Chapter 199: Visiting the Zoo

After a Hong Kong-style morning tea, Li Shuangyuan took the group on the bus bound for the zoo. Li Shuangyuan is very familiar with this route, and after he came to Yangcheng, he and his classmates from other places have been to the zoo.

Yangcheng Zoo is located directly north of Sun Yat-sen University, about 5 or 6 kilometers away. There was a direct bus on this route, and Li Shuangyuan took everyone to wait at the bus stop at the school gate for a while, and soon got on the bus to the zoo.

The current buses in Yangcheng are still the old-fashioned square buses, and there are ticket sellers on them.

"Comrade, how much does it cost for the eight of us to go to the zoo?" asked Li Shuangyuan in fluent Mandarin.

The conductor is a young woman with a strong Cantonese accent.

"Eight people, eight corners!" she said.

As she spoke, she tore up eight bus tickets and handed them to Li Shuangyuan, and at the same time took the one dollar handed over by Li Shuangyuan, and found two cents for Li Shuangyuan.

Li Liang and his father Li Shuangzhu helped their grandfather Li Chengxi to find a place to sit down, and beckoned Li Hao and Li Yin to find two vacant seats to sit down.

Others have no seats available and are standing in the middle and rear of the bus.

In Yangcheng now, there are not as many cars as in later generations, but there are still quite a lot of people, and the most are people riding bicycles on the road.

Li Hao exclaimed: "Wow, there are so many bicycles, it would be nice if we Hekang also had so many bicycles!"

The bus stopped all the way, and after passing more than ten bus stops, it finally drove to the door of Yangcheng Zoo. From a distance, Li Liang saw a big sign with black letters on a white background hanging on the pillar of the zoo's wide gate, and a few big characters on it were written on Yangcheng Zoo.

At the same time, there is also a banner on it, which reads welcome foreign guests to visit, and it seems that Yangcheng Zoo often has foreign guests to visit.

It was the summer vacation and there were a lot of people coming to the zoo.

When I got out of the car, all the people who got out of the car were local families who came here to play together. They spoke Cantonese that Li Liang couldn't understand, and they went to the ticket window of the zoo to buy tickets in groups.

"Dad, big brother and sister-in-law, you wait for me here for a while, I'll go and queue up to buy tickets!"

"Good!"

"Uncle, I'll go with you!"

"I'm going too!"

In the end, Li Liang and Li Hao competed to accompany Li Shuangyuan to the ticket window of the zoo to buy tickets, and there were many people queuing up to buy tickets, most of them were parents with children, and quite a lot of them were the whole family.

"Daddy, I want to see elephants!"

"Mom, do hippos always hide in the water?"

"Grandma, is it true that the teacher said that we humans are all monkeys?"

"Grandpa, who is better than the lion or the tiger?"

The crowd was full of similar words, but the parents around them were busy, and they were busy answering their children's questions while queuing.

Li Liang took his cousin's hand and followed behind his uncle Li Shuangyi.

Li Liang has visited the zoo a few times, but it was all from his previous life. Cousin Li Hao has left Hekang County for the first time and entered the territory of Yangcheng in Guangdong Province for the first time, and what he is most looking forward to is wanting to see the national treasure giant panda. Thanks to the propaganda of the school teachers, Li Hao and Li Yin's brothers and sisters are looking forward to the legendary cute national treasure.

After waiting in line for more than half an hour, Li Shuangyuan finally bought eight tickets, including three student tickets.

Li Chengxi and them met at the ticket gate, and the group followed the flow of people and entered the gate of Yangcheng Zoo.

Li Liang, like everyone else, looked around. In his last life, he had the opportunity to come here to play with his uncle after graduating from his uncle Li Shuangyi, and at that time, he visited Yangcheng Zoo under the leadership of his uncle.

According to the time of the Common Era, Li Liang revisited the old land several years in advance.

Yangcheng Zoo has not changed much, the simple layout, but the animals are diverse.

Not only the common species of lions, tigers, bears, etc., but also animals from five continents, and even penguins from Antarctica can be found here.

The cute giant panda, the fierce and domineering king of beasts, the South China tiger, and the lion, the king of the grassland, all made Li Liang and his party increase their knowledge.

Along the way, Li Meng and Li Yin screamed again and again, and even the always calm old man Li Chengxi and Li Shuangzhu opened their eyes wide, carefully observing all kinds of animals, and listening to the commentators of each venue explain the habits of animals.

After walking around the zoo for most of the day, even at noon, everyone was reluctant to come out of it.

Finally, after two o'clock in the afternoon, everyone walked around the zoo, and the group reluctantly came out of the zoo.

"Uncle, I still want to come over next summer to see Dudu!" said the little cousin Li Yin.

Dumb is a red panda in the Panda Pavilion, and this name is the name that Li Yin gave to him after carefully observing its cute and cute behavior.

Li Yin's brother Li Hao coaxed on the side: "Yin Yin, will you still recognize it next year?"

"Yes!" Li Yin said categorically.

"Bragging!" Li Hao said, "Every giant panda grows up to be about the same, this year it is only so big, and when it comes next year, it will definitely grow up, and you won't recognize it at that time!"

Li Yin was told by his brother that he was in a hurry, and hurriedly asked his cousin Li Meng for help: "Sister Mengmeng, do you think I can find it?"

"Yes!" Li Meng said with a smile, "Dumb is a very spiritual giant panda, I believe it will continue to be so stupid when it grows up!"

Li Yin, who was supported by his cousin, snorted at his brother.

Li Chengxi smiled and looked at the young brother and sister bickering, he had been a teacher all his life in the township where Hekang had lived early, and the farthest place he had been to was none other than the location of the regional administration, and he couldn't imagine that after retirement, he could go to such a far place in Yangcheng to play, this life is really enough.

Coming out of the zoo, Li Shuangyuan took everyone on the return bus, and returned to the bus stop outside the gate of Yat-sen University from the zoo.

Everyone casually found a private small restaurant to make do with a meal, and after eating a belly of seafood, everyone was very tired, and they all went back to the guest house room to rest.

"Liangzi, are you tired?" After Li Shuangyuan sent everyone back to their respective rooms, they came to the room where Li Liang and Li Hao were.

At this time, Li Hao was already tired and fell asleep on his bed.

Li Liang didn't sleep, after he opened the door for his uncle Li Shuangyuan, he invited Li Shuangyuan to sit down next to his bed.

"Uncle, I'm not tired!" Li Liang replied, "Uncle, is there any progress on your side in the matter of kiwifruit?"

Two months ago, Li Shuangcheng wrote a letter to Li Liang, in which he told Li Liang what he had inquired about, and said that he was going to let his classmates who graduated from Gangshan Agricultural College and were assigned to work in the agriculture and forestry workstation under the regional agricultural bureau go to Zaozhu Township to check and see if the back mountain contracted by the second brother Li Shuangyan's family was suitable for planting kiwifruit.

However, his classmate has not taken time to come out, so far it is Li Liang's second uncle Li Shuangyang who has introduced some local wild kiwifruit seedlings from surrounding counties and cities through various channels, or digging or buying, and has explored and planted them by himself.
