Chapter 264: Touching the Dog
The pet shop Jiang Qi found online is in the peripheral business district of a community 4 kilometers away from his home. The community here was newly built in the past few years. Several communities are surrounded by each other. The housing prices are similar, with the average price around 5,000-
7,000, which is considered a mid-to-high-end housing price in Xuncheng.
In Jiang Qi's impression, the price of a house in an old school district in Xuncheng was just over 10,000, so he was shocked when he saw the high-end residential complex in Old John's collection with an average price of 20,000 after Old John became a star.
To a certain extent, this is also Old John's skill. Jiang Qi has lived in Xuncheng for so many years without knowing that there is a high-end residential area of 20,000 per square meter in Xuncheng. Old John has only figured it out after coming here for a few months. Even other
Yueming Bay in the city has been explored clearly.
It can only be said that there are specialties in the art industry.
Because Jiang Qi told the person at the pet shop on the phone that he would arrive after 8 o'clock, it was impossible to walk there. Jiang Qi checked the bus route and found that there was no direct bus. Even if he took the bus, he would have to get off the bus and walk 1.3
kilometer.
Considering his current financial situation, Jiang Qi looked at his bank card balance and decided to scan for a shared electric vehicle.
He is really a low-carbon and environmentally friendly person!
Riding a green shared electric scooter, Jiang Qi followed the navigation and found the pet shop he had spotted online.
Sugar baby favorite.
Just by looking at the name, you can tell that the items inside are not cheap.
After returning the car at the return point, Jiang Qi found a deserted green belt, squatted down, opened the card pack, found [Special Card: Three Sleigh Brothers], and clicked to summon.
The next second, the game prompt sounded in his mind.
"Ding, congratulations to the player for successfully summoning Lala, Xue Xue, and Lian Lian. Please stay where you are and don't move. The three dogs will find you within thirty seconds."
This is a rare thing. Originally, Jiang Qi went to find the summoned card characters. This time, three card sled dogs were summoned, and it was actually the dogs looking for him.
Before waiting for 30 seconds, Jiang Qi was excitedly knocked down by three big fluffy dogs that rushed towards him.
Three giant dogs to be precise.
When Jiang Qi was knocked down by the dog, everyone was stunned. He felt his eyes go dark and he was crushed by a big plush blanket. The plush blanket was so heavy that it almost crushed him to death.
.
Realizing that she had made a big mistake with just one pounce, Lala, who almost gave her a meal ticket to the hospital, got off Jiang Qi with a guilty look on her face, moved to the side, and licked his face flatteringly, making Jiang Qi's face look confused.
saliva.
Jiang Qi:……
Jiang Qi looked at the Alaska in front of him and felt that the card details stated that each dog should eat at least three kilograms of fresh beef every day was a bit conservative.
Jiang Qi rarely sees other people walking big dogs in real life, probably because he rarely wanders around in the streets in the middle of the night. People who walk big dogs these days usually do so secretly in the middle of the night.
The things Jiang Qi sees most on weekdays are Samoyeds and golden retrievers. There is a family downstairs that raises Samoyeds and keeps the dogs in the storage room on the first floor. The big white dog has a smiling face and fluffy fur.
And soft.
Jiang Qi previously thought that the Samoyed downstairs was already big enough. Compared with the corgis, chihuahuas, pugs and other dogs in the same neighborhood, the Samoyed was simply a giant.
Until he saw clearly the three Alaskans in front of him.
We are all sledding idiots, how come the Samoyed downstairs is so much smaller than Lala, Xue Xue and Sledge!
Jiang Qi heard it mentioned by the owner of the Samoyed downstairs before.
Raising a dog is no better than raising a cat. Even if you have a long-haired cat like a Maine Coon, bathing once a month in summer is the limit. Most cats are bathed twice a year, and cats generally don’t stink.
But dogs are different. If a dog is not washed for a long time, it will have a very obvious animal odor. Jiang Qi remembers that last summer, he often saw the family downstairs bathing the dog with a pipe and a faucet at the door of the storage room.
Wash once a week, it takes two strong men to wash a dog.
Jiang Qi looked at the three big dogs in front of him and felt that with their size, they would have to be bathed by at least four big men.
Jiang Qi got up from the ground, patted the grass and soil on his body, picked up three traction ropes that were of good quality from the vertical ground, and looked at the three oversized Alaskans that were wagging their tails crazily.
The hair is fluffy, cute, strong but not fat, and you can tell at a glance that he is well-raised.
Each dog is led by a leash with a tag on it with their name written on it.
Jiang Qi looked at the one that knocked him down and read the name on the tag: "Lala?"
