Chapter 43

Elephant?

Mu Ling paused for a moment, then frowned.

Director Liu continued, "My friend had known about many zoos before, but he didn't like any of them. In the end, he decided to give up and planned to buy an island to set up magic alone. As a result, someone recommended your video of Piccolo Zoo to him..."

"Director Mu, your video is of very high quality. He became interested in your zoo after watching it, so he asked me to come to your place today. After watching it, I also think that the environment of your zoo is very good, and the relationship between the war beasts is very harmonious. After I told him, he had already rushed here on a starship overnight. He will arrive at the God King Star tomorrow afternoon. Director Mu, do you have time to meet him tomorrow afternoon?"

Mu Ling hesitated. She said, "There is definitely no problem meeting, But Director Liu, our BIKE Zoo is a forest zoo. Elephants are usually recommended to live in plains because of their large size and weight. Is your friend sure he wants to send his war elephant to a forest zoo? Can the war elephant adapt to it?"

Director Liu paused: "I'm not sure about this. Why don't you meet tomorrow and talk about it in person?"

Mu Ling had to agree: "Then ask your friend to come directly tomorrow. I'm really sorry, but our zoo has just opened these two days and I can't get away. I can only ask him to come to the zoo to meet." Director Liu

hurriedly said: "No problem, no problem, I'll tell him and let him contact you directly then."

After hanging up the call, Mu Ling sighed and turned to look at Xiang Bie.

Xiang Bie had already heard something from her communication just now, and he asked: "Elephant?"

Mu Ling nodded: "It is said to be called magic, and it is the war beast of some commander... Brother Xiang, can elephants live in the mountains?" Xiang Bie pondered

for a moment: "Mountains with lower slopes can live there. Our park is not entirely forested. There are also 20 to 30 kilometers of flat grassland in the lower reaches of the southernmost part, but it is far from the main mountain road and has been abandoned."

The Bic Jungle covers an area of ​​more than 3 million square meters. Of the 1.5 million square kilometers, more than 1.5 million square kilometers were blocked on the other side of the protection net. However, not every piece of land on the 1.5 million square kilometers on this side of the protection net was developed. Only the area with the best environment, the best roads, and the most beautiful scenery was built into the core viewing area of ​​the zoo. Some of the upstream and downstream areas on the edge still retain the state of the original jungle. It is precisely because of this that some retired war beasts like to go to those places.

Mu Ling had never been to the downstream in the south. She took out the map and flipped through it. After roughly determining the location, she said, "Then let's meet with the commander tomorrow and talk about it. It may not be set here."

That night, Mu Ling went to bed early after packing up, and at the veterinary station, because Pi Mi Yue Guang's condition was still not very good, Xiang Bie stayed to keep watch.

Just as all the employees of the Bic Zoo were lying in bed to replenish their energy after a tiring day of preparation for the opening of the zoo the next day, Bic Zoo was once again trending on StarNet.

Clicking in, the thousand tourists who grabbed tickets on the first day of opening and visited the zoo for a whole day were speaking out about how fun Bic Zoo is!

——【At first, I really didn’t expect the process to be so rich. I was prepared to see only a few animals. In the end, there were so many animals that I couldn’t see them all! There were all along the way! I also interacted with many animals! [Pictures][Pictures][Pictures]】

——【Today, I saw many celebrity animals that appeared in my wife’s videos, including Princess Lily, Baomei, Little Potato, and Sticky Bun. They were completely different in person from the videos. I couldn’t stop taking pictures and checking in like crazy. Of course, the most popular traffic star in Piccolo Zoo must be our Princess Kirin! Give Kirin a shout! [Pictures][Pictures][Pictures]】

——【Today I saw a new war beast in the animal dormitory, named Tayun, species Falcon. I didn’t find much information about Tayun on the Internet, and my wife didn’t post a separate video of Tayun. Woohoo, my wife Qiuqiu, please post a video of Tayun. They are all S-level war beasts. Doesn’t our Tayun deserve a single eagle vlog? 】

——【Show off the free little gift from Piccolo Zoo. The little pendant has been used. After using the Qilin pendant, I am a Qilin person! Hehehe! 】

It is simply the best value for money! But when can my wife open up more visitors? It is really hard to get a thousand tickets a day. I want to take the whole family! 】

Bic Zoo's popularity has been rising. Until 11 o'clock in the evening, Bic Zoo has occupied six of the top ten hot searches!

