Chapter 15 Freeze-drying and Negative Reviews Promote Synergy Between the Freeze-drying and Biscuit Industries…
Unlike cats, dogs are less sensitive to sweetness than humans, but they can still perceive it, which is why some dogs are picky eaters.
Cats, on the other hand, have different taste buds and are not very sensitive to sweetness; they can even be said to be unable to taste sweetness.
Consuming too much sugar from fruit is actually bad for their health.
So, aside from being picked, these strawberries did not become food for the farm's cats.
Instead, they took some fresh chicken from the coop, added a tiny amount of strawberries to make a fruit puree, and gave it to the farm's furry friends to try.
Eat it as a snack, change things up, and make the kids happy.
The cats ate without even looking up, clearly preferring the fresh meat to the small amount of strawberries they had eaten.
Steaming the minced chicken was exhausting for Shi Wan. She didn't even have enough pots, so she had to use every pot she could find and steam it repeatedly.
But now, seeing her furry friend enjoying his food, she no longer felt tired and happily took pictures and videos to share with others.
Occasionally, the kitten would bite off a few strawberries, but after Shi Wan asked, she found out that it wasn't because it was craving strawberries, but because its mouth was itchy and it wanted to nibble on something.
The joy of the harvest was suddenly dampened, as this batch of fresh strawberries became a problem that Shi Wan had to solve.
The soil was fertile, the seeds were of good quality, and the plants were well cared for. The strawberry yield was quite good; nearly half an acre was planted, and a total of 3,000 catties were harvested.
Shi Wan stared in disbelief at the warehouse already piled high with red berries and urgently called for a halt.
"The cat workers will stop picking now. If they pick them all now, half of them will probably rot in the warehouse."
She looked at the pile of fruit with a headache, and while worrying, she washed some in a basin and ate them.
Chew, chew, chew, it's so delicious.
He didn't forget to pack a bag and send it to Wang Zhizhi via express delivery.
Wang Zhizhi tried one and replied with two words.
Holy crap!
Shi Wan immediately felt that she had received the greatest and most sincere praise.
She stuffed the last strawberry into her mouth, deeply regretting her foolish decision to plant all the strawberries in the first place. It was just making things worse for herself.
But looking at the lush and green planting area that she and her children had unknowingly cultivated, Shi Wan felt a great sense of accomplishment.
She spent a fortune to buy a factory disinfection card, and her 300 points vanished instantly, along with the smile on Shi Wan's face.
The ratio of sales revenue to points redemption is 1 to 100, so 300 points means she needs to accumulate 30,000 yuan in sales revenue.
This is considered cheap in the mall.
In the system's online store, items such as seeds and animals, which can be categorized as raw materials, are priced quite low.
However, for products related to factory cleaning, processing machinery, and formulations, they are basically at the top of the price list.
Every time Shi Wan browsed the online store, she would inexplicably think of the First Industrial Revolution, where machines replaced manual labor...
With a buzzing sound, Factory Building No. 2 has been completely transformed.
Shi Wan didn't get an upgrade card this time, so compared to Factory No. 1, Factory No. 2 looked a bit sloppy.
The freeze dryer that nearly bankrupted her was placed in Factory Building No. 2.
She had decided to buy a freeze dryer a long time ago. Since she was going to buy it sooner or later anyway, she might as well buy it sooner and enjoy it sooner.
I felt a little heartbroken when I confirmed the purchase.
There's a kind of heartache that comes with suddenly becoming rich, like a poor person who hasn't had a chance to enjoy it before it's all gone.
With practiced ease, Shi Wan clicked to claim the "Building Factory No. 2" achievement, hoping to get another free upgrade, but it didn't happen.
"Ding ding! Excellent young lady, you have mastered the correct way to use Meow Meow Farm! This Meow King is very pleased! Holy Flame Meow Meow Meow!"
Shi Wan clicked "claim" without any explanation, and nothing happened.
She looked around, but there was no sign of anything happening.
