Lin Gui, facing employment troubles upon graduating from university, fortunately bound herself to a pet snack shop. To avoid becoming a capitalist's workhorse, Lin Gui gritted her teeth and dec...
Chapter 27
Leopard Boss is a very kind cat. When he saw that the little tortoise was afraid, he said to it, "If you are afraid, stay away from them."
The tortoiseshell cat was now relaxed and ready to run away if the timing was not right, but Tang Mingcheng was also very polite. He first bought the cat's favorite snacks and placed them in front of the tortoiseshell cat instead of trying to touch it at the beginning. When the tortoiseshell cat relaxed its vigilance and started to eat the snacks, Tang Mingcheng did not harass it and respected the cat's thoughts.
This behavior immediately won the favor of the tortoiseshell cat, and it boldly spoke to the leopard boss: "Boss, I think he is a very nice person, meow."
The leopard boss ignored it and climbed to a higher place on its own. When the hawksbill turtle saw that the leopard boss ignored it, it felt that the atmosphere was stagnant and no one cared about the kitten's embarrassment, so it slowly lowered its head to eat its snacks. Its one extroversion was exchanged for a lifetime of introversion.
This time, because there were many people in the store, Boss Leopard was trying every means to climb onto the automatic filling shelf, but there was no leverage nearby. He tried twice but failed to climb up. Boss Leopard was very angry, turned around and jumped onto Lin Gui's shoulder.
"Ah, boss, what about you?" Although Zhou Xiao was addicted to petting cats, he still cared about his boss.
"It's okay, it won't hurt anyone." Lin Gui trusted Leopard Boss very much. Seeing Leopard Boss squatting on her shoulder, she reached out to help it.
The leopard boss's body shape is relatively large among cats. When he first jumped onto Lin Gui's shoulder, only two claws were placed on it. Then he kicked his hind legs a few times and swung around like a Hot Wheels for a while. Only one foot climbed up, and the other foot was standing on the hand that Lin Gui handed over. This posture was really a disgrace to the boss's style.
Boss Leopard may have also discovered it, so he quickly used Lin Gui as a fulcrum to jump onto the shelf. This time Boss Leopard was obviously successful.
"Wow." "Oh." Their exclamations came from under the shelves. Leopard Boss looked down at the humans and cats under the shelves and smiled triumphantly.
But Lin Gui felt that this was too dangerous, and there were going to be customers coming into the store. It would not be good if the customers or the Leopard Boss were scared, so she called it to come down.
Boss Leopard obviously didn't care about Lin Gui and squatted there calmly. Lin Gui suddenly had an idea and went to his account to buy a cat toy. This time, Lin Gui drew a cat toy with golden feathers. Without asking how rare 009 was, he just raised it up to see if he could attract Boss Leopard.
All cats love cat teasers. Even though Leopard Boss is gifted and not tempted by snacks, it is obvious that he is curious about this cat teaser. When Lin Gui lifted it up and shook it again and again, Leopard Boss finally gave up the idea of being on a high place and jumped down from the shelf easily. It was not as difficult as climbing up.
Lin Gui breathed a sigh of relief when she saw Leopard Boss finally coming down. She took the cat toy in her hand and showed it to Leopard Boss carefully.
The mixed-breed golden shaded cat is named Tiao Tiao. According to it, it got the name because it jumps relatively high. Although it was eating the snacks given to it by Zhou Xiao, its eyes were always on Leopard Boss. After seeing Leopard Boss's two fancy moves, it was finally convinced by Leopard Boss.
Here, the leopard boss was studying the cat toy in Lin Gui's hand, wanting to see what it was, and actually succeeded in attracting its attention.
Seeing that it was just a few feathers, it was dismissive. However, as soon as Lin Gui moved the cat toy, its attention was attracted by it. "Damn, I was controlled by these feathers." The leopard boss was unwilling to accept this and decided to get some desensitization treatment.
Sure enough, cats are attracted to cat teasers and ball-shaped objects.
Lin Gui was very happy to see that something finally attracted Baobao's attention. The leopard boss was too attentive, and Lin Gui was worried that it would be hurt in the future.
Gradually, more people came to the store, so Zhou Xiao and the others could no longer just pet the cats and started to work. However, Tiaotiao, Hawksbill Turtle and Leopard Boss were different. They still had a certain fear of humans.
The leopard boss is the boss after all. Although his attention is on competing with the cat toy, he still cares about his little brothers and will leave if they feel uncomfortable.
So Tiaotiao and Daimao quickly left the store, and before leaving, they did not forget to take away the snacks they had not finished eating. Leopard Boss was not afraid of humans, so he stayed in the store and vowed to defeat these furs.
Lin Gui couldn't spend all her time playing with Leopard Boss, so she tied a cat toy to the fence and locked Leopard Boss inside with Da Huang, letting them play separately.
The fence that originally looked very large was divided into two scenes, one was the fight between the leopard boss and the cat toy, and the other was the love between Dahuang and Xiaogutou.
