1038 Communicating with Their Gaze

Despite that the place was only a random stall in the dog market, this bald man working without a license had quite a booming business. After a short while, there was another person bringing cats and dogs to ask him to do the sterilization, and the amount he charged was obviously must lower than that of the official veterinarians. 

The sterilization surgery did not need much skill—even Snowy Lionet could do it—but the official veterinarians needed to pay for rent, electricity, and water, as well as pay their employees, so they could not compete with this kind of street-side stall. 

It was also the first time Zhang Zian found out that there were also people doing this at the dog market. The last time he'd come, there hadn't been anyone doing this. This also proved that China's pet industry was advancing extremely fast. 

The bald roving doctor was quite bright himself, and he would tell the people who came to ask him to do the surgery clearly what kind of price meant what kind of service. If they felt that his skills were not good enough or the place was not clean, they could spend more money to go to the official veterinarians to do it. Wanting to spend less money but still be satisfied in every way—where else would they find that? 

He took out a few very thin rubber sleeves. He used a special tweezer to forcefully expand the rubber sleeve and dipped it into the alcohol, and then he used the alcohol to clean the tip of the young dog's tail. He put the tail into the rubber sleeve and pulled out the tweezer. 

The sleeve sprung back into its original shape and tightly covered the root of the young dog's tail to prevent the circulation of blood. If they sterilized the root of the tail every day, around one or two weeks later, the tail would loosen and fall off because of the flesh spoiling and dying, and the injury would be very small. As long as they sterilized it well enough, there would be no danger of infection. 

Zhang Zian said to Snowy and Hei Zi, "This is called the ligation and abscission method. It's suitable for young animals that have just been born. If they are more than a week old, the nerves in their tails will have started to develop, and they would feel a large amount of pain. But if the dog is too young, you cannot give it anesthetic, and you can't use this kind of method to remove its tail. You need to wait till the dog is at least three months old, and use the circumcision method and anesthetic to remove its tail. There is more skill needed for the circumcision method, and doing it at a roadside stall would be dangerous." 

Circumcision and ligation? The male netizens in the live broadcast room all expressed that their balls hurt because these two methods were the methods that eunuchs in the past had used to cut off their testicles... 

The bald roving doctor seemed to hear his words and raised his head to look at him strangely, thinking that he had met someone doing the same line of work. 

The owner of the Rottweiler waited till all the young dogs' tails had been covered in the rubber sleeve, and only then did he happily take up the cage to leave. 

Hei Zi saw that he could not miss this opportunity. He instantly rushed over to ask, "May I ask, are you selling Rottweilers?" 

That person was stunned and nodded, saying, "I sell them! Why, do you want to buy one?" 

Hei Zi nodded. "Um, do you have slightly larger ones? These few are too small."

"Yes! Follow me! My place's Rottweilers are great. We have big ones and small ones. It's not far from here, and we will reach it in a few steps. Come and take a look. I guarantee that you will be satisfied!" 

That person's tone was welcoming, and he grabbed Hei Zi's arm and wanted to pull him away. 

Hei Zi's clothes were well-fitting, and he was wearing a branded watch that stood out. At first glance, it was obvious that he was rich. 

It was not rare to see rich people coming to the dog market. After all, there were pets sold illegally here—for example, Snowy's relative from a faraway place, Lin Qi, had wanted to buy a wild leopard cat or a Serval last time. 

As for these kinds of dumb customers with a lot of money, of course, one could not reject them. 

Zhang Zian coughed and gave Hei Zi a look to signal to him not to follow. 

Hei Zi was a bright person. If he had not been, he would not have become a top talent in business. When he saw Zhang Zian's look, he knew that there could be some kind of problem here, and so, his expression unchanging, he patted away the person's hand, smiled, and said, "I still have something to do—just leave me a way to contact you." 

The person looked upset and tried to invite Hei Zi again, but Hei Zi directly rejected his invitations, and in the end, he could only add his WeChat and leave angrily. 

When that person had walked off, Hei Zi asked, "Store Manager Zhang, does that person have a problem? Or is it that that person's dog has a problem?" 

Zhang Zian shook his head, "I'm not sure about that. I gave you a look because he gave me a look." 

Saying that, he pointed at the bald roving doctor. 

"Huh?" Hei Zi was very shocked. 

Zhang Zian was also very shocked. After all, he was not related to the bald roving doctor at all, and it was their first time meeting each other. Why was the roving doctor giving him looks to warn him? 

Just now, the owner of the Rottweilers had invited Hei Zi to follow him to see dogs, and Zhang Zian was not against it, because Rottweilers were really suitable guard dogs, and following him to take a look was also good. If he could see any suitable ones, it would have met the requests of Snowy and Hei Zi. However, he'd suddenly noticed the bald roving doctor had stopped his work, moved his eyebrows, and given him a look, and he instantly knew that there was something wrong here. 

The bald roving doctor gave him another look to tell them not to go over and wait until he was done with this sterilization surgery. 

Zhang Zian understood. He did not want to let other people know about what had happened just now. Stopping someone else's business would offend them very easily. 

So he purposely brought Hei Zi and Snowy to walk around, and then he returned to the bald roving doctor and pretended to be a customer asking about the price of the surgery. 

The bald roving doctor just happened to be free, and he opened the thermal flask he had brought to drink some tea. He looked at Zhang Zian up and down and said, "Shopkeeper Zhang of Amazing Fate Pet Shop?" 

Zhang Zian was stunned. "Have we met before?" 

"You've never met me before, but I've seen you on television." The bald roving doctor smiled. "You're a famous person now. There aren't many in the pet industry in Binhai City who haven't heard of you. Appearing on television so often—even though it is the local television—is very good." 

Snowy also felt the glory when she heard it and gave him a thumbs-up. 

Zhang Zian touched his nose, feeling a little embarrassed. He had not thought that he would become so famous unknowingly. 

"Just now..." 

The bald roving doctor interrupted him. "I gave you that look just now because that person's reputation is not good. If you want to follow him over, it'll be tough to leave without your wallet taking a big hit." 

Zhang Zian frowned. "You're saying he forcefully buys and sells?" 

"Yes." The bald-headed doctor laughed. "If you don't believe it, you can go to the next booth and ask. If they dare to tell the truth, they will certainly tell you so. When he meets people who want to buy a Rottweiler, he enthusiastically pulls them to his house. In fact, his house is not even close to here. It's in a nearby village. He has several Rottweilers and other big dogs. As soon as you enter his yard, he closes the door and leads the dogs out to block the door. If you don't pay, you don't get to get away." 

Zhang Zian noticed his words and his expression and felt that he was speaking the truth. Such tactics were quite common. For example, in the computer city in the past, newbies that did not know computers at all were absolutely scammed when they went to buy a computer. If they found out that they'd been scammed and wanted to return the goods, they would be surrounded by a few big men who did not listen to reason at all. Finally, the reputation of the computer city had been totally ruined. 

A few mature Rottweilers were a bigger deterrent than a few big burly men.
