Jiang Kaiping is now over eighty years old, but he is still in good health and looks to be in his early sixties. He has a kind and gentle face. "I've had lunch. The food at your restaurant last time was very good."
"Oh, by the way, let me introduce you, this is..."
There were only about ten people in the entire conference room, but they were all very important figures. Su Zhou was just an ordinary zoo director, and she never expected to meet so many big shots at the same time. Fortunately, her upbringing allowed her to remain calm no matter who she was facing. She greeted them one by one with a slight smile.
After a brief exchange of pleasantries, Su Zhou found a seat and began to get down to business.
"To be honest, we've been following your zoo privately for a long time. The construction speed of the facilities is very fast, which is why we asked you to come. We need to set up a research institute and complete it in the shortest possible time. I hope this project can be kept absolutely confidential. Don't tell anyone, not even your spouse, your parents, or your family. Can you do that?"
"Of course, you will still have to pay the money you are owed. In addition, if you encounter any trouble, you can contact us at any time. Think about it."
Without a moment's hesitation, Su Zhou raised her head and gave a sweet smile: "Of course, since the country needs us, we citizens must do our part. I'm ready anytime it takes."
You can even get it for free.
She thought to herself silently.
This is truly a source of pride for the family. If Mom and Dad knew, they would definitely be very proud.
"We should still give you what's due. Let's discuss the specifics first. First, let's sign a confidentiality agreement..."
“We also understand that the building materials of your zoo are indeed far ahead of their time, which is why we want to cooperate with Xiaoyou.”
Don't be fooled by the fact that these people's names only appear in textbooks and on TV. They are humble and kind, and they look at Su Zhou with the same respect one would show a junior.
Su Zhou unscrewed the bottle of mineral water and took a sip. The smooth and sweet taste filled her mouth. She sniffed and nodded: "Okay, I'll sign my name now."
She signed her name with a black pen. She didn't need to read the specific terms herself; with Jiang Kaiping here, there wouldn't be any problems.
After writing down your name, Jiang Kaiping said with admiration, "Of all the kids I had when we were little, you were my favorite. You were so smart and quick-witted, it seemed like you could learn anything just by looking at it. But back then, you wouldn't even come with me to learn chemistry."
Feeling a little embarrassed by having childhood memories brought up again, Su Zhou awkwardly scratched the back of her head.
Because she lived in the same villa district as Jiang Kaiping, and they were very close by, and because Jiang Kaiping had a grandson who was about the same age as her, they used to play together when they were little. Sometimes Jiang Kaiping would even visit, and Su Zhou quite enjoyed talking to him.
At that time, I didn't know Jiang Kaiping's specific identity; I just found the professional terms he used very interesting.
"Although I'm very interested, I'm not smart enough, and my interest is too short-lived," Su Zhou said somewhat embarrassedly.
Jiang Kaiping's gaze was somewhat wistful: "Back then, you grasped everything so quickly, you were such a promising talent. I never imagined you'd end up running a zoo. I was even thinking about whether you should go to work for my student, Song Anliang, for your master's degree. You'll definitely achieve even greater things in the future."
Song Anliang is a professor at their university and one of the top scientists in the country. Many people fight tooth and nail for a single graduate student spot under his wing, and students from other prestigious universities desperately try to get in, but he does admit only a small number of graduate students each year. However, every student he mentors is exceptionally successful.
Su Zhou explained in a low voice, "Grandpa Jiang, you know me. I've loved animals since I was a child, and opening a zoo has always been my dream."
She could lie without batting an eye, it was so easy for her.
"You really do like small animals." Grandpa Jiang Kaiping was just eager to nurture her talent, and of course he wouldn't force Su Zhou to study chemistry. He was just a little disappointed that such a promising girl was like this. He nodded and said, "There's nothing wrong with opening a zoo. You've done quite a few important things. Catching human traffickers, catching poisoners... You're a good and upright girl."
Detective Conan's constitution is no joke.
Sometimes, even when Su Zhou hasn't done anything, all sorts of things will come knocking on her door. Forced to become an assistant, she also helps the police raid some hideouts. Her expression became slightly more serious: "These are all part of my duties."
"Grandpa Jiang, as for the construction team, I will make sure they arrive in Tibet with you as soon as possible, and they will follow your arrangements."
Jiang Kaiping: "That would be perfect. By the way... come to my house for dinner sometime. Your grandma will make your favorite glutinous rice lotus root."
Su Zhou Xiaoji Zhuomi nodded: "Grandma's glutinous rice lotus root is delicious. I haven't tasted it in a long time, and I've been craving it."
After exchanging contact information with the other big shots, Su Zhou looked somewhat dazed when she came out. She was just an ordinary zoo director, so how come there were more and more big shots on her list?
However, it's always good to know another big shot.
Su Zhou's lips curled up slightly as she recalled the contents written in black and white, and the price offered was irresistible.
Now Wanling Zoo is no longer just an ordinary zoo; it means it has another powerful backer. If anyone tries to cause trouble in the zoo in the future, they will definitely not have a good ending.
She returned to the zoo under escort and suddenly saw a familiar figure. The figure was extremely slender, and just by looking at the back, she knew it must be someone.
"Deng Ying, moving today?" After all, she was a college classmate. Although this classmate was indeed a bit speechless, Su Zhou certainly wouldn't ignore her now that she had seen her. She raised an eyebrow and asked, "Where's your boyfriend? Why aren't you with him anymore?"
Deng Ying's face turned pale and then red. She had dated a young idol who didn't have many fans but had a bad temper. Apart from his fairly handsome face, he had no other redeeming qualities.
He was a low-level celebrity who made a big fuss, privately contacting fans, and even though he was in a relationship, he hid it from them, claiming to be single to a major fan, only to be caught by her having affairs with other women. Their breakup was messy and ugly.
Just by looking at her expression, Su Zhou could roughly guess what had happened between them. She patted her shoulder and said, "Alright, aren't three-legged toads easy to find? They're everywhere. Don't be sad."
