start with a pet store

Chapter 678 Sun Tzu’s Art of War

Xiao Sun's happy expression was written on his face: "Hehe..." He giggled and said, "Brother Lu, who was that person just now? It's the one named Ouyang..."

"Only Ouyang Luo, who else? What's wrong?" Seeing Xiao Sun's expression, Lu Jingxing felt that this matter was not a big deal.

"Do you know how much he paid?" Xiao Sun asked deliberately and mysteriously.

"Five thousand? Ten thousand?" Lu Jingxing's guess was quite bold. People who usually bring stray cats would buy a few bags of cat food at most, and paying them a monthly fee is already very polite.

Xiao Sun stretched out a finger and shook his head: "no, no, no..."

"More than ten thousand?" Lu Jingxing couldn't believe it now.

I saw Xiao Sun stretching out three fingers.

"How much? Thirty thousand?" This shocked Lu Jingxing. This man must be too rich.

Xiao Liu, who was passing by, came over and said, "What's thirty thousand?"

Xiao Sun turned back and glanced at him: "Hey, a rich man just came and gave 30,000 yuan in one breath. It's not a top-up, it's a donation..."

The most shocked person at this time was undoubtedly Xiao Liu. His eyes widened. Don’t blame me for not having seen the world. I have never seen such a world.

"No, why, why did he donate so much at once..." After hearing this, Xiao Liu looked at Lu Jingxing, who was also a little confused.

Lu Jingxing spread his hands, and he had already accepted this fact: "The old man has more than twenty cats, and he needs me to pick them up. He may think that this is a very troublesome thing for him, and a problem that can be solved with money is too much for him. It doesn’t matter to him.”

Now Xiao Sun and Xiao Liu suddenly realized it at the same time, so it made sense.

However, the two of them still felt that this matter was bullshit.

Thirty thousand is really not a small amount of money.

Lu Jingxing sat down calmly: "Xiao Liu, arrange two hours in the afternoon to come out with me and go to the old man's house to catch the cat. We will see which store has more space and call us together. Ah, that Xiao Liu? I can’t go, I’m leaving, you have to stay in the store, Xiaosun, you can make arrangements and ask the two of them to come with me in the afternoon..."

He arranged.

Xiao Sun immediately agreed and went to make arrangements immediately.

Xiao Liu came to him specifically: "Master, I think I'm okay with my sterilized kittens. I've had several surgeries in the past few days, and they're all okay..."

Lu Jingxing looked at him with a smile: "Not bad, are you here to ask for praise?"

Xiao Liu rubbed the back of his head and smiled: "Master, please praise me..."

"That's right, keep up the good work. If you do a good job, you will get a bonus for the surgery. My verbal praise is worthless, and the real money is the most convincing, right, haha..." Lu Jingxing smiled heartily.

Xiao Liu also laughed. He likes his current job so much that others call him "Dr. Liu", which he never dared to think about before.

"However, you still have to be careful and careful. The amount of anesthesia must be controlled well, and pre-operative preparations must be made. Any operation cannot be left to chance, you know?" Lu Jingxing said seriously after finishing his joke. said to him.

"Yeah, I understand, master..." Xiao Liu stood up and gave Lu Jingxing a naughty team salute, which made Lu Jingxing unable to hold back and started laughing.

"Then, master, I'll leave first..." Seeing that Lu Jingxing had been busy, Xiao Liu closed the door thoughtfully.

After lunch, Lu Jingxing called Ouyang and told him that he could go there this afternoon.

Ouyang was not surprised at all: "Okay, I have already made an agreement with my family. You can go directly there. Then, I don't need to take care of the one I raise at home. I will go back and check on it every day. My mother will be discharged from the hospital in a few days." She can go home..."

"No problem. Once settled, I'll go see the old man. Send me the address..."

"Don't be so polite, I can see that you are quite busy..." Mr. Ouyang said considerately.

"It's okay. I'll tell the old man face to face that I took over these cats so that he can recover in peace..." Lu Jingxing said.

"That's it, that's fine. I'll send it to you later. Thank you, thank you..." Ouyang heard that Lu Jingxing wanted to comfort the old man, so he stopped insisting and quickly sent the address.

Lu Jingxing was also about to say thank you for his donation this morning. After thinking about it, he decided not to say it. There are some things that you just need to know. People like Ouyang sometimes don’t necessarily want you to talk about money every day. They prefer to do something practical. Bar.

Xiao Sun brought in the two employees he had arranged for. One was a handyman in the backyard and the other was in the shower room. The weather was getting colder for these two people. Today was not the weekend and there were not many showers. One of them took out two Three hours is no problem.

Seeing the two of them, Lu Jingxing nodded: "Bring a few more cages and a few bags. Oh, there are quite a few bags on the cart. Okay, let's go..."

With that said, he took the two of them out.

