Chapter 284 Self-sufficiency
Meng Donglai listened to the girl's acting like a baby, and really wanted to have a showdown.

However, considering that the meal had only just begun, she endured it, and waited until Jiao Jiao was full before she spoke:
"Jiao Jiao, I'm ten years older than you, do you know that?"

"I know." Jiao Jiao helped Meng Donglai clean up the dishes, realized what Meng Donglai might say next, and lowered her head while washing the dishes without looking at him.

"I have no house, no car, no serious job, and my income is not enough to support myself, and I have to take care of these cats and dogs with love." Meng Donglai continued.

"I know." But at this point, Jiao Jiao raised her head and bravely looked at Meng Donglai, her eyes revealing blazing love.

Meng Donglai reflected on what he said just now, and there was nothing wrong with it. After hearing this, serious people would think that such a person is definitely not worth entrusting.

"so…"

"So tell me not to waste time with you, right?" Jiao Jiao said this sentence ahead of time, with a smug expression on her face.

Meng Donglai looked at her as if he saw Lin Youyou chasing Xu Huanshan to Shanghai.

However, there is an essential difference between the two.

Xu Huanshan is a successful person, and now he is a loser.Xu Huanshan is a married man, and he is single now.

"It's good that you know." Meng Donglai nodded.

"Of course I know." Jiao Jiao rolled her cute eyes, then turned her head and continued to wash the dishes: "Did you know? In Korean dramas, we have such an age gap, I want to call you uncle."

"No problem, you can call me uncle now, anyway, I always call your father brother." Meng Donglai replied with a serious expression.

"Huh, that's a good idea." Jiao Jiao cast a reproachful glance at Meng Donglai, then washed her hands clean: "Wash yourself, what good things do you think about all day long? Haven't you heard of the three major illusions in life?"

After finishing speaking, he turned around and went downstairs, picked up his bag, and ran out with a patter.

"Yo Yo! Some people think they are passionate!! What a slap in the face!" The jade certificate was almost beating a drum in Meng Donglai's ear to celebrate.

"Are you stupid? Or is the evolution of intelligence going astray? Can't you tell?" Meng Donglai asked back.

"I can see it. However, I still feel that you have been slapped in the face. Hey, we people, we are so happy today..." Finally, they all sang.

"..."

Meng Donglai was speechless.

"Are you aggressive? Let me take her down?"

"Qiu Beast, you are half her age, so you can do anything about it." Jade Document immediately stopped chattering.

"you are wrong."

"What's wrong?"

"I am ten times older than her." Meng Dong said back and forth.

"..., beast!!" Jade Document wailed.

Meng Donglai, who had won a small round, felt much better, and went downstairs to treat the cat and dog who had been diagnosed with the disease before.

With advanced treatment methods and programs far beyond this era, most of these cats and dogs were completely cured on the same day, and the remaining few only needed to continue treatment for a few days.

During the treatment, a team of volunteers brought over two stray dogs. Meng Donglai didn't want to accept them at first, but seeing the sincere eyes of these two young people, he finally accepted them.

In the evening, Meng Donglai, who had finally finished all the treatments, lay on the bed and started sorting out today's video, directing the jade document to edit it.

The fruits of a day's labor were edited into three 5-minute short videos and posted on various platforms.

In the short video, Meng Donglai carried out a thorough cleaning of the "House of Stray Animals".

And there are some videos of Meng Donglai training cats and dogs interspersed in the middle. The cats and dogs in it are very well-behaved and cute, and people can't help but like them.

At the end of the video, Meng Donglai made an announcement.

There are three main points in the announcement.

First: Starting tomorrow, cats and dogs in the home of stray animals will be adopted for free.That is to say, those who have passed the review can choose a dog or a cat from the home for stray animals to adopt. Dogs don't tear down the house, cats don't run around.

Second: For all cats and dogs taken from the home for stray animals, the owner can buy pet food at the purchase price from the home for the homeless, and can receive treatment at cost price here.

Third: All those who adopt cats and dogs, no matter what the reason, do not want to continue to adopt, they can send the cats and dogs back at any time. The Home for Stray Animals also provides door-to-door service to solve the worries of adopters.

According to the content of this announcement, it can be said that as long as you want to raise a cat or dog for fun, you can come to adopt it (qualification review, you must have the financial and time basis to take care of the pet), and when you have enough fun, you can send it back.

Of course, there will be some liability restrictions in the second half of the announcement, such as giving pets the most basic care and not cruelty to animals, etc. Otherwise, the home for stray animals will take back the adopted animals and block the adopters.

