Chapter 756: Zhou Ming is fishing to kill time

The Celestial Lake is one of the very famous landscapes in Donglin City. It is named after its image resembles a giant turtle that penetrates the lake and holds its head. Later, due to the continuous repairs of various dynasties, it later became a peninsula lake embedded in the Taihu Lake.

Like the Sudi Chunxiao in Xizi Lake, Hangzhou, this place has always been a destination for literati and poets to enjoy the scenery. As the most luxurious Guanhu Villa in Donglin, it was built with the reputation of Guanhu.

In the morning, a yacht was parked in the middle of the Lake Lake. Zhou Ming and Caitlin were sitting on the yacht. There were two long fishing rods in front of them, where they were fishing.

Suddenly, the fish float in front of Zhou Ming suddenly moved. It was obvious that a fish bit the hook, but Zhou Ming did not move. There was no doubt that Zhou Ming was not fishing. He was just sitting here in a daze while fishing.

Of course, it is not right to be completely dazed, because Zhou Ming is still thinking about what he should do now and what he should do in the next few days.

It is said that having endless money and plenty of time is a very enjoyable thing, but it is not the case for Zhou Ming. After all, he is not the various second-generations who have been educated by nobles or aristocratic families since childhood, and there is not so many tricks to waste time; but a lucky person who won the first prize of rebirth. In order to change his destiny in this life, Zhou Ming has almost never been idle since the day of rebirth, either thinking about the present or thinking about the future.

But now, there are obviously undercurrents in the capital Yanjing, but his wives are angry by Tian Feng and want to form a group to cause trouble for him and exclude themselves.

So suddenly, Zhou Ming became idle, and then he didn't know what he should do. Fishing in the middle of the lake in a yacht seemed to be a good way to kill time.

Suddenly, a pretty face as delicate as walking out of a fairy tale castle appeared in front of me: "Or... let's go to another place to take a look. I remember an ancient poem. The bell of Hanshan Temple outside Gusu City came to the passenger ship in the middle of the night. I think Hanshan Temple should be not far from here."

Zhou Ming smiled and waved his hand and said there was no need: "Before the matter in Yanjing is confirmed, I should not run around, so as not to come to another person like Chen Guangze. Although local leaders come to visit him everywhere, this kind of thing sounds very good, but once was enough. Too much is not a good thing. After all, I can't touch dead mice every time."

Zhou Ming is telling the truth. He has the plug-in for rebirth, so he can predict many things like a prophet, but this plug-in is not omnipotent, he is not omniscient and omnipotent, and he can know all kinds of things in every part of the country.

For others, if you don’t know some things, it doesn’t matter, but Zhou Ming doesn’t work. Now in China, except for some brainless and quick-win situations, those top forces are still waiting and watching, or simply cooperating with him. The biggest reason is that he can always win, and he has a way to solve whatever he encounters.

This is very unscientific, but the fact is that, because the higher the position, the less courageous you are. When facing people like you who have no defeat, they have to be careful and no one wants to capsize themselves.

But if one day my undefeated golden body is broken, the situation will be different.

Zhou Ming thought that this was a matter of time, but... it would be a day later. If he really walked around and gave advice everywhere, he was not a professional military advisor, and he was so inflated that he would fall into the pit one day sooner or later, so he would be more careful.

"So it's all that guy Huang Zhicheng, so I should teach him a little more lesson!"

Caitlin said angrily that she was not as smart as before at this time, and she was completely an unreasonable little woman.

"Forget it! That guy Huang Zhicheng just did a stupid thing, and it is not unforgivable for his crimes." Zhou Ming said helplessly, "and this matter may not be driven by him alone behind the scenes. There are still many people waiting and waiting to reap profits."

Zhou Ming said as he closed the reel and leaned on the chair: "So since you want me to be here with peace of mind, then you have to accompany me to be here with peace of mind, or let's change to straight hooks to fish?"

Caitlin looked surprised: "How to fish with a straight hook?"

Zhou Ming laughed and said, "I also said that I understand China very much, but I don't even know the classic allusion of Jiang Taigong's straight hook fishing wisher taking the bait?"

Caitlin nodded: "Of course I have heard of this allusion. It's just that Jiang Taigong is waiting for King Wen of Zhou, but Zhou Ming, who else do you have to wait for? Are you waiting for the one sitting in Zhongnanhai?"

"I even have to wait, and the big guy won't come!"

Zhou Ming handed the fish he caught to the coach next to him and asked him to take off the hook and hang the bait. Zhou Ming shook it back and returned to the lake: "I'm just simply killing time now!"

"That's the same. If Zhou Ming, you are going to be a counselor for others, that's too insignificant!" Caitlin said.

Zhou Ming deliberately looked up and down at her with his eyes squinted, "Yes, you are becoming more and more accomplicated now. If your face wasn't too out of shape, I would really suspect that you were a native Chinese!"

