Chapter 1329

~7 min read 1,385 words

The giant panda Rong Rong is a rare short-faced panda among a rare group, and its appearance is more popular than the other type of long-faced panda.

If it weren't for the unique geographical advantage, the Shancheng Zoo would never have been able to lease it and Mao Mao.

Now, this round-headed and round-brained panda was holding the plump bamboo shoot, eating it bite by bite, lifting its feet while eating, and its round body was sitting solidly on the ground, not at all like the previous bored appearance of taking a bite and throwing it away!

It made Qiao Yu and her colleague not dare to breathe.

The colleague even leaned to the door and asked quietly: "What variety is this bamboo?"

You know, ever since Rong Rong started being a picky eater, the Shancheng Zoo had prepared 60 varieties of bamboo, and all the bamboo on the panda's menu had been brought in.

Whether it was bamboo leaves, bamboo stalks, or bamboo shoots, spring shoots or winter shoots, everything was arranged. But Rong Rong didn't like to eat, so it didn't like to eat, and no matter how they coaxed it, there was no way.

Well, not eating bamboo wasn't a big deal anyway. After all, bamboo fiber is coarse and has no nutritional elements, and bamboo shoots even have toxins... Giant pandas in zoos often hold bamboo and eat it all day long purely because there isn't much energy in it, so they just eat and eat to reduce consumption.

But the problem is, it stopped eating bamboo, and it had no interest in apples or milk. It only ate two bites of the special nutritional meal every day, and for the rest, it would just take one bite and that was it.

It sounds like as long as there are enough varieties, it could be full by taking one bite of each—but that's for ordinary animals. For a giant panda of this size, eating like that simply cannot maintain the required nutrition.

In short, it finally finished a bamboo shoot completely and even impatiently. Qiao Yu was overjoyed while preparing more bamboo shoots with her colleague, and she shook her head and replied: "I don't know what variety it is. It seems like they just dug it up casually in the bamboo forest at their doorstep."

Colleague: "..."

She looked at Rong Rong, who was searching everywhere in the park: "Very good, now it's Rong Rong's turn to not be full from one."

Qiao Yu turned around instantly, only to see Rong Rong had already rushed over quickly. With its size, if it hadn't been raised for a long time, it would really look very scary!

The next moment, Rong Rong hugged her leg: "Ying ying!"

"Ying ying ying!"

Qiao Yu was dumbfounded.

And the colleague looked at the pile of bamboo shoots it still had no interest in, and at this moment, she decisively took out her walkie-talkie: "I'm going to call the leader."

The leader walked over as if he had wind and fire wheels under his feet, and asked as soon as he opened his mouth: "What variety of bamboo is it? Where is the origin? Which supplier?"

Qiao Yu was pulled off balance by Rong Rong, and at this moment, she said with difficulty: "Leader, have you forgotten? I just applied to you..."

She stared at Rong Rong, who was begging her pitifully, and said helplessly: "This was even something I got from a lucky draw."

Until Qiao Yu pushed Rong Rong away with a struggle, this round-headed and round-brained big guy was still crying aggrievedly behind her. Thinking about how she was still pregnant, it was like the most pitiful mother in the world.

Qiao Yu didn't even dare to look back!

Later, she was pulled into the conference room by a group of people, and under the watchful eyes of everyone, she projected the livestream: "... It's this one. I clicked into it unintentionally, and seeing that there were quite a lot of viewers, I just joined in the fun..."

Who knew she would actually win.

The next moment, the leader made a quick decision: "Call them now, purchase immediately!"

But Qiao Yu fiddled with her phone for a long time, and at this moment, she also said helplessly: "There is no phone number. There is nothing in the shop... and no one replied to the messages in the background."

But the leader was still watching. How could she not find a solution? It would make her look very incompetent. So Qiao Yu racked her brains, and finally, after a barrage of inquiries to the two online shops, she received a reply from the other party—

【Hello dear, the bamboo shoots are not for sale.】

Qiao Yu:...

Everyone:...

And at the Old Song family, Zhang Yanping logged into the online shop that usually had nothing as usual, and found 99+ unread messages in the background, most of which came from the same person. His heart skipped a beat!

This must be someone looking for trouble!

Opening it to take a look—

【Hello, are the bamboo shoots for sale?】

【Hello, we are looking for large-scale, long-term procurement】

【Hello, we are from the Shancheng Zoo...】

【Please rest assured, I am definitely not a scammer. You can come to our zoo to sign a contract...】

【Hello, is it convenient? Our zoo can send someone over to sign a contract!】

【...】

The tone became increasingly anxious, and the honorifics became more and more cautious. If they didn't reply, the zoo people might call the livestream platform directly.

Zhang Yanping had a numb face, thinking that they had finally made it big; the bamboo shoots at home were now feeding pandas!

The next moment, he hurriedly went downstairs to call Song Tan: "Tan Tan! The Shancheng Zoo wants to purchase our bamboo shoots for their giant panda!"

This stone stirred up a thousand waves!

A giant panda!

The Old Song family all gathered around. Aunt Lianhua even took out her phone and sent a voice message to Wu Lan: "Come back quickly, the zoo wants to use our bamboo shoots to feed a giant panda!"

"What?!" Wu Lan was picking tea and was startled when she heard the news: Oh my god! How much bamboo does a giant panda eat in a year! What if it gets stolen by someone in their bamboo forest later!

She was worried, already imagining the scene of them secretly putting up a fence outside the bamboo forest. She didn't even know if they should charge a fee if the villagers wanted to come and see the panda!

When she returned home and heard Zhang Yanping's explanation, she breathed a sigh of relief.

"It's good that they aren't sending the panda over, otherwise I'm afraid Da Wang wouldn't be able to watch it..."

You can stop a panda, but you can't stop the people outside!

Song Tan couldn't laugh or cry: "Mom, what are you thinking? This bamboo forest at our doorstep, even if you add the one by the pond, is only two or three mu of land. How could they be willing to send a panda over?"

Song Sancheng hesitated: "Then if we rent a mountain and plant dozens of mu of bamboo, will the panda come?"

Song Tan:...

Forget it. In this bamboo forest of theirs, they hadn't even seen a bamboo rat, and giant panda wild release wasn't even in their city's range.

But now the problem is—

"The zoo wants long-term procurement, but there aren't that many bamboo shoots!"

They can dig them in spring and winter, but what about the long summer and autumn?

Even if she used spiritual energy to urge them layer by layer, the habits of local bamboo aren't like that. This is unreasonable!

Lu Chuan calmed down: "After all, it's a national treasure. Why don't we ask Secretary Xiao Zhu if their procurement counts as a political task?"

If that's the case, once the supply contract is signed, there will be many subsequent problems. Untimely supply, quality issues, supply volume...

And if they don't supply—

That's a giant panda!

Looking at Qiao Qiao's flushed cheeks with excitement, if they didn't give it, he would be the first to shed tears of disappointment, right?!
