Chapter 418 Clue 1
Ye Binglan said: "In the past, there were at least seven or eight people who followed Dong Ke, but in the past or two years, there were fewer people. Apart from Jiang Sheng, there was only one chef and a maid who packed things, and there was no one else in this villa."
Zhang Haotian was always a little wary of Ke Yunlu. He heard that he only brought a bodyguard in such a remote place, and admired his boldness. You must know that no matter whether he is a gangster or not, as a rich man, it is inevitable that no one will covet. After all, in addition to the gangs, there are many lonely tourists in this world. It seems that he is very confident in Jiang Sheng.
After a while, I entered the hall and saw that the living room inside was not too big, and the decoration was extremely simple, so I could basically not see anything eye-catching.
At this moment, Zhang Haotian saw a person sitting on a single sofa facing the front door in the living room, with short hair, thin face, dark skin, wrinkles at the corners of his eyes, calm eyes, and wearing an old white casual shirt, just like an elderly fisherman who often goes out to sea to fish.
Although Ke Yunlu has no longer contacted the media over the years, Zhang Haotian has seen photos of him from previous years on the Internet, wearing a suit and ties, and is very charming, just like the old fisherman in front of him. However, Zhang Haotian could tell from his facial features that he was Ke Yunlu.
Seeing the two of you coming in, Ke Yunlu had already stood up, smiled and reached out to Zhang Haotian, and said intimately: "Haotian, I didn't expect that you, a storm, would come to see me, this old bone. It's really troublesome."
Before seeing Ke Yunlu, Zhang Haotian felt that he should be luxurious, noble, and arrogant, with a bit of arrogance. He never expected that this person would be so approachable and dressed simply, so that people could combine him with a model company that is the largest and famous internationally famous in the country, but such people are undoubtedly even more difficult to guard against.
Zhang Haotian felt a little nervous in his heart, but he smiled and reached out to hold it with him and said, "Old Ke, you are an old senior, and you are one of the best people in the S market shopping malls. I have been in S City for so long and have not visited you for a long time. Please forgive me."
At this moment, Ye Binglan handed the bag in his hand to Ke Yunlu and said, "Dong Ke, Haotian heard from me that you like to drink tea from the farmers in Shizishan, Yunnan. It is especially worth buying it, so you can collect it first."
Ke Yunlu took the tea and looked at Zhang Haotian with a smile and said, "You can buy tea anywhere, why bother so much? Haotian, thank you."
Of course, Zhang Haotian would not say that it was bought by Ye Binglan, but just smiled and neither admitted nor denied it.
Ke Yunlu handed the paper bag containing tea to Jiang Sheng, who was beside him, and then greeted: "It's not too late now, I have someone to prepare dinner, let's go."
As he said that, he walked into a door on the right side of the hall, and Zhang Haotian and Ye Binglan followed him.
When I entered the door, I saw that there was a dining room inside. Two plates of cold dishes were already placed on a round table in the dining room, and a middle-aged maid was standing by the table.
Ke Yunlu ordered the middle-aged maid to call the kitchen to serve hot dishes, and then asked Zhang Haotian and Ye Binglan to sit down with him.
Not long after, the dishes were served one after another. Apart from the two cold dishes just now, there were only three hot dishes and one soup. The only meat dish was the most common fried pork with bitter melon. The lettuce soup was green, not even a bit of oil star, and there were some insect eyes in the leaves.
Ke Yunlu pointed at the dishes with chopsticks: "Haotian, try it. All the dishes here are grown by myself, without any fertilizers or pesticides. They are absolutely green and environmentally friendly, very fragrant, and they can't be eaten outside."
Zhang Haotian responded and started eating with the vegetables. His usual eating habits are mainly meat food. However, after tasting the dishes on the table, he had to admit that although these dishes didn't look very good, there was a kind of original aroma of vegetables that could not be eaten outside.
Ye Binglan smiled and said, "Dong Ke, the food you have here is very environmentally friendly to women. Don't worry about gaining weight. It seems that I will come to you for free when I have nothing to do."
Ke Yunlu said kindly: "Of course there is no problem. I can't finish the vegetables I grow here. Xiaolan, you and I are not outsiders, so you don't have to be polite. As long as I'm in S City, there is absolutely no problem for you to come and have a meal."
Ye Binglan faced him with a little girl feeling, and stuck out his tongue and said, "It's just that you're too far away. I'm from where I work. It will take forty minutes without traffic jams. It's so troublesome."
