Small Landlords of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 8 013. Seafood Dinner
"This is absolutely impossible. How can this place be as big as 1 Yizhous? My brother-in-law, your words are becoming increasingly unreliable."

Zhao Feng didn't believe Wang Hao's words at all, even Zhao Yu didn't believe it. What Wang Hao said was obviously nonsense.

"I know you don't believe me and I can't explain it clearly, I can only tell you to start from here,

Sail along the southeastern south coast and reach Liaodong, Baekje, and Yamatai.

If you sail along the southwest coast, you will arrive at Yizhou first, then Qingzhou, and then Xuzhou.
There are Jingzhou and Jiaozhou in the back, as well as Nanyue and many other places outside the Fanwai. How big do you think this sea area is? "

Wang Hao saw that King Kong had already run to the beach and caught a big crab,

He hurriedly ran over to bring the big crab, King Kong was also a foodie, he had already swallowed several crabs by himself.

When Wang Hao saw Xiao Hei and the others, he also ran over and rushed to put the crabs into the space warehouse.

King Kong's family are big foodies, so Wang Hao can't rest assured that he will be eaten by them if he is not careful.

"Brother, bring a few big pots, we can get some salt here..."

If we were to say what was the most expensive thing in the Han Dynasty, it would have to be something like salt. One tael of silver cost just over a pound.
Poor people can't eat for a year, a few delicious meals,

Just because there is no salt, Wang Hao really doesn’t understand,

Don't the people by the sea know how to make salt? Haven't they tried such a simple thing?

All dynasties have always treated salt as a material such as copper and iron. It was the same in the Qing government, and there was also the position of salt Cao.

"There's salt here and there..."

Wang Hao roughly explained the method of cooking salt, regardless of whether Zhao Feng understood it or not,

Before Zhao Feng finished speaking, Wang Hao turned around and ran away.

The sea water without a trace of pollution is crystal clear, and under the blowing of the sea breeze, it looks like pieces of blue crystals.
Since there was no shark blocking net, Wang Hao did not dare to swim out to the depths.
But in the knee-deep water, fish can be seen everywhere,

Wang Hao took out a spear from the farm warehouse, which Wang Hao had snatched from a group of bandits. The tip of the spear was not rusted and could be used as a harpoon.

Catching fish with a harpoon requires certain skills, although you can see swimming fish from the surface of the water,
But there are not many people who can really use a harpoon to stab a fish accurately.
This is purely a matter of perspective. After the line of sight penetrates the water, the perspective also changes.

Wang Hao's wild survival happened to have such a lesson, so he was able to catch sea fish in the sea.

"Husband, come here quickly, there are a lot of bugs here..."

Hearing Zhao Yu's voice, Wang Hao quickly ran back holding the spear,
Seeing Zhao Yu taking Niuniu and Lingling squatting aside, at this moment, the Jingang family was grabbing the sea cucumbers under the stone and eating them with intoxicating expressions.

"It's wasted again by these foodies, Xiao Yu, don't be afraid that this is a sea cucumber, it tastes very..."

Only now did Wang Hao think of this thing, turned around and pried up a stone next to him,
Sure enough, there were several sea cucumbers in the pit above. Wang Hao touched these sea cucumbers and continued to look for other stones.

Zhao Feng brought two cauldrons from the carriage, and Wang Hao asked him to start boiling with half the pot of water, while Wang Hao continued to look for seafood to prepare dinner,

After the water was boiled dry, leaving behind a handful of snow-white salt, at first Zhao Feng still didn't believe it was salt.

Because they used to eat mineral salt, the slightly yellowed salt contained nitrate,
Every time you cook, wrap it in linen and strain it, then use brine as table salt.
Zhao Feng had never seen snow-white salt before, after tasting the taste,

Zhao Feng believed Wang Hao's words, and left only one pot for dinner, and Zhao Feng decided to use the remaining pot to burn salt.

