start with a pet store

Chapter 899 Drug Poisoning
"You are hating the rich. To rich people, a Porsche Taycan is just like a bicycle worth a few hundred dollars for us poor people. They may just feel a little hesitant when buying it, but it won't hurt. So, even though this thing is so expensive, there are still so many people who own it..." Xiao Liu patted Xiao Pang's shoulder and said with a smile.

“Everyone understands this logic, but the question is, why do they have so much money to spend, ahhhh…” said the Fatty, clenching his fists.

"Don't think about these things, being honest is the bottom line..." Xiaojiu laughed.

Lu Jingxing walked out holding this little thing that was as valuable as a Porsche Taycan: "Okay, let's go, it's time to clean up, and get ready to eat in groups..."

When it was time to get off work, everyone was in high spirits and there was constant laughter in the store.

Because the cat cafe in the second store is being renovated, the number of cats in the cat cafe in the first store has doubled in the past few days.

Lu Jingxing went over to take a look before leaving get off work. Although there were a lot of cats, fortunately, these little guys had been in the cat cafe for a long time, so there wouldn't be the fights that happen in catteries. Moreover, the cats in the cat cafe are generally docile, and fights don't happen often. Although it looks a bit crowded, there's no one here, and there's a feeling of peace and tranquility.

He turned around and came out. Since he was not going to use this location as a cat cafe anymore, he had to think about how to make use of it.

When he was about to get off work, he received a call from his childhood friend: "Uncle Xiaoxing, is my dog ​​okay?"

It was his childhood friend Xiaofeng calling. Lu Jingxing slapped his forehead and said, "Xiaofeng, what's wrong? Do you want a dog?"

"Is it OK? Is it fixed?" Xiao Feng's voice came from the other side of the microphone, sounding cautious.

Lu Jingxing walked towards the observation room while answering the phone: "Uncle, go and take a look now, it should be ready to be discharged..."

"Wow, really? Is it all right?" Xiao Feng's voice was noticeably higher.

Lu Jingxing smiled softly: "It's not completely healed yet, but it can be discharged from the hospital. After it is discharged, do you think you can take good care of it?"

"Okay, I promise, I will give it all my snacks and all the delicious food..." Xiao Feng said loudly and happily over there.

His father patted his head and said, "Silly boy, how come I have a silly son like you? How come the dog ate your snacks..."

"Ah? It can't be eaten? Then what does it eat? Oh, I know, bones, right? Then I want my grandma to give it bones every day..." Xiao Feng was still excited.

"Haha, it has dog food. Uncle will bring it to you later. It can't eat your snacks, especially chocolate. Don't give it to it..." Lu Jingxing said with a smile after hearing this.

"Can't it eat chocolate? Why?" Xiao Feng asked with great doubt.

"Why do you have so many whys? Okay, let's hang up. Uncle Xiaoxing is busy. You can ask your hundred thousand whys when he comes over..." The childhood friend patted his son again.

"Stop hitting my head, Dad..." Xiao Feng protested.

"You can't hit the head, don't hit our Xiaofeng stupid..." Lu Jingxing also said with a smile: "Okay, Xiaofeng, I'll bring it to you later, just wait..."

"Okay, okay, Uncle Xiaoxing, I'll be waiting for you in the store..." Xiaofeng immediately shouted happily.

"Okay..." Lu Jingxing smiled and hung up the phone.

He went to get a bag of dog food, picked out some dog supplies, and prepared to drive them to Xiaofeng.

He had just returned to the observation room and was about to take the paper out when he heard someone at the door shouting, "Excuse me, is anyone here?"

Ding Fang and her friends had already finished get off work. Only the small door of the store was open. It was almost dark outside. When Lu Jingxing heard the voice, he immediately walked out: "Hello..."

The visitor was a girl. Seeing Lu Jingxing in the store, she was very excited: "Oh, someone is here, that's great..."

She walked in through the small door: "Doctor, are you a doctor? Please help me see what's wrong with my Xiaobei..." As she spoke, her voice began to cry.

"What are the symptoms?" Lu Jingxing took the airline box from her and took her to the treatment room.

"I just got back from get off work and found that it seemed to be gone. It was fine before I went out. Can you help me look at it..." The girl trotted to keep up with Lu Jingxing.

