Chapter 986: Chapter 529: The Prestige Goes Without Saying

"Boss Yan is here? Come on in quickly, step inside and have some tea first!" Xiao Qin was just driving up to the gate of the park when the headmaster, along with a few others, came out to meet him, and a perceptive young man rushed over, eagerly opening the car door, his attitude could not have been more attentive.

Apart from greeting leaders from higher levels on inspections, Xiao Qin had never seen the park staff this enthusiastic.

It’s not to say that the park staff were how they were, but at that time, many places had this situation. Otherwise, why would there be a saying that goes, "Doors are hard to enter, faces are hard to look at, words are hard to hear, and matters are hard to handle"?

No wonder, this is the inherent thinking of people. Regardless of the organization, those who have a stable job, a small number of them inevitably feel they are eating ’public grain,’ fostering an unspoken sense of superiority, even in a place like a zoo.

Even those without this mentality, upon seeing everyone else acting that way, can’t be too unconventional, so they go with the flow.

But that also depends on the situation, like today’s, which is different. If Yan Fei were just an ordinary person with a bit of money, grudgingly feeding a tiger, then these people might not have been so enthusiastic.

But when the person giving the tiger is a big boss, and the zoo isn’t some authoritative unit, it would be impossible for them not to show enthusiasm.

To be honest, after hearing Xiao Qin’s report, the initial offer of two thousand yuan as a hardship fee was said with a thick skin—they had no idea that the tiger often ate dinosaur meat. If they really counted it as always feeding beef, just the cost of feeding a few tigers would exceed one hundred thousand yuan a month—running an errand and only receiving two thousand? How could they have the face?

What was frustrating was that today, the park staff’s enthusiasm turned out to be akin to winking at a blind man. As soon as the car door opened, a group of people were waiting to greet Boss Yan, but the only people in the car besides driver Xiao Qin was a blooming beauty, and not a soul more.

"Where is Boss Yan?" Director Wu twisted his head and asked Xiao Qin, his tone not so nice. Everyone knew Boss Yan was a young man. How did he transform into a young woman in the blink of an eye? Could it be there had been some mishap that Xiao Qin had not reported in time?

People had been too enthusiastic just now, Xiao Qin hadn’t had a chance to get a word in. Now that he heard Director Wu asking, he hurriedly replied, "When entering the city, we often get stopped for vehicle checks, Boss Yan was worried the tiger wouldn’t stay calm, so he’s sitting up in the truck watching the tiger!"

It wasn’t so much that Boss Yan was worried the tiger would be unruly, it was more that Xiao Qin and Miss Xu Xiaoyan were concerned, and chiefly, Xu Xiaoyan felt it was better to be cautious. So for the remaining drive into the city, Yan Fei could only keep Tiger Da company, sitting in the big truck "eating what."

Hearing that this gorgeous woman in the car was Boss Yan’s fiancée, Director Wu arranged for two female employees to receive her. They were just waiting for the big truck to get into position before they went over to welcome her.

Xiao Qin panicked as soon as he saw this. He had just dealt with a tiger-related incident in the morning, and now everyone was still on edge. If they saw such a large tiger being led around on a mere iron chain, wouldn’t that scare the daylights out of them?

Without regard for the people around him, he grabbed Director Wu and shouted, "Old Uncle Wu, we can’t go there; the tiger is not in a cage, just led over with an iron chain."

Director Wu was immediately furious, "Haven’t you learned your lesson from this morning’s incident? Transporting a tiger without a cage, you thinking of ascending to the heavens or what?"

Xiao Qin was in a tough spot, "The tiger raised by Boss Yan is very well-behaved, even more obedient than a trained dog, you’ll see when it comes down in a moment."

"Then why are you pulling at me?" Headmaster Old Wu glared. "I’ve told you if you’re here to work, then just work. This is a workplace, call me director."

"I was just afraid you’d be scared, especially since this morning we just had an incident..." Xiao Qin nervously replied.

Director Wu glared again, was about to say something, but after seeing the reactions of those around him, he forcibly swallowed the words that had reached the tip of his tongue, nearly out of breath with frustration.

These people had just had a tough time with a tiger that morning; even those with no memory would have learned fear. Xiao Qin had been so anxious that he’d raised his voice. Those who had heard him, who had been moving towards the back of the truck, now all stopped in their tracks.

A few "clever" individuals, while no one was looking, even quietly took a few steps back—the fable teaches us that in the mountains, when you encounter a tiger, you don’t have to outrun the tiger, as long as you outrun your companion. The saying fitted perfectly with the current situation; as long as there are people in front of me, even if the tiger goes mad, I’ll be able to run faster than someone else.

It wasn’t long before people didn’t have to worry about that anymore, as Yan Fei, who couldn’t wait any longer, poked his head out above the railing and asked, "Old Qin, can we open the gate now?"

To others, he was Xiao Qin, but when it came to Yan Fei, he could only be Old Qin. Seeing Yan Fei call out, he instinctively glanced at the headmaster. Only when he saw Director Wu nod did he say, "Alright, alright. Let me introduce you, this is our director..."

Yan Fei offered a smile at Director Wu, "Hello, I’m Yan Fei. Everything is ready here. Once I open the panel, we can get going. The tiger has been cooped up in the truck for a long while, it’s getting a bit antsy. Everyone step back a bit and make some room for someone to show me the way. Oh, by the way, are there many people in the park today? I don’t want to scare anyone."

You better not scare people, frightening people can be deadly. What does it mean that the tiger is getting antsy? Can you really hold onto an anxious tiger?
