Chapter 1,314 Contributing to the Country

The carriage walked along the most prosperous section of Nanhai City and arrived at the roast duck restaurant.

As soon as he entered the door, Xiao Chenzi greeted him warmly, and then quickly delivered the luggage that Lian'er had just brought to the third floor, asking them to wait for a while, and dinner would be ready soon!

Ying Zheng brought the imperial chef on this trip.

But I ate all the way on the train, and the vegetarian food in the Taishan Palace was also made by the imperial chefs in the palace.

Now that I have arrived in Nanhai City, I have to change my taste no matter what I say.

The main business of roast duck restaurant is roast duck, but this thing is also available in other counties and counties, not the only one in Nanhai City.

In addition, Ying Zheng and others have lived in the inland for many years and rarely eat fish and shrimps in the sea.

Therefore, the shopkeeper decided to focus on seafood for dinner, with roast duck and various stir-fry dishes as supplements. He first tested everyone's taste, and then decided on the dishes for the next few days!

After about two quarters of an hour, the waiter called everyone to the first floor and said that the supper was ready!

At this time, everyone was hungry and put their chests on their backs. I heard that they had started eating, so they went downstairs without delaying for a moment!

"Hmm? What's the taste? So fresh?"

Wang Wan walked a few steps along the stairs and smelled a scent.

"It seems... crayfish?"

Zhang Jia thought for a while and spoke.

"Well! It does taste like boiling crayfish in water, but it also feels slightly heavier than boiled crayfish!"

Zhang Xi sniffed carefully and nodded slightly.

"What's wrong with him! Even if you eat plain rice, you feel good!"

Wang Wan is really hungry.

After a while, I arrived in Nanhai City, I went to the train station to pick up my mother and then turned back.

I didn’t have the chance to buy food, everyone was waiting for this meal!

After going downstairs one after another, Ying Feiyu almost drooled in public after seeing the dishes on the table!

Abalone, sea cucumber, lobster, crab, and all kinds of seafood!

The ecological environment in this era is well protected. Not only are the fish in the river, but the seafood in the sea are even more outrageous!

The abalone is bigger than an adult fist.

The length of the lobster can reach half a meter, and when it is alive, it weighs at least six or seven kilograms.

Not to mention crabs, sea cucumbers, etc., it is much better than the fine seafood from later generations!

The last time I took a boat with Bada Dad, I caught fish in the sea. The meat was firm and the taste was delicious.

But crabs, abalone and other things are not good with fishing rods, and I don’t know where the shopkeeper got these things!

"Wow! Husband, what are these?"

Wang Wan circled around the table and asked in amazement.

Except for the roast duck that she is more familiar with, she can be said to have no idea about anything else on the table!

"Husband, I know this, it must be a crayfish!"

Zhang Xi's eyes were shining with a smug light, he smiled and spoke, and then he became suspicious, "But... what did these crayfish grow up with? Why are they so big? The crayfish in Xianyang may grow up to such a big size?"

"Haha! No...!"

Ying Feiyu smiled and shook his head, "These lobsters are not eaten so big, but have different varieties!"

"So that's it! I'll just say it! If these lobsters are eaten well, why doesn't Xianyang use this method? It can sell more money!"

The little girl squinted her eyes and smiled.

"Husband, what are those?"

"This is abalone, octopus...!"

"Haha! Lao Wang, come and see if this looks like the mace we use?"

Ying Feiyu was patiently introducing the girls at the table. Kang Anping pointed at one of the dishes and greeted Wang Ben.

"Hmm? It's true, it's a bit of that meaning!"

Wang Ben leaned over curiously and then laughed.

"What a mace, this one is called sea cucumber, which has a high nutritional value!"

Ying Feiyu smiled helplessly.

"Hmm? Sea cucumber? Ginseng in the sea? No matter how you look at this thing, you think it can't be hung with ginseng?"

After hearing the name, the two frowned slightly.

"Didn't my husband say that this thing is very nutritious, maybe its nutritional value is comparable to ginseng!"

Although Zhangxi is young, his mind is smart.

I heard some tricks from Ying Feiyu's words.

"Well! My Xier is still smart!"

Zhang Han gilded himself when he saw the opportunity.

Before everyone could understand the dishes on the table, Ying Zheng and Lian'er also walked downstairs!

The extra tables on the first floor have been removed, leaving only two large round tables.

A table is left for Ying Zheng, Lian'er, Ying Feiyu, Wang Wan and others.

The other table is Wang Ben and Zhang Han and a few old guys!

Everyone tacitly found their seats!

The shopkeeper and Xiao Chenzi carried the tray and brought the freshly hot wine.

At the same time, introduce them to the dishes on the table!

"This dish is braised abalone, this is steamed lobster, spicy and octopus..."

The shopkeeper introduced all the dishes on the table one by one.

"Yeah! It's done well!"

Ying Zheng took a brief taste and nodded with satisfaction.

"Thank you for the praise of the Supreme Emperor!"

The shopkeeper quickly bowed and breathed a sigh of relief.

It seems that this is the right thing to do.

What good things have Your Majesty and the Supreme Emperor never eaten in the palace?

It’s no problem to fly in the sky, run on the ground, and swim in the water.

That is, what they have in the sea is considered fresh!

After all, these things die when they get ashore, and it is difficult to support them, let alone long-distance transportation!

"Are these things caught on fishing nets?"

What Ying Feiyu was curious about was the salvage method.

"No, no, no, fishing nets can catch at most some octopus and crabs. As for lobsters and abalone, fishing nets for sea cucumbers are not good at all!"

The shopkeeper shook his head.

"Oh? Not using fishing nets, how did you catch these?"

"It depends on Xiao Chenzi!"

Faced with Ying Feiyu's question, the shopkeeper nodded at Xiao Chenzi who was delivering wine together.

Xiao Chenzi took over the conversation and said, "It's my father! My father is the best and can hold his breath and catch these things in the sea!"

"What? Catch it with bare hands?"

Ying Feiyu was very surprised.

In later generations, I heard that some people carry oxygen, wear diving suits, and go into the sea to catch sea urchins.

But they simply cannot have these equipment, how can they dive to the bottom of the sea?

How big is this lung capacity?

"That's right! My father can hold his breath under the water for two quarters of an hour! He also relies on this ability to support eight of us brothers and sisters! It's just that none of us brothers and sisters inherited this skill from my father!"

Xiao Chenzi was very proud at first, but as he spoke, he laughed embarrassedly.

"These things should be valuable, right? Then your father should be very rich?"

Even if you don’t talk about the huge lobsters, fist-sized abalones are not cheap.

"Your Majesty, you don't know anything. There is a saying that goes, rely on the mountains to eat, rely on the water to eat water! Our Nanhai City is leaning against the seaside. In addition to normal crops, the most fish and shrimps in the sea are fish and shrimps! Therefore, these things are only big and worth a little money, while those small ones are not worth much at all!"

"When the sea water falls, you can pick up a lot of them by the sea. How many people can buy it for money? Just pick it up if you want to eat!"

"My father went to the business to catch those larger ones and resold them to major restaurants to exchange for some money to support us..."
