Chapter 1582 - Find a Brick
Seafood is also available at the supermarket, and it is more convenient, so the reason why I came here is because I feel different when I buy something at the fish market, like visiting an aquarium or a tourist attraction.
Ordinary people are tired of going to the market every day to buy ingredients, but in Han Xuan's opinion, it is a very interesting experience, and many tourists will also make a special trip to the Sydney fish market, which is written as one of the must-see places in Sydney.
In recent years, many ranchers in Montana have sold their family's centuries-old ranches and moved to big cities.
Warren Buffett once personally called Gonzalez Jr. and offered to buy his Gonzalez Ranch at a high price, but was rejected, which Gonzalez Jr. can boast about for a lifetime.
It can be seen that what is not obtained is always better, people will pursue what they lack, and the poor are more in pursuit of money, and when the wealth they have reached a certain point, they pursue the true desire of their hearts.
Han Xuan is making decisions now, he is simply following his own ideas, doing whatever he wants, the days seem a little chaotic, but he himself feels comfortable.
All kinds of seafood ingredients in the Sydney fish market are the freshest, a big octopus is still alive, lying in a plastic basin filled with seawater, tentacles on the edge of the basin to try to escape, was kicked back by the stall owner, look at the thick and powerful suction cup tentacles, whether barbecue or braised will be delicious, chewy.
I didn't buy the whole one, I only bought an octopus leg, which weighed two catties, it was a very big octopus, bigger than the one in the pot, not long after he died, the stall owner boasted that he had caught it in the morning, and there was nothing fresher in the whole market, and the tentacles were still writhing unconsciously.
Recently, there has been a flood of king crabs near Antarctica, and two years ago, scientists observed a huge school of one million king crabs on the seabed of Antarctic waters.
Han Xuan picked and chosen, and finally took a super large king crab that was tied up and took it away, leaving Secretary Dawson to pay, and his cousin smiled and chose a cyan meat crab that was only four times bigger than her palm.
The poor guy spat bubbles in her mouth and was also tied up, and she coquettishly said, "Cousin, I went out without money." ”
"Why are you mentioning money with me, don't you know your cousin's nickname?"
"Huh? What nickname? “
"Walking Bank!"
Han Xuan hugged her and joked that she had never been in contact with other relatives since she was a child, and she had a good impression of this little cousin, and the two had a lot of close relationship in the past few days.
mentioned Wang Mengmeng's classmate, in fact, this little girl's family is quite rich.
At the beginning, her ancestors and grandmother's ancestors belonged to the same lineage, as a Qing Dynasty official family, with a lot of wealth, all said three years of Qing Governor's Mansion, 100,000 snowflakes of silver, although at the end of the last century because of the turmoil and decline, but it is not ordinary people can compare.
After the separation, my grandmother's family took half of the property and came to settle in the United States, and the ancestors of Mengmeng's family also took half of it, and the starting point of doing business in Xiangjiang was much higher than others.
My grandmother's family has not been short of money since she was a child, and she has never experienced a hard life even if she came to the United States, so until now she is still a little bit of a lady habit, she never buys things softly, and she will buy things she likes whenever she encounters something at the auction.
She helped pick out the clothes, cleaned up the old man brightly, and valued face the most, or reputation, which has something to do with the traditional thinking education she received from her elders since she was a child, and experienced the discrimination brought about by the "Chinese Exclusion Act" when she was a child, which led to the rise of the family, and she liked to see a group of noble ladies flattering herself.
A few years ago, the strong personality was more obvious, and after getting older, I began to look down on those, when Time magazine used her as the cover character, she commented that she was "a strong woman comparable to Margaret Thatcher", and the old man can have today, which has a lot to do with her help.
Mengmeng's family used to be in Xiangjiang can only be said to be good, not very rich, until the year before last, with the help of Han Xuan, became the exclusive supplier of Snow Mountain Ginseng East Asia, so that the fame of their dry goods store quickly rose to the first place in the industry, and the business has been very hot recently, and it is said that several branches have been opened.
