I bring my game account back to ancient times to do business

Chapter 98 Crucian carp breast

He looked at the paper sign posted on the wall, pretending to be reading the recipe, and felt very puzzled. As an old man, he knew Meng Shaoheng's temper to some extent.

Even though Meng Shaoheng did not do his job all day long, loved to travel around and show off, he had none of those bad habits. In his seventeen years of life, this boy had never looked at any woman except his mother and sister.

If he hadn't looked at other men directly, Meng Renfu would have thought that his son had some kind of Longyang talent!

"Sir, have you decided what you want to eat?"

Qiao Yun wiped the iron plate with a clean rag. When she saw Meng Renfu staring at the menu on the wall for a long time, she couldn't help but give a reminder.

"Hmm..." Meng Renfu was called out, and then he started to pay attention to what was written on the menu. After a brief study, he decided on the dish he wanted to eat. "Here... a bowl of Fenqing, and a portion of scallion-flavored crucian carp.

breast."

"Okay!"

Qiao Yun readily agreed and took out a chilled crucian carp from the ice basin behind the counter: "What do you think of this one?"

The crushed ice in the ice basin later was obtained from the game. It was a large wooden basin filled with crushed ice. She took the ice cubes from the ice cellar and asked someone to dig them out bit by bit, but it was a lot of trouble.

Magistrate Meng Meng looked at the crucian carp, and suddenly he couldn't even care about his demeanor and reserve. His eyes widened and he sighed: "My dear mother, this is the first time I have seen such a big crucian carp!"

A wild carp weighs one or two pounds, but what Qiao Yun has in her hands is a crucian carp that weighs four pounds or two! This is a size that is not necessarily available even after modern breeding standards!

Qiao Yun smiled and said: "I got up early this morning and went to the river to fish! It's big enough. I can't bear to sell it after a day. You are different. You are the county magistrate! No problem, I will make this one for you."

She didn’t go to the river to fish, she’s not a fisherman!

There is also fishing in the game, but whether it is the fish caught in the wild fishing spots or the fish sold by the river fish merchant, the sizes are common data of wild individuals. The fish she sells are wholesale directly from the river fish merchant at low prices.

of.

However, the fish raised in the fish pond in my manor are different. I don’t know if it is because the feed quality is too high and there are no natural enemies. The fish are extremely large, including four kilograms of crucian carp, twenty-eight kilograms of carp, and sixty kilograms of carp.

Perch, eighty pounds of silver carp!

These fish, which mature in thirty hours, are as tall as they would have been in the wild for ten years.

She didn't dare to sell these behemoths. They were too rare and could easily cause trouble.

While thinking about it, she soaked the fish in the usual warm water, and then started to remove the fish belly meat after she became less hands-on.

Meng Renfu was extremely surprised. How could this girl know that he was the county magistrate? The round-collared robe he wore was the most sparse and ordinary gray-green color, and he was not wearing an official hat. How did she recognize him?

Although he was confused, but seeing Qiao Yun handling the fish seriously, he decided to ask again later.

Crucian carp has a lot of spines. In addition to the main spines that support the body, there are also many random spines and broken spines. They are not only very small, but also irregularly distributed. It is very troublesome to eat. If you are not careful, you will get pricked in the mouth, and there is nothing to eat.

In previous lives, when their family ate crucian carp, they usually stewed it with tofu. After simmering a milky white soup, they discarded the fish and ate the tofu soup.

But Qiao Yun is different. She has developed many new ways to play the game since she got the game package.

Qiao Yun held the fish knife while removing the tenderest fish belly meat from the big crucian carp, and said silently in her heart: "Collect the crucian carp bones!"

The entire skeleton of a crucian carp, including the scattered small spines, lay quietly in her backpack.

Qiao Yun used the back of her knife to open the belly of the fish. Sure enough, none of the fish bones inside were gone, and the whole crucian carp turned into a boneless fish.

How convenient!

With a smile on her face, Qiao Yun simply marinated the fish belly with ginger juice, rice wine and scallions, then fried it in a pan. She put the rest of the fish back into the ice basin.