Now, netizens who have grabbed tickets are even more eager to visit in a few days.

Netizens who didn't grab tickets are complaining and frantically asking if there is a transfer of tickets.

Because the voices for ticket transfer were too loud, the Federal Tourism Administration issued a notice overnight, calling on the public who have travel plans recently to buy tickets through legal channels, and not to buy scalper tickets or second-hand tickets, and beware of being deceived and buying fake tickets!

Mu Ling heard about the popularity on the Internet from the employees the next day.

The next morning, Mu Ling woke up at 7:30. When she woke up, other employees had already started working. The restaurant staff began to prepare portable meals, the supermarket staff began to fill the supermarket, the breeders and patrolmen checked their vehicles, and everyone talked about the hot search while working.

Mu Ling listened to it, but she didn't have time to listen too much. After feeding the beasts breakfast and medicine, she had to go into the mountains again.

At 8:30 in the morning, the Bic Zoo opened on time. Just like yesterday, there was already an endless queue outside the gate.

Mu Ling was holding a long-tailed fox in her arms and was helping Xiao Zhao check the tickets.

The first visitor to enter the park saw the long-tailed fox in Mu Ling's arms and was immediately surprised: "Oh, is this the little boss?"

The first animal Mu Ling saw when she came to the zoo on her first day was a long-tailed vampire. It was this long-tailed vampire that led her to find the unicorn that was almost seriously injured and killed.

Mu Ling later took a lot of videos of this long-tailed vampire when she went up the mountain, and gave it a name. Because it was particularly cool and domineering, she named it Little Overlord.

Mu Ling didn't expect that the first visitor would recognize Little Overlord. There are seven or eight long-tailed vampires in their zoo.

Mu Ling said with a smile: "Yes, it's the little boss, and it's on duty to welcome guests today."

The tourists who came in later were immediately happy: "Your welcoming animals are different every day? I saw on Star Network that it was a brown deer yesterday."

Mu Ling: "Yes, it's usually a shift system, and we can't catch the same animal to work every day."

"Hahaha, yes, yes, then are you going to open the animal dormitory this afternoon? We are here for Qilin Lightning!"

"Open, open from 3pm to 6pm, open every day!"

The tourists were immediately happy, and some people felt that Mu Ling's voice was familiar, very much like the director's wife in the video. They were about to ask, but the tourists behind them came in, and they couldn't block the door.

The long-tailed fox is very popular today. Although it was cold and fierce at first, it has let down its guard against humans after getting along with Mu Ling for half a month. Therefore, as long as Mu Ling holds it, it can even accept other tourists' non-offensive touches.

The cooperation of the little boss also makes Mu Ling's welcoming work smoother.

It was not until half past nine that all the tourists finally entered the venue, and at this time, the service area was already bustling.

Some people were buying things in the supermarket restaurant, some were choosing the route to go up the mountain together, some were taking pictures and checking in with friends, some were paying attention to the huge glass house behind the supermarket building, and some were even turning on the optical computer camera, broadcasting live on the entire network and taking netizens on a cloud tour.

After a while, shuttle buses carrying tourists drove away one after another. By 11:30, all the tourists had gone into the mountain, and only the staff were left in the service area.

Xiao Zhao was tired after a whole morning. He was taking a break at the ticket gate and whispered to the director: "Director, I feel like we really don't have enough staff."

Mu Ling was feeding the long-tailed snipe in her arms with frozen food. She kept saying, "I know, I know. I originally wanted to experiment for a week. If the tourists' feedback is good within a week, I will expand and recruit another 30 employees. The number of tourists open to the park every day will also increase to 2,000. But now it seems that we don't have to wait a week. There are a lot of good reviews on the hot searches. How about this, wait three days. If the feedback is still good after three days, I will recruit people immediately!"

Xiao Zhao was satisfied, and then she looked at the To the long-tailed vulture that was silently gnawing on the frozen food, she asked: "Director, do we really have to change an animal on duty every day? Who will it be tomorrow?"

