As a large number of tourists entered the park, the Xihong Zoo welcomed its first visitors after renovations.
When the tourists walked into the park with anticipation, the first thing that caught their eyes was the garden full of monkeys.
At first glance, the tourists thought they had seen wrong.
"Why are there so many monkeys here? Did they escape?"
"It's over, these monkeys will definitely steal things later, everyone hold your bags tight and hide your food."
"I'm really scared. I was robbed by monkeys in Emei Mountain before, and I still have a shadow."
"Why are the monkeys here all free-ranging?"
Just as a crowd of tourists were filled with worry and doubt, what happened next exceeded their expectations.
They thought the monkeys would actively ask tourists for things, but the result was that even when tourists walked up to them, they were indifferent.
Only when tourists voluntarily took out food would they consider whether to take it.
Such obedient behavior instantly surprised the tourists.
However, this was not the end. Just as a female tourist threw some trash on the ground, a small monkey with a heart-shaped face immediately picked up the trash and threw it into a nearby trash can.
Seeing this, the female tourist's face instantly turned red.
What happened next completely overturned the tourists' traditional understanding of monkeys.
Looking around, some monkeys in the park were guiding tourists, some were helping tourists entertain children, and one monkey even helped a child retrieve a hydrogen balloon that had flown away from a tree.
Whether big or small, regardless of the species, the monkeys in the park were all very polite.
Even macaques, which are generally considered the most mischievous, became little darlings here.
More importantly, these monkeys were completely unafraid of humans and had no aggressive tendencies. They allowed tourists to pet and touch them without baring their teeth.
"This is truly eye-opening. I thought all monkeys were like those in Emei Mountain."
"Monkeys of Emei Mountain: Now there's another comparison. We'll be cyberbullied every time we visit Xihong Zoo."
"So monkeys are like people, there are good and bad ones."
"I feel like these monkeys really consider this their home."
"Aren't they employees of the zoo too?"
"It's possible, just like Paw Patrol."
"Wow, it's so loving here. Do you think one day other animals will be let out of their cages like these monkeys?"
"No! I'm scared. I'm not afraid of the animals hurting people, I'm afraid of you scaring the animals."
"Indeed, although the animals in Xihong Zoo are a bit unusual, they are still very kind to humans."
"Let's keep going forward and see what else there is."
Seeing the monkeys' behavior, the tourists became even more expectant of the areas ahead.
Before long, the first group of visitors arrived at the former orangutan enclosure.
Unlike the previous orangutan enclosure, it had now been transformed into a handicraft workshop.
Shi Difu, who used to throw feces at tourists, was now wearing denim overalls, sunglasses, and holding a saw, as if he were doing carpentry work.
Before long, a bamboo dragonfly was born in his hands.
When Shi Difu handed the bamboo dragonfly to a child, everyone present felt a sense of unreality.
However, before everyone could react, Shi Difu's mouth curved slightly.
The next second, he took out a large water gun modified from a bamboo tube from behind him, grinning as he sprayed water at the tourists, his face full of triumphant mischief.
"Run! We've been tricked, this guy has evolved again."
"What the hell is this? Is it urine!"
"Ugh..."
"I thought it had a change of heart, but it's still Shi Difu, the same old smell, ugh..."
...
After everyone managed to escape the orangutan enclosure, the monkey enclosure nearby was also bustling with activity.
Originally, it housed only one gibbon. With the arrival of animals from the city zoo, there were some new faces.
There were yellow-cheeked gibbons, crested gibbons, black-leaf monkeys, silver-leaf monkeys, square-faced monkeys, and so on.
Unlike the monkeys outside, these monkeys were intently surrounding Li Qiang, the gibbon, as if attending a lecture.
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, as expected of rare species, they are different from the monkeys outside. The first thing they do in a new place is to learn."
"Yes, looking at them, they must be learning survival skills from the senior gibbon."
...
Just as everyone was sighing with emotion, Li Qiang, the gibbon, suddenly took out his small speaker from the side.
As he pressed the play button, a familiar song, "Ace of Spades," began to play, and Li Qiang, the gibbon, started dancing to the music.
The other monkeys nearby quickly followed suit.
The tourists outside felt like spitting blood.
"It turns out they are learning survival skills."
"It seems they have realized that without some special skills, it's impossible to survive in Xihong Zoo."
"The old man who cleaned the glass for a week has finally changed his tune."
"Case solved, case solved. I used to think some tourist taught them, but now it seems the park director taught them."
"As expected, no animal in Xihong Zoo is a freeloader. They all earn a living with their abilities."
After witnessing the two renovated venues, a large mushroom-shaped building appeared before the crowd of tourists.
At first, everyone didn't realize what the big mushroom was for.
Not until they saw the large characters on top of the mushroom.
Merchandise Store
Instantly, the tourists who were looking around as if they had found a target, rushed towards the merchandise store.
When they arrived at the merchandise store, they were immediately captivated by the merchandise in front of them.
In addition to the animal figurines that Yang Lin had previously brought out, there were animal phone cases, animal water cups, animal keychains, animal-themed clothing, and all types of merchandise that could be imagined were available here.
Moreover, each one was specially designed according to the image of the animals in the zoo, with superior craftsmanship and materials.
Below each item, one could also find a photo of the corresponding animal.
From this alone, it could be seen that Yang Lin had spared no expense.
The tourists naturally noticed this, and the first batch of arriving tourists immediately began to purchase in large quantities.
As more tourists arrived, the merchandise store became unprecedentedly popular.
While some tourists were browsing the merchandise store, others had already entered other newly built areas of the park.
