After the rebirth, I was held in my heart by the natural enemy
Chapter 91. Buy, buy, buy!
The fishing boat is not small, with a length of tens of meters. Xuan Muzhi sighed that it is an island country, and the shipbuilding industry is well developed.
The dozen or so people who went up were all stewards of big restaurants or noble families, and seeing Xuan Muzhi coming up, they couldn't help but glance at him.
"Brother, which family are you from? We are all stewards of big restaurants or some big families, which one are you to choose with us?" One of the stewards in their 30s couldn't help asking.
"I..." Xuan Muzhi didn't expect that the first batch of people who came up had backgrounds, no wonder those peddlers were waiting below.
If he is telling the truth now, why should he be beaten?Although he can be regarded as a monk now, but looking around, except for the hawkers below who are waiting to deliver the goods, the other managers of these restaurants or big families are basically monks, but their cultivation base is not high. .
Even if it's not tall, it's still taller than him. He's just a novice on the second floor of the Qi refining period.
"I...I'm the manager of Xuanjia Restaurant." Xuan Muzhi coughed lightly, encouraging himself.
"Xuanjia Restaurant? Where is it?"
"Have you never heard of it?"
"I haven't heard of it either, little brother, aren't you fooling us?"
"Brother, are you really the steward of the Xuan Family Restaurant? Where is your restaurant located?" One of the old men, whose eyes were full of vicissitudes and sophistication, asked Xuan Muzhi as he looked him up and down.
The others seemed to understand in an instant, and Xuan Muzhi's eyes became unfriendly.
"...in the East District!"
"East End!"
The crowd was shocked.
What is the East District? That is where the emperor is. Apart from the place where he lived and practiced and summoned his courtiers, there was only Sumen.
In addition, even the four major families of Berman Island live in the west area, they are the king's right-hand man, and they are also related to the Su family by marriage.
These big families and restaurants are basically located in the southern and western districts. Only the old man who spoke just now opened the restaurant in the eastern district.Of course, he is only a steward. The owner behind the scenes is very mysterious. Even the Imperial Guards of the Eastern District have acquiesced to the existence of the restaurant, which shows its power.
Everyone knows what opening a restaurant in the East District means, so the group was shocked because they firmly believed that no one would dare to tell such a lie.
Only the old man who spoke just now frowned, "East District? How is that possible! There is only one restaurant in the East District! Where are you running?"
"We are a new restaurant, and we haven't officially opened yet!" Xuan Muzhi guessed what was going on when he said the words and saw the reactions of the crowd. He thought that the East District would be a big place and no one would know about it, but he didn't expect that the East District is so big. , there is only one restaurant?
But the words have been said, and now I can only bite the bullet and continue talking.
Anyway, he will run away after buying things in a while, what can those shopkeepers in charge do to him!
Don't worry about the panic in your heart, Xuan Muzhi's face is calm and indifferent, but it makes everyone look at each other, not knowing whether it's true or not.Even the old man who spoke before hesitated.
It is impossible to judge whether what the other party said is true or not. It is okay to say if it is false. If it is true, it will offend the big shots behind.The left and right are just to buy some fresh fish, so there is no need to offend others.
The old man is very understanding of the ways of the world, and he has figured it out in a flash, with a smile on his face, "In that case, brother, let's choose first!"
Once the old man said this, other people's doubts were dispelled a lot, and they all spoke one after another.Xuan Muzhi coughed lightly, "Isn't this bad? Let's all be together..."
"Brother, you go first, you go first!"
Seeing the crowd huddling together, Xuan Muzhi stopped talking nonsense, and the old man who scraped the laver came back at some point.
After thinking about it, Xuan Muzhi was the first to go to see the fish caught.
There were indeed a lot of big fish on board, Xuan Muzhi was very happy to see it, especially when he saw a salmon.
"My lord, have you taken a fancy to this mochi fish? I'll pack it for you!" A few men on the fishing boat nearby grabbed the big fish and put it aside alone.
Xuan Muzhi didn't know the price of this fish, and wanted to ask, but saw those in charge all staring at him from the corner of his eye, afraid of showing off, he could only nod.Fortunately, with so many people around, the other party probably wouldn't dare to trick him.
"Wait!" Xuan Muzhi said after a moment of pondering.
Although it is not easy for him to ask the price, it is always necessary to cut it open to see if it is a salmon. If it is, he will not lose money on such a salmon.
"Cut it open?" The other party was taken aback. "My lord, these are all freshly caught, so freshness is guaranteed."
"It's long-winded. If I tell you to cut it open, you can cut it open. I will definitely take this one. Our restaurant is opened in the East District, and the quality must be the best. If your fish is of good quality, I will ask for more!"
"Okay!" A steward of the boat came over to say hello, "Hurry up and cut open the fish for the adults to see."
Xuan Muzhi and his group were talking just now, but the people on the boat did not come over. Now that Xuan Muzhi mentioned the Eastern District, and seeing that the manager of the Eastern District restaurant followed behind, he immediately realized that this person might be a big shot, so hurry up Come and say hello in person.
