After the Earthquake of Rebirth

Chapter 3 The Pet Market

"Well, I must... Thank you, Brother Zhang... Don't worry, Brother Zhang...Okay, I will definitely contact Brother Zhang directly when I come back...Okay, that's it, goodbye."

Putting down the phone, Ning Qiyan let out a breath.

Seeing that the world will be in chaos soon, Ning Qiyan doesn't want to waste time on work.He didn't want to experience being crushed under the rubble of the company building again.So seeing that the time was almost up, I called my boss to resign.

The expected retention, after all, it has been more than two years since he started working, has made him famous in the industry.It's not that his technique is much better than others, but the customer's evaluation is the best.Ning Qiyan smiled lightly, no matter what the job is, communication skills are much more important than the job itself.

But unexpectedly, for his resignation, the company was willing to let him stay with pay.It seems that the past two years of catering to him without a trace has made the leaders attach great importance to him.But Ning Qiyan didn't agree, and only said that he would definitely contact the company when he planned to work after rest.

After all, people's hearts are unpredictable. If they agree to stay on with pay and avoid the casualties of the earthquake, then the families of those colleagues who died will inevitably live well with envy and resentment.In such an environment of despair and collapse, there is no reason for people's hearts.

Without thinking about it, Ning Qiyan took his wallet and went downstairs to the garage.

It will be New Year's Eve in ten days.In the past, Ning Qiyan didn't care. It should be said that very few orphans would like to celebrate the New Year.On the days when others are happy and reunited with their families, children without a home will always be extremely lonely.Even though the orphanage held various activities, it couldn't cover up the loneliness.And after leaving the orphanage, he was separated from Du Cheng for nine years. It was meaningless to celebrate the New Year alone. As time passed, Ning Qiyan had no awareness of celebrating the New Year.

But this time is different.Du Cheng is coming back, and the two have their own home.It's time to have a good year.In addition, after the earthquake, it will take a long time for the social order to be rebuilt to a stable and prosperous life. If we want to have a lively and prosperous Spring Festival, we don't know how many years we have to wait.

Park your car and follow the flow of people into the mall.Looking at the fiery decorations and the lively crowd, Ning Qiyan closed his eyes, not thinking about the tragedy after the earthquake.

Pulling a cart, Ning Qiyan walked towards the dried fruit section in the supermarket.

When I left the supermarket, there were four bags full of dried fruit snacks.Although many people looked at him in surprise, they didn't think much about it. They just couldn't help guessing how many people there were in this handsome young man's family, and he actually bought so many things.

After getting in the car, Ning Qiyan put the things in the space.Go to the next supermarket.

In order not to attract people's attention, although Ning Qiyan bought a lot of things at once, they were within the acceptable range.But in six supermarkets in a row, the things he bought were enough for him and Du Cheng to live through ten years in terms of Chinese New Year alone.

What Ning Qiyan bought this time were all snacks with a long shelf life.Just in time for the Chinese New Year, there are many kinds in the supermarket, so prepare more.As for other food supplies, Ning Qiyan planned to wait until before the earthquake to prepare them, so that the shelf life could be delayed.

After coming down from six supermarkets in a row, Rao is a healthy man, but also a little tired.After all, Ning Qiyan has not experienced the intensive physical work after the earthquake.

The dazzling array of restaurants on both sides of the road attracted Ning Qiyan's attention, and he chose a Shanghainese restaurant. Although he had always preferred light tastes, but for more than three years with only salt and no sugar, he only thought of the sweet and greasy taste. The tempting taste can't stop the secretion of saliva.Ning Qiyan half-closed his eyes when he ordered a eight-treasure duck and braised pork, plus stir-fried bamboo shoots with vegetables, and a bowl of rice.

After finishing his late lunch, Ning Qiyan drove back to the market near his home.Although it is already afternoon, but because there are many people preparing for the new year, the market has a large volume of goods and there are plenty of things.

After roughly calculating the storage space in the refrigerator in his mind, Ning Qiyan bought two chickens, two ducks, a rib and other miscellaneous meats, enough to fill up the half-empty refrigerator.

After visiting the market, Ning Qiyan didn't go home directly, but drove to the pet market in the city instead.He intends to test whether the space can raise livestock, otherwise no matter how much meat he prepares in advance, there will always be a day when he will finish eating it.

The pet market is next to an old community. After parking the car, Ning Qiyan entered through the main entrance.

Because the weather is cold, the doors and windows are closed, and the air is not circulating, the smell in the market is really bad.Ning Qiyan paused, then continued walking without changing his expression.

After the earthquake, because it was a global disaster and the magnetic field was disturbed, the rescue was very slow.It was not until the fifth day after the earthquake that the garrison hundreds of kilometers away arrived.Coupled with the rescue personnel organized by D City itself, the rescue speed was accelerated.But the delay was too long, and many people survived under the rubble until rescue arrived. Coupled with the people who died directly when the earthquake happened, D City with a population of nearly 600 million finally survived only 300 million.And climate change, less than a month, the temperature soared 30 degrees.The high temperature and the corpses under the ruins kept the entire D City shrouded in a foul-smelling environment.Compared with the smell deep in memory, the smell of the pet market is really nothing.

After walking for a while, Ning Qiyan found a store that specializes in selling pet rabbits.

Not picking the breed, Ning Qiyan pointed to the two fattest rabbits, asked if they were indeed a male and a female, and asked the boss to calculate the price together with the cage.

"Are you going to send your girlfriend?" the fat boss asked with a smile.

