Zhao Qi and Song Bai came here after work. When they left, it was already late in the evening. Zhang Zian watched the workers decorate for a while, and then went back to the second floor.
He didn't think that Song Bai's vlog, which only had hundreds of views, could make any waves in the ocean of videos on YouTube. The most important thing was to get the 3,000 yuan, and he could have a braised egg for breakfast tomorrow.
"Master, as you ordered, we have moved the crib into your bedroom." Wang Qian and Li Kun just came out of the bedroom and reported to him.
"Well, thank you. We haven't opened for business yet, so there's not much to do. You can go back now. I won't keep you for dinner today. You'll be busy after the opening, and I'll give you a raise then. "Zhang Zian nodded and sent them away.
Wang Qian was eager to show his loyalty, "I'll go through fire and water for you!"
Zhang Zian had heard so much that he didn't respond to Wang Qian at all. When he was about to go back to the bedroom, Li Kun stopped him from behind.
"By the way, Master, I have something to tell you, but I don't know if I should tell you..." Li Kun said hesitantly, hesitating whether he should tell Zhang Zian that thing or not. He was worried that Zhang Zian would blame him for making a fuss over a minor issue and make Zhang Zian look down on him.
"What's the matter? Just say it. "Zhang Zian saw that Li Kun's expression was strange, so he stopped and didn't know what was going on.
Li Kun winked at Wang Qian, and Wang Qian immediately understood what Li Kun wanted to say.
"Master, a while ago, a man we didn't know stopped us on the road. It was the day you went out," Wang Qian said.
Zhang Zian was even more surprised than them, "Oh, really? Did he want to rob us of our money or sex? "
Li Kun said, "... Master, what are you thinking? How could he rob us of our money or sex?"
Zhang Zian became more and more confused. He didn't understand why someone would stop these two poor college students on the street. "Then why did he stop you? To give out leaflets or sell CDs? "
"Ahem! Master, no one is selling discs now … "Li Kun whispered as he looked around to make sure no one was around.
Wang Qian took over the conversation and said seriously, "Master, that person claimed to be a pet shop owner. He wanted to pay us to steal your cat training skills … Of course, we don't know anything about advanced animal taming skills. Even if we did, we would never tell anyone!" He pointed to the sky and made a vow.
Zhang Zian was interested and asked seriously, "Which pet shop is that person from?"
"This …" Wang Qian and Li Kun looked at each other. "We didn't ask …"
Li Kun held his head and tried to recall. "That person's surname is … Huang. Yes, his surname is Huang. His name is Huang Mingyu, right?"
"Yes, that's the name." Wang Qian testified from the side. "He was wearing a cheap suit and leather shoes. He looked ordinary and looked like a real estate agent."
"Oh, what else do you know?" Zhang Zian asked.
Wang Qian and Li Kun racked their brains, but they could not think of any other useful information. They could only answer truthfully, "We don't know anything else …"
Zhang Zian was slightly disappointed.
"Master, I'm sorry for my incompetence!" Wang Qian and Li Kun were embarrassed. If they had known this would happen, they would not have refused him outright. If they could get something out of him, they would have been praised in front of their master.
"Forget it. Even if you ask, he probably won't tell you." Zhang Zian pondered for a while. In fact, it was common for people in the same trade to spy on each other. He should have known that other people would be interested in the secrets of cat training.
"Master, what should we do?" Li Kun asked.
"Nothing. I'll eat and drink when I need to. I won't be able to sleep if I'm always on guard against these people," Zhang Zian said calmly. "If the sky wants to rain, and if the mother wants to get married, just let it be!"
Now he was very lucky that Wang Qian and Li Kun were incurable and would not be tempted by money to betray him. Otherwise, things would be troublesome. Stabbing people in the back was always the most disappointing.
Wang Qian and Li Kun exclaimed in their hearts, "Master is indeed Master. No wonder he is half a step to the Golden Core Stage. He never forgets to show off. This kind of calmness and ease in the face of danger is really not something an ordinary person can learn!" Huang Mingyu was just a small potato. He was not worthy of their master's attention.
"Master, we will leave now." They said goodbye to Zhang Zian.
"Okay, go." Zhang Zian waved his hand and temporarily put this matter behind him. He walked back to his bedroom.
As he said to Wang Qian and Li Kun, this kind of thing was very common. There was no need to worry about it. As long as his people were safe, flies could not bite seamless eggs.
According to Zhang Zian's request, Guo Dongyue connected the living room on the second floor with Zhang Zian's bedroom and rearranged the room. Finally, Xinghai, Old Time Tea and Richard could move in together, instead of staying on the first floor with the puppies and kittens. But there was a problem — Old Time Tea slept late, Xinghai got up early, and Richard was always squawking, making people unable to sleep. The sleepy Fina was on the verge of going berserk. If they didn't solve this problem, something bad would happen.
