Chapter 14 Digging for Treasures
Seeing Zhang Lan waving the kitchen knife skillfully and quickly, Li Tongtong on the side was dazzled and couldn't help but said: "Brother-in-law, you actually pretended that you don't know how to cook before. You hid it so deeply."

"The chef doesn't cook at home." Zhang Lan replied while chopping vegetables.

Watching Zhang Lan remove the scales, gills and internal organs from a grass carp, wash it inside and out and then wipe it dry.Then cut the fish head and draw the fish line, then separate the fish meat and fish bones, and start to fillet the fish with a knife from left to right.Looking at the thin fish fillets, Li Tongtong's eyes lit up: "Brother-in-law, let's make pickled fish. I'll buy pickled cabbage buns."

"Go and take out the vegetables you just bought from the refrigerator and rinse them with water. We won't be making pickled fish today." Zhang Lan opened her mouth to stop Li Tongtong.

"Then what to eat? It would be a shame if you cut the fish fillets so thin and don't eat the pickled fish."

"Don't you like spicy food? We eat boiled fish." Zhang Lan put the cut fish fillets into a bowl and started marinating them with egg white, starch, cooking wine and other seasonings.

Zhang Lan placed the induction cooker on the coffee table in the living room, connected it to the power supply, and then placed the cooked fish on it.Li Tongtong walked out of the kitchen with two bowls of rice and said as she walked: "Brother-in-law, the boiled fish you cook is so delicious."

"It's delicious, isn't it? You've almost eaten half of it without bringing the pot." Zhang Lan said angrily.

"Brother-in-law, your cooking is not that good. Besides, you can also eat boiled fish hot pot now." Putting the rice on the coffee table, Li Tongtong handed the chopsticks to Zhang Lan while giving a big smile.

After dinner, Zhang Lan just lay lazily on the sofa and breathed a sigh of relief when the phone rang.

"Brother Tiger, what's the matter?"

"Where are you?" Zhang Hu's voice came from the other side of the phone.

"I'm in the city and I just had dinner." Zhang Lan moved on the sofa and stretched.

"Are you driving? I'll send you an address. Come over quickly. Something good will happen." Zhang Hu's voice was full of excitement.

"What a good thing? It's mysterious." Zhang Lan didn't want to go.

"The moat dredging project in our city contracted by Brother Yong and Brother Yong, the water transport terminal was dug out just before noon. Now many people are digging for treasures here. Whether you can come or not, we will prepare a report in the afternoon."

"What good things are there at Pier [-]? Aren't they all bricks and stones?"

"I just dug a copper basin and sold it for more than 1000 yuan on the spot. Are you coming?" Zhang Hu lowered his voice.

"Send me the address, I'll be there soon." Zhang Lan hung up the phone and stood up immediately, shouting to Li Tongtong who was washing dishes in the kitchen: "Tongtong, don't wash it yet, come on, I will take you to a fun place."

Following the location of Zhang Hufa, Zhang Lan drove the navigation without stopping and stopped at a construction site surrounded by fences. This was an old city that was being demolished. After finding a place to park the car, Zhang Lan led Li Tongtong. We walked eastward along the old city and followed the dug old river to the place where Zhang Hufa was found.

Before I even got close, I could see from a distance that the place was already crowded with people.When I walked in and took a look, there were people digging there with excavators, people digging with shovels and rakes, and there were people watching the excitement.There were hundreds of people in various places, and it looked very lively.

Zhang Lan looked around, but couldn't see where Zhang Hu was. Zhang Lan was looking for him when Li Tongtong saw his classmates, said hello to Zhang Lan and ran over to join them.He took his mobile phone and called Zhang Hu. After a while, a man from the river on the east side of the construction site waved his hand towards Zhang Lan. Zhang Lan walked in and took a look, and couldn't help laughing.

The old moat is already full of mud. How can a group of people dig for treasures in the mud get better.Fortunately, it is summer now, but the appearance on his body and face is no longer visible.

She reached out and pulled Zhang Hu out of the mud pit he dug. Looking at the nearly one meter mud pit dug by Zhang Hu, Zhang Lan couldn't help laughing: "Cousin, how deep are you going to dig?"

"Didn't I find something here before? When you weren't here, the excavator over there dug out two porcelain jars, but they were discovered when they were poured down, and they were smashed. "Zhang Hu said, pointing to an excavator on the side.

"How come my excavator is digging like it's not ready to eat?" Zhang Lan was just wondering what was going on with the excavator.

Zhang Hule laughed loudly: "Tens of thousands of dollars will be lost in one bucket, but don't dig lightly."

"Is it time to dig? I think it's a bit difficult to dig things out. Maybe someone from the Cultural Relics Bureau will be here soon." Looking at the bustling crowd, Zhang Lan retreated.

"We won't be able to dig unless our tools work. Just for a while at noon, Fatty Zeng will report to the construction site he contracted later." Zhang Hu borrowed a water pipe from the construction site nearby to wash himself off.

"You should get a detector and play around here with a shovel." Looking at the river full of mud and people, Zhang Lan had a deeper understanding of Zhang Hu's unreliability. There are good things in the mystery.

"Where are we going to find the detector at this moment? I'll borrow this shovel from the construction site." Zhang Hu handed the shovel in his hand to Zhang Lan: "Brother, do you want to come over for a while?"

"Forget it, go and return the shovel to me." Zhang Lan waved her hand in thanks.

Seeing Li Tongtong chatting happily with his classmates, Zhang Lan said hello from a distance: "Tongtong, I'm leaving now. Are you here or going together?"

Li Tongtong pulled her classmates towards Zhang Lan. After approaching, she introduced the classmates with a bright smile: "Sister, this is my brother-in-law Zhang Lan. The boiled fish he makes is very delicious. I eat it for lunch." I’m done.”

Then he turned to Zhang Lan and introduced: "Brother-in-law, this is Sun Weiwei, the eldest sister from my dormitory. I will go with you later, and the eldest sister will come with me. Just now, I told the eldest sister that I would live in your house in the city during the summer vacation. I’m working summer vacation with my eldest sister.”

Zhang Lan smiled and greeted Sun Weiwei.

Sun Weiwei responded with a smile and thought to herself: This is the brother-in-law that Tongtong talks about every day. He looks very ordinary.I don’t know what Tongtong is interested in. She smiles when she mentions it. Could it be that the cooking is delicious?I’ve never heard Tongtong say that before.

Li Tongtong didn't know the psychological activities of her eldest sister Sun Weiwei. After introducing the two of them, she asked Zhang Lan when he was leaving. She wanted to go to Zhang Lan's house with Sun Weiwei to take a look.

"Leave now. Wait for my cousin to return the things and ask him if he is with us."

Zhang Hu had already put the shovel next to an excavator and was almost at Zhang Lan's side.Hearing Zhang Lan's words from a distance, he looked at the two young and beautiful little girls standing next to Zhang Lan, winked at Zhang Lan and waved his hands quickly: "Zhang Lan, you can go by yourself. I'll be there later if I have something else to do." I won’t be with you anymore.”
