Daming Town Haiwang

Chapter 191, the shock brought by sea fish
Seeing the scene in front of them, Li Dongyang, Zhou Jing, and Zhang Mao couldn't calm down anymore, and they didn't care about the gentleman staying away from the kitchen, and walked straight to the fish cooking area.

"My lords, this is the working area, outsiders and idlers are not allowed to enter."

Aunt Wang was busy killing fish, and when she saw Li Dongyang, Zhou Jing, Zhang Mao and others coming over and affecting her and others' work, she also reminded them.

"Sorry, we're just curious, just take a look, it won't delay your work."

Li Dongyang cupped his hands to Mrs. Wang and said.

"Then you all look back, but don't stand in front of the road."

Aunt Wang looked at the clothes of the three, and then at the guards beside the three, knowing that the three were either rich or noble, so she did not dare to drive them away.

"well."

Li Dongyang nodded in agreement again and again, and then began to look carefully.

"These fish are very big. Any one of them weighs a few catties, and some big ones even weigh more than ten or tens of catties. The one that needs two people to lift it together may weigh hundreds of catties."

Zhou Jing was also watching carefully. There were fish everywhere in front of his eyes. The baskets of fish were very large and there were many kinds.

"What kind of fish are these? It's neither silver carp, grass carp, nor carp. I don't know any of them."

"If I'm not mistaken, these should be sea fish."

Li Dongyang thought for a while and said.

"Sea fish?"

Zhou Jing and Zhang Mao stared slightly in disbelief, and then took a closer look at the fish in the baskets. They were indeed not common river fish.

"My lady, these should be sea fish, right?"

Li Dongyang took out a small ingot of silver and threw it to Aunt Wang, and asked with a smile, he was naturally older than Aunt Wang, so it was appropriate to call him that.

When Aunt Wang saw the broken silver that suddenly fell into her hands, her eyes lit up, she quickly put the silver away, and said with a smile: "This lord is right, these are all sea fish, and they are all caught from the sea. sea ​​fish."

When the three of them heard this, they immediately became more energetic.

Zhou Jing thought for a while and asked quickly: "Looking at the number of sea fish here, I'm afraid there are tens of thousands of catties?"

"What is this? Just because we eat [-] catties of sea fish a day, plus Tianjin's other shipyards, cement factories, maritime colleges, etc., we will eat nearly [-] catties a day. Here comes the sea fish."

Aunt Wang smiled with a rare and strange look, and now she knows everything without saying anything after taking money from others.

"Do you want to eat [-] catties of sea fish a day?"

When Li Dongyang, Zhou Jing, and Zhang Mao heard this, they were immediately frightened by this number. One hundred thousand catties of sea fish, what is this concept?If they are stacked together, they can become a hill.

"Where do you get so many sea fish?"

Zhang Mao couldn't help but ask at this time.

"I said it all, it was caught from the sea."

Aunt Wang looked at the three of them and said, "Just go to the port of Tianjin and you will know. Every morning, the fishing boats that go out to sea will come back, and one boat can catch more than [-] catties a day. Sea fish."

"Several boats go out every day, and the sea fish that are caught can't be eaten up. Now the fish is drying and ready to be transported to other places to help the victims."

"Can a boat catch more than [-] catties of sea fish in a day?"

Li Dongyang, Zhou Jing, and Zhang Mao were dumbfounded again, as if listening to a scripture from heaven, they couldn't believe it at all.

"I've said it all, you'll know when you go to Tianjin Port Wharf in the morning, and I don't need to lie to you at all."

"All of this is thanks to Mr. Liu. It is Mr. Liu who came up with a way to go fishing at sea, so we in Tianjin can attract a large number of disaster victims. Relying on this sea fish, Tianjin has fed nearly ten people. Thousands of people."

Aunt Wang shook her head slightly. These people seemed like country bumpkins who had never seen the world.

"It seems that this penny and a catty of meat are real."

Hearing this, Zhou Jing immediately understood, and now he fully understood that a penny and a catty of meat refers to this sea fish.

A single boat at Tianjin Port can catch more than [-] catties of sea fish in a day. If there are more than a dozen fishing boats, wouldn’t it be easy to catch millions of catties of sea fish in one day?

"How many fish are there in the ocean?"

Zhou Jing is from Yangqu, Shanxi. He is considered an inlander. He knows very little about the affairs of the sea, and in this era when the sea is forbidden, he knows even less about it.

Pianfan is not allowed to enter the sea, and even fish are not allowed to enter the sea. Naturally, he does not know how rich the fishery resources are in this ocean. All he can think of is fishing in rivers and lakes, and he can't imagine it at all. This boat can catch more than [-] catties of sea fish in one day.

"Of course there are too many. There are many kinds of fish in this sea. They are big and have a high yield. We all feel sick after eating this fish."

Aunt Wang smiled and nodded and said, she was telling the truth, she fled to Tianjin earlier, and worked here in Tianjin very early, eating fish every day, every meal, and now she feels sick when she sees fish.

"Eating meat until you vomit?"

Li Dongyang, Zhou Jing, and Zhang Mao looked at each other in blank dismay.

Again, meat is extremely precious and rare in this era, and those who can eat meat every meal are really rich people, and ordinary landlords and rich people in the countryside may not be willing to eat meat every meal.

Now there are people who eat meat so much that they want to vomit, and no one believes it when they say it.

The three of them looked at this bustling open-air kitchen area again. What they saw and heard today is absolutely incredible. The impact brought by this sea fish is like a tsunami in the sea, dispelling their inherent thinking, ideas, and concepts. Wait for the impact to be fragmented.

For the source of food, for the source of meat.

In their old concept, this food should be the same as that written in the poem of compassion for farmers. Who knows that every grain of food on the plate is hard-won, and every grain is hard-won. As for meat, it is even more precious and rare. It is difficult for ordinary people to eat a meal of meat.

But now, Tianjin is actually going out to sea to fish. This ship can catch more than [-] catties of sea fish in a day, which means more than [-] catties of meat and more than [-] catties of grain.

This food, this meat seems to come too fast and too easy, so that it is unacceptable, it seems very absurd and incredible.

"Tomorrow morning, I will go to Tianjin Port Wharf to have a look in person."

Li Dongyang took a deep breath and said.

"Me too~"

Zhou Jing nodded solemnly and said.

"me too."

There was light in Zhang Mao's eyes, and he was also ready to go and see for himself.

　It should be forbidden to go fishing in the sea in the Ming Dynasty~~
