: Mr. Liar
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Other people might not know about Sun Yinian’s hot temper as much as his daughter, Sun Xiaomeng, knew it all too well. Although not a young man anymore, her father was still a dreamer. He named her
Xiaomeng
.
Meng
in Chinese means dreams.
Xiao
referred to the fact that she was born at dawn.
Her father’s dream was to grow Pets’ Home into the largest comprehensive breeding base in the country. Therefore, he was shooting for all kinds of pets to be available such as cats, dogs, rabbits, turtles, hamsters and lizards. Fortunately, he didn’t include birds and fish.
Since when did her father change his dreams?
She reached out her arm to see if her father was sick…
Sun Yinian patted away her hand,
I am fine!

Although he said so, she didn’t think he was fine. The real drunks would never admit that they were drunk. Her father seemed worried and sighed from time to time.

I know you are going to ask. I will tell you inside,
he pointed at the store and walked in.
She followed.
Even though the fans were turned on in the rabbit barn, the special smell from rabbit waste was still strong. There were only a few mini lops, Siamese cats, snow hares and hotots. There were around the three or four hundred Yuan price point. The breeding rabbits were all gone.

What is going on? You scared the crap out of me!
she asked.
It was a strange day for her. First, Zhang Zian talked about setting up a membership system for his store. Second, her stubborn father changed his mind.
Was she just having a bad day?

I don’t want to sell those anymore,
her father sighed,
I don’t know. I should’ve known! Pets like rabbits and hamsters are small, cheap, low in profit, difficult to sell and even take a lot of labor to take care of… I just can’t make up my mind to get rid of them. I was hoping they would become popular one day and I could sell them all overnight…Hehe, that was… anyways, finally I see what is the money maker!

Sun Xiaomeng remained silent. Rabbits and hamsters are cute, but they do not have an emotional tie with humans like dogs do. They are also not as pretty as cats. Their only advantage is easy maintenance. However, if someone really wants a pet that is easy to maintain, they probably do not want a pet.
Honestly, her dad was more likely to win the lottery than seeing rabbits and hamsters become popular. Pets like lizards were even less popular.
It was.
He was curious how come her father suddenly understood this.

Sell them all!
her father sounded like he was trying to encourage himself,
our base was too large before. Staff was too busy and sometimes even resigned…in the future, we will focus on cats and dogs exclusively and that will be great!


Dad, is it a money issue?
she asked cautiously,
I have some money saved up. You could…
she was really worried about her father.
Her father stopped her.
It isn’t about money.


What happened?
she asked.
Her father looked at her, bowed down his head and said,
Amazing Fate Pet Shop ordered a bunch of pets. He paid for half and also a 50% deposit for the other half. I sold the breeding rabbits and hamsters which will save some feeding money. Everything comes together. This is the best month in a few years! I want to give the staff some bonus for their hard work…


Wait! Wait! How come Zhang Zian bought more stock? I thought he didn’t sell the pets from last time,
Sun Xiaomeng was totally confused.
Her father said,
Who told you he didn’t sell the inventory from last time? I delivered to his store a few days ago. Everything was gone! His business is doing great! As we were unloading the pets someone bought a Siamese cat. He bought that cat from us for 3000 Yuan, and guess how much he sold it for…

Her father waved his hand and said,
5000! The cat was shipped from our base to his store. It didn’t even get in his shop and he made 2000!


Um…
Sun Xiaomeng remembered Zhang Zian priced a Siamese cat at 4000 Yuan. That wasn’t cheap. She wondered why he raised the price and people continued to buy from him. Were they stupid?
Her father felt this was unfair,
I had the staff move the pets and followed the customer. I asked him if he would like another cat. I will sell a Siamese cat for 4000 yuan.

Her brows furrowed, she criticized her father,
Dad, that’s not right. How could you do that?

Sun Yinian Opened up his eyes, was about to defend himself and sighed,
you know what that guy said? At the beginning, he was interested. He asked if my Siamese cat could do stunts. I was confused. That was the first time I heard cats could do stunts…the customer left without saying anything…

Sun Xiaomeng was shocked. Is Amazing Fate Pet Shop changing its name to Amazing Fate Circus? They could train cats to do stunts?

That’s fate! This kid is going to make big money! Weird things happen sometimes and this year there are a lot of weird things!
her father smiled with jealousy.

Oh!
her father suddenly got excited,
have you heard another weird thing? His store provides cat bathing service. The customer has to bathe their own cat and he charges 300 Yuan for it! He would just sit there and do nothing! He also hired two young kids to help. Money comes too easy for him… Customers paid 300 Yuan, bathed their own cat and thanked him like he did a big favor to them! That was impossible!

Unbelievable! Unbelievable!
Sun Xiaomeng could not be more surprised at those stories from her dad!
It all makes sense now. No wonder Zhang Zian wanted to build a membership system. He had to have a good customer base.
After all, only one thing came to her mind – He was such a big liar!
