Chapter 109: The Survey

Chapter 109: The Survey

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Before Stars Pet Chain Supermarket on the east side started its promotion, the number of customers for Zhang Zian seemed to drop a little. However, as soon as the promotion began, his customers remained at the same level as last weekend.

People who came in the store would not always spend money. Pets are not a necessity. Most people would compare prices and then make a decision. As long as the customers remembered Amazing Fate Pet Shop, it was better than nothing.

He was always busy during the day.

Zhang Zian copied a short survey. If a customer completed a survey, he/she would get a free small calendar, no matter if they spent any money in the store. Zhang Zian bought those calendars in bulk. This year was half gone, so he got those calendars for dirt cheap…

A. BBS

B. Internet influencers

C. Friends

D. Happened to walk by

(Note: Don’t worry. The owner will not run away with some hot chick because he is still in search of one.)

Wang Qian pointed at the note, "Master, you don’t have to add the note. You will never get one anyways."

Li Kun kicked him from the back, "Don’t tell the truth!"

Zhang Zian got mad. "Leave! Both of you!"

What the f*ck? Why didn’t anyone pick D in question 5?

For diversity of cats, some people wanted to add Ragdolls, Maine Coons and Bombays… For dogs, some people would like to see Cavalier King Charles Spaniels, Lhasa Apsos, Tibetan Mastiffs and… damn single dogs?

It was true that Pets’ Home Breeding Base only had some very common breeds. That was also the reason he tried to convince Sun Yinian for an update in strategy. In fact, adding more breeds was not as easy as it looked. They could only take one step at a time.

The less popular pets that people wanted such as snakes, fish and birds... now was not good timing.

Regarding age, most customers from the BBS were older. Customers that came from influences were younger. Some people picked D - Always 18, just like Mr. Manager.

The most important question was question #4. The average amount people were willing to pay for a membership was 1300 Yuan. Of course, the number of surveys were very limited, so he could only use it as a reference.

"Master, we are done," Wang Qian and Li Kun reported.

"Okay, you may leave now. I have something going on tonight. I can’t have dinner with you," Zhang Zian replied without looking up.

Normally, Zhang Zian closed the store around 7 or 8 o’clock. He had to close early tonight because he had an appointment with Xiao Yan to go over the membership system in her salon. He didn’t want to go late at night.

Old Time Tea’s friendliness was not high enough yet, so she could not leave the store. Xinghai was scared of people, so he had to put her in his cell phone. As he was about to put Fina in his cell phone, she raised her head and said proudly, "I want to go with you."

Zhang Zian thought that would be okay, so he brought her along.

The bus would be too crowded at this time. He also didn’t want Fina to hurt anyone on the bus, so he decided to take a taxi.

A taxi stopped right in front of him. He asked the driver, "Sir, may I bring my cat?"

The driver turned around and looked at Fina. "Is she well-behaved?"

Zhang Zian assured him, "Very much so!"

"That’s fine. She looks quite clean," the driver agreed.

Zhang Zian opened the door. Fina jumped in, and then he hopped in.

"I would like to go to Glamour Beauty Salon. Do you know where it is?" he asked.

"Yes. Of course." The driver started the car.

"Okay. Thank you."

The driver looked at Fina from the rearview mirror. "Your cat is very pretty. Did you get her from a pet store?"

Fina didn’t look at the driver. She turned around and stared at the night view of the city. It was getting dark. Everything seemed so dim under the orange street lights. The LED signs were flashing, and young people were getting out for night-life… nights in the city were beautiful, yet very different from the day.

Zhang Zian was surprised. "Do you know about Amazing Fate Pet Shop?"

"Of course! I am a taxi driver, a walking map! I don’t even need the GPS."

"Ha-ha, that’s true."

"That store has been around for quite a while. Most older drivers know about it."

"Oh… do you know about the owner?" He was interested.

The driver shook his head, "nope. We only drive. We don’t get out of the car when we get to a destination."

"Well, that’s too bad." Zhang Zian said, "The owner is a super-hot guy."

The driver laughed. "Really?! Well, good thing I am not interested in hot guys."

"Yeah. You should tell your female passengers. They have to be interested in hot guys. Maybe they will tip you more," Zhang Zian continued, shamelessly.

The driver seemed to realize something. Looking at the rear view mirror, he said surprisingly, "Your cat seems to despise you. What’s going on?"

Zhang Zian didn’t look back. "You think too much! She is a cat, not a person. How could she despise me?" He was trained to look at Fina without turning his head.

"No! No! No! That’s true. The cat takes a weird look at you! That is exactly how my wife looks at me when I smell! Oh no!"

The driver kept checking out Fina from the rearview mirror. He was so excited that there was no logic in his words… Zhang Zian could understand how the driver felt at the moment.

"Sir, you’d better drive. I don’t want to die yet!" He was surprised that all taxi drivers liked looking back when they drove.

They got to the destination safely. Zhang Zian paid and got off with Fina. The driver kept looking at Fina as he left.

"Hey, can you behave when we are out?" Zhang Zian said.

Whatever, Fina responded.

Glamour Beauty Salon was standing right in front of him.
