Going back to the old days of hunting at sea

Chapter 811: The bolder you are, the more productive you are. Just sell it at this price!
"Hey, is there anyone who wants a fish that looks like this?"

"It's quite big, but I don't know if it tastes good."

The mother-in-law looked at the naked-breasted eel with disgust.

Chen Hui could see that this person was a face lover.

He fished the conches out from the side and handed them to her after the water had drained out.

Shunkou introduced:
"This one looks good. It's much better than the coconut snail last time."

"If you like flower arrangement, don't cut off this part of your buttocks."

"It will look nice if you put one or two flowers in it when the time comes to put it on the wall."

The conch is an elongated sea snail.

The texture on the shell gradually unfolds from bottom to top.

Finally, at the screw mouth, a finishing touch similar to a phoenix feather is formed.

The mother-in-law took it in her hands and looked at it, and couldn't suppress a smile on her face.

He nodded and exclaimed: "Beautiful! Beautiful! This is really beautiful."

"This one looks good too."

Chen Hui gave her another one, which was slightly smaller.

The mother-in-law handed the one in her hand to Li Yanhong, and then took the new one to look at.

I was surprised to find that the patterns of these two snails are not exactly the same.

The slightly smaller one has a more obvious alternation between light and dark colors.

“The texture of the conch is similar, but not exactly the same.”

“The two snails found this time are of very good quality.”

"The pattern on the shell is continuous, without any breaks or misalignments," said Chen Hui.

"Will there be broken or misaligned patterns? How are they broken? How are they misaligned?" asked the mother-in-law, looking at the conch in her hand.

“Not all conchs grow this well.”

"If the quality is poor, the texture will be disconnected in the middle, and there will be no connection between the top and the bottom."

“Some of them are connected, but they are misaligned.”

"Like this one, it might move all the way over, forming a dislocated pattern."

"The conches with broken or misaligned patterns are of the second-rate quality and are much cheaper."

Chen Hui pointed to a pattern on the conch and explained it in detail.

The same goods are in hand.

Selling to different people requires different statements.

This will greatly affect the price of the goods.

Li Yanhong's mother-in-law was obviously more interested in the conch shell.

The value of this snail lies in its shell.

Although the meat of conch is also delicious.

But this was an extra gain for her, so Chen Hui didn't say much.

"Oh, so that's how it's divided."

"How much do these two cost? Five hundred?" asked the mother-in-law.

The last time Wang Xianzhi bought crabs he spent five hundred yuan.

Chen Hui praised this item so highly today that she felt that Chen Hui was going to sell it at a very high price.

"If you want both, three hundred will be enough." Chen Hui said.

This price is much lower than expected.

My mother-in-law smiled with relief.

He took out some money from his bag and gave it to Chen Hui, asking him to help get the snail meat out.

I specifically instructed: "Don't remove the tail, and don't damage the shell."

"Don't worry, I know." Chen Hui took the conch and walked into the kitchen.

He scooped two scoops of water into the big pot.

He walked behind the stove and started a fire.

My mother-in-law and Li Yanhong also came in.

Seeing Chen Hui making a fire, he was a little confused and said, "Young man, you just need to take out the snail meat, you don't need to cook it."

"This snail needs to be boiled in boiling water before it can be taken out whole."

"I'll help you prepare it later, and you can take it back and simply prepare it yourself and eat it."

"The snail shells should also be boiled in boiling water."

"It's disinfected. Just leave it for a few days until everything inside is dry."

Chen Hui explained, breaking some dry firewood and stuffing it into the stove, waiting for the water in the pot to boil.

I found a chopstick and inserted it diagonally into the snail meat, then put the whole snail, shell and meat, into the pot.

The other one is handled in the same way.

After putting the two snails into the pot, Chen Hui went to the stove and added some firewood.

After cooking for two or three minutes, take out the smaller conches.

Use one hand to hold down the shell with a rag.

Use your other hand to grab the inserted chopsticks and slowly twist the snail meat out of the shell.

"Wow! Such a big piece of meat?" said the mother-in-law in surprise.

"It's really big. It must taste much better than snails, right?" Li Yanhong also said.

“This snail meat is not only big, but also delicious.”

Chen Hui scooped up some water, washed the empty shells, and put them back into the big pot to continue cooking.

Bring the snail meat you just made.

Remove the thin shell on top and cut the snail meat in half.

Cut into two thin slices.

He took a plate and handed it to his mother-in-law, saying, "Try it."

"Can we eat it now? Don't they say that snails have to be cooked thoroughly before they can be eaten?"

Li Yanhong was a little worried.

"The conch is cooked once, but it will become overcooked if you cook it any longer."

"This type of snail has almost no parasites. Today, we have to keep the shell intact, so we can only boil it to get it out."

"Or you can even eat it as sashimi, which means eating it raw."

Chen Hui explained, placing the plate on the side of the stove.

Remind them that the chopsticks are on the side.

Then take out the larger conches that are still cooking in the pot.

Use the same method to remove the snail meat.

The snail shells are processed and boiled in a pot for disinfection.

"Hey! It's delicious!" Li Yanhong said in surprise.

"Mm! It's delicious!"

"I've eaten some big conches before, and the taste is very special."

My mother-in-law had just finished speaking.

A clear girl's voice came from outside: "Mom! We are coming!"

"Xiao Yi! Come in quickly, there is something delicious!"

My mother-in-law put down her chopsticks, walked to the kitchen door, waved and shouted.

"What good stuff?"

"In this small village, is there any good food that even my mother-in-law hasn't tasted?"

Wang Xianzhi's voice came.

Li Yanhong heard it and happily walked to the kitchen door.

He smiled and said, "It's the conch sold by Chen Hui. It's delicious! It's a pity that it's sold out, otherwise I would like to buy one."

"Hey! What was I thinking?"

"Conch, that's the taste."

Li Yanhong's father-in-law said this and followed her into the kitchen.

Chen Hui had already sliced ​​up half a plate of snail meat and placed it on the plate.

Several people took chopsticks and ate one or two slices each.

Everyone agrees that the snail meat tastes great.

Without any seasoning, you can taste its own light salty and sweet taste.

"I just wanted to buy two shells, but I didn't expect the food to be so delicious."

"I feel like I've made a good deal." said the mother-in-law happily.

The father-in-law nodded, looked at Chen Hui and asked:
"Young man, you are a good person! You can catch fish in the sea and hunt in the mountains!"

"Your mother-in-law took us to see the leopard you shot just now."

"I want to buy it. How much are you willing to sell it for?"

How much to sell
This one has never been sold.

How bold the man is, how fruitful the land is!
Chen Hui tentatively held out five fingers, "I think this number is still necessary!"
