Chapter 285: It's Definitely True
......
After the examination, Tang Wan finally confirmed that both pandas were indeed pregnant.
The entire zoo bustled with activity in response.
With panda pregnancies, there were numerous precautions and preparations to be made.
Additionally, they had to separate the pandas from Yuan Yuan to prevent any further mischief.
Otherwise, things could easily go awry.
"I never thought they'd actually be pregnant," County Magistrate Liu exclaimed with delight. Without hesitation, he turned to Zhao Han and said, "We need to assign a dedicated tourism police officer to this area."
"Yes, County Magistrate Liu," Zhao Han agreed promptly.
Previously, there were only three pandas, but now with the pregnancies, things were different.
It wasn't just about the increase in numbers; it represented a successful breeding effort.
The significance was entirely different.
One could say that panda breeding facilities across the country would have dedicated tourism police on duty.
Now, Yu City had to keep up and demonstrate their attention to this matter.
For County Magistrate Liu, this meant spending the entire day at the zoo, monitoring the situation.
In the evening, they went to the restaurant for dinner before returning to the county.
Moreover, as soon as he arrived at the county, he instructed the publicity department to go to the zoo farm and gather information, and then promote the panda pregnancies to the public, showcasing the remarkable achievements of Yu City's panda breeding program.
For them, this was an opportunity to enhance Yu City's reputation.
After Tang Wan had made arrangements for the pandas, the others began filling out inspection logs. When all the work was done, she finally realized the magical turn of events in the panda park she was in charge of.
Then, she remembered something—she had promised to inform her teacher when there was news about this matter.
So, she immediately contacted her teacher to report the situation.
Meanwhile, Liu Song was in the research institute, observing something in a container.
It was a panda cell activation serum, a crucial step in their current project's research and development.
If this step succeeded, they would secure substantial investment for subsequent stages.
After a day and a night had passed, he had forgotten about the panda incident at Liyuan Farm.
After all, for him, it should have been a misunderstanding; such an occurrence was unimaginable.
When he received Tang Wan's call, he recalled the matter.
"Tang Wan, how is it possible? The instruments must have malfunctioned regarding the panda pregnancies, right?" Liu Song asked as he answered the call.
Tang Wan immediately explained, "Teacher, it doesn't seem to be the case. We purchased new equipment for the zoo, and when we tested the two pandas, we found that they are indeed pregnant."
"But in such a short time, it's completely illogical as you said."
Liu Song was taken aback by this news. "How can this be? Could it be that the serum your boss bought is actually effective?" he asked, his eyebrows furrowing unconsciously as he glanced at his own experiment.
If such a serum existed, the implications for their research would be terrifying, to say the least.
The emergence of such technology would significantly impact those in related fields.
For instance, his current research project might be put on hold, and further investment could be withheld.
This would be a massive disaster for him, resulting in not only a loss of status and reputation but also financial setbacks.
And it wasn't just him; anyone in the related industry conducting such research would face similar consequences.
Why would someone be able to develop such technology without any trace?
Moreover, they didn't receive any news from the industry, which was unexpected.
This also means that the other party had been planning to make a splash, while their similar research would be completely overshadowed.
Upon hearing Tang Wan's honest words, she immediately explained, "Teacher, the drug my boss gave me seems to be worth more than just a few million. Previously, he was just tricking me into giving the pandas the injection, that's what he said."
"Actually, my boss just bought a secret formula from an old veterinarian. This old vet doesn't even have a business license; he's just a traveling quack. And the medicine he concocted is only meant for cows."
"That old vet is quite famous in Yuecheng. Even the officials in Yuecheng know about this old veterinarian."
Upon hearing this, Liu Song was stunned for a moment.
If some research institute had secretly developed this, it would be slightly more understandable.
After all, they are all high-end professionals with advanced knowledge and are experts in panda research.
But now, being told that it's just an old veterinarian's concoction, how could he accept it?
These high-end professionals spent so much time researching and attracted so many investments, yet they couldn't even compare to an old vet's folk remedy.
If this news got out, how big of a sensation would it create?
At the very least, those online spectators who love to gossip and don't understand the situation would definitely mock them.
Moreover, if someone's folk remedy has such effects, why would they still invest in panda breeding and cultivation? How could their research continue?
This is absolutely not good news for them.
Their research might even be completely shelved, and they don't know how many people would be affected.
Therefore, he quickly said, "Tang Wan, do you believe in such nonsense?"
"Um, it's not about whether I believe it or not. It seems like this is the fact," Tang Wan replied, unsure of how to explain.
According to her knowledge, this seemed unreliable and fundamentally impossible.
Those old veterinarians should be frauds.
But now, the facts are right in front of her, and those two pandas are indeed pregnant.
Liu Song hurriedly said, "Tang Wan, think carefully. How could this be possible? It's just a coincidence, and it's possible that you didn't check carefully during your previous inspections. In fact, those two pandas might have gotten pregnant even earlier."
"But I always inspect very carefully." Tang Wan didn't think it was her mistake. She was certain about this because she always made two records during her inspections.
Hearing this, Liu Song was a bit unhappy. "Then explain, what's going on here?"
"Huh?" Tang Wan was taken aback by the question. Should she call her teacher to ask? So, facing this problem, she could only reply awkwardly, "It must be a coincidence, right?"
"It's just a coincidence," Liu Song confirmed. Seeing that the student didn't refute further, he also breathed a sigh of relief.
After hanging up the call, his brows furrowed again. He took out a phone and dialed a number, "Supervisor Chu, I have something to report to you. There's an old veterinarian in Yuecheng who seems to be selling fake drugs and even selling them to the panda breeding facility."
"This matter should be handled. At the very least, he should be arrested and locked up; otherwise, it will greatly impact our panda research. It might even cause the death of a panda."
Hearing this, the person on the other end immediately responded, "Teacher Liu, there's such a thing? Rest assured, I will send people to Yuecheng to investigate the situation."
