Treasure well

Chapter 308 Chinese Culture is Broad and Profound
Smith was not in a hurry to discuss business with Chu Yunqiu, but followed Chu Yunqiu around the Chu family village.

Although Smith is not a Chinese expert, he likes Chinese history very much. He also likes Chinese utensils, such as jade, porcelain, etc.

Chu Yunqiu did not expect that Smith would be interested in the Chu family village, and he was happy to act as a tour guide.

Smith was accompanied by Chu Yunqiu and Lu Zhiqing, and the rest went to other places for activities.

Smith is a person who likes to be quiet, so he didn't bring too many people with him during this visit. A secretary, a driver, and two bodyguards were the only four people, and he didn't even bring an interpreter.

As for the Chu family village, only Chu Yunqiu and Lu Zhiqing were proficient in English, and the others couldn't get in the way, so they didn't keep up.

Smith is not too old, just in his early forties, when he is full of energy.

Seeing the clear lake water in front of him and the fish, shrimp, turtles and crabs swimming in it, Smith couldn't help asking Chu Yunqiu.

"Mr. Chu, with such clear lake water, there should be a lot of fish and shrimp in the water?"Smith looked at the fish, shrimps, turtles and crabs constantly churning in the water, his eyes lit up, he needed all these things.

And he saw that on both sides of the lake, there were many old men and tourists fishing, sitting on a small horse, fishing leisurely there.

"Of course, but this is not a lake, but a water bay. Our Chu family village named it Yueming Bay. It is said that on the night of the full moon in ancient times, the whole water bay would be generously bright, like a god descending. The villagers all said that there are gods living in the water bay, so they named it Yueming Bay," Chu Yunqiu introduced to Smith.

"Oh, myths, I like Chinese myths, especially the stories of Pangu creating the world and Houyi shooting the sun, like the superhero in our movie, who saved the whole world by himself," Smith said exaggeratedly.

"Well, Chinese culture is broad, profound and has a long history." Chu Yunqiu nodded in agreement.

"Wow, look, what a big, fat carp." At this moment, Smith, who was observing on the shore of Yueming Bay, suddenly saw an old man fishing for a fat carp. He was immediately excited and pointed at the direction, looked at Chu Yunqiu very excitedly.

"Come on, let's go up and have a look." Chu Yunqiu smiled, and together with Lu Zhiqing, he brought Mr. Smith to the fishermen.

"Second Grandpa, the harvest is good." Chu Yunqiu greeted the old man.

The old man was of the same generation as Grandpa Chu. Although he was younger than Grandpa Chu, he was actually Chu Yunqiu's grandfather.

"It's Yunqiu." The second grandfather looked up at Chu Yunqiu with a smile on his face. "Today's harvest is not bad. I have already caught five or six fish. I plan to catch nine fish and then I will buy them on the street." , Second Grandpa smiled all over his face.

In the past, he never thought that fish would make money, but now it is different. He fishes in the morning, and then buys it on the street in the afternoon. Some tourists who come to Chujiazhai will drop him every time. The fish is bought clean, so that his pockets are bulging every time.

Now, his little great-grandsons like to go to his place, because he has prepared a lot of delicious food, so that he can enjoy a while of family happiness in his old age.

He understood that all of this was brought about by the young man in front of him.

Looking at Chu Yunqiu in front of him, the second grandfather couldn't help but sigh, thinking that the little kid who was walking around in his crotch pants back then has grown up so much, and he has become a grandfather.

Second Grandfather looked at the two people behind Chu Yunqiu. He didn't know Smith, but he knew Lu Zhiqing.

Lu Zhiqing acted as an interpreter at the side, translating to Smith what Second Grandpa had just said.

"I said you kid, you are so old, you are not married yet, look at me, how old is your grandpa, and your great-grandson is in your arms, why are you not in a hurry, I can tell you, your grandpa is not young , I won’t be able to live for a few more days,” Second Grandpa said with a serious expression on his face.

"Oh, I'll go." Chu Yunqiu is speechless. If someone dares to say that about his grandfather, he will definitely have nothing to do with him, but the other party is different. He has played with Grandpa Chu since he was a child. Junior, what the other party can say, you can't say.

"Well, let's work hard," Chu Yunqiu nodded awkwardly.

Lu Zhiqing's cheeks were flushed, she didn't know how to translate, so she acted like an ostrich, but didn't speak.

Smith couldn't understand or what the other party was talking about, so he kept asking Lu Zhiqing what the other party was talking about.

Chu Yunqiu had no choice but to take it over, "Mr. Smith, this old gentleman is my second grandfather, that is, my grandfather's brother. He just said that Yueming Bay has clear and sweet water, many fish and shrimps, and a perfect ecology. There are a lot of fish and shrimp like this in the bay.”

"Oh, this is really a treasure." Smith is now very glad that he came here in person, otherwise he would have missed so many good things.

"Second Grandpa, this is Mr. Smith, who came to cooperate with our Chu Family Village. If this business is honest, our Chu Family Village will really get rid of poverty and become rich in the future," Chu Yunqiu said to Second Grandpa with a smile.

"Really", the second grandfather stopped fishing, put the fishing rod aside, and took his tobacco rod and dry pipe from the side, but after thinking about it, he seemed to be a foreigner, and he didn't smoke these things.

"Grandpa, just keep fishing. I'll take Mr. Smith to go somewhere else." Chu Yunqiu calmed down the second grandfather.

"Well, we must treat people well." The second grandfather also knew about this. A few days ago, the village chief and Grandpa Chu came to the house to talk about this, but almost everyone was on the sidelines.

"Don't worry, Second Grandpa." Then, Chu Yunqiu took Smith to another stone bridge. The structure of this stone bridge is very similar to Zhaozhou Bridge. It has a history of hundreds of years, and it was in the Ming Dynasty. built.

It has always existed in the Chu family village.

Later, it was protected by the government and was not allowed to open to traffic. First, because of its age and lack of maintenance, the entire stone bridge became a dangerous bridge, unable to bear the weight of carts. Second, it was because of fear of accidents.

Although it is not open to traffic, people can walk around. Since Chujiazhai became a scenic spot, there has been an endless stream of tourists coming here every day to enjoy the scenic lake. More importantly, the stone bridge is the best place to watch the Thousand-faced Carp.

So it attracts batch after batch of tourists.

Chu Yunqiu took Smith to the top of the stone bridge, and looked at the surrounding scenery below, feeling relaxed and happy.

"Wow, what kind of fish is this? I've never seen it before." Smith's exclamation suddenly came from around!
