Food Stall: Customers Chase Me across the Country
Chapter 499 - 497: The Irresistible Animal Show
"Wow, wow, caretaker sister, caretaker sister, come quickly, your pelican is eating a colleague!"
As Shen Teng was running, he called out loudly to the caretaker, with an inexplicable excitement in his voice.
He was just wandering around when he suddenly saw a pelican swallow a pigeon whole, and couldn’t help but shout out loud. 𝐟𝕣𝕖𝐞𝐰𝕖𝚋𝐧𝗼𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝗰𝐨𝐦
The caretaker hurried over when she heard the sound, but instead of dealing with the pelican, she said to Shen Teng, "Thank you, sir, for the reminder, but please don’t shout in the zoo, it might scare the animals."
Shen Teng quickly covered his mouth and nodded vigorously, indicating that he wouldn’t shout anymore.
Only then did the caretaker nod in satisfaction and walk toward the pelican.
When the pelican saw the caretaker, it tried to run away with big strides, but the caretaker quickly grabbed its neck.
She then skillfully pried open its mouth and rescued a gray-white pigeon from inside.
The pigeon flapped its wings a couple of times and hurriedly flew away, fearing it might be swallowed by the pelican again if it wasn’t careful.
Watching the caretaker’s adept actions, Shen Teng realized this pelican was probably a repeat offender, and couldn’t help but bend down to take a closer look at the pelican.
The pelican wasn’t afraid of humans, and when it saw Shen Teng leaning closer, it opened its large beak and playfully bumped his head.
"Sister, help me! Your pelican wants to eat people!"
The caretaker, speechless, pried the pelican’s mouth open and said, "Don’t worry, its bite force is weak, and its mouth can’t fit you."
Shen Teng felt that today’s visit to the zoo was indeed worthwhile.
The animals here were surprisingly allowed to roam freely and weren’t afraid of people at all; he almost got his head stuck in a pelican’s mouth, which was quite thrilling to think about, wasn’t it?
Just as he was about to leave, he noticed that the pelican had quietly eaten another little duckling colleague...
"Caretaker sister, caretaker sister! Your pelican is eating a colleague again! Work is boring, eating a colleague is appetizing, hahaha."
This time, the caretaker was really angry; after rescuing the bewildered little duckling, she pinched the pelican’s beak and dragged it all the way to the Kapibara’s room.
The pelican, having no sense of boundaries, went in and started biting the Kapibara’s butt with its beak wide open.
The Kapibara just stood dumbly in the water, letting it bite without any reaction.
After a while, another male caretaker dragged in another pelican, obviously another repeat offender.
Shen Teng felt he was truly enlightened today; the freedom of the animals in this zoo was really high.
Those animals unafraid of humans wandered around freely, sometimes even chasing human children for fun.
However, only those animals that posed no harm to humans were allowed to roam, which greatly enhanced the visitors’ sense of involvement.
Shen Teng continued his tour and even watched two animal performances during the visit.
Yes, it was the animals insisting on performing.
One was a large black bear performing an imperial concubine bath.
This large black bear didn’t even take off its Nike shirt, bathing in the pool wearing it like a fur coat, occasionally lifting one fluffy black leg to showcase it to everyone, causing everyone to burst into laughter.
There was also a chimpanzee swinging on a swing, going all out.
The phrase "The feeling of flying freely, the feeling of flying freely..." kept replaying endlessly in Shen Teng’s mind.
Everyone truly had a sense of astonishment from this visit.
This place was really different from other zoos!
"No wonder it’s the zoo that drove away Boss Wang, full of personality."
"Almost all the animal signs in the zoo are handwritten by the staff, and those illustrations are also hand-drawn. It’s really rare to see such a dedicated zoo."
"We refuse animal performances, but the animals are determined to perform; tiger scattering flowers, bear concubine bathing, monkey helming a ship, exhilarating experiences, free flying, this is the most interesting zoo I’ve ever visited, thanks to Boss Wang’s recommendation."
"No wonder it’s a place that Boss Wang voluntarily advertises, truly worth the visit. I recommend friends to come see it when they get the chance, it really should be considered a destination in travel planning."
Positive reviews, positive reviews, still positive reviews.
The popularity of Red Mountain Forest Zoo continues to rise, even vaguely showing the trend of surpassing the debate heat between Wang Fan and Boss Cai.
It’s inevitable, one is rising continuously in popularity, and the other’s heat is gradually declining due to Boss Cai’s flexibility, hence the momentum for surpassing.
However, the topic of where Boss Wang’s limits are suddenly surged to dominance.
This was a summary by fans of Wang Fan’s achievements since his debut.
Starting with rice noodles, various stuffed steamed buns later, then braised meat, various chicken recipes later, followed by barbecue, gaming food, seafood, and he even went to France for cultural export recently, later causing trouble at a Michelin restaurant!
For the first time making salted duck, he directly subdued a century-old brand!
Everyone couldn’t help but wonder, where exactly are the limits of this young boss who is only in his twenties? Is there anything he can’t do?
Wang Fan had just finished his busy work and was cleaning up the kitchenware when he saw Director Liu riding a bicycle to the food truck outside.
Wang Fan smiled and said, "Director Liu, you’re late, everything’s sold out."
Director Liu laughed and said, "That’s really unfortunate, but I came this time specifically to thank you. Without your help, this zoo might really have been hard to maintain."
Wang Fan shrugged, "I don’t dare take credit for it; I just stated the facts."
Director Liu sincerely said, "Even though you say that, I must still represent all the animals and staff at Red Mountain Forest Park to thank you. Additionally, on behalf of all the zoo employees, I extend the most sincere invitation for you to continue your business in front of our gate tomorrow."
Wang Fan grinned, "I can operate, but we need to discuss the stall rental fee properly. If you drive me away, I’ll be upset, at least give me a 20% discount to calm me down."
Upon hearing this, Director Liu shook his head vigorously like a rattledrum, "No way, no way, we’re not the nearly bankrupt zoo we used to be, now we have a large influx of visitors, we’re a rising star among zoos, it’s already good that I’m not raising your rent, and you want a discount?"
Even though the visitor numbers had spiked in recent days, and park income had also soared, the overdue salaries were still not enough to be distributed, so how could they cut into his profits?
Wang Fan couldn’t refrain from laughing heartily, causing Director Liu to sigh with a mixture of helplessness and amusement.
"Trust me, I used to be very generous, but you don’t realize the cost of running a household until you do it; it’s all because of providing fodder for the animals."
