Mr. Zhou is building a snowman with his daughter in the yard - it is said that Zhou Juli wants to build a snowman, but in fact it is just a cover. In essence, he wants to play in the snow. After all, as a southerner who was born in Zhejiang and studied in Guangzhou, I have never seen him like this.
There is heavy snow, not to mention the amount of goose feathers that can make a snowman.
I heard from a servant that he saw Mr. Wang coming to pay New Year greetings and he was already at the door. He hurriedly greeted him and went out to greet him.
"Hey, Mr. Wang, why are you here?" He bowed to New Year's greetings and invited him in.
"I'm passing by and wish Mr. Zhou a happy new year." Wang Yehao came in and saw that the courtyard was well organized and there were many flowers, trees and devices that he had not seen before. It seemed that this Hearthstone Immortal was very lively.
Interesting - this is easy to handle.
"This is Curie, look at this baby, she is really cute." Wang Yehao leaned down kindly and pinched Zhou Juli's face which was red from the cold. The girl hid behind Mr. Zhou and looked at him curiously with her big eyes.
the other party.
"Why are you still afraid of giving birth? This is Uncle Wang." Mr. Zhou picked up his daughter, pinched her nose affectionately, and then greeted the visitor, "Don't stand at the door, come in quickly!"
Mr. Zhou handed his daughter over to his maid, and then led Wang Yehao to the study room across the courtyard. Obviously, Mr. Zhou was not interested in studying ancient books, so rather than a study room, it would be more appropriate to call it a chess and card room and laboratory.
He opened up all three rooms of the study and filled it with a lot of brand new furniture - the original tables and chairs were not in line with Mr. Zhou's aesthetic taste and use, so he specially asked a carpenter to customize the whole thing. The carpenter was full of misunderstandings about Mr. Zhou.
The guidance of the significance of the times was quite resistant, and he protested several times. This also made Mr. Zhou realize a profound truth: the stories that just copying a modern design can lead the fashion trend in the time-travel industry and make a lot of money are all lies.
Woolen cloth!
Mr. Wang, who is obviously better educated than a carpenter, gave a fair and conservative evaluation of Mr. Zhou's design: "Sir, the furnishings in this study are quite unique."
"Oh, this is the minimalist route." Mr. Zhou moved a chair and introduced it, "Sir, please see, this chair only has four wooden strips and two boards. It is easy to assemble and has a novel style. There is also a lazy sofa.
It’s buckwheat hulls. Although it doesn’t look very good, it’s quite comfortable to sit on. Would you like to try it, adults?”
Wang Yehao looked at the several cotton bags on the ground and couldn't accept it. Although he was very contemptuous in his heart, he was still very polite: "Haha, Mr. Zhou's furnishings are primitive and elegant, ingenious and not workmanlike. It seems to be a legacy of the Wei and Jin Dynasties."
"It's not the Wei and Jin style, it's the Nordic style... Well, this style is popular where I studied art." Mr. Zhou was lying comfortably on a lazy sofa. Wang Yehao struggled for a long time, still not knowing how to lower his buttocks. Fortunately, Zhou Lezhi was in the study
I was doing experiments inside, so I quickly brought over an armchair.
At this moment, Zhou Lezhi was doing experiments in his study - all the test equipment he had saved with his husband. Some of them were drawn by his husband and handed over to the carpenter, and some were purchased by Zhou Lezhi from various market shops according to his teacher's requirements. A combination of simple things.
It became a set of experimental equipment.
Seeing Mr. Wang and his husband sitting down, Zhou Lezhi was about to leave, but his husband said: "No need, you are my student, you can just listen on the side." After that, he asked again: "Is he in the way?"
"It doesn't matter," Wang Yehao smiled, "Who doesn't have a few confidants! He is Mr.'s disciple, so students can naturally trust him."
Zhou Lezhi quickly thanked him and went to the door to take the tea snacks from the servant and put them on the table. At the beginning of the new year, the "Zhou Mansion" prepared several kinds of southern tea snacks according to his husband's instructions, and specially prepared Yuanbao tea.
Seeing this Yuanbao Tea, Wang Yehao thought about the mysterious Hearthstone Immortal and he could be considered a fellow countryman. Unfortunately, after spying on him in every possible way, he still doesn't know his true face. Although he has helped a lot, he still cannot
There is a feeling of thorns in the back.
He took a sip of tea, picked up an olive and put it in his mouth.
"It has been three years since I met my husband in Guangli, and I rarely hear him talk about his previous studies."
Zhou Lezhi stood behind his husband and couldn't see his expression, but from the way he started to tilt his head and habitually touched his eyebrows, he knew that his husband was quite embarrassed about this topic: "This, there is a confidentiality agreement, you can't mess around outside.
He said he would be punished by God."
"The secrets of heaven are mysterious and the Taoism is so subtle. I never thought that someone with such magical powers as Mr. must abide by strict rules and regulations. It must be extremely difficult to learn the art." Wang Yehao sipped his tea and joked with a smile.
The husband also took the opportunity to complain: "It's not only difficult, it's simply inhumane. It's a long way to go... I can't get out of SCI... If I hadn't refined the Universe Mirror, I don't know how many years I would have to work." After saying this, his face was wet.
With a painful expression on his face, he thought that he would not be able to look back on this period of cultivation life.
"Speaking of which, sir, the Universe Mirror has not been found yet. I wonder if there are any clues recently?"
