"I really envy Mr. Zhang for finding such a paradise, without worldly distractions, and being able to enjoy such delicious food. This watermelon chicken is really an eye-opener and a feast for the eyes." A man in brocade clothes was sitting opposite Mr. Zhang.
, what is placed on the table is the watermelon chicken specially prepared by Lin Zhu for Dr. Zhang to entertain guests.
"No, no, I just happened to find such a considerate step-granddaughter, haha. She took care of all this. Mr. Lu doesn't mind eating more. Children can't be put on the stage, and it's rare that Mr. Lu is willing to do so.
"Thank you for your face." There was pride in Old Doctor Zhang's tone. Lin Zhu really helped him grow his face. Lu Mingtao was famous for his tricky tongue. All the major restaurants and restaurants in the capital made dishes that suit his appetite a selling point. Which dish?
If he says it's delicious, the dish will be popular.
"Haha, Mr. Zhang is being too modest." Lu Mingtao took another sip of chicken soup. The sweet taste of watermelon mixed with the rich aroma of chicken soup was indescribable. "Presumably this watermelon was made by your god-granddaughter."
"Mr. Lu has good eyesight. In fact, I just mentioned it to Mr. Du Luo of your trading company. I didn't expect Mr. Lu to actually take action himself." Old Doctor Zhang was a little puzzled. He also mentioned in the letter that this watermelon was not the same.
Not much, I didn't expect the chief executive of Muyue Trading Company to come over in person, "I wonder if shopkeeper Du is here?"
"He will arrive in two days. Mr. Zhang doesn't know anything. Although this year's watermelon harvest is abundant and our business has harvested a lot, they all taste mediocre and do not suit the boss's taste. In order to select the best quality, I had to buy some watermelons.
I ran around looking for it myself." Mr. Lu pointed to the watermelon chicken on the table, "Master Zhang, the watermelon here is extraordinary."
"The watermelon has been planted in the well. Mr. Lu will taste it carefully later. I promise you that your trip will be worthwhile." Lu Mingtao is just a businessman. As the old doctor Zhang who was the imperial doctor, there is no need to be so polite to him.
, although Muyue Trading Company is somewhat famous, it is not from a big family. It just appeared suddenly three years ago. It has extraordinary means and has occupied a place in the capital within a year. Shengyuan has four major trading houses. However, it was defeated by this small business.
Of course they were not happy that Kokitsu had seized the market share. Under the joint boycott, Kokitsu took away a lot of business without hurting the enemy. In three years, Kokitsu became one of the five major trading houses. The details of the boss of Kokitsu are very mysterious.
, there are only five people who know about it. Dr. Zhang happens to be one of these five people.
How many people want to know who Mu Yue’s boss is. He can recruit a business wizard like Lu Mingtao under his command. The biggest contributor to Mu Yue’s current achievements is undoubtedly Lu Mingtao. Old Doctor Zhang also admires him very much. But it makes Old Doctor Zhang even more
What I admire is Mu Yue’s boss. Under such a background, he can still build such a large family business without showing off. On the one hand, he sighs for his life experience, and on the other hand, he admires his talent. "Boss Mu
Are you ok?"
"The boss is very nice. But as you know, when summer comes, his appetite will not be good." Dr. Zhang had seen and treated Boss Muyue, so Lu Mingtao had nothing to hide from him.
"Heart disease is difficult to cure." Dr. Zhang knew the reason for his poor appetite, but he was suffering from the lack of a good cure, and he couldn't help but sigh.
At this time, Butler Zhang brought up the cut watermelon. Old Doctor Zhang glanced at him. When he nodded, he knew that Lin Zhu's matter had been taken care of, so he let him go.
"Master Lu, come and taste this watermelon. How do you like it?"
"Okay, since the watermelon used for cooking is always so delicious, this original watermelon should be even better." Mr. Lu said as he picked up a piece of watermelon, took a bite, and wanted to taste it in his mouth.
He tasted it carefully, but when the watermelon juice burst into his mouth, he couldn't hold it back. This was the first time he ate without grace. Fortunately, he didn't lose his composure, although the speed was a bit faster.
"Haha, it doesn't matter. I'm not much better than you when I ate it for the first time." Dr. Zhang also picked up a piece. This time he could control himself a little and ate much slower.
"The taste is indeed far better than what I have eaten in the past, and I think it will satisfy the boss's appetite." Putting down the watermelon rind, Mr. Lu wiped the juice on his lips, "It seems that I have to get a good price to buy all the watermelons.
It’s in.”
"You can't give me less for the price, but you can't buy all of this watermelon." Old Doctor Zhang smiled and spoke out Lin Zhu's request slowly, "Girl Zhu said, you have to keep 20% for yourself.
hehe."
"Mr. Zhang, this is not just for her alone. She can't finish the 20% by herself. You won't have any help in it." Lu Mingtao and Dr. Zhang have known each other for a long time, so naturally they also
I know his hobbies.
"Haha, to be honest, I didn't say anything. It's just that my god-granddaughter honored me and kept my share." Dr. Zhang was a little proud. "Your good fortune is really enviable.
." Lu Mingtao bowed his hands to Dr. Zhang.
