“Because the number of orders you are receiving is increasing every day, there isn’t enough staff here at our storage. We still haven’t sent out all the orders from March 7th. If this continues, the orders will accumulate more and more, and we will be slower at sending them out. The buyers will get impatient, and your business will be affected. This is why you should change a method and quickly rent a storage place. I’ll send you batches of cat food. It will reduce time and energy.”

Huang Shiting had made himself clear. He and his company were too busy to care about sending out her orders. They were going to give her all the cat food at once, and Liu Man would have to take care of the rest.

“Manager Huang, can you please make an exception? I can’t find a place to store the cat food in such a short amount of time,” Even if she did have a place to store the products, she would be the only staff, and she still had to go to school. Who would be there to mail the cat food?

“I’ll give you two days at most. You need to provide me with a specific storage address within today; we’ll stop distributing the products out to the buyers after two days.”

Huang Shiting had already done a lot for Liu Man. Until now, his company had sent out hundreds of packages, but they did not receive a single penny as payment. He was a businessman and not a benefactor. How could he possibly let Liu Man have such a huge advantage?

Where could she get a storage room within two days?

Liu Man felt a bit perplexed. She sent a message to Li Xiaoru, asking her to let the teacher know she was going to be absent.

After Huang Shiting hung up on Liu Man, he felt like his tone was too harsh and was worried he was giving her a hard time. After much consideration, he called Yu Zhan.

Meanwhile, Liu Man had already left school. As she walked along the road outside of her school, she was planning to consult with a real estate agent. At this time, her phone suddenly rang, and the caller ID showed it was from Yu Zhan.

“Don’t worry about getting a storage room. I have one fit for you right now. Come to my pet clinic, and I will bring you there to see if you like it or not.”

Yu Zhan’s call was right in time. Liu Man was too happy to think about why Yu Zhan knew she was looking for a storage room. She hurriedly entered the subway station and headed for Yu Zhan’s pet clinic.

There was no longer a crowd in Yu Zhan’s pet clinic, like how there was before the break. It wasn’t because there wasn’t much business, but because Yu Zhan had put down new rules for reservations.

Body checks: This pet clinic will only body check up to five pets a day; Sterilization: This pet clinic will only sterilize up to two pets a day; Vaccines and infectious disease inspections: This pet clinic will only welcome up to five pets a day; Other treatments: This pet clinic will only treat up to five pets a day.

If you have no pre-reservation, this pet clinic will have no obligations to treat your pet.

But all work related to injections and transfusions would be done by the nurse, and there was no limitation to the number of pets they welcomed every day. There was no limitation to the number of pets they treated that were delivering babies. Of course, there was no limit to the number of pets they treated with sudden, serious diseases, although this rarely happened.

Yu Zhan posted his new rules on Yelp and had an company print out a poster to stick on the walls beside the front desk. Ever since the new protocols got introduced and implemented, the pet clinic suddenly became quiet. Everyone came right on time according to their reservations, and there would no longer be times with long lines of people.

When Liu Man got to Yu Zhan’s pet clinic, he was instructing the inexperienced nurse on vaccinating a Chartreux. The front room that used to be where customers lined up had turned into the transfusion room, “You must use 75% alcohol. Cat’s skin is sensitive to iodine tincture. Don’t use iodine tincture to disinfect cats.” He reminded her seriously.

“The pelt of a cat is different from human skin. Their insides are smooth and soft, so you can’t just inject flatly. Watch me do it first. First, lightly pinch the skin on the back of the cat’s neck so it forms a light wrinkle before you put the needle in. You don’t have to inject it too deeply; the needle just needs to be around 3 to 4 centimeters in.”

The nurse listened attentively and nodded her head. She went to a nursing school for college, but she learned about nursing people instead of animals. This was why Yu Zhan had never let her interfere with his work before.

She had already done two months of work in Yu Zhan’s pet clinic. She learned lots of things by watching him working, so Yu Zhan was starting to teach her more so she could help out.

After being instructed by Yu Zhan, the nurse successfully vaccinated the Chartreux. The owner, standing at one side, smiled as she thanked them.

This was the second time Liu Man watched Yu Zhan work. The first time was when he was inspecting Daylight’s butt at that time.

Yu Zhan got very serious and discreet when he worked, and he ignored his surroundings. He wouldn’t check his phone or get disturbed by the others, for he was responsible for every life on his hands.

The owner of Chartreux said goodbye and left with the cat in her arms. That was when Yu Zhan finally saw Liu Man, who had been watching for a long while. He smiled, “Wait for me, I’ll go change.”

The nurse recognized Liu Man this time, so she greeted her and returned to the front desk to rest.

Liu Man thought Yu Zhan would drive her to the storage place, so she didn’t expect him to say, “The storage room is right next door.”

The buildings on this street were all 6.7 meters tall in size. Most were built and designed, so there were two floors. There was a restaurant right next to the pet clinic, and both floors were for people to have their meals. However, this restaurant never got popular, so the seats never filled up. The owner of this restaurant wanted to rent the second floor out, so someone else would be able to bear the rent with him.

Since the restaurant was right next to the pet clinic, Yu Zhan personally knew the owner.

Yu Zhan had already told the restaurant’s owner beforehand. It wasn’t mealtime right now, and the staff in the restaurant were on break. There was no one in the restaurant, and he led Liu Man straight up to the second floor.

The second floor had an independent entrance, with the staircase on the left-hand side of the front doors. The area of the second floor was as big as the second floor of the pet clinic; it was 100 square meters in size. Because no walls were acting as separators, it looked like there was lots of space. There were ten tables and chairs in the room.

Liu Man walked around the room, opened the windows, and was satisfied with the view. It was close to Yu Zhan and close to her house. If anything happened, she would be able to come here quickly.

“How much is the rent?” This was the question Liu Man cared about most.

“Fourteen-thousand, though it’s sixteen-thousand to the public.”

In comparison to the rent prices around the neighborhood, fourteen-thousand was an adequate price. Besides, this place was very large in the area.

But Liu Man still felt like it was too expensive. Yu Zhan saw her hesitation and said, “If you are unsatisfied, we can go look somewhere else.”

“That’s all right, this is good enough,” Liu Man sighed, “It’s so hard to start a business.”

Yu Zhan couldn’t help but laughed, “Everything seems hard at the beginning, but it will get better.”

Yu Zhan quickly contacted the restaurant’s owner here to sign the contract. The owner’s last name was Wang, and he was around forty-years-old. Seeing that the renter was such a young girl, he seemed a bit surprised as he asked, “What are you going to do with this space?”