As for how the home for stray animals guarantees these restrictions, cats and dogs have chips in their bodies, which is equivalent to 24-hour monitoring, which can be absolutely guaranteed.

There is no profit point in the content of the announcement. From the beginning to the end, it is stated between the lines that this is a purely public welfare project.

But Meng Donglai planned to rely on this project to earn all the funds to support the operation of the shelter.

It is very simple to operate.

The items provided at the purchase price are only basic pet food and treatment, but high-end pet food, pet toys, clothing, etc. will be provided in different grades, and the profits in this will be very high.

Those adopted pets are only provided with basic pet food, and the pets will grow up healthy and well-behaved, but they will not be too excited and active.

But when you provide them with snacks, toys and other additional items, they will become very cute, funny, and help people with some work.

At that time, I believe that as long as the family conditions are good, pet owners will not hesitate to buy some high-profit snacks and toys.

The family conditions can be screened, which ensures that basically every pet can "make money" for the home for stray animals after being adopted, so as to support other animals in the home that have not been adopted.

"Jade ultimatum, calculate it well. It's enough for the profit to be able to maintain the operation of the animal home. I don't need to make money from these animals." Meng Donglai arranged.

"Understood." Yuji replied.

……

Two days later, Meng Donglai finally straightened out the home for stray animals, hired two employees to take care of the animals in it on a daily basis, and released Meng An and him.

After the short video was sent out, the effect was very good. Some people have come to adopt pets. I believe it will not be long before the place can be self-sufficient.

On this day, Meng Donglai was preparing to attend a securities investment promotion meeting with the invitation specially prepared by Yushu.

With the scale of his current investment in the stock market, it would be a bit reluctant to join the "customer expansion" organized by such a securities company, but who knows that Jade Advice has great powers? There is nothing she can't do.

"Boss, you should change your clothes, this one is too ugly." On the way to the meeting place by car, Yuji specially reminded him.

Meng Donglai looked down, the clothes were indeed worn out, although they were also formal suits, but it was obvious that they were cheap suits worth hundreds of dollars.

Meng Donglai asked the online car-hailing driver to drive to Misia.

Walking to the door of the store, the shopping guide inside recognized him immediately after seeing him.

Linda turned her head and went to the inner room, only the cute-looking Zoe came over to greet her bravely.

"Sir, welcome to Misia, do you have a familiar shopping guide?"

If you ask this question, it is estimated that Meng Donglai will answer yes, and she will immediately call for a replacement.

"No." Meng Dong said back and forth.

"Then please let me serve you. What are you going to see? Our new men's clothing..."

At the beginning of the conversation, Meng Donglai followed her to the second floor. The men's clothes here are still the ones he saw before, not "new" at all.

Sweeping the hangers one by one, Meng Donglai quickly selected a dozen pieces of clothing. Zoe followed behind and held the clothes he picked out in her arms, almost burying her slightly short body.

"That's all, you go and get the 190 yards."

"Okay." Zooey went to the warehouse with the clothes in her arms.

Meng Donglai sat down and waited. The supervisor Nancy came over with a cup of coffee and chatted with him. Seeing that he was in a normal mood today, she went downstairs and left again.

After a while, Zooey came over with a bunch of boxes, and none of the other shopping guides stepped forward to help.

Wang Manni is still on sick leave, if she was there, she might help.

Meng Donglai opened these clothes to have a look, and with his eyesight, he could quickly tell whether they were suitable for him or not.

I screened out a few pieces and eliminated them directly, then chose a formal suit and went to the fitting room to change into it.

Come out and look, handsome to a higher level.

"Wrap these up, I want it." Meng Donglai pointed to the other clothes that were not eliminated and the clothes on his body.

"You want them all? Haven't tried these yet." Zooey said in surprise.

"It's all over, let's settle the accounts."

"Ah! Good, good." Zooey didn't expect that a pie would fall on her head today. The commission for men's clothing is 1.5%. These clothes can increase her monthly salary by two or three thousand.

The bill was quickly calculated. Meng Donglai took out his WeChat account and scanned the QR code to pay. Then he put on a new set of clothes and said to Zoe: "Put these clothes in your store first. I'll come and pick them up in the afternoon."

"Of course, can I add your WeChat? You can tell me in advance when you come." Zoe took out her mobile phone and asked cautiously.

"Yes." Meng Donglai scanned her QR code and added: "My surname is Meng."

"Mr. Meng."

After leaving Misia, Meng Donglai hailed a taxi on the side of the road and went directly to the investment fair.