"Oh, it's hard to find. I don't know where the Australians are hiding." Mr. Zhou sighed, looking very helpless.
"Sir, please take a look." Wang Yehao motioned to Liu Zhao to present several items from Zizhenzhai.
Mr. Zhou took it and looked at it for a few times, and his expression changed. After playing with it repeatedly, he asked: "Is this from Guangzhou?"
"Yes, but I didn't get it from Gao Zhan. I bought it from a shop called Zizhenzhai." Wang Yehao looked at his face and said, "The shop owner's name is Guo Yi. Do you recognize him sir?"
"So the Australians are back again?! They even opened a store!" Mr. Zhou's expression became very excited.
"Nine times out of ten, that's the case."
"Yes, yes, this is Australian stuff!" Mr. Zhou suddenly stood up and started wandering around in the study, "I should have thought of it, I should have thought of it a long time ago!"
Wang Yehao thought he was right, he really knew the details of the Australians!
"Do you know where this Guo Yi came from?" Mr. Zhou suddenly stopped and asked.
"Even though I'm a native of Guangzhou, I can speak plain English. But..." Wang Yehao smiled meaningfully.
Mr. Zhou was fixed there, his mind seemed to be filled with thoughts. After a long time, he said:
"I want to go to Guangzhou to check it out."
"Sir, there is no need to rush." Wang Yehao said, "It's a long way from the capital to Guangzhou, and there are many inconveniences. I have some manpower from the students, who may be able to help you."
Mr. Zhou hesitated for a moment and felt that although it was risky, it was still a solution: "It would be great if you are willing to help me find it, but there is one thing. If you find a clue, don't act rashly. You must wait for me to collect it."
"
"Oh? I don't know what to say?"
Mr. Zhou began to touch his eyebrows habitually again: "Well, this, this, specifically this treasure, it is relatively precious and difficult to control. If it is controlled well, it will be easy to carry a mountain of gold and silver; if it is controlled,
Not good, um, um." He suddenly brightened up, "Master Bang, remember the explosion three years ago, it was even more powerful than that!"
It's a pity that the danger of the explosion did not scare Wang Yehao. He seemed to have suddenly become interested, and asked with bright eyes: "Sir, did you just say that this thing can also transport mountains of gold and silver?" Wang Yehao
"I'm not bragging to you!" Seeing that the other party was very interested, Mr. Zhou took advantage of the situation and started to draw a pie. "There is nothing you can't think of, and there is nothing I can't move. Pearls, emeralds, glazed agates, those are all trinkets.
Already."
"I never thought there would be such a treasure in the world." Wang Yehao couldn't help stroking his beard and sighing after listening to Mr. Zhou's bragging, "If there is a way to make money, the imperial treasury can be filled, and the soldiers can be fed and paid in full. In this way, there is no need to worry about keeping slaves alive.
.”
"It was easy to destroy the gang of slave-building cavalry. We got a few machine guns and they were all over the place." Mr. Zhou said more and more enthusiastically, "This machine gun is a continuous fire blunderbuss. It has a range of four or five miles, and the cavalry cannot get close at all."
"
Wang Yehao listened to Mr. Zhou's nonsense with considerable restraint for half an hour before he stood up and left. Before leaving, he left these "Australian treasures" at Mr. Zhou's request, supposedly for "study and study".
Liu Zhao saw off the guests outside the door on behalf of his master and said in a low voice: "Sir, what do you think of what Mr. Zhou said today?"
"It's hard to tell the truth from the false..." Wang Yehao shook his head, "There may be lies, but I feel that this universe mirror is indeed such a thing."
"I feel that if this Universe Mirror is really so magical, then it would make sense."
"Oh? How to put it?"
Liu Zhao took Wang Yehao aside and whispered: "I wonder if the Qiankun Mirror really fell into the hands of the Australians. By chance, I figured out some driving methods, so I came up with these glazed treasures."
Wang Yehao's eyes lit up, and he suddenly felt that the whole thing was connected together. The statement that a few dozen Lingao Township warriors could capture the heads of hundreds of pirates was simply ridiculous. Besides, Lingao County is a poor and remote country.
, there is almost no oil and water, there is no need for Liu Laoxiang to send more than a thousand thugs to plunder. The only common sense explanation is that the Australians are entrenched in Lingao, setting up altars for worship, and using the mirror of the universe to make glassware. This is worthless and profitable.
The business made Liu Laoxiang jealous and wanted to take it for himself. The pirates fought with each other and both sides suffered losses. Lingao County took advantage of the situation and collected hundreds of heads and reported them to the police. Since the glassware is still for sale, it is
The Australians have not yet collapsed and are still standing high. From this point of view, Guo Yi is not without foundation. In addition to holding high, he at least has the support of a large group of pirates behind him.
Thinking of this, Wang Yehao couldn't help but feel a little excited. Wouldn't it be wonderful if he could keep such a treasure for his own use? After thinking for a moment, Wang Yehao recovered his mind and asked: "The day before yesterday, I asked you to carefully check that Guo Yi and Eunuch Yang.
How was the relationship, and what was the result?"
"The younger one has found out: Zizhenzhai did not surrender to Eunuch Yang, he only relied on his promotion to gain a foothold in Guangzhou."
"Haha, since he has no backer, I will find one for him." Wang Yehao smiled meaningfully, "I wonder if that Miss Pei will suit Tian Guozhang's taste."
