Super Zoo

In the Tingfeng Pavilion, Su Ming opened a bag of cat food and poured it into a row of small bowls in front of him.

Dahei led Miaoyi to Miaosi, one cat with one bowl, and buried his head in eating.

"Well done, everyone has worked hard."

Su Ming sat cross-legged on the bed like a landlord, opened the money box and counted, a total of 880 yuan.

Su Ming did not go far today. It was the first day of the cruise ship opening, and he was not at ease to be a hands-off boss, really leaving everything to the cat. After a brief tour of the wolf house, he turned back and hid in the woods not far away to secretly observe the situation on the lake.

There were only six groups of tourists today. Although the total income was not much, everyone who came paid for the boat. Among them, there were many people, such as the young couple, who spent a lot of money to play with the cats.

These people will become free promoters, and as more and more people come in the future, the income will continue to increase.

There is nothing special about boating itself. If you want to attract people, you have to make some gimmicks. Su Ming has been training these cats to collect money these days, which is novel and in line with the characteristics of the zoo itself.

Theoretically, pets like cats and dogs can indeed do simple money recognition and even change after training.

Of course, this requires long-term professional training, which is often only possible in professional circuses.

Su Ming was not good at the beginning, because his mental power was not enough. Later, with the monkey wine, his mental power skyrocketed every day, and he finally made these cats recognize common money and do simple addition and subtraction.

With Su Ming's current mental power level, if he wants, he can even let the cats recognize all denominations of money and make change skillfully, but that is too shocking.

"And you, although you have no credit, you have also worked hard. Go out and don't bite the big-headed catfish." Su Ming snapped his fingers at the alligator turtle that was peeking out of the door.

As Su Ming became stronger day by day, the alligator turtle became more honest day by day, and even showed a flattering mood today.

As a reward, Su Ming gave it an hour to go out in the lake every day. If it was obedient, the time for going out would be increased in the future. If it was not obedient, Su Ming would naturally have a way to deal with it.

The alligator snapping turtle nodded its head and left with many thanks. Su Ming quietly allocated a trace of his mental power to it, observing its movements at any time.

"Hey, Lao Su! Oh my god, how did you do it? Those cats are amazing!" Wang Hao was on the other end of the phone, his voice excited.

"How did you know?" Su Ming was stunned. He didn't tell this kid about the cat.

"You can go and see, it's all over the Yangchuan Forum!" Wang Hao said.

Yangchuan Forum is a semi-official forum in Yangchuan City, with hundreds of thousands of registered users, most of whom are people working and living in Yangchuan City, and are quite well-known.

Su Ming opened the forum and saw a post floating at the top, pinned at a glance.

"A cat that collects money appeared in the zoo!"

The post seemed to be posted by the young couple in the daytime.

"I am going to the zoo with my husband and daughter today..."

Pictures speak louder than words. Below are more than a dozen photos of cats collecting and changing money, as well as photos of a big black cat guarding the money box in a serious manner. Together with the pictures, the story describes their family's experience today.

The post was posted at 7:30 p.m., and it is only 10:30 now. In just three hours, there have been more than a thousand replies, and the number of views is approaching 100,000.

"Is it true? Is it a circus cat that escaped?"

"It must have been trained. Aren't cats pets? What's so strange about this?"

"You idiot, train one for me!"

"You have never kept a pet before, right? Although it is difficult, it can be trained! You can go to Baidu and search for 'American Golden Retrievers shopping in supermarkets' and you will know. Besides, they are cats from the zoo."

"Cats are so cute and sweet... I am about to melt..."

"The girl above is wet, Remember to hold an umbrella downstairs!"

"Get lost!"

"Please stop talking about cats! What do you have to do with girls?"

"You rascal upstairs..."

"Our classmates were there today and can testify that those cats are awesome!"

"Let's go boating at the zoo tomorrow to see the cats that collect money. Anyone want to go?"

"Let's go, let's go..."

Su Ming was very satisfied. The publicity effect met his expectations. It attracted attention and made an advertisement without spending money, while keeping the sensational effect within the acceptable range of ordinary people's thinking.

In addition to curiosity, some people in the post also raised doubts.

"If there is no administrator, who will rescue tourists if they fall into the water?"

"Will someone rob the money box?"

"It's impossible for the cat to distinguish between real money and fake money? Will someone use fake money?"

Su Ming was not afraid of doubts. No matter what it is these days, the more people question and argue, the more popular it will be. If no one cares, it will be a real trouble. As for the problems mentioned in the post, he naturally considered them.

…

These past two days, I was exhausted from using my mental power to train the cat. Su Ming changed his shift to the afternoon shift today and planned to have a good sleep.

Before 10 o'clock in the morning, he was woken up by the noise outside the pavilion.

“I really want to stay in bed for a while!” Su Ming yawned. Living in the park also has its troubles. Tourists come and go, which will inevitably disturb people's sweet dreams, but they can't be driven away.

Since I couldn't sleep anyway, I got up and washed up casually, then put on my coat and went outside the pavilion.

I saw that all eight boats had already sailed onto the lake. Not far away, there was a group of tourists queuing up at the lakeside, taking photos of the cats collecting money with their mobile phone cameras. The people in the front of the line were not in a hurry to get on the boat, but waved the colorful money around, deliberately teasing a few cats.

Not far away, there were twos and threes of tourists walking towards this side from the path in the woods. It seemed that they also came here because of its reputation.

Until five o'clock in the afternoon, when Su Ming came back from feeding the animals and the zoo was about to close, there were still many people gathered outside the pavilion. Su Ming had to come forward and persuade everyone to leave.

Counting the money in the box, there was actually nearly three thousand!

In other words, these eight boats had no time to spare for eight hours a day, and there was also a lot of "reward money" for the cats.

The forum was even more boiling in the evening, and posts about "cats collecting money" almost dominated the forum.

So much so that the moderator had to come out and make a harsh statement that anyone who opens a new topic about cats for money will be banned for three days.

"Fuck, the moderator is inhuman!"

...

"Director, I didn't expect Xiao Su to have this ability. You haven't seen those cats. He trained them like villains. They are so human. I want to find him and take one home, but I'm too embarrassed to ask."

Sister Tong sat in the director's office with a happy face, chattering: "Look, not only do he have a lot of people, but he also brought up the popularity of our zoo."

"Now we are just trying to get some enthusiasm. If we can maintain half of the current level after stabilization, it will be very good." Director Song said with a smile.

Even so, a small cruise ship business that was originally abandoned has made a profit after only a few days of opening, and it has also driven the growth of zoo tickets. This is really beyond Director Song's expectations.

He took out a business card and handed it to Sister Tong: "Yangchuan TV has a "People's Life" column and wants to interview Xiao Su. This is the reporter's business card. Please receive him."
