start with a pet store

Chapter 932 I Don’t Have a Master

Lu Jingxing took the gray Teddy bear named Benboer from the two men’s arms. The little guy looked listless and had no energy at all.

The tumor on my stomach seems to be a little bigger than the one in the photo I saw yesterday.

"I see it's getting bigger. We have to do the operation." The hostess stared at Benbo'er's belly.

Lu Jingxing nodded: "It seems to have grown a little bigger."

He confirmed with the two that the little guy had not had any water since midnight last night, then asked them to sign the consent form for the surgery together, and then took Xi Wenxin into the operating room that had been prepared yesterday.

When he came, he brought all the tools with him, including anesthetics.

As for Xi Wenxin, he only needed to help when he was told to do something, and to watch the fight at other times.

The operation had already been performed last night. Lu Jingxing was in great shape throughout the whole process and the operation went more smoothly than expected.

Excluding the time of administering anesthesia and waking up from anesthesia, the entire operation took only about an hour.

His operation surprised Xi Wenxin again: "Can you recommend your master to me? No, where did you learn this skill? Why do you look like you are embroidering? Also, your sewing technique is too good..."

Lu Jingxing smiled dumbly: "I don't have a master. To be honest, I really learned everything by myself. I think it might be that after I returned to Long'an, a certain immortal opened up my Ren and Du meridians one night. The immortal thought that I was suitable to be a pet doctor, so I learned it..."

Xi Wenxin shook his head: "No, why should I believe it so much?"

"Believe it or not, I really don't have a master. Besides, if I did, would I have kept it a secret from you..." Lu Jingxing joked with Xi Wenxin while packing up his tools and waiting for the little guy to wake up from the anesthetic.

"Is it true? But I've never heard you say this before. I still remember that there were a lot of stray cats in our school, but I never saw you feeding them. At most, you didn't hate them, but I didn't think you liked them that much..." Xi Wenxin said in confusion.

"I'm serious. I really didn't understand it before. I just feel that since I opened my shop, I have been able to perform this operation more and more smoothly. If you want me to tell you how many tricks I have, I really don't have any. If I were doing this kind of operation in Long'an, I would also do an examination first. But, to be honest with you, let me tell you myself, this kind of operation, or even more difficult operations, as long as I have seen it, basically there is no way to avoid it, and perhaps there is no need for an examination..." Lu Jingxing was not bragging. He reminded himself at all times that the secret could not be told. However, people are like this. If a secret is hidden in the heart for too long, it will sometimes be said unintentionally, but he still maintains this degree and will not tell it all.

He said this half-jokingly and half-seriously, which probably cleared up Xi Wenxin's confusion. His relationship with Xi was obvious, and if he didn't tell him anything, he wouldn't believe it. At least if it were me, I wouldn't want to believe it myself. If I didn't make it clear, after a long time, there would be a gap between my friends, and they would think that I was hiding something.

In fact, he was overthinking it. At least for now, Xi Wenxin didn't think that far. He just felt that Lu Jingxing's surgical process was a little too amazing.

This was his first time on the operating table. He didn't know how others felt, but he had already stepped half a step into the pet industry, and he felt that Lu Jingxing's operation was amazing.

Half an hour later, Benbo slowly showed signs of waking up.

Lu Jingxing checked it one last time and felt that everything was safe. He said to Xi Wenxin, "You stay here and watch it. I'll go talk to its owner. The medicine will take another two hours..."

Seeing Xi Wenxin nodded in acceptance, he walked out.

Although Benboer has completed the surgery, it does not mean that he is completely healed.

As soon as he came out of the operating room, he saw the two masters waiting in the hall. When they saw him, they came up to him and asked, "How is it? Doctor Lu, can Benboer be saved?"

"The operation is completed. It went smoothly and took shorter time than I expected. Doctor Xi is now accompanying the patient to wake up from the anesthetic. I'll come out and tell you about the situation..." Lu Jingxing said as he took off his gloves.

