Zhang Zian's words were soft but firm, which surprised the girl. She thought that her requirements were very low, and that she could easily buy a pet to accompany her. She didn't expect that she would be rejected.
The boss in front of her, who had money but didn't want to earn it, made her look at him in a new light. Even her gloomy heart seemed to be illuminated by a thin ray of sunshine.
She was not angry or annoyed. She said from another perspective, "Boss, please believe me. I really don't care what kind of pet it is, as long as it's a cat or a dog. After I buy it, I will treat it well and won't give it to anyone else."
Although her tone was sincere, Zhang Zian still didn't let her go easily. He asked, "Customer, you can tell me about your needs and objective conditions, and I will try to help you analyze them. For example, whether the neighbors mind the noise of the pet, whether you rented or bought a house, whether there is enough space at home, how your family or roommates' attitudes towards raising a pet, whether you have enough time to accompany the pet for outdoor exercise, whether pets that are too intimate will interfere with your work and study, financial situation, etc. The more detailed you are, the more accurate I can help you analyze to see if you are suitable for raising a pet, and what kind of pet is suitable for you."
A series of questions overwhelmed her, and she tried to digest them before slowly answering, "The neighbors also raise dogs, so they don't mind … My family bought the house for me. I live alone, and my family is out of town … As for space, it's a medium-sized house. The space should be okay … Outdoor exercise …"
When it came to outdoor exercise, she paused and then smiled bitterly. "I didn't like outdoor exercise before, and I liked to stay at home, but I will try to go out more in the future. Well … financial situation … financial situation is okay. It's not a problem to support myself and a pet. As for whether the pet will interfere with my work and study, please rest assured. I bought a pet to let it accompany me and stick to me all day long … "
From her description, she was actually quite suitable for raising a pet. She wanted the pet to stick to her as much as possible, so a dog was more suitable for her. However, she mentioned that she didn't like outdoor exercise, which was a little contradictory to raising a dog.
Many families, especially young couples or couples, liked dogs and had them. They were usually very intimate with their dogs, but when it was their turn to take their dogs out for a walk, they would always push the responsibility to each other. There were even conflicts and quarrels because of this. After all, everyone had a long day, and everyone knew that lying on the sofa and scrolling through their Moments or playing games was more comfortable.
If there were elderly people in the house, they could push the responsibility of walking the dog to the elderly, but young couples did not like to live with elderly people …
The girl said that she didn't like outdoor activities, but emphasized that she would try to go out more in the future. To be honest, Zhang Zian doubted her statement. It was not so easy to overcome the inertia of an otaku. She was likely to return to her otaku lifestyle after two days of novelty and be too lazy to go out.
If she insisted on raising a pet, Zhang Zian felt that she was more suitable to raise a cat. Raising a cat was a safer choice. Although cats were not as clingy as she hoped, it was better than betting on the option that she would fall in love with outdoor activities after raising a pet. The probability was too slim.
After she finished speaking, she asked hopefully, "Boss, what kind of pet is suitable for me to raise? Cat or dog? "
"A cat," Zhang Zian answered uncertainly.
"Cat? Well, cats are not bad. I like them very much. " She smiled and looked at the kittens playing on the floor in the shop, and then looked up at the adult Abyssinian cats jumping on the shelves. She asked further, "What kind of cat should I raise? Boss, do you have any suggestions? "
She answered so quickly that there seemed to be no objection, which made Zhang Zian even more uncertain. Was there really someone who raised a pet so casually? He felt that something was wrong.
"The price of cats varies widely, ranging from a few thousand to tens of thousands. You can choose according to your financial ability," Zhang Zian said.
"I don't know how to choose. Boss, please choose one for me." She shook her head and kicked the ball back to him. "A few thousand is fine, but a few tens of thousands … I can afford it. After all, I don't buy cats every day."
Wang Qian, who had been eavesdropping on them, coughed, meaning to choose the most expensive one. It was best to add some extra money. He didn't believe that he couldn't deal with these rich kids!
Zhang Zian didn't think that she looked like a rich kid, whether it was her clothes, appearance, or temperament. However, the condition she gave was too broad, and he had to find a way to narrow it further.
"So, do you like long-haired cats or short-haired cats? Long-haired cats may feel better, but they are troublesome to take care of daily, and they shed a lot of hair. Short-haired cats are more suitable for the fast-paced life in modern cities. "
The difference in the length of a kitten's hair was not very clear, so he pointed at Fina and Snowy Lionet as examples, which made Fina stare fiercely.
"Either is fine. I don't mind the trouble," she said.
This time, even Zhang Zian was defeated. He didn't know what to do with her. Did he really have to randomly choose a cat to sell to her?
Wang Qian secretly snickered, thinking to himself, Master, you've always been successful in showing off in front of your customers, but today it's your turn to be humiliated? He didn't know that this girl was so awesome …
"How about this? Have you heard of a slogan — adoption instead of buying?" Zhang Zian had no choice but to use his last resort. He never dreamed that one day he would use this phrase to promote others …
She thought for a moment. "I think I've heard it somewhere."
"If you don't have a special preference for cat breeds, I recommend you adopt one for free … Adoption instead of buying has many benefits. First, it can save money. Second, it can reduce the number of stray cats and dogs. Third, it can promote the development of social welfare. Lastly, no sale, no harm …" Zhang Zian said while counting with his fingers.
He was only saying this because he had no choice. There was a certain self-mockery and ridicule in his words, but he didn't expect her to nod and say, "Sounds good. Where can I adopt?"
"There are many ways to adopt. First, you can pick one up from outside. There are a lot of stray cats out there now. You can pick one up and bring it to a pet clinic for deworming and vaccinations. After a physical examination, you can bring it home. Or you can go to a specialized adoption agency. I personally recommend a place, which is Li's Supreme Snack Bar for Cat Fanciers across the road. We have a cooperative relationship with that shop. You can try …"
Zhang Zian was so long-winded because he wanted to quickly send this hot potato out.
