The days of being a cat in Japan

On the morning of the 19th, Mrs. Fujimoto drove out with Dasheng.

Today is the first day of the Christmas carnival season 'Super Cat' at Ono Department Store to give away lucky bags. Although the mall doesn't leave until [-]:[-] in the morning, guests who have performances and missions need to arrive earlier.

In order to cooperate with the work of the raccoon cat at home, Mrs. Fujimoto, who was leaving early in the morning, did not have time to prepare a too complicated breakfast this morning. Bread and milk appeared on the dining table of the Fujimoto family this morning.

At eight o'clock, Mrs. Fujimoto drove the raccoon cat at home to the department store on time. The employees of the planning department came earlier than them, and Ms. Yoshiko, Mr. Ohno's assistant, had already put the cat on All the work clothes are ready, just waiting for the guests to come.

Holding Xu Jie's food basin, sand basin, mineral water and his favorite fresh shrimp flavored cat food, Mrs. Fujimoto, who is stepping on two-inch high heels, really walked behind Xu Jie like the cat assistant.

Ms. Yoshiko, Mr. Ono's assistant, was specially arranged to receive the guests. When she saw Xu Jie and Mrs. Rie walking behind, she walked over very actively and said, "Good morning, Mrs. Fujimoto. These things in your hand Is it needed by Dasheng teacher? Then leave it to me, the rest place specially prepared for Dasheng teacher has been arranged, just put it there. "

After hearing this, Mrs. Fujimoto handed over the cat food and the empty food bowl to the assistant lady, and she still took the heavier sand basin and mineral water by herself.

Looking at the lady who came up warmly, Mrs. Fujimoto asked as she walked: "You are the Miss Yoshiko who Mr. Ohno said on the phone, who is taking care of Dasheng these days? That's great, we My Great Sage, I am grateful to you for taking care of me during this time, so I can feel much more at ease when I leave later."

Miss Yoshiko, who put the cat food in the bowl and held it together, couldn't help but said in surprise: "Mrs. Fujimoto, are you going to leave later? Doesn't that mean that Teacher Dasheng left a cat here?"

Mrs. Li Hui nodded and said: "There is no way. There are too many customers at the pet grooming salon. They all came to make reservations a few days ago. How can you shirk? As for the great sage, don't worry. Well, the two black cats of the Dasheng family will also come here to take care of it after they go out to inspect it."

Assistant Miss Fangzi asked excitedly after hearing the words: "Madam, are the two black cats you mentioned, Mr. Dahei and their adopted son Xiaohei?"

After seeing Mrs. Lihui nodding, the lady immediately said with a smile on her face: "This is really great. I never thought that not only can I take care of Dasheng teacher, but now I can also see Dahei and Xiaohei. I am so lucky." gone."

Mrs. Fujimoto smiled and said: "Don't worry, Xiao Hei is still a little bit worse, Da Hei is very close to Da Sheng, you will definitely see it. Do you know that when the time comes to the security guard, you have to make an agreement in advance, If they won't let the cat in, you'll be happy for nothing."

Miss Yoshiko, who was still immersed in the emotion of seeing her idol soon, replied immediately after hearing the words: "It's no problem, the manager has explained to the security side a few days ago that as long as cats come in during the carnival, They are all allowed and absolutely not blocked.”

"Hahaha, your manager's determination is really great." Mrs. Li Hui said upon hearing this.

After talking and laughing, they came to the office of the planning department.

All the people here are very busy today, and most of them are contacting various departments on the phone to make a final confirmation to ensure the smooth progress of the event.

The place that Miss Yoshiko mentioned was specially used for resting cats was in the planning office, and it was a small corner covered with soft blankets.

It can be seen that this place should have been the place where flowers and plants were placed not long ago, because Xu Jie's sensitive cat nose could smell the soil on the ground through the blanket.

Even the flowers and plants that were originally placed here have not been moved too far. They are placed on the edge of the soft blanket together with the flower pots, and the green is used to isolate a relatively private space for the cat.

Li Huamao is very satisfied with the arrangement of the planning department. Compared with the noisy environment where he could only rest in the background last time, this time the 'lounge' looks much more reliable.

Mrs. Fujimoto, who came over with her things, was also very satisfied with this. After arranging some private cat belongings of the cats at home, she simply said a few words to Ms. Yoshiko, and left in a hurry.

After sending Mrs. Fujimoto away, the assistant, Ms. Yoshiko, began to help Xu Jie put on the performance costume. While putting on this lady, she said to Xu Jie: "Mr. Yes. Teacher, you have to wear this suit and run around every floor early, distributing the lucky bags in your pockets to customers."

Speaking of which, Ms. Fangzi showed Xu Jie the large pockets reserved for blessing bags on this suit.