Mu Ling said: "Golden rabbits, bring two golden rabbits tomorrow, but I won't be here tomorrow. Golden rabbits are not as dependent on me as long-tailed vultures, so I don't need to watch over them all the time. I will go to the restaurant to help tomorrow."

In fact, for Mu Ling, it doesn't matter where she helps, whether it's helping with welcoming guests or helping with stocking goods, but the problem is that when she helps with welcoming guests, tourists always like to take pictures of her. Although they don't take pictures of her, but mainly take pictures of the long-tailed vulture in her arms, but the camera is facing her, can she pretend not to see it?

She almost smiled and her face was frozen this morning!

At noon, after lunch, Mu Ling went to feed the war beasts and give them medicine.

Since they had time and the tourists hadn't come down, Mu Ling first did a mental assessment of the animals today. From what I can see so far, everyone's damage value has been significantly reduced, although the reduction is very small, some only reduce by a few tenths of a point every day, but at least it is decreasing.

At three o'clock in the afternoon, Mu Ling opened the animal dormitory, and around half past three, tourists came down one after another.

The first shuttle bus to come down was Wei Li's. Seeing the tourists rushing to the glass house, Wei Li complained to Mu Ling while drinking water: "Everyone is urging me to hurry up, saying it's three o'clock, it's three o'clock, what can I do now? Three cars make up one bus, so the speed is much slower. I can't step on the accelerator to save time. What if something goes wrong?"

Mu Ling's heart skipped a beat when she heard what Brother Wei said. Who blamed her? Was he blaming her? Blaming her for not hiring more people, so there were not enough people to drive the shuttle bus, and they had to make three buses into one?

Stop scolding, stop scolding!

Mu Ling said quickly: "If the feedback from tourists is stable in three days, I will definitely recruit people! Really!"

Wei Li looked at the director in surprise, not knowing why the director was so nervous all of a sudden, but it would definitely be a good thing to recruit more people.

He smiled and said: "Thank you, director!"

Mu Ling breathed a sigh of relief, wiped the sweat off her face and left silently.

After a while, Mu Ling's phone rang. She looked at the caller ID and saw that it was an unfamiliar number. She had already guessed who it was, and she picked up the call: "Hello."

Ten minutes later, Mu Ling received a call from a middle-aged man with a straight posture and a serious expression at the gate, followed by two young men.

She quickly extended her hand to greet him, "Hello

, Commander Duan." Duan Ruifeng, the commander-in-chief of the North Red Star Beast Warfare Command Center, glanced at Mu Ling, shook her hand, and said solemnly, "Hello, Director Mu."

Mu Ling glanced at the two young men behind her, who should be Commander Duan's subordinates.

Mu Ling said, "Let's go in and talk."

The meeting place was in the restaurant. At this time, some tourists had already gone down the mountain, and some people in the restaurant were already ordering food. Mu Ling chose a secluded place for Commander Duan to sit down, and she personally brought four cups of coffee.

The two subordinates of Commander Duan did not take the coffee at first, until Commander Duan nodded to them, they thanked Mu Ling.

Mu Ling smiled and sat opposite Commander Duan, and asked, "I heard from Director Liu that you want to send your war beast magic to our Piccolo Zoo?"

Commander Duan had a stern face, full of sternness, and his sharp eyes had been sizing up Mu Ling from the beginning, but what was interesting was that facing such an aggressive gaze, Director Mu was very calm from beginning to end, and he always kept a polite smile on his face.

He was a person of neither servility nor overbearance.

Commander Duan probably had a preliminary understanding of the future keeper of his war beast, and then said: "Yes, I watched your video, and I think this place is very suitable for Magic."

Mu Ling smiled and said: "But we are in a mountainous environment here, do you understand this?"

Commander Duan said decisively: "Don't worry about this. Magic once carried out a three-year mission with me in the depths of the tropical rainforest of North Red Star. It has no problem with the forest environment."

Mu Ling asked again: "Then may I ask why it retired?"

