For lunch, in addition to "braised zebra and sea anemone", there are also meat buns and several vegetarian dishes such as stir-fried vegetables, stir-fried carrots, and stir-fried potatoes.
"Hmm~ This braised sea anemone is delicious!" Xu Hao sat on the right side of the plum tree. On his right was his girlfriend Feng Yaqian, while the little girl sat on the left side of the plum tree.
"This sea anemone has a slightly spicy taste and tastes a bit like artificial meat. If you taste it carefully, it has a little bit of freshness." Xu Hao chewed the sea anemone.
Li Shu smiled and said: "I mixed it with special spicy oil. I had no experience in making it for the first time, so it was so-so. I was worried about whether it was washed well before, but now it tastes like it has no teeth."
Feng Yaqian was eating the steamed buns, her cheeks bulging like a little hamster. She used her left little finger to tuck the hair around her ears. There were sparkling diamond earrings on her delicate ears, giving off a charming little charm. Come on.
"These meat buns are delicious, even better than the expensive meat buns I ate in Yanjing." Feng Yaqian said.
"Just eat it if you like." Li Shu said with a smile, looking at the diamond earrings on Feng Yaqian's ears, he was slightly surprised and said: "Yaqian, your diamond earrings are so big!"
The bigger the diamond, the higher the price. Li Shu was very surprised at how rich Feng Yaqian and Xu Hao were. He was even a little curious about how much money Xu Hao made this year.
"Hehe, this is a three-carat diamond." Feng Yaqian tilted her little head happily, then swallowed the meat bun in her mouth, looked at Xu Hao on the left with admiration, and said: "Although it is an artificial diamond, But it’s OK to be big and pretty.”.
"Artificial diamond?" Li Shu suddenly became curious: "It doesn't look like it's artificial at all."
Xu Hao finished a delicious meat bun, took two bites of braised sea anemone, and then said: "Of course you can't tell it's a man-made diamond, let alone an ordinary person who doesn't engage in diamond appraisal, just an ordinary diamond appraiser. , if they don’t use instruments, they can’t tell whether they are real diamonds or artificial diamonds!
And the most outrageous thing is that one of the ways they use machines to tell whether they are natural diamonds or artificial diamonds is to see if there are any flaws. Those with flaws are more likely to be natural diamonds, while those that are more beautiful and have no flaws are artificial diamonds.
Artificial diamonds are more beautiful than natural diamonds and much cheaper. This is simply a model of high quality and low price! I definitely want to buy artificial diamonds~
And I feel that using artificial diamonds is shameless, so I can just say it is a natural diamond, and no one else can tell. ".
Li Shu laughed loudly: "Xu Hao, what are you so excited about? How much does this pair of diamond earrings cost? 3 carats is considered large. One carat is equal to 0.2 grams, and three carats is 0.6 grams."
"It's much cheaper." Xu Hao ate half of the bun in two bites and said in a muffled voice: "I bought it from the diamond boss in Yu Province at the internal price. Two diamonds only cost 30,000 yuan! With this clarity, cut, and color, if it were a natural diamond, I’m afraid it would cost less than RMB 200,000.”
"Hiss~" Li Shu's pupils shrank and he took a deep breath.
After a few seconds of slowing down, Li Shu murmured: "30,000 for the artificial one, 200,000 for the natural one? This, this, this... It's hard not to be tempted by this price difference. Is the price already so different?"
"No, no." Xu Hao shook his head and took a few more bites of vegetables to eat. He felt that even a simple fried vegetable was very delicious: "I know the boss who sells diamonds, so I bought it at the internal price. Now In the market, the price of artificial diamonds is about 1/3~1/2 of natural diamonds.
That is to say, if a natural diamond is worth 200,000, the price of a man-made diamond of the same weight and quality is between 70,000 and 100,000. This price is not the lowest price. Businessmen pursue profit maximization, so the price of man-made diamonds can be cheaper. , but the price cuts hurt their profits. ".
"Understood." Li Shu nodded, "Even if the price is half the price, it's still a 50% discount."
"Hehe~" Xu Hao ate three steamed buns in a row before stopping to drink soup. He had practiced snorkeling all morning, and he was very tired and hungry.
"Ashu, don't think that only ordinary people buy artificial diamonds. Many rich and small-rich people also buy artificial diamonds, because artificial diamonds are really cheap and beautiful. They are high quality and low price." Xu Hao said:
"Of course they bought man-made diamonds and claimed that they might be real diamonds, but they couldn't tell with the naked eye anyway, because everyone claimed that theirs were real diamonds, so many people who didn't know the trade were confused and foolishly thought that everyone else was buying them. What about natural diamonds
For example, if you have a budget of 200,000 to buy diamonds, you can buy a real one, but then you have no money; or you can spend 70,000 to buy a man-made diamond, and the remaining 130,000 can be used to travel, eat delicious food, pick up handsome guys, and buy bags. , or even save it.
Of course, you can also spend 200,000 yuan to buy a man-made diamond, but you can buy a bigger one with better quality. ".
Xu Hao felt that he was full, and his eyes fell outside the window. The sun was shining brightly in Neverland at noon, the vegetation was steaming, and the cicadas were working tirelessly~
"For example, if the budget remains unchanged, I could only buy a diamond worth a few tens of cents, but now I can buy a diamond of one carat, etc."
Li Shu nodded, agreeing with what Xu Hao said, but he knew that people have different priorities. Some people just want natural diamonds, which is of course understandable; while some people think that the unnatural nature is not that important. , beautiful and affordable, this is normal.
After eating, a few people came to the beach. They put up parasols and deck chairs. After applying sunscreen, they lay on the deck chairs chatting and resting.
There are also cut apples, bananas, pineapples, plums, Xu Hao, and Feng Yaqian on the small cabinet next to the lounge chair that can be eaten with toothpicks.
"This fruit is so delicious." Xu Hao lay on his side on the recliner, holding a piece of apple with a slender toothpick and eating it.
His girlfriend Feng Yaqian was applying sunscreen on his back. She was wearing a separate green bikini. She had a plump figure with bulging front and back. She glanced at Li Shu's eight-pack abs with envy and gently pinched Xu. Hao, whispered: "You should also exercise, look at Ashu's 8-pack abs."
Xu Hao: “-_-||”.
However, Xu Hao did look at Li Shu's abdominal muscles with some envy. He chewed the apple in his mouth and swallowed it, wondering: "A Shu, why did you start exercising? I remember taking a bath together when I was studying in college. I remember you clearly. There’s more fat on my belly than there is on my belly.”.
"Why exercise..." Li Shu helplessly repeated Xu Hao's words, put his hands behind his head, and lay flat on the recliner: "There are not many reasons to exercise. For health, for a good figure, and for increasing masculine charm, You have to run fast, jump high, etc. to get stronger, but to be honest, exercise is really hard.”.