The big S in the middle of the blue 'Super Cat' suit is a big pocket, and it can fit seven or eight lucky bags without any problem.

Inside the big red cloak, there are rows of small pockets on both sides, and each pocket can hold at least two lucky bags.

After explaining the locations of these pockets to the cat, Ms. Fangzi raised her hand and looked at her watch and said, "It's already 08:30, and I'll go to the finance side to collect today's lucky bag for you. This time in our mall A total of 1110 lucky bags have been prepared, and we can get out 144 or 145 every day. We must ensure that these 140 lucky bags are distributed every hour during the 13 hours of operation, so teacher, you can send them out Be sure to remember the amount, and don’t give it away.”

The cihuamao said that it remembered, and after Miss Fangzi left, it began to count with its paws.

Meow, it is open for 13 hours a day, and there are more than 140 lucky bags to be distributed, so there are only eleven or twelve lucky bags per hour.

Eleven or twelve lucky bags are given out in an hour. This rhythm must be well controlled. The cat must combine work and rest so that it will not be tired by more than ten hours of work every day.

Just when it was thinking this way, Miss Yoshiko who went to the finance side to get the lucky bag came back.

The outer packaging of the lucky bag this time is really similar to the red envelope, except that instead of the big red double happiness characters printed on it, it is printed with the slogan of Ono Shopping Mall.

Miss Fangzi carefully took out a few lucky bags, stuffed them into the pockets of the raccoon cat one by one, and said, "The store will open for business soon, and you have to run, Teacher Dasheng."

Believe it or not, the civet cat wearing a 'Super Cat' tights wandered around every corner of the shopping mall, followed by the security personnel of the shopping mall, and an assistant lady was always on guard.

Some of the customers who came to the mall knew about this event from the mall's publicity, and those who didn't know in advance also knew the content of this Christmas carnival season from the loud broadcast of the mall's loudspeaker.

So that civet cat in a silly-looking costume became the most popular and sought-after creature in the entire shopping mall.

In order to get good luck, as long as the raccoon cat appears, people will follow it, and everyone tries to get good luck from it.

In order to ensure safety and no accidents, the lady in charge of the broadcast kept saying to everyone in a sweet voice: "Dear customers, please pay attention, the activity of Super Cat to send good luck has started. Our activity is completely open and fair. The purpose is based on the cat's preferences. So please don't chase our guests too much, if you make the cat unhappy, it will not bring you good luck."

The broadcast lady's reminder seemed to have played a certain role. After that, wherever Xu Jie went, although there were still a lot of customers around him asking for lucky bags, there were a lot fewer guys who wouldn't leave if they didn't give them.

Xu Jie, who was being chased, knew his mission very well. He was invited here to attract popularity to the mall and drive consumption, so the lucky bag inside the clothes must not be given away casually.

Most of these lucky bags must be given to potential customers who are likely to spend in the mall, so that the shopping atmosphere of the carnival can be passive.

The cihuamao, who is well versed in this way, flexibly rotated his almond eyes and carefully looked at the people around him.

The targets it chooses can be roughly divided into three categories, one is young men and women, it is best to come in pairs, such couples who are in love have a strong desire to consume.

The second type is married housewives, preferably with children. As the group responsible for purchasing in the family, housewives have very strong purchasing power.

The third type is some elderly grandpas and aunts. Although they may not have a strong desire to shop, they will be very interested in some specific products, so they should also be paid attention to.

As for those middle-aged men or men who have already married at first glance, you don’t need to care too much about them, because if they are not elites, their pocket money from their wives should not exceed 1 yuan a week.

Cats want to use this kind of pocket money, they will not buy other things in the mall except cigarettes.

The cihuamao who had selected the target followed this method, and the effect was surprisingly good. Most of the customers who got the lucky bag were very happy. Although the amount inside was not very large, who wouldn't like a surprise.

As long as people are happy, they are naturally generous, so since the Super Cat event, the sales of the shopping mall have been soaring in a straight line.

Seeing the customers queuing up at the checkout counter with shopping bags, Lihuamao expressed his satisfaction.

The cihuamao who puts so much thought into it is not just for the better completion of the work, because during the carnival shopping festival these few days, the Daye Shopping Center has a [-]% discount on everything except gold and silver jewelry.

When walking around, Xu Jie had already checked the price tag in advance, and found that there was a real discount here, and he definitely did not fool around.

Since the mall spends a lot of money and wants to make small profits but sell quickly, and the real price reduction can bring benefits to the customers who come to shop, Xu Jie can also work better. This kind of thing that is beneficial to all three parties, why not Why not?

The cihuamao, who had already distributed a wave of blessing bags, was lying on the big sofa in the mall at this moment, thinking that when the little fat man would come to see it, the cat had prepared a gift for him.
