Dream Pet Shop

Chapter 21 In Business

After Xia Ji sent out the [-] lucky charms, he soon received feedback from fans one after another. Many people posted on Weibo. After Xia Ji forwarded it, more and more people couldn't hold back. There was a wave of publicity.

Xia Ji quickly registered the Taobao store. The background of the store was made in an avant-garde interstellar style, but the pictures of the products on the shelves were all in a soft and cute style. Thanks to my friend, Xie Yan helped him adjust the color, and the final visual effect is quite good.

Xia Ji posted the pre-sale link of the lucky charms on Weibo. The lucky charms produced this time are quite exquisite. Although the cost has increased, the cost price is not high because of the large production volume, 8 yuan each.Xia Ji set the retail price for the lucky charms at 25 yuan each. He didn't dare to set it too high, and wanted to accumulate word of mouth first.

Calculated in this way, if all the 30 lucky charms are sold, and the design fees and packaging fees for Xie Yan are removed, Xia Ji can earn about [-] net. Yes, as for the loan, you can pay it back slowly.

In fact, Xia Ji can't wait to expand the pet store, and has long been optimistic about the appearance.

Since it is an expansion, after buying it, it must be merged with the current pet shop. There are only two options, either the one adjacent to the left or the one adjacent to the right... The right happens to be the house that Long Wei rents.

Xia Ji's small plan was pounding in his heart, as long as he could persuade the owner to buy the store, then he would become Long Wei's landlord, and the relationship between them would have an additional layer.He can open up the two shops, make the rooms on the second floor next to each other, and let Long Wei live in the room next to him for free, so that he can see Long Wei almost 24 hours a day.

"Hey hey..." Xia Xiaoji was caught in the infinite brain, and laughed out loud.

Just when he was reluctant to think about leaving, he suddenly heard Long Wei's voice: "Be careful."

Xia Ji looked up, and at some point a guest came to the door, sitting in a wheelchair, pushing the glass door with difficulty.Long Wei hurried over to open the door and helped push the person in.There was a middle-aged man in the wheelchair. He looked like he was in his early 40s. His face was pale, as if he had just recovered from a serious illness. He smiled and said thank you to Long Wei.

Seeing that the guest had difficulty moving, Xia Ji hurriedly greeted him and asked, "Hi, how can I help you?"

The man took out his mobile phone from his pocket, held it up, showed Xia Ji and Long Wei the ornaments on the mobile phone, and said, "Excuse me, is this health charm from your shop?"

Xia Ji saw that it was the lucky charm he sent two days ago, so he nodded and asked, "Have you followed our Weibo?"

The man smiled and shook his head: "My son gave it to me. I didn't know your store's Weibo at first. I happened to see someone posting a lucky charm similar to mine, so I found your Weibo. Bo, and found the address of this pet shop from Weibo."

"So that's the case." Xia Ji nodded knowingly, thinking that it was not easy to find this man.

The man continued: "Actually, I saw your adoption information on Weibo. I want to adopt a pet, is that okay?"

Xia Ji was very surprised, he was taken aback for a moment, and then quickly said: "Of course, you are very welcome, you can come here to see the pets."

Long Wei pushed the man to the side of the pets' nests, and the pets had just eaten and drank their fill, and they all slept in the nests.

The man's calm eyes swept over every small figure that was crawling, and he didn't speak all the time. Xia Ji stood beside him holding his breath, feeling a little nervous for no reason, not knowing which pet he would choose, and worried that he would not choose any of them.

After a long silence, the man suddenly said: "Actually... I want to adopt a pet to ease the relationship between me and my son." He lowered his eyes, and a helpless smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "Since I got injured in a car accident , sitting in a wheelchair, it feels like a big blow to him... I don’t know how to face him.”

He raised his head to look at Xia Ji, and asked with a help-like look: "Boss, what kind of pet is more suitable to ease the atmosphere between us?"

Xia Ji had absolutely no experience in this area, and was not good at dealing with such situations. Facing the man's eyes asking for help, he looked powerless.

Standing behind the wheelchair, Long Wei suddenly said: "Pets are not omnipotent. The matter between you and your son still needs to be resolved by you. Adopting a pet is to be responsible for a life. I hope you can think about it clearly."

"Ah, I'm sorry, I said some unnecessary words." The man smiled awkwardly, "After a serious illness, people become fragile. You are right, you have to be responsible for adopting a pet, and I promise to do it arrive."

Xia Ji said: "Have you decided which pet to adopt? You need to register your personal information."

The man thought for a while, pointed to the cage in the corner, and said, "I want to raise that tortoise."

Xia Ji was a little surprised. He originally thought that men would choose warmer and fluffier pets, but he didn't expect him to choose that tortoise.

