Chapter 60: Increase Friendliness

In the morning, Little Celery came over to feed the hamsters as usual. At the same time, she was also interested in the Miniature Lop. It seemed that she liked ”small” animals… to be precise, she was fond of little rodents with two large teeth.

Zhang Zian secretly giggled when he looked at Little Celery, for she was at the stage where she was losing her baby teeth.

Almost at the same moment as when Little Celery was about to leave, Sun Xiaomeng drove by and pulled up to the roadside.

Zhang Zian didn’t wait for her question. He walked up to her window, put on a frowny face and cottoned up to her unconfidently.

”Xiaomeng, I didn’t sleep well all night. Look, we are friends. How could you make your own friend clean for you, right? Regarding our bet, how about...”

”Trying to call off the bet? Please don’t even ask!” Sun Xiaomeng refused firmly, ”If you could not sell those seven pets in seven days you’d better show up at my clinic next Monday morning at 7 o’clock. I already bought you work clothes, mops, brooms and disinfectants!”

He was waiting for her words and asked immediately, ”What if I sold ...”

”If you sold them all, I would treat you to lunch for a week. I promise!” Sun Xiaomeng said confidently with her sunglasses on her face.

”Okay. That’s what I want to hear,” of course Zhang Zian was confident. He already sold four. It should be quite promising to sell three pets in six days.

His sudden change in attitude made her wonder. She looked at her watch. It was still early and she didn’t have any appointments yet. It was a good time to get out of the car and find out what was happening in the store.

Zhang Zian pointed to the locked door, ”Sorry! We are closed temporarily. I want to take a walk. There are no guests at this time of day anyways.”

Sun Xiaomeng was speechless. ”It won’t work if you don’t work hard. How could you even make a living off the pet store? It is hard to own a store. Why don’t you close your store and find a normal job?”

Zhang Zian shrugged and snickered.

She waved, stepped on the gas and drove off.

Zhang Zian just wanted to joke around with her. If it was a time before owning Fina Zhang Zian would be looking forward to seven days of free lunch. Even if he obtained the free lunches he would have to cook anyways for Fina. This was very troublesome.

Sun Xiaomeng’s words might be tough for some people, but he knew that she was right. What she said made perfect sense. She was in the industry and had seen the opening and closing of many pet stores. Over 80 percent of newly opened pet stores closed within the first year. If the pet store was going to fail anyways, it would be wiser to close it now and find an alternative way out.

However, Sun Xiaomeng did not know everything about him. Although he was just an ordinary man with no special ability, he had two very powerful helpers. If it wasn’t for Galaxy, who attracted the first customer into the store, he wouldn’t know how far he could go. Fina, on the other hand, showed him the prosperous future of the store.

People should repay kindness with gratitude. Stories about pets paying back their masters are touching. It should work both ways. People should not take their pets for granted when they do things for them. Those people don’t deserve the name ”human.” They should turn into a cockroach after they die.

Galaxy loved to play hide and seek. Zhang Zian would play with her no matter how tired he was. Fina liked shining things ... so he closed the store this morning for he was planning to go to the jewelry store down by the city center. He wanted to repay his pet’s love; it didn’t matter to him if he missed a few customers while he was out.

In case something happened, he printed out a note and posted it on the door: The toilet is blocked. The owner is out searching for a bathroom. Customers please be patient.

He was worried to leave Fina and Galaxy in the store, so he started the ”pet hunter” game and put them into the pet bar. Galaxy could have followed him to the city, but she was afraid of people and hated crowded places. Fina was not scared of crowds at all, but she was not approachable enough. The game prompted that she could not leave ”home” - that is, the store.

The game provided a total of 10 pet bars, five for real pets and five for Elfin pets. At this time, two out of the five Elfin pet bars were occupied while the real pet bars were all empty.

Zhang Zian noticed that behind the lit pet bars, there were some dark ones. He clicked those but a ”not unlocked” sign popped up.

”Navigation Elf, are these 10 pet bars the only open ones?” he asked.

[Navigation Elf]: The game only provides 10 pet bars by default. If the player captures and tames a pet that is or above epic level, two free pet bars will be unlocked. Free pet bars can be allocated at the player’s wish.