Wang Hao caught a hairtail fish in the rocks on the beach, and then speared the small yellow croaker for several days.
With a pile of scallops and sea crabs, as well as prawns caught in a basket, the seafood tonight can be described as extremely rich.

Although there is no such thing as soy sauce, but ginger, chili juice and some salt,
This can also be used as a condiment, after Wang Hao's prawns are out of the oven,

The eyes of Zhao Yu and the two girls never left the dish.

"Eat more if you like, but you can't be full at once, there are still many delicacies waiting for you..."

Following Wang Hao's example, Zhao Yu peeled off the shrimp shells, dipped some chili juice in it, and put it in his mouth.

Even though she was used to the taste of chili, she was still choked to tears by the spicy taste of ginger.

"Lingling is good, we won't steal it, that must be bad, otherwise Sister Yu won't shed tears..."

Niuniu pulled Lingling to sit on the stone, and the two watched Zhao Yu choke up tears and made sarcastic remarks.

"Try this and it might taste better."

There is no tomato juice, but there are a lot of tomatoes, Wang Hao picked up a prawn, dipped some tomato juice and handed it to Zhao Yu,

Zhao Yu didn't refuse when Wang Hao handed it to him. He closed his eyes and wanted to swallow it in one gulp to avoid choking on the pepper.

But this time the feeling was different, a very fresh feeling rushed from the throat to the forehead, as if eating dragon heart and phoenix liver.

Once there is the first time, there will be the second time. What kind of lady, what are the three obediences and four virtues, are all left behind by Zhao Yu,
Zhao Yu had a plate of cut tomato slices placed in front of him, and he kept grabbing the prawns in the basin with his right hand.

The shrimp shells were all on the ground, and Niuniu and Lingling were drooling as they watched.

"The two girls are still pretending to be serious. If you want to eat yourself, come and peel the shells. My sister has no time to peel them for you..."

Lingling took the prawns handed over by Zhao Yu, and became addicted after eating one.
The two sisters hid next to Zhao Yu and learned to peel shrimps. However, the skill of peeling shrimps cannot be learned in a day.

Most of the shrimp shells were peeled off including the heads and tails. Fortunately, Teddy was still there, and he never refused to come to these leftovers.

"Which one of you wants to eat crabs?"

Wang Hao fished out a steamed big crab, but Zhao Yu and the others shook their heads repeatedly.
The crabs did not look edible, so Wang Hao took out a chopstick and smashed open the crab shell, revealing the golden crab roe inside.
Although the crabs in summer are not fat and there are not many crab roe, but the tempting fragrance wafts out, and the three of them looked at Wang Hao again.

Lingling took the crab claws that Wang Hao peeled. Ever since she tasted the taste of crabs, Lingling has no interest in the prawns on the plate.

I also imitated Wang Hao, grabbed a chopstick, and kept tapping the crabs on my plate, sometimes even swallowing the crab shells.

There are hairtail, small yellow croaker, scallop and a series of sea fish in the back. When the four of them are full, Zhao Feng is still burning salt over there.

It wasn't until after dark that Zhao Feng realized that no one called him to dinner today.
Zhao Feng stood up and walked to Wang Hao's side. The four of Wang Hao were lying on the beach and blowing the sea breeze.

Except for the fish, there was a little left in the pot, which was almost wiped out. The few big crabs were specially left for him by Wang Hao.

As for the other leftovers, they have been wiped out by Teddy and King Kong's family long ago,

The King Kong family is having a great time playing on the beach at the moment, and even Teddy has joined the party.

"Teddy, if you don't go back to guard the car, be careful that I will break your dogleg..."

Holding the dinner, Zhao Feng came over and yelled at Teddy. Teddy asked about the taste of fish, and ran towards Zhao Feng.

Wang Hao and Zhao Yu looked at each other and smiled on the beach, and the afterglow of the setting sun shone on their bodies. This scene had an indescribable warmth.

After three days of feasting on seafood, everyone reluctantly left the beach...