Ke Yunlu said, "Then I'll ask someone to send you the food. Just let the kitchen make it separately. There is no special skill, just add less oil and salt."
Ye Binglan listened, and was not polite, and thanked him quickly.
During the meal, the three of them were just chatting, without mentioning the friction caused by Qi Jingru when she participated in the New Silk Road Model TV Grand Prix. Ke Yunlu even chatted and laughed, and even taught the two the knowledge of growing vegetables, without saying a word about work.
Half an hour later, the dinner ended. Ke Yunlu and the two of them sat down in the living room and asked the maid to make tea. He still did not mention official business, but only talked about some interesting things around the world. There are many things Zhang Haotian had never heard of. I really have to admire his knowledge.
Seeing that time was getting late, Zhang Haotian was thinking about how to mention the third gang leader, but saw Ke Yunlu looking at him and said, "Haotian, do you like night fishing at sea?"
Zhang Haotian shook his head and said, "I don't fish very much, and I haven't gone to the sea to catch fish."
Ke Yunlu smiled slightly and said, "The weather is good tonight, it is very suitable for fishing. Are you interested in accompanying me?"
Zhang Haotian didn't believe that Ke Yunlu was so calm and didn't want to talk to him. He listened to his suggestion and nodded and said, "Okay, I always like to learn things I don't know. Please give me more advice."
Ye Binglan, who was sitting next to Zhang Haotian, immediately said: "I want to go too, don't even think about leaving me here, it's so boring."
Ke Yunlu laughed and said, "Take it, of course I have to take you there, but your task is not to fish, but to be a chef."
Ye Binglan hurriedly said, "I don't know how to be a chef."
Ke Yunluodao: "Being this chef is very simple. Just grill the fish we fish on a barbecue grill, keeping the original flavor without adding any ingredients."
Ye Binglan heard that he was going to barbecue and said happily: "Okay, there is no problem with handing over this task to me."
Ke Yunlu waved his hand and signaled the two to follow, then stood up and headed out.
At this moment, Jiang Sheng was about to follow, Ke Yunlu glanced at Zhang Haotian, smiled slightly and said, "Asheng, you are resting at home. Haotian's skills are no worse than you. I don't need you this time."
Jiang Sheng looked at Zhang Haotian's body and demeanor, and indeed stopped and stopped following him.
A half-new and old off-road vehicle was parked in the yard. Ke Yunlu went up and sat in the cab first. When Zhang Haotian and Ye Binglan got in and closed the door, they started the car and drove out of the iron door.
After leaving the door, I continued walking along the seawall. After twenty minutes, I arrived at a bank that extended into the sea, but saw a single-story small sailing fishing boat parked outside.
He stopped the car and took Zhang Haotian and Ye Binglan to the deck of the fishing boat, untied the cable, Ke Yunlu walked into the cabin, took out the key to start, and quickly turned the direction towards the depths of the sea.
The deck of the fishing boat is about fifteen or sixteen square meters. Zhang Haotian and Ye Binglan are of course very wide when standing on it. Facing the vast sea and facing the sea breeze, the two couldn't help but sit at the bow of the boat and enjoy the sea view.
At this moment, a golden full moon hung in the ink-blue sky, and the moonlight poured on the sea like flowing water. The sea water was filled with thousands of light waves, just like tens of thousands of fish jumping in the sea water, with scales shining, and the water surface collided with the bottom of the boat, making a gentle sound, like a lover's call.
Ye Binglan looked at the full moon on his head and glanced at Zhang Haotian, who was sitting next to him with starry eyes and sword noses. The outlines were clear. The water waves were softly swept in his eyes, and he wanted to snuggle over, but he soon thought of Ke Yunlu, who was driving a fishing boat behind him. He could only sigh quietly, but he still moved his body, blocking the vision behind him, and reached out to hold Zhang Haotian quietly. Zhang Haotian held her hand tightly, conveying the feelings in his heart. Ye Binglan immediately felt it, and smiled sweetly at him with his head, curling his cherry lips slightly, and his eyebrows were affectionate, like a girl in love.
After about half an hour, they felt the engine of the fishing boat stop. The two of them knew that Ke Yunlu was coming out, so they quickly let go of their hands and stood up.
@At this time, Ke Yunlu really came behind the two of them, holding two fishing rods in one hand and a small iron bucket in the other.
Zhang Haotian went to take the fishing rod and saw that the rod was not long, only about two meters long. However, the rod was sharp and the rod was hard, and the pendant was 100 grams. However, although the fishing line was very thick, it was not careful when it drooped into the sea. He said, "Old Ke, how did you look at the floating rod this night and know that the fish was hooked."
