Golden Fishery

Compared with the outside world, one of the advantages of owning a fishing ground is that you can eat seafood whenever you want. There is no fishing ban, and you can always eat the freshest seafood.

Because the boss is a foodie like Qin Shiou, the fishermen usually study cooking when they have nothing to do. They have discovered that as long as the boss is in a good mood, it is not a matter of salary increase and bonus.

So no matter what guests come to the fishery, the fishermen can show their skills. Daqin Fishery has always been very particular about food.

Winnie went into the kitchen to bake pastries, and Shaq baked seaweed on the lawn in front of the door. The pieces were roasted deliciously and crispy. In addition, he went to pick the seaweed and mixed it with vinegar and oil. It looks good to eat.

There are many things that can be eaten in the sea in summer. The children would pick up sea cabbage by the sea during the day. Qin Shiou marinated it with pickled peppers, and now it can be used as a cold dish.

After putting these side dishes on the table, Qin Shiou went to take out the fried porcini mushrooms and mushrooms with pickled peppers that he had made earlier, showed them to Ouyang Hai and Mao Weilong and said with a smile: "You are lucky, this is a dish that is popular in the United States and the United States. You can’t get it in Canada, pure hometown appetizer.”

Ouyang Hai has a Michelin three-star restaurant, and he has traveled around the world before, with two top chefs by his side, so the taste is naturally delicious. But when he saw porcini mushrooms soaked in oil and shiitake mushrooms with pickled peppers, his eyes lit up immediately: "Good stuff!"

Winnie prepared the pre-dinner dessert, came up and asked with a smile, "Do you want some white wine or wine? Both dry red and dry white are available."

Ouyang Hai said decisively: "Let's drink beer! We only drink white wine and red wine on formal occasions. When we are together, it's better to drink beer!"

Qin Shiou said with a smile: "Then have beer, I like to hear Brother Hai's words. My buddies are only strong by pouring beer!"

Naturally, you can't use migrant beer such as Cordon Bleu and Budweiser to entertain Ouyang Hai. Qin Shiou took out the Tankamen malt beer that Billy sent him from New York not long ago, patted the bottle and said, "Come on, brother Hai, drink it!" this."

This beer is one of the top beers in the European and American markets, and it sells for fifty dollars a bottle in New York.

It has a great background, the secret brewing recipe comes from the Sun Temple of Queen Nefertiti in Egypt, and the brewing place is the Cambridge laboratory in England. The name comes from the queen's stepson, King Tut, full of the style of the Egyptian dynasty. Even the patterns printed on the bottle are holy cats, divine birds and the like.

Instead of glasses, Qin Shiou opened a bottle for Ouyang Hai and Mao Weilong. He drank Newfoundland Iceberg Beer, the standard fisherman's beer.

Winnie has the dishes ready.

Qin Shiou asked her what to drink, Wei Ni thought for a while and said, "I'll drink some red wine."

Speaking of red wine, Qin Shiou thought of the four small wine barrels he got from the Titanic. They must contain red wine, but he probably couldn't drink it. He didn't know the origin of the barrels, but they were covered with silver paint. With a golden lacquer appearance, it is obvious that he should be born noble.

Ouyang Hai traveled all over the world and came from a wealthy family, Qin Shiou felt that he had a much wider knowledge than himself. So I took it out for him to taste, wanting to know the origin of the four wine barrels.

Qin Shiou found the right person and saw four wine barrels. Ouyang Hai smiled and said, "Where did you get it? Antiques, this should be something from the 19th century, right? Small gold and silver lacquered wine barrels were once popular in a small number of French red wine estates in the last century, and they were considered luxurious. symbols of."

After hearing what Ouyang Hai said, Qin Shiou said strangely: "Really? I checked the information, but I couldn't find any relevant information. I only know that these four wine barrels are produced by Peterlou Manor."

This is easy to check, the words au-petrus are engraved on the barrel. This is what Château Pedroux in the Bordeaux region of France means.

Ouyang Hai nodded, and said: "Yes, it is difficult to find information about this kind of wine barrel, because it only took a short time. It was not long after it became popular among European nobles at the end of the 19th century, and it was not long before World War I .European countries poured their entire economy into war, gold and silver lacquer became precious, and there was no need to varnish wine barrels."

Mao Weilong interrupted and asked, "Are these four barrels worth anything?"

Ouyang Hai said with a smile: "Of course, if they are not imitations, one of them can sell for more than 100,000 euros at least now. At that time, there were very few wine barrels made of this kind, and only the top manors were qualified to use this kind of decoration style, and they were keen to use it." There are only some top wineries in Bordeaux’s Pommelot region that have this style... Forget it, let’s not talk about it, and it will involve a lot of things.”

Qin Shiou liked to listen to gossip the most, so he urged: "Tell me, Brother Hai, is there any story in it?"

Ouyang Hai put the wine barrels together and said: "You want to hear it, so let me try to be brief. We all know that the world's top wines generally come from the Bordeaux region of France, and Bordeaux once selected 5 red wines in 1855. can be included in the 'top' winery."

"However, this division is only for the Médoc region, and does not include the Pomelot region. However, there are many fine wines in the Pomelot region, and the leader of the winery is even more irresistible. I was convinced, so I used other methods to protest against this ranking, and the gold and silver paint buckets are the product of this background."

Qin Shiou patted the wine barrel and said, "Then shall we open this wine and have a look? It's a century-old wine."

Mao Weilong was eager to try: "Open it and try it? Top red wine can be stored for a hundred years."

Ouyang Hai smiled noncommittally, and said: "It can indeed be stored for a hundred years without deterioration, but the taste of the wine will not be very good."

He studied the wine barrels, and there was a naked man with long hair and a shawl on the base of each barrel. The man held a key in his hand and pointed to the ground. Seeing this, Ouyang Hai said: "This wine should be brewed in 1895." of."

Qin Shiou asked in surprise, "Can you see this?"

Ouyang Hai explained: "The Peterloo Manor is named after the first disciple of Jesus, St. Peter. Peter holds the key to open and close the gate of heaven, which is the image of the wine barrel. But the Peterloo Manor will be held every ten years. Change the image of Peter once, and the point pointed by the key in Peter’s hand corresponds to the year, which is the meaning of 1895.”

After hearing this, Qin Shiou shrugged his shoulders. The French nobles really know how to play, and they can play spy wars with just a drink.

Qin Shiou felt that the wine in this wine barrel would not taste very good anymore. A hundred years of aging sounds like a fork, but in fact, the taste of red wine will become very bad after being left for such a long time. It would be nice to have the taste of cold medicine.

Knowing the specific origin of the wine barrel, Qin Shiou was satisfied. He put the wine barrel in the living room as an ornament, brought red wine to Wei Ni and Liu Shuyan, and signaled that everyone can have dinner.

Ouyang Hai took a big gulp of beer, picked up a piece of roasted seaweed and put it in his mouth, but before he could chew it, he frowned, and said softly, "Hey, it's a bit weird." (To be continued)
