Chapter 962 Sheep Horn

Lu Jingxing also nodded: "Where is it? Let's go and see it together."

Ah Hua hurried out: "Outside, that guy is much bigger and not very flexible. Now he has a hard time eating."

Lu Jingxing and the director walked out together. Before walking, Lu Jingxing took a look at the turtle inside and squatted down again: "Wait a minute, I'll help you with the treatment later." As he said this, he wanted to stroke its head out of habit, and then his hand, which was stretched out in the air, finally fell on the uneven back of the big turtle.

The little guy turned his neck and tilted his head in response.

Lu Jingxing stood up with a smile and followed Ahua and the others out of the inner room.

The director waited for him for a while, and when he saw him come out, he followed Ahua out.

"Here..." Ahua led them into the pool.

There were seven or eight mainland tortoises lying inside. When they saw someone coming in, they all raised their heads and looked at the person.

Probably because they saw Ah Hua and thought he was here to feed them, three of them immediately crawled towards them.

Ah Hua waved his hand, walked around them and came directly to the back: "That's it."

The director stood at the entrance and didn't move forward much, while Lu Jingxing walked directly to the place he pointed.

Ah Hua squatted in front of one of the turtles. This turtle was a little different from the others. It had two horns. A turtle with sheep horns? This was the first time Lu Jingxing had seen one.

"The horn below it is too long. Many people say that it affects its movement. It is very hard. Does Doctor Lu have any solution?" Ah Hua squatted beside the mainland tortoise.

This guy weighs at least 20 to 30 kilograms. The shell on its back is yellow-white, and there is also a shell underneath, and two horns. Lu Jingxing knew that these two horns were originally used to help them raise their necks for a long time when courting, but they were usually not this exaggerated.

The big guy grunted and tried to eat the grass on the ground, but he couldn't reach it by stretching his head left and right.

There wasn't much grass, and it was close to the ground, which was indeed a big challenge for it.

After trying for a long time to reach it without success, the man got angry, retracted his head, and stared at the grass in front of him.

"That's right. I have to feed it myself every day so that it can eat well. Otherwise, I can only worry about it..." Ahua picked up the grass beside and fed it directly to its mouth. It immediately started to eat it in big mouthfuls.

It’s just that those two corners are just there, and it always feels awkward no matter how I look at it.

"How long has this been?" While this guy was eating grass seriously, Lu Jingxing reached out and touched it.

This corner was originally its pad, but for some unknown reason, this pad grew deformed and the corners on each side became longer and longer.

It feels hard, just like the turtle shell on its back.

The director also came over and watched silently: "What can we do? This is its shell..." Then he looked around: "Why is it like this?"

Ah Hua nodded: "It's the only one like this. The others are fine, except for that one, but its horns are much smaller. At least it doesn't affect its life. As for this one..."

Lu Jingxing thought for a while before saying, "I have learned about it. It is an accessory. There is no medicine for it. We can only cut it off. It is a minor operation..."

“Just cut it off directly?” The head gardener had never encountered such a situation before.

Lu Jingxing nodded: "Yes, cutting it off won't have much impact on it, or just cut one side and grind it flat, and the head will come out better."

As he spoke, he gestured a cut length: "This is about right."

"If it can be cut off, then it's easy. I'll send it to the store together with the other one later, and you can help me deal with them together." The director thought it would be a big trouble at first, but when he heard Lu Jingxing say that it just needed to be cut off, he was relieved.

"You don't have to send this to us. Just find a decorator with a cutting machine and cut it. I don't have such a machine." Lu Jingxing smiled.

"Ah?" He asked, leaving the headmaster and Ahua a little confused: "Use a cutting machine?"

Lu Jingxing nodded in affirmation: "Yes, the cutting machine can cut tiles, so it is no problem to cut this corner. I only have a small surgical cutting machine, which is not suitable for dealing with such a big corner."

"But, those rough guys..." said the headmaster with some concern.

"No problem, as long as you don't cut its neck, it's fine. Most masters should also be able to do it." Lu Jingxing said.

