There was also a pet market in the crowded part of the market.
In fact, the pet market here was more like a market in the countryside. It was noisy and there were all kinds of strange sounds of animals. There were specialized pet shops and peddlers who brought pets here to sell. In short, this small area was full, and there was no empty space.
Zhang Wenyuan walked in with the flow of people. He had really gained some knowledge. He fully understood the meaning of the phrase 'there is nothing you can't think of and nothing you can't do'.
The most common cats and dogs were sold here. There were also rare pet pigs, white mice, parrots, and myna. Even snakes, which were rarely treated as pets, were sold here. What surprised Zhang Wenyuan even more was that all kinds of colorful insects, spiders, and scorpions were also pets.
If there was demand, there would be a market. There would definitely be people who wanted it, and then there would be people who would sell it. He could only sigh at how strange and powerful the hobbies of modern people were. It was so powerful that it made people gasp in amazement.
Zhang Wenyuan walked into a pet shop. Before the boss could greet him, the parrot hanging at the door began to shout loudly.
"Good people, good people are here!"
As she shouted, she flapped her wings and flew down from the hanging pole above the door to land on Zhang Wenyuan's shoulder. She used her sharp mouth to gently touch Zhang Wenyuan's hair to show her affection.
Zhang Wenyuan was surprised. He had an inexplicable attraction to animals because of his small world, but it wasn't to this extent?
Actually, the boss was even more shocked than Zhang Wenyuan. This parrot had flown in by itself. It had just entered the room not long ago. It was smart, but it was a little arrogant. It was always indifferent to people. At most, it would say "welcome" weakly. It had never been so close to that person like today.
If not for Zhang Wenyuan's lack of reaction, the boss would have thought that the owner had found the shop.
Zhang Wenyuan tried to approach the other pets in the cage. Fortunately, there were no other extreme reactions. It could only be said that this parrot was extraordinary. It had more Ling surnames than other pets.
When they were in the mountains, the small animals in the mountains still had a certain sense of the small world in Zhang Wenyuan's body. There was an inexplicable attraction but also a natural alertness. They only watched from afar but did not approach. As long as there was a little movement, they would quickly leave.
The pets in cages had lost their Tian and Ling surnames because they had been in the city for too long. Just like humans who lived in comfort, they had degenerated many of their sensitive senses. They did not have the sensitive sense of danger and the surrounding environment that wild animals that grew naturally in the mountains and forests had. It was natural that they could not sense Zhang Wenyuan's aura.
Zhang Wenyuan heaved a sigh of relief when he saw this reaction. Otherwise, he wouldn't even dare to visit the pet market. If all animals were as sensitive as this parrot, they would pounce on him when they saw him. He couldn't imagine what it would be like to be surrounded by a group of animals, and how people would view him.
Fortunately, it did not exceed the scope of people's understanding. They could only sigh at the parrot's spiritual surname.
On second thought, Zhang Wenyuan became happy again. As long as it was an animal with the surname Ling, it would be aware of the aura on his body. The more animals with the surname Ling, the more sensitive their senses were, and the more intense their reaction to his aura. Wouldn't that mean that he could tell if an animal had a spiritual surname just by standing next to it?
This seemed like a useless function, but it was not.
People who owned dogs often knew that the quality of a dog depended on its background, which was the breed. The other was to see if the dog had the surname Ling. The purer the breed, the more excellent genes it inherited from its parents. The more spiritual a dog was, the greater its potential for future development.
The quality of a breed could be seen from its appearance, but the presence of a spirit could not be seen with the eyes. If a dog wanted to be trained to be a good dog, it had to have more or less a spiritual surname. This way, it could better communicate with humans and understand their intentions, so that it could carry out orders well.
The spirit surname usually started to disappear when the dog was two or three months old. If it could not be selected, it was possible that a good dog would be buried. As for the puppies without the surname Ling, they were useless after spending a lot of effort to raise them. What was the use of freedom?
Therefore, this function was still useful, especially for a dog lover. It was a treasure that could select more good dogs and train them to sell at a good price.
After figuring out the reason and the function of the small world, Zhang Wenyuan lost interest in staying in the pet shop. He turned around and walked out of the shop.
Seeing Zhang Wenyuan leave, the parrot also wanted to leave, but the rope tied to the hanging pole restricted its freedom. When he flew to the door, he was caught by the rope and shouted anxiously,"Help! Help!"
Zhang Wenyuan turned around and looked helplessly at the parrot that was still flapping in the air. He did not expect that one day, he would be entangled by a parrot and shout for help, as if something had happened to it.
