start with a pet store

Chapter 861 Aquarium

Lu Jingxing shook his head: "No, even if they are willing, their parents won't be willing. Just keep it here with us. Don't let it go out and suffer anymore. As for those students, if they come, you should take good care of them." Thank them, for this fee, they are high school students, the fee... let's forget about applying for relief funds..."

"Okay, I think this is the only way..." Liao Xiangyu nodded: "I will negotiate with the students..."

Lu Jingxing pulled out some pieces of paper and wiped his hands: "Tomorrow is Saturday. The surgery will be scheduled for next week. Let me know a day in advance and I will come too..."

When Yang Pei heard him talk about surgery, he exaggeratedly told Liao Xiangyu about the morning's surgery: "You don't know, that morning's surgery, you know, it was such a difficult surgery for us, he was like a flying knife It’s the same, it makes me so angry that I don’t even dare to show off..."

Lu Jingxing listened to what he said, smiled, and raised his hand: "Don't be so exaggerated, it's not a major surgery at all. Okay, I'll withdraw. There are two more surgeries over there in the afternoon... "

The two of them sent him to the door and watched him walk away. Yang Pei put his arm on Liao Xiangyu's shoulder: "Hey, you said, you didn't even see him go out to study. How can he be so good at learning without a teacher?" ..." He really couldn't figure it out.

Liao Xiangyu laughed: "If you can't figure it out, don't think about it. I'm not trying to compete. Just be yourself. You're very nice too..."

"That's true, haha..." Yang Pei was not modest at all: "At least my skills are still good..."

The two laughed and walked into the store.

Lu Jingxing returned to the store and had another busy afternoon.

The next day was Saturday. Just the day before yesterday, a strange person sent him a text message.

"Boss Lu, the city aquarium is holding an event these days. I got three tickets for you. Come and play when you have time."

Lu Jingxing was a little confused. He didn't use text messages much, so he didn't expect that someone would suddenly send him a message.

Since the other party sent the text message, he definitely didn't want Lu Jingxing to know his identity.

And it seems that the other party knows him very well, and if he is convinced, he will definitely go and take a look.

"Three tickets, who should I go to..." Lu Jingxing thought about it seriously. Ji Ling had already gone to school, and the store had to maintain normal work, so it would be inappropriate to go to Song Yuan and the others.

Finally he decided to take Lu Chen and Lu Xi with him.

He even deliberately kept it secret and didn't tell them.

Today, the sun is shining and the weather is perfect. Lu Chen and Lu Xi have been waiting downstairs with their aunt early in the morning. Their aunt and uncle happened to be going to a drinking party today. They also said they were not interested in visiting the aquarium. Otherwise, Lu Jingxing would definitely still look for them. That person will get two more tickets.

Lu Jingxing walked out of the car wearing sunglasses and flipped his hair coolly: "Let's take you to the aquarium..."

Lu Chen and Lu Xi didn't react when they heard that their brother was going to take them to the aquarium.

Lu Chen asked in disbelief: "Really or not? Brother is free to accompany us today?"

Lu Jingxing smiled and said, "I'm going to visit the aquarium, not the amusement park, but it's a bit far, and the schedule may only take a day. But don't worry, I'll take you to have a meal with me after shopping."

Lu Jingxing picked up the car key in his hand and unlocked the car in the distance.

"Get in the car, we're leaving now."

"Great!"

After driving for two hours, we arrived at the aquarium in Linxian County. This was a newly opened aquarium, and Lu Jingxing was shocked.

In my impression, the aquarium seemed quite small, but now it seems that it covers an area as large as several football fields, a little smaller than the zoo.

After getting out of the car, Lu Jingxing immediately took a map from the publicity board.

As expected, even the aquarium is now built like a zoo. It not only has its own exclusive food area and shopping area, but also has a dedicated performance venue.

Lu Jingxing still remembered that a few years ago everyone was arguing about animal performances, but he thought it was nonsense.

Not every bird is suitable to fly high in the sky. Some birds may be born to sing loudly in a cage. Freedom is relative to the individual, not imposed by the audience.

As Zhuangzi said: "The joy of fish is not the fish's safety."

If there is no cruelty to animals, we may not be qualified to point out this matter from the moral high ground.

What's more, for some animals that lack the ability to survive in the wild, this kind of realization of self-worth may be a better way out.

Maybe he was thinking too much. After Lu Jingxing checked his mobile phone number with the staff, the staff let Lu Jingxing and his younger siblings in.

Lu Chen and Lu Xi looked very excited. This was their first time at the aquarium.

As soon as I walked in, the lights in front of me became dim. The first thing I passed was a long panoramic tunnel. The entire tunnel was separated by glass. From inside the tunnel, I could see some fish outside.

"Wow, brother, look, it's a shark." Lu Chen pointed at a huge creature. Maybe it didn't look very big in the sea, but here it was also the largest of all the fish.

