Going back to the old days of hunting at sea

Chapter 752: The Small Chen Village Hidden Dragons and Crouching Tigers

"The dishes are fine. There are meat, vegetables, fish and meat. They are well arranged and cooked beautifully!"

"There are several things we have never seen before, and we don't even know them!"

"Come on, come on, come back and introduce yourself to us first."

County Magistrate Xu took two big steps forward, grabbed Chen Hui's wrist in a friendly manner and walked back.

An Wenjing also hurriedly followed back.

Several of County Magistrate Xu's guests were sitting at the table, looking at the dishes with curiosity.

Seeing Chen Hui coming back, he waved and shouted, "Young man, come and introduce yourself."

"Let's talk about this fish first? This fish is very beautiful!"

"What's its name? I've never seen it in this market. Should I buy it at the dock?"

"Can we just use water and add some ginger slices to stew it?"

The only female guest today pointed at the small bowl of braised red rose grouper for each person and asked first.

"This is called a red rose grouper, a type of grouper."

"There will be only a few at the dock every year. You have to try your luck," said Chen Hui.

"This is a grouper, which is indeed quite rare."

"Which stall at the pier is better? Where did you buy this?"

Another tall and thin man standing next to the woman asked.

"I went out to sea with the fishing boat and swam into the sea to catch it myself."

As soon as Chen Hui said this, all the people who were originally looking at the fish and vegetables raised their heads and looked at him.

He looked calm and didn't look guilty at all after boasting.

I thought this was impossible, but I couldn't help but feel that he was trustworthy.

"Young man, there should be a limit to bragging."

The female customer thought Chen Hui was joking and smiled politely.

"That dish is the rich shrimp, a rare variety of mantis shrimp."

"I bought the garlic at the market, and I also caught the mantis shrimps in the sea."

Chen Hui did not refute.

He looked at the garlic shrimps and continued.

"What about this? What is this? It looks very festive. Did you catch it in the sea as well?"

The middle-aged man who had been standing at the edge and had not spoken a word pointed at the steamed tiger crab and asked.

When the tiger crab is alive, its main body is brown. It looks very special but not very good-looking.

After being steamed and turning into orange-red, it looks more like a tiger-head window paper-cut, which is very festive to look at.

“This is called Chinese tiger crab.”

"One of these was caught yesterday, and the others were found on the rocky beach while fishing."

What Chen Hui said was truthful and clear, and his expression was always neither humble nor arrogant.

"What should I do? I'm starting to trust him a little bit."

"He went out to sea and caught fish from the sea."

The female guest was a little shaken and looked at a few people and said.

"I have a little bit, too." said the tall and thin man.

Several people simultaneously looked at County Magistrate Xu who was the host.

"Why are you so surprised? Is this weird?"

"This young man's family has a fishing boat, and he is also a fisherman."

"It's reasonable for a fisherman to go out to sea and catch fish."

After County Magistrate Xu finished speaking, he couldn't help laughing.

"Okay, that doesn't really make sense, but this guy does have the ability."

"These small fish are easy to catch. Last time when I was having dinner, I brought back an octopus leg this thick and long. My mom was shocked when she saw it."

"I don't even know how he got it back."

County Magistrate Xu gestured the thickness and length of the octopus' legs.

He was very excited when talking about this matter.

"So big?! Young man, how did you catch it? Tell me about it." The female guest asked curiously.

Chen Hui is a little hungry.

From the corner of his eye, he saw An Wenyi peeking out from outside. He was obviously here to call for dinner. He simply and quickly described the process of catching the octopus.

Chen Hui said it simply, but several people still found it outrageous after listening to it.

"Amazing! I didn't expect that the small Chenjia Village could hide such a hidden talent."

The middle-aged man, who had been quiet all this time, looked Chen Hui up and down carefully.

I feel quite emotional when I say this.

"So if we want to buy fish from you, where should we find you? At the pier?" asked the female customer.

"Leave me your address and I'll deliver it to your door."

"But there are a lot of uncertainties when fishing at sea. For example, this red rose is the first time I have encountered it this year."

"If you want a specific fish, you may have to wait for a long time," said Chen Hui.

It takes a long time to wait
The other person's face was visibly dimmed.

After thinking for a while, he asked again, "Then can you catch the fish and send it to me for me to see first? If you like it, I'll buy it. If you don't like it, then don't do this?"

"Yes, I have several customers in my county who are the same." Chen Hui nodded.

County Magistrate Xu, who had been silent the whole time, suddenly said, "His customers are all like Captain Wang and Xiao Huang."

"Oh, it's them." The female guest smiled and nodded without saying anything else.

An Wenyi was getting impatient waiting outside.

He leaned out half of his body from the corner and called out softly, "Sister, brother-in-law, it's time to eat!"

Seeing that several people had noticed him, he immediately shrank behind the wall.

"What a lovely little girl!"

The female guest sighed and said to them, "Go eat quickly, don't keep her waiting."

Chen Hui said a few more polite words and told them to just get more food if they needed it.

He took An Wenjing out, patted An Wenyi's forehead and said, "Little brat, let's go, go home and eat!"

"I want my sister to lead me!"

An Wenyi said with a smile, holding An Wenjing's right hand with her two little hands.

Chen Hui walked on the outside, An Wenjing walked in the middle, and An Wenyi walked on the inside.

"Look, wife, there is a little digging here."

"This stretch of road used to be difficult for three people to walk, but today it's OK."

Chen Hui pointed to the dug mountain on the inside of the road and said.

"I said that when I walked today, I felt something was different."

An Wenjing looked inside and outside and was also very happy.

He squeezed Chen Hui's palm again and asked:

"Brother Chen Hui, County Magistrate Xu just mentioned that our customers are Brother-in-law Wang and Sister Xiulian? I always feel that he has something else in his words."

After all, after County Magistrate Xu finished speaking, the female guest's interest obviously diminished.

I was very happy to hear that the goods could be delivered to your door.

He sat down at the back without leaving any address and asked Chen Hui to deliver the goods.

"There was something else behind his words. I began to wonder if there was a conflict between them."

"I just thought about it carefully, and I think it should be a euphemism to express that the seafood I sell is very expensive."

Just buying things.

Even if the relationship is not good, it will not affect them finding the same seller.

"Well, that makes sense!"

An Wenjing nodded.

He smiled at An Wenyi who was looking at him in confusion.

The three of them returned to Lin Jiao's house together.

After lunch, Chen Hui looked at his watch and it was only half past twelve.

It was a small gathering of friends, but it also felt like a banquet.

The guests at home would not leave for at least another hour, or even longer.

"Wife, I'm going to the department store to see if the quilt and the cloth I ordered have arrived."

"After they leave, ask Aunt Hongxia to help you clean up."
