The body of the puffer fish is round, short and thick, and it looks cute. When the boss took Ye Yulan and the others to see the live puffer fish, he also found that the puffer fish did not swim fast.
"Yes, puffer fish use their dorsal and caudal fins to swim from side to side, which is different from ordinary fish."
The boss explained to them that many fish have swimming muscles in the back half of their bodies in order to swim quickly in the water, but puffer fish do not have swimming muscles. This may be the feature that makes the meat of puffer fish delicious and tender.
It may be that the appearance of puffer fish is quite different from other fish. Lin Qing was squatting by the water, watching the boss skilfully stealing puffer fish with a net bag, and wanted to touch the small raised dots on the puffer fish skin with his hands.
Fortunately, Gu Yusheng quickly stopped him, letting the boss heave a sigh of relief and took his hand aside, "Puffer fish have very sharp teeth, they can crush oysters, so don't dare to touch them carelessly."
Lin Qing's hands were not as hard as oysters, and immediately felt a little timid after hearing this, and hurriedly raised his hands in surrender.
It's just that you can't think about it for a while, but you really should have a long memory.
Seeing Lin Qing's embarrassing expression, Huatang silently retracted her little claws.
Fortunately, Lin Qing made a mistake in advance, otherwise, the cat was also very curious and wanted to stretch out its paw and press it.
Whoever made the puffer fish roll up, there are still some small raised thorns on the body, which look a little bouncy, and the cat's claws are a bit disobedient.
"I remember that after the puffer fish skin is processed, it can become tough and thick. There were people who used puffer fish skin to make a helmet before." Without looking, Ye Yulan stretched out her hand to hold the cat's claw that was about to move, and chatted with the boss .
It may be because of the reputation of the delicacy of puffer fish. Everyone has heard some anecdotes more or less.
Gu Yusheng also found it very interesting. After giving instructions to Sweet Shrimp, he walked the dog by the water.
Playing around is usually playing around, but once it enters the command state, Sweet Shrimp is still very reliable. This dog is only because of his overly lively and cheerful personality. Even if he misses the iron job of a military dog, he is taught very well by Gu Yusheng. A good dog that can hold the field.
The puffer fish breeding base that Ye Yulan brought them here is quite large. Besides the two types of fugus that have been lifted, the boss also raises other species.
The toxins of puffer fish are still of great scientific significance in clinical medicine and biological research, and the economic benefits are relatively high after breeding. Of course, these are all raised alone, and they must never be mixed together, let alone let others touch them.
It is hidden in the corner of the farm under strict protection.
"Isn't there any news about stealing corn from the experimental field of the Agricultural College every year, or where to eat scientific research grapes?" With 500,000 scientific research funds per tree, stealing is wrong.
However, the current domestic laws and regulations are quite helpless for this kind of punishment. Most of them depend on whether the person who steals can realize that "the value of the property involved is huge."
Some villagers plausibly said that your corn and grapes tasted like nothing else, so why are you asking for sky-high prices? He can just pay two yuan according to the wholesale market price, or else he, an ordinary and honest man, will be forced to death.
It doesn't matter whether you have spent more than ten years of research effort, or how many teachers and students are waiting for the results to be analyzed, even if he is ignorant, he is justified.
The owner of the puffer fish has heard similar news, and also knows that other farms may have encountered fish stealers.
He didn't want to think of others with the worst results, but fugu is different. Even if it is non-toxic, it is best to be cooked by experienced and qualified chefs.
Not to mention, there are also poisonous species in the farms. The toxicity of some puffer fish is even equivalent to 1250 times that of the highly toxic drug arsenic, and it takes less than 0.5 mg to kill people.
Therefore, the boss strictly guarded this area, not only because he was afraid that others would steal it, but also because he was afraid that a thief would die on the spot after eating it.
Ye Yulan and the others also felt complicated when they heard this reason, but the boss was right to do this, otherwise, stealing a piece of fish from you and dying after eating it would be uncomfortable for anyone, even if the boss is right, Being so disgusted also affects the mood.
That is to say, the boss is familiar with Ye Yulan, so he will talk about this kind of thing, otherwise, Gu Yusheng and the others might not have thought of this level.
After everyone walked around the farm, the most exciting part came. The boss personally cooked the puffer fish for them, and then had a fugu feast.
Whether it is braised in soy sauce, stewed in soup, or eaten raw, the taste of puffer fish is very good. After Ye Yu asked if eating raw would cause parasites, she planned to give the sweet shrimp a taste.
It is rare to eat delicious and safe fugu, and sweet shrimp cannot be left behind.
As for Huatang, the little black cat had been eating and drinking with them all the time. Since she was familiar with the boss, Ye Yulan didn't hide that she wanted to add bowls and chopsticks to Huatang.
"... Sister Ye, the price of this puffer fish is not low!" The boss couldn't help but silently drifted over with his prodigal eyes, even if he was offering a friendly price for entertaining friends, this table of puffer fish feast is not cheap.