"Brother, why do you think the sharks in the aquarium don't eat other small fish?" Xiao Xi asked in confusion.

"There must be a breeder who feeds him something else, so he doesn't eat small fish." Lu Jingxing explained patiently: "Think about it, if you could eat braised pork and rice today, would you still be willing to eat it every day? Do you want to eat sauerkraut and canned food?" Lu Xi bit her finger: "But sauerkraut and canned food are also delicious."

Lu Jingxing smiled awkwardly: "Maybe sharks' appetites are different from yours."

After watching for a while, they continued walking inside.

The next show started at three in the afternoon, so they still had a few hours to wander around.

However, there were only morning and afternoon performances today. On the scrolling electronic sign, it was written that there would be special guests for the afternoon performance.

The person who sent him the message was probably this special guest, Lu Jingxing thought.

Lu Chen, who was on the side, pulled Lu Jingxing towards an exhibition area: "Brother, I also want to see the fun things there."

Looking along Lu Chen's fingers, several pipes connected several glass houses, and small brown-gray animals were shuttled inside the pipes.

There was a salesperson selling things nearby, and Lu Jing walked over. It turned out that they were selling freeze-dried products. There were more than a dozen small water chestnuts living in these glass houses. Visitors could go outside the tube protruding from the middle of the glass house. , feed Minase.

Minase will stick his hand out of the tube and snatch the food away from you.

Seeing Lu Chen stretch out his empty hand, Xiao Minase couldn't touch the food for a long time, and then glared angrily at Lu Chen, Lu Jingxing raised the corner of his mouth.

It seems that this is no different from feeding monkeys in Huaguo Mountain, but when the monkeys are angry, many people will condemn the monkeys, and when Minase is angry, most people will only praise them for being cute.

Maybe it's because the monkeys will hit tourists with stones, but Minase can only be angry.

Just like when he was browsing videos in the past few days, he came across a kitten protecting its food. The sentence that impressed him most in the comment area was: "This shows that when you are weak enough, being angry will only look cute."

Lu Chen and Lu Xi were very happy. They walked back and forth in this venue. Lu Chen took a fancy to a glass ball that could discharge electricity in the boutique where they were shopping.

The principle is very simple. According to the electrostatic principle, small balls of lightning of different shapes can be released.

Although Lu Jingxing knew that the price online might be half of what it was here, he still decided to buy it.

Firstly, when he went to the aquarium as a child, he also fell in love with this ball, but he didn't buy it at the time, which made him regret for a long time.

The second is that although buying here may not seem very cost-effective, the joy and joy of the moment when you buy something cannot be won back no matter how much you buy.

They later went to the dolphinarium and saw the spiritual dolphins rolling wantonly in the water. This was the first time Lu Chen and Lu Xi heard the sound of dolphins.

Lu Xi said: "It doesn't feel that similar to the dolphin sounds in the game."

Lu Jingxing looked at the dolphins heading the ball: "That's why I brought you here to listen to the dolphins' sounds."

In the penguin pavilion, the emperor penguin with a bright yellow color on its head left a deep impression on Lu Chen.

"Emperor penguins are very responsible penguins." Lu Jingxian explained: "When incubating eggs, penguins are different from hens. The father penguin is responsible for incubating the eggs. For 60 days, They basically don’t eat or drink, and they don’t change shifts until the female penguin comes back from eating.”

Lu Chen nodded in understanding.

"The afternoon performance is about to begin. Audiences who want to watch the performance can now enter the performance hall with their tickets." The announcement sounded suddenly.

"Let's go and watch the show. I heard that killer whales and beluga whales can only be seen during the show." Lu Jingxing called to his younger siblings.

After finally finding a place to sit down, there were small carts walking around in the corridor selling food. Lu Chen and Lu Xi were really tired from playing, so Lu Jingxing bought each of them a bottle of Coke and a bucket of popcorn.

As he paid, the show had already begun.

Several actors stepped on water-spraying devices and performed flying and tumbling in front, and several actors danced in front to open the show.

After the opening, the host came on stage with the script.

This was the first time Lu Jingxing saw a host wearing slippers, but slippers were really convenient in the wet venue.

After a short opening speech, the first thing that was served was the performance of the killer whale and the beluga whale.

The two whales passed the ball to each other, sprayed water into the audience, and waggled their tails to splash the water under the command of the keeper, showing a very tacit understanding.

The keeper even took out two or three fish from the small bucket he carried with him after each action, and rewarded the whale.

The subsequent performance was a bit dull, although Lu Chen and Lu Xi enjoyed watching it.

The host came on stage during the intermission.

The host said with a mysterious smile: "I believe there are many people who came today not only to watch the performance of our aquarium..."

Many people below responded loudly: "Yes!"
