Chapter 326 A New Member in the Family
This customer is also an old client of Sister Min. The tone of the other party does sound a bit uncomfortable, but they are in the service industry and it is not good to be mean to customers.
So Sister Min quickly looked at Shen Jingjing and explained, "Sister, this puppy looks very precious. You can't just take it home and feed it some leftovers every day. You need to feed it special dog food."
The hostess snorted dismissively, "My Yoda's dog food costs several cents a pound, and every month he needs special care and grooming, a bath, and a fixed brand of snacks. These miscellaneous expenses alone add up to several cents a month."
Sister Min nodded repeatedly and added, "This is just a small amount of money. If this little thing gets sick, it will be a disaster. It's expensive to treat pets nowadays. Don't worry about it!"
But Shen Jingjing knew all about these. It's not like she hasn't seen high-end dog breeds before. When she worked in a hotel before, she often saw wealthy guests checking in with their pets. When serving them, she would hear some new knowledge about these pets.
"I know." Shen Jingjing said softly, "I just heard that you wanted to sell it online, so I thought since you're going to sell it anyway, why not sell it to me? Name a price, and if I can accept it, then sell it to me. It's so cute, I really like it."
I thought the housekeeper in front of me just didn't understand how valuable her dog was, so she asked to buy it without thinking.
But the cost of raising a dog has been clearly told to her, but she didn't back down and still wanted me to make a quote?
The hostess couldn't help but subconsciously look at Shen Jingjing, and didn't feel that there was anything obviously outstanding about her, so she said impatiently: "If you really want to raise her, then two dollars will do."
"Sure, I'll buy it." Shen Jingjing said as her phone was unlocked. "I'll transfer it to you directly. Add me as a friend so that you can check it out from time to time in my circle of friends. Send me the food and snacks that the dog likes, and I'll buy the same for it. I'm sure it won't be wronged."
Upon hearing this, Sister Min couldn't help but widen her eyes: "Sister, are you crazy? This little thing is not suitable for people like us to raise. Two yuan is so expensive, how long will it take you to earn it!"
Moreover, food and drink will cost several cents every month, which is higher than the monthly consumption of an ordinary person.
The hostess was a little confused. How could this elder sister agree without even thinking about it?
"Big sister, you're kidding me, aren't you? I didn't really intend to sell it to you. You don't have to pretend to be rich. No one will laugh at you if you don't buy it."
"No, no, you see, I've even got my phone out. How can I be joking?" Shen Jingjing raised her hand: "Let me scan you!"
So in a confused manner, the other party sold the dog to Shen Jingjing, and Shen Jingjing transferred the money to the other party without hesitation.
The hostess was confused. She only reacted after receiving the money. She looked at Shen Jingjing and said, "Sister, come with me. I'll give you some of Yoda's things for free, as well as some dog food and snacks. Just buy them according to the brand when the time comes."
Seeing that the other party actually paid and there was no abnormality at all, the hostess's attitude changed obviously.
"I really have no other choice. If I don't find a new home for it, my mother-in-law might secretly throw it out one day."
"Sister, you must treat it well. It's very well behaved and likes to bask in the sun. Take it out for a walk more often when you have time."
"Maltese dogs are not prone to illness, but they still need to receive the necessary vaccinations every year."
Just now when I heard her making the phone call to give the dog away or sell it, I didn't sound very reluctant. But now that it has really been sold, I feel very sentimental.
"Don't worry, I will take good care of it."
Shen Jingjing didn't hesitate. She paid the money, and this little guy is now a new member of the family.
After coming out of the customer's house, Sister Min still found it unbelievable that Shen Jingjing actually spent two dollars to buy a dog!
"Jingjing, if you like puppies, you can go to the pet market to buy them. Puppies there are so cheap." Sister Min still didn't understand and thought Shen Jingjing was impulsive buying: "These wealthy customers raise dogs that are all about whether their bloodline is pure and their appearance is good. They are so expensive that they are sold at more than people. They are also delicate and can't be fed this or that."
Shen Jingjing just smiled faintly when she heard this: "I hadn't thought of buying a puppy or a kitten before, but today is the right time, right? And this puppy is so cute, good appearance is different, it attracts people at first sight."
Sister Min shook her head speechlessly. She was really cute, but when she thought of the price, she couldn't help but feel sorry for Shen Jingjing.
In the evening, Shen Xing, Jiang Ran and Shi Jingming went to "Ma Jie Spicy Skewers" together.
It was a rare day that they didn't have evening self-study, but the restaurant was so busy that even though they came early, they still had to wait in line for more than an hour before they could eat.
"I'm starving. I'm drooling just sitting at the door and smelling the food inside." Shi Jingming looked at Shen Xing and said with a smile, "Xing, I ate as much as I could. I'm going to make you spend money again today!"
"No problem. Don't be polite with me today. I invited you here to eat just to thank you. You must enjoy the meal. Order whatever you want."
Jiang Ran said: "Then I want to eat shabu-shabu tripe, yellow throat and pig brain!"
Shi Jingming couldn't help but grin when he heard the word "pig brain": "You're the only one who loves to eat this stuff, it makes your blood boil."
"How delicious! You really have terrible taste!"
Then Shen Xing whispered, "I'll eat a pig brain too!"
Shi Jingming stared at Shen Xing with wide eyes, while Jiang Ran raised her eyebrows proudly: "There's nothing to say to people who don't eat pig brains."
"Okay, I was wondering how you two could study so well, it turns out you're using your 'pig brains' to fill the gap!"
The three of them ordered a lot. It was the first time for Shen Xing to eat this kind of spicy skewers. All the skewers were boiled and inserted upside down in an iron basin. The iron basin was full of fragrant red oil, and the color was very tempting.
No one had time to talk because they were so hungry. When the full bowl was brought to them, the three of them couldn't wait to start eating.
Only after he had devoured more than a dozen skewers and suppressed his hunger did Shi Jingming look at Shen Xing curiously and ask, "Aren't you from Shenzhen and Hong Kong? How can you eat spicy food so well?"
They ordered medium spicy, but it was still quite spicy, and those who can't handle spicy food would find it unbearable even slightly spicy.
Shen Xing smiled somewhat smugly: "You didn't expect that? I can really eat spicy food. My mom and my eldest sister also like spicy food, but my second sister can't. She likes sour food."