"It's easy to find people. I'll call and ask our decoration master later. Okay, then this problem is solved. I'll send the one inside to your store later..." The director saw that what Lu Jingxing said made sense, so he no longer worried about who would perform this operation that was not a surgery.

"Okay, then I'll leave first. I'll try to go back as early as possible. Once you've made arrangements, send me a message and I'll ask someone in the store to pick up the phone." Lu Jingxing clapped his hands and stood up.

"Okay, okay. I think I can send you out in an hour or so. There are still some formalities to go through. You can go and take your friends out first. Come, I'll send you out..." The head teacher walked out with a smile.

Lu Jingxing nodded to Ahua and followed him out.

The director walked to the door and turned around: "Ahua, ask someone to put the one inside into the cage. I'll ask someone to load it onto the truck later..."

"Oh, okay..." Ah Hua responded repeatedly and trotted over.

The headmaster was a little slow, and walked to the same row as Lu Jingxing. He said a little embarrassedly, "Xiao Lu, I have something else to ask for your help. Can you give me some advice?"

"Director, please let me know if I can help you." Lu Jingxing turned sideways and said with a modest smile.

"It's like this, our business is becoming less and less prosperous, and we have a lot of tasks to do. I was thinking, your platform is doing well, let's see if there is any chance for cooperation, you can help me promote it, or summer vacation is coming soon, you can help me organize a wave of activities, and you can help promote it online." The headmaster didn't hesitate any more, and directly said what he had been thinking in the past two days.

Now Lu Jingxing and his platform have millions of fans because of their unique videos, but Lu Jingxing never thought about selling products, he just shared daily surgery or rescue videos, very pure. In Longan, a small third-tier city, he is at the top of the pet industry.

The director wants Lu Jingxing to lead the team, and it is actually possible.

Lu Jingxing did not answer immediately. He didn't know what the room for operation was. After all, he had never thought about selling goods, and he didn't know whether his fans would buy it.

The director seemed to see his concerns: "I just want to try it. It doesn't matter what the result is. Don't feel any psychological burden. We also want to report to the higher-ups. At least we have taken action. Whether you do it or not, we are also preparing to organize activities during the summer vacation. It's just that your platform is unanimously favored by everyone, so we brought it up at the meeting. Of course, we also know that you don't usually accept activities, so if you are willing to take it after discussion, we will definitely not let you suffer any loss. And, I also believe that as long as you are willing to take it, the effect will definitely not be bad."

Lu Jingxing scratched his head awkwardly: "Hehe, to tell you the truth, I really have no idea. Now that you've mentioned this, I think you know that we haven't taken any advertisements before, so I don't know what the effect will be. However, I think we can give it a try. Anyway, you also said it's a summer activity. If we have time, we can go back and discuss it internally to see how to do it. Do you think it's okay?"

"Of course, of course, no problem, haha, as long as you say it's possible, I will have completed a big task. Alas, business has been really bad in the past two years..." The director shook his head helplessly.

Although this zoo is the only one in Long'an, that's all it is. It's impossible for too much money to be invested in it, so naturally it hasn't changed much over the years. Every time a new wave of animals arrives, it's hyped up a bit, but the effect is minimal.

The director was also very anxious. He didn't want to hang around like this. If he could organize a few activities every year and promote it more, he would be able to report to his superiors.

Although Lu Jingxing didn't understand the rules and regulations of the zoo's leaders, he still had a general idea of ​​how to do business. If he didn't change, he would just wait for death. However, this was a zoo, not a private enterprise that could not survive without business. It was not easy to close down, but it was even harder to do well.

The zoo director was very polite to him, and since he had the skill of Xinyu, he wanted to protect all the animals even more. Naturally, he also wanted the animals in the zoo to live better. If they lived better, more tourists and better business would come, which seemed to be a must.

He nodded: "No problem, I will definitely take care of this matter, don't worry."

The headmaster laughed and patted his shoulder: "Thank you for your hard work. I think I will have to trouble you again in the future."

