Beast Taming: the More the Better Chapter 150 - 121: Resource Production? A New Industry! The Terrifying Cost of Breeding! (Alliance Leader Bonus)

Su Ping had been thinking earlier. Although buying Pet Beasts for the botanical garden, the Undead basement, and the Forest Wolf packs required money, it was nothing compared to the cost of purchasing aquatic Pet Beasts for the artificial lake.

Even with the Beast Tamer Legions present, there wouldn’t be too many Pet Beasts coming in and out of the connection point between the Lingxi River and West Dragon Lake.

But that’s relative to the entirety of Jianghai Province and the Lingxi River, which flows through both Jianghai and Huaiyang Provinces.

In fact, as one of the main waterways leading to the sea, how many aquatic Pet Beasts pass through the Lingxi River daily?

Su Ping’s gaze was clearly too intense.

Dong Muyun finally snapped out of her excitement. When she noticed Su Ping’s fervent gaze, her eyelids twitched.

"Su Ping, you shouldn’t need this, right? Isn’t Heart of Woods mainly focused on the Forest Wolf cultivation industry?"

Su Ping chuckled,

"To be honest, I’ve already bought all the land behind Yun Tian, including the banks of the Lingxi River and that deserted mountain five kilometers away. I was planning to dig an artificial lake on the land behind Yun Tian that connects to the Lingxi River. Otherwise, why would I have cleared out the aquatic Pet Beasts near the Lingxi River that might harbor aggressive intentions?"

Dong Muyun pursed her lips,

"The problem is, I discovered this Rainbow Coral, and Yunning is still down there..."

Su Ping shifted his gaze from the Rainbow Coral—seen through Yunning’s perspective—back to Dong Muyun and blinked.

"But, as I just said, I’ve bought all the land deeds for this area. According to Article Nine of the Dragon Nation’s Land Protection Law..."

"..."

Dong Muyun clenched her fists, wishing she could punch this smug brat who was so easily rattling off the land protection law.

Dong Muyun took a slow, deep breath.

"How about this: you’ve always wanted a Mechanical Core, right? Tianyun Group will offer two billion, plus a Mechanical Core, in trade. That should be sufficient, shouldn’t it?"

However, Su Ping shook his head again.

"Your cultivation base is only so big. Even if you manage to build an artificial lake, getting it to a few kilometers in diameter would be a feat. Using this Rainbow Coral on it would be an extravagant waste, wouldn’t it?!"

Dong Muyun was exasperated.

The area behind Yun Tian was only a few kilometers from the Lingxi River at most.

Su Ping didn’t even blink,

"I’ve changed my mind. I’ve decided to expand the artificial lake’s scale. I’ll directly connect the area behind Yuntian Resort to the Lingxi River and then extend it southward. It will form a large, Taiji-shaped artificial lake with the Lingxi River as the dividing line. I conservatively estimate its diameter to be about twenty kilometers."

Dong Muyun was out of options.

She sighed helplessly. Seeing Dong Muyun looking defeated and ready to give up, Su Ping quickly said,

"Look, we’re in the same boat now. Besides, you hold shares in Heart of Woods; nominally, you’re the second-largest shareholder after my family! If Heart of Woods becomes powerful, wouldn’t that be much better than Tianyun Group? You’re the chairperson of Tianyun Group, but it’s not entirely yours, is it? Your Dong Family has so many brothers and sisters. What if someone else takes over? Wouldn’t all your efforts just be paving the way for someone else?"

Su Ping had laid it all out.

Dong Muyun, however, just glared at this brat who was gloating after getting his way.