Ke Yunlu was wearing a loose canvas vest full of pockets. He smiled slightly, took out a few things like small glow sticks from the vest, and tied them to his fishing line.
Zhang Haotian understood that the glow stick was a float, and the small iron bucket must be bait. He bent down and reached out to catch it, but he saw a small shrimp, which was hanging on the hook, walked to one side of the deck, and threw the line out.
Ke Yunlu did not rush to get down, but walked into the cabin again, moved an electronic barbecue grill out, placed it in the middle of the deck and said: "Xiao Lan, I'll catch fish later. You can go to the freshwater sink in the cabin to wash it and pick it up and bake it. The operation method is the same as that of a microwave."
Ye Binglan agreed, but walked to Zhang Haotian and said, "Haotian, come on, let's see who will catch more."
Ke Yunlu also picked up the fishing rod and hung the bait, stood not far from Zhang Haotian and threw it down, but he didn't say a word, just silently staring at the faint light emitted by the glow stick on the sea surface.
After a while, Zhang Haotian's glow stick began to sink, but he did not pull the rod immediately, but waited for a while before he pulled it up suddenly. However, the fish hook was empty and there was nothing, and the hanging shrimp had been eaten.
Ke Yunlu looked at it and smiled slightly, "Fishing in the sea is different from land. The fish in the sea are bigger and more cunning. They usually take them away in one go at a time and will not give you a second chance. Therefore, if you want to catch fish, the key is to be fast and ruthless. When it appears and eats bait, it is necessary to pull the rod immediately. There is no need to make fish. You have to pull the fish up all the way by pulling it hard, so the chance of catching fish is much greater."
As he was talking, his hand moved upwards quickly, and he saw a black fish of three or four kilograms hanging from the hook, shaking its tail constantly, but no matter how it swung, it could no longer break free.
Ke Yunlu took the fish off and glanced at it and said, "It's a black thorn bream, which tastes good, but you have to cut open and clean the internal organs before you can eat it. Xiaolan, do you know how to cut the fish?"
When Ye Binglan saw that he was fishing, he happily took it and said, "I know, I am not a natural daughter. My father loves to bet and never does housework. When I was a child, I often helped my mother."
Ke Yunlu nodded and said, "Okay, when you go into the cabin, there will be a knife outside the Tamsui Pool. Be careful and don't cut your hands."
Ye Binglan agreed and hurried into the cabin.
Zhang Haotian listened to his careless words just now, as if he was guiding him how to catch fish in sea fish, but he seemed to have something else to say and was thinking secretly.
Ke Yunlu hung up the bait and threw the fish hook into the sea, staring at the float, but said in a deep voice: "Haotian, Xiaolan is a good woman, and also a poor woman. You must cherish her well."
Although Zhang Haotian and Ye Binglan deliberately kept a distance, he understood that Ye Binglan's eyes and words would inadvertently reveal their feelings for him, and it was already very clear that she helped her work hard to become an "Alice model agency". He Dasheng doubted his relationship with Ye Binglan, so how could Ke Yunlu not know? But even if everyone knows it, it doesn't matter. It is really normal for a gangster boss, a new businessman, to have an ambiguous relationship with a widow without marriage constraints.
He smiled and said, "Alan is very pitiful, but when she is the most pitiful, it's a pity that you didn't help her."
Ke Yunlu certainly understood what he meant by "the most pitiful time", and sighed and said, "Yes, Xiaolan's father owed a huge gambling debt to borrow money. At that time, my business was not as big as it is now, and the cash in hand was very short of it. Moreover, He Dacheng's father had some friendship with me. I think this child likes Xiaolan very much and is willing to pay more than 100 million gambling debts for her, so he didn't care about this. He thought Xiaolan could enjoy the happiness from now on when he married into a wealthy family, but he didn't expect that their relationship after marriage would be so bad. He Dacheng would take Xiaolan as a prisoner, and even my invitation was often not worthy of face. Fortunately, he died unexpectedly, and Xiaolan finally got freedom and could pursue his own happiness."
When Zhang Haotian heard him say "accidental death", his tone became significantly worse. He knew that Ke Yunlu knew this and smiled slightly and said, "Alan is indeed much happier now than in the past. I just hope she will be happier in the future."
