Chapter 016: Neurotic Couple

If it weren't for the high-altitude monitor that could see the whole picture, Li Mu would never have believed that it was a sea turtle.

Although nearly half of the body is hidden under the surface of the sea, the exposed part alone is not much smaller than the isolated island. You can say that it is a mountain, or it can be said that it is like an island, but it is difficult to connect with a large sea turtle. In particular, the big head with obvious organ features dangling was more like the sea sticking out something of its own.

Except for birds, most of the animals in this world are big. Wild boars are the size of bison, and gorillas can use their tongues to dunk while standing still. But animals like this can only be considered ordinary, not giant at all. And this turtle in the monitor is a real interstellar monster.

The huge body slowly moved towards the island, making a rumbling sound, and the screen of the monitor shook incessantly. Some monitors were directly stepped on, and the images disappeared one after another. The only ones that are still functioning are the two suspended in the air.

"I've got a nice house. Xu Dapeng said with a smile: "Although the volume is not large, it is built according to the standard of a fourth-level bunker. You see that there is so much movement outside, but you don't feel it at all here. ”

"yes, the soundproofing is good. Meng Lin lost her wink: "Little brother, do you want to try it......"

Looking at this strange couple, Li Mu now does not suspect that they are immortals, but suspects that these two are neurotic.

The standard of a four-level bunker is indeed very strong, and an earthquake of four or five magnitudes will not feel much. But you open your eyes and see if the big guy outside is good, if you really start a rush, let alone this broken bunker, the whole island will have to be demolished.

"Is there any secret passage to leave?" asked Li Mu with the last glimmer of hope.

"No one can leave until the big guy leaves. Xu Dapeng said: "But you don't have to worry, that guy is just here to lay eggs, and he will leave tomorrow morning." ”

"Laying eggs?" Li Mu was stunned, glanced at the big turtle in the monitor, and then looked at the neurotic couple in front of him, and a thought suddenly appeared in his heart.

"Does this big sea turtle come often?" asked Li Mu.

"I don't come often. Xu Dapeng smiled meaningfully: "Once a year." ”

"......" Li Mu was speechless for a moment.

Now he finally understands why these two people have B-level energy, but they don't wait for the comfortable environment in the city, and run here to play on a lonely island to survive. What kind of neurosis, it's simply the human essence of the human spirit. The risks are there, but the benefits are incomparable.

Interstellar behemoths are humanity's greatest threat, but they are also the main source of food. The quality is basically proportional to the body size, and the larger the size, the higher the quality. For example, the size of a turtle is usually reserved for the military, and it is not available in ordinary high-end restaurants. However, there is another food that is more precious than the meat of giant beasts.

That's the egg.

Birds rarely have huge body sizes, and there are very few oviparous interstellar behemoths, making eggs even rarer. Now the price on the market has far exceeded its own value. Animal eggs are no longer just food, but a luxury to show status.

The federation stipulates that no one or any institution can keep interstellar monsters in captivity under any name, so if you want to obtain precious beast eggs, you can only go to the wild to find them. Not to mention how difficult it is to find the lair of the giant beast, even if it is found, it may be useless. Because in the heat of battle, those fragile beast eggs can be easily damaged.

But the couple in front of Li Mu found such a good place.

Turtles do not stay after laying eggs, but simply leave. In this way, they can easily get their hands on the turtle eggs. As for whether such a lucrative deal will make people blush, Li Mu believes that with the shrewdness of the husband and wife, they will not think about it.

"You are only more than two hundred kilometers away from Xia Dao City here, and the appearance of such a huge creature will not be unresponsive to the garrison. Li Mu said: "If I guess correctly, there must be big people participating in your business." ”

"The little brother is very smart. Meng Lin chuckled: "We will only take thirty percent, and the remaining seven CDs belong to the Xia Dao City Garrison Command." ”

Li Mu gave a thumbs up.

The garrison is a garrison, and basically does not undertake war missions. In terms of status, it is not as good as Starfleet, but it is definitely a local snake.

