More than half a month later, foreign businessmen are still trading here in western Liaoning.In the market, all kinds of seafood emerge in endlessly, including edible, useful, and handicrafts processed by machinery.

In short, these foreign merchants were dazzled. Who would have thought that such a bitterly cold place could produce so many commodities, and they were good things that were not available in other places.

"What's this called, and how do you sell it?" A businessman picked up some cloth strips hung by the vendor, but they were not cloth strips and asked: "It's shriveled, with salt grains on it."

"It's called kelp, and it's edible." The peddler immediately explained, "This kind of thing is a special product of the deep sea, and ordinary people can't eat it. Look, it's dried and then pickled with salt.

It can be stored for several months in this way. If you want to eat it, you only need to soak it in water for a while, then cut it into cubes or shreds, add water and cook it, and then add an egg. Haha, it’s so delicious, I guarantee you never tasted it Pass. "

"Who said I haven't tasted it, I ate it in a restaurant a few days ago, but I didn't expect it to be that kelp."

This businessman is mainly in the restaurant business, so he is particularly sensitive to food: "This food is good, how much do you have, I plan to buy a lot."

"Looking at your noble appearance, I want to do long-term business with you. Let's do it for two hundred yuan. If you want more, I can give you a discount."

"Three stones, five hundred coins."

"At least 550 dollars, no less, or you are looking at other things."

"Okay, Sanshi first, if there are any other good things, bring them to me to see."

In another seafood market, all kinds of sea fish, shrimps, crabs and other seafood are piled up in mountains. Due to the cold weather, vendors don't have to be afraid of rotting.

"What kind of fish is this, why is it so huge?" A group of businessmen from Jizhou asked around a fish stall, "It still has such sharp teeth, my God, this one bite can't eat half a cow. "

"This is a shark, a beast of the deep sea." The fishmonger said eloquently, "You must not be captured alive unless you are a warrior, and you must not eat it unless you are a nobleman.

This shark was caught yesterday and is not the biggest.Shark's fin is an ancient delicacy, and only a few emperors have eaten it throughout the ages.

If you want to try something new, you can buy a piece of shark meat or shark fin and eat it yourself. If you want to transport it back to Jizhou, it is best to buy a live one. When the weather is cold, you can store more ice cubes and transport them to Jizhou. It was also very fresh. "

Seeing these ferocious deep-sea monsters, these inland businessmen were naturally very surprised. In addition, these sea fish were not too expensive, and they all paid for a taste.

"The whaling ship is back..." There was a yell from the pier, and then, a group of civilians walked towards the pier in an orderly manner with various knives, and a huge whale was dragged to the coast.

"What is this? Why is it bigger than a sea boat? Is this also a fish?" Looking at this [-]-foot-long fish, some newcomers were stunned.

"It's just a small whale." A guide in charge of the explanation said in time: "The giant beast in the deep sea, spraying water like a pillar, eats dozens of stones for each meal, and the huge ones are as long as hundreds of feet. If it weren't for my lord Commander, our seagoing ships in western Liaoning dare not hunt such giant beasts."

"Is it possible that General Chen is not afraid of the wrath of the gods?"

"Heh, what's the point of killing mere livestock?" The guide smiled: "Aren't cattle, sheep, pigs and dogs edible?

Why can't this sea beast die? My Liaoxi army and people respect the sky and fear ghosts and gods, but we also have to eat and shit. If the gods know our sufferings, they will naturally support us in doing so. "

"People from western Liaoning are so bold,,,,,,"

Gradually, various legends about western Liaoning began to spread.

Chapter 86

As the winter comes and the whales are pulled to the shore, the folks in the slaughterhouse are completely active.

In this cold weather, grazing and planting cannot be carried out. Except for those workers who enter the factory to work, the happiest thing is these peasants who operate various knives.

Winter is undoubtedly the best fishing season. Coupled with the purchase of enough boats in western Liaoning, the fishing industry is now one of the pillar industries in western Liaoning.

These seaside people have a little understanding of fishing and dividing sea fish. Moreover, the army provides knives, which also improves work efficiency to a certain extent.

"Things that I had never heard of when I was traveling around the world, I encountered them after I came to Western Liaoning."