The place is so big, Xiangjiang can never hide the news, once Meng Meng her Lao Tzu drank a lot of wine, boasted about the origin of her family and the Han family, the news was revealed to the magazine, and the whole Xiangjiang was shocked after it was published......
Walking banks.
This nickname is used to call Han Xuan, it is very suitable, he is really a major shareholder of several banks, Mengmeng smiled when she heard it, and told: "You were not robbed, you are so lucky, you will definitely make a fortune if you are tied." ”
"The person who wants to kidnap me can circle the earth several times hand in hand, but if you really dare to do it, I think there is a greater possibility of bad luck in the end, and it is miserable if you have money and no life to spend it."
Han Xuan looked at the things carried by the bodyguards and continued: "Okay, the ingredients are almost enough, buy some scallops."
Anya, you call my mom and ask her where she is for dinner, and if it's okay, let her come to us, and I'll call my dad......"
As he was talking, Han Xuan suddenly saw a strange little guy in a stall not far away, standing on the ice cube in a daze, walked over and stopped in front of it, and asked the old man stall owner in surprise, "You guys are here...... Can you still sell penguins? How much is a pound, how to eat, isn't it illegal? ”
That's right, there was a live little penguin standing on the ice, with a bulging belly, and his eyes met Han Xuan's.
This made him feel entangled, while wanting to taste the taste of penguin meat, but at the same time reluctant to poison the little guy, the truth of "black and white cute things since ancient times" is also applicable to penguins.
The old stall owner lowered his head and was busy cleaning the clams, laughing happily: "Haha!
No, no, no! It's not seafood, Haruru is my adopted pet, he was separated from his mother, he was born and met me at the beach, and when he saw that he looked pitiful, he brought it back. ”
“…… Sorry, I'll just say, how can a penguin only be priced at three Australian dollars. Han Xuan looked at the price list inserted in the crushed ice, which read "Penguin, three Australian dollars".
"That's my granddaughter's bad taste.
You're not the first to ask about the price, but you're the first to ask me how I should eat penguins, they're cute, or is it better to eat clams, would you like to have a little bit?
Wow, it's you, the little Chinese super-rich man in the United States, right? ”
"It's me, I'm right, let's get two pounds of clams, can I pet it?"
……
Unlike those emperor penguins who are born with an aristocratic appearance, Han Xuan saw them in the documentary and recognized them as the only little blue penguin that breeds and lives in Australia.
It is very short, only about 40 centimeters, it is already an adult, and its fat shape is naturally joyful, and the number of wild communities exceeds one million, and it is not included in the list of protected animals.
After asking for the owner's permission, Han Xuan reached out to touch its belly, and the little guy looked down at his hand, and instead of resisting, he took two steps forward.
Penguin cubs are covered with down, and adult penguin feathers feel more like a duck to the touch, which is harder than duck feathers, and the thick feather layer allows penguins to effectively withstand the cold.
It's okay for him to touch it, it's okay for Anya and Mengmeng to touch it, Gabriel just put his face in front of it, ready to reach out, but he didn't expect the penguin to spread its wings and twist its body, and then left and right on his face, slapping a few times, and the sound was loud.
Then he stepped on the seafood, twisted his butt and trotted all the way, stood at another counter, and continued to stand stupidly, as if it was not the one who hit the person just now.
Gabriel was stunned, Han Xuan gloated and patted him on the back, and laughed: "You are so cheap, put your face in front of it and let it beat." ”
"I forgot to tell you that Haruru loves Bruce Lee movies, it practiced kung fu."
“……”
In the face of the old stall owner's teasing, Gabriel was full of helplessness, touching his face, he couldn't fight with the penguin, and raised his middle finger to despise it.
Meng Meng asked Han Xuan, "Are you going to go to Antarctica to see penguins?" ”
Han Xuan shook his head and jokingly told her: "I won't go for the time being, I can't beat them now, I'll talk about it when I practice......"
