Chapter 94: The Third Elfin

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

Sun Xiaomeng parked the car in front of the pet clinic. The auto parts store next door was about to open. The fat owner rolled up the shutter door and said hi to Sun Xiaomeng. "Good morning, beautiful! Coming to work?"

Although she spent an hour and a half back and forth to the breeding base, it was only a little past 8:30 – a normal time to open the store.

All the staff, including the owner in the auto parts store, were all male. They sometimes said hi to her so she was used to it.

"Good morning, Uncle Niu!" she didn’t talk much, locked her car and walked in her clinic.

Zhang Zian already finished cleaning. He was watching a TV show called Man and Nature in the waiting room.

"Liar Zhang!" She threw her purse on the table and screamed angrily. Her face was all red and said, "You intentionally made a fool out of me, didn’t you?"

"It was just a joke. You don’t need to get mad." He was eating the free candies from the front desk with his legs across and said, "I was going to tell you but thought that you would not believe. So, I just let it go." He made it sound like it was Sun Xiaomeng’s fault.

She was speechless hearing his explanation. She stared at him and said, "you had to at least try! Otherwise, how are you so sure I don’t believe you?"

"Okay. If I told you that I had my customers bathe their own cats, would you believe me?"

"I…" honestly, she didn’t think anyone would be that stupid. However, she knew her dad would not joke about things like that. Therefore, it might be true.

"There you go." His face was innocent as if he was saying, look, I knew you wouldn’t believe me.

"Okay. Tell me how you did it then," she couldn’t help asking.

He replied calmly, "Business secret."

She was silent. After all, it made sense. His business started to pick up in such a short time. There had to be some untold secrets. Otherwise, he would lose his advantages.

Zhang Zian changed the subject. "What is up with the two dogs and one cat in your ward?"

She sighed, shaking her head.

Zhang Zian already knew before she said anything – the owners had to abandon the pets after taking them to the clinic. They didn’t want to pick up the pet and pay for the treatment costs. In other words, they would never come back.

It was normal. Every pet clinic or hospital had encountered this situation.

The owner didn’t want to pay for the high costs of treating the pet; however, they didn’t want to watch their pet die, so they sent them to the clinic. If the vet didn’t save them, then it was not the owner’s fault.

What was even more annoying was that the vets had to pay for the treatment and they could not get rid of the pets. They could only continue keeping the pets with their own money. If the owner came back for their pet after they were given away or sent to the shelter, then the clinic would be in trouble.

This would cause a dead circle. The clinic already lost money treating those pets; therefore, such costs would be transferred to consumers. They had to increase the service charge to keep the clinic running. The increased costs caused complaints and then some customers would turn into abandoners due to financial pressure.

The only way out was to push pet insurance like western countries.

In fact, pet insurance was already available in the market, but it wasn’t popular.

If pet insurance was a mandatory item that all pet stores had to carry, just like someone had to get insurance for their car, then it would solve the problem. However, it would increase the cost of pets. No one would like to see that.

Also, to calculate the premium and claims would be very tricky. It required large amounts of data for the calculation. Honestly, only Stars Pet Chain Supermarket was capable in doing so.

He was in the zone thinking about those problems when his cell phone chimed.

He didn’t say much, tapped her on the shoulder and said, "I’ve got to go. Think about the membership matter and call me."

He left before she responded.

"Rush rush rush…" she shook her head.

Zhang Zian was about to walk towards the bus station. Then a message popped up showing the location of the pet. He stopped.

It showed that the location was in a small mountain in the Northeast side of the city. There was no bus to go there.

He could only get there in a taxi.

"Hi, can you take me to Yinwu Mountain?" he asked the driver. Some drivers were not willing to go beyond the border of the city.

"Sure!" the driver nodded quickly.

"Thank you so much. You did me a big favor." He hopped in the taxi and said, "Please hurry."

The driver laughed, "Yo, gentleman. Are you rushing to see your girlfriend?"

Zhang Zian chuckled, "Haha…"

Most taxi drivers are chatterboxes. They could talk about everything and anything, from celebrity gossip in China to the presidential election in the US.

As soon as the trip started, the driver could not stop talking. "Young kids like yourself love going to Yiwu Mountain for a date. It is a nice place. Quiet, fresh air, nice view. They can talk as they hike. Sometimes they may get lucky…"

Zhang Zian was amused. This driver was quite inappropriate.

The driver turned around, looked at him and giggled, "Did you bring a condom? You have to be careful on these things…"

Oh my goodness! The driver worried too much. He should’ve just shut up and driven the car!

"Oh…sir, please look forward. Don’t turn around and look at me. I don’t want to die yet!" Zhang Zian felt quite nervous when the driver kept looking at him.

"That’s fine. That’s fine. I drive on this road every day. I can drive with my eyes closed." The driver continued to turn around. "Young man, even though I am bald now, I was very handsome when I was younger. So many pretty girls chased after me!"

Zhang Zian was embarrassed. This driver was crazy!
