Looking at Zhao Qi and Liu Wenying, who were standing behind her, Zhang Zian was confused.
"What kind of rights do you have?" he asked.
Both of them came with cat bags. Obviously, they also brought the British Shorthair and Siamese cat that they had bought before.
"What kind of rights do you have? Why can other people's cats do stunts, but our cats can't? Are you discriminating against us or something? " Zhao Qi put the blame on them. "We thought your cats were good, and we promoted them to our neighbors. Why did you cheat us?"
Since Zhao Qi knew that the cats that other people bought from the Amazing Fate Pet Shop could do stunts, she immediately went upstairs to verify with Liu Wenying, but found that Liu Wenying's Siamese cat couldn't do stunts either. Zhao Qi wasn't a person who could be bullied, so she immediately dragged Liu Wenying to defend her rights.
Liu Wenying was much older, so she had her doubts. First of all, they didn't know if the videos on the Internet could be trusted. Even if they were true, so what? When they sold the cats, they didn't advertise that the cats had stunts. If they advertised, but our cats didn't, then we should fight for our rights. In fact, that's not the case. We didn't buy the cats for the stunts. There's no such thing as false advertising. Fighting for our rights is not justified!
Of course, Zhao Qi understood this, but she couldn't accept it. Why could the people who bought the cats later get the cats with stunts, but she couldn't buy them a few days earlier? Although Liu Wenying wasn't willing, she couldn't just let Zhao Qi drag her over.
When Liu Wenying bought the Siamese cat, Zhang Zian had given her good advice. Her daughter Yue Yue also liked that Siamese cat. Yue Yue probably wouldn't agree to change it. Although Liu Wenying came with them, she didn't help Zhao Qi.
Zhang Zian understood immediately. So that was what was going on.
He explained, "It's not discrimination, and I didn't cheat you. The cats you bought couldn't do stunts, because I hadn't trained them at that time. The cats I bought later could do stunts, but the prices increased. "
"What?" Zhao Qi opened her eyes wide in surprise. "The prices increased?"
"That's right. The prices of rice, vegetables, and houses are all rising. Why wouldn't the prices increase? Besides, my cat's price has risen because of the increase in its value. Of course, if you're not satisfied and feel that you've been cheated, I can give you a refund. Although the refund period has passed, the customer is the king. "
Zhao Qi was suddenly speechless. Before she came, she had prepared a lot of things in her mind. Originally, she had planned to threaten him with a refund. Who would have thought that he would ask for a refund himself?
What about a refund?
She couldn't bear to.
To her, Lan Lan was no longer a "commodity".
Every morning, Lan Lan woke her up with a wet tongue. When she went to work and left home, Lan Lan looked at her with reluctant eyes. When she was bullied in the company, Lan Lan would come back and talk to Lan Lan. Lan Lan had become a part of her life. Even if it was a British Shorthair that could do stunts, it would no longer be Lan Lan.
Liu Wenying sighed and pulled her from behind, implying that they should leave.
Zhang Zian changed his tone and said, "Or I can provide another form of compensation."
"What way?" Zhao Qi stared at him and asked.
"Our shop is going to introduce a membership system. If you become a member, I can provide a chance to upgrade stunts for free."
The unexpected development stunned Zhao Qi and Liu Wenying. They suspiciously looked at this shop that had a decoration style that was at least ten years behind the times. Could they really introduce a membership system like this? Was he planning to run away with the money?
"Ms. Liu, I remember I recommended the Spirit Curing Pet Clinic in the north, right?"
Liu Wenying nodded, "I went there once. I took my cat there to get bug repellent."
"Here's the thing. Our shop is going to cooperate with that shop. If you become a member of our shop, you can also enjoy discounts for bug repellent, immunization, physical examination, and medical treatment."
Liu Wenying was a little tempted. Her Siamese cat didn't just stay at home like Zhao Qi's British Shorthair. Her daughter Yue Yue often took the Siamese cat out to play. For Yue Yue's safety, regular bug repellent was inevitable.
"The money you charge into the membership card can be used to buy cat food and bathe the cat. It won't be wasted. The stunts will be free, "he added.