"You're welcome. If you have any questions, just call me..." Lu Jingxing made a bell-ringing gesture. When he reached the intersection, he happened to see Ji Ling and his group at the entrance of the Peacock Garden. He pointed over there and said, "Director, let's do this for now. You go ahead and do your work. I'll notify the store to pick up the turtle."

The headmaster also saw the little guys and laughed, "Okay, go play with them. I'll go back to the office first."

With that, the two of them separated.

Lu Jingxing trotted towards Ji Ling and the others.

"Brother, brother..." Unexpectedly, the first person to see him was Xiaobao. He patted Ji Ling's shoulder and jumped up and down, scaring Ji Ling so much that she grabbed him tightly: "Where, where?"

Lu Jingxing had already run over. Seeing him coming, Ji Ling smiled and handed Xiaobao to him. "This guy is very strong and refused to sit in the stroller. He is also very brave. He wants to touch any animal he sees. I dare not let go even for a moment."

"Thank you for your hard work..." Lu Jingxing looked at Ji Ling lovingly, then raised his head to look at Xiao Bao and pinched his little ear: "What, you're not listening anymore?"

The little guy whined to express his dissatisfaction.

Ji Ling smiled and said, "He's not disobedient, he's just a little naughty. Think about how tiring it is for my aunt to take care of him every day..."

Lu Chen and Lu Xi looked inside and saw their brother coming. They ran over immediately and said, "Brother, are you done with your work?"

Lu Jingxing smiled and nodded: "Yes, the turtle may need a small operation. The director will send it to our store later. I have sent a message to Doctor Liu. We can play for another hour or so before going back, okay?"

"Okay." The two little kids knew the nature of their brother's job. It was already very good that he could play with them for such a long time, so they didn't mind at all that they could only play for a few hours.

Besides, although the kittens were taken back by Yang Pei, Hei Hu and the General were still in the car, and they couldn’t play for too long.

Time passed quickly, and we just rushed through the parks behind. Unless a few little ones were particularly interested, they would just stay for a short while and then move on to the next park.

Because everyone found that the longer they played, the more they tacitly became concerned about Black Tiger and the General.

Finally, it was Lu Chen who suggested: "Brother, Sister Lingzi, why don't we go back? I'm really worried about Black Tiger and General staying in the car for so long."

Lu Jingxing and Ji Ling looked at each other and laughed: "Okay, let's go home then."

A few people walked out of the park contentedly. When they were almost at the gate, Lu Jingxing saw from afar a little monkey hanging upside down on a tree, teasing passers-by from time to time, either patting their hats or suddenly hanging upside down to scare the passing children.

But it didn't try to hurt anyone or snatch food from others, so although it would sometimes scream when frightened, it would mostly just smile and no one would blame it.

This also makes it feel like it's having fun.

He just glanced at the people passing by from time to time, afraid of missing Lu Jingxing and his group.

"Hey, isn't that the little monkey?" Ji Ling had the sharpest eyes and spotted the upside-down little monkey at a glance.

Lu Jingxing smiled and nodded: "I asked it to wait for me here, and I took it back to take a bath. I didn't expect that this guy would really wait for me."

Apparently the little monkey had also spotted them, and rushed over in a few steps, squeaking non-stop: "What took you so long? Is the old turtle okay? Is he not dead? Can I go back with you? This is not fun at all."

Lu Chen and Lu Xi had seen the little monkey before, but they had never played with it. When they saw it rushing towards them, they hid behind Lu Jingxing. But seeing that it seemed to be quite familiar with their brother, they became bolder: "Brother, is it the little monkey that often comes to our store?"

Lu Jingxing nodded: "Yes, it's okay, it won't hurt anyone, let's take it back..."

He also took the time to reply to the little monkey: "Why do I feel that you are having a lot of fun? It's fine, I'll reply now, let's go..."

The little monkey jumped happily onto his back, leaving passers-by stunned.

"It just followed us like that?" Ji Ling asked in disbelief.

"It's okay. I've already said hello to the director. It can come back by itself later. Usually it escapes from prison. Today's incident is a good one. At least the director knows it came with me." Lu Jingxing said with a smile.
