Lin Yi likes beef very much, and his favorite part is not beef tenderloin, especially eye steak.
This kind of steak is not very difficult to make, take a pan, melt a small piece of butter or grapeseed oil, fry the steak on each side for a minute and a half, then put it in the oven at a low temperature of 140 to 160 degrees for a few minutes, and then put it on a plate for a few minutes after leaving the oven, so that the juice that continues to precipitate is reabsorbed by the steak, and with the fries and carrots sold in the supermarket, it is a simple but hearty meat.
Well, he's not a real glutton, like some of the people who have their own refrigerators to keep meat fresh, and certainly wouldn't give up an entire forest for a single piece of sandalwood, and the label "unprofessional" doesn't stop him from pursuing deliciousness.
Therefore, after taking over the forest farm the year before, he bought 50 Jeju black cattle, which are closest to the native Wagyu beef, to satisfy his appetite.
Black cattle are not a commercial beef cattle and have a long growth cycle and require patience.
"So, we can't eat them right now. After Mr. Fisker invited him to Aberdeenshire, Lin Yilong also invited Mr. Fisk and several others to visit his forest farm in the name of "celebrating the victory".
All of them had airsoft guns, and with the exception of Mr. Fisk, who tried his best but was still unable to hit the deer, the others had little interest in hunting, and could only be regarded as a walk in full gear.
"It's a great place for hunting. "Are you interested in turning this place into a hunting ground?"
"Didn't think about it. Lin Yilong replied very simply, "This is my main residence, and it is still a little scary if other people enter their home with guns." ”
"That's right. Mr. Merck replied, "So this is a residence?"
"Yes, I usually stay here. Lin Yilong replied, "I have a commercial high-speed Internet in my house to work, and if I have nothing to do at other times, I should enjoy riding a horse, swimming at home, or driving a battery car around the forest farm."
"This early spring, when everything begins to recover, is the second most boring time in the forest farm - early autumn is the most fun time in the forest farm, you can hunt, you can fish. If you have some spare time, you can enjoy the fun of fishing here. ”
It's impossible to have idle time. The end of August and the beginning of September were almost the busiest time of the year for these gentlemen—especially Mr. Hovey and Mr. Merck, who were at their best season for sheep shearing—and there was no time to go out and have some time to play, and when there was time, the season of hunting and fishing was almost over. Lin Yilong's words are not sincere at all.
After walking along the path that served as a fire barrier in the forest for a while, and seeing the endless endless woods, several people lost interest in the forest farm.
"If it's a cash crop, I don't have anything here except some cattle and truffles. Lin Yilong introduced, "So, if you live here, if you like a little quieter days, this is definitely the best." We've all been to Fred's Tree Farm, and apart from enjoying some so-called "organic" or "domestic" food, it's actually a little boring, but that's it. ”
Mr. Howe and Mr. Merck nodded.
When they entered Lin Yilong's main forest farm, they found that the furnishings were a little too modern, like an apartment in a fast-paced metropolis like Tokyo or New York — completely out of step with the words "country house" that should be warm and comfortable.
Therefore, these gentlemen do not know how to evaluate Lin Yilong's interest in life, if they visit Lin Yilong's apartment in London, there is no big problem, but they are now in a lonely forest farm house more than 15 kilometers away from the nearest train station, and they don't know how to comment in style.
"Doesn't it seem a little too modern!" Mr. Fisk was in a sense closest to Lin Yilong, and he asked without being abrupt. "Well, I feel like it's a little discordant here. ”
"I admit so. Lin Yilong accepted the criticism sincerely, he had also visited Fisk's castle, and was full of praise for the Georgian castle inside, "Before I bought it, it was a town with mines, and before that, it was more or less a remote place like some farmers and shepherds who lived in the Scottish Highlands. When I moved in, I re-planned and razed all the houses here. Since I am not a particularly diligent person, the designer at that time strongly recommended that I adopt this modern style in order to show my skills and skills, and I accepted. It's still quite comfortable to live in. I'm a lazy person, so it's convenient to come. ”
Mr. Fisk couldn't help but remember having dinner with Lin Yilong at Mayfair's restaurant, when Lin Yilong talked about the loneliness of his old life, and smiled at him in agreement in order to comfort the owner of the forest farm.
The dining room, gymnasium, swimming pool, living room, and cinema are limited to the dining room, bedroom, activity room, and kitchen, while the family living room, bedroom, activity room, and kitchen are all more private areas that are not open to his guests.
After a short rest in the living room, Lin Yilong, as the host, led several gentlemen to his dining room.
It's still a five-course lunch, with an appetizer, appetizer, soup, main course, and finally fruit or dessert with coffee, although nothing other than the truffles that garnish the main meal, including the spices, are produced by Bracken Timber.
At the dinner table, it is the usual business boasting - to visit someone's house, the most important thing is to put on a certain gesture - "to be a guest at a friend's house that is not very familiar" This social form is usually very restrained and uninteresting, not only the host needs to deliberately "show", but the guests can only bored "express surprise", so in this meaningless touting, everyone feels very boring, and after drinking coffee, they excuse themselves to leave.
"How do you feel about this man?" Mr. Merck and Mr. Howe had always traveled together, and on the train back to London, Mr. Merck asked Mr. Hovey what he thought.
"It should be very similar to us. Mr. Hovey replied, "If you exclude his Asian background." ”
"I think so too. Mr. Merck said.
