MTL - As a Magnate, I Started Checking in at a Convenience Store

  Chapter 554 Meet the third brother by chance!

   "Boss, do you think Mr. Ling is in a daze now!" Lin Wu's face was full of excitement, and the expression of early morning had already been imagined in his mind.

   "Maybe!" Zhou Chao put his phone away with a calm face.

  The little warning just now can be regarded as a magic spell for Chen Chen, so as not to make him lose himself.

  Glanced at the headquarters building of Mayfly Group, said lightly: "Let's go!"

   "Boss, shall we go straight home?"

  Hearing this, Zhou Chao glanced at him angrily, "Why don't you go home, why, you still want to find a place to have fun?"

   "Boss, I'm an old and serious person, how could I have such small thoughts!

  I just want to ask if I want to go to Gusu. After all, the magic capital is not far from Gusu. I can just go and see your garden and yard, boss! "Lin Wu turned around and said.

  Zhou Chao then remembered the Gusu garden yard that Liu Xu gave him when he made amends.

  As the saying goes, Gusu gardens are the best in the south of the Yangtze River, and gardens in the south of the Yangtze River are the best in the world. Zhou Chao's garden is located in the ancient town of Jiangnan, and he is quite interested in that garden.

   After pondering for a moment, Zhou Chao waved his hand directly, and the two drove directly to Gusu.

  Magic City is about 90 kilometers away from Wuzhong District, Gusu. Zhou Chao and the others drove for nearly an hour and a half before arriving at the destination.

   "Huancui Villa!" Zhou Chao whispered while looking at the plaque on the gate.

  Looking at the several stickers hanging next to the gate, it is impressive that they were issued by relevant units, and among them are the words of cultural relics protection units.

  The dark black door gives people a quiet feeling, and the paint on the door can be seen that it has just been painted.

   Behind him, Lin Wu took out the key from the file bag, and quickly walked forward to open the door.

   Zhou Chao stood at the door and watched for a while, then strode in. The first thing he saw was a rockery.

   Without stopping at all, he strode into the yard with big strides, and Lin Wu who was following behind hastily closed the gate.

  Passing through a cave gate, a courtyard like a water village in the south of the Yangtze River appears in front of you.

   With the lotus pond as the center, it is built according to the pond. There are Taihu stone rockery stacked around the pond, and there are brick-carved gate towers and octagonal pavilions!

   What attracted Zhou Chao’s attention the most was the two lake rock rockeries formed by stacking stones following the traditional garden stone stacking technique and artistically refined and exaggerated.

  It gives people a feeling of eye-catching, and this alone is much more ornamental than Zhou Chao's courtyard in Kyoto.

   "Boss, this garden is too beautiful. Now I finally understand why those rich people like to buy this kind of place!"

  Zhou Chao glanced at Lin Wu beside him and said with a smile: "Oh, you can still see this, tell me, why rich people like to buy this kind of stuff!"

   "Enjoy! How comfortable it is to live in this kind of place!"

   "What you said still makes sense." Zhou Chao nodded lightly.

  As Lin Wu said, many rich people who love this kind of courtyard start from enjoying it. This is not only a visual enjoyment, but also a psychological enjoyment!

   Zhou Chao strolled around the lotus pond, then walked into the back room.

All the houses are basically built next to the lotus pond. It is a typical architectural style of Jiangnan water town, with large white powder walls as the keynote, black and gray small blue tile roofs and blue gray water-milled brick door frames and window frames, and chestnut or dark gray wooden beams. The frame decoration gives people an elegant and quiet feeling.

   Walking into the room surprised Zhou Chao.

  He originally thought that the decoration style inside would be authentic and classical, but who knew it would be a modern and ancient style with a lot of modern electrical equipment, but it was not that abrupt.

   It gives people a very harmonious feeling. It seems that a lot of thought was spent on the decoration.

   After a brief turn around, the two walked towards other pavilions.

  A lot of pine, bamboo, and plum are planted between the pavilions, adding a bit of cultural connotation to the courtyard.

  Walking around, Zhou Chao and the others spent almost an hour, and Zhou Chao felt that one word was "comfortable".

   "Boss, why do I feel that this place is much better than the courtyard house?" Lin Wu said cautiously after sitting on a chair and looking around.

   "It's true that you should feel more comfortable here!" Zhou Chao didn't deny it either. After all, Gusu's gardens are world-famous.

  Although my own courtyard on the bank of the canal combines the styles of gardens and courtyard houses, it is still very different from the original version.

