425: Chapter 425 A Complete Waste of Time! Su Yang Actually Switched Sides at the Last Minute!
Chapter 425: Working for Nothing! Su Yang Actually Defects at the Last Moment!
"Hello, I'm Su Yang, Sister Qin Shuang's friend!"
Su Yang smiled and took the initiative to reach out his hand.
The other party stood up quickly, tidied her hair, and then hurriedly shook his hand, saying, "I'm Tian Weining, the owner of this pet hospital!"
Su Yang could tell that the other party seemed a bit... nervous!
Was his presence really that strong?

He glanced at Tian Weining's hands; there were many scratches on them.
Some were scarred over, while others were fresh.
Letting go of Tian Weining's hand, Qin Shuang eagerly pulled a chair over for Su Yang. "Sit down and let's talk!"
"Alright!"
Tian Weining personally poured a glass of hot water for Su Yang and Qin Shuang.
The other two female employees took the initiative to greet Qin Shuang and sized up Su Yang curiously.
"Weining, Su Yang looks very young, but he's a real big boss!" Qin Shuang took the hot water and introduced him with a smile. "His business has even reached outside the province, and he bought a detached villa at Lu Lake."
"Oh!"
Tian Weining looked at Su Yang with some surprise.
Not just her, but the eyes of the other two female employees in the shop changed when they looked at Su Yang!
To be able to buy a villa at Lu Lake, he must be a wealthy person with assets worth hundreds of millions.
"I didn't expect President Su's business to be so large!"
At this point, Tian Weining didn't dare to look down on Su Yang because of his age!
Su Yang said modestly, "It's just good luck!"
"Doing business requires more than just luck!"
Having opened a shop, Tian Weining knew very well how difficult doing business was—at least for her!
"Mm."
Su Yang nodded.
Tian Weining asked curiously, "Has President Su worked in the pet industry?"
"If humans count as pets, then I have!"
Qin Shuang and Tian Weining couldn't help but laugh, as did the other two female employees.
After laughing, Tian Weining's mood lightened, and she gradually revealed her thoughts.
"Sister Qin Shuang, don't try to persuade me anymore. Many people have been trying to persuade me lately..."
Qin Shuang turned to Su Yang for help. "Su Yang, pet hospitals should be able to make money, right?"
"They can!"
Su Yang nodded seriously.
But before Qin Shuang could get happy, he changed the subject. "But it depends on who's doing it!"
"How so?"
"Can I call you Sister Tian?"
"Sure!"
"If it's done according to Sister Tian's style, you won't make much money!" Su Yang said very bluntly. "I estimate Sister Tian's monthly profit doesn't exceed twenty thousand!"
Qin Shuang looked at Tian Weining in surprise. Tian Weining nodded helplessly. "Calculated over a year, it really doesn't exceed twenty thousand. It feels like it's not even as good as going to a factory to screw in bolts, and I have no days off all year, only resting for a few days during the New Year... But how did you know?"
Su Yang explained casually, "Sister Qin Shuang asked me to take a look for you, so I did some serious homework. Sister Qin Shuang also told me some things about how you run the shop. I just took a random guess, and I didn't expect to be right!"
"To be able to guess that is also very impressive!"
Tian Weining now fully recognized Su Yang's ability; someone who could guess another person's shop's profit was no ordinary person!
The smile on Qin Shuang's lips couldn't be suppressed; she felt it gave her a lot of face.
It seemed Su Yang valued her a lot!
Qin Shuang asked Tian Weining in confusion, "But isn't an income of nearly twenty thousand a month quite good?" Su Yang reminded her, "Don't forget the investment. Pet medical equipment is very expensive, and it starts to age in two or three years!"
"A DR machine for X-rays costs 170,000 yuan, a color ultrasound machine costs 300,000 yuan. B-ultrasound machines, CT scanners, examination tables, operating tables, anesthesia machines, ECG machines, ventilators, blood analyzers, urine analyzers, biochemical analyzers... I couldn't afford the high-end ones for these, but I spent over a million in total!" Tian Weining recited these equipment names like a mantra, then sighed, "Anyway, once the equipment needs replacing, I've worked for two years for nothing!"
