Super God Pet Shop

Chapter 259 Closing the Door at the Drop of a Hat (Fourth Update, thanks to 'DaDaGuai001' for the generous donation)

"Are all the seats filled?"

The young man was taken aback.

The people in line behind Su Ping were also surprised when they heard what he said.

There are still so many people in line, and it's still early, only a little past nine o'clock, yet they're saying the seats are full and they're no longer accepting pets?

And some pet shops even close their doors and refuse customers?!

"I'm sorry, everyone please go back." Su Ping bowed slightly to express his apology, after all, he had made people queue up for nothing.

Seeing Su Ping's attitude, some of the resentful people were at a loss for words. In any other store, they would have already made a scene, but here... the intimidating presence of the Hellfire Candle Dragon at the entrance was too great.

This is no ordinary shop. If you anger the shopkeeper and get bitten by that Hellfire Dragon Beast, you're dead.

Moreover, this is a slum, not the stable uptown area. If something really happens, who will be responsible?

"Never mind, let's go."

"Boss, what time do you open for business tomorrow?"

"How many people do you receive each day? I'll come earlier next time."

Some people left, while others inquired about Su Ping's opening time for the next day.

Su Ping was a little stunned by the question. He really didn't have a specific time to open the shop. In other words, he would open the shop whenever he woke up.

As for when he will wake up... he himself can't predict it. After all, he has to work overtime at night to breed pets so that he can return the bred pets to their rightful owners the next day and make room for them.

"The shop opens... in the morning, around ten o'clock," Su Ping estimated, then said uncertainly.

Hearing Su Ping's uncertain tone, some of the people waiting for an answer were speechless. If it weren't for the dragon beast at the entrance, this shop would seem extremely unreliable.

"Xiao Tang, see the guest out."

Su Ping said to Tang Ruyan.

Tang Ruyan looked at Su Ping as if he were an idiot. Wasn't he just saying he wanted to open a shop and make money? Now it's only nine o'clock and he wants to rest. Are you kidding me?

So far, she hasn't met anyone who recognizes her.

After a whole day, she had essentially worked for Su Ping for nothing.

I thought that if I could just hold on a little longer, I would meet someone who appreciates my talent, but Su Ping said he needed to rest.

You're so young and you're already taking a break so early, you must have kidney deficiency!

She was furious, but dared not vent her anger. She silently fumed as she saw the customers off one by one, finding these clueless fellows utterly displeasing.

As they were leaving, several of them asked Tang Ruyan for her contact information, but she just rolled her eyes at them and brushed them off.

You didn't even recognize who I am, and you still want my contact information?!

roll!

……

"Brother, isn't this restaurant quite big? Why do you say it's full?"

Su Lingyue came closer, looking at Su Ping with a puzzled expression.

"You don't understand, go back and rest."

"you……"

Su Lingyue, who wanted to argue, was dragged away by Wu Guansheng. It was rare for Su Ping to close the shop early, which made Wu Guansheng very happy. He didn't care whether Su Ping made money or not, since Su Ping had assigned him the task of teaching Su Lingyue.

He can leave once he completes his task.

By closing early, he would have more time to teach Su Lingyue, instead of wasting time in the shop.

After all the customers had left the store, Su Ping went outside and was immediately shocked to see that the once quiet and deserted street was now packed with people, completely surrounded by a crowd.

In the distance, many people were taking pictures with their communicators.

With his exceptional eyesight, Su Ping noticed that there were some cameras among them, suggesting they were media reporters.

"Is the impact that big...?"

Su Ping hadn't expected GG to spread so quickly. It had only been publicized today, and there were already so many people involved. Wouldn't there be even more tomorrow?

He suddenly felt immense pressure. It seemed he needed to hurry up and train the pet beast, as tomorrow would likely be another packed day.

However, once tomorrow is over, he will be able to accumulate enough energy to upgrade the spirit pool.

