Text: (Anti-theft set to 70%) (Main story completed)
Mu Ling, living on a rural planet, inherited a zoo left to her by a great-aunt she had never met.
In the interstellar era, alien bea...
Chapter 115
Mu Ling didn't know that another organization had set its sights on the war beasts in their park.
After finishing the work for the day, Mu Ling squatted in the animal house and reflected quietly.
Her mind was full of what had happened during the day.
I have to say that although the incident during the day was finally resolved, it was a very lucky resolution. If their car had not happened to pass by today and caught up with the person who was diving, and if it had not been broadcast live, leaving those people with no way to argue, there is no telling how this matter would have developed in the end.
Mu Ling is still scared when she thinks about it now. She lay beside Qilin, buried her face in Qilin's neck hair, and refused to come out.
When Xiang Bie found Mu Ling, he saw that the girl had pushed Qilin into the corner.
The golden tiger leaned its head against the crack in the wall, feeling somewhat at a loss, because Mu Ling's head was right in front of its neck. It was obviously extremely sleepy, but it had to keep its neck upright, and it couldn't even change its position and lie down.
Xiang Bie stood at the door and just watched.
It was not until an unknown amount of time had passed that the little head buried in the golden tiger's neck slowly turned around, as if it had noticed something. The girl looked at the man at the door of the glass house with her watery eyes.
"Brother Xiang..." Mu Ling called out weakly, then slowly straightened up and sat there cross-legged.
Qilin saw that Mu Ling had finally retreated. The big tiger shook its head, then lowered its head, began to stroke its neck hair, and licked its paws.
Xiang Bie brought a bag over and sat on the steps in front of Mu Ling: "Did you miss dinner?"
Mu Ling's mouth was flattened into an inverted bracket. She said sullenly, "I'm not hungry."
Xiang Bie handed her the bag, which contained a sandwich and a carton of milk.
Mu Ling didn't want to eat, so she lowered her head and picked at her fingers.
Xiang Bie opened the sandwich package, sorted it out, and handed it to her mouth.
Mu Ling finally took it, took a bite, and chewed it listlessly.
Xiang Bie put the straw in the milk again and placed it next to her, saying, "This has never happened before. I've learned from this experience and I hope it won't happen again next time."
"But how can we guarantee it won't happen again?" Mu Ling looked at Brother Xiang. "Ultimately, this incident is due to inadequate surveillance in our park. We weren't able to find out immediately when something happened, and even after we did, we couldn't resolve it immediately. This is both fatal."
Just like Mu Ling said before, the best surveillance system in the park is holographic surveillance, which can completely cover every blade of grass and tree in the entire jungle, but the starting price of that thing is 100 million.
One hundred million, not counting maintenance, the starting price is one hundred million!
Mu Ling hasn’t even paid back the loan for the second service area yet!
What’s more, one hundred million!
Xiang Bie frowned and looked at her: "Don't put too much pressure on yourself. You came in September and it's December now. You've only been here for three months. You've already done enough."
Mu Ling took another bite of the sandwich and said nothing.
In fact, the surveillance in the park has been greatly improved. For example, each shuttle bus is equipped with five cameras in the front, back, left, right and center. Staff members are also required to wear work recorders when they are at work. They can ensure that there are surveillance videos wherever there are tourists. But even so, they still didn't capture anything when the man jumped into the water to avoid the camera today.
To be frank, these surveillance systems are too rigid and it is easy to avoid them. The best is holographic surveillance.
Mu Ling really wants holographic surveillance!!!
It took her half an hour to finish the last sandwich. After finishing it, Mu Ling fell down again and rested her head on Qilin's back.
Qilin was about to fall asleep, but was woken up again by the pressure.
The golden tearing tiger turned its head and glanced at the human on its back. It went over and licked Mu Ling's hair, then lay on its side, letting the human rest his head on its softer belly.
Mu Ling was going to sleep at Qilin's place tonight. Xiang Bie talked to her for a while and then left.
All the way back to the duty room on the second floor, Wei Li was making the bed. Seeing Brother Xiang coming back, he asked, "Brother Xiang, how is the director?"
Xiang Bie pursed his lips: "I'm feeling very low."
"Ah." Wei Li only learned about the incident afterwards. He said, "It's really unlucky to encounter something like this. And we still don't know whether those people are just committing common fraud or have other motives. I feel their background is quite suspicious. I've told the police and asked them to conduct a thorough investigation."
