Chapter 22 Zhou Qing’s Test
“No. 118, Linjiang Road…”
Qin Lang held the egg treasure in his arms and searched for it according to the address of the food recommender found on the official website of the Yuling Chef Association.
Finally, he stopped in front of a single-family villa with a large garden.
As expected, there are only eleven first-class food recommenders in the entire Dongxia City. They are really rich.
When will I and Dan Bao be able to live in such a villa?
After sighing, Qin Lang stepped forward and pressed the electric bell on the iron gate.
"Ding dong~"
After the doorbell rang, a figure quickly walked out of the villa and walked quickly towards this side.
The next moment they pushed open the iron gate, both of them were stunned.
"Judge Zhou Yun?" Qin Lang blinked, not expecting to see the judge who presided over his own eating competition here yesterday.
"It's you." Zhou Yun also recognized this young man he had just met yesterday. His expression was no longer as serious as when he was fighting, and looked gentler. "Qin Lang, why are you here?"
"I'm here to visit Mr. Zhou Qing." Qin Lang said politely, then blinked.
Zhou Yun, Zhou Qing…
Both of them have the surname Zhou...
"So you are here to see my father, come in." Zhou Yun's words confirmed Qin Lang's guess, and he welcomed Qin Lang in, "Is it for the recommender badge?"
"My father is fishing in the backyard right now. You sit in the living room for a while while I go find him."
"Can you fish in the backyard?" Qin Lang was stunned.
What family conditions?
"There is a small tributary of the Xiayun River that happens to pass through my backyard." Zhou Yun introduced with a smile, "My father loves fishing. When he first learned that there was such a villa where you could fish in the backyard, he spent his life savings to buy it. .”
Qin Lang nodded understandingly.
Tianhua Prefecture has a mountain and two rivers. The mountain is named Bailu. Two rivers go around the two sides of the mountain, one is Xiayun and the other is Dulu.
Xiayun River almost divides Tianhua Prefecture into two and runs through three cities, one of which is Dongxia City.
Watching Zhou Yun leave, Qin Lang took a sip of tea, picked up the snacks on the table, fed Dan Bao some, and waited patiently.
After a while, Zhou Yun returned to the living room.
But at this moment, his expression was a bit strange, "Can you fish?"
"Ah?" Qin Lang blinked, "You know a little bit."
Learning to fish can better understand the habits of fish, and it will be helpful for cooking fish, so Qin Lang has also learned about it. Although he is not proficient, he still knows how to do it.
"That's good." Zhou Yun smiled, "My father asked you to fish with him."
There was something strange in his heart.
My father didn't treat Yu Lingchu like this in the past. Why has it changed today?
"Okay." Qin Lang didn't mind, just spread his hands, "But I don't have fishing gear."
"There is a spare pair of fishing gear in the warehouse, let me help you get it." Zhou Yun quickly took out the spare fishing gear and handed it to Qin Lang, "Let's go, I'll take you to the backyard."
Passing through the carefully trimmed flowers and plants in the backyard, Qin Lang quickly saw the tributary flowing through the backyard.
It is about five meters wide, with crystal clear bottom and a lot of fish swimming in the water.
There is a big stone by the stream. A pale-faced old man with white hair is sitting on the stone casually wearing a cloth coat, motionless with fishing tackle in hand.
It was Zhou Qing, the recommender that Qin Lang wanted to visit.
Next to the big rock where Zhou Qing was, there was a small bench, which seemed to be prepared for Qin Lang.
"I will send you here." Zhou Yun lowered his voice and left quietly.
Qin Lang understood and made a "shush" gesture to Dan Bao, then slowly stepped forward and sat on the small bench.
Dan Bao looked around curiously, and then watched Qin Lang hook up the bait, choose a position, and throw the hook.
Zhou Qing on the side seemed to be secretly paying attention to Qin Lang's movements. Seeing that Qin Lang was doing well, a smile appeared on his face.
The two began to wait quietly.
Soon, Qin Lang's fish float began to tremble.
A fish is biting.
After feeling the strength of the fish pulling on the line, Qin Lang quickly raised the fishing rod. With the ripples on the water surface, a small crucian carp twisted its body and struggled hard.
"Gududu!"
Dan Bao's eyes lit up and he cheered quietly, happy that Qin Lang caught the fish.
Qin Lang took the fish off the hook, looked at it twice and then returned it to the water.
"Why are you sending it back?" Zhou Qing on the side suddenly said.
"The fish is too small, it's better to put it back and raise it again." Qin Lang told the truth.
Seemingly satisfied with this answer, Zhou Qing smiled even more on his face.
Soon, his fish bobber also started to move.
A bass weighing about two pounds.
Putting the fish into the fish bucket, Zhou Qing looked at Qin Lang and suddenly said, "Yesterday you made a dish with oxtail in the food bucket?"
"Yes." Qin Lang was not surprised when he guessed that it was Zhou Yun who said it.
"I thought you were only good at the steamed seabass, but it seems that's not the case." Zhou Qing looked at the stream in front of him, "There are more than a dozen edible fish species here, including fish species that are native to the Xiayun River. There are also fish that I put in to raise here.”
"Catch a fish and use the fish you caught to make a dish that satisfies me." Zhou Qing looked at Qin Lang, "If you can do it, I will award you the Food Recommender Badge, how about it?"
Qin Lang carefully looked at the fish in the stream, then nodded, "Okay."
There are no very rare fish here, they are all common edible fish species.
This challenge is not difficult.
Qin Lang hung the bait again, and this time Qin Lang was a little more serious than before.
He picked a suitable area, swung the fish hook in with a beautiful hook, and then began to wait patiently.
Zhou Qing did not leave immediately. He just crossed his arms and looked at Qin Lang with interest.
About twenty minutes later, Qin Lang's fish bobber moved again.
Feeling the stronger tugging force coming from the fishing rod than last time, he felt slightly certain in his heart.
This time it shouldn't be a small fish.
After letting the fish out for a while, Qin Lang quickly reeled in the line.
Soon a mandarin fish weighing about three kilograms struggled to leave the water.
Mandarin fish? !
Qin Lang blinked.
"I only have a few mandarin fish in the water, and you actually caught one." Zhou Qing on the side smiled, "Put in a few carnivorous fish, and the other fish will be more active and the meat will be better."
Catfish effect?
Qin Lang nodded in understanding, "Let's use this mandarin fish for cooking."
"The meat of carnivorous fish will be more delicious. I'm looking forward to it." Zhou Qing nodded slightly. After Qin Lang put the mandarin fish into the fish bucket, he took out a handful of bait and threw it into the water, attracting countless swimming fish to compete for food.
"Let's go to the kitchen."
The kitchen of Zhou Qing's family is naturally very complete with kitchen utensils, and there is also a special food storage warehouse, which contains a variety of common food ingredients.
"If there is anything else you need in terms of food ingredients, you can ask the food market to deliver them now." Zhou Qing asked.
"No, it's already complete." Qin Lang nodded with satisfaction.
After Zhou Qing heard this, he turned around and walked out of the kitchen.
"Then it's up to you."