Speaking of this, Commander Duan's expression turned cold, as if he thought of some bad memories. His already serious face looked even more ferocious: "It was injured. It was bitten by seven high-level contaminated wolves. After that, its mood was not right. We did a mental assessment on it, and the nerve damage value exceeded 50%. It was judged to be forced to retire." According

to the beast-related regulations issued by the Federation fifty years ago, if the mental damage value of a war beast exceeds 40%, it needs to be retired at its discretion. If the damage value exceeds 50%, it will be forced to retire immediately.

Commander Duan looked at Mu Ling. He could see that Director Mu probably didn't want to accept magic, so his attitude was always neither salty nor bland...

In fact, he also felt that the conditions of this Piccolo Zoo were not good. Although this Piccolo Zoo occupied a large area, it had few workers and simple equipment. It was essentially a makeshift team.

As a "small" zoo that had just opened, normal people would add friendly animals that could be open to the public and interact with tourists, so as to generate income for the zoo, and they would not want a retired S-class war beast that might never come out after entering the mountain.

War beasts are difficult to raise and protect, and they require a lot of manpower and resources to take special care of them, not to mention his magic, which is a giant elephant weighing nine tons.

Commander Duan understood that Director Mu must have considered his own inability and wanted to refuse to accept him, but he couldn't care less. The wild environment of the Pic Jungle could improve the Ripping Tiger, the Fire Leopard, and the Snow Wolf, so it must also improve the magic.

Even if he was given double or triple subsidies and paid for his own meals, he had to send his magic in as a transfer student!

Other war beasts can't just get better and better, his magic must also be the best!

Commander Duan was in a state of confusion, seeing that Director Mu was still indecisive, but he had already thought about how to bully the weak and abuse his power for personal gain, and force Director Mu to accept the magic!

Sure enough, after a few seconds of silence, Director Mu spoke: "Okay then."

"It's no use for you to refuse, I have already contacted the Federal Forestry Administration... What did you say?"

Commander Duan was halfway through his words when he realized what the young director opposite him said, and his cold expression suddenly cracked a little.

Mu Ling was stunned for a moment, and looked at Commander Duan: "I said okay, then when will you send the magic?"

Commander Duan: "..."

Commander Duan was stunned. Could it be that he has lost his ability to judge people? Director Mu was clearly resisting just now... and he hasn't even mentioned his additional conditions. The 150,000 interstellar coins for foster care is issued by the government, and he will also provide 300,000 in private subsidies. He will also pay Magic's food on a monthly basis, and he will also pay for Magic's usual medical expenses and labor costs...

He hasn't said any of these, and Director Mu agreed?

Mu Ling didn't know what she had missed. She was still smiling: "Elephants are very gentle animals. If Magic can adapt to the mountain environment, I can't think of any reason not to accept it."

And accepting the war beast will also give a subsidy of 150,000!

Great, I made another 150,000, and the small treasury is a little fatter!

Although elephants eat a lot, it doesn't matter. Mu Ling can shoot videos. If she makes money from the videos, she can use it to provide more food for magic. Anyway, she already has so many animals, so one or two won't make a difference.

Mu Ling was very optimistic, but Commander Duan caught

her off guard. Commander Duan was still a little unsure when he left.

Mu Ling was quite polite and invited Commander Duan to visit their animal dormitory.

Commander Duan had watched the video sent by Director Liu yesterday. He had no interest in war beasts other than magic, but Mu Ling was so kind that he went over to take a look.

As a result, when he went over, he happened to see the strong black panther swimming in the inflatable pool, and then the little wolf rolled over and rolled in.

The little wolf couldn't swim very well, so doggy paddling was particularly difficult.

The black panther swam over and used his body to hold up the little wolf.

The little wolf stood on the black panther's back, shook off the wet fur on his body, and nibbled on the black panther's ears, looking playful all the time.

Commander Duan watched and his feet didn't move.

Looking at this naughty little wolf, he seemed to remember Magic when he was a child. Magic also liked to play in the water when he was a child, and always liked to suck water with his nose and then spray him...

Commander Duan laughed as he thought about it, and said softly: "Magic is like a little wolf bear..."

"Bear? Silver Snow Bear?" Mu Ling only heard the last word "bear" at the side. She asked Commander Duan: "You want to see Silver Snow Bear Moonlight? It's not here, it's at the veterinary station."