In this way, Zhou Ming chatted with Caitlin while catching fish. Two hours passed quickly. It was 11:30 noon. Zhou Ming and Caitlin also caught a lot. The coach on the yacht kept praising the two bosses for their superb fishing skills so that they could catch so many fish. He suggested that he could eat grilled fish at noon. The master of the Yanhu Villa was very good in craftsmanship.

Zhou Ming nodded and said yes, and asked a Sichuan chef to grill fish. After all, Zhou Ming was reborn and missed the spicy grilled fish on the streets in the future. Then Zhou Ming threw all the fish he caught back into the turtle lake.

This made the yacht coach very puzzled. He didn't understand why Zhou Ming had to throw them all out. These were obviously good fish!

Zhou Ming asked him: "Do customers have to fish the grilled fish in Yanhu Villa by themselves? And these are obviously not enough. Even if they are taken to the kitchen, the chef will not use these fish."

The coach felt a little embarrassed because the fact is indeed the case. The villa has requirements for the quality of its own dishes, and some ornamental fish in the lake cannot be eaten. Therefore, even if a customer fishes and makes grilled fish by themselves, instead of spending time screening in the kitchen, it is better to use the fish in the kitchen directly, which is the most convenient and trouble-free.

What else the coach wanted to say, but Zhou Ming waved his hand and said, "I don't care so much, please let the kitchen do it quickly."

While saying that, the coach contacted the villa through the intercom on the yacht and asked the villa's kitchen to prepare grilled fish first. He operated the yacht back to the villa.

After about a quarter of an hour, Zhou Ming and Caitlin returned to the villa. The kitchen calculated the time and just served a pot of red spicy grilled fish, which did not waste any time. In addition to grilled fish, there were also some Donglin special dishes such as Taihu silverfish and hairy crabs.

The meal was 2 noon. Zhou Ming and Caitlin went back to their room to rest for a while, did a little shy thing, and did not go out until the evening and had dinner. When Zhou Ming proposed to go out for a walk, Zhou Ming suddenly found that the manager of the villa became a little nervous.

"What's wrong? Is something happening?" Zhou Ming asked him.

The manager started to stammer and refused to say it. Zhou Ming then scared him and said that if he didn't say it, he would fire him. Then he had to say it out: "Mr.... Mr. Concubine, this is the case. There are people from the Zhou family coming to you outside. We are afraid of disturbing your rest, so we never dared to tell you."

"People from the Zhou family?" Zhou Ming was surprised. Why didn't the third grandfather give up after failing once? Do you really think that he has such a good temper?

Seeing that Zhou Ming's face was not very good, the manager hurriedly said, "I'm sorry, Mr. Prince Concubine, I know that such a thing should not be used to dirty your ears, so I haven't told you that I'll send them away now!"

Zhou Ming knew that he had misunderstood him, so he waved his hand and said to him: "It's not like this, don't think too much."

Zhou Ming then asked: "Who is the person in the Zhou family this time, what is the name, and how long have you been here?"

"He said his name was Zhou Huangmin. He came early in the morning. He said he was your uncle, the prince consort, and he had been waiting at the entrance of the villa. We had never let him in!" the manager replied.

Zhou Huangmin?

Zhou Ming smiled. If the person who came was an old man or a third grandfather, he would definitely feel guilty. As for this uncle Zhou Huangmin, let him wait.

Zhou Ming is not a petty person, but he doesn't turn a blind eye to some things. Last time he and his parents were treated like that at the grandfather's birthday party, Zhou Ming had already seen this guy's nature clearly. He hadn't contacted him for so long. Now he is so begging for nothing. He knows with his toes that he must have nothing to hold back. Just let him wait!

So Zhou Ming and Caitlin walked around the garden of the villa for a few more times and gave them some rectification suggestions. It was dark that Zhou Ming remembered Zhou Huangmin who had been waiting at the door again.

The manager told Zhou Ming that Zhou and Huang Min were still waiting at the door, and Zhou Ming decided to go out and take a look.

Then Zhou Ming and Caitlin took the special tour bus of the villa to the door. Under the headlight at the entrance of the villa, the two people sat on the side of the road like two dead bodies, one fat and the other thin. Zhou Ming recognized at a glance that they were his uncle Zhou Huangmin and aunt Qian Lizhu.

They are in a very bad state and are listless. Zhou Huangmin's hanging triangle eyes drooped, as if rolling his eyes, while aunt Qian Lizhu covered her stomach and murmured and shouted about hunger.

Hearing the movement inside, Qian Lizhu raised her hand without looking at it, "You guys should come in and communicate it to us as soon as possible. Do you know who we are? We are relatives of the Prince Consort. I am the Prince Consort's aunt. In the past, you had to kneel down to us when you met. Now you are leaving us here and don't care. You are so brave, and they are all unlucky!"

Zhou Ming was a little amused and crying. Qian Lizhu's voice was hoarse and powerless, obviously she was thirsty and hungry, but she didn't expect that she could even say such words.
