The food on the table is actually very simple, a bowl of vegetarian dishes, a bowl of braised pork, a bowl of fried rice cake, and a bowl of chicken soup.
The portions of the dishes are not large, so they are all served in larger porcelain bowls.
According to Mr. Guo, he usually only eats by himself and a nanny, so the meals he cooks are basically for two people. This time the nanny went home for the New Year, and there was originally one less person, but Lin
When fate comes, it’s pretty much the same as usual.
"Don't you want to find a wife?" Lin Zhiming asked while eating.
"Why are you looking for a wife?" Mr. Guo asked.
"Carry on the family lineage and provide for your retirement." Lin Zhiming said.
Mr. Guo shook his head, took two mouthfuls of rice from his bowl, and said nothing more.
Lin Zhiming felt a little emotional. The top leader of the dragon clan was destined to have no one to take care of him until his death. This seemed to be a very incredible thing.
But this is what makes Mr. Guo different from others. He dedicated everything to the Dragon Clan and this country. He has no descendants or lovers, which means that he does not need to be affected by love and family.
Tired, he can do things without reservation, without worrying about future generations, and without making plans for others.
Lin Zhiming picked up the wine glass on the table and clinked it with Mr. Guo's glass.
"I've prepared some supplements for you, and I'll ask the nanny at home to add them to your three meals a day." Lin Zhiming said, drinking all the wine in the cup.
"I didn't see you bringing anything here. Didn't the bag just now contain Spring Festival couplets?" Mr. Guo asked doubtfully as he picked up the wine glass and drank.
"The supplements are still on the way and will arrive in a while. I bought them from abroad," Lin Zhiming said.
"Now I have to talk to you, are things from foreign countries necessarily good? Nowadays, many people always talk about this and that in foreign countries. In fact, let me tell you, many things in foreign countries are not necessarily as good as those in our country.
Mr. Guo said seriously.
"But some things are indeed better than ours." Lin Zhiming said.
"Be careful, you are now the Dragon King, and even more so the Holy King, there are some things you cannot say." Mr. Guo said.
Lin Zhiming smiled, picked up the wine bottle and poured a glass for Mr. Guo.
"What are the old man's plans for the New Year?" Lin Zhiming asked.
"What else can we plan? New Year is the New Year for us Dragon Nation people. Foreigners don't celebrate the New Year. The Dragon Clan must also keep operating. We will go back to work tomorrow." Mr. Guo said.
"Bogut is dead, so there's no need to work so hard," Lin Zhiming said.
Mr. Guo shook his head and said, "Although Bogut is dead, the Tree of Life is still there. Whether it is destroying their factory or transporting fake juice into the market, it is only slowing down the development of the Tree of Life. We really
What we need to do is to prevent the Tree of Life from having any soil to survive. This is a long and arduous task. After the year, we will hold a research meeting on whether to allow the Tree of Life to enter the Dragon Kingdom market, and the results of the poll
It shows that 65% of the people support the introduction of juice into the Dragon Kingdom. If we cannot reduce this data to less than 50% before the seminar begins, then in the future, the introduction of juice into the Dragon Kingdom will become
inevitable."
After hearing Mr. Guo's words, Lin Zhiming's expression became much heavier.
"What's the current attitude from above?" Lin Zhiming asked.
"No attitude." Mr. Guo shook his head.
"No attitude?" Lin Zhiming frowned.
"Well." Mr. Guo nodded and said, "It is not a good thing for us to have no attitude, because just half a year ago, the attitude from above was very firm and consistent with ours, but now, this situation seems to be
There has been a shift.”
"Some action must be taken after the new year." Lin Zhiming said.
"Lao Chen and I have the same idea, but what exactly this action is is still debatable," Guo Lao said.
Lin Zhiming remained silent and did not speak.
At this moment, the sound of opening the door suddenly came from the door.
"The supplements are here." A smile appeared on Lin Zhiming's face.
Mr. Guo was stunned for a moment and looked at the door.
At the door, a familiar figure walked in from outside.
Seeing this man, Mr. Guo suddenly stood up, tears instantly filling his eyes.
The man at the door walked into the yard with large and small bags in his hands.
Mr. Guo looked straight at the other person and shouted two words slowly.
“Blog post…”
The visitor was none other than Zheng Bowen, who had been sent out of the Dragon Kingdom by Lin Zhiming before.
"Father..." Zheng Bowen walked a few steps and came to Mr. Guo, and then knelt down to Mr. Guo.
"Father, Bowen is unfilial..."
Lin Zhiming held his chin with one hand and watched Zheng Bowen and Mr. Guo reminiscing about old times.
The two of them hadn't seen each other for a long time, and they didn't seem to expect to see each other on the first day of the new year, so they had endless things to talk about.
After reminiscing about old times, Mr. Guo pulled Zheng Bowen to sit at the table.
Lin Zhiming also very wisely went into the kitchen and took out a new pair of bowls and chopsticks and placed them in front of Zheng Bowen.