The men on the boat eat fish all the year round, and they cut open the fish quickly, removed the viscera, and presented the whole fish in front of Xuan Muzhi.
As soon as the orange fish meat was exposed, Xuan Muzhi was sure that it was salmon.Unexpectedly, there are salmon to eat in this different world, and thinking of the fat, tender and soft texture of salmon, Xuanmu's saliva almost comes out.
"Okay, how many kinds of these three... sesame cake fish?" Xuan Muzhi almost blurted out.
"We caught a lot this time, including quite a few big fish." The steward on the boat hurriedly called the man over to ask. "There are three big fish like this, and there are more than a dozen other smaller ones."
"I even..." Xuan Muzhi knew in his heart that he couldn't come here often, and he couldn't come here for a long time after lying this time, so he almost wanted to pay for everything.Then thinking of the people behind him, he hurriedly looked back. "How many, let's divide?"
"No, no, you choose first."
"You come, just leave us one or two."
"Brother, I want a big one, and the rest..." The old man from the East District restaurant hesitated and said.
"Okay!" Xuan Muzhi nodded happily.He can't ask for too much, and there are only five or six people in charge of the various families behind. In addition, the old man in the east district wants a big one, so he can keep a lot.
"Give me two for the big one, and five for the smaller one."
Everyone in the back breathed a sigh of relief.It's quite polite for this one to ask for these, and the rest is enough for them to share equally.
In fact, everyone now has a little faith in Xuan Muzhi's identity.
Although the meat of mochi fish is delicate and tender, many aristocrats love to eat it, but a family can’t afford too much. The quality of this kind of fish will decline after a long time. It is nothing more than a meal when it is transported back from the sea and served on the table.
So even if they want to buy this kind of big fish, they have to buy it separately.One of Xuanmu's mouths needs two big ones, and five smaller ones, which is already more generous than theirs.
The steward on the boat was also very happy. Although the steward who came here for the first time was young, he was definitely generous. He hurriedly sent over the two big fish and five small fish that Xuan Muzhi wanted.
They are said to be small fish, but they are not small in size. The smallest one of them weighs about ten catties, and the two big ones are really big, weighing more than tens of catties.
When the fish on the boat was ordered, someone recorded it next to it. After the waiter weighed it and recorded it, Xuanmu put the fish away with a wave of his hand.Salmon pays attention to freshness, the fresher it is, the better it tastes, and the quality will continue to decrease if it is kept outside, so it is better to put it away.
Xuan Muzhi's casual movements attracted everyone's envious eyes.Being able to take away such a big fish, this person's identity is beyond doubt!
Although ordinary stewards will have some storage utensils on their bodies, they are for convenience when purchasing and to keep them fresh, but the space will not be too large.Such a big fish can fit two at once, and the storage utensils of general managers are probably full.
Seeing this scene, the steward on the boat became more enthusiastic, and led Xuan Muzhi to look at Bi's fish.The stewards of many other families later also divided up the remaining mochi fish and bought them.
Similar to the earth, the fish species here are also very rich. As a child who grew up in an inland city, Xuan Muzhi doesn't know all about fish.But Xuan Muzhi couldn't help it, dismissed the steward, and greeted the guy who came to follow him.
"I'm too lazy to ask, you can introduce them to me one by one. I'll give you extra money later!"
The guy's eyes lit up, he nodded repeatedly, and introduced Xuan Muzhi with even more effort.
All kinds of fish have similar names to those on the earth, while others have different names.When encountering fish with the same name or looking familiar, Xuan Muzhi buys more, and buys less when encountering fish that he has never seen or eaten.
After buying and buying, I saw a big crab found in a wooden barrel not far away. Xuan Muzhi pointed at the crab, "Is this thing for sale?"
"Well, no one likes to eat this kind of food. If there is little meat, it's hard shell." The man was stunned for a moment, "We ate these ourselves or threw them back into the sea."
"Don't!" Xuan Muzhi blurted out. "Ahem... How many more of these things are there? I want them."
"You want, want these?"
"Not for sale?"
"Sell! Sell, sell!" The guy greeted a few people and moved them over.Not only crabs, but also various sea shells.
What scallops, conch, abalone, etc., there is actually a small basket of dog claw snails.
Xuan Muzhi once ate the dog claw snail. It was brought back by his brother specially for him to eat. Called a delicacy from hell.
Xuanmu Zhiqiang suppressed his joy and bought all these things.To his relief, these things are rare delicacies on earth, and they are indeed despised here and cannot be sold at all.Only a very small number of people know the delicacy of these foods, and these people are basically people who live at sea all year round.
The price of these sea shells is very cheap, and there are a lot of them, so Xuanmu City gladly put them away.In the end, I bought another big octopus before checking out and getting off the boat.After paying the bill, Xuanmu's heart was pounding.Not too expensive, but too cheap, too affordable!
The dozen or so people who went up were all stewards of big restaurants or noble families, and seeing Xuan Muzhi coming up, they couldn't help but glance at him.
"Brother, which family are you from? We are all stewards of big restaurants or some big families, which one are you to choose with us?" One of the stewards in their 30s couldn't help asking.
