mo still couldn't believe it.

Seeing his grandson's performance, Ye Ruitang replied with satisfaction: "Yes, it's just what you think."

"The above spiritual pet information was obtained by me through connections in Bingdu. They are all about existing spiritual pet cubs."

"You can take a look for yourself. If you like any of them, I'll bring them back to you in a few days."

"Of course, I will also buy back the methods and resources for potential evolution."

Bingdu is the only first-level base city in the northeastern region today. Not to mention king-level potential spiritual pets, even upper-level king-level potential spiritual pets exist, so there is no problem.

But where would Grandpa get the money to buy a king-level potential spirit pet, especially the method and resources for its potential evolution?

Even though the highest bloodline potential of the above-mentioned spiritual pets is only the fourth level of the king, the price of a complete set of spiritual pets is at least more than 30 million.

As the only two members of the family, even though Ye Mo is only eighteen years old, he is very clear about the status of the family's assets.

Currently, the family has three main industries. One is the giant bear breeding base, where dozens of gray spirit bear cubs are born every year. As cubs with the potential to be leaders, even if residents of Linghu District enjoy preferential treatment, the purchase contract will cost more than one million.

It seems like a lot, but there are dozens of cubs. First, deduct the ten that are given free of charge every year as contracts to outstanding senior high school students in Linghu District, and then deduct those that are not bought, and there are not many left.

Add to that the presence of more than 2,000 bears in the Giant Bear Base, and this amount of money won't last long. After all, most of these bears have reached high elite level, and the annual food cost alone is an astronomical figure.

Generally speaking, let alone making money, the giant bear breeding base has to lose a lot of money every year, and this is also their biggest money-eating monster.

The second industry is the Giant Bear Martial Arts School, which specializes in teaching the skills and techniques of the Gray Spirit Bear and its evolved forms. It can make a little money every year, but compared with the consumption of the breeding base, it is just a drop in the bucket.

The third industry is the Earth Construction Company, which is mainly responsible for construction and real estate. It is one of their family's main sources of income. The staff are the rock bears in the breeding base. They master the power of the earth and are very good at construction. Not only are they fast in construction, but the strength and safety of the buildings are also very high.

Currently, nearly 80% of the new buildings in the entire Linghu District were built by them, including the northeastern city wall. But even if these three industries were added together, the annual net income minus the expenses of Grandpa's cultivation was actually not enough to cover the expenses.

However, my grandfather has another identity, the chief security officer of Linghu District. This is a position that can generally only be held by the strongest person in Linghu District. His main task is to protect the safety of Linghu District and resist the invasion of foreign beasts from the northeast.

Linghu District is a border area, so the money that this location can earn every year is unusually high.

Because of these, their family’s annual income is quite good.

Under normal circumstances, the cost of a potential king spirit pet is acceptable after waiting for a few years.

However, these are all normal situations. Ye Mo knew clearly that last year, in order to make a special evolution for his pet, his grandfather spent a huge amount of money to buy a variety of fifth-order king-level resources and two sixth-order upper-level king-level resources. In the end, the evolution failed and he barely saved the pet's life.

So now my family has no money at all, or we even owe a lot of money.

Ye Mo, somewhat confused, asked, "Grandpa, our family doesn't have that much money, right?"

Ye Ruitang forced a smile and said, "Money is not a problem. I have negotiated with Bingdu before, and I can get a loan at any time."

Ye Mo was surprised and asked, "Loan? Why? Besides, Grandpa, if you really want to help me buy a potential king spirit pet, you can wait another year or two until we have money. There's no need to take out a loan."

Considering his age, contracting a potential king spirit pet a year or two later will not have much impact on his future.

Of course, this is based on the premise that he has not awakened his talent. As for him now, to be honest, Ye Mo no longer looks down on those spiritual pets on paper. Not only are they expensive, but their potential is not that great. Now he is asked to take out a loan to buy them, which is a huge loss.

Ye Ruitang sighed helplessly. How could he not know all this? There was nothing he could do. Maybe he shouldn't have taken a gamble last year, but if he didn't, he would never have another chance in the future.

"Xiao Mo, you have also become a beastmaster. There are some things I should tell you."

"The reason I'm preparing to take out a loan is because if I don't take out a loan now, I might not be able to get one in a year or two. If I want to buy it for you by then, I don't know how long it will take."

Facing his grandfather's serious expression, Ye Mo was stunned. How could he not get a loan? Although his family was in debt, with the income of the construction company and his position as the district's chief security officer, he shouldn't be unable to get a loan.

Ye Ruitang explained seriously: "You should be familiar with the Snow Leopard Breeding Base."

"Ever since Old Man Liu died in battle ten years ago, our relationship with Liu Jirong, who has now inherited the position, has been very bad."

"Two years ago, he obtained a special evolution resource and used it to perform a special evolution on his main pet. It was successful. You should know about this."

Ye Mo nodded. This incident caused quite a stir at the time, and it was the only thing students in the school were discussing every day.

Ye Ruitang continued, "It's unclear where he got those resources, but there's no doubt he's short of money."

"In our Linghu District, if someone like him wants to make a lot of money, the fastest way is to become the chief security officer of our Linghu District."

"Huh?" After hearing this, if he still couldn't figure it out, he would be really stupid. Ye Mo said anxiously: "That means he wants to challenge your position, Grandpa."

Ye Ruitang nodded and said, "That's right. He had already made some moves last year. He is also the manager of the spiritual pet breeding base. In terms of other conditions, I don't have much of an advantage. In the end, I will most likely have to fight him to decide this position."

"As for his Howling Moon Giant Tiger, although its race level is only the second level of the King, even the weakest King race is still a King, and its talents are naturally stronger than those of lower races."

"Even though I'm not optimistic about his spirit pet being able to break through to the King level, there's no problem for it to break through to the late Commander level within the next one or two years."

"When the fight breaks out, I'll probably lose."

After hearing this, Ye Mo thought about it carefully and felt that it was indeed true.

His grandfather currently has only three living spirit pets. The highest-level one failed to evolve last year and is still recovering. The other two are of too low a level to fight.

However, Ye Mo raised his head, looked at the other party with his piercing eyes, and said, "Grandpa, maybe I have a way."
