Wu Mingzhen's "The Classic of Cats Appreciation" attracted a lot of people's attention, and even greatly increased the customers' enthusiasm. Soon, two customers decided to buy the kittens. The girl with glasses was embarrassed, and her face was burning. She felt that she had become a negative example. She already knew that her old ideas were wrong, and that she shouldn't have chosen kittens under three months old. She regretted not accepting Zhang Zian's explanation.
Her boyfriend saw that many people were looking at her with ridicule and ridicule, so he quickly tried to change the topic and asked, "You just said, 'Cats don't have enough time to grow up. If they leave their mothers too soon, they will get sick; if they don't have enough time to grow up, they will have enough time to grow up.' We understand the first half of the sentence. Kittens shouldn't leave their mothers too early, or they won't have enough time to grow up. What does the second half of the sentence mean?"
"Yeah, tell us the meaning of the second half of the sentence!" The customers all agreed one after another.
Wu Mingzhen only explained the first half of the sentence, but ignored the second half, which made many people with OCD feel like there was a fishbone stuck in their throat.
Without waiting for an answer, another girl with short hair interrupted, "Mr. Store Manager, I am a loyal viewer of Snowy's live broadcast room, and I have watched several episodes of your show. For the sake of Snowy, can you tell me that I have a kitten at home that is not even a month old yet? According to The Classic of Cats Appreciation, does it mean that it is not born well and will be sick when it grows up? "Zhang Zian thought. Is there any way to make it healthy? "
She looked anxious, obviously worried about her kitten.
Wu Mingzhen looked at Zhang Zian, smiled, and didn't answer.
Zhang Zian knew that Wu Mingzhen wanted to test him, but he didn't know what the so-called "Viper with Horsehair" was. When he was about to use the excuse of poop to escape, and then take the opportunity to Baidu or ask Sun Xiaomeng for help, he heard Old Time Tea say loudly, "Zian, don't worry. Just repeat what I said to them."
Zhang Zian immediately understood what was going on. He pretended to be at ease and repeated Old Time Tea's words word by word, "Old Time Tea,
"The ancients believed that cats frequently had eye droppings because of congenital deficiencies, so they had to eat 'Viper with Horsehair' to make up for it. After eating it, cats will live longer. Although the Horsehair Snake had the word 'snake' in its name, it was not actually a snake. Instead, it was a generic term for the color-changing tree lizard that lived in the southern region. Traditional Chinese Medicine believes that Horsehair Snake has the effect of dispelling wind, promoting blood circulation, nourishing and strengthening the body, so it can be used in medicine. Since eating Capelin can make cats stronger, the ancients even gave this lizard the nickname 'cat ginseng', meaning that for cats, this lizard is as nourishing as ginseng. "
Zhang Zian trusted Old Time Tea 200%. Since Old Time Tea said it, it must be right.
After he finished speaking, he stood proudly and calmly accepted the admiring gazes of the crowd. Of course, there was also Fina's disdain in the gazes, but it was better to ignore that for now …
Not only were the others fascinated, but even Wu Mingzhen was in awe. He knew about the Malayan Vipera, but he didn't know that the Malayan Vipera also had the reputation of "cat ginseng". He couldn't help but think more highly of Zhang Zian... He thought to himself, "This young man named Zhang Zian is really mysterious. Did he deliberately pretend to know nothing about The Classic of Cats to test me?"
Zhang Zian answered the questions of two people at the same time with a paragraph, but it brought more questions.
"Mr. Store Manager, where can I get Horsehair Snakes? Are they expensive? " The short-haired girl said eagerly, "My little kitten may have left its mother too early, so it doesn't feel very lively and listless all day long. I want to buy some Horsehair Snakes to nourish it …"
"Don't worry, the kitten is too small. Even if you give it Horsehair Snakes, it won't be able to eat them. As for where to get Horsehair Snakes, you can ask some local lizard farmers, or go online to find air-dried Horsehair Snakes, "Zhang Zian said.
"By the way, Mr. Store Manager, isn't this a pet shop? Why don't you sell some reptiles? I think it's good to start with Horsehair Snakes …" someone suggested.
Zhang Zian laughed and scolded, "Even if I sell reptiles, I'm not selling them as snacks for cats!"
"Is it really effective to eat Horsehair Snakes?" someone else asked.
"Well …" Zhang Zian asked back, "Is it effective to eat ginseng?"
"I think it is. Otherwise, why would it be so expensive?" the person said.
"Since the Horsehair Snake has the reputation of 'Cat Ginseng', it should be effective. Of course, as a dietary therapy, the effect will not be so quick, and it is not necessary to eat the Horsehair Snake. A balanced nutrition, appropriate combination of some raw meat, and regular health checks are enough for cats. As for your little kitten, you can take it to the pet hospital for a checkup. It's much better than blindly eating supplements, "Zhang Zian suggested to the short-haired girl.
The short-haired girl nodded hurriedly, "I got it. Today, I'm here with my friend to choose a cat. I'll take it for a checkup when I get back. "
The customers who came today all felt that they had made a lot of money. Whether it was Zhang Zian or Wu Mingzhen, they were all novel things that they had never heard before.
The boyfriend of the girl with glasses pulled her and persuaded her in a low voice, "It doesn't seem bad to raise a cat from three or four months old … I think we should buy it here, don't go to other places …"
She had wanted to do this for a long time. In order not to lose face, under her boyfriend's persuasion, she pretended to agree reluctantly.
Wu Mingzhen walked to Zhang Zian and asked curiously, "Store Manager Zhang, since you know The Classic of Cats Appreciation, why didn't you say it before?"
Zhang Zian winked at him, and the two of them went to a slightly quiet corner of the shop. Zhang Zian said, "President Wu, cats born between February 2nd and July 14th of the lunar calendar are better at protecting their owners. You can say that, but I can't. Otherwise, how can I sell my cats in the future?"
Wu Mingzhen smiled and thought that it was true. Pet shops had to sell cats all year round, and they couldn't just stop for half a year. He liked pets, but he didn't sell pets, so he didn't think too much about it.
In fact, Zhang Zian didn't really believe in this saying, but some people did.
In ancient times, everything in China was divided into "Yin" and "Yang," and paid attention to the balance of Yin and Yang. In the eyes of the ancients, cats were a kind of Yin animal. Cats born between February 2nd and July 14th had more Yang energy, which could balance their own Yin energy. If cats born after the Ghost Festival, they would have more Yin energy on top of Yin, which was not very auspicious.
For customers, even if they didn't believe it, they might deliberately choose cats that were born in this area for good luck and good luck.
Wang Qian and Li Kun didn't care about that. They urged the customers, "Don't hesitate. Buy it now. If you miss it, you will have to wait for half a year!"
