Four hundred and sixty-two chapters enviable basement
"Well, I can't tell you what. There used to be two lunatics at home, but now it's likely to become four." Now that the guests had spoken, Pan had no choice but to arrange for the driver to take Hong Tao's and his luggage to the room.
After entering the small building, Hong Tao really felt that this Marx family was really rich. Although his last name seemed to be related to German aristocrats, Von in his name does not necessarily mean that he was aristocrat, just like Van in the Netherlands and Van in France.
The same as De, it just shows that this person may be related to the old aristocracy, but he may not necessarily still be an aristocrat now.
But now Hong Tao is more certain that this Marx is probably really a European aristocrat, or at least he is related to it. Otherwise, there would not be so many oil paintings of his ancestors hanging in this small building, as well as emblems similar to the Manchester United team emblem on the walls and furniture.
, although Hong Tao couldn't recognize what it was painted on, but Hong Tao had heard a little bit about the family emblem.
Marx's small private space is located underground. On the left is the wine cellar, and on the right is a large room filled with his fishing gear or things related to fishing and hunting. From the location of his fishing gear, Hong Tao came to another conclusion,
This Marx was also a master who was afraid of his wife.
Why do you say that? Because Hong Tao had a deep experience in his previous life. His fishing gear was treated in the same way. Although there was a storage room at home, his wife refused to let it be used. In the end, the fishing gear, which was no cheaper than furniture, had to live downstairs.
In the garage. And Marx's current situation is probably worse than that of his previous life. In such a big three-story building, he can't even find a room to put his beloved fishing gear, and they are all squeezed into the basement.
Compared with the garage in Hong Tao's previous life, Marx's basement is much more luxurious. Not only is it illuminated by many lights, there are also several glass cabinets hanging on one side of the wall, which are filled with specimens of various fish.
On the walls around these display cabinets, there are also photos of various sizes, all of which are related to fishing. Many photos also have text descriptions underneath. It is like a small aquatic animal museum.
"This is my championship trophy. It was won by Schweder and I. Unfortunately, our fish was released in the end. If we can bring it back, it will be our most precious exhibit. I would like to place it in the right place."
Okay, it's in the middle of the room." As soon as Marx entered the basement, he immediately seemed to be 20 years younger. He dragged Hong Tao to look here and there, and kept introducing the background of specimens or photos. He was like a tour guide.
.
"I heard from Pan that you are the champion of China and Japan. Although Pan showed us your championship photo, I am still not sure that you have such high fishing skills at such a young age. I think
Before we form a team, we have to conduct some tests, if you don't mind." Unlike his cold-faced and warm-hearted brother, this little Marx should be regarded as warm-faced and cold-hearted. He rarely speaks and is only polite.
He smiled sexually, but he opened his mouth. The temperature dropped a few degrees in the already cool basement.
"What do you mean? There are still exams? If we fail, do we have to fly back?" Wang Jian also understood what little Marx meant and expressed his dissatisfaction in Chinese and Hong Tao.
"Just take the exam. If you don't have diamonds, you won't get porcelain work. Are we afraid of them!?" Hong Tao is not so resistant. He has been in contact with Europeans and Americans a lot in the past two years, and he has gradually become accustomed to their straightforward methods.
Familiar, although this person's intestines are a bit too straight.
"Schweide! This is my guest. You should maintain basic etiquette!" Pan couldn't understand Chinese, but when she saw Hong Tao and Wang Jian muttering in Chinese, she could guess the general meaning. She immediately lost her face and started
Teach her brother-in-law a lesson.
"It's okay, it's okay. Since Mr. Schweder is not too worried, then you can make arrangements, but it's best to use real bait fishing. I'm not very good at lure fishing. The fishing competition we are participating in this time
Is it stipulated to use real bait?" When Hong Tao saw that the sister-in-law and brother-in-law were about to quarrel, he quickly came out to rescue them.