"So you have to come to my place for dinner today because you brought back Bowen?" Mr. Guo looked at Lin Zhiming and asked excitedly.
"This is a Spring Festival gift for you old man." Lin Zhiming said with a smile.
"If someone is aware of it..." Mr. Guo said.
"The biggest enemy in the dragon clan, Cai Hui, is dead. No one will pay attention to a dead person." Lin Zhiming said.
"Even so, it would not be a wise move for Bowen to come back. If Old Chen finds out..." Mr. Guo said with some worry.
"Mr. Chen already knows about this matter," Lin Zhiming said.
"He knows?" Mr. Guo looked at Lin Zhiming in surprise.
"Mr. Chen, like me, thinks that you are all alone and need someone to take care of you, and more importantly, someone to take care of you until you die, so we thought of some ways to let Bowen return to China and live in China for a long time.
No one will mention the past, believe me." Lin Zhiming said.
"I now have a new identity, foster father." Zheng Bowen said.
Mr. Guo looked at his adopted son in front of him, and then at Lin Zhiming. After a long time, he said with sincere gratitude, "Zhiming, thank you..."
"There's no need to say thank you, and there's no need for us to be so polite. I've almost eaten, and the rest of the time will be left to you two. I'll leave first." Lin Zhiming stood up and said.
"Drink two more drinks." Mr. Guo said.
"I know you two have a lot to say in private, so I won't be a lightbulb here anymore. If you have time, come to my place." Lin Zhiming smiled.
"Then I'll give it to you!" Zheng Bowen stood up and said.
Lin Zhiming nodded and walked out with Zheng Bowen.
When he came to the door, Zheng Bowen said to Lin Zhiming, "I don't have much to say thanks. If you need anything from me, just ask."
"Take good care of the old man." Lin Zhiming smiled and patted Zheng Bowen on the shoulder, then turned and left.
Looking at Lin Zhiming's leaving figure, Zheng Bowen's eyes were full of gratitude.
After leaving Guo's hometown, Lin Zhiming went to several more places.
For him, there are many people who need to pay New Year's greetings on the first day of the new year.
Zhao Shijun was considered to have the most respectable status among all the people who needed to pay New Year's greetings, so when Lin Zhiming went to Zhao's house this morning, he did not expect to see Zhao Shijun at all, and he thought that based on his relationship with Zhao Shijun, he
Just go to Zhao's house and deliver gifts. There is no need to wait for an hour or two at the door of Zhao's house. What he didn't expect was that Zhao Shijun summoned him alone and even wanted to keep him for dinner.
Lin Zhiming was very wary of Zhao Shijun, an old fox, and because he was going to Guo's hometown, he refused Zhao Shijun's invitation.
What Lin Zhiming didn't expect was that this matter would spread throughout the imperial capital in just a few hours.
Lin Zhiming later went to the homes of several big bosses, and these big bosses actually knew what happened at the door of Zhao's house, and they were all very curious about it.
"Why does Mr. Zhao want to see you alone?"
"Why do you dare to refuse Mr. Zhao's private appointment?"
These are all problems for the big guys.
Faced with these questions, Lin Zhiming didn't have any good answers. He could only answer these questions with one sentence: "I don't know."
When Lin Zhiming got home in the evening, facing Dong Jian and Wang Hai who came to pay New Year's greetings, Lin Zhiming asked his doubts.
"I already got the news about this matter at noon today, and after thinking about it all afternoon, I got some ideas," Dong Jian said.
"Tell me about it." Lin Zhiming said seriously.
"I think Mr. Zhao may want to send a signal to everyone." Dong Jian said.
"What signal?" Lin Zhiming asked.
"You are his and a very close person," Dong Jian said.
Dong Jian's words were like thunder that split open the doubts in Lin Zhiming's mind.
"Master, you said before that Mr. Zhao tried to take you under his command several times, but you dealt with it skillfully. This time you went to the Zhao family to pay New Year's greetings, and he specially summoned you alone in front of so many people, even
Revealing his intention to keep you for lunch will undoubtedly create the illusion that you are his confidant and confidant. Then everyone will naturally regard you as Mr. Zhao's person, and Mr. Zhao will also appear in you.
label!" Dong Jian said.
"If the label is hung for a long time, it will have a subtle effect..." Lin Zhiming said in a deep voice.
"Yes!" Dong Jian nodded.
"Haha, he is really an old scumbag." Lin Zhiming said with a joking expression.
"For those people in the upper echelons of the imperial capital today, you, the head of the family, are nothing more than a piece of cake. According to our information, not only Mr. Zhao has thoughts about you, but also several other old gentlemen have the same thoughts about you. It's just because
Mr. Zhao has always stood in front of you. All those old gentlemen have remained silent. Mr. Zhao's behavior may also be declaring his sovereignty over you to those people. You refuse Mr. Zhao today and don't let it appear on your body.
Mr. Zhao's label is really wise." Dong Jian said seriously.
After hearing Dong Jian's words, Lin Zhiming fell into deep thought.
