Their latest excursion led them to bag some 2,500 chrysanthemums within 90 minutes. The couple planned to sell the flowers in neighboring cities.

他們最近一次盜竊行爲是在90分鐘不到的時間裏，打包走了2500株菊花。這對夫妻還計劃在鄰市出售這些鮮花。

"They claimed that they were only cutting off leaves, and that they didn't know it was against the law," a police officer surnamed Hu told .