Commander Duan: "..."

Director Mu's clairvoyance is quite good.

With this hearing, it's obvious that he is not cut out to be a soldier.

Commander Duan was about to explain that he didn't want to see the silver snow bear, but he suddenly thought of a video he had seen, in which the silver snow bear had a completely bald back and was hiding in a corner with a pitiful look.

Commander Duan, who loved to supplement his brain, suddenly had a vision that magic would be like this in the future, getting injured and then curled up in a corner and shivering. He immediately wanted to see with his own eyes how Piccolo Zoo took care of injured war beasts.

He asked, "Isn't the veterinary station far away?"

"Not far..." Mu Ling said, and still took Commander Duan to the veterinary station on the other side.

As soon as Commander Duan entered, he heard a very soft voice reading a story coming from the ward area.

Commander Duan was feeling curious, so he went in to take a look, only to find that it was audio.

Under the sound, the snow-white Silver Snow Bear was curled up in a ball with a little bear doll in his arms, sleeping soundly.

"Roar..." At this time, a low roar suddenly came from the side.

Commander Duan turned his head and saw a skinny giant lion in the cage next to him, tilting its neck and calling towards them.

Commander Duan narrowed his eyes and looked at the lion seriously, while Mu Ling understood what Pimi meant in seconds: "Pee again?"

Mu Ling said, apologized to Commander Duan, then opened the cage and walked in, and quickly began to change the lion's diaper.

I’ve seen Commander Duan change diapers without getting them wet in the video, but seeing it in person now, to be honest, it’s a bit shocking…

The lions in the Beast Guards are not so delicate as to wear diaper-proof ones. If someone pees on them, they just pee on them. They can just wipe it off or wash it off themselves…

Is this really the difference between a man raising a child and a woman raising a child?

Mu Ling moved quickly, changing the diaper in two or three strokes, then wrapped it up and threw it into the trash can outside.

When she came in again, she saw Commander Duan was still looking at Pimi, so she pointed to the front and said, "That's Moonlight."

Commander Duan followed the direction Mu Ling pointed and looked at the sleeping white bear again. He slowly walked to the outside of the white bear's cage.

At this moment, the white bear suddenly turned over. Mu Ling saw that Moonlight would press on the wound on his back if he slept like this, so she opened the cage and walked in, calling softly, "Moonlight, let's not sleep like this, turn over."

The sleepy white bear licked his mouth and opened his eyes. Perhaps he couldn't tell whether it was a dream or reality, so he shook his ears and turned over according to Mu Ling's signal.

Mu Ling touched its head, stuffed the little bear doll into its paws, and said, "Hold it."

The white bear hugged the little bear obediently, it blinked again, and then arched its head towards Mu Ling.

Mu Ling bent down and kissed its forehead, then the white bear closed its eyes contentedly and fell asleep again.

Mu Ling got up and walked out of the cage. Seeing Commander Duan's pupils trembling outside, she explained, "You can kiss and hug Moonlight when he is unconscious, he doesn't know..."

Commander Duan: "..."

Sounds like a pervert...

After seeing the two seriously injured war beasts, Commander Duan's last bit of worry disappeared after coming out. He said to Mu Ling solemnly, "I will bring the magic to you after your park closes tonight."

Mu Ling nodded and shook his hand, "See you tonight."

That evening, 7:30.

The zoo staff had just finished their meal when they saw a starship coming over in the sky above the server.

The starship was suspended in the sky, and their director Mu was standing in the open space below the starship, waving his hands wildly at it: "Fall, fall!"

After a while, the starship landed, and everyone gathered around to watch the excitement.

Then they saw the starship's door open, and more than 30 strong men were pushing a giant iron cage out.

Take another look inside the cage.

Red skin, curved tusks, a sturdy body, ears like a cattail leaf fan...

It turned out to be a red macaque? !

Mu Ling also walked over at this time. He shook hands with Commander Duan first, and then looked at the elephant in the cage. Its body was covered with wounds of various sizes, and there were several places on its head that were oozing pus. Its eyes were cloudy, its pupils were dark, and tears were flowing from its eyes...
