Pet King

Section 718 of the road to Rome

Zhang Zi An pondered a bit. The 90% of his store’s profits were from cats and dogs. If he couldn’t sell cats and dogs, he really could only close down.

The national conditions of Germany and China are different after all, and the policies and laws are not comparable. Germany is a country that can live very well even if it eats a subsistence allowance. At least tens of millions of people in China are eating soil. It is not wise for the country to take out the funds and energy that should improve the national economy and people’s livelihood to protect pets. .

However, he has generated a greater interest. What can a pet store rely on to sell cats and sell dogs to such a large scale?

Reina replied: “Of course, by selling pet supplies, accessories and feeds – we are attracting customers with novelty pets, but the customers who buy the most are still these things.”

“You may not know that China’s online shopping is super developed. Most people buy these things online. It is easy to shop around and choose the cheapest one… I don’t want you to say that I buy the cat food in my store. Not bad, other pet supplies are flat and the profits are very low.” Zhang Zi An complained.

After the love pet incident, the sales of common cats and dogs in Binhai City fell sharply. Many people who originally planned to buy pets were on the sidelines, trying to buy these pets that escaped from the love pets from other people’s hands.

The situation in Zhang Zi An store is not optimistic. Except for a few cats such as Abyssinian cat, Ragdoll cat and Sisson cat, there are few other cats and dogs. The cat is better, at least it will dance, but He is not willing to sell at a reduced price to compete with the free cats who have escaped from love.

This situation does not know how long it will last. He is eager to find a new direction of development. It would be great if he could get inspiration from Reina.

“This way…” Reina thought for a moment. “Then I suggest starting from two aspects. One is to sell large pet products that are not easy to buy online, such as fish tanks and aquariums. Second, introduce more novel high-priced pets. Just use your store as a zoo to operate, and use these novelty pets to attract customers. As long as there are too many people, there will always be people who pay for other things.”

This is her experience, and her store is also operating like this.

Zhang Zi An followed her to the second floor.

He has seen the monkey on the first floor, and the second floor has made him almost horrified!

The temperature on the second floor is much higher than the first floor. It is like a subtropical jungle. It is home to a variety of rare pets… In fact, many of them are not regular pets.

The creepy Tarantula alternately moves the furry arthropods, staring at a precious emperor Amazon parrot through the cage.

The ugly-spotted Philippine spotted lizard squats on the trunk of the cognac, turning the indifferent black eyeballs to look at the passing customers.

The thick and long gold lazily spits the letter, recognizing the smell molecules in the air, and tangling them on the rocks.

A pair of large-sized glazed macaws climbed on the branches and screamed at each other.

The raccoon with a pair of dark circles holds the walnuts in his paws and sends them into his mouth.

Looks like a weird scaly with a big head, but the courage is very small, like a fright, the body curled into a ball, with a hard bone scale to protect their soft abdomen.

The ferrets family are together, putting their bodies on each other and sleeping in love.

The claws are sharp like a steel hook, and the sloth is half-sleeping, clinging to the trunk, and peeping through the leaves.

Reina put the small and delicate thumb monkey on her finger. It held her index finger like she hugged the elephant’s leg and looked around curiously.

……

There is also a zoo in Binhai, but the zoo is small and broken. There are a few tigers and monkeys that are infertile, and there is no comparison with the Capital Zoo. It is not as good as the animals in this pet shop. It is an eye-opener.

There are more customers on the second floor than on the first floor. There is even a coffee shop in the corner. Several customers sit in a chair, order a cup of aromatic coffee, and then have a fine snack, or a hot and sour beer. The curry intestines, while eating and drinking, enjoy these strange animals.

There seems to be a family traveler, a man and a woman with a pair of twin sons, when the father’s inexhaustible explanation of the animal species for the child, is a science trip close to nature, and does not even have to leave the city of Berlin.

Seeing this scene, Zhang Zi An understood that the profit of the pet shop came from.

“See it? Although my store does not sell cats and dogs, the profits of other pets are not low at all, plus pet supplies and surrounding sales, enough to maintain business.” Reina proudly said.

“It’s great.” Zhang Zi An sincerely admired, “I never thought that pet shops can do this, it’s refreshing my perception.”

“So, are these helpful to you? My dear Chinese counterpart.” Reina was very happy to hear.

Zhang Zi An sighed. “Unfortunately, I can’t do it like you.”

“Why?” she asked in confusion, and advised: “Is it because of insufficient funds? Don’t worry, Rome is not built in one day. The pets in my store are not collected in one day. Let’s take it slowly. ”

“No, not because of this.” Zhang Zi An shook his head. “The money is also an important reason, but the key is… many rare pets in your shop are not allowed to be sold in China, at least not allowed to be sold. Such as these colorful parrots, and those monkeys.”

This is the problem. China and Germany have different policies on pet sales. If he dares to sell these wild animals listed in the international convention list in China, his store will be reported the next day and then seized by the industrial and commercial department…

He told Reina what he was facing.

“It’s like this… It’s really hard to do…” Reina realized it.

Zhang Zi An reluctantly agreed: “There is no way, the national conditions are different.”

Reina slightly thought, waved: “Jeff, don’t rush to conclusions. I understand your difficulties, but the road to Rome, bypassing state control is not without.”

“Oh? Let’s listen.” Zhang Zi An was suspicious and listened carefully.

Rena raised her hand and pointed to the aquarium in another area on the second floor.

“Jeff, you have to know that the animals listed on the list of international conventions are mostly animals on land, and thousands of new marine life are found every year. These newly discovered marine organisms are too late to be included in various lists. Of course, it is not a protected animal… Do you understand what I mean?”

Friendship recommended “My family’s cat will cultivate the fairy”, written by a group of friends in the V group, you can go and see if you have time
