Chapter 137: Verbal Sword
Not all people who are not poor in money are willing to spend a lot of money on expensive pets.
This is especially true for first-time pet owners, as well as a considerable number of middle-aged and elderly people who have developed the habit of saving.
is like Yang Mu at the beginning, he obviously has hundreds of thousands of deposits in his hands, but he is still reluctant to spend a high price to buy those three-generation bloodlines or so-called race-level dogs.
He was only willing to spend more than 1,000 yuan to buy back the single generation of Lao Hei with a clear bloodline.
Fortunately, he was lucky, and Lao Hei grew into a first-class border herd.
This is what Yang Mu has to consider now.
He can't turn away customers who want low-priced puppies.
You know, after a puppy is sold, it will still bring a lot of business to the store in the future.
Owning a dog is actually a very expensive thing.
When you calculate this account, it's really scary.
Starting from puppies, vaccinations and deworming cost money, and a full set of at least two or three hundred.
If it is bought at a low price from the dog market, you have to pray that it will never get sick, once you get sick, go to the pet hospital to see it, at least hundreds or thousands, and it may not be cured.
Next, dog food costs money when feeding, nutrition costs money, and treats cost money......
In addition, daily necessities for dogs also cost money, such as collars, leashes, clothes, toys, kennels, etc.
In addition, pet bathing, grooming, training, etc. are also constantly costing money.
Calculate it casually, according to the normal raising method, it is not a problem for a dog to easily spend three to five thousand or even tens of thousands in a year.
If the dog will tear up the house, the cost will be higher.
If the dog owner happens to be a rich man who is not bad for money, the cost is even more ridiculously high.
And most of these expenses will become the income of pet stores.
Of course, there are also low-cost ways to raise dogs, that is, like raising local dogs in the countryside, dogs eat leftovers, pet bathing and grooming, etc.
That would really save a lot of money.
But for the residents of Regency Gardens, very few people do that, because it's very troublesome.
What can be done for a small amount of money, people here rarely bother to toss on their own.
This is the reason why Yang Mu also considers selling low-priced pets.
You must know that people's consumption habits are continuous, if once a person identifies a certain store, he will not easily change to another store to consume, unless the store itself dies and does something very bad about the reputation.
Yang Mu began to talk to Mi Li about this.
"There are a lot of customers who want low-priced puppies without pedigree papers, how do you solve this matter?"
Mi Li was stunned for a moment.
It's not that she hasn't thought about this problem, but what bothers her is that she doesn't have a proper solution to it.
She had no choice but to continue to ask: "Daxian, please instruct." ”
That's a good attitude!
Yang Mu replied proudly: "It's simple, go to the dog market to buy puppies, and sell them separately from the puppies in regular dog farms." ”
It was the only trick he could think of.
However, his proposal was immediately opposed by Mi Li: "Most of the puppies there are virus carriers!"
It is clear that Mi Li completely disagrees with this proposal.
This was also expected by Yang Mu.
If it weren't for long-term consideration, Yang Mu would not have such an idea.
"Of course I know that they are carriers of the virus, but those puppies, basically happen to be dogs about 40 days old, as soon as you come back from the stock, if you immediately deworm and vaccinate, the survival rate is still very high. ”
"However, it is possible to transmit the virus to puppies that come in through regular channels. ”
Yang Mu didn't expect that Mi Li's opinions were not fully accepted, and once she encountered different opinions, she still insisted on her own opinions.
But it doesn't matter, Yang Mu has already taken this into account.
"It's very simple, you find a place to feed separately, and then take it to the store after more than two shots of the vaccine and the virus reaction test is not positive! As long as you do a good job of disinfection, there will not be too much risk of infection. ”
This can be regarded as the perfect strategy that Yang Mu thought of.
In fact, several common viruses in puppies are very unstable in the room temperature environment, and commonly used disinfection methods, such as ultraviolet lamp irradiation, potion disinfection, etc., can easily kill them.
Therefore, as long as the necessary disinfection measures are taken and direct contact between puppies and sick dogs is prevented, the transmission of the virus between puppies can be prevented.
If the puppies imported from the dog market and the puppies purchased from the regular dog farm are fostered separately, it can be foolproof.
As long as the rice grains are carefully purchased and the puppies with existing symptoms are clearly excluded, combined with vaccinations and other means, you can not worry about the situation of a large number of dogs in your store.
According to Yang Mu's understanding, the cheap puppies sold in those pet stores on the market without pedigree certificates are purchased through the dog market, and the reason why there are dogs in some pet stores is that the preventive measures of these pet stores are not in place.
In order to explain these truths clearly to Mi Li, Yang Mu spent a lot of effort.
Fortunately, he did his homework very well, and after a lot of research, he mastered the relevant knowledge very comprehensively.
But Mi Li still has a different opinion: "Isn't this kind of behavior encouraging the unscrupulous behavior of breeding factories and dog dealers?
Yang Mu was stunned.
He knows that there is indeed such a saying in the dog friend group that going to the dog market to buy a dog is to help the abuse and condone the bad behavior of unscrupulous dog dealers, so there are many people who call for: Don't go to the dog market to buy dogs.
Yang Mu didn't expect that the young lady would also be a supporter of this view.
It seems that she is indeed a true dog lover!
However, Yang Mu has a different view on this.
He asked, "If you don't go to the dog market to buy the goods, will you be able to ensure that those puppies don't flow from the breeding factory to the dog market?"
Seeing this question, Mi Li was stunned for a moment.
She can be sure that the boycott of some dog friends will not affect the existence of the dog market, and there are so many people who want to keep dogs, and there will still be a large number of people who want to buy dogs cheaply.
Reluctantly, she replied, "No." ”
Yang Mu immediately replied: "Then do you know that if you go to the dog market to buy goods, those puppies that you bought can avoid becoming a weekly dog and dying because of vaccination, deworming and other measures in place?"
Mi Li was stunned again.
Can it still be understood in this way?
However, she had to admit that what Daxian said was also very reasonable. If she goes to buy from the dog market, it will actually be a salvation for those puppies that she buys.
Now she was a little conflicted.
She didn't know whether to listen to Daxian's advice for a while, or stick to her own opinion.
Yang Mu began to drag: "Saving a person's life is better than creating a seventh-level floating slaughter, and the same is true for saving a dog's life." True dog lovers should put love on dogs and do their best to do a little bit of it. ”
Regardless of whether Yang Mu's statement was a fallacy or not, but at this moment, Mi Li was finally persuaded by him.
In the puppy management, Yang Mu can implement it according to his own ideas.
