Chapter 374: It's Truly Awkward!
Chapter 374: It's Truly Awkward!
Upon arriving at the grassland, Lin Muxue and Liu Qian immediately sought out Zhang Lin.
Liu Qian approached Zhang Lin and asked, "Mr. Zhang, is the grassland ready to be opened to the public?"
Zhang Lin countered, "What do you think?"
Liu Qian replied without hesitation, "I believe there's no issue. Many scenic spots operate while still under construction. Our grassland is almost ready."
Zhang Lin nodded, "Indeed, we plan to open soon. So, we need to purchase some animals, especially horses. For 50,000 acres of land, we'll need quite a few horses. Let's order 500 horses first, and you can decide on the rest."
"Alright," Liu Qian nodded in agreement.
This wasn't a big deal; Liu had purchased horses before, and they could simply place another order with the same supplier.
The supplier also sold other animals.
After giving instructions to Liu Qian, Zhang Lin called Tang Wan.
Soon after, Tang Wan arrived.
Naturally, she rushed over after receiving a call from the boss.
"Boss, what's the matter?" Tang Wan asked promptly.
Zhang Lin got straight to the point, "After the farm, there will be over 500 horses and other animals arriving. You need to inspect them thoroughly and ensure they're problem-free before entering the ranch."
Tang Wan nodded, "Boss, I understand. We'll guard the checkpoint and ensure there won't be any issues."
Upon returning to the office center, Liu Qian began making arrangements and contacted the ranch that had previously supplied the horses.
Given the substantial order, the ranch responded swiftly, and the first batch of 500 horses arrived promptly.
Tang Wan and her team were already waiting at the grassland entrance, equipped with inspection equipment, ready to examine the horses.
Zhang Lin and Lin Muxue also waited at the grassland entrance.
After all, 500 horses arriving at once was quite a sight, even if they weren't worth much individually. The sight was already quite spectacular.
The farm staff assigned to the grassland, especially those responsible for animal care, were all present.
Soon, a transport convoy entered the grassland.
As the vehicles came to a stop, the sound of horses neighing could be heard from within.
Tang Wan, along with four veterinarians and grassland staff, approached the horses to begin the inspection.
A middle-aged man stepped forward and immediately asked Zhang Lin, "Excuse me, who is Mr. Zhang from Liyuan Farm?"
"I am Zhang Lin," Zhang Lin replied.
The middle-aged man hurriedly shook hands with Zhang Lin, "Mr. Zhang, I'm Wu Fei, an animal trainer from the Fujian Provincial Livestock Center. I've accompanied this batch of horses to help calm their emotions and prevent them from becoming agitated and refusing to eat, causing unnecessary issues."
"Thank you, Mr. Wu," Zhang Lin said, knowing that the grassland's dogtooth grass had properties that attracted animals and prevented agitation and anorexia. Still, he politely acknowledged Wu Fei's efforts.
Wu Fei smiled, "It's no trouble. I should do this. I'll also train some animal trainers for you, so they can handle situations when these horses become agitated in the future."
Soon, Tang Wan's team finished inspecting the horses, and the cleared horses were unloaded and led into the grassland by the staff.
Seeing this, Wu Fei invited Zhang Lin to enter the grassland, saying, "Mr. Zhang, a grassland without animal trainers is incomplete. Animal trainers are the key."
He pointed at the horses being led in, "For example, these horses were confined during quarantine and then transported, so they're quite anxious. When they first arrive at the grassland, they might refuse to eat, and that's when animal trainers are needed..."
However, as Wu Fei spoke, his words caught in his throat. The horses, once led into the grassland, suddenly became lively and started nibbling on the dogtooth grass right in front of Wu Fei, seemingly attracted by the system-produced grass.
"..." Wu Fei froze, feeling inexplicably embarrassed as his cheeks warmed. He watched the horses, which had just arrived at the ranch, happily munching on the grass.
He was about to mention that they might get agitated and stop eating in a new environment.
But these horses were not giving him any face.
Unbothered by Wu Fei's embarrassment, the horses continued to happily munch on the dog-tooth grass, chirping and whinnying in delight.
The staff released the horse ropes, and the horses pranced around on their four legs, expressing their joy.
The dog-tooth grass seemed to have a special appeal to animals.
One of the foals even ran a short distance before lying down on its own, rubbing its head and body against the lush dog-tooth grass, unconcerned about the grass beneath it.
This behavior seemed a little agitated and anxious.
Embarrassed, Wu Fei said, "These horses must be of the optimistic type, just like some humans who are always cheerful and don't feel out of place in new environments."
What else could he say about these exceptional horses? It was just a coincidence.
Just then, several more horses that had passed the inspection were led in by the staff.
Wu Fei immediately turned his attention to these new arrivals. Surely not every horse could be so carefree?
It was time for him to demonstrate his expertise and show the Liyuan Farm staff what a professional looks like.
But something unexpected happened, leaving Wu Fei stunned.
The correct version of this novel is available at 69 Book Bar! 6=9+Book_Bar.
These horses, like the previous ones, lowered their heads and began munching on the grass, chirping and whinnying happily.
"What the...?" Wu Fei felt something was amiss.
Were these horses also of the optimistic type? But he had just made up the term; there was no such thing as an optimistic horse.
This was highly illogical.
After being quarantined for so long and transported over such a distance, how could these horses not be agitated? Why weren't they showing signs of anxiety in a new environment?
This was an unusual situation; domesticated animals typically feel insecure when introduced to a new place.
Why was this different from what he knew? It shouldn't be like this.
Soon, more batches of horses that had passed the inspection were led in.
Wu Fei was still hopeful, but these horses continued to embarrass him. They ate the dog-tooth grass right in front of him and then ran towards the other horses that had arrived earlier, chirping and whinnying.
"Impossible..." Wu Fei muttered to himself.
The behavior of these horses made him feel incredibly embarrassed.
Then, over twenty more horses that had passed the inspection were brought in, and without exception, each one was attracted to the Quality 2 Dog-Tooth Grass.
The attribute 'Loved by Pasture Animals +2' made these horses genuinely fond of their new home as soon as they arrived.
"..." Wu Fei gradually became numb. In his many years of experience, this was the first time he had encountered such a situation.
But he believed this was an exceptional case. It was impossible for all 500 horses to behave this way.
He was sure there would be some normal ones.
He still had a chance to showcase his skills.
However, after most of the 500 horses had been inspected, the normal horses he was waiting for did not appear.
These 500 horses gathered together, chirping and whinnying, rubbing against each other, and happily munching on the dog-tooth grass. They seemed to have lived here for a long time.
The staff from the grassland led them deeper into the grassland, and the horses followed without hesitation, trotting with light and cheerful steps.
Wu Fei was truly astonished by this sight.
It was indeed very embarrassing!