Ever since Dahuang started walking with Maomao frequently, they haven't fought each other. Lin Gui couldn't help but sigh that Dahuang is such a good dog with stable emotions and strong tolerance. 009 knows that Dahuang often shows off with other puppies, but it has never told Lin Gui about this, because what's wrong with puppies just showing off their owner's love for them?
So in the end, the leopard boss just plucked out all the hairs from the cat toy and finally won.
Now that she no longer has to take care of the two self-managing cats and dogs, Lin Gui has devoted herself to the operation of the small shop. After posting a few videos of making snacks, the number of fans of Ertu Snack Shop has gradually increased, and the previous negative reviews have now been suppressed by more positive reviews.
More and more users from other places have seen the recipe for making the snacks, but due to distance restrictions they cannot purchase them immediately. Parents who care about their furry children will follow Lin Gui’s videos to learn. Although their own furry children will eat the snacks and are very happy, they always feel that they are not as excited as seeing this snack.
The snacks produced by the system cannot be replicated at present. Even Lin Gui, who follows 009's method and strictly complies with the requirements from buying vegetables, can only make them 80% similar, so Lin Gui's snacks are unique on the market.
When Lin Gui was replying to the comments seriously, he received a series of unfamiliar phone calls from Ping City, so Lin Gui picked up the call.
"Guess who I am." A clear female voice came from the other end of the phone. The voice was unfamiliar but the tone was familiar. It must be Jiang Yi. Lin Gui guessed it right.
"Hey, how did you know it was me?" Jiang Yi complained on the other end.
"It means we have a tacit understanding. I knew it was you the moment I heard it," Lin Gui replied. Then he asked, "Are you okay now? What's the specific situation?"
"I'm telling you, it's amazing, and it has something to do with you."
Lin Gui was very curious after hearing this and asked Jiang Yi to continue.
"My brother filled milk bottles for Aduo and me before leaving this morning and asked me to give it to Aduo. I was half asleep and took the wrong one. I drank all of Aduo's milk and then gave Aduo my milk. I didn't notice it until the evening. It was only when my brother came back and saw that Aduo hadn't finished the milk in her bowl that he suspected I had taken the wrong one."
"Then, my brother didn't even ask me how I was. Instead, he went to check on A-Duo. He wasn't worried about me drinking the dog milk, but worried that A-Duo might be lactose intolerant. It was really annoying. As a result, I felt an itchy throat the next day, and after coughing a few times, I felt like the sound I made was brighter than before."
"Are you completely recovered now?" Lin Gui asked.
"Of course, I went to the doctor and told you after I was completely stable," Jiang Yi said proudly. "I'm completely well now, without any sequelae. I was curious why drinking dog milk could cure my voice."
Lin Gui: "Wow, wow, it's good that it's healed. It should have nothing to do with animal milk. Maybe it was just a coincidence." After asking 009, 009 said that although animal milk is rich in nutrients, it has no therapeutic function. Lin Gui got the answer and answered Jiang Yi firmly.
Jiang Yi: "That should be the case. My brother said so too. I can finally speak. I'm tired of typing."
"Oh, by the way, I'm here to tell you something. My brother's hospital is teaming up with all the pet hospitals in the city to hold a pet snack expo. We're inviting famous pet snack shops from both home and abroad to participate. It'll be open for two or three days, with booths showcasing their products, lectures on pet food, and a pet snack competition to see which snacks are the most popular with pets."
"I heard it secretly in the conference room and came to tell you as soon as possible," said Jiang Yi.
"Really? Why is this competition being held suddenly?" Lin Gui asked curiously.
"I know, I know. It seems that it was my brother who proposed it, because your animal milk has fed many weak animals before. My brother thought that pets could also use it as a nutritional supplement, so he came up with this idea." Jiang Yi carefully recalled the news he had heard and told Lin Gui.
Lin Gui thanked Jiang Yi for the notice: "Then I have to prepare in advance. Thank you so much for the notice."
"Hey, who are we going to fight? I'm counting on you, you'll definitely take first place."
Lin Gui smiled sideways and joked with Jiang Yi, "Haha, that must be me. If I take second place, who would dare to take first place?" After that, Jiang Yi hung up the phone after a few words because she had other things to do. According to her, in order to satisfy her urge to talk, she now took on the customer service work of the hospital. She must have received an incoming call.
After hanging up the phone, 009 was anxious: "Host, is this news confirmed? My snacks will finally be world-famous."
Lin Gui wanted to dampen 009's confidence, otherwise it would have been very excited for the next few days, so he said, "The news is not confirmed yet. Jiang Yi heard the content of the application and may not have agreed to implement it yet. We have to wait for the official notification to confirm it."
"But we can prepare in advance."
In the next few days, Lin Gui would check Ping City’s official account every day. Generally, any activities in the city would be displayed on it.
Finally, two days later, when Lin Gui was refreshing the official account, the account was updated. At the same time, Jiang Li also called, followed by the system broadcast of the successful upgrade.
