When they got home, the three people who went out, including Boss Shen, all received resentful looks from the left-behind children.

Boss Shen looked innocently at the sky: What did I do?

Old man Shen was guilty, and with his friendship with those few for most of his life, how could he still not understand the peeing nature of those old guys?If in the past, when he was in the limelight, how could he hide out, sitting in the main room like a second uncle, with tea prepared, ready to have a good time.

"What expressions do you all have? Come and help me get things. You are so big and you have to make your father and mother busy?" Old man Shen turned his head and pretended to get things from the carriage.

At this time, Shen Yu's foresight was manifested, he didn't follow old man Shen and the others in the donkey cart, the ox cart was relatively slower than the donkey cart, Mu Jing deliberately slowed down again, and was still halfway on the road at this time.

Shen Yu was talking to Mu Jing about the seafood brought back by Shen Laosi, "Have you ever eaten hairtail?"

"No, what kind of fish is that?"

"It's the kind of long, flat fish. Wash it, cut it into sections, then put oil in the pan, pour the fish down and fry it until it's golden on both sides, add ginger, onion, garlic, and pepper, and take it out of the pan. Come and drink, it tastes better than chicken feet."

Mu Jing listened, feeling a little puzzled in his heart, why does it feel like he has eaten it?

"do you like eating it?"

Shen Yu nodded like a chicken pecking at rice, "I like it, not only pan-fried octopus, I also like to eat big crab, king crab, boiled oyster snails, steamed grouper, grilled eel..." As he spoke, Mu Jing You can even hear Brother Yu swallowing his saliva.

He couldn't help laughing, "You love to eat so much, I asked someone to bring some seedlings back, we will raise them ourselves, and you can eat them whenever you want in the future."

"Alas!" Shen Yu sighed, "If you can't keep them alive, the reason why seafood is called seafood is because it grows in the sea, and seawater is indispensable, and what grows in the river is called river fresh."

"How do you even know this?" Mu Jing couldn't help asking.

"I just know it." Shen Yu said confidently, "Not only do I know, I've also seen it. Do you know the ten-jin king crab?"

Mu Jing shook his head.

"It's that big?" Shen Yu gestured, "The crab legs can be three feet long. I can't say whether it tastes good, but it's really enjoyable to eat, and the meat is easy to get out."

"Also, what about the octopus? Although Nasusu looks a little scary, it's actually delicious after being stir-fried."

"There's also abalone, wild ones are the best, but I don't really get them. Sea cucumbers, too, are very nutritious, just like abalones, but I really can't eat them."

"There is also the caviar, which is very expensive. I don't think it is delicious, but it is very popular. And what kind of foie gras, do you know how much a foie gras weighs?"

Mu Jing thought for a while, when he just came back from the military camp, Mu Xue bought a big goose weighing eight catties, and stewed it to cleanse the dust. The foie gras was half the size of a palm, "It should be about five taels, anyway. No more than a catty."

"Wrong, the heavy ones weigh four or five catties, and usually two or three catties."

"Why is it so big?"

"Do you know how it was fed?"

"I don't know."

"Use a pipe to put the goose's mouth, and then feed the goose with food. Feed a lot, and don't let the goose exercise. Feed the goose many times a day. It won't take a few months. The liver will be so big, and then it can be slaughtered to take the liver. gone."

"Why would they do this?"

"Just to eat the foie gras, because the foie gras raised in this way is crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, has a delicate taste, and leaves a fragrance on the lips and teeth. If it is handled well, the fishy smell will not remain. For some people, it is absolute. Enjoy." Shen Yu shrugged, for this feeding method, he was noncommittal, neither agreed nor opposed, and could not object.

"Here we are." Shen Yu jumped off the bullock cart.

"Let's go, don't go back, I guess the food is almost ready at home." Shen Yu said, looking up towards the direction of the house, and saw Shen Laosi sitting at the gate carrying a stool.

"Hey, fourth child, are you the door god today?"

Shen Laosi threw the small stone in Shen Yu's direction, "Finally back, go to the kitchen, how did you cook the fish? Mother boiled it with water..." It was hard to say, Shen Laosi showed a smile on his face. Distorted expression.

"So, fourth child, you bought it before you figured out how to eat it?"

Shen Laosi nodded, "Everyone bought it, and I bought it too. Come on, mother said you know how to make a long fish."

Shen Yu guessed that long fish should be called hairtail.

After going to the kitchen room, the kitchen room became busy, and a fishy smell came over, Shen Jiang had already hid to the side, and the rest of them were a little numb.

"Hey, look at what we did. Let's clean it up. I didn't say I could do it yesterday. It's such a mess. What should it look like?" Shen Song said and began to wash the pots and the stove.

Mrs. Shen Liu also went to help, "It's a pity that this old and expensive seafood, I heard that it takes a month or two for us to go to the other side of the sea. It's a bad result to buy it from a long distance."

"It's not bad, sister-in-law, do you smell that it's not so fishy after cooking?"

Several people saw that Shen Yu had come back, followed by Mu Jing, "Mu Jing, here we come! Hurry up and chat with your second uncle, this kitchen is really ugly."

Fourth Shen: Feeling like your son doesn't care if he stays in the kitchen.

Although Mu Jing wanted to stay, but the whole room was full of female relatives, he couldn't disturb their cooking, so he nodded, "Yeah."

