Becoming wealthy by raising furry animals

Chapter 1 Buy a Cat

"Look, look, these are two newborn puppies for fifteen copper coins."

"Sir, take a look at the flowers I grow at home. They are fresh and have just bloomed. You can keep them for a while if you buy them."

"Come and see my fish. I caught this fish in the lake next to Jingyue Temple. It's very spiritual. Buy it back to protect your house and family."

Ban You walked on the street with her arms folded, and everything in front of her made her a little dazzled.

She was wearing a brown linen dress, with a faint smell of fish and sea water on her body, her hair was a little messy, and her eyes were full of numbness towards everything in front of her.

"System, I've been here for two days. Are you sure I can meet my destiny here and complete my first mission?"

Ban You remained calm on the surface, but her mind was sending brain waves to her system.

"Don't worry, although I'm a new master, my skills are not. I've calculated it all. Your opportunity lies on this street."

Ban You had no choice but to walk around in circles. This was already her thirteenth walk. She had never walked such a long distance on her way to work before she came here. It was so tiring!
"Hey, got it, got it! Look to your right and front, that stall owner is selling a cat. Buy it!"

"you sure?!"

"Yes!"

"Mind you, we're in ancient times now, so some professionalism is needed! You idiot!"

After Ban You finished talking to the system, he walked towards the location the system had just mentioned.

When she got closer, she found that the stall was new. The owner was a young woman wearing a cloth dress. She must be from a well-off family. There were two cages on the stall. In one cage was a snow-white rabbit, and in the other cage was an orange kitten that looked to be just over a month old.

"Sister, how much do you sell this raccoon?"

"Sister, this is the cub of my own cat slave. If you want it, I'll give it to you for five cents."

Ban You was a little hesitant when she heard the price. She had come all the way from Lishui Town to Yuncheng and had almost spent all the money she had. What's more, she went straight to the Flower and Bird Street and had not yet decided on food and accommodation. Five cents really put a lot of pressure on her.

"Sister, my raccoon is an expert at catching mice. Buy it and raise it up. Within three days, all the mice in your house will be gone. Trust me!"

The stall owner's confident look made Ban You dream back to the live broadcast room where she was selling goods. She studied the stall owner's words, remembered the task the system told her, and finally gritted her teeth, paid the money and took the cat.

The lady who sold the cat was also a kind person. Knowing that she didn't have much money, she gave her the cat food and cage she brought with her.

Ban You was walking on the road with the cat, and the sound of the system sending rewards popped up in his mind.

"Congratulations to the host for completing the first mission: obtaining a kitten. Reward: 100 copper coins, 10 kilograms of cat food, a litter box, and two cat toys."

"Of this reward, the copper coin is the only one I can use right now. The rest is yours for now."

"Host, don't worry. I've calculated it. The cheapest house in Yuncheng is in the East Market, and it only costs one hundred coins a month." The system said to Ban You in a tone that was about to praise me.

When Ban You heard this, his eyes widened, he looked at the cat in his hand in disbelief, and questioned the system with gritted teeth.

"Thinking about it, this money has just arrived in my hands and I have to spend it again!"

The system heard that Ban You's tone was wrong, and after laughing twice, it no longer appeared no matter what Ban You said to it.

Ban You had no other choice but to curse the system before carrying the cat cage to the East Market to rent a place. After a careful search, she finally found the place in a secluded place that the system had mentioned, for a hundred coins a month.

The owner of the house is an elderly man over 70 years old. As he is old, he wants to live with his son and daughter-in-law, so he plans to sell his dilapidated old house. However, the location of the house in East Market is not good, and no one has come to buy it for a long time, so he has to rent it out instead.

Coincidentally, Banyou arrived just as I finished the revision.

"Although this house looks shabby, it has everything in it. Before it was sold, I often came here to clean it, and it's always spotless. The yard is a little small, but you can grow vegetables there."

