Food rights and wine beauty: turn a god to farm

Chapter 32 New Seafood Varieties

The boss of the boat was a little surprised, then took a step back, and finally found an opportunity to introduce the new product to everyone, "I don't know what this thing is, but it is an edible shellfish, we have all eaten it, and there is no problem, the taste Not bad."

shellfish?

Everyone was surprised when they heard the words, no matter how they looked like stones, how could they be shellfish.

"Can I take a look?" An Ning asked.

"Please." The boat boss turned sideways and made a gesture of please.

An Ning walked over and squatted down, and a crew member helped to open the net bag, revealing the corner of the 'rock', then took the tool, pried along the gap, and immediately pried out a hole, exposing the shellfish inside.

"Hey, there are indeed, but this thing is really a seashell? It's so strange, are you sure you can eat it? There won't be any problem, right?"

The surrounding people began to ask questions in a hurry. The boss of the boat didn't know anything about this thing, so far he only knew that it was edible, and the taste was just so-so.

An Ning reached out to pick up the meat inside, smelled it, then turned to the crew next to him and said, "Please give me some fresh water or sake."

"I have wine here." The crew member listened and untied a water bag from his waist.

Everyone looked at her suspiciously, not knowing what she was going to do.

Wei Sichen hugged Kangkang and squatted beside her, "Is this food edible?"

An Ning didn't say anything, took the water bag, poured it on the oyster meat, and then ate it directly.

"Hey, you, why are you eating recklessly, spit it out!" The people around were shocked, and Wei Sichen quickly reached out to pinch her jaw.

An Ning quickly pushed his hand away and said, "It's okay, Mr. Lu said he already ate."

She has no sense of taste, and just tried the taste and freshness of the oysters, and she was very satisfied in the end.

The oysters are very delicious. Even if the taste is not good, the taste in the mouth can almost fill the nose. The taste is also excellent, which is considered top grade.

Wei Sichen frowned, shot cold eyes at the boss of the boat, and said in a deep voice, "You guys have eaten it before, are you sure it's harmless to your body?"

The boss of the boat, that is, the third master Lu, felt a chill coming from all directions when he saw it. He swallowed, and said dryly, "It's true that I have eaten it. It hasn't been a serious problem for a month."

"Okay, I believe in Mr. Lu, so are these things sold, and how?" An Ning grabbed Wei Sichen's arm suggestively, and asked Mr. Lu.

Wei Sichen looked down at the grasped arm and shut up.

Mr. Lu secretly heaved a sigh of relief when he heard the words, and quickly said, "I don't know the value of this thing now, and this time it's just for trial sale. Since Madam believes in me, I will give these to Madam for the first time, and I will buy them again next time." Bring some here, if Madam still wants it, you can come here next time, then I will give you a [-]% discount."

"Thank you then." An Ning was not polite, got up and went to look at other wooden barrels, and began to choose from the fish and shrimp.

Probably due to the long distance and lack of modern oxygen pumping equipment, many of these seafood, including shellfish, are dead. Although the big fish are alive, they are basically sticky.

An Ning picked a sturgeon and a sea bass, asked the price, and picked two lobsters, a few catties of sea shells, and some tiger shrimp.

"By the way, do you have dry goods? What's the price?" An Ning asked Mr. Lu.

Mr. Lu smiled like a Maitreya Buddha, and nodded quickly when he heard the words, "Yes, there are scallops, dried shrimps, dried octopus, and some dried fish. There are many kinds. Madam, you can go on the boat and pick them out." ?”

Because seafood can be transported to Liuyun Town, anyone who can afford to buy seafood here will basically not spend a lot of money to buy dry goods. These dry goods are supposed to be shipped to more remote places for sale.

"Okay." An Ning nodded and turned to look at Wei Sichen.

Wei Sichen frowned slightly, walked up to her side by side with her, and followed Mr. Lu towards the dock not far away.

On the way, An Ning would occasionally ask Mr. Lu about the sea area, mostly seafood and other things.

Mr. Lu will also answer one by one.

The simple dock is not far from here.

"Boat?" Kang Kang's childish voice suddenly sounded excited.

An Ning turned her head, and saw the little guy looking at several ships docked at the dock with bright eyes.

"Well, it's a boat, have you seen it?" Wei Sichen nodded seriously.

"No, Second Uncle Du said so." Kangkang shook his head.

"Whether Kangkang wants to take a boat or not, he can swim on the water."

Kangkang subconsciously wanted to nod, but when he thought of something, he carefully turned his head to look at An Ning.

Peaceful but silent.

"Hehe, the little boy is really cute. He must be five or six years old. My little grandson is almost five years old this year."

"My son is exactly five years old this year." An Ning replied with a smile.

While talking, they had already walked across the wooden bridge, and the three of them boarded the boat and entered the cabin where the cargo was placed.

As soon as the door was opened, a salty smell immediately filled the nose.

With a keen sense of smell like Wei Sichen's, he immediately frowned.

An Ning didn't care, but she was very satisfied with the smell, and could judge the freshness of things.

Third Master Lu quickly opened several cloth bags, revealing the contents inside.

There are indeed many types, but the quality is quite good.

In the end, An Ning did not disappoint Mr. Lu, and transferred a lot of dry goods, which together could make up a sack half the height of an adult.

She clapped her hands, then raised her eyebrows at Wei Sichen who was frowning all the time, "Pay the bill."

When he asked to learn how to cook, the other party also asked for a package of food. He provided the ingredients and demanded high-quality meals for each meal. As a result, An Ning almost became his cook, so An Ning spent money without any pressure, since it was not her money anyway.

Wei Sichen frowned as he looked at the dry goods she picked.

It’s not that it’s expensive. For those who can eat fresh seafood at any time, dry goods are also inferior products. Only those who can’t eat fresh seafood will eat them. It seems that in the future, we will find a way to let people collect some. This woman seems to like the fresh seafood.

In the end, Wei Sichen paid the bill proudly, not counting oysters, but two fish, two catties of tiger shrimp, two lobsters, one catty of white shellfish and scallops, and one catty of conch shells. The total cost was 500 taels.

You must know that ten taels of silver is enough for a farmer with a good family to spend for a year.

Sure enough, eating seafood is like swallowing gold.

Dry goods are relatively cheap, and the price is uniform. The total is about 400 catties, which is about [-] taels.

According to modern calculations, one tael is about 100 yuan, so today the seafood alone costs [-] yuan, which is really expensive.

However, these dry goods are actually not cheap in modern times. On the contrary, according to the quality of the dry goods, they are still relatively cheap.

In addition to the oyster stone, Mr. Lu finally arranged for them a few crew members to help them send the things back.

On the way, Kangkang put his arms around An Ning's neck, and kept staring curiously at the bucket being carried behind. Inside were two fish, each as long as an old man's arm, and one at least twenty catties.

The shrimp and shellfish were placed in a small wooden basin, supported by Wei Sichen.

"Mom, are these really edible?" Kangkang was a little excited when he saw such a strange thing for the first time, and almost turned into 1 whys along the way.
