Liu Ji SEAFOOD RESTAURANT
Liu Yong had heard about the existence of this restaurant before but never mustered up the courage to visit it.
His hesitation was because he was intimidated by the cost, as his financial situation was limited. He felt he couldn't afford to dine at that restaurant despite his initial interest. So he walked away from that restaurant.
However, things have changed. Liu Yong now exudes confidence as he walks with a bold and powerful stride, much like a tiger. This newfound self-assurance has allowed him to overcome his financial insecurities and finally visit the restaurant.
As it turns out, the restaurant lived up to its reputation as a high-end establishment, boasting a luxurious atmosphere and friendly, attentive staff.
The workers were particularly noteworthy, exhibiting enthusiasm in their interactions with customers. Overall, Liu Yong was pleasantly surprised by his dining experience and felt that the restaurant was well worth the visit.
" I never imagined I would sit here and eat seafood one day. "
As Liu Yong sat at a table by the window on the second floor, he couldn't help but reflect on his journey to this point.
After some time, Hu Shijun approached and seated beside Liu Yong. Hu Shijun appeared very joyful and greeted Liu Yong warmly. He said with a hint of excitement in his voice,
" Brother Yong, it seems you have indeed come into some good fortune! "
Liu Yong replied,
" Yes, I was fortunate enough to have some good luck. I have indeed made a small profit. "
He was pleased with his accomplishments and was happy to share the news with his friend Hu.
" Tell me quickly, how much money you have got ? " Hu Shijun asked.
" It's not too much, just more than 10,000 yuan I mean exactly its 14,000 yuan. "
Lium Yong responded.
Hu Shijun felt astounded and said,
" Really? More than 10,000 or 14,000 yuan? That's not a small amount at all! "
After hearing his friend's reaction, Liu Yong's face lit up with a warm and happy smile.
Liu Yong chuckled and said,
" My friend, you always make me feel like I haven't seen much of the world. I guess it's just that earning more than 10,000 has made me a little overly excited. "
-More than ten thousand!
Hu Shijun felt that this was a large sum of money. He had never had such a large amount of money since he graduated almost a year ago.
Hu Shijun happily reached for the menu and said with a grin,
" Brother Yong, since you're treating me today, I won't be polite. I'll pick out the most expensive dishes! "
" Just order. "
Liu Yong said with complete generosity.
After carefully selecting several dishes from the menu, Hu Shijun put down the menu and declared,
" It should be enough food for us now. "
He appeared satisfied with his choices and ready to enjoy the meal ahead.
Despite his earlier statement about not being polite and ordering the most expensive dishes, Hu Shijun measured his selections. He refrained from choosing overly expensive options and opted for a few more modestly priced options.
Liu Yong then took the menu and ordered additional, selecting a large, more than two-catty grouper dish.
This dish alone was likely to cost several hundred dollars, far surpassing the cost of the previous dishes Hu Shijun had ordered.
Hu Shijun was secretly amazed!
" Brother Yong, it's not so cheap, it's at least a few hundred dollars. "
" It's okay, , I have money now! " Liu Yong said.
" Brother Yong, tell me about how you got rich today, and make me happy too."
Singing in thought, Liu Yong paused momentarily and then explained,
" It was quite simple, to be honest. I stumbled upon a gold chain and could sell it for more than 10,000 yuan."
Hu Shijun, however, did not seem to believe Liu Yong's story and teased him,
" Brother Yong, you're telling tall tales, just like you're lying to a child. Why can't I ever find a lucky break like that and pick up a gold chain? "
Liu Yong seemed unfazed by Hu Shijun's scepticism and replied,
" It's okay if you don't believe me. It's a hard thing to explain. "
After all, Liu Yong can't precisely say he has a pet snapping turtle that gave him the gold chain from Ink Lake.
With the conversation at a stalemate, Liu Yong changed the subject, smiling,
" Let's forget about it and eat our vegetables. That's what's important now. "
It was the first time that both Liu Yong and Hu Shijun had dined at a restaurant of this calibre, and they were both thoroughly enjoying the experience.
The rich flavours, the elegant atmosphere, and the attentive service all contributed to a truly memorable dining experience for the two of them.
They relished indulging in the luxurious surroundings and savouring the delicious food. It was an experience that they would likely never forget.
-Rare meal!
After eating for more than an hour, the two left the restaurant.
The next day, the sun was high in the sky, reaching its zenith, and Liu Yong lazily stretched his waist, feeling refreshed and rejuvenated. It was a luxurious sensation as if he was completely relaxed and at ease.