Xiang Bie hummed, lowered his head and began to fiddle with his computer.
Seeing that Brother Xiang didn't look very energetic, Wei Li stopped talking and continued to help him make the bed.
Xiang Bie was looking at a photo of a flat-footed ape when he was looking at the light computer.
After looking at it for a while, he exited the album and clicked on the group called "People in the Garden Who Love Each Other".
Category: [[Flat-footed ape eating.jpg][Flat-footed ape sleeping.jpg][Flat-footed ape scratching.jpg]@Ms. Rou.]
At this time, people in the group were chatting about what happened in the Beak Zoo today. Xiang Bie suddenly appeared and posted several photos of flat-footed orangutans, which immediately attracted everyone's attention.
Lieutenant Herman: [Wow, is this Yuanyuan from @Ms. Rou's family? She's so tall!]
Ms. Fang: [@Ms. Rou, Ms. Rou, come and get your baby's handsome photos.]
Commander Duan: [@Xiang Bie, Teacher Xiang, did today's incident cause any impact on the zoo?]
Item: [None.]
Commander Duan: [@Xiangbie, that's good that there's nothing. @Ms. Rou, your Yuanyuan's photo is finally here, come and see it.]
Lieutenant Colonel Song: [It actually has double doors, and it's 1.9 meters tall. @Ms. Rou really wasn't bragging, hahaha.]
Colonel Val: [@Ms. Rou is still not here? @Ms. Rou really hasn't appeared since the day she joined the group. Is she on a mission?]
Admiral Wen Shu sent a voice message: "I guess he's busy, so Mr. Xiang, are there no photos of my King Kong today?"
Colonel Val: [@Xiangbie, Teacher, is our Qilin here today? ]
Lieutenant Hermann: [@Xiangbie, teacher, lightning it...]
Commander Duan: [@Xiangbie, teacher, magic it...]
Category: […shooting tomorrow.]
Commander Duan: [Thank you @Xiangbie Teacher! May good people live a peaceful life!]
Lieutenant Hermann: [Thank you, Mr. Xiangbie. May you live a happy life!]
Ms. Fang: [Thank you @Xiangbie Teacher, may good people have a smooth life! ]
Colonel Val: [Thank you @Xiangbie teacher, good people will be strong throughout their lives! ]
Lieutenant Colonel Song: [Thank you @Xiangbie Teacher, good people will always find love! ]
Admiral Wen Shu sent another voice message: "Thank you, Mr. Xiang. Good people will never die."
Category: "..."
At this time, Ms. Rou, who had not appeared before, finally showed up!
Ms. Rou: [!!! Thank you @Xiangbie teacher, I'm so satisfied to see Yuanyuan's photo!]
Ms. Rou: [Thank you all for your comments. I saw it and I’m so happy today!]
Lieutenant Colonel Song: [Haha, just be happy. @Ms. Rou, you're pretty good at holding back. If I were you, I'd be asking for pictures in the group every day from the day I joined.]
Lieutenant Herman: [@Ms. Rou, I'm still a little hesitant.]
Ms. Fang: [@Ms. Rou, don't be too reserved. We all get along well, and it's nice to chat with each other from time to time.]
Ms. Rou: [Okay, okay. Haha, I might bother you all more often in the future!]
After all, Yuanyuan was willing to send this photo to her, which meant that he had accepted her into the group. Then she didn't have to spy on them secretly, but could mingle in it openly!
In the presidential villa of the capital star, Xiang Rou, who is middle-aged and has many traces of time in the corners of her eyes, is still well-maintained overall. She leans on the velvet mattress with a satisfied smile on her face.
Click on those three photos, and you will see a black shadow next to the flat-footed orangutan when he is sleeping. That shadow should be Yuanyuan!
When the flat-footed orangutan scratches himself, there is a pair of feet in the lower right corner, and those must be round feet!
When the flat-footed ape was eating, a hand holding a banana was captured in the upper left corner of the camera, and the fingers were obviously round.
After piecing things together, Xiang Rou realized that the Yuanyuan of today was a Yuanyuan with hands, feet and a shadow. How great!
Xiang Rou looked at her nephew's body parts with satisfaction.
At this moment, two "beep" sounds were heard, and the private chat in the background rang.
Xiang Rou retreated to the backstage, but was suddenly stunned.
The person who sent her a private message was none other than Yuanyuan!
