Chapter 720: Brother Niu's Call (1/2)
A pot of fragrant hare meat, a bowl of delicious braised bamboo shoots in oil, and the old man's fried screws.
Coupled with a few other side dishes, the two families sat up, just one, and everyone ate with relish and happiness.
As soon as he finished lunch, Zhang Feng received a call from Niu Zhong.
"Does Xiaofeng have time today?"
"Yes, what's wrong Brother Niu, what's the matter with you?" Zhang Feng was very strange, because Niu Chong rarely asked for his help.
"Hehe, it's good if you have time, that's the case, isn't the ancient city in the county repaired? It will open in two days, and the county is going to hold an ancient city food contest at that time, so I want to ask you to do me a favor." ”
"Oh, Brother Niu, you want me to help you prepare more vegetables and yellow eels, no problem, I will ask Uncle Yu to help you prepare them when the time comes." Zhang Feng smiled and immediately replied.
"Thank you Xiaofeng, but I don't just need vegetables and yellow eels this time, I mainly want you to help me get two big fish, the bigger the better, so that my new store in the ancient city will have a gimmick, right?"
"Big fish, haven't you been in this village recently?" Zhang Feng was a little embarrassed by Niu Zhong's request.
"Hehe, brother, of course I know no, but with your fishing skills, brother, isn't it easy to catch one or two big fish?" Niu Zhong said with a compliment.
"Okay, I'll try it later, but I'm not sure about it, don't blame me if you can't catch a big fish then!" Thinking that the dried fish at home had already been bought poorly, and it was time to replenish it, Zhang Feng agreed to it.
"Haha, then thank you, brother, I'll invite you to dinner then!" Niu Chong was immediately happy when he heard that Zhang Feng had promised him.
However, Zhang Feng couldn't help but roll his eyes, "Brother Niu, can you change something else, even if you send two catties of fruit, you are more sincere than you, right?"
"Hehe, it's all my brother's fault, I forgot Xiaofeng, you were originally a chef, don't worry, next time I go to Moon Lake, I will definitely send you something good." Niu Zhong hurriedly said apologetically.
"Forget it, Brother Niu, you don't have anything to do, so be it, I'm going to go fishing too!" Zhang Feng said with a smile.
"Okay, okay!!Then trouble you Xiaofeng, you must notify me immediately if you catch a big fish later!" Niu Zhong nodded happily, and finally did not forget to tell Zhang Feng.
"Got it, goodbye!"
"Well, goodbye!"
……
Seeing that Zhang Feng was about to go out with a net bag and other fishing gear, Zhang Yi hurriedly asked.
"Big brother, where are you going?"
"Go fishing, Brother Niu just called and asked me to prepare a big fish for him. Zhang Feng smiled.
"Brother, shall I go with you?" Zhang Yi suddenly became interested in fishing, and said to Zhang Feng with a smile.
"Okay, go get a fishing rod yourself. Zhang Feng smiled and said.
Zhang Yi nodded, walked towards the utility room with a smile, and walked out with a fishing rod after a while.
Then the two brothers took their fishing gear and walked slowly towards the Moon Lake.
Moon Lake at noon
The sun is shining, but the lake is lined with greenery and several newly built pavilions, so the lake has become a favorite fishing spot for tourists in the city.
No, even if it is noon, the sun is scorching the earth, but there are still a lot of tourists by the Moon Lake, everyone is either sitting in the shade of the trees, or sitting in the gazebo, or fishing, or a small couple is talking about love, extremely leisurely and comfortable.
"Let's go, let's go over there!" Zhang Feng scanned the surroundings and found a remote place to prepare for fishing.
Although Zhang Feng is not a master of fishing, with earthworms in the backyard, even a rookie who has just learned can instantly become a master, a master, a master, and a master!
Soon the fishing rod in hand moved, and everyone noticed that the buoy on the lake was pulled down by a huge force, and the fishing line was tightened.
"It looks like a big fish!"
Although Zhang Yi is not a master of fishing, he has been exposed to it since he was a child and has a lot of experience.
"It seems that I have good luck today! I caught a big fish on the first rod" Zhang Feng was also very happy, although the big fish had not yet surfaced, but Zhang Feng had a hunch that this fish would definitely not be eliminated, at least one or twenty catties.
Zhang Feng said on his lips, his hands kept moving, pulling the fishing line, and there were waves on the lake, as long as people knew that there was a small sea fish below.
When Zhang Yi saw such a big movement, he also stared at the movement in the water tightly, wanting to see the true face of this big fish.
"Ah, I see, I see! What a big carp!" After a while, Zhang Yi couldn't help but exclaim, and finally saw the big fish in the lake.
"Why are you kid excited, isn't it just a carp?" Zhang Feng said with a disapproving smile.
"Brother, isn't the carp good? Can't you still fish for tuna here?" Zhang Yi pursed his lips, thinking to himself, big brother, your requirements are too high, and ordinary people can't meet these more than ten catties of big carp.
"I don't dare to think about tuna, but a big black fish of thirty or forty catties should be there, right? Otherwise, I won't be able to complete Brother Niu's task. Zhang Feng smiled and said in a joking tone.
"What does Brother Niu want such a big fish?? Are you going to make a treasure of the town store?" Zhang Yi asked curiously.
"It's not the treasure of the town, because the ancient city will open in two days, and the county will hold a food festival, so let me prepare a big fish for him so that he can participate in the competition at that time." Zhang Feng said while boiling the fish in the water.
"So that's the case?" The ancient city of Qingshan, of course, Zhang Yi is very familiar with, it used to be the dirtiest and most dilapidated place in the entire county, but in recent years, the county has planned to restore some of the buildings here in the late Qing Dynasty and early Ming Dynasty, ready to develop its tourism value.
"Xiaoyi, get ready for the net!"
After tossing for more than ten minutes, the big carp was finally slowly pulled ashore by Zhang Feng.
Zhang Yi's movements were not slow, and as soon as the net in his hand was copied into the water, the big fish entered the net.
This guy is not honest when he gets to the shore, and he struggles desperately. However, Zhang Feng didn't give it a chance, grabbed it, put it in the fish basket, then covered it with a lid and threw it back into the water.
"With such a big carp, the meat must be very delicious!" Zhang Yi said with a smile.
"Hehe, if you like it, I'll take it back later. Zhang Feng smiled.
"Don't, big brother, I won't do it when I bring it back, hehe, it's still delicious for you to make. Zhang Yi hurriedly waved his hand.
"Don't worry, if you eat at night, I'm afraid you won't be able to eat so much. Zhang Feng hung up the bait again, and then threw the hook into the lake.
"Ouch! mine is also fishing!" Suddenly, Zhang Yi exclaimed in surprise.
I saw a shaking in the water, and at a glance, I knew that it was the movement of the fish on the hook.
