Before the young man sent the message, the atmosphere in the Dog Market Trading Group was like this:
Liu XX: "Little Monk, how is business today? I saw an idiot take away one of your kebabs. How much did you sell it for? "
Little Monk was terrified. "Mr. Liu, don't make fun of me. I've only lost one after so many days, unlike you. You've already lost at least two Pomeranians this morning, right?"
Three-year-old unnie: "You two are treating me today. I haven't even started my business yet!"
Golden Autumn Merchant: "Third Brother, everyone knows that if you don't start your business for three years, you can eat for three years. Don't pretend to be poor here! The weather is not good today, so I won't set up my stall. I'll watch you make money! "
...
When the young man sent the warning message, the atmosphere in the group changed.
Liu XX: "What the f * ck! Who's here to make trouble? Industry and Commerce or Tax Bureau? Third Bro, did you embezzle the money that we pooled together? "
Three-year-old unnie: "I'm innocent! I handed in all the money we gathered. It's not my fault! "
Red Dragon: "Not Industry and Commerce or Tax Bureau. I think they are in the same industry."
Little Monk was terrified. "Same industry? Which industry is so stupid? I know most of the people who run kennels in Binhai City. No one is so stupid … "
Red Dragon: "I'm not sure yet. I'm not sure. I'm just reminding you."
Golden Autumn Merchant: "Thank you, Brother Dragon. If they really mess up our business, we're not going to let them off easily! "
Red Dragon: "Let me put it this way. We have set up this group to unite all the men in the dog market. We are bound together for good or bad. No one can enjoy the benefits alone. Do you understand?"
Everyone responded, "Understood, Brother Dragon. Don't worry!"
...
Zhang Zian held the Dragon-Li cat that was disguised as an American Shorthair and said to Snowy, "In terms of body shape, American Shorthairs and Dragon-Li cats are very similar, especially some Dragon-Li cats can grow to look like American Shorthairs, like this one. This kitten is really good. It's lively and healthy. It's a good cat, but the premise is that it's sold as a Dragon-Li cat. If it's sold as an American Shorthair, it'll be a fraud, and the price will be zero. "
The stall owner turned anxious. "Nonsense! Put my cat down! "
Snowy pointed the camera at the stall owner and filmed his embarrassing behavior.
"Hey! Stop taking pictures! Who told you to take a picture! "The stall owner hurriedly covered his face.
Zhang Zian put down the kitten and pulled Snowy. "Let's go."
He felt that there was no need to fight with these vendors, because there were too many such profiteers in the dog market. They were everywhere, and he couldn't control them all. It was more important to educate the tens of thousands of viewers in the live broadcast room, and let them know some common scams, and not to be greedy when buying pets.
Snowy looked at the kitten reluctantly. She caught up with Zhang Zian and asked, "How do you differentiate between an American Shorthair and a Dragon-Li? Mr. Store Manager, how did you recognize it? "
In addition to cursing the unscrupulous stall owner, the viewers in the live streaming channel also wanted to know the answer to this question.
While walking, Zhang Zian explained, "It's not very reliable to distinguish according to the lines on the Internet. Some Dragon-Li with American Shorthair lineage have almost the same lines as the authentic American Shorthair. Therefore, you can't just look at the color of the fur and the face, but also the body shape and bones. For example, the tail of a Dragon-Li gradually tapers from the root to the tip of the tail, and the amplitude is very uniform, while the tail of an American Shorthair is steeper. Another difference is the head shape. An American Shorthair's head shape is oval, more rounded, and the proportion of the head to the body length is larger, just like our standard six-headed body, while a Dragon-Li's head shape is hexagonal with edges and corners, and the head is smaller, just like a supermodel's nine-headed body. "
Snowy didn't really understand, and was a little confused.
Zhang Zian comforted her, "In fact, these things, you will naturally understand when you see more of them. You can't tell them apart because you have seen too few cats. After reading a book a hundred times, the meaning will become clear, and the same is true for pets. If you're in the pet business and you only see cats and dogs all day long, you'll soon have the same eyesight as me, and you have no choice but to practice. Otherwise, you'll be cheated and lose everything. "
Snowy nodded, thinking that what he said was very reasonable.
She thought of another question and asked, "Mr. Store Manager, the kitten bit my hand just now. Is it because it left its mother too early and did not have enough social education?"
