Turtle rearing has gone on in Taiwan since the Japanese occupation, and the techniques used are amongst the most refined in the world. The Li family have set aside a special turtle-rearing room in their farm, and on top of this one of Mrs. Li's daily duties is heading out to neighboring towns and villages to buy turtle eggs, some of which get shipped on to mainland China.
台灣繁殖甲魚從日治時期至今，技術堪稱全球一流，李家也設有甲魚繁殖室，李太太每天的例行工作之一，就是在鄰近鄉里四處收購甲魚卵，再海運送往中國大陸。
