"This... isn't right, is it?"

Fang Hao stared blankly, looking at the happenings inside his chemical factory, feeling somewhat disoriented, as if he'd traveled through time. Yet, the arrangements within the factory were all so familiar.

His mind couldn't quite process everything at once, and he stood frozen on the spot, like his brain had crashed.

Meanwhile, the foxes and bears conducting the demolition work inside the chemical factory also noticed the loud crash caused by the factory gate's collapse. They too noticed the dazed middle-aged man standing at the gate.

"Is the boss here this time?"

Ansheng, standing on the rooftop of the car, looked towards a worker squatting beside the pickup truck with his hands on his head and asked.

"Yes! That's our boss." The supervisor who arrived at the chemical factory before Fang Hao faced Master Fox's scanning gaze, eyes flickering, trying to transform into a whistleblower identifying the mastermind behind the scenes.

"Cat brother, go! Bring him over!"

Identified by the employee's pointing, Ansheng spoke to the fat cat originally playing bowling.

The panda, wearing a safety helmet, landed on all fours and dashed towards the gate. Fang Hao, dumbfounded at the spot, saw a highly imposing panda, with a menacing grin, tongue sticking out, and fierce eyes glaring at him, making Fang Hao's hair stand on end and his scalp explode.

"What the hell! Bear!"

"Bear your ghost! It's a cat!"

With a traditional curse expelled from his mouth, Fang Hao scrambled towards town, dragging and rolling.

The relentless fat cat growled in discontent, leapt, and pinned Fang Hao to the ground, pressing down on his back with its paws, rubbing him in circles on the ground before dragging him back.

To the fat cat, although it knew it was a Qinling panda, due to the principal at Xiqi Campus's major shortcomings, it never acknowledged itself as a bear.

A panda as excellent as it must belong to the feline or canine family, certainly not the frightening bear family.

"Why did you run?"

Seeing Fang Hao being thrown back by the fat cat, Ansheng spoke humanly to Fang Hao: "I heard your factory's been doing great business lately, constantly discharging sewage into the gutters, even hiring drill teams to discharge chemical wastewater underground, is that right?"

"I think what you're doing is quite impressive, adding waste to mine and my pals' food, nearly causing diarrhea to the point of dehydration, with our rear ends burning. How should we settle this?"

"Impossible! Absolutely impossible!" Though stunned by the talking fox, Fang Hao's long-standing habits made him instinctively try to clear himself upon hearing keywords.

"Our sewage is always transported by truck for treatment at the sewage plant. There must be some misunderstanding, surely someone in the village is jealous of my earnings, reporting to the environmental..."

Mid-sentence, Fang Hao froze, realizing the things before him couldn't possibly be sent by the environmental bureau, could they?

Or rather, do they even know what the environmental bureau is?

"Don't talk nonsense to Master Fox, guard, scoop some water from the well and let the boss taste it."

Ansheng glanced at the time, raised his hand, and waved at the elder who had just wet his pants, signaling him to scoop some broth from the pit they had just discovered.

Shortly after, the security old man scooped a multicolored broth from a pit in the warehouse, with a layer of brown-yellow greasy froth, placed it in front of Fang Hao.

Fang Hao: "........"

Fang Hao knew more than anyone the potency of the broth before him—consuming it could lead to acute gastroenteritis, if not kidney failure.

"Master Fox, I'm not really a bad guy."

"I am very civil-minded, giving you three choices: drink the chemical liquor before you, reincarnate in Bharata, or emulate romantic France and butterfly stroke in the pit. If none work, let me beat you up; it's over then."

Master Fox's four tails revealed themselves, pulling out his signature huge hammer from the car pouch, hovering it above Fang Hao's head as if aiming.

"I'm sorry! My stubborn mouth insisted. The pit's wastewater contains over a hundred chemical agents. I was wrong. I'm willing to compensate for Master Fox's losses, treating the crew to meals daily."

Seeing the broth and the hammer, Fang Hao showed a stiff ingratiating smile, decisively choosing to yield, admitting to the sewage mishap and agreeing to handle all subsequent matters.

"Should have confessed earlier."

Master Fox lowered the hammer, smiling, waving to the patiently waiting black bear.

"Today, Master Fox invites the whole factory, from one to all, for the big stick buffet. All medical expenses will be charged to the chemical factory boss's bank card!"

"By the way, don't beat the old man, deduct twenty thousand from his bank card as a penalty."

"Also, when hitting the chemical factory boss, make sure it's evenly spread; he practiced Iron Cloth Shirt, his mouth's prowess is so solid, his body must be even tougher."

Hearing this, the fat cat raised his hand, instructing the three chubby black bears and panda:

"Master Fox means, when hitting the chemical factory boss later, don't just focus on the rear; make sure to flip him over, but don't knock him unconsciously."

"Roar——"

The black bear nodded, holding Fang Hao, while another clumsily wielded a wooden stick, striking Fang Hao's rear. Fang Hao's expression instantly turned red.

"Ahhh——"

"Ouch! My heavens....."

Though sticks weren't ideal for black bears and would shift during use, dispersing the force.

But the sheer strength of the black bear couldn't be resisted, each strike landing fiercely on Fang Hao's rear.

When mostly done, the bear holding Fang Hao flipped him, letting him face the chemical factory's insulated ceiling; Fang Hao, originally sobbing, froze, looking stiffly at the bear.

"Roar!"

The bear, with a kind expression, nodded at him, delivering a horizontal strike to his front.

"Waaah——"

With one strike, Fang Hao instantly rejuvenated, crying out loud.

"........"

The shareholders of the Qinling Ecological Fox Fund arrived after Master Fox settled the factory, watching Fang Hao getting brutally beaten back and forth by the black bears, feeling somewhat relieved.

Apparently... having one's head banged wasn't too severe a trauma.

Environmental protection is good!

With the forest environment improved, these fellows can peacefully reside in the woods without running out...

However, just then, the shareholders seemed to notice something dreadful approaching, each ducking their heads like quails, afraid to stir any trouble.

Lin Bingyun's specially hired accounting team approached Fang Hao and asked, "Where's the ledger? Please present the company's bank account key and your credit record; we're a professional accounting team."

"???" Fang Hao, in pain with quivering breaths, struggled to ask a question mark to the accountant.

What are you talking about?

Do I look like I have spare time?

"He's unwilling to cooperate; fetch my knuckle dusters from the car. Being in the office too long nearly made me forget my past debt collection experiences...."

The accountant placed the computer aside, taking off his suit to cover the laptop, putting on the knuckle dusters. He flashed a kind smile at Fang Hao: "You don't need to answer my questions; the knuckle dusters will speak for you."

......

"Later, you all drive back yourselves; the Forest Ranger needs to head out with us."

"An automatic car is easy, I'll set up a navigation map. You just sit in the driver's seat, don't touch anything, let the car idle and drive off, following the navigation back to school."

"Oh, right, this is the brake. Remember to step on it when you meet a red light."

The internal matters of the chemical factory were handed over to the members of the Wolf Fund by Ansheng; he led the fat cat to the van they came in, teaching the cat to drive.

Forest Ranger: "???"

No way! This isn't right, is it? A panda driving?

Never mind legalities; can it even drive?

Plus, where are we heading?
