Chapter 45 The price is mentioned again
What are you thinking? Mouse Banner is a solitary fish, and they seldom get together except to raise their offspring. Xu Fang obviously knew the habits of many Mouse Banner, and immediately said when he saw everyone's eagerness.
I only know that Mouse Ban is old and valuable. Xiang Hui said quietly.
Xiang Yang smiled and explained, It's a small puddle less than one foot deep, and there are no fish in it. Xiang Yang knew that Xiang Hui would never give up if he didn't say this.
Alas! Xiang Hui sighed after hearing this, Mouse spots are becoming less and less common now, unlike when I was a child, when I caught them, I was picky eater and didn't like to eat them.
After hearing Xiang Hui's words, everyone's hearts were quite heavy.
This is overfishing.
The price of high-end goods such as mouse spots has been rising every year. Two years ago, it was only 800 or 900 yuan a catty. Last year, it was less than 1,000 yuan. Both are still priceless.
The more the price increases, the more fishermen catch, the less they catch, the less they catch, the higher the price, and the higher the price, the more fishermen catch more, creating a vicious circle invisibly.
So we can't keep fishing in a sea. If we want sustainable development, we have to go out and open up deeper fishing grounds in farther places. Xiang Yang couldn't help but sighed again.
Yes, let's follow the captain to the big fish farm to catch big fish, fish bigger than the boat. Xiang Chen laughed.
Xiang Yang rolled his eyes and ignored this.
A fish bigger than a boat, you want to hunt whales?
Xiang Yang didn't want to talk to him, but he didn't expect the other crew members to blow it up for Xiang Yang with a look of deep opinion.
In the end, even Xu Fang couldn't help but said: The captain is indeed the most powerful captain I've ever seen. He caught puffer fish the first time he went out to sea, and he can find rare seafood such as rat spots in the sea.
Xiang Yang was so frightened by the nasty words of a group of old men that he fled in a hurry.
Back home, Xiang Yang put Mouse Ban down first.
Ban Xiangyang, a mouse so big, would definitely be reluctant to eat it, but he can reward himself with a few crabs he caught.
The crabs that Xiang Yang caught today were not all swimming crabs, but there were also two horse-faced crabs weighing three or two.
Horse-faced crab is actually its scientific name. The residents of the sea have called this crab from generation to generation because they look like a horse-faced crab. In fact, its real name should be Chinese tiger head crab.
The Chinese tiger head crab has a strange shape and bright color. The carapace is round, indicating that there are granular bulges. The front and middle parts are in the shape of dark purple round spots. It looks like a horse face.
This kind of crab has much more meat than ordinary swimming crabs, but the price is not much more expensive than swimming crabs. The market price of three taels of tiger head crabs is about a hundred yuan a catty, and it is only fifty or sixty yuan a catty if they are recycled. catty look.
The main reason is that the gills of the Chinese tiger head crab are relatively large, which causes the crab meat in the crab shell to have a strong fishy smell.
Some people who often eat seafood have a big mouth. When they eat seafood, they don’t put a lot of conditioning to remove the fishy smell like ordinary people eat seafood. They like to taste the original flavor of seafood. This is tiger The most important reason why the price of the head crab is big and meaty, but the price is still not going up.
Another point is that the claws of tiger crabs are smaller than those of normal portunus. Those who love to eat crab claws are not too cold about tiger crabs. If not for the rapid economic development of the motherland in recent years, more and more people eat seafood. The more you eat seafood, the more you pay less attention than before, and the price of tiger head crab will only be lower.
But Xiang Yang loves to eat tiger head crabs, because Xiang Yang grew up by the sea and doesn’t care about the original taste of so-called seafood. After removing the fishy smell with ginger, the full shell of the tiger head crabs is silky and delicious. It is called a masterpiece in the world.
First use a brush to dry and clean the tiger head crab.
Use ginger, oil, egg whites, etc. to make a simple soup, and then put the tiger head crab in the soup and cook it. Within five minutes, the unique aroma of crabs will fill the whole room.
At this time, the tiger head crab is ready to eat.
Xiang Yang first broke off the red tiger head crab shell, removed the gills on both sides, then picked out the crab's heart with a knife and threw it away, and finally removed a complete tiger head crab from the middle. Cut in half and dip the rest of the crab meat into the soup.
One bite scared away, his tongue was fresh, and Xiang Yang's eyes narrowed because of the delicious taste.
In fact, this is quite normal. Tiger head crab is good for everything except the fishy smell. It combines fragrance, freshness and sweetness. It is a seafood popular with many ordinary consumers.
I heard that top chefs in some big hotels are able to remove the fishy smell from tiger head crabs without destroying the original taste. Of course, Xiang Yang had only heard about it, so he didn't know if it was true.
After eating two tiger head crabs, Xiang Yang burped in satisfaction, took out his mobile phone and contacted Boss Li, wanting to ask Boss Li if he would accept the mouse spot.
Hey, Brother Xiang! What good news did you think of Brother Chao this time? The batch of puffer fish transported to Boss Li's hotel was almost booked before it started selling, and Boss Li's reputation had already spread. the whole circle.
In the past two days, Boss Li's phone has almost been broken by someone. If you want to order a table of wild puffer fish, money may not be easy to use, and you have to have a certain face.
Boss Li over the phone is always in good spirits on happy occasions, and he speaks in a high-spirited manner.
Mr. Li, do you accept rat spots in your hotel? Xiang Yang asked.
Mouse spot? Boss Li's voice instantly increased a few decibels, Yes, of course, how many catties do you have, brother?
Xiang Yang: .
Boss Li was disappointed when he heard Xiang Yang said that only one mouse spot was caught, and his voice became weak.
But when Xiang Yang said that the mouse spot that he caught was half a meter long and weighed nearly 20 kilograms, Boss Li became excited again, Raise it well, brother Xiang, you must help me raise that mouse spot well. Tonight, no, I will send someone to you right now, this rat spot must be raised for me.
Xiang Yang glanced at the mouse Ban that was slowly swimming in the big wooden basin, Don't worry, you're alive and well!
That's good, that's good. Boss Li heaved a sigh of relief when he heard Xiang Yang say this, Brother, I will give you a thousand and five catties for this mouse spot just like puffer fish. This best product must be kept for me.
Isn't it only sold in the mouse spot market for about 1,200 yuan a catty? Mr. Li, you charge 1,500 yuan? Xiang Yang asked suspiciously.
I don't even look at two taels of crabs. Can the price of three taels of crabs be the same as that of four taels of crabs? Boss Li said with a smile, Mouse spots on the market are generally three to six kilograms. More than six kilograms can adapt to the deep sea of 40 meters, and it becomes not so easy to catch, so the price must be mentioned again.”
