It was a long way to the bird breeding base. The driver was talkative, so it wasn’t too boring of a car ride.
Guo Dongyue remained silent to strangers. He was a pragmatist, so he wasn’t interested in talking to a driver that he would only meet with for a short while. He closed his eyes to rest as soon as he got in the car.
Zhang Zian chatted with her for a bit and then finally asked the most important question: ”Do you know any of the staff members in Phoenix House? We want to get a bird and were wondering how to get a discount.”
”I am sorry. I don’t know anyone,” she smiled with an ”I-am-sorry” face. ”I have been there once or twice. Some bird pooped on me every time I was there. I hate it.”
Zhang Zian perked up when he heard that birds pooped on her. He realized something important: ”You mean, the birds’ house is all open?”
”Yes, it is all open,” she said excitedly. ”As soon as you walk in, tons of birds will fly towards you. It is extremely overwhelming. Everyone is shocked when they go for the first time.”
”Well, it looks like the owner really knows how to raise birds,” Zhang Zian praised from the bottom of his heart. He had never been to a birds’ house before and he only knew the A-B-Cs. He knew from his parents’ experience that an open birds’ house was much more difficult to manage than raising the birds in a cage. The cost was also a lot higher. It looked like the owner was not only capable, but also knew what he was doing.
”Yeah. I heard many bird lovers go there.” She was paying attention to the road. ”I don’t know much about it. I like cats more.”
She adjusted the rearview mirror to look at Fina and Snowy Lionet as she spoke.
Although it was the first time Snowy Lionet had been in a car, it soon got used to it. Every time the car turned, it pretended to lose balance and leaned on Fina. Fina would push it away with one paw.
”Hey, your cats are cute. Do you have more?” Jamie was truly fond of the cats. ”I have three cats at home already, but I can’t help myself when I see nice cats like that.”
”I am sorry. That’s all I’ve got.” Zhang Zian understood these cat lovers. He wasn’t surprised, ”You have three cats at home? Are they expensive?”
”Yeah! They cost a lot. I am driving in my spare time to make some money for their cat food, ha-ha!” she laughed.
”You can buy cat food from my store; I will give you a nice discount.” Zhang Zian wouldn’t let any business opportunity slip away.
”Thank you! I buy all my cat food from overseas. I am nervous about buying Chinese-made cat food. There are too many negative reports about it,” she rejected indirectly.
