Chapter 319 Dog Castle
It’s so high, if a dog falls down, it will most likely die on the spot!
Liang Yan was also curious about this question and she asked her uncle and aunt.
"My uncles and aunts said that high-rise buildings are closed, so there is no need to worry about someone tricking a dog out of the window with food. There is also no need to worry about a dog being too lonely and taking the dog to its owner's house. Even if a dog is lost, there are surveillance cameras on every floor and elevator, so the culprit can be found quickly."
"Wow, that's very thoughtful!"
When Liang Yan heard Su Yu praising those uncles and aunts, he was as happy as when Su Yu praised himself!
"Yes! Uncles and aunts said that some dogs can't adapt to the weather here. In summer, they have to turn on the air conditioner all the time or lie on ice. We can provide such an environment here! There is also an experience hall!"
"Can I go see it?"
"Of course!"
Liang Yan shook his father's hand. Zhu Xueheng resigned himself to his fate and took his little princess downstairs.
They took the elevator to the eighth floor and saw the Winter Experience Hall. The service staff came forward to introduce the services here to them.
"We have divided it into several areas according to different purposes."
The first area is a low temperature area purely for dogs.
“This is a place for long-haired dogs to cool off. After the official operation, various ice cubes will be filled into these empty bags.
This special fabric can retain heat to a certain extent, delaying the melting of ice cubes. After the ice cubes melt, they will not wet the fabric and make our dog customers feel uncomfortable.
The innermost area is an ice bed that keeps the room cool all the time. Ice beds are expensive and require a lot of maintenance, so that’s the VIP area.”
Before there is any profit, the operation of the entire region is conservative.
The second area is a zone for humans and dogs to play together.
“When customers come with their dogs, this area will be covered with snow. Customers can have snowball fights with their dogs here.”
The waiter clicked on their promotional video. In the video, a man and a dog were having fun.
The third area...
After Su Yu and her friends finished their tour here, they went to see the base that shelters stray dogs.
As soon as dogs are allowed to be adopted here, overcrowded shelters in Kyoto will send dogs that exceed the breeding capacity here.
When Su Yu and her friends went over, they saw that the more than 100 dog cages on the second floor were already filled with dogs.
“So many!”
Tang Can thought that there were a lot of stray cats on his side, but he didn't expect that there were quite a few on Liang Yan's side as well.
"Your base is at a disadvantage! Dogs need more space!"
The second floor can only accommodate a hundred dogs at most, and any additional dogs sent here have to live on the third floor.
But her cat base is different. Even if her cat base uses a double-storey villa for cats, each floor of the base can accommodate more than 300 cats. Relatively speaking, the space pressure is much smaller.
"Yes, and taking care of their eating, drinking, pooping, etc. is very labor-intensive. Some stray dogs have not been taught how to use the doggie toilet, which adds a lot of work to the staff here!"
Liang Yan was also worried. Her father told her before he came that if she wanted to continue to accept stray dogs, she would have to increase the number of service staff. This also meant that the monthly expenditure of the Dog Castle would have to increase!
But her dog castle has no income at the moment!
"Huohuo, do you want to allow people to start a live broadcast? Many people would like to watch Yang Cheng!"
Many people would love to see these stray dogs being raised into cute and well-behaved dogs.
Liang Yan was a little worried, "But it's too expensive to find a professional to do live broadcast all the time."
The staff should have at least one commentator, one cameraman, and one commentator who can take turns. The commentator can be responsible for network operation. Also, cameras that can broadcast live are very expensive!
Whether in the early or later stages, it is very difficult to earn back the money spent on hiring these three people!
"Is there surveillance here? Can the surveillance be imported into a video APP? Have someone try to adjust it and use a robot to live-stream the surveillance? The kind that can be used 24 hours a day!"
Su Yu's family sells this kind of robot.
"But the surveillance images are of low quality. Will it affect the reputation of our other money-making projects?"
Adopting stray dogs is purely for the sake of generating electricity. Both Liang Yan and Zhu Xueheng are prepared to lose money.
"Maybe it's up to you to decide whether to take the risk or not!"
Liang Yan looked up at Zhu Xueheng, who had a wooden face.
"Baby, you have to make your own decision!"
Liang Yan lowered his head, "Then I'll think about it!"
Tang Can is also considering it!
Her cat castle is similar to Liang Yan's dog castle. Maybe the experience here will also be effective for her cat castle?
After leaving the stray dog base, Su Yu followed Zhu Xueheng to a local specialty restaurant.
"This is a Chinese restaurant that specializes in Chinese rural dogs. You can try it and give me some suggestions."
The dining area here is divided into two parts. One part is the dining area for people to sit, and the other part is the dining area for dogs.
The Chinese rural dog theme restaurant here is reflected in some of the restaurant's designs, all of which are designed in the style of various Chinese rural dogs.
The dishes served by the waiter were also shaped like dogs on plates. The drinks and snacks after the meal were also shaped like dogs.
"Do you like it?"
This shop is owned by Zhu Xueheng. He personally taught the style, so he naturally hopes that Su Yu and the others will like it!
Su Yu nodded, "Uncle, you can add something more attractive!"
"What?"
"Lottery! For example, you can enter a lottery based on how much you spend in a restaurant here. The prizes can be money, tickets, experience cards for daycare centers, dog supplies that you sell, etc."
Everyone likes free stuff. Adhering to the idea of not taking advantage of a good deal, she believes that many people will come and try it.
As long as people come and spend money, there will be no loss!
Zhu Xueheng didn’t consider this, he was very confident that his restaurant would be a big hit!
Liang Yan looked at his father expectantly, "Dad, do you want us to see what we don't want and want to give away?"
Liang Yan thought, if he gave away the things that they didn't want but others wanted, in exchange for the sales here, he wouldn't lose money, right?
Zhu Xueheng was helpless, as most of the things they didn't want were defective, and for the sake of the restaurant they couldn't just serve defective products to customers!
"Let me think about it!"
If you want to go the raffle route, it's best to have it all the time, otherwise the customers' enthusiasm will fade. If there is a raffle for a period of time and no raffle for another period of time, during the period without the raffle, customers may go to other places to eat and not come here!
After dinner, Zhu Xueheng was preoccupied, while Su Yu and the other two heartlessly picked out some special key chains, pillows, and dolls, put them in the car, and then made a fuss about going home!