After the man finished filling out the information form, Xia Ji found a large glass tank, sprinkled some feed into it, and then put the tortoise in. Long Wei packed the pet supplies and handed them to the man as usual.

The man put the glass tank on his knees, and Xia Ji originally planned to help him stop a car, but he refused: "My house is nearby. My son is about to leave school, I will wait for him here, and we will go back together later .”

At five o'clock in the afternoon, it was the end of school time for the primary school attached to H University.The elementary school students came out of the school gate in small groups, talking and laughing.At a quarter past five, Lin Ran came out of school slowly with her schoolbag on her back and her head down.

He deliberately came out later, not wanting to go with his classmates, especially Zhou Xiaomao, who was at the same table, had been asking him if his father was recovering from his illness for the past two days, which annoyed him very much.

Lin Ran looked down at the ground all the way, and kicked every small stone on the road. He was not in a hurry because his home was close to the school.

"Lin Ran." Hearing someone calling his name suddenly, Lin Ran raised his head in surprise, and saw his father sitting in a wheelchair, waiting in front of a store.He hurried over, frowning like a little adult and said: "Dad, why didn't you rest at home and ran out?"

Father Lin smiled, patted the glass tank in his arms, and said, "I adopted a pet for you, take a look."

It was only then that Lin Ran discovered that his father was behind a pet shop. He was not in the mood to keep any pets at all. He couldn't understand what his father was thinking. His mother was busy with work and housework every day. What time to add another pet!

The key is what kind of pet is this? !

Lin Ran saw clearly what was in the glass jar, it was a palm-sized tortoise with ugly scratches on its shell, it was not cute at all.He learned in science class that turtles are cold-blooded, nothing like those warm kittens and puppies, and he doesn't like it at all!I don't want to raise it at all!

"Dad, I don't like this turtle, you should return it." Lin Ran said impatiently.

There was a moment of embarrassment on Father Lin's face. He thought his son would be happy, but he didn't expect his son to be so resistant. He could only say, "If you have already adopted it, you will be responsible. If you return it at this time, the tortoise will be sad, right?"

Lin Ran was not happy: "It's an animal, how can it be sad or not?"

"Hey, forget it, you don't want to raise me." Father Lin sighed, "Go back."

Seeing his father's dejected look, Lin Ran felt an unspeakable feeling in his heart, as if complaints, anger and self-blame were all mixed together, making him uncomfortable!Lin Ran pushed his father home without saying a word, and the father and son had nothing to say along the way.

After arriving home, Lin's father temporarily put the glass jar on the dining table, Lin Ran helped him to the bed, and then went back to his room to do homework.

At dinner time, Mother Lin came back with vegetables, put down her things, and saw the tortoise in the glass tank at a glance, and hurriedly yelled into the room: "Where did the tortoise come from?"

Lin Ran heard it in the room and ignored it. After a while, his father's voice sounded from the next door: "I brought it back from the pet shop today."

"Why do I suddenly want to keep pets? Fortunately, I asked, otherwise I would make soup for you, hehehe." Mother Lin was joking with Father Lin next door.

Lin Ran finished her homework in a fit of irritability, got up and went to the kitchen to pour water.Suddenly, I found that the little turtle crawled out of the glass tank at some point, and was slowly nibbling the fresh vegetable leaves his mother bought.

Lin Ran frowned: "As soon as we come back, we will grab food from us." He tore off the vegetable leaves that the little turtle was biting into his mouth, and deliberately carried those bags of fresh vegetables to a far away place and put them away. .

When he opened the bag, he moved too much, and for some reason, he overturned the little turtle.

The little tortoise was lying sprawled on the dining table, its four legs dangling in the air, struggling desperately, but it just couldn't turn over.

Lin Ran watched indifferently from the side, thinking why a tortoise is so stupid, if it "overturns" in front of the natural enemy, wouldn't it be cold in minutes?

The little turtle was still shaking pitifully. Lin Ran looked at it for a while and felt bored, so he stretched out his hand and turned it over.

Lin Ran picked up the water glass and prepared to go back to the room, but unexpectedly, the little turtle chased him a few steps, much faster than he imagined.Lin Ran suddenly became interested and wanted to see how fast the tortoise could crawl.

He put his hand on the table, and sure enough, the little turtle crawled over and sniffed his hand with his small head.Lin Ran moved his hand away again, and the little tortoise immediately ran after it, its limbs and short legs were unexpectedly agile.

So Lin Ran repeated this action, constantly increasing the speed of his hand back, and the little turtle chased after him... and "overturned" again.

"Pfft hahaha——" Lin Ran couldn't help being amused by the little turtle's antics.

The author has something to say: The little turtle rolls over every day: stew, stew... QAQ
