Chapter 1317: Growing Pains
Not only the people present, but also the elves were listening to Zhang Zian's explanation.
Different flowers are in each eye, and the same words are heard by different people and elves, and they have different feelings.
In the eyes of parents, children grow up in the blink of an eye, let alone a cat that grows several times faster than humans. When you are still immersed in the memory of it being like a fluffy ball when you just bought it home, it Has grown at an astonishing rate...to a cat that needs to be neutered.
In fact, Zhang Zian played it temporarily, mainly because he had some feelings and emotions about the relationship between Fina and Cleopatra during his stay in Egypt.
He glanced back at the front of a display case in the corner of the shop where a plaster sculpture of Cleopatra, the one he bought from the Khan Khalili Market, gazed thoughtfully at the top of the cat tree. Direction, and Fina also raised her eyes to look at her at this moment.
Zhao Qi didn't get a really reliable explanation, but she didn't need an explanation anymore, and she wouldn't guess randomly anymore, because she knew that Lan Lan was protecting her in her own way, and that was enough.
She picked up the shopping bag and handbag that had been put on the ground because of her sore hands, and was about to leave.
"Ah, by the way, there is one more thing you misunderstood." Zhang Zian added: "You said that Lan Lan has grown up, but in fact she has not. Yingshou's development period is longer than most other cats. It only takes one year to become an adult, but Yingshou needs three years of development to become a full-grown adult, so Lan Lan is still a child."
"Really?" Zhao Qi was both surprised and delighted.
"Yes." Zhang Zian replied affirmatively: "If someone tells you that cats mature in one year, then you don't have to hesitate, just turn your head and leave, because the person who said this must be a layman, or a fake A layman who has become an expert, who doesn't even know such a common special case of English short, will laugh out loud in the eyes of a real expert."
"Ahem!"
Wang Gan and Li Kun coughed dryly again and again, reminding Zhang Zian not to say anything, because they also introduced it to customers before, isn't this a slap in the face?
"Well...excuse me, is Yingshou the only one who has such a long growth period?" Wang Yan asked curiously.
"Not only that, but also the puppet cats." Zhang Zian motioned them to look at the playful puppet kittens in the store, "Puppet cats are a kind of large domestic cats, and it takes about three years to grow, so some customers come to buy them." When I was a cat, I bought the Ragdoll cat when I saw it was cute, but I didn’t expect the Ragdoll cat to grow to be so big and heavy. So I always remind customers that the Ragdoll cat can grow to 20 catties when it is fully grown. Misjudged the size of the puppet cat."
Wang Yan and Zhou Jiena, as college students who have just graduated from school, have no social experience at all. They don't have an accurate concept of how much 20 catties weigh.
Not only them, in fact, many people do not have a personal feeling for the figure of 20 catties.
The solution is simple.
Zhang Zian signaled Wang Gan to go to the kitchen on the second floor and bring down a 20-jin bag of rice.
"Try carrying it and see how heavy it is 20 catties," he said.
Both Wang Yan and Zhou Jiena are thin girls. They tried to lift the rice bag... If they gritted their teeth, they could barely lift it, but it was impossible to lift the rice bag like Wang Qian.
"It's so heavy..."
They try to imagine a 20-pound big cat, but animals like leopards and tigers always come to mind.
"The Ragdoll cats are very beautiful, but choosing a Ragdoll cat means that it will be difficult to hold them after three years." Zhang Zian said, "Besides that, there are beautiful shorts."
"Wait a minute! Master, we don't study much, so don't lie to us!" Wang Gan and Li Kun were the first to express dissatisfaction.
Li Kun said: "My family has raised Meiduan, and Meiduan will not grow in a year!"
Wang Gan nodded in agreement, "Master, you are addicted to fooling around, right?"
Zhao Qi's concerns have been resolved, and he is relaxed. As a melon eater, he likes to hear and see this kind of plot of rebellion.
Zhou Jiena and Wang Yan were confused,
Because ordinary shop assistants dare not challenge the shop owner like this, right? Like those who just joined the company, not to mention facing the big boss, even the small boss is trembling, and they dare not even breathe when they are scolded, let alone refute, even if they think they are right—— From the beginning of the internship period, they have been instilled with the concept that "the superior and the customer are always right", and sometimes feel like a robot that can only nod and bow.
From this point of view, the employer-employee relationship in this store is very harmonious...
Zhang Zian said calmly, hehe, how could he make such a low-level mistake, it would be better to say that he deliberately showed his flaws, and sure enough, the two bastards Wang Qian and Li Kun were easily hooked.
"Do you think that only this kind of cat is called Mei Short?" He pointed at the Mei Short kittens running around in the store.
Wang Qian and Li Kun hadn't turned their minds around yet, thinking that Zhang Zian was referring to shorts with different fur colors, and subconsciously said, "Even if the fur colors are different, they are still shorts..."
"Don't you guys know? The so-called 'American Shorthair' is actually an abbreviation for two cats, one is 'American Shorthair' and the other is 'American Bobtail'." Zhang Zian revealed his real s answer.
"Huh? And this kind of cat?"
Both Wang Qian and Li Kun were very confused. It was the first time they heard this strange name.
"Of course there is. If you don't know, it doesn't mean it doesn't exist." Zhang Zian smiled, "The American Bobtail cat is also a cat with a very long development period, and it also needs three years for a complete development period. The American Bobtail cat The fur is medium length, not short, only the tail is short, and it is considered a new breed of cat, which was just recognized by the CFA in 2000, and it is said that their short tail is the result of a genetic mutation.”
"Master, you definitely did it on purpose!" Wang Gan and Li Kun immediately realized that Zhang Zian deliberately used the abbreviation "Mei Duan" to confuse concepts and set up traps, and they themselves acted as the opposite of pretending to be aggressive. teaching materials.
"Haha! Take it as a lesson for you." Zhang Zian did not deny that he did it on purpose.
Under normal circumstances, since the word "American Shorthair" has defaulted to "American Shorthair", when referring to American Bobtail cats, which are relatively rare in China, the full name should be used in order to avoid misunderstanding by the listener.
Zhou Jiena and Wang Yan listened fascinatedly, although they thought that cats should have long tails, cats with short tails are not cute at all, and they don’t know why this kind of cats are so popular, but after entering this pet shop, they definitely It was an eye-opener, and I heard a lot of pet knowledge that I didn't know before. It seems that entering this store to buy pets is really the right choice.