Now that cats, cats and dogs are added, the boss feels sorry for Sister Ye's money.
"This little guy is no different from my child, it's fine."
Rubbing the small round face of the black cat, Ye Yulan smiled calmly, and then urged her friend to cook quickly, since it was almost past meal time and she still hadn't eaten fish, and she would renege on her debt if it was later.
"Okay, I'll go and ask my son to come with me, don't look at him, he's only twelve or thirteen, he can pick up my farm in the future."
It was the boss who paid the money, and the boss didn't say anything else. He picked up sixteen or seven puffer fish in a net bag, and called his son to come and deal with the puffer fish.
A small knife cuts off the fins, cuts off the fish mouth, digs out the fish eyes, peels off the fish skin, and then cuts open the fish belly to take out the internal organs. Even if it is non-toxic, the boss only keeps the liver. This is the benefit of breeding, even if there is still a slight poison , has little effect on the human body.
Ye Yulan and the others wanted a lot of puffer fish, and soon a dark boy in a blue T-shirt came over. After smiling shyly at them, he gestured to his father, and then repeated the same action with scissors. Handle up pufferfish.
Seeing this movement, she knew it was proficient, Huatang couldn't help but leaned over to have a look, and got a shy smile from the boy, with very white teeth.
In his early ten years, he was not tall, but he was skilled in movements. Hua Tang and Tian Xia simply squatted next to the boy and only watched his performance.
In the eyes of layman cats and layman dogs, the boy's movements are more careful, skillful and perfect than the boss's.
Lin Qing and the others noticed the boy's sign language, and then they realized that the boy could not speak and was a mute.
This may also be the reason why the boss asked him to familiarize himself with the breeding of puffer fish very early. It is estimated that he hopes that the child can take over his class in the future, so that he can at least have the ability to eat.
The boy might be a little shy of strangers, so he squatted beside Gu Yusheng with his head down, getting farther and farther away from Gu Yusheng and the others, but he was not afraid of Huatang and Sweet Shrimp. a mouthful.
No matter young or old, most human beings can't resist the approach of fluffy. This boy is quite wary of strangers because he can't speak. good.
After being baptized by the sweet shrimp with saliva, he even laughed out his white teeth, and gently pushed the sweet shrimp back with his forehead, obviously he likes fluffy.
It may be because of his son's preference for Huatang and sweet shrimp. When he asked the boss to bring the ready-made puffer fish, he didn't look sideways at the black cat waiting to eat at the table. He generously lent a small pot that is not commonly used in the kitchen.
The boss looks ordinary, but his knife skills are excellent. He can cut raw puffer fish into paper-like slices. When Hua Tang saw that Sister Ye picked it up for her, she couldn't believe it was fish.
Gu Yusheng took a sip and nodded in surprise. This taste is definitely worthy of "death to eat puffer fish".
Bai Hefei and Lin Qing paused for a long time, probably trying to search for adjectives, but this puffer fish is tender and fresh without any fishy smell. Whether it is fish soup or braised in soy sauce, it is extremely delicious and melts in the mouth. The search failed for a long time, and I can only hate myself for patting my thigh for being uneducated, eating first as a respect.
This means that it can be eaten here, and it is difficult to copy it in other places, even Gu Yusheng can't do it.
Because the delicacy of puffer fish does not lie in the cooking skills, but in the ingredients themselves, and there are so many precautions in handling and cooking, which requires professionals. Gu Yusheng will definitely not take the initiative to do this.
Therefore, probably thinking that this delicacy is rare, the table was full without looking up, except for patting her thighs and using chopsticks, Hua Tang learned to use a spoon to scoop fish soup for herself.
It was Maomao's claws, which were really not easy to use. Huatang was trembling so that the fish soup was not wasted on the table.
After eating and drinking enough, the group checked out and left. The boss's son also hid aside, waving to Hua Tang and Tian Xia.
The boy was in his teens, and was made even darker by the blue T-shirt. However, he was a little special and cute. Hua Tang and Tian Xia liked it very much. They even waved their paws, making the boy smile with white teeth.
After driving the car for a certain distance, Ye Yulan sat in the passenger seat and called the boss, asking him to remember where to put the money.
Breeding is not easy, especially for puffer fish, which is a relatively delicate species. The boss has also endured a lot of hardships to save up today's food. Ye Yulan is a friend, and she has no habit of eating from big players to take advantage of it.
Therefore, she made up for the price difference that the boss specially offered, and she found a cup to suppress it.
"If you do this again, I won't come to eat puffer fish. How many years have we known each other? Are you, Sister Ye, and I taking advantage of you? The price is so low, how to coax the children? Hurry up, don't talk nonsense, just continue to make better food next time .”
Ye Yulan was impatient with this kind of push and pull, asking her friend to accept the money, similar to today's tone of chopping someone up, Huatang couldn't help but show her head, and wanted to answer the phone openly.
But it can also be seen that the relationship is really good. Huatang also heard the boss laughing on the phone and said that next time he will make better fugu.