Jia Xu, as the temporary person in charge of Liaoxi, has to deal with these aristocratic families and business representatives constantly.

"You have also seen it now, except for my lord, there is no one else in the world who dares to hunt and kill such a deep-sea beast.

To be honest, this fishing industry is actually quite dangerous. You may not know that about [-]% of the people who go out to sea to fish will die in the sea every time.

Most of the fishermen who came back were wounded. These deep-sea beasts are not so easy to deal with.

Bows, arrows, knives and guns can't hurt its skin. You may have heard that this whale eats tens of stones of meat in one meal. This is actually not a big deal. A huge beast may have been cultivated for hundreds of years. Hundreds of stones of meat are possible.

So, everyone, don't blame me for the high price of seafood sold in Liaoxi, there is nothing we can do about it.

You can think about how many people it takes to hunt a tiger and how much risk it takes to round up a giant bear. It is still on land or in the woods, and normal people can at least stand and run.

But in this sea, hehe, a wave can overturn a ship, and a beast can swallow more than a dozen fishermen in one bite.

Even if you have a strong bow and crossbow, when you shoot, this cunning beast will sink directly to the bottom of the sea, and the arrow will have no effect at all.

Ordinary soldiers and weapons can't harm these ferocious beasts. It is said that even the dragon king in the deep sea can't do anything about these ferocious beasts.

Alas, that is my lord, he learned the tricks of hunting these deep-sea beasts through some channels, so he has to sail the boat to sea himself.

There is a saying that if a gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall, if he enters the sea, he will be in danger of dying at any time. My lord is also very helpless. "

In order to be able to fool this group of people, Chen Feng brought out the theory of ghosts and gods. Jia Xu's eloquence is already good, plus such an exaggeration, and at the same time there is a whale carcass next to him, these people can't believe it. Disaster.

"Yeah, yeah, I wait for people who are not familiar with water skills to stand still on the boat. Even if you are a good player who is familiar with water skills, once you fall into the sea, I'm afraid you won't be able to last long."

Mi Zhu, as an old customer of Liaoxi, naturally had to cooperate with Jia Xu: "Some boats can't withstand the beating of the waves, and they may fall apart after a few days at sea, so this fishing industry is really dangerous."

"Yes, yes, look at that ferocious beast, with such a huge physique, this strike is more than a thousand pounds of force."

Some businessmen communicated with each other. Most of their knowledge of the sea comes from hearsay. Before they have seen the real sea, other people's rumors are always so convincing.

"The sharks I saw this morning, those teeth, my God, I've never seen such a big tooth. It is said that if such a beast bites down, even a cow will be bitten in two."

"Ha, what are sharks? It is said that they are just ordinary guards in the Deep Sea Dragon Palace. General Chen once captured the Dragon King's Prime Minister Turtle. Guess how big it is.

It’s just the tortoise shell, at least three or four people can hold it hand in hand. Later, General Chen didn’t dare to offend the Dragon King too much. After he treated Prime Minister Turtle politely, he sent him back to the Dragon Palace. I saw General Chen send Prime Minister Turtle away with my own eyes. . "

"It turns out that this rumor is true. I thought it was someone else's nonsense."

"Well, Prime Minister Turtle's status is not low enough to kill indiscriminately. As for the shrimp soldiers and crab generals in the Dragon Palace, after General Chen went out to sea, a whole network of giant shrimp and crabs would be brought back every few days.

How can there be such big shrimps and crabs in the rivers? Those are the shrimp soldiers and crab generals in the Dragon Palace. If you don’t believe me, you can go and have a look.

Tsk tsk, I was bleeding from them. Fortunately, General Chen sealed their mana and beat them back to their original form. "

,,,,,,

One after another, true and false rumors began to circulate among the merchants, some of them heard it, and some saw it themselves.

Anyway, the fishing industry in western Liaoning had left a deep impression on them, and at the same time, these businessmen were also in awe of Chen Feng.

After all, not everyone can challenge the Dragon King. Although they have never seen the Dragon King, they have heard many legends about the Dragon King since they were young.

Moreover, Chen Feng also caught this deep-sea beast, and there are so many shrimp soldiers and crab generals, they have no reason not to believe it.
