"Hello? Is this Zhiyu?"
The original location of the Pet Paradise is now fenced off by a lot of metal walls. The only open area, in the direction of the entrance of Pet Paradise, also has a scaffold built, and trucks are coming in and out as if it's under development.
Seeing this scene, Ah Qing, after a brief moment of shock, took out her phone to call Chen Zhiyu to inquire about what's happening at Pet Paradise.
"Over at Pet Paradise?"
Upon hearing this, Chen Zhiyu on the other end of the line couldn't help but say with a hint of exasperation, "The situation there is complicated. It's hard to explain over the phone. In short, Pet Paradise has now moved to a new location. The original area of the Pet Paradise has been sold to a wealthy lady."
"I'll send you a location. Come on over! The new Pet Paradise is still laying the turf."
After speaking, Chen Zhiyu sent Ah Qing a location share on WeChat.
Ah Qing looked at the WeChat location share, which was not far from where she was, only about four kilometers away.
"Could it be they're building a zoo here?" Ansheng looked at Pet Paradise with a strange expression.
Not long ago, it seemed that Lin Ying mentioned she bought a piece of land near Xia Dong to build a zoo.
It's called Xia Dong Zoo, but it's actually for settling Ansheng's matters and fulfilling an uncompleted wish of Lin Ying's daughter.
Lin Ying is very busy at work. Though she has time to accompany her daughter, it's often fragmented and hard to plan an enjoyable trip. Lin Ying promised her daughter that she would take her to visit Changlong Wildlife World in the neighboring province, but an accident prevented her from fulfilling that promise.
Then, coincidentally, there was Ansheng's situation. So Lin Ying invested in building a zoo in Xia Dong to commemorate her daughter and officially settle Ansheng there.
A white Arctic fox of the Xia Bei subspecies isn't something you can adopt just by going through simple procedures; you need proper credentials.
Although, with Lin Ying's connections, it's not difficult to find a legitimate zoo for Ansheng to affiliate with. With that, Ansheng basically has an ID card and won't be returned to the mountain by the Forestry Bureau or other authorities.
However, affiliating with someone else's place made Lin Ying feel a bit uncomfortable.
It's like having your child registered in a stranger's household, which feels very Reversed Celestial Spirits.
Combining the matters of Master Fox and her daughter, the Changping Mountain Pet Paradise came to be, with round-the-clock construction.
.....
Ah Qing drove along the mountain road to Chen's village in Changping Mountain.
Although it's called a village, Changping Mountain Chen's village is actually not much different from a small town, with a complete set of streets and markets. There are plenty of feed shops in a long row along the street.
"Zhiyu!"
Ah Qing arrived near the location point and saw Chen Zhiyu standing in front of the animal hospital.
Because she didn't need to work, Chen Zhiyu dressed quite casually in a loose black T-shirt, denim shorts, and flip-flops.
If you add to that her tanned skin, at first glance, you might mistake her for a delinquent girl, not being able to imagine that Chen Zhiyu is a renowned veterinarian.
"Over here!"
Chen Zhiyu waved to Ah Qing and smiled, nodding to Master Fox.
"Zhiyu, why did you sell Pet Paradise? Wasn't the business doing well before?" Ah Qing asked with some sadness as she followed Chen Zhiyu into the animal hospital.
For Ah Qing, Changping Mountain Pet Paradise holds a lot of sentimental value.
There were so many little animals, and Xiaolan found many friends there.
She also made quite a few friends there.
"... Pet Paradise didn't close down." Chen Zhiyu said with a slight twitch in her lips, "We set up Pet Paradise to transition into new fields, moving from breeding to pet development, medical care, and hosting services."
"This market has great potential and can boost our village's GDP."
"But the wealthy lady offered so much money that my dad almost called her 'mom,' which is truly incredible..."
The market undoubtedly has great potential.
However, it's just potential, whereas Lin Ying's straightforward offer of fifty million slapped on the table was overwhelming.
Lin Ying proposed a contract to lease the land, not outright buying it.
When Chen Zhiyu's dad and the other village committee members saw that check, their eyes almost popped out.
In some sense, Lin Ying almost became Chen Zhiyu's nominal grandmother.
"So... does that mean Zhiyu is unemployed? Starting anew?"
Sitting in the animal hospital's tearoom, Ah Qing was surprised after hearing about Chen Zhiyu's recent experiences.
"It's not exactly starting anew. That wealthy lady earnestly invited me to be the director of the zoo and offered to allocate a section for me to train veterinarians. However, pet hosting and funerals will need to be separate in the future."
Chen Zhiyu shook her head and said.
The Pet Paradise originally provided a one-stop service for leisure, pet development, medical care, hosting, and funerals.
With Pet Paradise being rebuilt into a zoo, leisure and medical care can stay there, but hosting and funeral services aren't suitable in a zoo setting.
"Eek eek..."
While the three were casually chatting, a little fox that had been outside trotted back in, making whining sounds.
"Hmm? You say... you found a fisherman?" Ah Qing asked puzzledly, looking at Xiaolan. "It's not unusual for people to fish, is it?"
"Fishing isn't unusual, but I suddenly thought of a fun idea. I think it could make for good entertainment. Ah Qing, do you want to check it out?"
Ansheng said with full confidence. He had just communicated with his pals in the river, ensuring that within a ten-mile radius, fishermen won't catch any fish.
At that time, Ah Qing could totally start a livestream to capture the anglers' frustration.
Besides, aside from the river pals, Ansheng also spoke with the village dogs and the wild boars on the mountain, asking them for a little assistance.
Earlier, on the way to Pet Paradise, there was a suspicious black sedan.
It attempted to park beside Ah Qing's car, but just as it parked, Ansheng and his group happened to come down the mountain and bump into them. Although it might have been a coincidence, Ansheng instinctively felt wary.
If it was just a coincidence, it'd be fine, but if it really was the poacher gang, Ansheng dared not imagine what they might do.
Remember, Parasitic Beast merely robbed a pair of mules from the poacher gang and ended up with enough C4 to blow up a highway toll station.
As well as using Black Gold to deal with a drone afterward.
If those bastards stuck C4 onto Ah Qing's car, Ansheng couldn't even imagine the consequences.
So...
Ansheng planned to temporarily divert Ah Qing, letting her go livestream the defeated fishermen while he contacted the Red-tailed Hawk, Jin Long, and Parasitic Beast, as well as mobilizing the entire city's friends to nab the poacher gang.
It didn't matter whether the other side was good or bad; as long as they behaved suspiciously, they'd get a bite on the butt.
Today, all expenses and cleanup operations would be paid for by the Security Bureau's Woodcutter team!
