The lunch at the Li family's house is naturally more complete, richer and more luxurious than that at the Li Bing family!
Delicious delicacies such as geese in the clouds, bird's nests, wings, chickens, ducks, and fish are countless!
For Lin Hao, such a feast was a must-do, so he ate without caring about his image. Anyway, he felt that he had no image to speak of.
Seeing him devouring his food like a voracious food, Xu Mingjun looked down upon him. While Li Hui and Detective Li were talking, he sarcastically said, "Mr. Lin, are you just released from prison when you are so hungry?"
Lin Hao was stunned for a moment by these words. After swallowing the food in his mouth, he gave him a thumbs up and said, "Master Xu, you are really amazing. You have guessed this!"
Xu Mingjun: "Huh?"
Lin Hao said without any shame: "I just came out of it yesterday, and it's only been less than a day!"
Xu Mingjun: "..."
Seeing that he continued to eat like no one else, Xu Mingjun couldn't help but ask again: "What did you do?"
Lin Hao said: "I didn't commit anything, I just committed murder intentionally!"
Xu Mingjun felt a chill in his heart. Is this guy a murderer?
Lin Hao did not explain that he was wronged, but continued to eat hard. He usually did not chat while eating, otherwise he would not be able to concentrate, and it would not be conducive to digestion.
After eating so hard, Lin Hao felt a little stuffed, but he felt that he couldn't blame himself. If he had to blame Li Hui's cook, the food he cooked was even more delicious than what he cooked.
After the meal, in order to relieve his appetite, Lin Hao asked to visit Li Hui's large villa.
Li Hui's life is very regular. He usually takes a nap half an hour after a meal, but he just tasted one of the pills given by Lin Hao before the meal. Now he felt very energetic, so he took the pill himself.
Lin Hao and others started to visit.
When he came to the Feng Shui fish pond that Li Hui loved so much, Lin Hao stopped. After looking at it for a while, he couldn't help but curl his lips.
As soon as they saw him curling his lips, everyone's hearts clicked. If this guy doesn't curl his lips, something must be wrong.
Li Hui said doubtfully: "Boy, have these koi fish offended you?"
Lin Hao said: "No!"
Li Hui said: "Then these koi are from a fake village?"
"No!" Lin Hao shook his head and said, "I may know a little about Chinese herbal medicine, but when it comes to fish, I only know how to fry, stew, and steam."
Everyone: "..."
Li Hui asked: "Then why are you curling your lips again?"
Lin Hao said: "Oh, I just wonder why there are only fish in this pond and no turtles!"
Li Hui asked doubtfully: "Do you understand turtles?"
Lin Hao said: "I understand a little, I understand a little!"
Li Hui smiled and said: "Well, of course I have one, it's in the backyard. Do you want to see it?"
Lin Hao said: "If there is, of course you have to take a look."
Li Hui then led him to the back. Although Xu Mingjun followed, he took out his cell phone and made a call after thinking about it. He had lost face so much just now, and he had to make it back.
Passing through the villa and coming to the back, Lin Hao discovered that this place was actually a garden. It was natural but not a jungle. It was shaded by precious box trees, nan trees, and nopal trees, and there were many exotic flowers arranged under the trees.
Grasses, osmanthus, red maples, kumquats, wax plums, and autumn chrysanthemums are all colorful and interesting. One of the winding streams surrounds it, and strange rocks of different styles stand on its banks.
Walking into this private natural garden without too many artificial traces, Lin Hao was amazed. This is simply a fairyland on earth! Especially the flat rocks under the two towering ancient trees, with creepers and vines forming a natural barrier around them.
It's like a big bed with a unique charm. How romantic would it be to have a beautiful woman lie on it and talk about life and ideals, and do something you love when you are deeply in love?
While thinking about it all the way, I soon reached the end of the stream. There was a natural pool here, next to the rock wall behind. The water flowed vertically from the top of the rock wall. The water flow was not large, and it was difficult to tell whether it was a natural stream or a pool.
Mountain spring water or artificial tap water.
But logically speaking, this should not be tap water. Xiangjiang is surrounded by the sea and cannot provide its own water source. Drinking water must be imported from the mainland, so the price is ridiculously expensive. No matter how rich the Li family is, they cannot waste it like this.
Li Hui stopped at the edge of the pool, pointed to the bottom of the pool and said, "Hey, look, these are my turtles."
The creek pool was not deep, and the water was crystal clear. Lin Hao could almost see at a glance the hundreds of turtles, large and small, hiding among the cracks in the rocks and among the aquatic plants!
The weather was not particularly cold, and the tortoises had not entered hibernation. Although many of them shrank when they heard the voices of people, some big ones had the courage to look around.
Lin Hao watched carefully, but was very disappointed. Li Hui did raise a lot of turtles, but the species were very mixed and inferior, including Brazilian tortoises, grass tortoises, flowered tortoises, alligator turtles, flame tortoises, spotted tortoises, eagle-billed tortoises, tortoises...
…and so on and so on.
Li Hui had almost completely caught all the common turtle species, but the only exception was the money turtle. Moreover, this method of raising turtles was something that Lin Hao really couldn't praise!
