Chapter 525: Chapter 527 Most 200 Dollars_1

"Xuelin, if you have no objections, I'll buy it," Alice said after hearing what the shopkeeper had said. When she looked at the golden turtle again, her face expressed just how much she liked it.

Hu Xuelin snapped back to reality and looked at Alice strangely, asking, "Why would you be interested in this?"

Using a golden turtle as a gift seemed a bit... too lowbrow.

However, Alice confidently explained, "From what I understand about Huaxia, a turtle represents longevity. Back in ancient times, many people used to give each other turtles as gifts. And gold, in Huaxia, symbolizes nobility. It's not just people from Huaxia; almost everyone around the world likes gold things. That's why I want to give Uncle Hu this as a sign of respect."

Hu Xuelin laughed bitterly and said, "Do you know that a turtle also has another meaning in our Huaxia?"

"What meaning?"

"It's also called a 'wangba'."

"Wang...ba? That's not a bad name," Alice considered and then commented.
