"Open your mouth," he said.
In Dragon Turtle Valley, Yang Lin looked at the little Tyrannosaurus Rex, which had grown considerably, and dotingly tossed a finger-thick beef jerky into its mouth.
After the little Tyrannosaurus Rex swallowed the beef jerky in a few bites, he took out a carrot from a bag.
"Come on, don't just eat meat, have some vegetables to supplement your vitamins."
He then pried open the little Tyrannosaurus Rex's mouth and stuffed the whole carrot in. He held its upper and lower jaws with his left and right hands respectively, moved them a bit, and the carrot turned into a puree.
Seeing that the little Tyrannosaurus Rex had eaten 5 jin of meat, 3 jin of vegetables, and 1 jin of milk, he walked to the little Triceratops next to it with a look of satisfaction.
However, before he could even start feeding it, the little Triceratops ran away as if it had seen a ghost.
It hadn't run more than a few steps before its adoptive mother, Blue, darted out from the side, bit down on its hind neck, and carried it back.
Ten minutes later, the four little dragons in Dragon Turtle Valley had all rounded out considerably.
It was at this moment that Blue, whom Yang Lin had appointed as their foster mother, asked with anticipation.
"Boss of the zoo, can we really not go outside like other animals?"
Hearing Blue's question, Yang Lin first glanced at the four little balls of fluff in front of him, and then at Blue.
"No, at least not for now."
"I mean, I will only let you officially meet the tourists when a suitable opportunity arises."
That's right, Yang Lin did not intend to officially reveal the matter of these five dinosaurs yet, even though many people had already guessed that there were dinosaurs in Xihong Zoo due to Blue's previous escape.
"Alright then." A flicker of disappointment crossed Blue's face.
Although Dragon Turtle Valley was infinitely better than the laboratory before, having experienced the freedom of the outside world, it longed to be like the animals outside.
Looking at Blue's disappointed face, Yang Lin smiled slightly.
"Don't worry, I've placed you here simply because I haven't found a suitable place to house you yet."
"In a week at most, you'll have your own independent area."
As soon as he finished speaking, the phone in his pocket rang.
As soon as the call was answered, a male voice came from the other end.
"Hello Director Yang, I'm from the Dragon Country Marine Bureau. Your application for island leasing submitted the day before yesterday has been approved."
"We can complete the contract signing online shortly. Before signing, could you tell us what type of animals you plan to keep on this island?"
Hearing this question, Yang Lin was stunned for a moment, then looked at Blue beside him.
"Uh... I guess they're lizards, the really big kind."
"Are they monitor lizards?"
"That's right."
"Okay, as long as it doesn't cause too much damage to the entire island's ecosystem, it's fine."
......
After the call ended, a look of relief instantly appeared on Yang Lin's face.
"The Marine Bureau is so efficient! The approval came through in just two days. Now I don't have to worry about them getting too big and having nowhere to keep them."
Muttering to himself, Yang Lin immediately got up and left Dragon Turtle Valley.
The next time he appeared, he was back in the zoo director's office. As soon as he entered, he opened his computer and logged onto the Marine Bureau's official website.
After a series of operations, a 50-year lease contract for an island was signed online.
After paying the island lease fee, information related to the island he had leased appeared on his computer screen.
[Island Name: Niu Ti Island Island Area: 48 square kilometers Island Type: Uninhabited Wilderness...]
"Who named these islands? Last time it was Jishi Island, and this time it's Niu Ti Island. So unpleasant. From today onwards, it's called Dragon Island."
It had been more than half a year since he last leased Dolphin Island. Now, Yang Lin had leased another uninhabited island in a sea area 80 nautical miles away from Dolphin Island.
Compared to Dolphin Island, this island, originally named Niu Ti Island, was more vast and its terrain was more complex.
It was either rocky beaches or jungles, and in the center of the island was a dormant volcano that hadn't erupted for hundreds of years.
Coupled with the insufficient freshwater resources, the development difficulty of this island was far greater than that of Dolphin Island.
It was precisely because of this that when the Marine Bureau heard that Yang Lin wanted to contract this island, they only charged a friendly price.
However, these were not drawbacks for Yang Lin.
After all, it wasn't him who would live there, but the dinosaurs led by Blue.
When he learned that International Gene Corporation already owned a true dinosaur island, this idea came to him.
Although International Gene Corporation had promised that as long as he joined their "King Kong Plan," they would give him ownership of Isla Nublar.
But he also knew that such a benefit was not easily obtained. Instead of that, he might as well create his own dinosaur island, even if Xihong Zoo only had five dinosaurs at the moment.
As Yang Lin looked at the island map of Niu Ti Island and planned its future development, his phone on the table suddenly popped up two news alerts.
Yang Lin originally didn't intend to pay attention, but inadvertently his peripheral vision caught a line of text.
"A magnitude 6.5 earthquake occurred in Kyoto, Neon Country, suspected discovery of giant creature remains in fragmented mountain body..."
Yang Lin didn't care about the first part of this text; after all, "Little Rizon" had earthquakes more frequently than he farted every day.
What he was really interested in was the so-called giant creature remains in the latter part.
Anything that could be called giant certainly wouldn't be the size of ordinary creatures.
Driven by curiosity, he casually clicked into this news article.
As soon as the news opened, a prominent image appeared before his eyes.
In the image, a group of "Little Rizon" rescue teams wearing white hard hats were using excavators to clear a collapsed mountain body.
And in the gap of the mountain body, a creature's skull, as large as a house, was clearly visible.
Upon seeing this skull, Yang Lin's brow twitched involuntarily.
If the proportions of this skull had not been manipulated, then the animal to which this skull belonged would have been larger than the largest dinosaur in the world.
For some reason, Yang Lin thought of the giant prehistoric creature, possibly a Kun, that he had seen under the Arctic ice.
"Could it be that in prehistoric times, there was a giant beast civilization unknown to humans?"
"Did International Gene Corporation already know of their existence, and is the King Kong Plan related to them?"
A series of questions made Yang Lin's heart restless.
He had a premonition that the people from International Gene Corporation were not to be trifled with, and what they were doing could threaten the stability of the entire world.