"Yes," Zhang Zian said approvingly. "Indeed. When kittens are born, normal mother cats will teach them how to get along with humans, including not biting people. If kittens bite people, it is either because they left the mother cat too early, or the mother cat has no time to teach them for some reason. For example, the frequency of breeding is too high, and the mother cat is used as a breeding machine, giving birth to one baby after another. Such a mother cat's body and spirit have long been broken. "
"How pitiful …" Snowy turned back to look at the vendor who was gradually getting further away. She realized that the two girls were also following behind, whispering to each other in low voices.
An audience member raised a question, "Excuse me, Mr. Hottie Store Manager. My kitten always bites people. Not only me, but also my customers. Can this be corrected?"
Snowy conveyed this question to Zhang Zian.
He immediately replied, "It can be corrected. If it bites you, you bite it."
Snowy and the audience were stunned, thinking that he was joking.
Zhang Zian laughed and said, "It's not a joke. Do you know how mother cats educate kittens? When kittens are drinking milk or playing and bite the mother cat, the mother cat will bite the kittens to let them know that being bitten is very painful. After repeating this a few times, the kittens will not bite people anymore. This is social education, a tooth for a tooth. If you feel that you can't bite them, you can also scream when they bite to scare them, so that they will form a conditioned reflex. This is also okay. "
Snowy patted her head and suddenly realized, "Snowy has learned something new!"
The audience, as usual, sent a barrage of comments, "Follow Snowy to learn something new!"
Someone sent a long string of comments and lamented, "My kitten was brought over from a neighbor's house when it was born. It used to bite people, but I scolded and beat it. Finally, it corrected itself. Who knew that now it doesn't bite people, but it is very scared of me. When I call it, it hides far away … If only I knew there was another way."
Many netizens criticized him, saying that he shouldn't have hit the kitten, but should have taught it patiently.
Zhang Zian shook his head and said, "In fact, you don't have to hit a kitten when it bites, but it is not because you hit it."
The audience member did not understand, so he sent another barrage of comments to ask for advice.
Zhang Zian first asked, "Did you call its name when you hit it and scolded it? For example … Snowy, why are you so disobedient? Pah! Who told you to bite people! Pah! Is that it? "
Little Snow giggled.
"Yes, yes! That's it! How did you guess it, Store Manager? "the audience member asked.
Zhang Zian said confidently, "Whether it is raising a dog or a cat, when a pet makes a mistake, especially a serious mistake like biting people, it must be punished. However, the punishment method is skillful. You have to catch them when they make a mistake and punish them on the spot. You can't punish them a few hours after the mistake. Otherwise, they will be confused."
He paused, thought of another point, and added, "In addition, a very common mistake for new pet owners is to call their pet's name and scold them at the same time. This is absolutely not okay, because they will associate their name with the mistake. Every time they hear their owner call their name, they will think that they have made a mistake again and will be beaten and scolded again. Of course, they will avoid it. The correct way is to call their name when rewarding them and when feeding them, and not to call their name when punishing them. "
Not only Snowy and the audience in the live broadcast room, but even the two girls who followed behind her were listening and nodding their heads. Many people had made similar mistakes without knowing it. Only now did they understand why their pets would alienate them.
There was no love without reason, and there was no hatred without reason.
None of the cats and dogs in Zhang Zian's shop bite people, so he didn't have a chance to explain this to the audience in the live broadcast room before. Taking this opportunity to visit the dog market, he wanted to show the audience the difference between cats and dogs with good social education and dogs with poor social education.
Snowy felt that this trip was very rewarding, not just for fun, but for learning something that she had never thought about before. She became more and more energetic.
Deng Jie listened to Zhang Zian's explanation absent-mindedly, and her eyes were looking for the Shiba Inu vendor who cheated her last time. At this time, she quietly pulled Zhang Zian's sleeve and hinted with her eyes, "Boss, the stall over there sells Pomeranians. I almost bought one from him last time. Can you help me check if the Pomeranians he sells are real? I regretted it when I went back last time. I thought that if I had bought a Pomeranian instead of a Shiba Inu, I wouldn't have been cheated. "
Zhang Zian didn't think it was possible, because as far as he knew, it was much harder to find a decent vendor than a profiteer in this dog market.
"Okay, no problem. Let's go and see if this Pomeranian is real or fake. "
He called Snowy, and the three of them turned around and went straight to the stall selling Pomeranians.