Sudden blindness?
Lu Jingxing put the airline box on the treatment table, then took the little guy out of the box: "Let me take a look first."

The little guy looked confused when he came out. It is a American shorthair cat with a chubby face. You can tell at a glance that the owner has put a lot of thought into it.

The little fellow's eyes were wide open and pitch black. The lights in the store were on at this time. Logically, its pupils should not be so big. Moreover, it was not looking at any particular place. It seemed that it did not know the height when walking. It lifted its feet high and was extremely careful with every step.

Lu Jingxing took a cat toy and shook it in front of the little guy. The little guy raised his head and sniffed with his nose, with his eyes obviously unfocused.

"It doesn't even know to grab its favorite cat food, and it usually doesn't react very actively when it sees cat food..." The girl calmed down a little now, and said, touching Xiaobei's back.

"I really can't see it. Let's do a blood test first..." The girl couldn't explain it, and Lu Jingxing couldn't tell the reason at a glance. A blood test was the most direct way to check.

"Okay..." The girl nodded immediately.

At this moment, there were only Lu Jingxing and an employee on duty in the store. He went to the backyard to do a blood test, but the guy probably didn't know how to do it.

Lu Jingxing had no choice but to do it himself.

Xiaobei was quite well behaved. When we were taking a blood test, he only cried out softly when the needle was inserted, and he didn't resist at all otherwise.

The results came out quickly. Lu Jingxing looked at the results and found the girl waiting in the hall: "The results show that it should be blindness caused by drug poisoning. Has it taken any medicine recently?"

This result was a little beyond Lu Jingxing's expectations.

"Ah, drug poisoning?" The girl opened her mouth wide, obviously she was more surprised.

Lu Jingxing nodded: "Yes, have you given it any other medicine recently? Is the dosage too high..."

The girl shook her head repeatedly: "It has always been in good health. I have never given it medicine." She couldn't remember what medicine it had taken that caused the poisoning.

"Well, have you given it any anthelmintic medicine in the past two days?" Lu Jingxing asked.

"Ah? Anti-insect medicine, well, well, I used the external one on it yesterday, which I applied on its neck. Yes, I applied it on it last night..." The girl came to her senses and said repeatedly.

"That might be because it licked me..." Lu Jingxing looked at Xiao Bei, who was sniffing around on the ground cautiously. The little guy's eyes were scary black, and his tail kept wagging. He walked to the wall and touched his head before walking back. He sniffed every step he took, looking innocent and weak.

"Hey, could it be so serious if it licked me?" the girl was shocked.

"Yeah, you probably didn't read the instructions carefully..." Lu Jingxing shook his head helplessly. "I...I usually do this, doctor, is there any other way? Will I be blind in the future..." The girl asked with a trembling voice because she was so scared just thinking about it.

"Let's get injections for two days first..." This is not a very effective method, so we can only rely on injections.

The little guy shrank into the corner at this time. He was actually even more panicked and didn't understand why this happened.

Lu Jingxing squatted down and touched the little guy's head: "Don't be afraid, it's safe here, we won't hurt you..."

"Meow...I can't see..." The little guy whimpered when he heard Lu Jingxing's voice.

"I know, it will be fine..." Lu Jingxing said in a voice that only he and Xiao Bei could hear.

“Meow…” Xiaobei stretched his head towards him and leaned on his hand.

After pacifying Xiao Bei, Lu Jingxing gave the little guy an injection, and then said to its owner: "Let him stay in the hospital tonight, and give him another injection tomorrow. Let's see how he gets better. It will get better, but it may take some time."

The girl heaved a long sigh after hearing this: "Okay, okay, I'll listen to you. As long as it can get better, anything is fine..."

Her mistake almost caused Xiaobei to go blind, and she was really scared.

"Okay, I'll help you get it hospitalized. If you want to stay here with it, stay with it until it gets the injection. It's okay if you don't want to stay with it, we have someone to guard it..." Lu Jingxing said.

He was also afraid that Xiaofeng would get impatient waiting, so the injection would mean that he would be fine for the time being.

"I'll stay here with it for now. It's very timid..." The girl said as she looked at Xiao Bei who was receiving an IV in the cage.

Lu Jingxing nodded, completed the formalities, informed the employee on duty of the situation, and drove to the store with the paper dog.