Ban You took a closer look. It was a three-room brick house with a bedroom, a living room, a kitchen, and a small courtyard. Although small, it was more than enough for one person. Both of them were straightforward people. After signing the paperwork and paying the money, the old man left with his family who had come to pick him up.

Ban You sighed as he looked at the somewhat shabby but still clean yard and placed the kitten he had bought in the bedroom. The kitten was still small and was now sleeping soundly in its cage, its slightly moist nose moving from time to time, which was quite adorable.

She tapped the kitten's head gently with her finger, sighed, and said, "You'll have to live a hard life with me from now on. When I have money, I'll buy you meat."

"What should I call you?" Ban You looked at the kitten, thinking about what name to give it. "I'll call you Laicai. If I call you that for a long time, I'll become Laicai too!"

Ban You stood up and stretched. Then he smelled the lingering fishy odor on his body, wrinkled his nose, and quickly boiled a bucket of hot water and took a comfortable bath.

After working hard for most of the day, the moon drove away the sun and came out.

It was summer, and the nights were still a bit warm, so there was no need to worry about the kitten getting cold. Ban You moved the kitten to the side of his bed, played with it for a while, and then lay down on the bed, thinking about his experiences over the past few days.

She was originally a veterinarian, but when she woke up, she found herself traveling to the fictional Zhou Dynasty. The system told her that she was in Lishui Town, far away from Shangjing, and she was an orphan fishing.

If she wants to go back, she must become the richest person in the Zhou Dynasty. The system will also give her some tasks to obtain the rewards she needs to help her become the richest person.

The first step to becoming the richest woman was to rent a house in Yuncheng, eight hundred miles away from Lishui Town, and buy a cat. So she sold her house in Lishui Town and took the sixty-two copper coins she earned to board the ship to Yuncheng.

"System, please tell me more about the situation in the Zhou Dynasty."

"Okay, host." The system flipped through its records and then said, "Host, people in the Zhou Dynasty were fond of keeping pets. Almost every household had a pet. Most of these pets were cats, dogs, and rabbits."

After listening to the system's introduction, Ban You nodded in understanding: "In other words, pet keeping was popular in the Zhou Dynasty. If I start my old business, wouldn't I be able to make a lot of money?"

"A good host!"

Ban You yawned, rubbed his tired eyes and said, "Time is money, let's get some sleep first."

The next morning, Ban You was awakened by a knock on the door. She rubbed her eyes and saw that the kitten was still sleeping, so she put on her clothes, went out and opened the door. Standing at the door was the landlord she had just met yesterday and a middle-aged woman.

"Girl, I may not be able to rent this house to you. You should pack up and find another place." The old man said apologetically.

"Why?" Ban You was still a little confused, but immediately came to his senses when he heard this.

The old man stood aside with a guilty look on his face, obviously forced to come here. Seeing that he didn't say anything, the woman standing next to him spoke.

"Miss, you can't blame us for going back on our word. We really have no other choice," the woman continued. "My child injured someone else's cat servant at the school yesterday, and they're insisting we pay him one ounce of silver. That's half a year's worth of our family's expenses, and we're really at our wit's end. We're thinking of using this house as collateral."

"But I just rented this house. Where can I find another one at this time?"

Ban You was also a little helpless. At this moment, the system, which had not appeared all night, suddenly issued a second task.

[Mission 2: Rescue the injured raccoon. Reward: Animal Mind Reading.]

"Animal mind reading? What is that?"

"Host, this is a great thing. With this, you can understand what all animals say, including but not limited to chickens, ducks, geese, cats, dogs, birds, fish, etc., and you can also know what they are thinking."

"So awesome!"

Ban You was thinking about the new task and looking at the two people in front of him, an idea came to his mind.

"Sister, I happen to know some medical skills. How about you take me to see that raccoon slave? If I can cure him, maybe you won't have to pay so much money?"

"This..." The woman thought for a moment, then looked up at Ban You, "Okay, then I'll take you there to have a look."
