Beast World: A Fragile Beauty Blessed with Many Children Chapter 363 - 362: Did You Really Hear That?
Si Shuo imdiately lowered her head, wrote a note, and placed it in her space.
Ji Liang seed to sense sothing and paused. He glanced inward at the note on the Space Stone Table. His eyes narrowed as he sized up the man before him. "Hiss... Excuse ," he asked lightly, "are you really a Bull Beastman? Why do I sll a hint of sheep on you?"
The man slapped his chest. "Sir Ji Liang, just look at ! With this build and these looks, I’m definitely a Bull Beastman!"
"In that case, would you mind showing us your Beast Form?" Ji Liang asked, the corners of his lips curling up.
The man froze, then said with so annoyance, "What are you trying to say? Why would I need to lie to you about my Beast Form? The difference between a Bull Beastman and a sheep beastman isn’t that big anyway.
"I’ve got plenty of strength, I’m not afraid of hard work or getting tired, and I’m good in a fight. Aside from not being much of a talker, I don’t have any real flaws to pick at."
"Sir, it’s a simple matter of seeing your Beast Form. Why are you making such a fuss? We emphasized during our recruitnt that any beastman who applies to our shop must provide truthful information.
"You’re being so secretive about your Beast Form. Is there so secret you can’t tell everyone? This concerns the future safety of our custors and the quality of our service. I’m sorry, but we can’t hire you."
"Are you crazy? We’re here to work. What does our Beast Form have to do with anything? Here in Beast City, we rarely ever have to use our Beast Forms. I’m not so Rogue Beast, and I’m not so Evil Beast with a wanted poster out for , so why can’t I compete fairly with everyone else?" The man’s eyes were red with anger. He clenched his fists and said, "I think you’re just trying to give a hard ti on purpose. If you’ve got the guts, let’s fight..."
Ji Liang chuckled softly. "Hiss... You haven’t even started working at the shop, and you’re already showing such a foul temper. Is that attitude really suitable for working at our Good Fortune? I’m afraid you’ll scare the custors away."
"I... I’m just trying to show you what I’m capable of," the man said, gritting his teeth and suppressing his anger.
"Mother, he’s not from Guangshou City. He wants to live in our shop," Little Hong, who was always in her Hunting Falcon Pup form when outside, whispered. She fluttered onto Si Shuo’s shoulder to speak to her quietly.
"How do you know?" Si Shuo asked curiously.
"I heard him. He said it himself," Little Hong answered, tilting her head. "He also said that the reason he ca to Guangshou City is because he got into huge trouble back in his own tribe. During a tribal exchange conference, he got into a conflict and gored the other tribe’s Young Master through the neck."
Si Shuo shuddered slightly. ’We can’t use him! We absolutely can’t hire a beastman like that!’
She quickly scribbled another note for Ji Liang to see.
Ji Liang glanced inward at the ssage and remained firm. "Next."
"No! If you don’t hire today, I’m not leaving!" The man crossed his arms and stood in front of the table, blocking the other applicants and resorting to shaless tactics.
"Are you so sure I can’t do anything about you?" Ji Liang’s face darkened.
"I’ve heard Guangshou City has a lot of rules and doesn’t allow private brawls. Tsk, I guess it’s true.
"You’re running a business here. You’re all about harmony and good fortune. There’s no need to get angry over a guard applicant like and disrupt your shop’s hiring and grand opening, right?" The man sounded as if he had Ji Liang right where he wanted him.
Ji Liang smiled. "Actually, we’re not afraid of our shop being affected. Since you’re blocking the way, today’s recruitnt session is officially over..."
"No, Sir Ji Liang! You haven’t even asked about us yet! Let this neither-bull-nor-sheep beastman go wherever he wants, just get him out of our way... This is the first ti I’ve ever seen soone try to force a boss to hire them..."
"Hah, so this guy’s banking on the fact we can’t fight here? If you’ve got guts, let’s settle this in the ring!"
The man ignored the voices behind him, standing his ground without moving an inch.
Si Shuo’s eyes darted around. She poked her head out with a smile and said, "To all the beastn here to apply, your test has just arrived! Whoever can get rid of this troublemaker will beco our shop’s new Junior Steward, with a starting salary of two hundred Level 6 Crystal Stones!"
The mont she said that, the crowd exchanged glances and lunged at the man.
If only one or two had rushed him, the man could have easily dodged or even knocked them back with his chest.
But now, with a whole group of beastn swarming him, their overwhelming presence made the previously arrogant man’s legs turn to jelly. To make matters worse, he heard soone in the crowd yell that they should strip all his fur off to see if he had any sha and if he’d still dare to block the way.
’So vicious! So what if they have Crystal Stones?’ he thought. He had no choice but to turn and run.
The crowd was left wanting more. "Why’d he run so fast? I didn’t even get close enough to pull his fur out..."
"I thought he was so tough, but he was nothing special after all! He just acted like a thug because he knew we couldn’t fight in the city. Hah, well, as long as we don’t kill him, stripping him of his fur is perfectly normal..."
"Sigh, so cowardly. How could he possibly be a Bull Beastman? I was hoping he’d put up a fight so I could beco the Junior Steward. How boring..."
The applicants got back in line, chattering with a mix of excitent and disappointnt.
Ji Liang smiled and gave Si Shuo a thumbs-up before shouting to the crowd, "Did you all see that? No matter how tough a beastman is, they’re all afraid of a crowd like us.
"From now on, all the employees in our shop will be supervised by all of you. If anyone doesn’t do a good enough job, they’ll be replaced by a more suitable person from this crowd..."
Everyone nodded and agreed. Those who got hired would definitely have to study hard and work diligently to avoid being replaced. Even those who didn’t get a position would keep a close eye on the shop’s staff, ready to step in as a substitute at any mont.
The recruitnt continued, with Little Hong occasionally muttering in Si Shuo’s ear that this one was a disguised Rogue Beast, or that one had a bad character.
Si Shuo munched on a piece of fruit with one hand and, with the other, wrote down what Little Hong said, placing the note on the Space Stone Table.
"Wait a minute!" Si Shuo suddenly stopped writing and turned to Little Hong. "Hong, did you really hear all these things? Never mind the others, but that takin who was pretending to be a Bull Beastman—he committed such a cri. He would do everything to hide it. How could he possibly tell soone else, letting you overhear?"
Little Hong blinked. "But Mother, I really did hear it. They were all just muttering to themselves, not talking to anyone else."
Si Shuo fell silent. ’So, Hong, you could totally be a hiring manager with your Father, Ji Liang.’
Little Hong nodded with a smile. "I think it’ll work!"
Si Shuo held her by her wings, looking at the cute and well-behaved Hunting Falcon Pup, feeling both excited and amazed. ’What do you an, "it’ll work"? Hiring is a complex skill.’
Little Hong huffed. "Mother, don’t look down on . I’m not so clueless, months-old human baby. With helping Father Ji Liang, he’ll be unstoppable..."