Fingers couldn't help but tremble. Xiang Rou took a deep breath and quickly clicked on the message.
Category: [Click to pay VIP to unlock more HD videos and pictures of flat-footed apes. ]
Xiang Rou: “…”
A big doubt suddenly appeared in Xiang Rou's small eyes.
Pay...VIP?
Nephew asked her to pay for VIP?
Oh, I see. My nephew is short of money.
How come this brat suddenly found his conscience and was willing to accept her!
Shaking her head helplessly and indulgently, Xiang Rou typed with a smile.
Ms. Rou: [How much?]
Item: [One hundred million.]
Xiang Rou: “…”
Xiang Rou: “……………………”
Ms. Rou: [Get lost!]
What a rotten kid, he asked for 100 million right away, why didn’t he just rob him? Even gorillas are more humane than him!
The close relationship between the aunt and niece was gone in an instant, and the atmosphere of reunion that had just been established disappeared into thin air.
Xiang Rou hesitated between turning off the computer and asking questions. In the end, she continued typing while cursing: [What do you need so much money for!]
Five seconds later, the system prompted: (Ms. Rou withdrew this reply).
Item: [I have money in my card. Can you help me withdraw it? I can’t. I don’t have permission.]
System prompts: (This reply has been withdrawn).
Ms. Rou: [So why do you want so much money? Did you get scammed out of 100 million through online dating?]
Cancel.
Category: […No.]
Cancel.
Ms. Rou: [If I touch your account, it would be easy for someone to target me. I can give you the money, but I need to go through the proper procedures. Later, I will donate 100 million to your zoo in someone else's name. Of course, large donations also have to go through tax procedures, so your zoo director and finance department will definitely know about it. You have to deal with them.]
Cancel.
Item: [Well, just give it to the zoo.]
Cancel.
The two of them cancelled each other's messages after chatting for a long time, but only the first two sentences remained in the chat box.
This kind of vigilance is also because they are afraid that someone will discover this conversation in the future. However, the "one hundred million" mentioned by Xiang Bie before is also very strange, so they have to forge a chat record.
Item: [Sorry, typo, it's one hundred.]
Ms. Rou: [I knew it! You surprised me. Deal! [Transfer 100 Interstellar Coins]! Top-up successful. Here are some more photos of my nephew!]
Item: [[Picture][Picture][Picture]]
Xiang Rou immediately clicked on the three new pictures and saw that they were still pictures of the flat-footed ape, but appearing in the picture with the flat-footed ape was also a cool and clean young man.
The young man was wearing a simple zoo work suit and looked very approachable. He was completely different from the glorious marshal of the past.
As Xiang Rou watched, she felt a little sour in her heart.
Stroking the young man on the screen, Xiang Rou sighed deeply and started typing again.
Ms. Rou: [I like to read it and post it frequently.]
Category: […Hmm.]
At this point, all private chats are over.
Wei Li had already made the bed by this time.
Xiang Bie turned off the computer, stood up and walked to the window.
From his angle, he couldn't see Mu Ling downstairs, but he still looked in that direction with deep eyes and a slight smile on his lips.
-
Mu Ling didn't know that Xiang Bie secretly prepared a 100 million surprise for her.
Mu Ling worried about the surveillance issue all night. The next day, she contacted an old friend whom she hadn't contacted for a long time - Lawyer Xu, with the mentality of giving it a try.
Four months ago, it was this lawyer Xu who contacted Mu Ling and told her that an aunt whom she had never met had left her a zoo. He then took Mu Ling to complete all the relevant procedures.
Mu Ling contacted Lawyer Xu today to ask if she could use the zoo as collateral before she completely took over the zoo.
The previous procedures stated that Mu Ling needed to run the zoo for three years before she could obtain all the property rights of the zoo, but Mu Ling now wanted to build holographic surveillance, so she wanted to ask if she could use the other half of the undeveloped land in Beak Jungle to borrow some money from the bank first.
That half of the land is just sitting there idle. Even if Mu Ling runs the zoo for three years, it is estimated that it will not be possible to develop that part within ten years. It is useless now anyway. It would be great if we could buy a holographic surveillance system that is urgently needed right now!
After the call was connected, Mu Ling first exchanged pleasantries with Lawyer Xu with a smile, and then carefully got to the point.
When Lawyer Xu on the other end of the line heard that Mu Ling wanted to take out a loan, he was silent for a moment and then asked, "How much do you want to borrow?"