Meng Renfu couldn't help but ask: "Why don't you cook the remaining fish and meat together?"

Qiao Yun held long wooden chopsticks while flipping the fish pieces in the pan, and said: "I often eat crucian carp meat. Only this fish belly meat is the tenderest and is worthy of being included in the dish."

"What about the other fish?" Meng Renfu opened his mouth, wouldn't he just throw it away?

"Keep the stew and drink it at home, hehe." Qiao Yun smiled. The fish in the pot had been fried again. She picked up the fish belly with a fishnet and put it aside to control the oil. She started another pot and poured it in after it was heated.

Add a spoonful of oil, add scallions, wine, soy sauce and other seven seasonings, as well as stock, to get a thick soup with a rich onion aroma. Add the fried fish and bring it to a boil before serving it on a plate.

"Your scallion-flavored crucian carp breast!" Qiao Yun put the food and wine on the counter.

"Smell the aroma of wine!" Meng Renfu brought the plate in front of him and couldn't help but take a deep breath intoxicated.

He loves fish the most!

The fish weighing one pound or two has more tender belly meat than other crucian carp, but the price remains the same. Such a full plate only costs five cents, which is a good deal, a great deal!

Meng Renfu picked up a small piece of fish with chopsticks and put it into his mouth.

Such tender, fresh and fragrant fish!

He held back the gasp of admiration that came to his mouth, narrowed his eyes and savored the fish meat in his mouth.

There are no thorns!

Could it be that this little girl carefully picked out the fish bones? This is too careful! This business is not good and cannot be tolerated!

The clear soup buns here are also so cheap. If you can order a bowl and a portion of crucian carp breast, and cover it on the dough yourself, then this bowl of fish maw buns only costs seven cents, which is not as expensive as the ten cents in Ding Shi Ji.

Is the fish maw soup cake that costs five cents a bowl delicious?

While eating, Meng Renfu suddenly thought, was his son conquered by her craftsmanship?

It seems... is this possible?

By the way, there is one more question I almost forgot to ask.

"How do you know I am the county magistrate?"

Qiao Yun said calmly: "The belt on your waist is made of silver. Only those of rank seven and above can use this."

"Not bad, not bad! Have you studied? Have you studied?" Meng Renfu nodded while eating. For most people, the belt is a very common functional belt. It can be used to hang Tang knives and daggers, or fans and counting bags.

Very practical. You can identify him just by wearing the belt. This little girl is not easy!

"It's true that I never went to school. I just learned a few words from my mother-in-law's teachings. I can recognize and write them. I'm not blind." Qiao Yun shook her head, "I just read some of the books collected in the miscellaneous studies section."

"Oh? What books have you read?" Meng Renfu looked at her with interest, as if he wanted to get to the bottom of it.

Why isn’t this over yet!

Qiao Yun grinned inwardly.

If ordinary people asked like this to check their household registration, she would definitely ignore it. But this was a guest, a county magistrate, and Meng Shaoqing's father, so she couldn't lose face.

She has indeed never read the Four Books and Five Classics, but she has indeed read a lot of ancient books in classical Chinese.

Qiao Yun counted with her fingers: "The Classic of Mountains and Seas, Three Hundred Poems, The Analects of Confucius, Lu's Spring and Autumn Annals, Shishuo Xinyu, Sou Shen Ji...that seems to be it."

In fact, there are also many works such as "Tokyo Menghua Lu" and "Sanyan Erpai". She has read the most secular novels from the Ming Dynasty. However, these are all books written after the Tang Dynasty and cannot be shared with others.

"It's rare! It's rare! Could it be that the words on the wall were also written by You?" Meng Renfu sighed repeatedly and kept nodding.

The daughters of these merchants know how to study hard and make progress, and they are much better than their own sons who only spend money all day long!

He originally expected that such lowly merchant women must be full of copper stench and value profit over justice. Even after listening to his wife and daughter's words, he could not get around the stereotype in his mind. As a result, he got a piece of crucian carp breast.

My favorability towards the little girl in front of me, who is both literate, sensible and neither humble nor overbearing, has skyrocketed.