"Yes, it's real bait. I have videos of previous fishing competitions. We can go to my study and take a look. Don't pay attention to what Schweider said. He has been worried that you don't understand European fishing competitions, but I haven't been there yet.
So pessimistic, and we still have a few days to familiarize you with European fish." Although Marx said he was not pessimistic, there seemed to be little confidence in his words.
"Let's take a look at the fishing gear first. To be honest, I don't know much about European fishing gear, and I also need to catch up on the fishing rules here." Hong Tao didn't want everyone to be so confrontational as soon as they met.
"Oh, yes, please follow me!" Marx patted his forehead with his hand in an exaggerated manner and walked quickly into the house.
A skinny camel is bigger than a horse! Although Marx, like Hong Tao in his previous life, was not qualified to go upstairs with fishing gear, the area of his basement where he kept fishing supplies was almost larger than a three-bedroom apartment. The area where fish specimens and photos were stored just now
That room is actually a showroom. After passing through, there is a larger room at the back filled with all kinds of fishing equipment.
"I'm so wealthy. I have a garage above and a boathouse underground!" Wang Jian was dumbfounded after entering the house. There was a 7-8 meter long fishing boat in the middle of the house, with a trailer underneath, and the house
The other end is not a wall, but a garage door
The rolling shutter door also has an upward slope on the ground. No need to ask, there must be a yard outside that door. When you want to go fishing, raise the rolling shutter door and the car can drive down through the slope, then hook up the trailer and pull the fisherman
The boat is on its way!
"Your family can open a fishing gear shop!" Hong Tao looked at the dazzling array of fishing gear hanging on the walls of the house, and he didn't know whether he was talking to Pan or to Marx.
"These are Schweder's favorite fishing rods, these are mine, and there are other types of fishing rods in between. You can choose at will. The competition regulations can only use 4 fishing rods, so we cannot satisfy everyone's habits. We must
Find a fishing rod that everyone can use as a tool for our competition." Marx pointed to the wall on the left and then on the wall on the right. This old man was quite interesting. He and his brother shared a wall with each other.
No matter who you interfere with, what is hung on the wall in the middle is a neutral product.
"They're all the same, but the tonality is a little different. Which one do you think is more suitable?" Hong Tao and Wang Jian first took two 4-meter throwing rods from the Schweder wall to test the feel, and then they took them from the Marx wall.
Picked the other two from the top, and finally selected the one on the middle wall.
Two fishing rods of similar length, the final trial conclusion is: these two Max are full of food. Apart from slight differences in details, color, and tonality, these fishing rods have similar performance. It is difficult to say that
Whether planting is good or bad depends on specific analysis of specific issues.
After a few minutes of trial use, Hong Tao and Wang Jian finally chose the 4-meter throwing rod used by Schweder. The only reason for choosing it was that this kind of fishing rod produced in Belgium is unique, which means that it is unique from beginning to end.
They are all one section, and there are no other plug-in parts. Generally speaking, this kind of fishing rod does not need to consider plug-in issues, so its toughness is slightly higher, and the elasticity of the waist is better. It is slightly less suitable for controlling larger fish.
Advantages.
"Hey, Fili, I kind of believe in their strength now. You see they picked my fishing rod. I've said it before, your kind of fishing rod is not suitable for fierce competitions and playing with the ladies by the river.
It’s just fun.” When little Marx saw that his fishing rod was chosen by a customer, he immediately became happy and did not forget to give his brother a slap in the face.
"But in the last competition, I caught the biggest fish on my fishing rod. Have you forgotten?" After listening to his brother's words, Marx immediately cited past results to refute his brother's statement.
"But the first three fish were all caught by me. If it hadn't been for your fishing rod breaking last year, we wouldn't have lost to the Austrian who sold boots!" Little Marx was not to be outdone and began to reveal his brother's scars.
"You're talking nonsense! My fishing rod was broken because my fishhook was hung on the aquatic plants. If you hadn't been yelling at me, I wouldn't have broken my fishing rod! I..." Marx
His face turned red with anger when his brother hit the nail on the head.
