A leisurely life: I have a scenic area

Chapter 27 Boss, your skills are amazing!
The day after the insect-catching event was announced, a large number of people arrived at the scenic area with bags, gloves, tweezers, and other tools.

After buying tickets and entering, they headed straight up the mountain.

"Are there really cicada nymphs? Don't lie to me!"

"Catch 30 and you'll break even!"

"Whether they come back or not is irrelevant; the key is to catch them and fry them up!"

"I'm so hungry for it!"

Everyone chatted casually.

Qi Yue stood at the foot of the mountain, watching the people going up to catch insects, and felt a sense of emotion.

Indeed, people are different.

He has no interest in insects at all, and even hates them, but that doesn't stop many people from thinking that insects are delicious.

The Chinese diet is still too complicated.

But that's good, because with them, the mission will be easier to complete.

The system relies entirely on tourists to do the work for him.

They all paid for admission and came to work voluntarily.

Seeing the progress of the mission increasing, Qi Yue was in a good mood and went to the Pet Paradise to train Xiao Huang for a while.

"Little Huang, sit down!"

Qi Yue gave the order.

Xiao Huang is very smart and obedient.

It can understand these simple instructions.

So when Qi Yue gave the order, it immediately sat down.

"Xiao Huang, stand up!"

"Say it twice!"

"Twirl around!"

"Get out of here!"

"shy!"

"Slap! Play dead!"

Qi Yue is playing with a dog on the grass.

At first, the little guy didn't understand some of the instructions, but after a few training sessions, he learned everything.

Its talent even surprised Qi Yue.

It's as if these actions are written into their very blood.

Especially when he was playing dead, Qi Yue made a gun gesture and shot at it.

Xiao Huang immediately lay on his side on the ground, eyes closed, dead as could be.

Qi Yue: Xiao Huang, when did you learn this?
He was just joking, but he didn't expect Xiao Huang to actually do it.

At that moment, a family of three witnessed Qi Yue training the dog.

The child's father praised with a face full of amazement:

"Boss, your skills are amazing!"

"Well done!"

Upon hearing this, Qi Yue smiled in surprise and replied truthfully:
"This little guy is so smart!"

Hearing him say that, the surrounding tourists all thought he was being modest.

If you can train a rabbit, training a dog must be even easier.

Qi Yue didn't know how to explain it.

Little Huang is really clever; he's hardly ever scolded him.

But who cares, as long as everyone's happy.

At this very moment, on the mountain.

The tourists have already started catching bugs.

Although there are more insects at night, many people are already looking for them now.

They strolled among the trees and grass, conducting a thorough search, their eyes wide and sharp, gleaming with lightning speed.

Whenever I find cicada nymphs, I quickly step forward and, smiling, put them into my bag.

"There really are cicada nymphs!"

"This boss is so nice!"

"I hope he doesn't lose money, since every event he organizes is so successful!"

"We'll participate in any events that come up."

Everyone was smiling and happily searching for insects.

There are a lot of cicada nymphs this season.

There are even more at night; they all come out when the light shines on them.

The scenic area closes at 10 pm every night during these last few hours, and tourists who know how to catch cicada nymphs can catch them every time.

"We're rich! We're rich! Luckily we got here early!"

"I'm going to blow up all these cicada nymphs when I get back today!"

The tourists were very excited.

In the afternoon, another wave of tourists arrived.

There were already quite a few people on the mountain, a large group of about a hundred.

The newly arrived bug-catching team saw that others were already catching bugs and asked:
Are there any cicada nymphs?

Some remained silent, while others, eager to show off, opened their bags and exclaimed excitedly:

"There are so many, I've caught seventy or eighty already!"

The newly arrived insect-catching team was particularly envious when they saw the cicada nymphs in the bag.

"so much?"

"The ticket was only 30 yuan, but they caught 70 or 80 bugs?"

"Then the boss is losing a fortune!"

The newly arrived bug-catching team was somewhat annoyed. Too bad they were too late!

The best times to catch bugs are either in the morning or right now.