   "Boss, why don't we move here!" Lin Wu approached Zhou Chao courteously and said.

   Zhou Chao glanced at him, but he didn't know what he was thinking. After thinking about it carefully, Zhou Chao shook his head.

   "It's fine to move here. After all, it's too far away and it's not very convenient. It's good to come and live here once in a while!"

  The environment of Tongli, an ancient town in the south of the Yangtze River, is indeed quite quiet. It is not as bustling with traffic as in big cities, and there are only faint fireworks in the city.

   "Let's go, let's go out for a stroll. It's rare to come to one of the six ancient towns in the south of the Yangtze River. Wouldn't it be a loss not to visit!"

   After satisfying the initial novelty, Zhou Chao planned to go out for a stroll.

   Immediately, the two of them walked out of Huancui Villa and walked out along the stone road.

  Walking along the stone road for three to five minutes, Zhou Chao walked across five bridges, which made him understand what a small bridge and flowing water house is.

  Standing on the arch bridge, watching the awning boats rippling in the small river, Zhou Chao found that he was looking forward to such a life.

   The two walked around for half an hour, and finally stopped at a waterside restaurant.

   "I didn't expect that there are quite a lot of people here!" Lin Wu looked at the people coming and going on the other side, and was a little surprised.

   Zhou Chao, who was ordering, handed the menu back to the waiter, and said jokingly: "Lin Wu, I, the big boss, will have to do the ordering anytime!"

  Hearing this, Lin Wu panicked immediately, and quickly explained: "Boss, I'm afraid that my vision will not work. What if I step on a thunderstorm!"

   "Well, it's still my fault for saying that!" Zhou Chao said pretending to be helpless.

   "How is that possible, boss, it's all my fault, I must reflect on it!" Lin Wu quickly promised.

   Zhou Chao glanced at him angrily, and you are the only one still thinking about it? Think about it!

  The speed of serving food in the restaurant was quite fast, and several dishes were presented in front of the two of them soon.

  Tongli River is densely covered with branches, rich in river fresh and various aquatic crops, and the food culture is also very Jiangnan water town style, so Zhou Chao ordered a few famous water town dishes and special snacks.

  Three silk spring rolls, squid eel paste, malt flatbread, Tongli Zhuangyuan hoof and Taihu Sanbai!

  Looking at the delicacies on the table, Zhou Chao, who is a glutton, did not hesitate at all, and tasted them with chopsticks.

   Not to mention, it’s really delicious.

  Especially the white shrimp in Taihu Sanbai, there is still a faint sweet taste in his mouth after eating, which surprised Zhou Chao a little.

   "Waiter, what's the matter, didn't we come first, why did the food come after us!"

   "Sorry, your dishes will be served soon!" the waiter said flatly.

   "Don't worry, we are foreigners and we are easy to bully. We have been waiting for almost half an hour, and none of the dishes are served, and the next table has served several dishes."

   "Okay, let's wait a little longer, don't get angry with the waiter!"

  Hearing the voice from inside the restaurant, Zhou Chao frowned slightly, feeling that the voice was a bit familiar.

  Zhou Chao followed the prestige, and saw a fat man arguing with the waiter, and there were one big and one small standing beside the man.

   "Don't worry, your food will be served right away!" The waiter ran towards the back kitchen after speaking.

   "Why are you talking so loudly? Didn't you see so many people watching?" When the waiter left, the woman on the side complained softly.

   "I'm just annoyed. We've been here for so long, but why did the food come before us!"

   "Okay, okay, don't talk about these annoying things when you come out to play today, and let's go take a Wupao boat after dinner!"

   "Yeah!" The man nodded lightly.

   "Third brother!" At some point, Zhou Chao had already arrived behind the fat man.

  The man heard the voice behind him, stood up quickly and looked back, only to see a handsome boy staring at him.

   "Hello, who are you?" The fat man asked with some doubts.

   "Third brother, I'm Zhou Chao!" Zhou Chao also knows that he has changed a lot, and it's normal that he can't recognize himself, after all, the two haven't seen each other for many years.

  The man looked at Zhou Chao carefully, and said with some uncertainty: "Zhou Chao? You are my aunt's son Zhou Chao!"

  The fat man is Zhou Chao's old mother's family, that is, his third uncle's son Yang Yu, the reason why he should work, and his family have all moved to a prefecture-level city below Gusu.

   These were all told by his second uncle when he went to visit the New Year last year. After all, since his parents passed away, Zhou Chao disappeared.

   It's just that I didn't expect to meet here today, which is really a coincidence.

