Chapter 24: The Pandas Are Here Again
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Ning Fei placed his expedition equipment in Wang Hong’s store.
Other than equipment, there was something just as important.
It was a watch.
The price range for a watch could start from 10 yuan to branded watches that cost millions of yuan. It depended on the user’s needs.
For Ning Fei, he required a watch that could detect pressure, altitude, temperature, and position. It should also be waterproof to a depth of at least a hundred meters and be luminous at night for convenience.
A shop that specialized in branded and exclusive watches was on the street next to the club, so Ning Fei decided to pop by to have a look.
Ning Fei was good-looking, and the moment he stepped foot into the shop, a saleswoman rushed toward him.
“Hello. May I help you?” The saleswoman was a young girl in her twenties. As it was the summer vacation, she was most likely a university student working part-time.
As she gazed at Ning Fei, her eyes seemed to sparkle.
She had seen a variety of customers at the shop but had hardly ever met such a handsome young man, who was also lean and built.
The girl was sweet and pretty, and was considered the school belle in her faculty.
“I need a watch for outdoors,” Ning Fei said gently as he told her his requirements.
The girl kept staring at him before suddenly realizing that she had been ogling him blatantly. She hastily averted her gaze.
“Sure. The watches that fulfill your requirements are these…”
The salesgirl hurriedly brought out three watches for Ning Fei. He examined and scrutinized each one before he bought the most expensive one.
It cost him 80,000?yuan1.
The average cost of the shop’s watches was around several thousand yuan.
An outdoor watch that cost 80,000 yuan was considered a premium one of the highest quality.
Ning Fei knew that he couldn’t scrimp on this. A watch was of utmost importance for an expedition. Every yuan of the watch determined how accurate and precise it was. And these watches would have to be carefully designed and made. For an outdoor expedition, a single mistake could cause huge trouble.
When the salesgirl saw how nonchalantly Ning Fei had spent 80,000 yuan on the watch, her heart began to race.
“You’re a major customer. Would you be able to leave your contact?” The salesgirl knew that she had to seize an opportunity when it was presented to her.
“Contact number?” Ning Fei was perplexed. freewebnove l.com
“You can call me Xiaojuan. You’re our VIP customer as you’ve spent 80,000 yuan,” she rattled on.
Xiaojuan was pretty and sweet, and she was considered a beauty. Her intentions were also displayed clearly for anyone to see.
Ning Fei had understood this as he had been hit on by girls frequently.
“Sorry, but there isn’t a need.” Ning Fei shrugged before he left the shop.
Xiaojuan stared at his figure forlornly.
Ning Fei went to the mall to buy some comfortable sports outfits.
After he had purchased everything and grabbed a bite, he called Master Liu. He collected his equipment from Uncle Wang’s store and went back to the temple.
At 3:00 p.m., he started the livestream.
As expected, many of his supporters rushed to watch his webcast.
‘Host, where did you go just now? I missed you!’
‘Finally, you’re here! I’ve waited for so long…’
‘Haha, I can see my hubby again!’
‘Host, I want to see Sunny!’
The comments rushed in swiftly.
Ning Fei sat before a desk that had two metal suitcases on it.
One of the viewers asked,?‘Host, what is inside?’
Ning Fei adjusted his phone before he said, “This is the equipment I’ve bought for the expedition. Let me show you guys.”
Ning Fei opened the suitcases.
Then, the high-tech equipment met the viewers’ eyes.
‘Gosh. Host, what are you planning to do?’
‘This is too much. It’s like you’re a spy.’
‘It does seem as though it’s for some secret agent.’
‘Host, you have some fine treasures here!’
‘So professional!’
‘Awesome!’
Ning Fei was pleased with their comments.
He took out the equipment one by one to show the viewers.
Jiang Feng was also watching Ning Fei’s webcast.
When he had watched Ning Fei’s webcast for the first time, he felt that the fellow was extremely lucky to have found the white jade lingzhi and the Dendrobium devonianum.
After seeing how prepared Ning Fei was, he realized how much of a skilled and professional outdoor explorer he was.
This priest is indeed skilled!?Jiang Feng thought quietly to himself.
In the afternoon, Ning Fei introduced how he would be preparing for his outdoor expedition.
The city dwellers were all curious when they saw the equipment.
“Oh, one more thing to mention, if I want to rear a falcon, I have to apply for a license from the National Wildlife Protection Agency. I’ve done the submission, and I should receive news soon,” Ning Fei said.
‘You need a license for Little Falcon?’?someone asked.
Ning Fei grinned and said, “Falcons are the second class of animals that are under the protection of the country. It’s illegal to own one privately. If anyone were to sell or buy one, he or she would face a jail sentence.”
Someone added,?‘Oh, I remembered something. Someone had tried to sell bird eggs, and he was sentenced to jail for ten years. I think he was selling peregrine falcons.’
“I called the Agency the night I found Little Falcon. That’s why I could continue to take care of it. Tomorrow, I’m going to the mountains, so I’ll bring Little Falcon with me.”
Ning Fei held Little Falcon tenderly with a hand and showed it to the viewers.
Little Falcon was growing quickly, and its white down was sprouting, so its pink skin could hardly be seen anymore. Ning Fei didn’t know if this was because of its diet.
Ning Fei was in the midst of organizing his equipment when someone suddenly knocked on the back door.
Ning Fei knitted his eyebrows at the sound.
There were hills behind the back door, and the villagers would normally use the front door. No one had used the back door before.
Ning Fei rose to his feet to take a look through a gap. He saw something white and black holding out its paws. It was bumping the back door gently.
“Here again?”
Ning Fei chuckled helplessly.
The Inky Cloud Bamboo was almost ripe, and its scent was unique and sweet. This fragrance was light, and it refreshed one’s spirits.
Pandas were especially sensitive to this scent.
When the viewers saw that, they were intrigued.
Ning Fei explained casually, “It’s two huge pandas who are here for my Inky Cloud Bamboo.”
‘What? Pandas?!’
‘Host, bring them in!’
‘I want to see the pandas! I want to see them!’
‘Signing a petition for us to see the pandas!’
A flurry of comments came, and rewards filled the screen.
Jiang Feng couldn’t help but to send two rockets.
Ning Fei had painstakingly tended to the bamboo forest, but for the sake of the webcast, he opened the door.
Two black and white furry giants ambled in.
They went directly to the Inky Cloud Bamboo Forest and began to feast happily.
Ning Fei gazed at the pandas and shook his head helplessly.
He turned the screen to face the pandas, while he busied himself with other tasks.