They also hurriedly began searching everywhere for cicada nymphs.

Those who come here are either people who love to eat insects or people who want to catch insects to sell.

Such people are very enthusiastic.

Qi Yue stood at the foot of the mountain, gazing at the situation on the mountain.

There were more people than he had expected.

It seems the cicadas in the mountains are going to suffer a calamity this year.

That's good, though, at least there will be less noise.

Qi Yue then went to the Pet Paradise to check on its condition.

There are a lot of people lately, and there are clearly not enough animals.

Little cows, little sheep, little pigs, little rabbits—there's always something missing.

Qi Yue most wanted to buy a capybara, also known as a water capybara.

This guy is known for his good temper in the animal kingdom, and always looks like he's about to die.

It has a great personality and is suitable for a petting zoo.

But now a Capiba costs about 60,000 to 100,000 yuan. If Qi Yue buys a few more, the price will be close to 500,000 yuan.

A calf, a lamb, or a pig, together, would only cost tens of thousands of yuan.

You can change it when you grow up.

Moreover, raising Kapibals requires the creation of a suitable environment.

For example, you could build them a pond or a nest, and the cost of feed would be considerable.

"It would be great if the system rewarded us with a few Kapibals; it would save us a lot of money."

"But it's also troublesome. After all, you need a license to keep a Kapibal. It's hard to explain when a Kapibal suddenly appears. I hope they don't send me to jail."

Qi Yue knew that the rarer the animal, the stricter the management.

It's better to follow the proper procedures.

"I'll buy Kapibala when I have the money."

"We can buy some sika deer and rubber ducks first, and then build a children's playground, ball pit, and the like."

Qi Yue continued with his planning.

Just then, Qi Yue saw Xiao Huang chasing after a rabbit.

The rabbit only needed to increase its speed slightly to easily evade Little Yellow's pursuit.

Seeing this, Qi Yue was also relieved that the rabbit didn't intend to attack Xiao Huang.

Otherwise, if a rabbit kicks down, Little Yellow might not be able to withstand it.

Next, Qi Yue checked the system task panel.

"Task progress: 4782/10000"

In just one day, the tourists have almost completed half of the task.

"The speed is fast enough. At this rate, the mission will definitely be completed the day after tomorrow."

"And the day after tomorrow is Saturday, there will be even more people coming then, and the mission will definitely be accomplished."

"This mission is easy."

Qi Yue thought to himself.

Seeing the progress of the task, Qi Yue became increasingly relaxed.

I didn't eat any boxed lunches that night; I went home and cooked my own meal.

another beautiful day.

The next day, Qi Yue went to buy sika deer.

This is also a species that is friendly to humans, and they can be kept free-range outside the petting zoo.

Develop good feeding habits and get them used to eating the food provided by the scenic area.

Visitors can feed the animals if they wish.

Its popularity will also be high.

There are quite a few deer farms now; these days people raise all sorts of things, even crocodiles.

So buying a sika deer isn't a big problem.

Soon, the sika deer were bought back, a total of six, all of them about six months old.

Each one is exceptionally lively and very approachable.

Li Yu and Zhu Kun, the employees in charge of the petting zoo, were very happy to see the adorable little sika deer.

Both of them have a love for animals.

"Boss, we can raise sika deer too! That's great!"

Li Yu exclaimed in amazement.

Qi Yue laughed and said, "We have to buy some more. I've seen a lot of popular pet parks with alpacas, capybaras, and lots of photo spots."

"It feels a bit desolate here."

"After this weekend, we'll prepare some activities for the kids. Like catching rabbits or chickens, and the reward will be a big plush toy."

"We need to attract tourists to come back again and again."

Hearing Qi Yue's words, Li Yu was somewhat surprised: "Catch rabbits? These few?"

"Of course not, let's buy some more white rabbits, they're easy to catch."

"It's fine for kids to play with."

Qi Yue responded.

Then, he looked into the distance and saw that there were still many people catching insects on the mountainside.

This made him feel very at ease.

And silently repeat to yourself:
Come on!
