Chapter 80: The Ghost Boat on the Nansha River
Sitting on a dilapidated wooden boat, Ren Song looked back at the cold little red girl who was shivering a little, and Xiao Tiantian who was looking around, and then stared at the young man rowing with a wooden oar in the stern of the boat and said, "Brother Zhou, how long will it take to get to your house?" ”
After a conversation on the hill just now, he already knew that this young man's surname was Zhou, called Zhou Hong, but what really surprised Ren Song was his nickname Zhou Laoqi, a chain restaurant with a very prosperous reputation in Luozhong, the name is called Zhou Laoqi Basin Fish, all kinds of fish dishes made there are extremely delicious, and there are many large fish and meat, which are extremely famous in the city, not only Ren Song, but even the little girl Sun Qiuhong has also tasted it twice.

So when Zhou Hong reported his nickname, he immediately thought of the familiar name of the store, and the little girl blurted out, Ren Song, who originally thought it was just the same name, accidentally found that this dark-skinned Zhou Laoqi like a fisherman, heard Sun Qiuhong's words, he smiled and did not explain, but his expression was full of pride. Later, I learned from his mouth that the restaurant was really opened by him.
Sitting on the wooden boat at this time, Ren Song looked at Zhou Hong, who was rowing behind him, and still had some doubts in his heart, who could believe that this plainly dressed and honest-looking young man behind him was the owner of more than ten chain restaurants in Luozhong.
At this time, Zhou Laoqi, the big boss who has been identified by Ren Song as pretending to be a cat and eating an elephant, is rowing the oars at will. Although he pulled the oars very slowly, the speed of the boat was extremely fast, like a car in motion, and a loose plank on the side of the boat was squeaked by the oncoming cold wind.
Hearing Ren Song's question, Zhou Hong seemed to remember something, and smiled at them, his white teeth were particularly dazzling against the background of his dark face, but when he raised his hand and waved, the wind in his ears immediately stopped, and the wooden boat seemed to have a shield, and there was no longer the cold just now. But I heard him smile apologetically: "But it's my negligence, I used to run in the water before, and I rarely used the boat, so I forgot to help everyone avoid the wind." ”
Although this sound a little strange, but remembering that he first borrowed the water escape method to emerge from the river, and then dragged the wooden boat out of the water, Ren Song and the three of them did not feel wrong. And Xiao Tiantian smiled even more: "No wonder the boat is so broken, I know how to escape from water, but this boat is a burden." Zhou Hong didn't refute when he heard this, just smiled, and said to Ren Song: "My house is not far upstream, and it will take ten minutes at most!" With that, he continued to swing the oars.
"Huh?" Sun Qiuhong, who was beside Ren Song, suddenly asked in surprise: "Brother Ren Song, why did the people on the shore hide when they saw our boat as if they were ghosts?" As he spoke, he pointed to the embankment on the left.
Ren Song looked in the direction she pointed, and sure enough, several figures were scattering and hiding, looking at them with horror on their faces while dodging. The coward took a closer look at the movement on the ship, and when he saw that it was not very strange, he couldn't help but smile and said: "Xiaohongmei, you are mistaken, people may not be hiding from our ship......" As soon as he said this, this coward was shocked, and hurriedly got up and looked at the rear, for fear that there was some monster behind the boat.
"Don't panic!" Zhou Laoqi at the stern of the boat said with a smile on his face: "They thought it was ...... because they couldn't see the people on the boat, and the boat was going upstream."
"Ghost ship!" Almost at the same time, Ren Song and Sun Qiuhong shouted in unison. There are rumors in Guluo that there is a strange ghost boat on the Nansha River, the boat is empty, but it is not floating along the water, but going straight upstream, Gu said that the people who see it will be unlucky, or lose their wealth and life, or be seriously ill, and the lightest will also suffer from eye diseases, and see things in a blur within a year.
Neither Ren Song nor Xiaohongmei ever thought that they were sitting on the legendary ghost ship now, and the two walked around the boat in amazement, but they didn't find any difference, as if they were ...... It's just an ordinary wooden boat.
"Tsk, tsk! I can't imagine that Brother Zhou, your family still has this kind of play! Although he didn't see the way out of the door for a long time, Ren Song also knew that this boat was extraordinary, and couldn't help but turn his head and smile at Zhou Hong, who was paddling.
"Hey! This is not my family, it is to meet you, my daughter-in-law borrowed ...... from her mother's family" Zhou Laoqi, who was sitting at the stern of the boat, smiled and said while rocking the oars.
"Your daughter-in-law again?" Ren Song frowned when he heard this, and said in his heart: "It is also your daughter-in-law's idea to accept me, and the boat is also borrowed by your daughter-in-law, is there anything ...... Zhou Laoqi's daughter-in-law and Lingguan's father Special relationship? ”
"Hey, can you stop going over the top? Even the spirit officer's father has to be suspicious! In his mind, Shannian himself said angrily: "Don't think so dirty, okay?" ”
Ren Song grinned, but he didn't answer in his heart. However, Zhou Laoyi, who was sitting in the back, coughed lightly, probably seeing other meanings in Ren Song's smile, the restaurant owner who looked like a fishman said with a smile: "Actually, it is not my daughter-in-law herself who asked me to answer you, but her mother's family!" ”
"Brother Zhou, where is your daughter-in-law's maiden home? I wonder which of her mother's relatives knows our boss and his father? Xiao Tiantian, who was sitting next to Sun Qiuhong, heard the words and asked, this fox has always been extremely suspicious, and when he heard what he said, he naturally wanted to ask clearly.
"Huh!" Listening to her question, Zhou Hong just smiled. Then he turned his head to look at Ren Song and said, "Brother Ren, don't worry, when you get to my house, you will naturally know." It's not that I deliberately sold Guanzi, it's that their mother's family rules are big, and I am not allowed to mention the origin of her family. ”
"What kind of rule is this?" As soon as Zhou Hong's words came out, Ren Song and the three of them were all surprised, and they were a little curious about the origin of Zhou Hong's daughter-in-law's mother's family. ”
"Fishpond?" Zhou Hong was a little flustered when he heard this: "What fish pond?" ”
"Old Zhou's pot fish? You open so many restaurants, and they all sell fish, but you don't live in the city to watch your own business, but come to live by the Nansha River, isn't it because of the fish pond contracted here? ”
"Yes!" Ren Song, who was on the side, also nodded again and again when he heard this: "No wonder the fish you have there is delicious, it must be fresh from the fish pond, so it tastes so good?" "I remember when I was alive, I went with my colleagues to eat potted fish, whole bottles of beer, large pieces of fish...... That's cool! This cowardly almost spilled water......
"Hehe, you are mistaken, all the raw materials of the potted fish made by my family are natural and wild, and they have never been artificially raised...... Zhou Hong at the stern of the boat smiled honestly: "I didn't pack any fish ponds, those fish are all caught from the Nansha River?" ”
"That's, isn't it?" Ren Song said with a look of disbelief when he heard this: "There are more than ten restaurants, how many fresh fish can be obtained in a day, and it can't be interrupted, even if there are more fish in the river, it is impossible to guarantee that the number is enough every day, right?" …… Could it be ...... Is it because of this ship? The coward suddenly thought of the ghost ship under him.
"Of course not, this boat is for carrying passengers, not for fishing?" Zhou Hong heard his last words, and shook his head again and again.
"How did that happen?" Ren Song asked a little strangely when he heard this.