Zhao Qi shook her head and said, "There is no need. My cat food is imported from overseas. It's better than yours!"
Zhang Zian retorted, "That's not necessarily true! There are a lot of fake food from overseas. "
She said disapprovingly, "I buy it from the top sellers online. How can it be fake? Do you think everyone is stupid? I don't trust domestic products, and I don't want Lan Lan to eat it. "
Zhang Zian explained, "Unless it's sent directly from abroad or shipped, it's likely to be fake. Because the profit of importing fake cat food is too high, a large part of it is fake."
The pet food market was very chaotic. The credibility of domestic pet food had fallen to the freezing point, and the fake rate of imported pet food was very high.
In addition, from a legal perspective, the state had not formulated effective and reasonable standards and policies for pet food, which objectively exacerbated the chaos in the pet food market.
Some of Zhao Qi's clothes and shoes were bought from overseas, but she didn't know anything about cat food at all. All the stores advertised that their cat food was the favorite of cats, but some people said that cats liked to eat cat food because there were food attractants in the cat food. She didn't know what to do, so she had to follow the crowd and buy from the store with the highest sales. If something bad happened, it would be confiscated and destroyed.
She stubbornly said, "Anyway, I won't consider domestic cat food. I also know that direct mail from overseas is better. Foreign cat food is not expensive, but it's too heavy, and the shipping is too expensive. There is a risk that it will be confiscated and destroyed by customs if it's found. I only have one cat, Lan Lan. I don't have a few cats. If I buy too many at once, it will expire! "
After listening to her words, Zhang Zian felt that this seemed to be a business opportunity. If the pet shop could buy cat and dog food and sell it at a reasonable price, it would definitely attract many customers to sign up for membership.
However, it was not easy to find reliable channels abroad. The large foreign e-commerce companies did not care about his quantity, and the sellers on Taobao and eBay were also mixed. Zhang Zian did not have any relatives abroad. Several of his former college classmates had gone abroad, but they were all working hard in foreign countries. They did not have the time to help him buy pet food all day long.
The reliability and stability of the purchase channel were the most important. Online Japanese and Korean cosmetics were very profitable, but it was not so easy for ordinary people to make money. The most important reason was that there were no reliable purchase channels and customs channels.
After thinking for a long time, he still had no clue, so he asked Zhao Qi, "Assuming that our store can get authentic imported cat food in the future, and because our store will import a lot of cat food at once, the average shipping cost will be very low, and the retail price will be the same or even lower than the price you buy online. Then would you be willing to become a member of our store?"
Zhao Qi was startled and immediately asked, "How can you guarantee that it is authentic?"
"With the reputation of our store, of course. In addition, if our store really starts this business, we will definitely show reliable import and shipping certificates, so you don't have to worry about this. In this case, would you be willing to become a member? "
"If I can guarantee that it is authentic and cheaper than online, only a fool would not!" Zhao Qi said.
"Okay, that's all I need to hear!"
"Do you have a purchase channel?" Zhao Qi saw that he seemed to have a card up his sleeve, so she asked doubtfully.
"Not at the moment," Zhang Zian said truthfully.
"Then aren't you just talking nonsense?" Zhao Qi was disappointed.
Zhang Zian smiled, "Why would it be nonsense? Not having a purchase channel now doesn't mean that there won't be one in the future. After all, I am an insider in the pet industry. I know more about cat food than you do, and it is certainly more convenient for me to find a purchase channel than a layman like you. "
Liu Wenying said from the side, "In fact, I think it is best to give cats homemade cat food. It is safe and worry-free."
Zhao Qi said helplessly, "I also know that self-control is good, but I don't have time. I even buy my own food ready-made. I don't have time to make cat food. "
Liu Wenying was very enthusiastic and said, "Oh, you should have told me earlier. I don't have time on weekdays, but I make some cat food on weekends. Next time, I will make more. You can come and get it."
Zhao Qi was very grateful for her enthusiasm, but she knew that it was not a problem to go get it once or twice, but it was too cheeky to go get it all the time. This was just a cup of water on a burning cart of firewood.