Ning Qiyan smiled and said nothing.

The fat boss is familiar, "Come here to buy rabbits, either for children or to please girls. Generally, girls like cute little animals."

Ning Qiyan nodded, thinking of Du Cheng for some reason, after paying the money, he was about to leave with the rabbit cage in his hand, when he suddenly paused: "If a person who doesn't like to talk, is it suitable for pets?"

The fat boss didn't intend to perfunctory Ning Qiyan, after thinking about it, he asked, "How's your personality?"

"It's pretty stable, but she doesn't like to talk."

"With a stable personality, he must have a sense of responsibility. It is very suitable for raising a pet." The fat boss nodded, "You can raise a lively dog."

Ning Qiyan thoughtfully, nodded, and thanked the fat boss.After leaving the store, he was not in a hurry to go back, but continued to walk in.

After the earthquake, all recreational activities were gone.When he and Du Cheng spent winter and summer in the mountains, apart from receiving relief food and looking for food, the rest of the time they stared blankly and counted the days dryly.It's better to raise a dog, and you can adjust your life.Anyway, if you can prepare supplies in advance, you can afford to have an extra dog.

The pet market sells the most dogs, and there are all kinds of dogs.Ning Qiyan didn't pay much attention to this aspect before, but now he suddenly wanted to buy it, and he was a little confused.After turning around, I really couldn't tell the difference between the purebred and the purebred, the aristocrat and the aristocrat, and finally went back to the rabbit shop and consulted the familiar boss.

After listening to Ning Qiyan's question, the fat boss was amused, and handed over the store to the waiter, who personally took Ning Qiyan to the innermost part of the market.

"I have an old friend who runs a shop in it. He likes dogs all his life. I'll take you to ask him."

With that said, the fat boss brought Ning Qiyan into a not-so-big shop.Ning Qiyan took a glance and found that it was no different from other shops, they were all blocked by glass walls, and there were many dog ​​cages inside.But when he walked in, he found that this store was different.The boss who wants to come here is really a dog lover. Except for the dog cage at the door, most of the store is surrounded by high fences to form open spaces of different sizes, and many dogs are scattered in the fence.Although the place is not too big, it is still enough to move around, and it is better than keeping it in a cage is more comfortable.

"Where's Lao Li?" The fat boss asked the waiter at the door as soon as he came in.

The little guy was grooming a half-human tall dog, and when he heard what the fat boss said, he pointed to the innermost part.

When Ning Qiyan followed the fat boss to the innermost point, he saw a half-white-haired man squatting on the ground with his back facing them, and he didn't know what he was doing.

"Lao Li, what are you doing squatting here?" The fat boss stepped forward and patted the people on the ground.

"Wait for a while." The man didn't turn his head and threw a word.

The fat boss didn't care, he took two steps to one side, waved to Ning Qiyan, and sat on the empty chair.

Before long, the people on the ground stood up, moved their shoulders first, and then turned around.Looking at the front face, he is about sixty years old, with a thin but peaceful face.

"Xiao Tang is here, what's the matter?" Boss Li glanced at the rabbit cage at Ning Qiyan's feet and raised his eyebrows.

The fat boss smiled and pointed at Ning Qiyan, and said to Boss Li: "This little brother wants to buy a dog, but he doesn't know anything about dogs, so I'll bring him to you to ask."

Boss Li nodded to Ning Qiyan, walked over and sat down.

It wasn't until Boss Li got out of his previous position that Ning Qiyan realized that there was a half-grown puppy lying on his stomach in the corner blocked by Boss Li, with his head drooping.

Sensing Ning Qiyan's gaze, Boss Li said, "I just got drugged, and I'm losing my temper!"

Ning Qiyan couldn't help laughing, "Is this dog still throwing temper tantrums?"

Boss Li said with a smile: "Isn't it? Among animals, dogs are not low in IQ, and they are very close to people, and can sense the emotions of their owners. Not to mention losing their tempers, they are more likely to roll around like a baby."

After listening to Boss Li's words, Ning Qiyan felt that if he had such a little thing by his side, he would be able to pass the time in the boring days.

"Boss Li, I have a friend who is very calm, doesn't like to talk, and doesn't usually have any entertainment. What kind of dog do you think is suitable for raising? It's best to be easy to feed." Ning Qiyan asked.

"Male and female?" Boss Li asked directly, and by the way, glanced at the rabbit cage at Ning Qiyan's feet.

"male."

"How old is the house?"

"More than 140 square meters."

"Is there a place for a walk?"

"Have."

"How's your physique?"

"Very healthy, 1.8 meters tall, very strong."

"How's the economy?"

"The deposit is more than 100 million."

After the conditions were clarified, Boss Li nodded.But Ning Qiyan was a little speechless, the previous questions made him confused, did Boss Li choose an owner for the dog, or a son-in-law for his daughter? !

Boss Li thought for a while, and finally pointed at the little thing that was still drooping in the corner.

"Just it."

Ning Qiyan looked in the direction of his finger.

"This one?"

Boss Li nodded and waved to the little thing.The limp little thing stood up in an instant, grinning and rushing over.The distance of a few steps made it feel like a sprint.

"It's all right? Didn't you just finish taking the medicine?" Ning Qiyan asked in surprise.

Boss Li waved his hand, "I went to the shop next door to steal cat food to support me, and I was fed digestive medicine."

……

I can eat enough cat food, and it seems to be very easy to feed.

In the end, Ning Qiyan left the pet market with the dog, which was said to be a purebred husky.