Liu Yong felt a sense of freedom and contentment he had not experienced in a long time. He no longer felt pressure to look for a job or go to work. The feeling of leisure and leisurely living was a welcome change and adapting to a newfound sense of freedom.
" I didn't expect that one day, I would also become a vagrant, but I like it. "
" How nice it is! You can sleep as long as you want and no longer have to worry about work. "
Liu thought.
After some time, Liu Yong initiated the examination of his pet by accessing the Pet panel. He was elated to see the growth of the miniature snapping turtle who had been cared for by him.
Its size had increased once again, pleasing Liu Yong immensely. He estimated that at its current pace of growth, the snapping turtle would soon reach a weight of several tens of pounds within a short period.
The tiny snapping turtle had just finished its meal and felt satiated. It had been searching for a suitable spot to bask in the sun and enjoy its day.
" The Master helped me to choose this place, which is so good. The water surface is wide, and I can do whatever I want. "
" The key, is the fish and shrimp here are delicious, really satisfying. "
The turtle thought, feeling genuinely good.
Suddenly, the turtle remembered something that Liu Yong had said and reminded itself:
" By the way, you can't forget what the Master told you. Look for it after a while. You must find something valuable again. "
A dark silhouette in the area caught the snapping turtle's interest, and it automatically swam toward it. The turtle couldn't help but become intrigued by the odd shadow.
In the past, when the snapping turtle was still relatively youthful and inexperienced, it would have reacted with fear and immediately retreated to a safe distance upon encountering a dark shadow like this.
However, as the turtle has grown and matured, its demeanour and reactions have changed, allowing it to approach and investigate potential threats by being confident.
The tiny snapping turtle had grown significantly and now weighed approximately eight to nine pounds. Its claws were sharp and robust, providing it with strong gripping power. Its bite force was also remarkable, allowing it to attack the prey. With these physical attributes, the snapping turtle was well-equipped to thrive in its aquatic environment.
It is a black fish weighing several kilograms, swimming there. The snapping turtle swam towards the black fish without any fear.
The little snapping turtle remembered the scene of being chased by a black fish a few days ago.
And it remembered what the Master said:
" The Master said this revenge must be avenged and finally found it. "
Right after it remembered the words spoken by Liu Yong, it went towards the fish.
-Oops!
The turtle had bitten the fish.
" Wow, this bite strength! " the turtle wondered about its biting capability.
With just one bite, the turtle could penetrate deeply into its prey, leaving at least five deep puncture marks. It could bite off large chunks of meat with immense bite power, making it a formidable hunter in its aquatic environment.
" Escape ! Rush, quickly ! "
The **** fish wildly thrashed its tail, attempting to break free and escape, but to no avail. The small snapping turtle had a firm grip, biting down hard with its powerful jaws while its front claws punctured the flesh and held on tightly. The fish couldn't escape the turtle's grasp due to its strength and determination.
One mouthful, two mouthfuls, three mouthfuls...…
A chaotic scene unfolded as nearby fish instinctively panicked and fled as quickly as they could in all directions, trying to escape from the confrontation. The sudden and intense struggle between the turtle and the **** fish had caused a commotion, leading the other fish in the vicinity to respond with fear and rapid retreat.
After a few bites, the **** fish burped and became a delicacy in the mouth of the little snapping turtle.
After eating about a third of it, the little snapping turtle threw away the bitten **** fish and swam away leisurely.
With successful revenge, the little snapping turtle starts to look around, whether it can find some valuable things.
It rained heavily for two days in a row. Liu Yong did not go to Mohu Lake, but he still knew about the situation of the snapping turtle.
It could no longer be called a small snapping turtle. It has grown to over ten kilograms and can be considered a big guy.
It has gained a lot of weight, and its attributes have also increased. Its agility has exceeded 20, and its strength has reached 31.
Liu Yong also basically understands that the strength of an adult is about 40 to 50, and those athletes and special forces can reach more than 90 or even more than 100.
The snapping turtle has 31 points of strength, quickly catching up to an adult, and it's a mutation.
It finally cleared up today, and Liu Yong came to the ink lake again, still looking for a relatively remote place.
Earlier today, Liu Yong had a conversation with the snapping turtle. It mentioned that it had discovered something exciting and desired to share it with him.
The snapping turtle seemed excited about its discovery and wanted to share it with its owner.
Within two minutes, the snapping turtle swam over and said,
"Master, take a look. Is this thing worth money? "
Liu Yong saw what it was, and his heart beat slightly faster. He took it and put it in his hand, looking happy.
This thing is not dark, but it does not hinder judgment at all. It is 100% a silver dollar.
-Silver dollars!
