Years: Salted fish life since going to the countryside.

Chapter 1473 The Eve of Returning Home (Part )
Han Li did his homework before going out. The monkey species native to Hong Kong are just ordinary macaques, and there is nothing special about them.

There is an old saying that "monkeys are naughty by nature", which means that monkeys are naughty, undisciplined and difficult to tame.

Even those professional monkey trainers need to whip them frequently to make them obedient. If they don't beat them for three days, the monkeys will ride on their heads and act arrogantly.

This is also the reason why few people are willing to keep monkeys even though they are very smart, have strong learning abilities, can quickly understand various instructions, and can adapt to various environments very quickly.

It is precisely because of this that if Han Li wants to buy a monkey, it is really difficult to find one at the flower, bird, fish, insect and pet markets in the Argyle Street and Kangle Street area of ​​Hong Kong.

If you want to buy monkeys in Hong Kong now, you can only go to food and farmers' markets, and you have to go to remote areas in the New Territories to find them.

Although Hong Kong currently only has regulations prohibiting the eating of cats and dogs, and no relevant policies prohibiting the eating of monkeys, there is an animal protection association here.

Although these people do not receive any salary, they often go to the market and if they find anyone buying or selling, they will report it and take other actions.

Those food vendors and merchants in the farmers' markets are all small businesses with little capital and little profit. They don't have time to accompany these rich, free-time, and well-fed people who have nothing to do.

Over time, apart from the restaurant's regular customers who made reservations in advance, few people would sell this kind of thing.

Why can you buy it in remote places like Hong Kong and New Territories? This is because those who are rich and have time will not easily set foot in those remote places.

It was precisely because of this situation that even though Han Li had done his homework in advance, he still had to go around several places before he found a market that sold monkeys.

There are a lot of monkeys here. They are crowded in iron cages like chickens and ducks, waiting for customers to choose them.

If someone chooses one of the monkeys, the stall owner will open the cage and pull it out, and if necessary, they will help kill it.

However, Hong Kong people rarely have the habit of eating monkey meat. They either buy it back to make oil-splashed monkey brains or to perform related rituals, so almost no one chooses to slaughter it on the spot.

If Han Li uses it for experiments, in order to ensure the diversity and accuracy of the data, the number of monkeys in each group cannot be less than five. This is also the default number of animals used in experiments by international research institutions.

However, Han Li needed to test the effects of three prescriptions: "Strengthening Muscles and Bones Powder", "Strengthening the Foundation and Nourishing the Essence Paste", and some rare "semi-finished products".

So Han Li needs three groups of fifteen monkeys, plus he needs to buy one more group of monkeys just in case, or as a backup, so he needs to buy twenty monkeys this time.

After Han Li selected twenty young and strong monkeys that had just reached adulthood, the stall owner caught them one by one and put them in a clean iron cage. Then six monkeys that had just been weaned and were very small, about three or four months old, that had been squeezed underneath by the group of monkeys were exposed.

When Han Li saw the six little monkeys crying loudly as they were grabbed, kicked, and trampled by the big monkeys in the cage, he felt moved and asked the stall owner to catch them and put them in separate cages.

There is a saying that goes, no matter what animal it is, it looks very cute when it is a child. This is the main reason why Han Li bought these six little monkeys.

When the stall owner saw a customer like Han Li who bought more than 20 monkeys at a time, his eyes were almost closed due to laughter. When the bill was settled, the cage containing the little monkey was given away for free. After helping Han Li put the two cages in the trunk, the stall owner watched the car leave with a sincere look on his face.

Of course, Han Li would not drive on the street with an iron cage full of monkeys, so he put all the monkeys into the vast peach garden halfway.

The fate of these monkeys is to be used for drug testing, but Han Li's three prescriptions basically have no harm to them. If they are lucky, they can even get a lot of benefits.

Even so, Han Li still couldn't bear to test the medicine on the six monkeys that were only a few months old.

Han Li himself had the experience of raising monkeys once, and he didn't think he could train these six little monkeys to be well-behaved and obedient pets forever.

In this case, you can't keep them for fun, otherwise they might cause big trouble one day.

Han Li hesitated for a moment, looking at the scars on the six little monkeys caused by the big monkeys, and finally he used the basic beast taming technique to control them.

Next, after Han Li bought enough gifts for his family and friends on the street, he did not go directly back to Jiahui Garden, but found a hotel and booked a room.

At this time, Han Li checked into the hotel room not to date someone, but to give those monkeys a bath, especially the six little ones that were controlled by the elementary beast taming technique.

If there were only one or two monkeys, Han Li would not have booked a room in the hotel. He would have gone back to his home in Jiahui Garden and let Liu Jialing give them a bath, which would have saved him trouble and effort.

But there are as many as twenty-six monkeys, so it is not appropriate to bring them home for bathing. Otherwise, if the monkeys disappear one day, we will need an explanation.

Although Han Li's vast peach garden had streams, ponds, and coastlines, he was unwilling to let the monkeys wash in them.

It would be impossible not to wash them, because these monkeys were covered in feces and filth from the iron cages in the market. In this case, Han Li had no way of testing the medicine on such monkeys.

Han Li planned to keep the six little monkeys as pets. If they were not washed clean, Han Li would never let them get close to him.

Han Li was very depressed while bathing the monkeys in the hotel. Except for the six little ones who were very well-behaved and obedient, the other monkeys looked as if they were going to be killed. If they were not locked in iron cages, who knows how chaotic they would be.

Han Li rinsed off the dirt and feces on the monkeys, took out some laundry detergent and washed them with it. After watching the monkeys scratch themselves in fear, he took out the water pipe and rinsed them again and the work was done.

After washing everything, Han Li took the six little ones into the vast peach garden and let them move freely. He told them not to harm the ginseng and not to waste any food and then left them alone.

As for the twenty monkeys used for drug testing, their only fate was to be locked in iron cages.

However, after Han Li came out of the hotel, he immediately went to find an iron product store, where he customized twenty iron cages for the monkeys who were testing the drugs. The cages were spacious enough for them to live in and had a certain amount of space for activities.

Han Li finished everything and drove to the vicinity of Central when a violent explosion suddenly sounded on the street ahead.