From a distance he saw Xiaofeng standing at the door of the store looking over here.

Lu Jingxing smiled unconsciously, knowing that the little guy was getting anxious.

Seeing him coming, Xiaofeng jumped on the spot.

"Uncle Xiaoxing, Uncle Xiaoxing..." His father didn't allow him to go to the road, so he only dared to shout loudly on the street.

Lu Jingxing smiled and waved at him: "Xiao Feng..."

Then I saw the childhood friend touching Xiaofeng's head and coming up to him: "If you don't come, the little guy's eyes will pop out. Since you hung up the phone, he has been standing at the door waiting. He has asked hundreds of times why Uncle Xiaoxing hasn't come yet, why hasn't he come yet..." The childhood friend said with a smile.

"Something went wrong..." Lu Jingxing opened the trunk of the car and took down the cage containing the paper: "Look, this is the piece of paper you saved."

"A piece of paper?" Xiao Feng asked doubtfully.

"Oh, haha, wasn't it as thin as a piece of paper that day? I named it Paper, you can give it another name yourself..." Lu Jingxing also touched Xiaofeng's head and said with a smile.

"Okay, okay, I'm going to give it a resounding name..." Xiao Feng said loudly.

"Uncle Xiaoxing, can I let it out?" He looked up at Lu Jingxing.

"Of course, you are its owner, and it will listen to your command from now on. You can place it however you want, without asking Uncle Xiaoxing..." Lu Jingxing said to him with a smile.

"Great..." Xiao Feng opened the cage directly: "Come out, come out and play..." He waved at the piece of paper in the cage, then held his chin and muttered to himself: "What name should I give you?"

The childhood friend smiled and shook his head: "This kid finally fulfilled his wish. Let's go in and have a cup of tea..."

Lu Jingxing followed him inside: "I actually think it's a good thing for children to have a cat or a dog. You'll understand later. Although it may seem like one more thing to you, it's really a healing thing for children..."

What Lu Jingxing said was from the heart. The affection that small animals have for their owners is the purest. When a person is young, having a beloved animal is truly a healing thing for his childhood and it is something that other children will always envy.

"You are in this business, how can you say anything bad about them?" The childhood friend laughed and said, "I have already promised him, don't worry, I will let him raise them..."

Lu Jingxing also laughed. His childhood friend was a person with a sharp tongue but a soft heart. He had known this would happen.

Back in his childhood friend's office, Lu Jingxing told Xiaofeng some precautions on how to take care of the paper. The little guy listened carefully and held on to the paper tightly, refusing to let go.

Obviously the hug wasn't very comfortable, but the piece of paper didn't show any emotion at all.

Lu Jingxing brought down all the dog food and other things for them.

The childhood friend insisted on giving him money, but Lu Jingxing refused to take it: "Just think of it as a gift from me as his uncle. Can you please not make it smell like money..."

My childhood friend laughed: "Okay, you have the final say..."

The two sat down and chatted for a while, and when it was almost ten o'clock, Lu Jingxing went back.

Before he went back, he went to the store to check and found that Xiaobei's owner had already gone back. The little guy was lying quietly in the corner of the cage, looking a little lost, but Lu Jingxing believed that the little guy would recover after a few days of injections.

Before he went back, he went to see the batch of cats that he had collected from the cat cafe.

He kept all the little ones together, so that the other little ones in the store would not be affected much.

After so much treatment, the little ones' skin diseases were cured.

Now new hair is slowly growing out, and they are no longer completely bald. When they saw him come in, the little ones all looked up at him.

Lu Jingxing greeted them with a smile. Now they were already used to the fact that he would talk to them.

"My friends, please think about this. We have just opened a new cat cafe. If you are still willing to go to the cat cafe, I will come to register you then. If you don't want to go to the cat cafe anymore, you can choose to go to the cat house in the back and be a cat that can move freely..." Lu Jingxing clapped his hands and woke up the little ones.

As soon as he finished speaking, there was a chorus of meows in the room: "Meow... Can we choose by ourselves?" A rag doll standing in a cage very close to him asked him.

"Of course, I just want you to make your own choice. If you want, I can take you to the cattery to have a look first, and you can make a decision then..." He said with a smile, as if he was chatting with an old friend.