Ke Yunlu turned his head and stared at him and said, "Whether Xiaolan is happy in the future depends on you. Although she is older than you, she is gentle and sensible, and she is very compatible with you in appearance. I really hope she will have a good ending. Unfortunately, you are really a romantic figure. There are two beautiful women in C City. Qi Jingru has a good relationship with you. Although Sha'er always says that you are kind to her and only have brothers and sisters with her, how can you hide these things from me? Her feelings for you are not as simple as brothers and sisters. Haotian, you are too flirting with women. For you, it is an advantage and a disadvantage. If you don't handle it well, extreme love will turn into extreme hatred and bring you big trouble. This is my advice to you."
Zhang Haotian looked at him, a smile flashed across his lips, and said, "Old Ke, I didn't expect you to care so much about your younger generation."
Ke Yunlu turned his head and continued to look at the floats on the sea and said, "You are so strong that you can't understand something. This time I come to see me, the old man, I'm afraid I'll just forget it."
Seeing that he gradually got to the point, Zhang Haotian stopped turning around and said directly: "Yes, Mr. Ke is knowledgeable and well-informed. I want to ask you about someone's whereabouts."
Ke Yunlu said lightly: "The third leader of the Sanlian Gang, right?"
When Zhang Haotian heard his words say, he was secretly shocked and said, "Old Ke is indeed a magic trick, you have guessed it."
Ke Yunlu smiled and said, "Actually, this is not difficult. Although your power is getting bigger and bigger now, and the Sanlian Gang has also suffered heavy damage from Pang Tongxun before his death. However, the leader of the Third Gang is mysterious and uses any means to do things. It is still the biggest problem of your confidant. If you want to ask me about someone, who will be if you are not this person? If I am young for more than 20 years, I am afraid you will also doubt me."
After hearing his logical reasoning, Zhang Haotian was even more impressed and said, "Since you know, you know, but I wonder if you can give me some advice?"
Ke Yunlu did not answer immediately, but pointed to the sea and said, "You can catch a fish as I teach you first. Xiaolan's place is not enough to eat."
Zhang Haotian looked back and saw Ye Binglan walking out with the cut-out black thorn, wearing an iron fork, flipping on the barbecue grill, and then shouting: "Haotian, Dong Ke, come on, there are too few fish."
Without saying anything, Zhang Haotian understood that urging was useless. He did not rush to ask questions, but agreed and catching fish seriously. Not long after, when he saw the float sinking, he did not wait any longer this time. He immediately raised his hand and immediately saw a black snake-like thing hanging on the fish hook, which turned out to be a moray eel.
Seeing that Zhang Haotian finally had a harvest, Ye Binglan came over with a cheer, but when he saw the three or four-foot-long moray eel, he wrinkled and said, "This thing is like a snake. I'm a little scared and dare not dissect and wash it."
Ke Yunlu asked Zhang Haotian to put the moray eel into the small iron bucket, and then said, "Xiao Lan, what do you like to eat?"
Ye Binglan immediately said: "Squid, squid is the most delicious to make barbecue, but the sea is so big, no one can be sure if they can catch it tonight."
Ke Yunlu smiled slightly, but put down the fishing rod and walked into the cabin.
After a while, the white light in front of Zhang Haotian's eyes flashed, and all the fish lamps on both sides of the fishing boat were turned on. Ke Yunlu quickly walked out, took two large nets made of long bamboo handles in his hand, handed them to him, and then walked to the side of the boat and observed downwards.
Zhang Haotian knew that there must be a reason for him to do this, so he took the big copy net and waited quietly. Since the fish lamp was all on, the water surface under the side of the boat could be clearly seen.
After about ten minutes, there was a situation on the water surface, with fine waves storming, and something obviously rushing downwards.
Ke Yunlu didn't say anything, put the big copy net in his hand into the water. After picturing it quickly, he saw some soft things appearing inside, which were more than a dozen small squids.
Ke Yunlu took the squid out of the net and asked Ye Binglan to get a large iron basin and put some sea water in it. The water immediately turned black, but the squid was spraying juice.
Seeing this situation, without Ke Yunlu's explanation, Zhang Haotian immediately understood that the squid must have a strong light-taminating nature. As soon as the fish lamps on both sides were turned on, countless squids kept swam rapidly towards the side of the shiny boat.
So he took the big net in his hand into the water, and indeed he caught more than a dozen squids. These squids were not big, but they were used for barbecue and tasted the most delicious.
Take turns picking up the boats on both sides, and soon filled a full pot of small squid. Ye Binglan couldn't lift it, so Zhang Haotian helped her move to the Danshui Pool in the cabin to clean it.
Chapter completed!