Qin Shuang was silenced by Tian Weining's words!
Tian Weining asked, "Then do you have any suggestions?"
"You've already done quite well!" Su Yang shook his head and said, "But if you can't change yourself, then you'd better transfer the shop!"
The other party was a good person with a moral attribute of 80 and was Qin Shuang's friend, which was why he said that.
"Compassion does not command soldiers, and righteousness does not manage wealth." Although this saying is slightly biased, it's not without reason.
Qin Shuang had mentioned to Su Yang that when she first came to this pet hospital for treatment, she felt Tian Weining's fees were very reasonable. She wanted to buy calcium tablets for her pet cat to supplement its calcium and support Tian Weining's business!
As a result, Tian Weining said Qin Shuang's cat didn't look like it lacked calcium. If she really wanted to supplement it, just adding a bit of fish meal or bone meal to the cat food would be enough...
Pet hospitals indeed have a market, but having a market doesn't mean being able to make money.
Tian Weining was clearly the type who couldn't make money!
She was completely working for nothing for the employees and the landlord, working hard every day without even taking a salary!
Hearing Su Yang's words, Tian Weining forced a smile. "What you said makes a lot of sense!"
Qin Shuang secretly pinched Su Yang, but Su Yang didn't care at all.
This woman didn't understand business; she wasn't even very good at collecting rent.
Before Qin Shuang could speak, a man's energetic voice came from behind Su Yang: "This young brother is right, Weining is indeed not suited for business!"
Su Yang turned around and saw a man in his thirties, also wearing glasses and a black trench coat.
The man very proactively reached out his hand to Su Yang and said, "Hello, I'm Luo Chen, Weining's boyfriend!"
"Hello, I'm Su Yang!"
Su Yang smiled and shook the other's hand.
Luo Chen pulled over a chair and sat next to Su Yang. "I've also been trying to persuade Weining to transfer the shop. Her personality is indeed not suited for business."
Tian Weining glanced at Luo Chen, propped her head with her hand, and gently twirled a gel pen in her hand.
She didn't seem to want to pay much attention to her boyfriend.
"Pet hospitals are inherently difficult to run!" Su Yang said with a smile. "Even listed leading companies are losing money. Sister Tian has done quite well to reach this level."
"Weining has loved cats and dogs since she was a child. That's how she and I met!"
Luo Chen looked at his girlfriend tenderly, but Tian Weining just rolled her eyes at him.
"If you like it, you can just be a veterinarian. There's no need to be the boss!" Su Yang took a sip of warm water and said, "A steady income every month, and you don't have to worry too much!"
Luo Chen nodded repeatedly. "Exactly! Exactly! Being a regular veterinarian is quite good!"
At this moment, Luo Chen felt Su Yang was very agreeable!
Qin Shuang lowered her head helplessly. She had asked Su Yang to come and persuade Tian Weining to stay, but Su Yang had actually defected at the last moment!
But she also felt now that perhaps Tian Weining should leave.
Working all year round without making much money was indeed too pitiful!
She could never endure such hardship!
Thinking about it briefly, she realized Tian Weining indeed stayed at the pet shop almost every day.
Su Yang glanced at Qin Shuang and asked, "Is Sister Tian opening a pet shop here because she lives nearby?"
"Mm."
Tian Weining nodded.
"After transferring the pet hospital, do you still plan to be a veterinarian?"
"I suppose so!" Tian Weining thought for a moment and said, "This is the only thing I'm good at now, and I like it very much!"
"Then if you want to transfer the pet hospital, you can consider me!" Su Yang shrugged helplessly. "Sister Qin Shuang brought me here to persuade you to stay... but I seem to have messed it up!"
Tian Weining looked at the two with interest, feeling that the relationship between them seemed unusual!"}],
