The netizens started to share their own similar experiences when they saw the scene. As it turned out, a lot of people had encountered vendors who sold dyed chicks at the entrances to primary schools or junior high schools.
Because the dyed chicks were indeed very cheap, many people bought them and brought them home, but without exception, the chicks died within three days. Basically, they were too weak to consume any food the second day, and their bodies turned cold and stiff on the third day. Perhaps this had happened ten or twenty years ago, but everyone who had ever bought the chicks still remembered the sadness of keeping the chicks in their hands as they died.
What followed was the denunciation against the vendors, and even some indignant spectators suggested initiating a cyber manhunt on him, finding out where he lived and then splashing paint on his home at night, just like what he did to the chicks!
Surrounded by all kinds of pets, Snowy was dizzy, and she would consult with Zhang Zian when she saw some pets she didn’t know the names of.
Deng Jie had been impressed with the large size of the dog market when she visited in the past. Right now, she was looking around, trying to find the dog vendor who lied to her. However, the dog market was too large and there were so many people moving around. She couldn’t find the vendor at the moment.
Famous looked like a common German Shepherd, which was not surprising in the dog market and therefore did not attract too much attention. It calmly followed behind Zhang Zian, and occasionally paid attention to the movements of Snowy.
This would have been a good opportunity for Richard to show off its capabilities, but the weather was so cold that it shrank in Zhang Zian’s hood with its small head stretching out, looking at other parrots curiously and compassionately.
Zhang Zian used to know almost nothing about parrots, but after paying a trip to Phoenix House, he gained some knowledge about them more or less. Along the way, he saw several vendors selling parrots, basically limited to Green Budgies and Cockatiels, the two most common and the cheapest breeds, with the prices ranging from dozens of RMB to two hundred RMB. No wonder Guo Dongyue couldnn’t find the red-headed lovebirds that he wanted at this place...
The issues about parrots were complicated. With parrots of identical shapes but with different fur colors, such as Green Budgies and Skyblue Budgies, the price gap could be as large as one hundred times. He wondered if someone had thought of dyeing the Green Budgies into Skyblue Budgies…
Zhang Zian walked and discussed with Deng Jie about how she was frauded before. Snowy, who was walking in front of them, suddenly stopped and waved back to him. ”Mr. Store Manager, come here. There are kittens for sale.”
Zhang Zian walked over briskly.
In front of Snowy, there were several iron cages of different sizes, with one or two kittens in each cage.
On the outskirts of the dog market were those peddlers selling dyed chicks, common goldfish, and rabbits that were cheap and could easily be sold every several minutes. When they walked closer to the core of the dog market, the prices of the pets got higher, and the customers became more cautious, considering and observing in front of the stands for a long time.
There was one young man and two young girls squatting in front of the cat selling stand, staring at the kittens in the iron cages. It seemed that they were fond of the kittens very much.
Seeing Snowy, the vendor greeted her passionately, ”Hey, beauty! Do you like American Shorthairs? These are bred in my home, they are very clever! Would you like to buy one?”
Snowy squatted beside the two young girls, focusing her camera at the kittens in the cages, observing with great interests. Another youth saw the live broadcast on Snowy’s cellphone and raised his eyebrows. Just when he was about to say something, he saw Zhang Zian who was behind her, and swallowed by his words.
”Boss, are these American Shorthairs?” asked Snowy.
The kittens in the cage were very lovely. They had round eyes, black tiger stripes, and their white paws looked like they were wearing white gloves. They were opening their pink mouths and meowing, looking at Snowy from across the cage.
Though the vendor couldn’t recognize the international brands of Snowy’s clothes, he had recognized the latest Apple mobile phone in her hand and the Nike shoes on her feet. Together with her exquisite small face and delicate skin, he could tell that Snowy came from a rich family. He probably thought that such a rich girl might be stupid, so he treated her differently than the other two girls.
Without Snowy asking, he took the initiative to open one of the cages and took out the most beautiful kitten, and handed put it in her arms. The girls beside Snowy were very envious, but there was nothing they can do. One of them wanted to leave, but was halted by the other, meaning that if Snowy didn’t buy it, then they could have it.
”Come, touch it!” He said cheerfully, ”This is an authentic American Shorthair and it’s completely different than the cheap cats outside. It is extremely well-behaved and clever—it’s imported from the United States! With its excellent conditions, it might be priced over RMB 4,000 in a pet shop!”
Holding this kitten in her arms, Snowy felt this kitten was really adorable with its big eyes and pink mouth, as if it was asking her to kiss it. It she had come to this stand without knowing about the scams, she might buy it in no time…