After the shotgun was changed, Meng Donglai was very eye-catching. After entering the promotion meeting on the second floor, he easily attracted the attention of others.

But everyone didn't know him, except for some sales managers, few people took the initiative to say hello.

Meng Donglai didn't care, he didn't come here today for them.

I found a corner and started to eat the food on the table. During this period of time in the animal house, I didn't eat well.

After almost half an hour, he was a little stuffed, and he had already packed the business cards of several beauties in his pocket, before he saw Song Donghu walking up with Wang Manni.

In the past two days, Wang Manni was at home on vacation, and Wang Manni's parents began to play tricks.

At first, I wondered if it was possible for Meng Donglai. After Wang Manni's parents knew that Meng Donglai had no money, they began to introduce other outstanding talents to her.

Seeing her mother falling asleep on the sofa for her own affairs, Wang Manni took the initiative to ask for the contact information of the blind date her mother was going to introduce to her in order to make her happy.

This blind date is Song Donghu, a bright-looking manager of a securities company.

Song Donghu was very satisfied with Wang Manni's appearance, so he took her to the lunch meeting upstairs, which was the promotion meeting Meng Donglai attended.

Meng Donglai watched Song Donghu from the side as if he was suffering from "social angst". He greeted everyone he met warmly, and then took photos with those big shots.

"Actually, this person is quite powerful, able to memorize so many people's information." Meng Donglai said to Yushu.

"Yeah, making money is never easy." Yuji agreed.

It seems a bit ironic that two people who can earn hundreds of thousands or millions in minutes lament that making money is not easy.

After a while, Wang Manni took advantage of Song Donghu to hand out business cards everywhere, and found a seat to sit down and be lazy.

Looking through the circle of friends boredly, he found that the photos he took for Song Donghu just now had been posted to the circle of friends to show off. He immediately realized that Song Donghu was not as good as he introduced himself.

I also want to understand why he put the meeting place downstairs and didn't tell himself that he would attend the lunch meeting before coming.

It turned out that he had his own plan in mind. If Wang Manni met his requirements, he would bring her up as a face-to-face, and if he didn't, he would dismiss it with a few words.

Recalling the words he asked himself before: "Is it going to be blocked on the road?" "The things in your store are quite expensive." These words actually contained some temptations and calculations.

After thinking about this, Wang Manni felt uncomfortable staying here.

"Wang Manni!" Just as she was looking down and wondering whether to leave first, a greeting suddenly came from the side. Wang Manni looked up and saw that it was Meng Donglai who had saved her before.

"Hey, why are you here?" Wang Manni felt very surprised. She looked at Meng Donglai carefully and found that he was wearing Misiya's clothes. The value of this suit easily exceeded [-] from the inside to the outside, which was more than what Song Donghu boasted about before. Private orders are expensive.

"I'm here to eat, how about you? Why come here if you can't rest at home?" Meng Donglai sat opposite her and asked.

"I..." Wang Manni glanced embarrassedly at Song Donghu who was still distributing business cards in the distance, and Meng Donglai followed her gaze.

"On a blind date?"

"How do you know?" Wang Manni didn't expect Meng Donglai's eyes to be so vicious.

"I guess your clothes are not suitable for today's occasion." Meng Donglai replied with a smile, taking a glass of champagne and a glass of orange juice from the waiter's plate next to him.

Passing the orange juice to Wang Manni, she held the champagne.

"I guess you are still taking anti-inflammatory drugs, so stop drinking, cheers."

"Thank you." Wang Manni was a little moved. Before Song Donghu took him to eat, he just introduced himself blindly, eating quickly, without considering Wang Manni's feelings at all, and did not ask about her situation.

It's like this at the beginning of the blind date. If you really want to be with him, it's strange that life will be easier.

"I've seen it since you came in. You haven't eaten a few bites. You just took pictures for others. Do you want to eat more, or should we go out to eat?" Meng Donglai asked.

"Go out and eat, I'm so uncomfortable here." Wang Manni replied.

"Okay, this is not in the same circle. It will be hard to be strong, and I don't like this kind of dinner party where the price is clearly marked." Meng Donglai got up and helped Wang Manni get her bag, then walked to her side and bent over. Raising an arm: "Let's go, elegant lady."

Wang Manni gave him a small look, then reached out to take her bag and put one arm on it, and the other on Meng Donglai's arm, and the two left the lunch together like this.

"I'll take you to eat delicious food, which is more suitable for your current body."

"What's delicious?"

"You'll know when it arrives."