He had been here several times, so he was familiar with the place, and he soon arrived at the door of the old man's house.

Lu Jingxing felt a little sad when he thought about the scene when the old man came to pick him up from a long distance the last time he came. His desire to finish his work and go see the old man became even stronger.

Hearing the sound of the car, the person in charge of guarding came out. After seeing a few people, he hesitated for a moment and walked straight towards Lu Jingxing: "Doctor Lu, right? The superiors have told us..."

Lu Jingxing nodded when he heard this: "Yes, I'm here to pick up those cats in the backyard..."

"Okay, you come with me..." The man was very polite, because Ouyang had told him that he must do this properly.

The two employees were very discerning in getting the cage and catching net bag from the trunk.

It is said to be two hours, but there are twenty or thirty cats. In fact, this is really not a small task. Several people followed the guard into the main house and then walked to the backyard.

Without the owner at home, Lu Jingxing did not stay for a moment, and the two employees followed him without looking away.

The weather today is quite good. Although there is no big sun, it is also cloudless. However, without the sun, it will be a bit cold. Most of the cats are in the wooden shed that the old man built for them. A few of them gather together. In a nest.

This is good for Lu Jingxing and the others.

When Lu Jingxing set out, he confirmed that the two people who came with him were vaccinated, and they also had gloves ready before setting off.

After entering the courtyard, several people brought their tools and arrested those around them.

Because the cats were relatively concentrated, the early capture work seemed to be very smooth.

In less than an hour, seventeen or eighteen were caught.

If everything is done at this speed, it won't be a problem within two hours.

But there is no such thing as such a good thing.

There are always some little guys who are ghostly and quiet.

The little guy who escaped into the sewer last time is now more than twice as big as the last time he was caught for sterilization, but his cleverness has not diminished at all.

It watched its partners being caught one by one, and when the big guys weren't paying attention, it quietly slipped into the passage behind the small house.

It buried its head deeply.

When Lu Jingxing was catching another cat, he happened to catch a glimpse of this guy.

Looking at its cautious appearance, Lu Jingxing secretly smiled. He didn't want to uncover it. Lu Jingxing noticed that the position where it burrowed in was not a very good hiding place. At least he thought he could catch it. of.

When Lu Jingxing saw it go in, he glanced outside with his eyes, and smiled happily: "You seem to be quite smart, why are you just growing up and not thinking about it? Haha..."

He put the one he just caught in the cage first.

He walked towards the hiding one again.

The little guy looked out of the hole and saw Lu Jingxing walking towards it. It gasped at first, but when it saw Lu Jingxing suddenly turned back to catch another one, it immediately shrank its neck.

I kept muttering in my heart: "You can't see me, you can't see me..."

Lu Jingxing was just teasing it, so he suddenly changed his goal.

As the saying goes, once you make great progress, you will be exhausted again and again.

Lu Jingxing repeated his old trick again and feinted a shot in front of the cave. The little guy immediately arched his back and growled in his throat.

The next second, Lu Jingxing turned around and disappeared from the entrance of the cave. The little guy saw that Lu Jingxing was flipping back and forth several times without catching it, so he relaxed his vigilance.

At this time, a big hand reached into the hole from outside, grabbed his neck and pulled him outside.

Before it could react, it left the "safe" hole.

Okay, okay, you and your buddy are playing tricks on each other, right? Under its angry punches and kicks, Lu Jingxing threw it into the air box.

"Sun Tzu's Art of War is still useful...haha" Lu Jingxing sighed to himself: "It is indeed the experience of our ancestors..."

As time goes by, those cats have almost entered the cage, but there are indeed a lot of cats. The sound of meowing gives Lu Jingxing a headache. I really don’t know how the old man got here. There are also new ones who have not been neutered. The cat's meowing was particularly miserable.

When there were no more obvious cats meowing in the yard, everyone thought it was time to finish catching them, but Lu Jingxing was worried and called Ouyang.

"We think we've caught them all. There are so many cats meowing now, why don't we let the old man hear it?" Lu Jingxing thought this might be a way.

Ouyang thought this was feasible and immediately put the phone to the old man's ear.

"Hey, old man, can you hear me?" Lu Jingxing shouted loudly.

The old man didn't speak, he just hummed in a daze.

Lu Jingxing placed his cell phone next to the cat cage, and several cat meows flowed down the phone into the old man's ears.

"Hmm?" The old man suddenly became energetic, and Ouyang's slightly trembling voice came from the side: "Dad, Dad, you finally woke up."

It seemed that those cats had a special place in his heart. Lu Jingxing couldn't help but sigh. He didn't expect this method to work.

"Old man, we have caught all these cats for you. Do you remember how many there are in total?" He felt that this method would arouse the old man's interest.

"Thirty-two..." The old man's weak voice contained infinite determination.