Mu Ling stammered, "One, one hundred million..."
Lawyer Xu: “…”
Lawyer Xu really didn't expect her to be so bold in bidding.
Mu Ling blushed a little herself: "Nine, ninety million is fine..."
Lawyer Xu: “…”
Why don’t you go to heaven!
But in the end, Lawyer Xu did not directly refuse, but said: "Let me ask."
Oh my god, can I really ask this? Mu Ling was very surprised: "Is it possible?"
Lawyer Xu didn't say anything final: "Beek Zoo should be a key observation target of the federal government now. Many high-ranking government officials are paying attention to your war beasts. I think we should be able to talk about it."
Lawyer Xu asked Mu Ling to wait and said he would get back to her later. After hanging up the phone, Lawyer Xu called a private number.
It took a long while before the call was connected. A solemn and dignified middle-aged man's voice came from the other end: "Hello."
Lawyer Xu immediately said, "Hello, Chairman Bai. I'm Xu Feng, the lawyer in charge of the transfer of ownership of your mother, Ms. Bai's Beek Zoo."
Chairman Bai on the other end of the line seemed to think for a moment, then asked, "What's the matter?"
Lawyer Xu told Mu Ling about her needs, and then said, "You said before that if Ms. Mu has any needs, she must report to you as soon as possible. From her tone, she seems quite anxious. I think the other half of the Beak Jungle cannot be developed in a short period of time. In this case, the land can indeed be temporarily used for other purposes. If you agree, I will talk to the bank for her. Of course, the details will depend on your opinion first."
"No." Chairman Bai flatly refused.
Lawyer Xu was stunned, and then felt a little bitter.
Chairman Bai is the only son of his mother, Ms. Bai. Logically, all of Ms. Bai's inheritance should have been inherited by Chairman Bai. However, Ms. Bai gave a primitive jungle whose land alone was worth over ten billion to her niece. Although they are still a family after all, it was Chairman Bai's own interests that were lost.
After all, he is a businessman and must be very sensitive to such things. Even if Ms. Mu would never go to the Bai family to argue for anything, Chairman Bai probably dislikes her.
Thinking back to three months ago, after signing all the formalities with Ms. Mu, Chairman Bai specifically asked his secretary to tell him that he must notify him immediately if Ms. Mu has any needs in the future.
Now it seems that this just means that we need to know the movements of this cousin's niece at all times so as to strangle her.
Lawyer Xu felt a little regretful and was about to say, "Sorry for disturbing you," and then hung up the call.
Then they heard another voice: "The Beek Jungle cannot be mortgaged, not even a cent or an inch!"
Lawyer Xu smiled bitterly: "Okay, I will inform Ms. Mu..."
"I'll transfer the 100 million to you later."
Lawyer Xu: “…”
Lawyer Xu thought he had misheard and was confused for a moment before he realized what was going on and exclaimed "Ah!"
Chairman Bai, standing opposite, didn't seem to care much. He casually said, "She's having to mortgage the land for a mere 100 million. Is her life that hard? Is 100 million enough? Ask her if it's enough. Don't say it was me who asked, say it was you. I'm afraid that girl is too shy to tell the truth, so I'll say less."
Lawyer Xu: “…”
Lawyer Xu was a little dazed, but when he came to his senses, he quickly said, "Okay, I'll ask Ms. Mu in detail right away."
Chairman Bai added, "That girl must be really anxious, so she came to you. You should be nicer and don't scare her. She is young, and if you scare her, she won't dare to speak."
Lawyer Xu: “…”
Lawyer Xu defended himself: "I have a good attitude..."
"Yes." Chairman Bai said, "Ask her first."
Lawyer Xu hung up the phone in a daze, then called Mu Ling again.
When Mu Ling heard that she could ask for more, she quickly said, "No, no, no, don't mortgage too much, just 100 million. I can try my best and guarantee to pay back the bank 100 million within ten years. But if it's too much, I definitely won't be able to pay it back. 100 million is enough!"
Lawyer Xu did not say that it was not a bank or a mortgage. He agreed vaguely and then transferred the money to Chairman Bai.
As expected, Chairman Bai was displeased when he heard this: "That's really too little."
Lawyer Xu: “…”
How can you tell that you are asking for less? No, they only want 100 million. Do you have money but nowhere to spend it? Why do you insist on giving more?
Chairman Bai hesitated for a moment and said, "Then let's just give her 100 million. It's unfair to her."