"Woof woof woof!" Lala responded frantically when called by her new owner.
Very good, the dog can understand him, but he can't understand the dog.
Jiang Qi understands what the brackets after the card details mean.
If he has any communication problems with these three sled dogs in the future, it must be his problem and not the dogs' problem.
"Let's go to the pet store to pick out your pet supplies. Take what you like." Jiang Qi took the three dogs and walked towards the pet store with great pride.
"Woof woof woof!"
He was answered with three neat barks.
In Sweetie Baby Pampering, the clerk Xiao Liao, who had delayed getting off work, looked at his phone anxiously.
Pet shops generally close early, especially early at 6 or 7 o'clock. Sweetheart Pet Shop closes a little later, usually at 8 o'clock. Most of the pet shops in Xuncheng make money by washing cats and dogs. They really rely on selling pets and selling pets.
There are very few profitable pet supplies stores.
Nowadays, people like to buy pet products online. When buying cats and dogs, they also look for cat kennels and kennels online. They are not willing to buy them in pet stores. Xiao Liao did not take the call he received more than half an hour ago seriously at all.
.
Most of the time I buy a small bag of dog food for emergencies.
Selling a small bag of dog food didn't get much commission at all. Thinking that he had already postponed get off work for half an hour, Xiao Liao couldn't help but feel a little upset.
"Manager Ouyang, the customer who called today probably won't come. It's been more than half an hour. How about we clean up and close the store." Xiao Liao said, "Or you can call him and ask.
Let’s see if he comes yet.”
As soon as Xiao Liao finished speaking, Jiang Qi came in with three dogs.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Perhaps because of her large size, Lala had just put her head half-way into the store, and the silver layer that was originally lying on the cash register jumped out of fright, and got in
The cat climbing frame in the exhibition cabinet was huddled inside, motionless.
"Wow, Alaska is so big!" Xiao Liao blurted out.
"Ah? Is it big?" Jiang Qi, the novice breeder, was a little confused. He turned to the two dogs outside the store and said, "Xuexue, Pry, come in together."
Xiao Liao was so shocked that his jaw almost dislocated.
Jiang Qi began to look around the pet store.
It is very large, with two floors. The second floor is only half of the first floor. It is a high-ceiling building.
The first floor is the product sales area. Rows of cat and dog food, freeze-dried, canned, snacks, nutritional products, and various toys are neatly arranged, just like a corner of a large supermarket.
The small pet stores Jiang Qi had visited before were very small and crowded, and the smell of animals in the store was also very strong. When he walked in from the outside, his first reaction was to hold his breath.
But this store is not like that. The windows are bright and clean, the air is fresh, there are no pets in the store, and there is only a silver gradient bird that just hid in the transparent display cabinet next to the window. There is even a rest area on the first floor with a sofa and coffee table.
You can go up and sit in the shop and drink tea.
Jiang Qi looked toward the second floor. From a distance, it looked a bit like a children's playground.
"Hello, are you Mr. Jiang who just called me?" Ouyang, the store manager, smiled and greeted the three Alaskans secretly. "I am the manager of this pet store. My surname is Ouyang. Are you
This is your first time coming to our store, do you want me to introduce it to you?"
Jiang Qi nodded.
"We have black tea, green tea, lemon tea, cold water and hot water here. What would you like to drink?"
"Lemon tea."
"Okay, Xiao Liao, go and pour a cup of lemon tea for Mr. Jiang." Store manager Ouyang turned to Xiao Liao and said to Xiao Liao, who quickly went to the tea room at the back.
Lala was a little dissatisfied when she saw that the humans here didn't care at all, so she yelled twice.
"Woof woof!"
Although he had only been in contact with Lala for two minutes, Jiang Qi could already tell that Lala was the most lively of the three dogs, otherwise he would not have been the first to knock him down.
"Lala, keep your voice down, it's not polite." Jiang Qi said.
"Woof woof." Lala could only bark twice in a low voice.
Halfway through, Xiao Liao was dumbfounded and began to wonder whether the dog in front of him was an Alaskan or an Alaskan border collie that looked very much like it.
Store manager Ouyang saw what Lala wanted: "Lala must be hungry, Xiao Liao, please bring Lala a sample pack of freeze-dried food."
"Woof woof!"
"Woof woof!"
Hearing that there was such a good thing, Xuexue and Lianli were also excited and began to call in a low voice. They even walked to the store manager Ouyang and nuzzled around like cats in an attempt to eat and drink.
Xiao Liao:……
I'm afraid these three dogs may have become spirits.
