"I'm devastated that my salary is even less than a police dog's."
"Are they still recruiting police dogs? I'd like to sign up for a few months."
"Can humans apply for police dog positions?"
"Single dogs are still dogs - I think I'm qualified for this job. Please trust me, organization!"
"Give up, brothers. The standards for police dogs are extremely high, and many get eliminated each year."
"High standards? I don't think so. Police dogs do incredibly dangerous work - bomb detection, drug enforcement, search and rescue - they're literally risking their lives."
"Indeed, and I've heard that police dogs generally have shorter lifespans than regular dogs, and most rarely die of natural causes."
"Never mind then, I won't become a police dog, but maybe I can have my dog apply for the position."
"Now that the Woof Patrol are all police dogs, if some clueless tourist gets into a conflict with them, would it count as assaulting an officer?"
"Isn't that obvious? Of course it would."
...
While the crowd was buzzing with discussion, the Woof Patrol, now dressed in police dog uniforms, lined up to shake hands with Lin Feng one by one.
They looked even more professional than professional police dogs.
After the Woof Patrol collectively received their commendations, two large trucks arrived at the zoo entrance.
"Director Yang, the rewards for those animals we promised have been approved."
"This truck contains 5,000 pounds of fresh beef, sponsored by Guangming Meat Processing Factory."
"This truck contains 1,000 live chickens and 5,000 pounds of dog food. Not bad for our heroes, right?"
Hearing Lin Feng's explanation, Yang Lin's eyes immediately lit up.
Just the cost of this meat alone was a considerable sum, probably several hundred thousand yuan at least.
"It's more than enough! This will feed the animals in my zoo for several months."
"That's good. I've delivered everything today."
As he spoke, Lin Feng called over the TV station reporters.
After the photo session, Yang Lin thought everything was finished.
But just before Lin Feng left, he whispered in Yang Lin's ear.
"Director Yang, you'd better get ready. West Rainbow Zoo is about to get very lively."
Before Yang Lin could understand what he meant, Lin Feng turned and left with a mysterious smile.
"What does he mean by 'about to get very lively'?"
Unable to figure out Lin Feng's cryptic message, Yang Lin decided to let it go.
While the awards ceremony was over, there was still much work to be done.
After storing all the supplies, Yang Lin's attention turned to the official commendation check.
It wasn't really a check, just a certificate - the actual reward money had already been transferred to his bank account through Ningnan City's financial system.
In other words, in just that short moment, his bank balance had suddenly increased by five million yuan.
As for how to spend these five million, he already had an answer in mind.
The next second, he took out his phone and dialed a number.
"Hello, is this Tianyuan Construction Design Company? I'd like you to help me design a plan."
"What type?"
"A zoo - about 50 hectares."
...
While Yang Lin was preparing to renovate the old park area, unexpected news suddenly spread throughout Ningnan City.
The Ningnan City Zoo, which had been operating for nearly 40 years, declared bankruptcy.
When the news broke, the entire Ningnan City was in an uproar.
No one had expected this state-owned zoo, which had been operating well in the first half of the year, to collapse so suddenly.
This was also the first zoo in Dragon Country to declare bankruptcy.
Not only were ordinary citizens confused, but Yang Lin was equally bewildered when he received the news.
"Holy crap, is this for real? Did I somehow cause their bankruptcy?"
"It's state-owned after all, how could it just collapse like that?"
If this news hadn't come from internal sources, Yang Lin would have suspected it was just a rumor.
Just as he was full of doubts, a Ningnan City deputy official suddenly came to see him.
After the official's explanation, he finally understood the reason.
It turned out that since its establishment, the Ningnan City Zoo had only been profitable in its first few years, and hadn't made any money afterward.
It had been surviving on government subsidies every year, and in recent years, after switching to a self-sustaining model, their already difficult operations became even worse.
Previously, the employees were taking care of the animals, but now it had become a case of the animals supporting the employees.
Combined with the recent incident that led to all the zoo's leadership being arrested, the authorities simply decided to close the zoo.
They could then sell the zoo property and turn the loss into profit.
The only complicated issue was what to do with the animals.
The Ningnan City Zoo was a large facility with over 250 species and 2,500 animals.
They couldn't just release them all into the wild.
So the final decision from above was to distribute these 2,500 animals to zoos across the country.
And as the only remaining zoo in Ningnan, West Rainbow Zoo would take on some of them.
At this point, Yang Lin finally understood the meaning behind Lin Feng's earlier words.
His eyes immediately lit up.
"What a fantastic opportunity!"
While these animals might be a burden for other zoos, for Yang Lin, this was an unprecedented opportunity.
Heaven knows how much money and time it would take to acquire even one animal through regular channels.
What made him even happier was that due to his previous contributions to Ningnan, he had priority in selecting animals.
Only the animals he didn't choose would be distributed to other zoos across the country.
Immediately, images of numerous precious animals began appearing in Yang Lin's mind.
Giant pandas, golden monkeys, giraffes, zebras... he wanted to acquire all these animals that West Rainbow Zoo had never had before.
One could imagine that when West Rainbow Zoo added all these new animals, the visitor distribution would no longer be as uneven as it currently was.
Of course, this was just wishful thinking for now - in reality, each new animal would significantly increase the zoo's expenses.
The requirements for the facility would also be higher. For example, keeping a giant panda would cost at least a million yuan annually, and would require a specially designated large area for the panda's habitat.
They'd need heating in winter and air conditioning with ice blocks in summer.
National treasures were like ancestors - they needed the utmost care.
Just as Yang Lin was about to carefully consider his decision, sudden bad news came from the city zoo.
fe full of thrilling battles, ultimately sacrificing himself to protect his homeland and its people. Unexpectedly, he was reborn into his youth, where he encountered the campus ice queen, Ye Miyue, now working as a masseuse at his family's martial arts school. "How long have you been doing this?" "I-it's my first time..." the campus belle murmured, her head bowed. Wang Xian remembered clearly that back then, although Ye Miyue had not yet awakened her martial arts talent, her outstanding academic performance, breathtaking beauty, and icy demeanor had made her the moon goddess of every boy in school. He was no exception. In his previous life, they had no connection, never imagining they would meet under such circumstances. Sadly, today the city was attacked by an S-class beast, the 'Wind King Falcon,' destroying nearly half of the city streets. Ye Miyue had died on her way home during this disaster. Now, given a second chance, facing the campus goddess of his youth, Wang Xian resolutely decided to extend her session! And so. "My hands are tired..." the blushing campus belle whispered, relieved. Wang Xian pointed to her slender calves and said, "Who said only hands can massage? There are feet too!" "Extend the session, continue!"