"What's there? Watermelons will be available at my farm next year. If I go home next year, I won't be afraid that I won't be able to eat such delicious watermelons." Chang's mother has already told him that next year not only can he grow watermelons, but also specialties like this
Lin Zhu would prepare watermelon seeds. Hahaha, old doctor Zhang felt that ever since he got to know Lin Zhu, his little hobby has always been satisfied.
"Master Zhang is very good at eating. Who doesn't know this in the capital? Mr. Lu would like to congratulate you first." Lu Mingtao said to him with a smile, "I wonder if the boss will be lucky enough to eat this freshly picked watermelon next year. If so,
If so, his mental illness will be better. Sigh." Lu Mingtao sighed deliberately.
"Okay, I still don't know what your plan is? It's just that there are very few of these. I wonder if I can give you some. I'll ask you in a few days." After hearing what Old Doctor Zhang said, Lu Mingtao immediately
Li Zuo saluted Mr. Zhang. "Thank you, Mr. Zhang."
"But I have to tell you one thing clearly," Dr. Zhang said to him seriously. "Please tell me, I am all ears." Lu Mingtao also became serious. "This watermelon method has been spread, you can easily know it.
But you must keep this kind of thing a secret and not talk about it."
"Of course." Lu Mingtao nodded.
"When selling this special watermelon, don't tell anyone that you bought it from Zhu Yatou. However, although the special watermelon varieties are limited, the remaining watermelon seeds after eating this special watermelon are high-quality varieties. If you
If you are willing, you can use it." Dr. Zhang told him all the details.
"Thank you, Dr. Zhang, for your teaching. I will tell the boss truthfully when I get back. I think the boss's temper is not willing for others to eat the same special watermelon as him." Lu Mingtao understands his boss's temper very well. Everything else is fine, but
If you can have this food for yourself, you won't want to share it.
"Zhu Yatou knows very well that trees that are beautiful in the forest will be destroyed by the wind, so she doesn't want outsiders to know her ability. She also told the people in Linjia Village how to grow these precious watermelons. Even so, she still has such a heart.
Unscrupulous people are here to cause trouble." Old Doctor Zhang told him that someone stole melons last night and caused trouble again today.
"It seems that it is really not easy for the little girl, but she is lucky to have your protection."
"You can only make a fortune in silence if you don't tell anyone, right?" Old Doctor Zhang joked at the end. The two looked at each other and smiled.
The next day, old doctor Zhang took Lu Mingtao to Lin Zhu's melon field, followed by Butler Zhang. The reason why he didn't let Lin Zhu follow him was to protect Lin Zhu and not let her come into contact with Lu Mingtao for fear of Lin Zhu.
Zhu was deceived by this businessman who eats people without spitting out their bones. Secondly, he didn't want Lu Mingtao to see Chang's mother. Although she had lived in the palace for a long time, there was no guarantee that he would recognize Chang's mother. Therefore, Old Doctor Zhang sold the watermelon seller
The matter was taken care of.
A group of three people came to the melon field. Lu Mingtao was happy to see the melon field growing so well. He was about to walk into the field when Butler Zhang stopped him and said, "Mr. Lu, be careful."
Lu Mingtao didn't know why. He was about to ask a question when suddenly a black dog jumped out of the melon field. It bit him. He subconsciously wanted to kick him, but the dog ducked out of the way.
.
"Heidou'er, stop." Old Doctor Zhang stopped it from the side. When Heidou'er saw Old Doctor Zhang was there, Heidou'er immediately stopped attacking and stood not far away from them. Butler Zhang stood up and blocked Lu Mingtao's body.
In front of him, he stopped him from attacking Heidouer. "Master Zhang, what is this?" Lu Mingtao almost got bitten by a dog. If this news spread to the capital, many people would be overjoyed, and his extremely smart boss
He must be the one who laughs the loudest, Lu Mingtao will never doubt this.
"This is Hei Dou'er. He usually looks at the melons in the field. Yesterday the melon thief was bitten by him and fled." Butler Zhang walked over and took Hei Dou'er aside. Hei Dou'er was still watching closely.
Lu Mingtao and Butler Zhang were responsible for keeping an eye on Heidou'er, lest he accidentally burst out and hurt someone. After yesterday's incident with the melon thief, Heidou'er's wild nature was aroused. Except for those whom Lin Zhu had confessed, no one else
Once you enter the melon field privately, you will be attacked by it, and Heidouer is good at sneak attacks, making it difficult for people to guard against. It is really unbelievable that a dog is as smart as it is. I really don’t know how Miss Zhu was raised. Butler Zhang wants to learn from her.
Yes, he also wants to raise such a good dog.
"Then it won't bite me now." Knowing the origin of the dog, he can't do anything to it. "Don't worry, with us here, as long as you don't pick the watermelon, it won't move."
Dr. Zhang was an acquaintance of Heidou'er, so Heidou'er still gave it some respect. After Dr. Zhang explained to it, it took the initiative to go back to the nest and lie down. It closed its eyes and slept without even looking at it.
A look at Lu Mingtao. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendations and monthly votes. Your support is my biggest motivation.)
