"What's all that noise?"
As the clamor from outside reached him, Yang Lin, who had been sleeping soundly, immediately woke up.
He looked up and saw the pack of ravenous saber-toothed vipers in the aquarium on the table not far away.
Even after a night without food, they were still so energetic.
Seeing this, Yang Lin became even more grateful for the way he had handled them.
With such tenacious vitality, what would be their match if they were released into natural waters?
He casually tossed a steamed bun into the aquarium to prevent them from starving, put on his clothes, and walked out of the room. kan shu wu. xi
He soon arrived at the park office.
Just as he walked into the park office, Chen Kexin excitedly approached him.
"Cousin, there are so many people outside looking for you. Representatives from the Aquatic Life Research Association, the Paleontology Research Association, and the Animal Protection Association. Even people from the documentary channel have arrived."
"They all want to enter the underground cave you discovered yesterday. Would you like to go out and meet them?"
Hearing Chen Kexin's words, Yang Lin finally understood why it was so noisy outside.
However, he did not seem too surprised, as he had already anticipated such a situation during his livestream yesterday.
"Let's go out and take a look."
After a moment of contemplation, Yang Lin walked out of the office.
Soon, he arrived at the construction site of the cave.
The moment his figure appeared, a crowd immediately swarmed towards him.
"Director Yang, we are from the Institute of Paleontology of Longguo and would like to inquire about the situation inside the cave."
"Director Yang, we are from the Longguo Academy of Natural Sciences..."
"Director Yang, we are from the Longguo Documentary Channel..."
"Director Yang, we are from the World Wildlife Conservation Association."
...
Listening to the barrage of questions from everyone, Yang Lin was momentarily confused about who was who.
But to him, it didn't matter; they were all big shots he couldn't afford to offend.
The next second, under everyone's gaze, he took out a large megaphone from behind.
"Everyone, please be quiet and listen to me for a moment."
As soon as he spoke, everyone present froze.
Seeing that everyone had quieted down, Yang Lin nodded with satisfaction.
"I understand everyone's feelings. I also know that the new species discovered in the cave are a major discovery for the entire scientific community."
"However, I want to point out that the ecological environment in the cave is extremely fragile compared to the outside, and the creatures inside are very dependent on this environment."
"Therefore, without protective measures, I do not recommend anyone entering. If any damage is done, that would not be the outcome anyone wants to see, right?"
Hearing Yang Lin's words, everyone present nodded in agreement.
The underground cave, after millions of years of evolution, had already formed a complete underground ecosystem.
If so many people rushed in, it would inevitably cause widespread destruction.
"So, Director Yang, what is your suggestion?" an old professor from the Academy of Natural Sciences suddenly asked.
"My suggestion is that we prioritize protection before exploration."
"For example, we could establish a laboratory here at Xihong Zoo. We'll provide the location, and you only need to contribute some funds and personnel. We can research it together."
As he spoke, Yang Lin couldn't help but devise his own plan.
Xihong Zoo, to this day, besides lacking in various infrastructures and animal numbers, also had a significant weakness in technological support.
For instance, Bashu Zoo had a Giant Panda Research Center, Diannan Zoo had its own Wildlife Gene Bank, and Yuedong Zoo had a Wildlife Research Center.
These research institutions, during the development of their respective zoos, either undertook animal breeding and endangered species introduction, or were responsible for animal gene screening and artificial cultivation.
Although Yang Lin had special abilities, they were not omnipotent. After all, technology was the mainstream in this world.
If he could trick these state-level research institutions into establishing laboratories at Xihong Zoo, it would bring immense benefits to the future development of Xihong Zoo.
As Yang Lin looked at everyone with anticipation, they all revealed thoughtful expressions, clearly somewhat swayed by Yang Lin's proposal.
Soon, the Longguo Academy of Natural Sciences was the first to respond.
"I think Director Yang's words make sense. In fact, before this, our Academy of Natural Sciences had already considered establishing a branch at Xihong Zoo."
"Our Institute of Paleontology had this idea as soon as Director Yang discovered Gigantopithecus."
...
Subsequently, various institutions expressed their intentions one after another.
A preliminary agreement was quickly reached.
These top domestic research institutions would jointly fund and establish a joint laboratory at Xihong Zoo, which would research the underground cave ecosystem while assisting Xihong Zoo with its daily scientific work.
If this joint laboratory were officially established, it would undoubtedly become the highest-spec ecological experimental base in the entire Longguo.
Seeing the sincerity of these research institutions, Yang Lin did not hesitate and said mysteriously:
"Although everyone cannot enter the cave for the time being, it doesn't mean we can't conduct research from the outside."
"By chance, I brought out some unique Yang's saber-toothed vipers from the underground river yesterday."
As soon as Yang Lin finished speaking, the researchers present immediately became animated.
"Are those the strange fish that appeared during your livestream yesterday?"
"How did Director Yang capture them?" kan shu la
"How many are there? Can we take a few back?"
"If the quantity is scarce, we are willing to purchase them. We strongly suspect that these... Yang's saber-toothed vipers are creatures from the late Cenozoic Quaternary period."
"No, we think they should be from the Tertiary period..."
...
Seeing that everyone's interest was fully captured by the saber-toothed vipers, Yang Lin immediately said:
"The number is not very large, but how can scientific research be about money?"
"How about this, I'll give a few to each institution."
Hearing Yang Lin's words, everyone present offered their sincere thanks again.
Soon, Yang Lin led everyone back to Xihong Zoo and distributed the saber-toothed vipers from the aquariums one by one.
To ordinary people, these looked like ugly monsters, but to these researchers, they were treasures of immeasurable value.
The way they looked at the saber-toothed vipers made Yang Lin's scalp tingle.
Just as Yang Lin was giving away these saber-toothed vipers, which he didn't know how to handle otherwise, as a favor, the Longguo Animal Protection Association found him, bringing with them both very bad news and good news.
ps: Time is limited, so I won't be able to write much these days.
Goodnight, darlings.
