Not only the people present, but the elfins were also listening to Zhang Zian's explanation.
Everyone had their own eyes. The same words had different feelings in the ears of different people and elves.
In the eyes of parents, children grew up in the blink of an eye, not to mention cats that grew several times faster than humans. When you were still immersed in the memory of it being a fluffy ball when you first bought it home, it had already grown at a shocking speed into a cat that needed to be sterilized.
In fact, Zhang Zian was also improvising, mainly because he had some feelings and feelings for Fina and Cleopatra during his time in Egypt.
He looked back at a display cabinet in the corner of the shop, where there was a plaster sculpture of Cleopatra, the one he had bought from the Khan el-Khalili market. She stared in the direction of the cat tree with a thoughtful face, and Fina also looked up at her at the same time.
Zhao Qi did not get a real reliable explanation, but she did not need to explain and would not speculate anymore, because she knew that Lan Lan was protecting her in its own way, and that was enough.
She picked up the shopping bag and handbag that had been put on the ground because her hands were sore, and was about to leave.
"Ah, yes, there is one more thing that you misunderstood," Zhang Zian added. Zhang Zian added, "You said that Lan Lan has grown up, but in fact, it hasn't. The British Shorthair's puberty period is longer than that of most other cats. Most cats only need one year to reach adulthood, but the British Shorthair needs three years to reach adulthood, so Lan Lan is still a child."
"Really?" Zhao Qi was surprised and happy.
"Yes," Zhang Zian replied affirmatively. Zhang Zian replied affirmatively, "If someone tells you that cats mature in a year, then you don't have to hesitate. You can just turn around and leave, because the person who said this must be a layman, or a layman pretending to be an expert. If you don't even know such a common exception like the British Shorthair, in the eyes of a real expert, you will laugh your head off."
"Ahem!"
Wang Qian and Li Kun repeatedly coughed, reminding Zhang Zian not to say anything more. They had also introduced it to customers before. Wasn't this a slap in the face?
"That … Excuse me, is only the British Shorthair's development period this long?" Wang Yan asked curiously.
"Not only that. Ragdolls are the same." Zhang Zian gestured for them to look at the Ragdoll kittens that were playing in the shop. "Ragdoll kittens are large domestic cats, and they also need about three years to grow. Some customers buy Ragdoll kittens because they think they are cute, but they don't expect Ragdoll kittens to grow so big and heavy. That's why I always remind my customers that Ragdoll cats can grow up to 20 kilograms when they're fully grown. Don't underestimate the size of Ragdoll cats. "
Wang Yan and Zhou Jiena, as college students who have just left school, have no social experience at all. They don't have an accurate concept of how heavy 20 pounds is.
It wasn't just them. In fact, many people didn't have any personal experience with the number 20 kilograms.
The solution was simple.
Zhang Zian gestured for Wang Qian to go to the kitchen on the second floor and bring down a 20-pound bag of rice.
"Try lifting it and see how heavy it is," he said.
Wang Yan and Zhou Jiena were both thin girls. They tried to lift the rice bag … If they clenched their teeth, they could barely lift it, but if they wanted to pick up the rice bag like Wang Qian, they couldn't do it.
"It's so heavy …"
They tried to imagine a big cat that weighed 20 kilograms, but in their minds, they kept thinking of animals like leopards and tigers.
"Ragdoll cats are beautiful, but choosing Ragdoll cats means that it will be difficult to pick them up after three years," Zhang Zian said. "In addition, there's also the American Shorthair."
"Wait a minute! Master, we don't study much. Don't lie to us! "Wang Qian and Li Kun were the first to express their dissatisfaction.
Li Kun said, "My family has raised an American Shorthair, and it won't grow after one year!"
Wang Qian nodded in agreement. "Master, you're addicted to lying, aren't you?"
Zhao Qi's worries had been resolved, and she was relaxed. As a bystander, she was happy to see such a plot of internal strife.
Zhou Jiena and Wang Yan were confused. Ordinary employees wouldn't dare to challenge the shop owner like this, right? For example, when they first joined the company, not to mention facing the big boss, they were even trembling in front of the small leaders. When they were scolded, they didn't even dare to breathe, let alone refute, even if they thought they were right. Since the beginning of their internship, they had been instilled with the concept that "superiors and customers are always right." Sometimes, they felt like robots that only knew how to nod and bow.
It seemed that the employer-employee relationship in this shop was very harmonious …
Zhang Zian calmly expressed that he wouldn't make such a low-level mistake. It was better to say that he deliberately exposed the flaw, and sure enough, the two idiots, Wang Qian and Li Kun, easily took the bait.
"Do you think that only this kind of cat is called the American Shorthair?" He pointed at the American Shorthair kittens that were running around in the shop.
Wang Qian and Li Kun's brains hadn't processed it yet. They thought that Zhang Zian was referring to the American Shorthair with different fur colors, and subconsciously said, "Even if the fur color is different, it is still an American Shorthair …"
"Don't you know? The so-called 'American Shorthair' is actually the abbreviation of two kinds of cats. One is the 'American Shorthair Cat,' and the other is the 'American Shorthair Cat.' "Zhang Zian revealed his real answer.
"Ah? There is this kind of cat? "
Wang Qian and Li Kun were very confused. It was the first time they had heard this strange name.
"Of course there is. Just because you don't know it doesn't mean it doesn't exist. " Zhang Zian smiled and said, "The American Shorthair Cat is also a kind of cat with a very long development period. It also needs three years of full development period. The American Shorthair Cat's hair is medium length, not short hair. Only the tail is short. It is also a new cat species, and it was just recognized by the CFA in 2000. It is said that their short tail is the result of a genetic mutation. "
"Master, you definitely did it on purpose!" Wang Qian and Li Kun suddenly realized that Zhang Zian had deliberately used the abbreviation "American Shorthair" to confuse the concept and set a trap, and they had unknowingly become a negative example of showing off.
"Haha! Take it as a lesson for you. "Zhang Zian didn't deny that he did it on purpose.
Under normal circumstances, because the term "American Shorthair" had been default to "American Shorthair Cat," when referring to the American Shorthair Cat, which was relatively rare in China, in order to avoid misunderstanding, the full name should be used.
Zhou Jiena and Wang Yan listened attentively. Although they thought that cats should have long tails, short-tailed cats were not cute at all, and they didn't know why this kind of cat was so popular, after entering this pet shop, it was definitely an eye-opener for them, and they heard a lot of pet knowledge that they didn't know before. It seemed that entering this shop to buy pets was the right choice.
