Chapter 388 Illegal?
"What, is this the maw of a yellow-lipped fish?"

"Oh my god, this yellow-lipped fish is a rare item that can only be encountered but cannot be found!"

"I have only heard of it before. This thing is too rare and can rarely be caught. Some people will never catch one in their lifetime."

Everyone discussed in whispers. Although none of them had seen it with their own eyes, they had heard a lot about the legend of the yellow-lipped fish.

This is definitely the most expensive ingredient, bar none.

"Yeah, this thing is really hard to buy, so I asked Boss Chu to see if I could get some.

I discovered this dish when Boss Chu asked me to order in advance. This old traditional dish has not appeared in front of everyone for a long time.

In order to make this dish shine again, I replaced the high-end fish maw with this top-quality fish maw.

But the problem is that time is tight. The banquet will be held in three days. It is a bit difficult to purchase such rare ingredients at this time, but fortunately, Boss Chu finally bought it. "

Longma then revealed the reason why this dish was so expensive.

The difference between a high-end product and a top-level product is a huge gap.

High-end fish maws cost tens of thousands of yuan per catty, and there are many types. Cheap fish maws only cost several hundred yuan per catty, but the word "top" completely raises the price to millions.

"Mr. Long, you are so thoughtful. I have never eaten such expensive fish maw. Today is all thanks to you."

"It's a good thing. I've heard about it a long time ago. Today I'm not only feasting for my eyes, but also for my mouth, haha!"

"I won't say much more. I have kept Mr. Long's heroic spirit in my heart. If you have anything to do in the future, just say it. If you can be my friend, I will definitely help."

Everyone almost has the same idea in their hearts. This Ryoma is really too arrogant. He invites millions of things at any time. What does this mean? It shows that he cares about everyone and hopes to maintain a good cooperative relationship with everyone.

They all hang out in the circle, and all they want is face. Today, if word spreads about this, Longma treats himself to a million-level dishes, how much face it would be.

What's more, there is a great master here today. The arrival of Lao Wang is a reassurance for everyone. Business is all about personal connections. If Longma can invite Lao Wang, it explains a lot of problems.

Everyone was very happy and the atmosphere was very lively, except for one person, Mr. Shui. Mr. Shui was a gourmet foodie. When he heard that this dish was made from the maw of the yellow-lipped fish, not only did he not show any expression of joy, but There was a slight frown.

Naturally, Mr. Shui's reaction could not escape Longma's eyes. He was also curious about why Shui always had such an expression. Logically speaking, he should be very happy. Such top-notch delicacies are not worth it to a person who loves gourmet food. Should it be a kind of happiness?

"Mr. Shui, what's wrong? You seem to have something to say?" Long Ma saw that he was hesitant to speak, so he asked.

"Mr. Long, I'm not trying to dampen everyone's interest. There's something I don't know whether I should say or not?" Mr. Shui looked at the cameras around him and felt a little hesitant.

"If you have anything to say, just say it. I see you've been holding it in for a long time." Mr. Shui's face almost turned the color of liver from holding it in, and Long Ma couldn't help but laugh a little.

"Well, you may not know yet, but the yellow-lipped fish is now listed as a national second-level protected animal. It is illegal to eat it now."

After Mr. Shui finished speaking, he sighed. He had made up his mind to be the "evil person" today. If he didn't make this clear, what if he really broke the law?
Seeing that everyone's interest is so high, I really don't want to pour cold water on it at this time.

"Huh? This thing is now a protected animal?"

"No, is it illegal to eat this stuff?"

"I've never heard of it. Is it wrong? Didn't I see in the news that a boss spent millions collecting fish? How could it be illegal?"

Mr. Shui's words caused a big stir. Everyone couldn't believe that this thing was actually illegal, but no one had heard of it.

The live broadcast is still going on here today. Although everyone felt a little awkward about the live broadcast at first, others, Lao Wang, don't care, so what can I say?

Moreover, the style here is extremely elegant, the dishes are extremely exquisite, and the drinks are extremely valuable, making everyone forget that there is a live broadcast.

But it's different now. If this thing is illegal, everyone will see this live broadcast. Although I haven't eaten yet, I can't explain it clearly after it made the news.

What if some unscrupulous media give you a very controversial topic and mark it as the CEOs of a certain company having dinner together to eat nationally protected animals? Even if the word "didn't eat" is written in the article, the people who eat melons will not Will be so careful.

This is like yellow mud falling off your crotch, either * or *. When the time comes, your reputation and the company's reputation may be damaged. If it affects your business, it will be more than worth the loss.

So everyone focused their attention on Longma to see what he had to say.

"Mr. Shui is right. Yellow-lip fish is indeed a second-level protected animal in our country, and it is prohibited to buy, sell or eat it."

Long Ma said this in a leisurely manner, as if he was not anxious at all after hearing about the violation of the law, which made people a little confused.

"Mr. Long, you clearly know that it is illegal, so why don't you still do it?"

"Yeah, how can this illegal thing be eaten?"

"We haven't eaten it yet, so there's nothing wrong with it, but the person who purchased the ingredients and the chef who made the dish might not be at odds with each other."

Everyone was a little surprised when they heard that Long Ma personally admitted this matter. What on earth is Long Ma doing?

You know it's illegal, but you still do live broadcasts and tell others in such a big way that you are eating protected animals?

Isn't this hitting yourself at the muzzle?
No matter how big your business is and how strong your connections are, if you want to eat it you can eat it quietly at home. As long as no one knows, no one will care about you.

But if you "break the law" openly and openly, then you are a little too arrogant, right?

“Haha, don’t get me wrong, I just said it is illegal in our country, but there is no problem with fish maw purchased legally overseas.

The maw of this yellow-lipped fish is not available in China. As we all know, this thing is called fish maw in the mainland, and it is called fish maw in coastal areas, Hong Kong and Southeast Asia. It is a very nourishing thing.

This fish maw was bought by Boss Chu in Myanmar, and there were legal procedures. Don’t worry, the country allows such things to be purchased legally from abroad, and it is not illegal. "

"So that's it. It seems like I'm overthinking it. I'm really sorry, Mr. Long. By the way, how much did the fish maw cost per pound? How much did you pay for the courier fee?"

Food experts like Mr. Shui really want to know the current price of this thing, and others are also very curious. Now that the alarm has been lifted, the stones in their hearts have dropped, and they are all waiting for Longma to answer his questions.