   "Third brother, long time no see!" Zhou Chao shouted with a smile.

   "Yeah, it's been about five or six years, I didn't expect you to be so handsome now, have you found a wife yet!"

  Yang Yu patted Zhou Chao's shoulder excitedly.

  Feeling the slightest pain from his shoulder, Zhou Chao was also a little helpless, who told him this was his brother.

  Zhou Chao looked at the big and small ones aside, and he already knew it in his heart, "Third brother, these are my sister-in-law and niece!"

   "That's right, this is your sister-in-law!" Yang Yu directly took his wife over and said solemnly.

   "Hello, sister-in-law!" Zhou Chao greeted with a smile.

   "Hello!" Maybe it's the first time we meet, and I'm a little embarrassed.

   "Tongtong, hurry up and say hello to uncle!" Yang Yu picked up his daughter who was sitting on the stool.

   "Uncle!" Tongtong called out a little shyly, and lay in Yang Yu's arms.

   Zhou Chao responded with a smile, and then said to Yang Yu: "Third brother, you haven't eaten yet, and I just started, let's eat together!"

  Yang Yu agreed without thinking too much, and then followed Zhou Chao outside with his wife and daughter.

   At this time, Lin Wu, who was sitting, watched the boss come out with three people, and stood up quickly, and was stopped by Zhou Chao's eyes just as he was about to say hello.

   "Who is this?" Yang Yu looked at Lin Wu curiously and asked.

   "Brother, this is a friend of mine, they are all from our own family, Lin Wu, go and add some dishes!"

   After speaking, he greeted Yang Yu and the others to sit down, while Lin Wu walked quickly into the restaurant.

   "Xiao Chao, why have you been there these past few years? Why is there no news at all!" Yang Yu asked questions as soon as he sat down.

   "I've stayed in Shanghai for the past few years. I went back last year during Chinese New Year, and I just learned from my second uncle that you all moved to Gusu!"

  Hearing this, Yang Yu glanced calmly at his happy daughter-in-law, "Because of some work reasons, we all moved here!"

  Third Brother Zhou Chao could see the expression in his eyes, and he probably understood what was going on in his heart, so he didn't continue to delve into this issue.

   Zhou Chao picked up another topic at random, "Aren't you busy with work recently?"

   "It's not very busy. Your sister-in-law and I set up a small factory to make molds. We need to find a lot of business by ourselves. The market is not good recently, so I will take your sister-in-law out to play and relax!"

  Yang Yu is also a little melancholy, the sound of the small workshop is not good now!

   "What are you doing now, kid!" Yang Yu asked curiously.

   "I am also similar. I have worked in Shanghai for so many years, and I also started a small company myself!"

   Zhou Chao didn't say it directly, mainly because he was afraid that the third brother would not be able to accept it for a while.

   "It seems that you are the most promising among our brothers!" Yang Yu looked at Zhou Chao with some relief.

   "It's okay, a little bit of luck!" After all, having a system is really lucky.

  Yang Yu didn't delve into it either. After all, he has been in business for so many years, and he also knows that some words come to the point, even if they are related to each other!

  Lin Wu's ability to handle affairs is quite fast. When he came out, he was accompanied by two waiters carrying dishes.

   Zhou Chao and the others chatted about the old days while eating.

  When he heard that Zhou Chao played by the pond when he was a child and rolled into the pond and almost drowned, Lin Wu on the side almost laughed out loud, but Zhou Chao gave him a stern look before he stopped.

   After dinner, Zhou Shao arranged for Lin Wu to settle the bill, while he and Yang Yu started hanging out.

  I still like my niece Zhou Chao who is almost five years old, although she is a bit mischievous.

   "Uncle, I want to eat candied haws!"

"purchase!"

   "Uncle, I want this!"

"purchase!"

   "Uncle, I want to play!"

"Play!"

   Soon, under Zhou Chao's sugar-coated shells, Tongtong got close to Zhou Chao, holding Zhou Chao's hand and looking around.

  Yang Yu and his wife, who were following the two of them, were a little surprised. They never thought that their relationship would be so close in less than half an hour.

   A group of people played until 5:30 in the afternoon before ending today's trip with some unfinished business.

   "Third brother, don't you go back today, stay at my place for one night, and go back tomorrow!"

  Yang Yu looked at the daughter-in-law next to him when he heard the words, and saw that she had no intention of objecting, so he nodded.

   "Okay, then I will trouble you tonight!"

   "Hey, our two brothers are not troublesome, let's go, let's go to eat first!"
