Chapter 980: Chapter 980: Lin Feng’s Uncle!

The stern-faced middle-aged man picked up the information about Lin Feng on the table and began to flip through it.

"First biding his time, appearing ordinary, then rising up a few months before the college entrance exam..."

"Nationwide top scorer with a perfect score on the college entrance exam..."

"Net worth in the billions..."

"Hmm?? Personally received by the Living Buddha..."

"Interesting..."

"It seems this nephew of mine is quite the remarkable character..."

The middle-aged man chuckled to himself, muttering under his breath.

Meanwhile, Lin Feng was oblivious to all of this!

Even if he knew his information was being dug up, Lin Feng wouldn’t care; with his system and reincarnated identity, he was confident no one could find out!

As for his sudden rise, isn’t that easy to explain?

He was inherently so capable, just low-key, but now he chose not to be, is that not allowed?

After all, he hadn’t done anything particularly shocking; how could anyone suspect him!

At most, people might think he’s more competent and smarter than average!

If asked, he’s just a genius!

Nothing else, the prowess of a genius is beyond imagination!

...

At this moment, Lin Feng was savoring the exquisite taste of Quanjude’s roast duck!

The origin of roast duck dates back a long time!

According to records from over 400 years ago during the Southern and Northern Dynasties, the term "roast duck" appeared in the "Book of Treasures."

By the Southern Song Dynasty, roast duck was a famous delicacy in Lin’an (Hangzhou).

In fact, roast duck was not only a popular dish among the common people but also a delicacy in the households of the gentry.

Later on, according to "History of the Yuan Dynasty," after the Yuan army captured Lin’an, General Bayan relocated the artisans from Lin’an to Dadu (Jingcheng), thus spreading the technique of roast duck to Jingcheng, where it became a rare delicacy in the Yuan imperial palace.

With the change of dynasties, roast duck became a culinary delight in the palaces of the Ming and Qing Dynasties.

During the Ming Dynasty, roast duck was an essential dish for the palace’s Lantern Festival, later officially named "Jingcheng Roast Duck."

As society evolved, Jingcheng roast duck gradually spread from the royal palace to the common people.

Lin Feng and the others looked at the roast duck in front of them, mouth-watering.

The duck slicing master explained that this roast duck is quite particular, made from high-quality meat duck, roasted over fruitwood charcoal, with a lustrous red hue and rich yet not greasy meat.

The roasted duck appears plump, with a jujube red color, crispy skin, charred exterior, tender interior, and a hint of fruitwood fragrance!

This is the true Jingcheng roast duck.

The group tried a piece without any sauce.

"Hiss..."

Crispy outside, tender inside, the flavor was just right, so delicious it almost made them bite their tongues.

Although it can be eaten directly, the more authentic way is to wrap it with pancakes and vegetables, which offers another kind of taste!

A nearby waiter enthusiastically helped the group roll up the roast duck.

Lin Feng glanced and learned how to do it, after all, it was quite simple!

Lin Feng handed a rolled-up roast duck to Zhang Yuxi.

Zhang Yuxi smiled sweetly and took it.

"Oh..."

This scene was so ’sickeningly sweet’ that Li Yangwei and Jiang Anmin almost wanted to cry!

This affection, ever-present!

Too tough!

Aside from roast duck, the other dishes were also quite delicious!

Truly befitting the capital where emperors once resided!

Gourmet food is everywhere!

In the end, most of the two roast ducks ended up in Jiang Anmin’s belly!

Lin Feng shook his head and chuckled.

This guy ate so much his belly was round, like a pregnant woman several months along!

Amusing Lin Feng and Zhang Yuxi and the others to laughter!

After this meal, everyone was satisfied!

Quanjude, it truly lives up to its reputation!

After eating, the group planned to stroll around Tianan Square, to feel the atmosphere of great figures!

When they said go, they went!

After Lin Feng paid the bill, they called another taxi and set off!

On the way, the taxi driver skillfully weaved through the traffic, even taking a shortcut through an alleyway.

Lin Feng always had a doubt in his mind, why were these taxi drivers so skilled?

Almost every taxi driver was like this, their driving skills comparable to those of professional race car drivers, able to maneuver any terrain!

Practice makes perfect?

That seemed to be the only reasonable explanation!

Before long, the taxi arrived at Tianan Square!

After getting out of the car, they saw the vast square!

There were quite a few people leisurely strolling around at that time!

Tianan Square is located in the center of Jingcheng.

On the south side of the Forbidden City, opposite Tianan Square across Chang’an Street, is the gate of the imperial city during the Ming and Qing Dynasties.

Entering the magnificent Tianan Square, stopping in front of the viewing platform, looking south, the colonnade of the memorial hall, the buildings brightly dazzling, like massive jade sculptures standing on the square.

The apricot-yellow glazed tile eaves, like two golden rainbows spanning the sky.

The square pavilion with 44 surrounding columns, like jade pillars holding up the sky.

The bright windows and doors between the jade pillars, reflecting the sunlight, dazzling like a hanging waterfall.

And the date-red base, white jade railings, like red clouds and white mists, setting off this simple, grand building, making it appear taller and more imposing.

The group walked, amazed at the combination of ancient art and modern elements, all expressing their amazement!

This combination didn’t feel abrupt at all, but rather just right!

As they were walking, they suddenly noticed a squad of soldiers marching in unison ahead!

These are the soldiers defending Huaxia!

These traits, this demeanor, a commander should be like this!

Suddenly, a solemn-faced middle-aged man approached them!

With a few soldiers trailing behind!

He quickly arrived in front of Lin Feng and the others.

The group was all puzzled.

Li Yangwei was also puzzled, thinking his grandfather hadn’t informed anyone about his visit to Jingcheng?

Was he looking for him?

However, the middle-aged man in front of them had a somewhat complicated look as he gazed at Lin Feng.

Lin Feng’s heart stirred, seemingly realizing something.

He calmly said.

"Hello, can I help you?"

The middle-aged man glanced over, then slowly spoke.

"You’re Lin Feng, aren’t you?"

This made Li Yangwei and Jiang Anmin puzzled!

Was this person here for Lin Feng??

And Zhang Yuxi seemed to realize something as well; she didn’t speak, just tightened her grip on Lin Feng’s hand slightly.

Lin Feng turned to look at Zhang Yuxi, indicating she needn’t worry.

Then Lin Feng turned to the middle-aged man, speaking calmly.

"Yes, I am, may I ask what it is?"

"Lin Feng, well... I’m your uncle..."

The middle-aged man slowly said.

"What?!"

Li Yangwei and Jiang Anmin were utterly shocked!

To meet Lin Feng’s uncle here?!

Lin Feng stared directly at the middle-aged man, calmly speaking.

"Sorry, I don’t have an uncle!"

Li Yangwei: "..."

Jiang Anmin: "..."

Lin Feng’s words left the middle-aged man awkwardly embarrassed.

He awkwardly spoke.

"Uh..."

"Lin Feng, regardless of whether you acknowledge it or not, I am still your mother’s brother, your uncle!"

"Drop by the military district family compound sometime, come see your aunt and cousin."

The middle-aged man reached out, wanting to pat Lin Feng’s shoulder, hesitated and then put his hand down.

"I have work here, so I’ll leave first. If you encounter any difficulties in Jingcheng, feel free to find me!"

With that, he turned and walked away.

Lin Feng watched him calmly, saying nothing.
