Chapter 577: Reward You A Bowl of Dog Food

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

"Okay, let's eat first."

Zhang Zian placed a large plate of fried rice cake on the table. He took a whiff and was satisfied by the scent of the dish. The ingredients included eggs, sausages, onions, cabbage, carrots, etc. The rice cake was easy to fry and was nutritious, and it could be served as either a course or a main food.

He took four bowls and one tray and pulled the fried rice cake into the bowls. Among the four bowls, three bowls contained the same amount of rice cake, while the other one bowl contained a little less rice cake. He was going to take the bowls downstairs and let w.a.n.g Qian, Li Kun and Lu Yiyun taste the rice cake. And the bowl that contained a little less rice cake would be given to Lu Yiyun.

"Woof!"

A dog extended its head from the edge of the table. It was Xiao La who had just been released from the storage room. Its two front paws were resting on the legs of the table and it was drooling at the fried rice cake.

"Xiao La! Go down, Xiao La! Your meal is on the ground."

Zhang Zian pointed to the floor, where there was a food bowl that contained the dog food for Xiao La.

Xiao La turned to look at the dog food, apparently lacking interest in the dog food. And then it continued to hold the table.

At the sight of this situation, Zhang Zian knew that Liu Sanlang and s.h.i.+ s.h.i.+ must have been feeding their own food to Xiao La usually. That was why Xiao La did not like dog food but liked to stay beside the dining table to eat human food.

Maybe he had wronged Liu Sanlang, because Liu Sanlang had asked Zhang Zian how to train a dog. However, he often spent time with s.h.i.+ s.h.i.+, who had definitely indulged Xiao La and allowed it to do whatever it wanted.

The biggest obstacle of dog training was the inconsistency between the dog owners' commands and their att.i.tudes, which would confuse their dogs. This was the very reason Zhang Zian did not recommend Qian Bowen's family to raise a Beagle. Beagles were notoriously difficult to train. If any one of the three family members in Qian Bowen's family became soft-hearted during the training of the Beagle, their previous efforts to train the dog would thus go down the drain.

"Woof!"

Xiao La kept staring at the fried rice cake.

Zhang Zian had already pointed out the position of its food to Xiao La. The right thing to do at this moment was to ignore Xiao La. If it refused to eat the dog food, it would become hungry; and when it was extremely starving, it would naturally eat its dog food. When he kept training it in this way for a few times, the dog's habits would be altered.

Eating dog food on the ground or eating human food on the table was not only a matter of food, but also the matter of status and rank within the family. If dogs ate meals on the table, it meant that the dogs were on an equal footing with the human beings. And dogs would regard human beings as their friends rather than their owners. Even the police officers who went through thick and thin together with the police dogs would not allow the police dogs to eat meals on the table. Therefore, training a dog must start from training it how to take its meals.

In addition, unless the food was specifically prepared for dogs, there were too many taboos for dogs in human food. For example, the onions in the fried rice cake were detrimental to dogs.

Zhang Zian turned a blind eye to Xiao La that was begging to eat the rice cake. After taking three bowls of rice cake to the three people downstairs, he then returned to sit at the table and taste his cooking. Not bad, he thought. Perhaps he could consider becoming a cook in the future.

In the past, his parents required him not to watch his mobile phone or watch TV while taking a meal. However, today's situation was rather special. He was holding his mobile phone to quickly browse the other novels at Qidian. He wanted to learn about the secrets of success from other novels, such as how the introductions and the beginnings of the novels were written, and how the plots were unfolded etc. By the way, he would also look at the comment sections of other books.

The comment sections of the new books of the new authors, who had roughly uploaded the same number of chapters as Pi had, were also empty and deserted. Occasionally, there were a few comments advertising for other books. However, the comment section of Pi's novel was completely empty which did not even contain any advertis.e.m.e.nt.

Should he try and learn how to advertise for Pi's novel? How effective could those advertis.e.m.e.nts be?

Zhang Zian ignored Xiao La who was pacing around agitatedly beneath the table and craving for the rice cake. He picked up a piece of fried rice cake and put it into his mouth. As he swiped his cell phone screen with his finger, the webpage switched to the app of the w.a.n.g Haige Forum, and unexpectedly, he had clicked and entered the web novel exchange section of the forum.

Although a large bowl of chicken soup for the soul had made Pi eliminate its idea of giving up writing the novel, Zhang Zian knew that the problem had not been fixed completely. One day, Pi would be upset and doubt its capacity again because no one read its novel.

In addition, he was very worried because he saw Pi reappear after its disappearance. Had his eyes deceived himself?

When he just took over the pet shop and was equally frustrated because no customers visited his shop, it was the appearance of Galaxy that had reversed his destiny. Galaxy risked injury and collapsed the future of a certain time into reality by letting the first customer enter his pet shop. For Zhang Zian who had been doubting himself, Galaxy's help had made him realize that the tough business he faced was not because he was incompetent, but because his shop had no fame back then.

Now, he decided to do something. Even if he did not have Galaxy's ability, he wanted to try his best to help Pi, just like Galaxy had helped him.

Perhaps because the students had gradually started their winter vacation, the web novel exchange section was quite lively today.

Some people had raised similar questions at the forum.

[Dot]: No one reads the novel I have written, what should I do? Should I advertise in the comment sections of other books?

Someone responded underneath.

[Beast]: I also want to ask this question.

[Little Husky]: I advise you not to waste time on advertising. From my personal experience, advertising is useless. Just concentrate on writing your book, and when you have uploaded enough chapters, the website will recommend you. Even the worst type of recommendation is more useful than advertising for a week.

[Dot]: The problem is my book has never been recommended after signing the contract.

[Little Husky]: There are too many books while there are only a few books that can be recommended at a time. Be patient and wait. You must keep calm to write books.

[Skin G.o.d]: In fact, you cannot make generalizations on this issue. It is useless to advertise in the comment sections of other books, but it is still useful to advertise on the reading lists.

[Puppet]: Yes. In the past, four or five new readers would add my book to their libraries every day. Since my book has been included in a reading list, followed by over 2,000 people, twenty to thirty new readers would add my book to their libraries every day.

There was no follow-up reply to the post for the time being. The feeling was just like a video abruptly ending when the p.o.r.nographic film actress was about to unclasp the last b.u.t.ton on her clothes.

What the h.e.l.l was the reading list?

Zhang Zian read the post again from the beginning and thought that the reading list was worth studying.

He had finished all the rice cake. Although the bowl was not large, rice cake was not easy to digest, and his stomach should be full for a while.

He deliberately put his empty bowl in front of Xiao La, letting it know that he had finished all his food.

Xiao La whimpered ruefully, looked at the empty bowl, and then looked at the dog food on the ground. In its mind, it was struggling on whether it should eat the dog food.

Zhang Zian got up and cleaned his bowl. While he was cleaning, w.a.n.g Qian shouted from downstairs, "Master! Come down! Customers are here, and we can't handle them!"

w.a.n.g Qian and Li Kun had been working in the pet shop for a while, and they should have learnt a lot of things by spending time with Zhang Zian. Coupled with the scrupulous Lu Yiyun, the three of them could easily handle ordinary customers. And the customers they could not cope with were generally those customers with more special requirements.

"Coming! Wait a minute."

Zhang Zian shouted towards downstairs.

He put down the bowl and pointed to the dog food on the ground, indicating Xiao La had no choice but to eat its dog food.

When he arrived on the first floor hurriedly, he saw two men standing in front of the shop. He knew one of them was Lin Qi, but he had never met the other person. But judging from the two luxury cars parked outside the shop, this person was probably also from a wealthy family.