Old Time Tea and Xinghai were easy to negotiate, but Zhang Zian had to make three rules with Richard.
"First, don't squawk after everyone else is asleep. Second, don't squawk before everyone else is up. Third, don't move around in the bedroom." He held up three fingers and said.
"I understand the first two, but what the hell is the last one?" Richard said angrily.
"According to Sun Xiaomeng, you parrots and pigeons always make a lot of dust. Staying in the same room for a long time will affect your health. So, you can't move around in the bedroom," Zhang Zian warned it seriously.
"Quack! You can't find a boyfriend if you care too much about these details, "Richard said disapprovingly.
"I am not looking for a boyfriend!" Zhang Zian said helplessly, "When you annoy Fina, you will regret it. Don't say I didn't warn you."
"Let's not talk about this first. What did I hear that woman shouting downstairs?" Richard asked with great interest.
Zhang Zian had almost forgotten about the episode. He was only thinking about the 3,000 yuan he had earned. He paused for a moment before he remembered, "You mean Zhao Qi? She always likes to make a fuss about nothing and make a fuss when she has nothing to do … Well, yesterday I asked Fina to teach the kittens how to dance, and then I chose a song as the accompaniment. As a result, when Zhao Qi listened to the song today, she was as angry as her cat, saying that it was too vulgar and too low …"
"What song? Play it for me to hear, "Richard asked.
Zhang Zian took out his phone, opened the music player, and began to play Little Apple.
"You are my little, little apple …"
"I can never love you enough …"
After the song finished, Zhang Zian exited the music player and said angrily, "This is the song. It is a song with a lively beat, and it is suitable for kittens to dance. But Zhao Qi said it was too vulgar! People love it, but she doesn't like it. Who does she think she is? "
Richard had been listening to the song with its eyes closed. It opened its eyes and nodded in agreement, "This time, I have to admit that you, idiot, are right."
"What? What's going on? " Zhang Zian originally wanted to cover up his guilty conscience by talking big. He thought that maybe the song was a bit vulgar? He didn't expect that Richard would agree.
Richard cleared his throat, "At least the lyrics of this song are not vulgar. There is a phrase in English: the apple of someone's eye. You idiot probably haven't heard of it, right? Do you know what it means? "
"I don't know," Zhang Zian answered honestly. He thought for a moment and said tentatively, "The apple of someone's eye? Does it mean that someone loves eating apples? "
He felt that it would be embarrassing to just say "I don't know," so he understood it literally.
"Gah gah, I knew you didn't know!" Richard was like an old scholar who liked to teach others. It walked on the table with its chest out and its head up. "Let me tell you, the meaning of this phrase is not that simple. It means: someone's most precious thing, the love of their heart! The word 'apple' here doesn't refer to an apple, but to a person's pupil. This saying can be traced back to Emperor Alfred more than a thousand years ago, and was later confirmed by Emperor James I in the Bible. "
Zhang Zian couldn't help but complain in his heart. What the hell, this is confirmed?
Richard continued, "So, 'You are my little apple, I can never love you enough.' This lyric is not only not vulgar, but it can also be said to be a quote from the classics. The person who can write this lyric must have a certain level of knowledge. At least, he is not an English idiot like you."
Zhang Zian pretended that he didn't hear the sarcasm in the last sentence, and raised an objection, "But it could also be a coincidence, right?" He didn't believe that a lyric could be quoted from the classics.
Richard ignored his objection, "Anyway, if the person named Song Bai intends to translate the lyric into English and show it to foreign countries, this song may be the most suitable one, because people in English-speaking countries can understand why the little apple is the love of their heart, especially those who are addicted to cats. This song will definitely resonate with them."
"I see …" Zhang Zian walked to the window and thought carefully, "Am I really a genius?"
Richard said, "… How did you come to such an absurd conclusion?"
"I'm ashamed that I only did a little bit of work and randomly chose a song, but it actually became a perfect match for the dance scene!" Zhang Zian was secretly happy and said happily.
He was thinking that maybe he could reevaluate the possibility of Song Bai's vlog becoming popular?
Richard coldly interrupted his dream, "The person who wrote the lyric may have made a lucky guess, but you are 100% lucky! But … "
"But what?" Zhang Zian heard the hidden meaning in Richard's words.
Richard glanced at Galaxy, who was playing hide-and-seek with the American Shorthair, "Since ancient times, apples have symbolized good luck and health in the West. Maybe you, idiot, are really lucky."