Shi Wan even opened the real-time map to try to find achievement rewards, but everything was normal.
Shi Wan: ?
If you're unsure what to do, contact customer service.
"Agent: The achievement reward I just claimed has disappeared?? (Cat looking confused.gif)"
"Hey~ You can check your system inventory~ (smile.jpg)"
That's a really unpleasant expression.
Although the customer service was AI-powered, Shi Wan always felt inexplicably looked down upon.
She casually opened her system inventory, took a closer look, and then emitted a sharp, explosive sound.
This is great stuff!
"MAX Comfort Cat Bed: A cat bed that looks super comfortable no matter where you put it. It can quickly restore a cat's fatigue and mood, and has a very small chance of attracting nearby stray cats (high-quality employees) to come for an interview."
Shi Wan immediately returned to the wooden house and placed the nest on the open ground next to it.
In the blink of an eye, Tangyuan had already slipped inside.
The image shows a large chicken leg.
Shi Wan touched its raised paw pads and explained the purpose of the cat bed.
Tangyuan listened attentively, crossing her legs and forgetting to lick it.
Finally, he signed an agreement with Shi Wan that they would not beat up tourists from outside the area.
One afternoon.
"Sis! What did you buy again?" Zhang Fulai asked, grimacing as he carried a large bag of packages and slowly shuffled inside.
Zhang Chang was applying a face mask inside when she heard this. She replied dismissively, "Just put it aside for now, and be careful! Don't break it! If you break it, I'll beat you so badly your own mother won't recognize you."
Zhang Fulai mimicked his older sister's words with winks and exaggerated expressions, but he didn't dare let Zhang Chang see him.
The reason is simple: fear of getting beaten up.
His sister really had the nerve to beat him up.
Zhang Chang wiped his hands and walked out of the house with great interest, "They arrived pretty quickly."
Zhang Fulai lay on the sofa, acting like a big shot, and said, "What did you buy? It's so heavy. If our building didn't have an elevator, I wouldn't have carried it for you."
Zhang Chang ignored him.
That's what they say, but if he dares not take it, Zhang Chang will let him experience the power of bloodline suppression.
As a pet blogger, Zhang Chang didn't rush to open the box. Instead, she put on beautiful makeup before setting up her camera to start shooting.
She's currently compiling a comprehensive review of pet food products on the market, with one video per brand.
This evaluation assesses pets from several dimensions, including nutritional components, ingredients, safety and compliance, palatability, and price, providing some reference for pet owners.
She originally sold products from well-known brands, but when she checked the reviews, she always saw people mentioning an unfamiliar brand.
Zhang Chang searched for "Cat Paw in Business," which is a brand that was established not long ago. The homepage didn't have many product categories, but the introduction pages of each product made her quite curious.
Looking through her homepage, she seems more like a pet blogger than anyone else.
It was full of all sorts of adorable kittens. The kittens were very well cared for, their fur was fluffy and shiny, and most importantly—
Why do these cats seem so affectionate?
Unlike her husband Zhang Guangzong, who always has a long face and needs to be replaced with freeze-dried food to touch.
I'm so angry!
But she was genuinely curious about the company's products. After browsing through them, she found many genuine reviews with pictures and text, which didn't seem like they were fake.
Zhang Chang finally bought all the products, carefully reviewed the details of each product, and wrote a script to prepare for recording a video.
If the quality is truly as claimed, it could provide other pet owners with a new option.
With that in mind, she opened her camera and started unpacking the package.
The package was well-packaged, without any squeezing, deformation, or holes. The box was decorated with cute hand-drawn cats, and Zhang Chang recognized it at a glance. "Hey, isn't that big white cat in the center our farmer Tangyuan?"
She was extremely envious. "The heterochromatic eyes are so beautiful. I also want to raise a cat with heterochromatic eyes, but I feel like I'd get beaten up by Zhang Guangzong's bad temper if I raised another one."
