Chapter 398: Chapter 203: Love Story
2:00 PM.
The office of the Miaomiao House Pet Cat Breeding Center.
Yang Han sat on the sofa, leaning forward with his fingers interlaced over his thighs.
An astonishing light flickered in his eyes, his gaze, tinged with excitement, fixed on the man sitting across from him.
He truly felt that he had met Lin Shen too late.
After chatting for a while, they discovered that their perspectives and ideas were astonishingly aligned!
While most people considered the domestic pet industry a difficult business, a fiercely competitive red ocean.
But Lin Shen and Yang Han both believed it was actually a massive blue ocean!
Because those other people just hadn’t found the right approach!
"Most consumers generally believe that owning a pet is a particularly expensive affair. We even have the bizarre phenomenon of cat litter costing more than rice."
Lin Shen spoke eloquently, expressing his views in a gentle tone.
"Therefore, to gain a firm foothold in the pet industry, the first step is to lower prices and expand into the lower-tier market."
"But that’s very difficult."
Yang Han said in a low voice.
"It’s impossible to raise a healthy and beautiful pet at a low cost. Their constitution is so much weaker than a human’s; they can get sick or run a fever at the slightest oversight."
"That’s because most people don’t know how to raise pets. They buy one on a whim, thinking that feeding it and giving it water is all there is to it. They don’t even understand what their pet’s reactions mean."
Lin Shen offered his solution.
"That’s why I plan to establish a nationwide online platform for pet communities. It will allow pet lovers to communicate with each other, share their experiences, and create a harmonious community where humans and pets can coexist!"
"..."
Yang Han’s eyes flew wide open, a chill shooting straight up his spine to the top of his head.
Because Lin Shen’s ideas were a perfect match for his own goals!
To drive the development of the pet industry with emerging technologies!
"I think you’re absolutely right!"
Yang Han pushed up the frame of his glasses, so excited that he shot to his feet.
"I never thought, Boss Lin, that you’d have this kind of idea too!"
"So what are your thoughts?"
The corners of Lin Shen’s mouth curved up slightly. He leaned forward, his gentle words guiding and enticing.
"How about we make this dream a reality together?"
"Of course! No problem!"
Yang Han understood the principle that kindred spirits are hard to find. That, combined with their two hours of engrossing conversation, had long since made him want to build something great with Lin Shen.
"What do you need me to do?"
"First, sign a contract with me."
Lin Shen said, half-joking.
"Don’t forget, I originally just came here to acquire your pet breeding center."
"Look at me, what was I thinking?"
Yang Han slapped his forehead in frustration, then immediately started rummaging behind his desk and pulled out a thick stack of documents.
"These are all the compliance documents for my center. Take a look."
"Okay."
Lin Shen gave them a brief look.
CFA cattery registration, TICA certification, CAA pedigree certificates for each breeding cat, and so on.
The documents were all in order.
This made Lin Shen nod in satisfaction. He then smiled and said,
"Very good. Why don’t we just sign the transfer agreement now?"
"Sure. I’ll go get it ready. Please wait a moment."
Yang Han left the office and returned over ten minutes later, holding another stack of documents.
"This is the land transfer contract. Take a look. Do we need to get it notarized?"
"No need."
Lin Shen waved his hand dismissively, which warmed Yang Han’s heart. He felt that although Lin Shen was young, he had a very magnanimous way of doing things.
Of course, what he didn’t know was that Lin Shen’s trust in him came entirely from the industry analysis provided by GoGo Maps.
The keyword he had searched for, "honest business practices," was specifically to prevent getting scammed.
Therefore, Lin Shen only gave the contract a cursory glance, just going through the motions before preparing to sign.
This, in turn, startled Yang Han.
"You’re agreeing just like that?"
"What else?"
Lin Shen looked up, his expression perfectly relaxed.
"It’s only eight million, not eighty million."
"..."
Those words left Yang Han speechless.
His own family was quite wealthy, with assets in the eight-figure range.
But his family definitely couldn’t toss around eight million as casually as Lin Shen just did.
’You’d probably need assets in the hundreds of millions to be this casual, right?’
Yang Han couldn’t help but become curious about Lin Shen’s background.
"Is your family also in the pet industry?"
"The pet industry is something I wanted to do myself."
After signing his name on the contract, Lin Shen smiled and handed the second copy back to Yang Han.
"My family is supportive. They’ve provided a lot of connections and resources."
"That’s great!"
Yang Han took the document and asked tentatively,
"How many installments do you plan to pay in?"
"Hmm..."
Lin Shen considered for a moment, then held up three fingers.
Seeing this, Yang Han breathed a sigh of relief.
’Three years? That’s quite short.’
"Three, two, one..."
?
Lin Shen’s countdown made Yang Han freeze. Before he could even react, his phone buzzed with a notification from Construction Bank about an incoming transfer.
An eight followed by six zeroes!
Huh?
Yang Han’s heart skipped a beat. He pulled out his phone and stared at it again and again, even rubbing his eyes. After confirming there were indeed six zeroes, he looked at Lin Shen, his face a mask of shock.
"You paid in full? Just like that?"
"Does eight million even need to be paid in installments?"
Lin Shen’s rhetorical question left Yang Han speechless, once again stunned by his sheer extravagance.
’This guy throws money around like it’s paper!’
Eight million, paid just like that, without a moment’s hesitation.
"You’re unreal."
Yang Han honestly couldn’t think of a word to describe Lin Shen, so he could only sigh from the bottom of his heart and give him the highest praise one man can give another—a thumbs-up.
"I’m impressed. Seriously."
"It’s just business. Integrity is what matters."
