Godly Fisherman

Chapter 15: Making dried abalone

The production of dried abalone is not simply a matter of drying the abalone. The production process is still very complicated: the first step is to peel the abalone with a round knife, leaving only the abalone meat, and then marinate it with a small amount of sea salt. Finally, it is cooked in clean sea water, and then dried. This is the dried abalone.

This is still the simplest and most common practice of fishermen. Like those masters of abalone in the country, they are not cooked in sea water after being marinated, but cooked repeatedly with the top broth with unique secrets, so that the abalone completely absorbs the freshness of the top soup. After the taste, it is dried. Therefore, it takes one year for the top masters of Jipin abalone to produce a batch of dried abalone in the country, and the recipes are kept secret.

Xiao Peng didn't have so much patience and time to make dried abalone like they did. He directly cooked the marinated abalone and put it in a dryer to dry it, saving even the sun. In this way, only a week later, Xiao Peng's dried abalone was produced.

Xiao Peng hurriedly contacted Ye Yuli and asked her to see how the dried abalone she produced was.

When Xiao Peng arrived at the ferry, Ye Yuli had been waiting for a long time. It seems that she is also very curious about the quality of the dried abalone produced by Xiao Peng here.

"Here, there are 20 fresh abalones and 100 dried abalones." Xiao Peng patted the fresh-keeping box next to him. The fresh abalones were sold directly in Ye Yuli's store.

Ye Yuli hurriedly picked up a dried abalone and observed it carefully. After looking at it for a while, Ye Yuli looked confused: "Xiao Peng, are you "old water"?"

Xiao Peng made Ye Yuli confused: "Sister Ye, what do you mean by "old water"?"

Ye Yuli showed a helpless smile: "Xiao Peng, I really don't know how to say you are good. You can raise such a good abalone, but why don't you know anything about dried abalone? This dried abalone is divided into "new water" and "old water". "Two kinds, the ones that have just been dried are called "new water", and the ones that have been stored for more than one or two years are collectively referred to as "old water." The abalones in the new water are not strong enough to have a "sugar heart". The old water abalones are well preserved. , It will make the abalone "sugar heart" better, and there will be frost on the surface of the abalone that has been stored for a long time. This is not mold, but the performance of top-grade abalone."

Xiao Peng was stunned when he heard it, "Sister Ye, don’t blame me for not understanding. I am a renunciation halfway through. If there is an accident at home, I can’t stand this stall. Maybe I’m still running in Yongcheng. What about business. So what do you mean by "sugar heart"?"

Ye Yuli went on to explain: "The term sugar-heart abalone. It originated in Guangdong and is also called sugar-body abalone. In Cantonese, the pronunciation of the word'body and heart' is the same. It means good old water abalone. There will be both sugar and abalone scent, which are converted from the protein of fresh abalone."

After speaking, Ye Yuli pointed to the hoarfrost on the surface of the dried abalone and said: "Look, your abalone has hoarfrost. This is the performance of old water abalone. But the longer the abalone, the more valuable it is. There is a saying that the abalone holds more value than gold. In the south, especially on Hong Kong Island, almost all rich people have kept dried abalone for many years."

Xiao Peng scratched his head: "I thought it was because I didn't keep it well and it's moldy."

Ye Yuli laughed: "You are too funny. I just listened to it as a joke. You abalone farmer don't even know this."

Xiao Peng is even more nervous about whether he can sell it quickly: "Sister Ye, then don't you try this dried abalone?"

Ye Yuli was completely speechless: "Xiao Peng, you are too anxious. Even if I want to post your two abalones, it will take at least a week."

To eat dried food, it must be watered first. Xiao Peng knew this, but he did not expect that dried abalone would take so long to be watered. They usually don’t need to eat dried abalone for so long, so they can eat it after soaking in the afternoon, which is really not so particular.

Ye Yuli also saw Xiao Peng’s doubts: "Ordinary dried abalone is not so troublesome, but this top-quality abalone needs to be watered, first in the sun, soak in cold water for a few days, and then add rice wine, white vinegar and ice cubes. Then boil it in hot water, and finally steam it with warm water. This is how it is made."

Xiao Peng was stunned when he heard: "Is it so troublesome to eat an abalone?"

Ye Yuli laughed: "You too underestimate the tongues of foodies. The procedure I just mentioned is still a simple process. Some foodies have to prepare half a month in advance to eat a good abalone."

Hearing that it takes so long to dry the abalone, Xiao Peng also became a little nervous. He was worried that he could not get the money.

Ye Yuli took out her mobile phone directly: "I will give you a uniform price for these abalones, 30,000 abalones. I will also charge this price for dried abalones of this quality in the future."

Xiao Peng was stunned: "Sister Ye, what are you doing? Why did it suddenly rise so much?"

Ye Yuli smiled: "I didn't increase the price for no reason. You have to do two things for me."

"What's the matter?" Xiao Peng asked, looking confused.

Seeing Xiao Peng’s expression, Ye Yuli also smiled: “Don’t be nervous, it’s all within your power. The first thing is that you register a brand for your abalone. This will facilitate my promotion.”

"This is more troublesome. Our farming license is collectively owned by the village. If a trademark is registered, the ownership will belong to the village." Xiao Peng said.

"Does your mariculture farm?"

