"Meow... Xinghai... Meow... Xinghai..."
Lucky Cat is chasing the tip of its tail in circles, it seems to be very happy.
Although fortunately it seems to have accepted the name "Xinghai", but Zhang Zian glanced at the phone secretly. Its origin and real name are still "unlocked". Dreams were dashed...
At least, it wasn't so afraid of him anymore.
He really wanted to complain about this game, why the favorability should start from a negative value...
The sun went down quickly, the solar street lights on the street turned on automatically, the smell of food wafted from every house, and Zhang Zian's stomach also sang "Empty City Plan" very cooperatively.
He cleared his throat, "Cough! Do you want to eat something? Or can I get you a comfortable cat bed to rest?"
The Navigator says it doesn't need to eat, but what if it does? Feeding is a shortcut to gain favorability!
Most of the houses in Binhai City do not have heating, and it is relatively cold in winter, so the shops sell semi-enclosed thermal cat litters.
"Meow... don't eat... meow... Xinghai hates the nest... it's dark and small..." It immediately expressed a strong rejection.
"Okay! Don't nest, let's not nest!" Zhang Zian broke out in a cold sweat, this was the first time he clearly expressed his dislike for something... Does the cat nest have a grudge against it
He gritted his teeth, "Then, why don't you sleep in my bed, and I'll sleep somewhere else."
"Meow... It's good for Xinghai to stay here..."
It seems to like the slightly empty shop on the first floor, leaving a little bit away from the small-leaf red sandalwood it regards as its base, and expanding the activity radius from 15 cm to 50 cm...
"Well, no problem, you can stay anywhere you want in this room. By the way, my name is Zhang Zian, hello, Xinghai!"
"Meow... you... hello..." It buried its face in shyness.
"I'm going upstairs to cook, then take a shower and wash my clothes. Is it okay for you to stay here by yourself?"
It nodded slightly.
Zhang Zian stepped lightly, went upstairs like a thief, walked into his bedroom, closed the door, and then collapsed on the bed, tired as if he had fallen apart.
Treating this lucky cat is like holding a piece of priceless porcelain. You have to work hard, you can't say a word wrong, and you can't frighten it with actions. It's really tiring.
At the same time, Zhang Zian was almost 100% sure that it must have suffered severe psychological trauma before, and this trauma was 100% from humans.
Now he doesn't care much about why it is called Lucky Cat and how mysterious its origin is, he just wants it to play and play happily like an ordinary cat... If increasing the favorability can do this, then he will improve Sensitivity! Elevate at all costs!
Just like other men of this age, Zhang Zian also has a headache about cooking. The staple food he is best at is instant noodles, his best dish is scrambled eggs, and his best knife is cutting ham sausage... So he often asks He went to a small restaurant to solve the problem of food and clothing, but it was always unbearable for him to stay alone in the store with the lucky cat, so he finally decided to add instant noodles and sausages.
The Lucky Cat was so quiet on the first floor that several times he thought it had slipped away, or disappeared, like a dream, like a phantom. He quietly went down the stairs, and saw it squatting behind the floor-to-ceiling glass door at the store entrance, looking up at the night sky through the glass, with the sea of stars reflected in its pupils like a sea of stars.
The bright moonlight sprinkled on it, leaving black and white shadows on the ground. It is motionless, extremely illusory, as if it will melt into the moonlight in the next second, but it is extremely real, as if it represents eternity.
Fragile and powerful, the indescribable sense of existence is heartbreaking.
It seemed sacrilege to disturb the silence.
It was cold at night.
Zhang Zian gently placed a cotton pad on the floor tiles, with a little force, he slid towards it, and then tiptoed upstairs as he came.
Awakened by urine in the middle of the night, he went to the toilet to solve it, and thought of it in a daze, and suddenly he woke up a lot. He walked down lightly and saw it curled up on the cotton pad, bathed in moonlight and starlight, sleeping soundly.
He didn't sleep again in the middle of the night, turned on the computer, browsed shopping websites, and searched for manufacturers who could order cribs according to requirements...
…
The next day, he still walked downstairs with his panda eyes on his face.
It's only gray, but he's making today the official opening day, so prepare ahead.
"Good morning, Xinghai!"
Lucky Cat has woken up, but is still lying on the cotton pad, watching curiously through the floor-to-ceiling glass doors at the pedestrians coming and going on the street in the early morning. Some people are getting ready to go to work, some just got off work, and some old people are practicing exercises in silk and satin Clothes carrying long swords, they went to the park to exercise in groups of three and four. To be honest, these old people are more energetic than young people because of their adequate rest...
Zhang Zian didn't pull down the shutter door last night, but locked the floor-to-ceiling glass door from the inside. Anyway, there is nothing to steal in the store—I have never seen a burglar who specializes in stealing pets.
Through the glass door, Lucky Cat probably feels very safe. Only when people pass by the store, it will crawl on the ground, as if to say: You can’t see me, you can’t see me!
Hearing Zhang Zian's greeting, it flicked its tail, "Meow, good morning... good morning..."
"Okay! It's time to start working!" Zhang Zian said confidently, rolling up his sleeves.
Lucky Cat's attention was diverted from the pedestrians outside to him.
Yesterday, in order to prevent the newly arrived pets from being frightened, I put them directly into the display cabinet after returning without any treatment. From today onwards, they will face customers directly, so at least wipe their bodies clean and groom their hair , Eliminate the mixed odor of various animals in the farm.
Every pet store has a sink for bathing pets, usually in a small cubicle, completely open is not good, can not guarantee the temperature during bathing, especially in winter, and the hair dryer or water blower Noise can also be annoying for guests.
Zhang Zian has no experience in bathing pets, so he chose two kittens and a puppy. Compared to a ten-pound adult cat and a twenty-pound adult dog, a kitten and a pup are much easier to take care of. And their current hair is relatively short, which is easy to comb.
Adult long-haired cats and dogs are very troublesome to wash, and the hair can't be dried at all within an hour or two. When my parents used to run the store, my mother would bathe the pets in the morning, and my father would clean and organize the store. You can only wash one at most before opening every morning, but anyway, pets don’t need to be bathed every day.
If the pet's thick hair is not blown dry, the consequences will be very serious. Fungus, eczema, and mites will all breed at the bottom of the warm and humid coat. Pets don't tell people it's itchy, they just rub and rub...
Zhang Zian didn't rashly take on the epic task of bathing cats, but just combed the knotted areas of their hair with a comb dipped in clean water, cleaned their tear ducts and ears with cotton balls, and wiped their faces clean with wet paper towels , Blow it a little and put it in the sun to dry.
He called a nearby flower shop and asked them to send two flower baskets.