Upon opening the carton, the product was found to be wrapped in thick bubble wrap, preventing various problems that might occur during transportation.
“Although this packaging is a bit cumbersome, I personally have no problem with it,” Zhang Chang said, accepting it well, but not forgetting to complain, “The last brand was really stingy. They didn’t even bother to give us wrapping paper. All the cookies I received were broken, and the canned food was completely burst. I was speechless.”
She unwrapped the thick bubble wrap, "So this kind of packaging is definitely a plus for me."
There weren't many products inside, but they were neatly arranged and pleasing to the eye. She even lifted the box to show it to the camera.
"It's not that I have a prejudice against her store, it's just that these are the only categories she currently offers, and I bought them all. I'll introduce them one by one below."
“This box is…it’s the best-selling cat grass biscuits. I’ve seen a lot of positive reviews, most of which include pictures. They’re mostly from people who don’t like cat grass or hairball remedy,” Zhang Chang said, opening the box and taking out a bag. “Putting everything else aside, the packaging is really nice.”
"I've checked the test reports and certificates on the product details page; they're authentic and valid. The seller is very honest, which is a plus. The ingredients are clean and simple, another plus." She tore open the packaging. "Let's see if Zhang Guangzong will eat it."
She was about to hug the cat when she stood up and saw the cat strolling out of the bedroom.
"Oh, Zhang Guangzong's awake?"
Contrary to his usual behavior, Zhang Guangzong didn't go to eat or drink. Instead, he walked to her feet, sat down quietly, and looked up at her.
"...The sun has risen in the west?" Zhang Chang was shocked.
Zhang Guangzong treated everyone equally but was indifferent, except for her mother.
Only her mother could enjoy the pampering treatment Zhang Guangzong gave her.
Zhang Chang sat down in silence, watching Zhang Guangzong lean over and bite the cookie in her hand.
"...Its palatability is quite good."
After finishing the biscuits, Zhang Guangzong decided not to leave and waited by Zhang Chang's side.
The next jar I took out was a newly launched product: freeze-dried egg yolk, and another jar of freeze-dried strawberries, both of which are suitable for cats and dogs.
It's just not recommended to eat too much, as the portion size for each meal is indicated.
The freeze-dried strawberries were alright, but Zhang Guangzong just sniffed them and ignored them. He ate the freeze-dried egg yolks with great relish.
After finishing the food, it wanted more. Zhang Chang didn't dare to give it too much, so she quickly closed the lid and put it away. As a result, Zhang Guangzong stepped on her leg and started kneading the breast, trying to beg for more.
Zhang Chang was silent for a moment, then struggled to give two more pills before quickly putting them away in the cabinet.
Zhang Guangzong didn't like the next two items very much. They were two small jars of pet jam, packaged like toothpaste tubes. They were sugar-free and additive-free, and more suitable for dogs to trick them into drinking water or for administering medicine.
Zhang Chang squeezed out a little and licked it. The taste was okay. She looked at the ingredient list and decided to save it to share with Zhang Fulai.
Finally, there are six boxes of berry chicken puree, which are pure pet treats.
Zhang Chang gave a brief introduction to the camera as usual, and then opened a box for Zhang Guangzong.
The quantity in one box is not much; it's enough to give a child a small treat before they can eat a proper meal.
Zhang Chang was quite satisfied with the portion size of each individually packaged item.
After pausing and revising the final draft, he shared his suggestions on camera.
"This video contains no ads, I didn't get paid, it's a purely self-funded review... Based on my evaluation criteria, this brand ranks in the top three overall, and the price isn't expensive. Although it's a new brand, it's already on my repurchase list, and I'll continue to follow it."
Unsurprisingly, this video garnered a high number of views after it was released.
Shi Wan had just improved the efficiency of shipping and was about to relax for a few days when she discovered that the number of orders in the backend seemed to be increasing again.
Confused, she logged into the official account to check it out and received a large number of messages and mentions.
What Shi Wan couldn't understand the most was that a large number of negative comments appeared.