Lawyer Xu: “…”
How could she feel wronged if you gave her 100 million!
At this time, a female voice came from Chairman Bai's side, and the female voice asked, "Who is it?"
Chairman Bai then said, "Lawyer Xu, it's Mu Ling's zoo..."
"Oh." The elegant and dignified female voice said, "Did the child encounter any difficulties? I heard yesterday that something happened in her park."
Chairman Bai didn't know this yet: "What happened? Is no one hurt?"
The female voice said, "She's not in trouble. Someone went to the park to cause trouble."
Chairman Bai groaned, "No wonder she wants to take out a loan today. It's probably to improve the park's security system. It's hard for her to run a zoo. She's so young, and there's no elder to take care of her. Her mother is really annoying. She has to make things so difficult for her."
The female voice said, "That's right. Uncle only has this one granddaughter. Can't he just take her home and take good care of her? Why does he have to make her work so hard at such a young age? Look at her videos. She's always busy. The animal feed and fodder look so heavy. I don't know how she drags them all."
Chairman Bai said, "Maybe Mom wants to train the child."
The female voice said, "I don't know what mom thinks, but mom doesn't allow us to interfere. Can we help her?"
Chairman Bai said, "She wants to mortgage the undeveloped half of Beak Jungle. Consider it as a mortgage to me. This isn't a favor, just an equal exchange."
The female voice said, "Okay, give her more money so she can hire more people and stop doing the work herself."
The two of them were talking as if no one was around, and Lawyer Xu was completely numb from listening.
Is there a possibility that, before the property rights were completely changed, Bick Jungle was originally under the name of you, Chairman Bai? What do you mean by "it was mortgaged to you"? Isn't this just you mortgaging it to yourself?
You still say this is an equal exchange!
How dare you say that!
Chairman Bai spoke to his wife for a few words before turning to Lawyer Xu, "Alright, I'll have Secretary Zhou transfer the money to you later. You can make the specific arrangements, but one thing is for sure: don't mention me to her."
Lawyer Xu immediately said, "Okay, okay."
After hanging up the phone, Lawyer Xu was exhausted and called Mu Ling again.
When Mu Ling heard that it was done, she was a little skeptical: "It's done? Don't I have to write an application myself? The loan process is usually very complicated. I should follow up on it myself, right?"
Lawyer Xu said, "No need. I've said before that the zoo is a key government observation project. You will be given preferential treatment. I can take care of it. If you are worried, we can have a video conference later and I will explain the documents to you side by side."
Mu Ling nodded: "Okay, okay, thank you for your help."
After hanging up the phone, Mu Ling looked at the computer, still a little unresponsive.
The holographic surveillance that had troubled her for so long was actually finalized like this?
"Mu Ling."
At this time, someone called her from behind.
Mu Ling turned her head and saw that it was Brother Xiang.
Xiang Bie held a bottle of drink in his hand and handed it to the girl.
After Mu Ling took it, she thanked him with a smile, unscrewed the bottle and took a sip.
Seeing that she seemed to be in a better mood today, Xiang Bie smiled and said, "Yesterday you said you wanted to build a holographic surveillance system..."
"Yes!" Mu Ling put down the water bottle, her eyes shining: "Brother Xiang, we can start building it now. The money will be in place soon!"
Category: "..."
Xiang Bie frowned slightly: "Is the money in place?"
Mu Ling said, "Yes, I asked someone I know to do it. Anyway, it has been agreed. They said they will hold a meeting later to discuss the details. If there is no problem, I should be able to find a related holographic construction company in a couple of days to understand the situation! Brother Xiang, do you believe it? We are really going to build holographic surveillance!"
Wei Li happened to be passing by at this time. Upon hearing this, she was immediately shocked: "Director, are we going to build a holographic surveillance system? Is this true? I knew you were a rich woman!"
Mu Ling smiled helplessly and waved her hands quickly: "How can I be a rich woman? I'm already in debt! This is all because of the government's support! They specially opened a backdoor for us!"
Wei Li didn't know the details, but he was just happy. He pulled Xiang Bie again and said, "Brother Xiang, did you hear that? We are going to build holographic surveillance!"
As Wei Li was speaking, he noticed that Brother Xiang didn't look very good for some reason. His face was droopy and his eyes were gloomy.
Wei Li: “?”
Wei Li was puzzled: "Brother Xiang, why don't you smile? Are you born not to like to smile?"