When it comes to turtles, Lin Hao was only half-hearted at first, but since Yan Su started raising turtles, not only did she play with the turtles all day long, but regardless of whether Lin Hao wanted to hear it or not, she would talk to him about raising turtles whenever she had time.
Under the influence of knowledge, he also knows a lot of knowledge and taboos about raising turtles.
For example, water turtles and land turtles must be kept separately because of their different lifestyles.
For example, those large and extremely aggressive alligator turtles cannot be kept together with other docile or even timid water turtles, otherwise those water turtles will be easily bitten.
For example, large turtles and small turtles, adult turtles and hatchlings, and turtles of different types must be raised separately.
Li Hui has undoubtedly taken advantage of all these major prohibitions on raising turtles.
Lin Hao took a closer look, and sure enough, some were skinny and bony, some were so fat that they were deformed, some had their tails cut off, some were bitten to pieces, and some even had their claws missing.
Seeing that Lin Hao curled his lips again and kept curling his lips, Li Hui couldn't help but ask again: "Can't I, these little turtles, stand in your eyes?"
"Baby?" Lin Hao laughed and said, "Old man, can you stop being funny? If these rags were placed in our village, I wouldn't even bother to take a look!"
Li Hui was so angry that he laughed, "Listen to what you said, do you have a good turtle there?"
Lin Hao smiled and said nothing, but his expression undoubtedly said: Of course!
Li Hui was not angry, but turned to Xu Mingjun and said, "Xiaojun, is your grandpa at home?"
Xu Mingjun said: "My grandpa went out in the morning!"
Li Hui said: "That's just right. Hurry and sneak your treasure over and let this kid open his eyes!"
Xu Mingjun chuckled, "I just called and asked the housekeeper to pick it up. It should be here by now!"
Everyone looked back, and sure enough they saw a middle-aged man walking over to the villa with two strong men, and the strong men were carrying a large transparent water tank in their hands.
When they got closer, everyone looked at the water tank and saw six turtles inside. They were all adult turtles and weighed about two kilograms.
Xu Mingjun pointed at the water tank with great pride and said: "Mr. Lin, these little turtles like me can be able to penetrate your eyes!"
Lin Hao lowered his eyes, nodded slightly and said, "Just force it!"
"Barely!" Xu Mingjun couldn't help but get angry when he heard his pretentious tone, "Do you know what kind of turtles these are?"
Lin Hao nodded: "Of course, these are money turtles!"
The money turtle means the return of money, and there is an old saying in Xiangjiang: Keep the money turtle, and you will return with the money. Every wealthy and distinguished family will raise some for good luck.
The reason why Li Hui didn't was because he didn't pay much attention to these things in the past, but he stopped doing business in the past year or two, completely retired, and became free, so he began to pay attention to things like flowers, grass, fish, birds, and turtles.
He also wanted to raise a money turtle, but he never had the right opportunity to get one.
Seeing Lin Hao, Xu Mingjun recognized at a glance that what he had brought was a money turtle. He was slightly surprised, but he asked with unabated annoyance: "Since you know that I, the best of all turtles, are money turtles, what do you think?
reluctantly?"
"There is a reason why I said these turtles are reluctant." Lin Hao was not in a hurry, but said slowly: "The distribution of money turtles in the world is very narrow, mainly concentrated in a limited number of provinces in our country, and its classification is also
There are only three major species. The first is the money turtle species from Guangdong, which is the cheapest type of money turtle. The second type is the money turtle species from Hainan. It is a medium-sized species among the money turtle species. Players like it, and it is better than the money turtle species from Guangdong.
The one is much prettier! The third type is the most expensive among the money turtles, the money turtle grown in Vietnam! And your kind..."
Seeing that he was hesitant to speak, Xu Mingjun hurriedly asked: "Then what kind of things do I have?"
Lin Hao originally didn't want to hit him, but he could only tell the truth: "You are undoubtedly the cheapest Cantonese breed!"
Xu Mingjun said unconvinced: "What evidence do you have?"
Lin Hao said: "It's actually very simple to tell which species they are. When you confirm that it is a money turtle, just look at the details. The one from Vietnam is the easiest to identify. It has an olive head, red ears, red face, red flesh, and a rice base.
The writing is on a black background!”
Xu Mingjun hurriedly grabbed one of his money turtles. After taking a closer look, he found that the other features were all specious, but the bottom plate was completely different. It was pitch black and there was no word "rice" at all, so he asked: "Is it grown in Hainan?"
?”
Lin Hao said: "The Hainan species is relatively large, with a big yellow head, and the bottom is completely black!"
After Xu Mingjun looked at it, he felt that the characteristics matched perfectly, "Then mine is from Hainan!"
Lin Hao shook his head, "No, its head is too small and its body is small. It is a typical Cantonese species. The cheapest and least valuable one."
Xu Mingjun: "..."
Lin Hao squatted down, looked at each money turtle carefully, and then pouted again and again.
Li Bing said with some humor: "Okay, although my turtle is cheap, it is still a money turtle, so don't pout!"
Lin Hao said: "I pout not because of their species, but because they are not raised well, have broken tails, missing claws, and are deformed! The most important reason is that they cannot reproduce!"
Li Zifeng exclaimed in shock: "Oh my god, just by looking at them twice, you know they are impotent?"