Even if it is only the income of thirty percent of animal eggs, it is enough to make many people blush. But seventy percent was given to the garrison, and these things were equivalent to military funds. No matter how red others are, they won't reach out casually. Of course, if it was his Second Young Master Li who revealed his identity, it would be a different matter.

"Actually, not many people know about this matter, including your section chief. Xu Dapeng said: "If you didn't happen to meet today, we wouldn't have said it." ”

"Don't worry, I know I won't talk nonsense. Li Mu said: "In return, the two of you will arrange a room for me." When the big guy finishes laying eggs, he will call a flying machine to send me away. ”

Li Mu was very short of money, but he would never touch this kind of business. Benefits are relative, and no one will give benefits in vain. Once Li Mu stretches out this hand, someone will definitely use his identity to make a fuss. Even if he didn't have the selflessness of the director's father, Li Mu himself didn't want to cause those troubles.

"The pilot who sent you here has run away, but tomorrow the garrison will come to pick you up, and when the time comes, I will pick you up. Xu Dapeng was a little surprised by Li Mu's knowledge of current affairs, exchanged glances with Meng Lin, and said: "I'm not in a hurry to talk about the return, but now that we have free time, we can talk about immigration." ”

"Pull it down. Li Mu said angrily: "Guarding such a golden mountain, only fools are willing to emigrate." If I had known about you, I wouldn't have worked in vain. ”

Xu Dapeng and Meng Lin laughed again.

"Okay, you talk, I'll get some food first. Meng Lin lost her wink and twisted her waist into the kitchen.

Xu Dapeng pulled Li Mu to the sofa and sat down, and said, "If you had come a month earlier, it would have been in vain. But now that you're here, we can really have a good talk......"

"What?" Li Mu's heart moved: "You can't do this business anymore?"

"Like you said, this is a mountain of gold, and there are not one or two people with red eyes. Although it was discovered by the two of us, it has been a great accumulation of virtue for more than ten years. If you continue, you're probably going to get into trouble. Even if you don't come, we'll have to figure out how to move. Xu Dapeng smiled:

"But the four children live in the city and the school, and the two of us live on the island all the year round, and there are no acquaintances in the city. Come to think of it, it's better to find a new place to start over. ”

Xu Dapeng did not continue to say in detail, and Li Mu did not ask deeply. Both are smart people, and they don't need to be too thorough.

The reason why Xu Dapeng and Li Mu said these things was because they were just in time for the turtles to lay eggs, and they couldn't hide it. In addition, he even wants to push the boat down the river and use the people from the immigration bureau to do this matter smoothly. After all, immigrants are also in order, and it is best to catch up with the first batch, so as not to have too many dreams at night.

Of course, Li Mu understands the thoughts of the couple.

Obviously, something has happened in the past month, maybe there are big people eyeing here, or maybe there is something wrong with the previous backer. All in all, it's impossible to stay here.

But leaving the desert island is equivalent to missing a talisman. There are definitely a lot of people who have been staring at them over the years, and without the protection of the military, there must be a lot of trouble behind. Instead of living in fear, it is better to go to the new colonies to open up wasteland.

After so many years on this small island, there must be experience in land reclamation. And the family money they saved before is enough for them to have a good start. Maybe in a few years, it will become a new giant.

In the following conversation, Li Muti did not mention the big sea turtle again, and only communicated with Xu Dapeng on the issue of immigration. As for Xu Dapeng's repeated hints of giving benefits, Li Mu didn't take it to heart.

Because other things have nothing to do with Li Mu, his scope of work is limited to immigration. As for the reason for the other party's immigration, it has nothing to do with him. Whether it is Xu Dapeng and his wife or the immigration bureau, they are just passers-by in Li Mu's life.

Li Mu never thought about what he wanted to develop, he only thought about surviving this period and continuing to go back to be his second ancestor. The oil and water given by Xu Dapeng ordinary people will be hot when they look at it, but compared with Li Mu's previous pocket money, it is not even a fraction.

The second young master's mind was very clear-headed, but he didn't expect one thing.

The big turtle didn't come to lay eggs.
