Chapter 1 Received a Panda
He hurriedly closed the main door and pulled down the curtains, then quickly ran back to the table to pick up his phone, found the future pet store, and said, "Hello, what do you mean by sending me a panda?"
Urban life is indeed lonely, not only are girls like Qiao Wenqi coming one after another to inquire, but even the boys in the class are asking if there are any dogs or similar companions available to join them for night runs
On the right side is the designated area for placing pets, which is currently empty and requires him to contact the vendors to deliver cats, dogs, and so on; on the left side, there are two sofas arranged for guests to rest and conduct business; the staircase is located against the wall on the right side, and the space behind the staircase has not been wasted, as he has partitioned it into a small room for storing miscellaneous items
"I have noted down the address, so rest assured, you will receive it in no more than half an hour," the other party sent a smiling emoji and said with utmost sincerity
Hehe, it seems that this pet store was a good choice, even Qiao Wenqi, who hasn't spoken to herself much since graduation, took the initiative to ask. Shen Yibin felt a surge of joy in his heart and quickly replied, "It's a secret for now; you'll find out when you come. I guarantee it will be an unexpected surprise."
After inspecting the store again and finding no oversights, Shen Yibin hummed a tune as he ascended to the second floor. He had forgotten to take his phone when he went downstairs, so he was going up to have them ship the goods. The official opening could take place tomorrow.
Abin, you actually opened a pet store? I will definitely come to take a look tomorrow. Could you tell me in advance what fun pets you have? The effect of the advertisement is quite good; as soon as it was sent out, my college classmate Qiao Wenqi messaged me.
Yes, I have already arrived at your doorstep. I still have other stores to deliver to, so I will leave the items at your door. After saying this, the other party impatiently hung up the phone
The box was tightly sealed, with small holes left for the pet to breathe, making it impossible to see what was inside. After hesitating for a moment, Shen Yibin decided to drag the box back first. "Is this how pets are transported? It's sealed so tightly, doesn't the dark pet inside feel scared?" While mumbling to himself, he squatted down to pull the box inside. "What on earth is in here? Why is it so heavy?"
It seems that the delivery has arrived? Looking at the time, it has just been half an hour, so I decisively pressed the answer button, "Hello, is this the delivery of the pet?"
After exerting considerable effort to drag the box into the store, Shen Yabin wiped the sweat from his brow and retrieved a tool from the counter to open the box. When he finally saw the pet inside, he was instantly taken aback.
"Then I will wait in the store, call me when you arrive." After saying this, Shen Yibin hurried downstairs with his phone, made himself a cup of tea, and sat by the table chatting with friends while leisurely waiting. He also took a few photos of the small shop and posted them in his WeChat Moments as a preliminary advertisement, "The small shop opens tomorrow, adorable pets will be arriving soon, welcome to support us"
This is the address, No. 221, Baiyun Street, Yunchong City. After Shen Yibin finished speaking, he directly sent the address and his mobile number via WeChat, fearing that the other party might get it wrong. "I am opening for business tomorrow, so please do not delay."
If the quality of the pets delivered this time is good, perhaps we can open for business tomorrow, Shen Yibin couldn't help but daydream. At that moment, his phone rang, and the caller ID displayed a completely unfamiliar number
Hello! Hello! How can you deliver like this? I haven't even checked yet and you've already left. What if the pet you delivered has an injury or illness? Who am I supposed to talk to then? Shen Yibin was immediately anxious and hurriedly opened the shop door, but the delivery person was already nowhere to be seen, leaving a large white box blocking the entrance.
He picked up his phone from the bed, and there was a series of messages on WeChat, most of which were congratulatory messages from classmates and friends. Shen Yibin replied one by one and invited them to come and join the festivities tomorrow. Only after finishing these tasks did he finally have time to contact the suppliers
Finally, everything is tidied up. Shen Yibin looked at the clean and orderly hall with great joy. After more than a month of hard work, the renovation was finally completed. Now, all that is left is to notify the suppliers to deliver the pets to his pet store, and it can smoothly open for business.
Round and plump, fluffy and soft, with patches of black and white on its body, it looks simply adorable. I thought it was something else, but it turns out to be a panda, wow! A panda! When Shen Yibin finally saw it clearly, he nearly went crazy.
"Future Pet Store? It seems that the name has indeed been changed, no wonder I couldn't find you just now." In Shen Yibin's WeChat contacts, apart from that supplier, there was no one else in the pet business. Now, there was no need to make a phone call; he directly opened the chat box and typed, "My store has been renovated, and those items we discussed last time can be sent over now."
He could hardly believe that the other party had actually sent him a panda! It is important to note that pandas are a protected species in the country. I just wanted to open a pet shop, but I never intended to end up in jail!
The pressure of life is increasingly mounting, and it is inevitable to feel lonely in the city; thus, keeping a pet has become one of the best choices for them to alleviate loneliness and adjust their mood. The street where Shen Yibin is located is one of the more prosperous commercial streets in Yunchong City. Judging by the customers coming in and out of the shops on both sides, their businesses are quite good. Therefore, Shen Yibin is very optimistic about his prospects for wealth. Based on my understanding of the pet market, it cannot be worse than theirs, right?
"Please provide an address, and I will deliver it to you immediately." The other party responded quite quickly
Shen Yibin has loved animals since childhood, often taking his dog out for walks. After graduating from university, he worked for two years, saved some money, and decided to open his own pet shop. After much effort, he finally found the current storefront; it consists of two floors and over 200 square meters. The first floor is the shop area, approximately over 100 square meters, which he has tidied up neatly. The area facing the entrance is where he usually stays, featuring a simple reception desk with a computer on it, allowing him to browse the web or play games to pass the time when he has nothing to do.
Hmm, why can't I find him in my WeChat friend list? Could it be that he changed his name? Shen Yibin searched from beginning to end but couldn't find that guy. Just as he was about to open his contacts to call and inquire, he noticed that someone had updated their Moments. He instinctively clicked in and saw that someone had posted two adorable little kittens, looking exceptionally cute, with a caption that mentioned something like "Our store has just received two new kittens, message the store if you're interested."
As for the upstairs, it serves as his resting place, featuring a layout of two bedrooms and one living room, complete with a kitchen, bathroom, and balcony, which saves him the trouble of renting another apartment