"That's good, that's good, I knew that as long as you are here, there will be no problem..." The hostess bowed with both hands and kept expressing her gratitude.

Lu Jingxing made a gesture of invitation and led the two to the sofa: "The operation is completed. I still need to tell you a few precautions after the operation."

The two nodded and followed him to sit on the sofa.

"You say, I remember." The man took out a notebook from his bag and prepared to write down everything Lu Jingxing said like a student.

Lu Jingxing smiled slightly, but did not stop him. He was going to say it anyway, and it would be better if he wrote it down.

"First, Benbo will not fully recover after the surgery. He needs more careful care during the recovery process. I said this yesterday. Also, as you know, this place is something like a cat cafe. So, we don't have any instruments to do other examinations on him. I felt during the surgery that his heart function was not very good. If possible, I suggest you take him to a pet hospital for a comprehensive heart examination." Lu Jingxing said.

"Heart? Does it have a bad heart? I've never heard of it having problems in this area." The hostess said with some disbelief.

"It's normal for it to have heart problems at such an old age. I noticed that its heart is rather enlarged, and the tumor may also affect its heart, so I suggest you go for another check-up," Lu Jingxing explained.

The man nodded and said, "Okay, we'll take it to the doctor after it's done with the surgery. But what do we need to do?"

"Cardiac ultrasound, electrocardiogram, and blood pressure all need to be checked to determine which stage the child's heart is in. According to the stage of the heart, appropriate medicine can be prescribed. It will be better to use the medicine after the examination. There is no blind guess about the heart. I can't prescribe medicine for it at will. Blind use of medicine may cause it to develop drug resistance prematurely, as well as toxic side effects..." This is just like the elderly, who will have some diseases like high blood pressure when they get old.

Although the two owners were unwilling to believe it, they still listened to Lu Jingxing's words and nodded in unison: "Okay, then we will take it for a check-up as soon as possible."

As a doctor, he naturally likes such obedient family members the most. Lu Jingxing nodded slightly.

He went on to say, "In terms of diet, I recommend feeding Benboer heart prescription food or senior dog food. You must control his weight and prevent him from becoming obese. His diet should also be light. You can add high-fiber food to help enhance gastrointestinal function and promote digestion."

The man wrote without raising his head. When he finally finished, he raised his head and said, "Well, Doctor Lu, do you have all these high-fiber foods and heart prescription foods you mentioned?"

Lu Jingxing smiled and shook his head: "I didn't bring anything this time, because I came here for the cats in this room, so this time I mainly brought cat supplies. You can buy the food at other pet stores, or if you trust me, I can ask my store in Longan to ship it to you. It's just that in terms of time, if it is shipped today, it may not arrive until the day after tomorrow." "No problem, no problem, the day after tomorrow is the day after tomorrow. Anyway, it can't eat for the next two days, right? Of course we trust you..." the hostess said repeatedly.

"Thank you. Benbo will need oxygen today. After the operation, he will need some painkillers for a while. I will prescribe the painkillers for you later. I suggest taking only a small dose for now. Then, his kidney function needs to be checked regularly about every half a month..." The conditions here are like this, and Lu Jingxing can only do this.

Neither of them said anything against it, especially the hostess, who approved of what Lu Jingxing said: "Okay, we'll do whatever you say."

"That's the best. As doctors, we fear the most that no matter what we say, our masters have their own ideas..." Lu Jingxing smiled lightly.

"Then we are not that kind of people, is there anything else?" The hostess also chuckled.

"That's all for now. Anyway, I've given you my phone number. If you have any questions, call me anytime. I may go back to Long'an tomorrow or tonight. There will only be one person left here to guard the store for now." Lu Jingxing stood up and poured himself a glass of water, then turned around and asked, "Would you like some water?"

"We don't need it, we don't need it, we have our own..." The man waved his hands repeatedly.

"Then, Dr. Lu, are you going to open a pet hospital or a pet shop here in the future?" The hostess stood up and looked around: "If we open a pet hospital, this seems a little small..."