Su Ping beckoned and sent a telepathic message to the Purgatory Candle Dragon Beast, instructing it to enter.

The Purgatory Candle Dragon Beast swayed its body and snorted, somewhat dissatisfied with the ants that had gathered around it. However, due to Su Ping's restraint, it could not attack and could only let these ants swarm around it like flies.

Boom, boom.

It turned and went up the steps into the store.

The crowd gathered on the street gasped in surprise when they saw the Hellfire Dragon Beast move.

Some of the bolder people who stood at the front turned green with fright and hurriedly retreated.

When they realized that the Hellfire Dragon Beast had turned around and gone into the shop, the frightened crowd breathed a sigh of relief.

"Why did you take away the Hellfire Dragon Beast?"

"I haven't seen enough yet!"

"What happened? So many people suddenly came out of the store earlier. Did something happen inside?"

"I heard they were sold out and closed, but will reopen tomorrow."

"Sold out? Holy crap, what time is it?!"

"No way! I came here because of GG! Wasn't Mu Shuangwan's GG promoting the place today? And this shop is closed on the day of the promotion?!"

"By the way, what time do you open tomorrow?"

"Who knows? There was no notification."

……

The onlookers were abuzz with discussion.

Once the shop doors were closed, even those who were slow to realize it knew that the shop was closed for the day.

In such a lively atmosphere, they actually closed the door without a word...

Everyone was speechless. Wasn't the owner of this shop being far too capricious?!

Several figures gathered together in the crowd.

"Old Zhou, it seems we're late."

"I just asked a few people who came out, and they said it's closed and will reopen tomorrow."

"No way! I finally made it here! I even canceled my family meeting tonight!"

"What's going on with this store? So many people are gathered at the entrance, and they just close down like that? Don't they want to make money?"

The group looked at each other, somewhat bewildered.

They had come all the way from the upper town, only to be turned away at the door.

"Forget it, come back tomorrow, Lao Zhou. I'll come first thing tomorrow morning and save you a spot," one of the young men said.

The young man called Lao Zhou glanced at him, patted him on the shoulder, and said, "Thank you for your hard work."

After saying that, he glanced at the shop's signboard and said, "This shop really has a temper. Not only is it located in such a dilapidated slum, but it also operates like this. It's really an eye-opener for me."

……

As time passed, the crowd gathered outside the store gradually dispersed.

Some drove directly back to the upper city, while others stayed at nearby hotels.

The restaurants and other businesses on the street had never seen anything like it before. They all converted into restaurants or hotels, freeing up their rooms for these distinguished guests from the upper district.

Everyone on the street knew that a big shot had appeared there, and they all benefited from it.

The shop is closed.

It's a perfectly normal thing, but it happened to the Xiaotaoqi Pet Shop, which has garnered a lot of attention today, and it has once again become a trending topic, spreading throughout the Heilongjiang intranet.

Some bystanders who hadn't arrived yet, or those on their way, were stunned by the news.

It was only nine o'clock, and the Little Rascal Pet Shop, which was packed with people, actually... closed its doors and went out of business right under everyone's noses!

Isn't this money appealing?

The previously high-profile GG, with its comprehensive promotion and inclusion in various popular dramas... I thought such a big effort was aimed at making a fortune, but now, just as the business was gaining momentum, it has suddenly closed down for the holidays.

Boss, how meticulous are you about your work-rest schedule?!

Below the news article were images captured by media at the scene, showing a huge crowd outside the shop, even more lively than a concert.

In such a bustling atmosphere, other stores would normally stay open all night. Why wouldn't they capitalize on the hype and make a killing?!

As a result, this store simply and brazenly... closed down.

They simply shut out the enthusiasm of countless customers outside the store.

You are cold-hearted, ruthless, and too willful!

……

Still four updates a day, 10,000 words, or more accurately, around 11,000 words... It's rare to see such enthusiasm, so I'm continuing to ask for monthly votes!!
