At that moment, Lin Gantang was talking to Qian Ruoxi.
“I think that shop is trying to imitate us,” Qian Ruoxi said irately. “He copied everything we have in our shop. He even copied the idea of adoption!”
On this street, a hundred meters from the Cat Bookstore, a new cat cafe and bookstore had opened. It copied the bookstore’s business model and Qian Ruoxi almost exploded with rage when she saw it.
“Originally, the online fans wanted to come to our side. Many of them passed by his place and thought that we were there. There were quite a number of fans who came to me and said that they got the place wrong. That shop is really shameless,” said Qian Ruoxi angrily.
“There are many cat cafe-themed bookstores and coffee shops nowadays. Even if he didn’t open one, someone else will. Don’t be angry. You’re going to turn into a pufferfish.” Lin Gantang was eating candy and gave her one.
Qian Ruoxi felt that the boss was too calm. She could still eat candy at this time. “I think he’s trying to take away our customer flow on purpose,” she said.
Qian Ruoxi said, “Many customers like to go to their bookstore because they can interact more with the cats. They can feed the cats and play with them.”
This was unlike them. The Cat Bookstore did not allow cats to be fed as they wished. They were afraid that the cats would eat too much and their stomachs would be overwhelmed. Moreover, they could not force the cats to open for business. The cats had really become the masters. When they were happy, they would tease the guests. When unhappy, they would sleep soundly and ignore everyone.
“They have to be charged, right? I mean, if their customers feed the cats,” Lin Gantang asked.
“Yes, I asked Xiao Yang to secretly go and take a look. Moreover, we open too late during the day. Most of the customers go there at noon. Boss,” Qian Ruoxi asked, “should we bring forward the opening hours? I think our shop is the only one on this street that opens so late.”
“No. The cats in the shop need enough rest time. Otherwise, their health will be affected. Moreover, our main business is books, not cats.”
She tapped on Qian Ruoxi’s forehead and teased her. “You get the same money, but you work late and get off early. How many people are envious? Aren’t you satisfied?”
Who wouldn’t like it? However, Qian Ruoxi had been the manager of the Cat Bookstore for a long time. She felt responsible. “I’m just worried about the business.”
“Don’t worry. We’ll continue to do what we have to do. We won’t lose to anyone,” Lin Gantangsaid.
Lin Gantang was not afraid of competition, nor was she worried about pressure from the other party. She did not agree with the other party’s method of using cats to gain favor, exploiting them, and she would not deliberately imitate them.
After Lin Gantang finished chatting with Qian Ruoxi, she turned around and saw Gu Zhichuan walking in with the cat cage.
Her gaze fell on the cat cage. It was a Siamese cat.
Gu Zhichuan saw that she was looking in his direction and was slightly happy. He came over and put down the cat cage. “Didn’t you say that we could send stray cats here? This little fellow is homeless. Can you help it?”
Although the cat’s body had been cleaned, its coarse and lusterless fur and abnormally thin figure showed that it had not been doing well.
Gu Zhichuan saw that Lin Gantang was sizing it up. He was afraid that she would not want it. He said, “I’ve asked someone to take him for a check-up. It doesn’t have any other diseases. It’s just malnourished. Don’t worry.”
“I’m not worried about that.” Lin Gantang squatted down and stretched out her hand to the cat. The cat looked at it and sniffed. Lin Gantang touched it and lifted the collar around its neck. She couldn’t find its name or other information. “It must have gone missing. I wonder if we can find its original
owner.