Lu Jingxing drank half a glass of water and sat down with a smile: "You are right, we do want to open a pet hospital, and the location is indeed a bit small, but it has not been decided yet, and the plan has not started yet. Now it is mainly for the thirty or so cats in this store. Anyway, no matter what happens in the future, this store will be run..."

The problem she raised really hit the nail on the head. The three of them discussed it for a long time last night. The rent for this place is only ten thousand, so you can imagine how big the place can be.

Fortunately, several storefronts nearby now have signs saying "for rent" or "for transfer," so it would be easy for them to expand. However, it's not something that can be done on the spur of the moment. They need to go back and discuss it carefully. Also, if they really want to open a hospital, it will take time to complete all the formalities.

He would also talk to his rich husband, Zhao Jingming, to see if he would be willing to invest.

In short, the chain reaction caused by the opening of the store has not yet begun.

I estimate that this will happen at least two months later.

The male owner also covered the notebook at this time: "Your location is actually quite good. There are only two or three small pet shops within 20 kilometers. They can't treat pets and are just the kind that buy and sell pets. I have been to this area many times and I know it all. If you open a hospital, the business should be good..."

Lu Jingxing also nodded in agreement: "That's what I said, but it's not easy to do it."

"That's true..." The male host also laughed.

After Lu Jingxing came out, both of them looked much more relaxed, and their tone of voice became much lighter during the conversation.

"Okay, I'll go in and take a look. He should be awake. I can take him back after the injection. Oh, it's better to let him breathe oxygen for a while..." Lu Jingxing stood up and prepared to go inside.

Xi Wenxin just walked out: "Lu, it woke up, it seems to be fine..."

Lu Jingxing nodded and walked in with him.

When they came out again, the little guy was fully awake.

After letting it rest in the store for about two hours, I let it go home with its owner.

As long as there are no other accidents, there will be no problem as long as the little guy is taken good care of at home.

At around ten o'clock, Pan Erdong rushed in: "Brother Xi, I have arranged everything. The landlord will come to collect the house tomorrow. When will it be convenient for me to move in?"

"That's not up to you. The landlord will come to collect the house tomorrow, so you have to move your things today. But you have to sleep on the sofa tonight..." Xi Wenxin said with a smile.

"Hey, no problem. I've got all the things here. I'll move them to your place later. Here, I can officially start work today..." Pan Erdong said excitedly.

Lu Jingxing looked at him and smiled, "You are trying to defeat your brother Xi. Fortunately, he is mentally prepared. Okay, since you are here, come with me. We may leave tonight or at most tomorrow. For the next month, you will be the only one here. Of course, brother Xi will leave a few days later. You can come here to get familiar with the place first..."

Pan Erdong hurriedly followed.

Lu Jingxing pointed them out one by one and said, "We will take these ones back with us. They have some minor problems. The others just haven't had enough nutrition recently. Some of them are thin. They will recover after a while. What you have to do is to feed them on time every day, and try to give them all a bath in the next few days."

Then, speaking of bathing, he continued, "You already bathed a few of them yesterday. When bathing kittens, we theoretically cannot wear gloves. We must comfort them before bathing. Cats are prone to stress, and we must avoid this as much as possible."

It had been a long time since he had taught his employees so seriously. Fortunately, the knowledge was always there, and it was still very smooth to speak. Pan Erdong listened very carefully.

Before I knew it, two hours had passed.

Pan Erdong and Xi Wenxin listened as long as he talked, and both of them officially entered the pet industry.

Song Yuan came over and said, "It's noon again. Let's go eat something. What are your plans for the afternoon? We've finished cleaning, so we won't take another afternoon shower in the afternoon, right?"

He felt like dying, didn't like taking a shower, and felt tired and exhausted.

Lu Jingxing smiled and said, "How can I do that? It was already very wrong for you, the young master, to help us wash the whole afternoon yesterday. This afternoon, the three of us will go shopping, and leave the job of bathing to this little guy..."