The shop owner also followed him out. Seeing this scene, he didn't know whether to laugh or cry. This parrot had not been here for long. It had always been lazy and arrogant. It treated this place as a free canteen and never deliberately showed off. It did not expect to have such a shameless side today.
"I wonder if this gentleman is interested in this parrot?”
Before Zhang Wenyuan could reply, the parrot hurriedly replied,"I'm interested, I'm interested."
Zhang Wenyuan wanted to reject the boss, but on second thought, other pets lost their spiritual surnames long ago after staying in the city for a long time. Although it was in the city, it could still maintain such a high spiritual surname. It was so sensitive to the aura of the small world on its body, and it was so smart. Compared to the natural creatures that grew in the mountains, they had their own unique talents.
Therefore, he changed his mind. It was a pity that such a thing with the surname Ling would gradually wear down its surname Ling in the city and eventually become the same as other pets.
"How much?" Zhang Wenyuan asked casually.
Although it was just a simple sentence, in the eyes of a smart person, it was knowledgeable. It was obvious that the owner was very happy to sell the parrot, and even a little anxious. If the owner was a smart person, he would have gotten a signal from these three words---he didn't care much about the quality of the parrot, but only cared about the price. In this way, when the boss quoted the price, he would consider whether the price would be too high and scare people away. Therefore, the price would not be too unrealistic.
"Yes, 2,500."
Although this price was slightly higher, it was still within the scope of reality. Moreover, there was still room for negotiation.
This was the effect that Zhang Wenyuan wanted. With just one sentence, he gave the boss the impression that he would leave without saying a word. This way, the initial price would be more reasonable, and the subsequent bargaining would be easier to carry out.
Of course, such a simple word could only be said to the shrewd and observant boss. If he met a boss who was purely intent on ripping people off, he would interpret these three words as " I'm a fat sheep."
Obviously, this boss was the former.
"Too many." Zhang Wenyuan turned around and was about to leave after saying that.
The boss quickly said,"It's still negotiable. Don't be in a hurry to leave."”
In fact, such a clever parrot was far more expensive than that. However, when other customers came, they had never seen this parrot so enthusiastic as today. Instead, it was hostile. Naturally, no one would like it. Most customers would not ask about it, so there was no need to talk about the price.
Moreover, this parrot flew here on its own, so there was no cost to it. No matter how much it was sold, it would definitely make a profit.
"Sir, how much do you want?" The boss stopped Zhang Wenyuan from leaving and said.
"This parrot of yours is also a freak and a weirdo. I reckon no one wants it. Boss, just give me a sincere price!" Zhang Wenyuan did not answer directly, but kicked the ball to the pet shop owner.
At this moment, whoever said the low price first was actually at a disadvantage, because this would give the other party a chance to lower the price again. Of course, the owner knew all this, but he couldn't care less about it now. He really wanted to sell this parrot's "exotic treasure".
" Two thousand, that's the lowest price," the boss said, pretending to be in a difficult position.
"The boss is still not sincere." Zhang Wenyuan said.
The pet shop owner looked at the parrot, who had quieted down as if he knew that this was a moment that would decide his fate. He couldn't sell it, and he couldn't kill it. It would be a waste of food to leave it in the shop. He said helplessly.
"Then please give me a sincere price."
"Eight hundred." Zhang Wenyuan was still a man of few words.
"It's too little. It's not enough to buy the capital.”
"Liar…Liar…" As soon as the pet shop owner stopped talking, the parrot jumped out to expose him. {Hahaha}
" Hehe," Zhang Wenyuan chuckled." This parrot is smart."”
The boss also laughed dryly, his face a little awkward.
"Since that's the case, I'll add another 200 to make 1,000. If Boss still feels that I'm at a disadvantage, then I'll turn around and leave.”Zhang Wenyuan said.
The pet shop owner hesitated for a while, then looked at the parrot that was still noisy on the pole, and finally made up his mind.
"Alright, 1,000 it is. I'll treat it as a loss of money to make friends with you today.”
After paying, the boss untied the rope from the boom and handed it to Zhang Wenyuan. Zhang Taiping immediately untied the rope tied to the parrot's leg under the puzzled eyes of the pet shop owner and completely set it free.
Zhang Wenyuan was still confident that this parrot would not run away, or even chase it away. If they were to leave so easily now, it wouldn't be worth it for him to spend so much time and money to buy it.
After leaving the pet shop, the parrot really didn't fly away. It just circled in the air and landed on Zhang Wenyuan's shoulder, gently combing its feathers. The owner of the pet shop was surprised again. He could only sigh that there were all kinds of strange things in the world.