Store manager Ouyang smiled and said, "Bring me three bags."
"Good store manager."
"Your three giant Alaskans are so well raised. I have never seen such a strong, beautiful, obedient, and smart giant Alaskan. Many other people's border collie are not as obedient as the three Alaskans you raised.
"Store manager Ouyang praised and began to introduce the store to Jiang Qi.
The business of this pet store is quite extensive.
The place on the second floor that Jiang Qi thought was a children's paradise is actually a pet paradise, used for fostering pets. The foster care area is monitored 24 hours a day, and pet foster care shop owners can check it in real time. At the same time, the area is not open to the public to prevent guests from disturbing the foster cats.
Dog.
In addition to selling pet products on the first floor, there is also a special place for washing cats and dogs in the back. This store can pick up and drop off cats and dogs at your doorstep. Members can also enjoy half-price pet spa twice a year and free boarding for three days.
The charges are higher than other pet stores, but the membership price is cheaper. Unlike other stores, the membership level of this store is based on the level of recharge. The membership fee of this store is 300 yuan per year, which seems quite a lot.
But you can enjoy all the discounts from cat and dog washing discounts to half-price SPA, to group buying flash sales, to membership prices for all products. It can be said that it is full of consumerism traps.
Jiang Qi said he learned.
"I don't know what you need to buy today, Mr. Jiang. If you have any needs, you can tell me and I can recommend it for you." Store manager Ouyang looked at Jiang Qi with a very good attitude. He didn't look like someone who was late from get off work at all.
She could tell from the conversation just now that although Jiang Qi has three well-trained giant Alaskans, he is obviously a new pet owner.
Although it is very contradictory, store manager Ouyang can use her 10 years of experience in running a pet store to judge that this is definitely a newbie.
Raising a big dog is very expensive, and there are very few people in Xuncheng who raise such giant Alaskans.
I have never seen such an obedient Alaskan store manager Ouyang. He has been extremely well-behaved since he entered the store. He does not make noises, does not break up the house, does not protect food, and is still obedient. The most important thing is that Ouyang feels that these three dogs
The dog seems to understand what he is saying.
When she introduced the canned dog snacks available in the store, the eyes of the three dogs lit up as if they were seeing meat and bones.
Jiang Qi looked at the smiling store manager Ouyang, and all he could think about was whether he could recruit such a good store manager.
With this service attitude and spirit, it would be a shame not to go to an amusement park.
And the agency guy from last time, oh, how come such an excellent employee belongs to someone else.
"I actually need everything here, but my family has nothing now."
Just when store manager Ouyang was about to start making recommendations, Jiang Qi continued: "Let the three of them choose."
Store manager Ouyang:???
Xiao Liao, who has been quietly petting the dog’s head:???
"Woof woof woof!"
The three dogs seemed very happy about Jiang Qi's extremely liberal and democratic behavior. Lala almost jumped up and gave Jiang Qi a hug. Thinking of what happened to the new owner when she gave him a hug not long ago, Lala restrained herself.
Action, running happily towards the snack area.
Ouyang, the store manager, discovered that he could really choose these three dogs:...
"Xiao Liao, follow them and help them get things they can't reach." Store manager Ouyang said, looking at the shopping basket at the door of the store, "Give them a shopping basket for each dog."
Xiao Liao:......?
Facts have proved that although store manager Ouyang has good receptivity, his layout is still small.
One dog and one shopping basket are simply not enough.
Just for one dog, I picked out snacks from three shopping baskets, including various air-dried meats, freeze-dried meat, teething sticks, yogurt cubes, and pet milk.
He didn't pick any toys, but it could be seen that he only had snacks in mind.
Xuexue picked out a relatively average selection of toys, snacks, and cans, adding up to two big baskets.
Pry was the most calm. In addition to picking out the snacks and cans he wanted to eat, he was the only dog to pick out kennels and dog bowls. He even helped the other two pick out kennels and dog bowls.
Store manager Ouyang and Xiao Liao were both numb.
Because he bought too much, Jiang Qi became a member on the spot and recharged 8,000 yuan. The store manager Ouyang took the initiative and gave Jiang Qi two large barrels of homemade freeze-dried pet products. He also drove a van specially used to pick up and drop off pets to Jiang Qi.
Qi go back.
Xiao Liao was in the store, watching Jiang Qi leave with empty hands, Alaska with three shopping bags in his mouth, and Ouyang, the store manager holding three dog kennels.
Xiao Liao, who felt like he was in another world, suddenly took out his mobile phone and sent a message to his best friend: "Oh my God, you will never dare to imagine what I just experienced!"
