I am Da Song

Under the water, there is no phenomenon such as light refraction. Just insert the harpoon directly at the lobster, and you can hit it.

And the secret is also very simple, only pay attention to a fast word.

Because the harpoon is specially designed for the underwater environment, it has a dense circle of thorns. As long as it is stabbed in the general direction, so many forked thorns can always touch the prey that hits it.

So Zhao Huan stabbed hard and hit a prawn more than one foot long.As for whether it was the one selected at the beginning?
At this moment, the lobsters were in a mess, and no one could see the situation clearly.But Zhao Huan firmly believed that this was the one he had chosen!
The Imperial City Siqin officer on the side immediately supported Zhao Huan's arm and sent him to the surface of the water.

Zhao Huan changed his tone, immediately raised the harpoon, displayed the huge lobster in the air, and shouted excitedly.

Sure enough, I personally fished and hunted, and the happiness brought by the harvest was irresistible to everyone.

Even though Zhao Huangui is the son of heaven and is rich all over the world, he is still full of joy of harvest when he personally hunts a huge lobster.

Tang Kuo Huier was born in Jurchen, and she knows the excitement of men hunting best.

Just boasting to the prey is enough!
This is more effective than flattering a hundred times and serving Cheng Huan all night.

So Tang Kuo Huier immediately praised: "What a big lobster, I'm afraid it's two feet long! I've never seen such a plump seafood. The officials will call it ashore. It weighs at least ten catties!"

Although he knew that the other party was flattering, Zhao Huan was still happy and excited.

This is a lobster weighing nearly ten catties. Many people have never seen it, let alone caught it.

Tang Kuohui'er happily walked up to Zhao Huan with the wooden bucket, put the lobster into the bucket, and said with a smile: "I'll help the officials carry it, let me take a good look at what the lobster looks like just caught."

Zhao Huan was in a good mood, and said: "Then this one is for you, as a reward for carrying it for me. I'll go down and catch a few more."

"Official, I just picked up a living sea cucumber at the beach, you can pay attention to the bottom of the water, there may be sea cucumbers."

Zhao Huan nodded, and then got into the water again.

Sea cucumbers are relatively common at the seaside, and Zhao Huan's descendants can often pick them up when they go to the sea.

Nowadays, the underwater aquatic products are more abundant, and soon he saw a sea cucumber lying motionless on the sand on the bottom of the sea, which was about the size of a palm.

The sea cucumber moved slowly, he hit it easily and brought it back to the surface of the sea.

Swimming in the sea was rather tiring. After only half an hour, Zhao Huan felt exhausted and hungry.

So he got out of the sea, handed the harpoon to the side officer, and then walked to Tang Kuo Hui'er and asked, "How is my catch?"

Tang Kuo Huier said happily: "Guys, you caught two lobsters, three sea cucumbers, six abalones, one big and five small ones, and three fat crabs."

Zhao Huan nodded in satisfaction. The big head was naturally a lobster, and two of them added up to more than ten catties, but if the lobster head was removed, the meat would be less.The others add up to an estimated four or five catties.

Not a lot, but definitely a lot.

It reminded Zhao Huan of a classic report full of the characteristics of the times in later generations.

It is a newspaper, which tells the story of the people living near Yangcheng Lake during the Anti-Japanese War. They had no food and rice to eat, and they had to eat Yangcheng Lake hairy crabs to satisfy their hunger.

It has been a tradition in the Central Plains for thousands of years to rely on the mountains to eat the mountains, and to rely on the sea to eat the sea.

The sea has indeed brought a lot of wealth to the nearby people.

It's just obvious that because of inconvenient transportation, the proportion of people in the Song Dynasty who go to the seaside to catch fish is still too small.

Zhao Huan wanted to see the situation of the others and learn about the harvest, so he shouted to the remaining two women: "Take what you picked up and take a look."

But who would have thought that the two women had already gotten out of the fun, waved their hands and shouted: "Official, please fire. Let's dig for a while, and we will go over after you light up the fire."

These two women are really here to play!
Zhao Huan waved his hand helplessly, and said to Wu Ge: "Then light up the fire, let the imperial chef prepare the seasoning."

Although he wanted to be self-reliant, Zhao Huan didn't really count on those two women. One of them didn't touch Yang Chunshui, and the other only took the most precious vermilion pen in the world every day.Counting on the two of them to cook, I am afraid that this table of delicious food will be wasted.

Under the command of Zhao Huan, the imperial servants set up a bonfire with a clay pot hanging on it.

Then a hearth was piled up with stones on the side. This is the special skill of the army. Soon the hearth was paved, the bottom was lit, and a natural stone slab about two inches thick was laid on top.

High-end ingredients often only require the simplest cooking methods!
This is a classic line that Zhao Huan will never forget.

Therefore, Zhao Huan planned to use the simplest cooking method to deal with these freshly caught seafood.

Crabs, lobsters, abalones, and sea cucumbers are all steamed, and what you eat is the original umami taste of seafood.

Clams, mussels, razor clams and conch are all boiled in water, especially after the conch is cooked, the conch meat is picked out with a bamboo stick, which is a protein comparable to the size of a fist.

After being boiled in water, its meat is softened, moderately hard, fresh and chewy, dipped in scallions, ginger slices, ginger juice, white vinegar, and mustard, it is full of flavor, and it is full of meat in one bite Happiness.

Oysters, squid, sea urchins, and starfish are all charcoal-grilled and covered with a layer of garlic. The taste is simply a classic that has been passed down for thousands of years.

The bonfire was lit up, and the two women who had had fun at the beach finally came back, both of them carrying a bucket full of harvest.

Tang Yi is careful, so she filled a wooden barrel with a lot of oysters and snails, as well as bits and pieces of small sea cucumbers and mantis shrimp (pipi shrimp).I feel that I don't need to buy any more ingredients. She can directly make a pot of hearty seafood with this bucket.

But Yanying is more active, her bucket is full of crabs, big and small, and there are two living octopuses stretching their claws in the bucket.Mixed with some small shells and small starfish.

After putting them together, Yan Ying said melancholy: "Why is this happening? I always aimed at these crabs when I caught them. They look very big. Every time I see that head, I am very excited. Why now? Put together, it looks like most of them are small?"

Zhao Huan said with a smile: "This is the normal state of rushing to the sea, let's release those little ones. Let's see how much we can gain from this trip to the sea."

Zhao Jin offered to help and put all the ingredients into the prepared pot.

Zhao Huan watched from the side, and felt that this was considered a family of five. Although there were three women, the productivity and food intake of these three women were slightly equal to one woman plus two children.

Therefore, it can be roughly inferred how much income a family of five in the Song Dynasty had from fishing, as well as the food and clothing of the family.
