Chapter 755 How fun is it to pick mushrooms?
Branson was scowling when he found Xiao Peng on his motorcycle. He was indeed picking mushrooms in the island's woods. Crucially, he was in a good mood, singing as he went: "A little girl picking mushrooms, carrying a large bamboo basket. In the early morning, barefoot, she walks through the forests and hills..."
"Xiao, what are you doing?" Branson interrupted Xiao Peng's singing.
As a result, Tilty, who was standing by, got anxious: "Hey! Hey! Stop making trouble!"
Branson was very upset: I did something wrong and I am causing trouble!
Xiao Peng laughed heartily and stopped the anxious Tildy, saying, "Branson, don't blame Tildy for being anxious. Just now when we were here, I hummed a Yunnan folk song from our country, and she heard it and insisted I sing it again so she could find inspiration for a remix. You interrupted me, so of course she's anxious! Tildy, I'll sing it for you again when we get back!"
Tilty muttered, "This place has a sense of nature, and it's best to record it here."
After saying that, she ran to the other side with a look of grievance to complain to Abby.
Xiao Peng spread his hands: "Branson, don't mind! Why are you here? Didn't you say you wanted to take a rest?"
After parking his motorcycle, Branson said, "Xiao, there's another fight going on over there!"
Necker Island is a small island. The main means of transportation here are four-wheeled ATVs and motorcycles. Branson is an absolute speed enthusiast. He has his own F1 team and motorcycle team. When he was in the UK, he often went for a ride with hundreds of motorcycles. It was so impressive. Xiao Peng and his friends also rode four-wheeled motorcycles when they had nothing to do on the island. The island is not big, so it is convenient to ride a motorcycle.
"Huh?" Xiao Peng was stunned after hearing this. "Is it going to be men versus men, women versus women, or mixed doubles?"
Seeing Xiao Peng's eyes shining, Branson frowned. "Why are you so excited? This time it's two men fighting. I went to see, it was the friends that Prince Beaujense brought with him. It's nothing serious, just quite embarrassing."
After hearing this, Xiao Peng said with a dull look, "Two men fighting? That's boring. If it's two women fighting, I'll go over and take a look. Ka Xin, go and deal with it!"
After hearing this, Kasin said, "Okay, boss!"
Watching Kasim leave, Branson asked, "Xiao, don't you want to go and take a look?"
Xiao Peng spread his hands and said, "What does a broken brain have to do with me? If it were a fight between girls, I'd probably go back and get a small stool to drink beer and watch. But two grown men fighting? No matter how fierce they are, they can't be a match for us brothers. How can it be as fun as picking mushrooms here? Look at your island, there are so many delicious mushrooms and you don't even pick them. It's really a waste!"
"What's so fun about picking mushrooms!" Branson couldn't help but complain.
Xiao Peng laughed and said, "You don't understand, do you? What is the racial talent of us Chinese? It's our love of farming! We Chinese love farming from the bottom of our hearts! Our astronauts brought back soil from the moon, but the thing that ordinary people here are most concerned about is: Can lunar soil be used for farming? What if your island belonged to me? My first priority would be to plant vegetables and fruits on it!"
Branson thought for a moment, then nodded. "I believe this. When I was a guest at the Li family's house, they had melons and fruits planted in a corner of their magnificent mansion. You Chinese people are truly baffling."
"What's so confusing about this? Our Chinese history is, frankly, a history of fighting hunger. They say we Chinese eat everything, but the truth is, we're just hungry." Xiao Peng said, "Our China is said to be 'vast and rich in resources,' but if you're familiar with geography, you'll see that the west is a plateau, the center is prone to floods, and only a small part of the country is suitable for survival. And with so many people to feed, how can we not quickly find a way to fill our stomachs? Farming is the easiest way for us to get enough food."
Branson said, "But now that we don't have to worry about food and clothing, why do we still have to do this?"
Xiao Peng laughed and said, "Branson, you can't say that. Let me tell you this. China is truly enormous. After all, the entire country has only just emerged from its crisis. Just two years ago, there were still places in our country where people didn't even have electricity. As the saying goes, 'In times of peace, be prepared for danger.' That's why Chinese people, no matter when or where they go, never forget to leave a way out for themselves!"
Branson laughed and said, "What a great saying: 'Be prepared for danger in times of peace.' But Xiao, your words and your actions seem to be completely different. When I first saw this small island, I never imagined that anyone would vacation here for several months. Even if I were to stay here for a few days, I would still go to another large island to spend some time."
Xiao Peng smiled and said, "Do you feel lonely? Then you should thank us. We came here to play and not only gave you money, but also made you feel lively again."
Branson almost cursed after hearing this, "You call this lively? You call this noisy!"
"Well... Xiao, since you like islands like this so much, why don't you buy one? It's not expensive to buy an island here. I only spent a few million when I bought this island. The construction cost is a little higher, but it only cost 20 million."
Xiao Peng smiled and said, "Twenty million is enough for you because your island is close to other inhabited islands, and your island is not very big. You can see that I like a busy life, and a small island like this is not my cup of tea."
Branson said, "If you're looking to buy a large island, I can also recommend some for you. There are plenty of islands for sale here. We're short of everything here, except islands."
After hearing this, Xiao Peng waved his hand and said with a smile, "Branson, please forgive me! I live on the sea every day, and now I can't wait to get away from it. I come here for vacation because the girls like it. They don't live on the sea like us all year round and don't know how terrible the ocean is, the strong winds and waves, and the boring life. Can't you see that I would rather pick mushrooms here?"
Branson smiled and said, "That's not something you'd expect someone to say if they bought the Luna. If you dislike the ocean so much, why did you spend so much money on it?"
Xiao Peng's expression was calm. "If I were still in China, I would never buy this boat. But I live in Europe, and you know the people there. You wear casual clothes all day long and never a suit, but when you first started your career, didn't you also wear a suit every day? Since I live in Europe and interact with people here, I naturally need these things to prove my identity. I bought a yacht just to make people look up to me when I'm around. It can't be helped. I'm also a vulgar person."
"Well……"