Store manager Ouyang thoughtfully sent Jiang Qi and Sangou to the downstairs of Jiang Qi's house.
"Mr. Jiang, if you have any questions when raising a dog, you can contact me on WeChat at any time. If the dog feels uncomfortable, you can also contact me. I have a veterinary qualification certificate. I studied veterinary medicine in university. I used to be a
Veterinarian." Store manager Ouyang said with a smile.
"Okay, can I ask? Do you own this store or..."
"I am the store manager. Our store is a chain store and the owner is not local."
Jiang Qi felt relieved when store manager Ouyang said this, and said to the three dogs who returned home with a full load: "Let's go home."
"By the way, have you eaten today?" Jiang Qi asked as he went upstairs.
Lala nodded.
"Then one dog will eat one can tonight, and snacks will be eaten tomorrow." Jiang Qi said, taking out his mobile phone and sending a message to the butcher stall owner asking them to send an extra 9 kilograms of fresh beef every day starting from tomorrow, emphasizing that it must be fresh.
Yes, no frozen meat.
The card details specifically stated that it was fresh beef. Jiang Qi thought it would be better to feed it as stated in the card details.
"By the way, do you usually eat beef raw or cooked? The tail of the raw one doesn't move, and the tail of the cooked one wags."
The three tails that were wagging happily stopped moving for an instant.
It’s so easy to live on.
Jiang Qi said silently, and arrived at the door of his house surrounded by three dogs.
Open the door and go in.
Qiao Huifang and Jiang Xiaokang were watching TV on the sofa. When they heard the door open, Qiao Huifang subconsciously turned her head and said: "Xiao Qi, come back...ah!"
Qiao Huifang was startled by the three big dogs that came in.
It wasn't that she was afraid of dogs, but she would be frightened when she suddenly saw three such big Alaskans.
"Mom and Dad, I'm back." Jiang Qi came in and placed the doghouse in his arms in the corner. The three dogs also followed suit and placed the big bags in their mouths in the corner.
The bag was placed crookedly, and he even pushed the bag back into the corner with his head.
"I ordered three dogs in the kennel last year. They were delayed due to the renovation of the amusement park. They were kept in the kennel for a few months. The dogs just arrived today. I forgot to tell you before."
"Oh." Jiang Xiaoliang and Qiao Huifang nodded, staring at the three dogs intently.
This is the advantage of not being familiar with your parents.
If it is an ordinary family with parents who have a relatively close relationship, and the children buy three giant Alaskans and go home without saying a word, a family war is bound to break out.
But Jiang Qi's family does not have this problem. Unless Jiang Qi suddenly bought a tiger home, even if it is three large dogs, Jiang Xiaoliang and Qiao Huifang can happily accept them as long as they can explain their origins clearly.
"Xiao Qi, have you named these three dogs?" Jiang Xiaoliang looked at the three dogs, his hands ready to move.
"Took it, from left to right are Lala, Xuexue and Liaoli. They know their names, and they will react when you call them names." Jiang Qi said.
Jiang Xiaoliang & Qiao Huifang:......
"This name..." Qiao Huifang was speechless and choked for a moment.
"This name is really unique!" Jiang Xiaoliang praised, "Dogs also have spirit, our son really knows how to buy a dog!"
The first sentence may be a boast, but the latter sentence comes from the heart.
Xuexue saw Jiang Xiaoliang's intention and took the initiative to put her head into Jiang Xiaoliang's hand so that he could touch the dog's head at any time.
Jiang Xiaoliang took advantage of the situation and touched the dog and couldn't put it down. Qiao Huifang also touched Xuexue's tail when she saw this. When Lala saw that this scheming dog had occupied two people at once, she immediately squeezed in regardless of brotherly feelings.
Qiao Huifang and Jiang Xiaoliang had a great time petting the dog.
Seeing that both Jiang Xiaoliang and Qiao Huifang liked the three dogs, Jiang Qi was slightly relieved. Although he knew that his parents would definitely not object, it was better to like them than to hate them. He also sent a message to Jiang Bing to inform him.
However, these three dogs will definitely not be kept at home in the future. The card dogs are so much more obedient and sensible than ordinary dogs. Of course, they will go to the amusement park to work on their own to earn money.
Jiang Qi believes that Lala, Xue Xue and Liao Lian can also understand. After all, the three of them are also excellent workers and star attractions in their own card world.
Because of the geographical location, Jiang Qi definitely had no way to get a ski resort and let these three dogs pull the sled.
I don't know if it's possible to pull a carriage.
The sled dogs in the card world should be much stronger than ordinary sled dogs.