"No, let's talk about it after I have contracted Qianliyan. It really doesn't work. I set up a company." Xiao Peng said.

Ye Yuli was a little disappointed, but she had no choice but to say: "Then I hope I can contract Qianliyan soon."

Xiao Peng nodded: "I will. This is my first goal. What about the second thing?"

Ye Yuli was ashamed: "Xiao Peng, logically, I shouldn't tell you about this second thing, but after thinking about it, you are the best person to help."

"Sister Ye, don't be polite, talk to you if you have something to do." Xiao Peng smiled. But Xiao Peng guessed that this matter should be related to Fang Ranran.

Sure enough, Ye Yuli said, "The second thing is that I hope Xiao Peng will do me a favor. It has something to do with Ranran. Now Ranran doesn't listen to me at all. I think she listens to you. I hope you can help me persuade Ranran. ."

"What about?" Xiao Peng asked.

Ye Yuli bit her lip and said, "As you know, I and Ran Ran's father are divorced. Ran Ran is now in a stage of rebellion. Whether it is his grandma's family or my friends, he is hostile. Remember to buy you one that day. The girl with a hundred abalones? In fact, she is my ex-husband’s sister. As for Zheng Gangsheng, let alone. I dare not let Ranran see me and Hong Kong together.

Xiao Peng smiled bitterly after hearing this: "Sister Ye, it's hard for a clean official to break housework. Do you think I will listen to this?"

Ye Yuli replied without thinking, "Don't just refuse like this. How can you know that she won't listen if you don't try?"

Xiao Peng nodded: "Okay Sister Ye, I will try my best."

Ye Yuli became happy after hearing this: "You promised it would be great. You will go back to school in the city in a few days. I hope you can talk to her during this time."

Fang Ranran studies high school in the city, usually lives on campus, and only goes home on weekends. Now it is back for the summer vacation.

Xiao Peng nodded: "Okay Sister Ye, I'll go to the hospital to see my parents, and I'll talk to Ran Ran later."

Xiao Peng nodded and agreed, Ye Yuli sent Xiao Peng directly to the hospital, and then gave Xiao Peng a few more words before leaving.

Before Xiao Peng walked into the ward, he heard Xiao Jianjun's voice: "It's useless to say anything, I will be discharged from the hospital today!"

However, Chen Aifen said: "Now that my son is so capable, why should I use you to go back to work? How about taking this opportunity to rest?"

Xiao Jianjun snorted: "He tossed at home like this, as if you were not worried."

Hearing this, Xiao Peng walked into the ward: "So you are so worried about me."

Chen Aifen listened and laughed: "It's your dad who is worrying about it, so I feel relieved."

Xiao Peng looked at Xiao Jianjun: "Dad, if you want to leave the hospital, just tell me, don't use me as a cover."

Xiao Jianjun looked embarrassed: "Son, I really can't stay in the hospital. Lying here every day, even if I'm not sick, I can get sick."

Xiao Peng laughed: "Then let's leave the hospital."

Xiao Jianjun didn't hear Xiao Peng's words clearly, and still complained there: "I'm here every day. I don't talk about spending money, I can't eat well, and I can't sleep well. You still let me...What? You said I was discharged? "

When Xiao Jianjun heard this, he jumped up from the hospital bed: "Walk around and go through the procedures. I don't want to stay longer for a minute."

Xiao Peng and Chen Aifen smiled at each other and went through the discharge procedures together. A family of three left the hospital.

Xiao Jianjun stopped a taxi to "go to the ferry terminal."

Xiao Peng said to the driver, "Go to the Agricultural Bank of China first."

Xiao Jianjun asked Xiao Peng with a face of doubt: "Why go to the bank?"

Xiao Peng naturally said, "What else can I do when I go to the bank? Withdraw money."

"Nonsense, of course I know." Xiao Jianjun glared at him: "Your mother and I still have some money here. What are you doing with the money?"

"Repay the family's foreign debt." Xiao Peng said lightly.

Chen Aifen was shocked when he heard this: "Can the foreign debt be paid? That's more than 700,000 yuan!"

Xiao Peng nodded: "Pay it back, I have more than four million yuan here." Except for the purchase of Enterotai, the money Xiao Peng earned during this period is there. He kept saving until Xiao Jianjun was discharged from the hospital to return the money to the villagers in one go. "More than four million?" Xiao Jianjun took a breath. "It's only a few days now? Didn't you make me and your mother happy?"

Xia Peng shrugged his shoulders: "Dad, Mom, what did I lie to you for? The money is in my card. It's all made from selling abalone, and this is just the beginning. Our family's investment over the years has come back."

When Chen Aifen heard this, she tilted her head and sneered Xiao Jianjun: "You have raised abalone for so many years, but you still can't keep up with your son, it's a shame."

Xiao Peng said quickly: "Mom, don't say that. It's because the old man has a good foundation. You are suspected of ruining the relationship between our father and son."

The mother happily said: "What's the damage? I see my son is happy and happy? You are much better than your dad!"

Dad was depressed: "You didn't say that at the time. You forced me to make more money every day, saying that my son is not promising, and he wants to make more money for his son!"

"Did I say that?" Mom pretended to be stunned.

A family of three talked and laughed and arrived at the bank. Xiao Peng looked at him, good fellow, there are so many people.