Shen Liushi and Shen Songshi were relieved when they saw Mu Jing leave. Although they all knew that Mu Jing was not like what was rumored before, sometimes they could joke with him, but that was when they were far away. It's so close, I really can't let go.

I lowered my head and sniffed it. It seemed to be like what my younger brother said, but I couldn't tell the difference.

"In this way, the salty taste will be lighter after cooking, so prepare some shredded ginger, minced garlic, dogwood sauce, scallions, and salty sauce."

"Then pour oil into the pan, fry the fish in the pan for a while, then put some ginger and garlic in it, then put cornel to sauté until fragrant, put salty sauce, if it is raw, boil it in water, if it is boiled, don't add water Alright, let's put some white wine."

Shen Yu purely used baijiu as cooking wine.

"Fry it and it will come out of the pan."

Mrs. Shen and Mrs. Shen and Liu's sisters-in-law nodded, "So it's no different from ordinary fish."

Shen Yu, "There is no difference in the first place. If it is fresh, it will be delicious if you put some sliced ​​ginger and cook it."

"Oh!" Mrs. Shen nodded knowingly, "How about the long fish?"

"the same."

Mrs. Shen knew how to make seafood, so she drove Shen Yu out. What's the point of squatting in the kitchen for a big man?

Shen Yu squatted in the corner: Why didn't you think I was a big man when you were old?

The three masters in the kitchen are very fast at cooking, and the dishes are ready in a short time. While serving the dishes on the table, Mrs. Shen directed Shen Yu, "Fifth, call your father and the others to eat."

Shen Yu felt that he had fallen out of favor a little, and was no longer his mother's favorite cub.

Anyway, today the Shen family got their wish to eat seafood, which is not considered a big meal, and some people even find it disgusting, but Shen Laosi is proud, he bought it with money.

"Okay, let's calculate how much you earned this trip?" After eating, old man Shen sat on the stool with a sword, and said to Shen Laosi, "I was thinking about you yesterday when you came back. Rest, I didn't ask you."

Fourth Shen was not afraid at all, "I must have made money."

"There are a lot of people in Lingnan, and there are merchants from all over the world. Generally speaking, the goods are easy to sell." Speaking of this, Shen Laosi's face was a little uncomfortable, "I didn't find out the situation before. All the mushrooms I bought were sold to restaurants and restaurants, and I overheard that there was a market over there, where merchants from all over the place bartered, and the Song family went there for this, and Erlang and I didn’t know this, so we suffered.”

"Fortunately, I didn't just bring mushrooms, I also brought skins, and I followed Erlang to the county to buy spinning hemp in the next town, and it sold for a good price. There was also Laowu's shiitake mushroom powder, some people in the team I like it very much, there is nothing delicious on the road, just use a spoonful of shiitake mushroom powder to cook two big bowls of soup, five cents a spoonful, guess how much I sold?"

"How much?" Shen Yu was the person involved, so he was even more curious about it.

Fourth Shen made a gesture of two, "Two two."

"So many?" Shen Yu didn't expect so many, was mushroom powder so popular in his previous life?In their era, they traveled far away for at most two or three days, and there were box lunches or instant noodle snacks on the way, so they didn’t worry about eating bad food at all.Shiitake mushroom powder is also used by the family itself, and the audience is not very wide.Didn't expect it to be so popular in ancient times?

"That's right, in the end, Erlang and I didn't have anything to eat." Shen Laosi had a smug smile on his face.

Seeing Shen Lao Si's proud look, Shen Yu suddenly had an idea, "Fourth Brother, come on, do you want to cooperate with me for a business?"

"What?"

"Do you think about spreading this shiitake powder business and making it bigger?"

Shen Lao Si patted Shen Yu on the body, "Good brother, I want to go with me, I also have this plan, I just brought a little, it's worth two taels of silver, and it doesn't take up space, if you get a car Go to Lingnan Fang City, where there are merchants traveling from south to north, they will definitely be able to sell it, and they may not be able to earn money."

Hearing Shen Laosi's swearing, Shen Yu knew that he must have thought a lot about this journey.

Shen Yu poured cold water on him, this place is not like modern times, there is such a patent, "You are so sure, you are not afraid of imitation, I have agreed, next year, not only our family will have shiitake mushrooms!"

"I know, so you know the formula, right?"

"It's very simple, and there are only four kinds of seasonings with dried mushrooms, and the taste is not too colorful. The master of Meimeizhai will definitely be able to taste it once he tastes it."

The fourth child was not in a hurry, but the third child was in a hurry, "Then what should I do? Fifth child, you have a good brain, how about giving the fourth child an idea?"

"I don't know how, if I know so much, I can only remember now."

"It's the same thing, don't need to think so much, we seize the opportunity, at least we can sell more, at worst, take some more, and sell for a hundred taels of silver is also profitable."

Speaking of money, old man Shen took out the account book, "It's time to divide the money from last month."

When it comes to money distribution, everyone obediently does it well, including Mu Jing who has no money distribution.

"Last month, apart from costs and living, there were 96 taels left, which should have been divided equally, but you were away from the fourth son, so I said before that it would be half." I earned it a few months ago, but it wasn't too bad.

"I don't need it. My daughter-in-law is pregnant, and I can't help you with anything." Fourth Shen felt a little embarrassed.

"The big head is the dried mushroom." Old man Shen explained, "You should take it."
