If Zhang Zian wasn’t in this line of work, but an ordinary person who suddenly wanted to keep a pet and didn’t know much about pets, he might really be shocked by the girl in red. However, as long as he had a little understanding, he would know that in the current domestic pet market, the so-called certificate was actually … A very awkward existence.

The CFA certification could be registered for tens of dollars without any restrictions. You could register even if you didn’t have a cat. It was a non-governmental organization in itself. After registration, you could call it a regular cattery. Then, if this regular cattery gave birth to four kittens, they could have a certificate, regardless of their appearance, whether they had genetic defects, whether they had congenital diseases, and even if they were not registered personal sellers, they could buy certificates for the kittens. After all, there was the all-purpose Taobao.

Certificates were something that relied on self-awareness. The domestic business environment was generally eager for quick success and instant profit. People wanted to make quick money. If there were self-aware sellers, even if the cat did not have an id, the cat itself would be fine. If there were tricky sellers, even if the cat itself had an id, you would not know if there was a problem with the cat.

“A certificate, right? Wait a moment, I’ll go get it. ” Zhang Zian walked to the cashier and asked Lu Yiyun to take out a stack of certificates from the drawer and show them to the girl in red,”here, the CFA registration certificate.”

The girl in red and the other customers were stunned.

“You … You’re the owner of this shop? Pretending to be an ordinary customer, you’re just trying to be a shill!” The girl in red had a deceived expression on her face, as if she would fly into a rage out of humiliation at any moment.

“When did I say that I was an ordinary customer? I’ve just returned from the outside. Is the shop owner going to stick a piece of paper on his head and write the word ‘shop owner’?” Zhang Zian asked.

The girl in red was still in a fit of anger. The other customers had already come over to look at the certificate in Zhang Zian’s hand carefully. After all, ordinary people had never seen the so-called CFA certificate. It was a good opportunity to broaden their horizons.

“Your certificate is fake, right? Did you buy it from Taobao?” Her attack was immediately directed at the certificate itself.

“You also know that you can buy certificates on Taobao? But you just said that there’s a big difference between having a certificate and not having one. If such an important certificate can be bought with money, then is it still important?” Zhang Zian said to the other customers,”in our shop, only the Ragdoll and Abyssinian cats have the CFA certificate. Although the other cats don’t have the certificate, they have no health problems. You can sign the sales agreement.”

“Why don’t the other cats have a certificate?” a customer asked.

...

“Only Abyssinian cats are bred in this store. Ragdolls and other cats are not bred in this store, and the other cats themselves are cheaper, so additional registration certificates will increase the price by a lot. It’s like when you go to Computer City to buy digital products, there is one price with an invoice, and there is another price without an invoice …” Zhang Zian explained.

The boy who had spoken earlier obviously knew more about digital products than cats. He immediately nodded in agreement and said,””Yes, yes! It’s only a few thousand Yuan, so there’s no difference of a few hundred Yuan without an invoice. ”

Zhang Zian laughed.”I’m not encouraging you to buy things without invoices. You’ll save money without an invoice, but the country will have less tax, and it may affect the product’s warranty.”

The boy blushed and laughed awkwardly.

“Cats are different from digital products. Most of the money for the CFA certificate goes into the CFA Association. The CFA doesn’t care if your cat has any problems. I think if there is no problem with the cat itself, there is no need to get a certificate. Let the profit be given to the consumers, the customers can save money, and it does not affect the after-sales of the cat in our store … The quality and health of a cat should not be determined by a certificate. ”

A high-quality Ragdoll was worth at least 10000 to 20000 Yuan. An additional few hundred Yuan for a certificate was nothing. People who wanted to buy a Ragdoll would not care about the additional few hundred Yuan. However, for pet cats that were generally worth two to three thousand Yuan, an additional few hundred Yuan was an additional burden on the customers. The key was that the certificate itself had no binding force. It was not endorsed by the manufacturer and the country like an invoice.

Even the certificate officially issued by the CFA for cats could only prove some of the cat’s birth information, such as parents and nest number. In other words, it was a cat’s studbook, which had nothing to do with the cat’s health and appearance. It was impossible for the CFA to go door to door to check.

The girl in red carefully looked at the certificate in Zhang Zian’s hand. She couldn’t tell whether it was real or fake. Seeing that Zhang Zian’s words had gained the approval of several customers, after all, for ordinary customers, the price was definitely a sensitive factor when choosing a pet. She quickly changed the topic, pointed to the kittens on the ground, and said,””A regular cattery would not allow customers to come to the door like your shop. What if the cats are scared?”

“I think I’ve heard of it too.” A bespectacled girl interjected in a low voice,”wasn’t he not allowed to go out a while ago? I’ve been looking at Weibo for a few weeks, but I can’t make up my mind. First, the famous catteries on Weibo are too expensive, and second, I sent private messages to these catteries asking if I could visit them to see their cats and choose their cats. All the answers were No. They said that only those who could visit the regular cattery could visit the cats. ”

The red-shirted girl thought that the bespectacled girl agreed with her and was about to be happy, but the bespectacled girl continued,””But I still feel uneasy if I don’t see the cat with my own eyes. I want to raise a Ragdoll, a Ragdoll that costs tens of thousands of dollars. I have to pay a deposit just by looking at the photos and videos. Sometimes, even if I don’t want it, the deposit can’t be refunded. This … No one’s money comes from nowhere. It’s a little risky to choose a cat through videos …”

“You don’t understand!” The girl in red interrupted him rudely,”the cats in the regular cattery are free-range, whether they are big cats or small cats, they are free to play in the house. If anyone can just come in and see, what if they scare the kittens or infect them with the cat plague?” Kittens are sensitive and fragile, and people who really love cats definitely don’t want to scare them!”

“But aren’t the cats in this shop free-range?” The boy pointed to the kittens in the Pet Shop and raised an objection. He might have come here with the girl in glasses. He had long found the girl in red unpleasant to the eye and felt that her tone was too arrogant.

The girl in red was stunned for a moment before she argued,””It’s not good because of this. Anyone can come to their door and these kittens are running around. What if these kittens are infected with the cat plague?”

The reason why the girl in red was difficult to deal with was that she had a sharp tongue, and her words were always about the cat. This meant that if they retorted, they would easily fall into a moral trap and be labeled as “don’t love cats”,”unscrupulous cat dealer”, and so on.

But what was the status of a person? Consumers were gods in other places, but they had to be humble in front of cattery?

The words of the girl in red were all deliberately created by the cattery to suppress their peers. As long as they were analyzed rationally, they would not hold any ground.
