Food: Random stalls, customers chase me all over the country
Chapter 550: The first day of business at the sea restaurant
Chapter 550 - The first day of business at the sea restaurant
Wang Fan had seen sunrise and sunset at Sailimu Lake in DJI before, and he had also seen sunrise on Mount Tai. Those were two completely different beauties, but when a red sun jumped out of the sea, he finally realized the saying "there are always people better than you".
In the dim light of dawn, the sea was still immersed in tranquility, and a few waves crashed against the hull, making a pleasant sound.
Suddenly, a faint orange color appeared on the horizon, as if a layer of paint had been sprinkled on it by a huge brush.
As time went by, the orange deepened and turned into a bright red, like a burning flame dancing in the sky.
The sun slowly rose from the sea level, its outline became clearer and clearer, and its light became brighter and brighter, until the entire sea surface was dyed golden red.
The sea surface was sparkling, flashing with golden red light, like countless diamonds jumping on the sea.
After watching the sunrise, it was natural to fill his stomach, and the food he ate was the big grouper that Wang Fan caught yesterday.
Such a big fish is definitely not something that can be finished in one meal. In fact, a piece of fish tail meat is enough for three people to eat. Captain Wu asked the coordinates of other captains early in the morning, and after dinner, he drove the boat towards a place where there were people.
Captain Wei and Captain Wu have a good relationship and have often helped each other at sea over the years. When he saw Captain Wu's question, he didn't think much about it and told Captain Wu his coordinates.
There were 14 people on his boat, 13 Chinese and a German man in his 50s.
They had been out for two days, and the German man had caught a 100-pound yellowfin tuna, which was a good return on most of his investment. He could easily land another one. The others had also caught some fish, but the value varied.
Wang Fan's eyes suddenly lit up when he saw more than ten people on the deck from afar. If one person bought a copy, today's mission would be completed.
"Captain Wu, pull the boat over."
Shen Teng waved his hand majestically, looking like a powerful captain.
Captain Wu shook his head and said, "No, boss. Fishing boats like ours need to keep a safe distance, otherwise the fishing lines will easily get tangled."
Shen Teng thought about it and said nothing in disappointment. Wang Fan was a little anxious. If he was not allowed to go over, would the mission be impossible to complete?
But then I thought, the reason they don't let me get close is because they're afraid the fishing lines will get tangled. So can't I get close when they're not fishing?
As for how to stop them from fishing...
Hehehe, Wang Fan felt that he had more than 100 ways.
The people on Captain Wei's fishing boat were chatting while waiting for the fish to bite.
Old Jack is the German uncle, his face full of golden beard is filled with joy. He has earned back the ticket price in just two days. Whatever he catches in three days is a huge profit.
He has been in China for 20 years and is an experienced angler with 30 years of sea fishing experience. There are two people on the boat who are his friends and are fishing.
He patted the shoulder of a man in his 40s and said, "Don't be discouraged, Lao Pi. You still have three days left. You won't return empty-handed. If you really fail, I'll treat you to authentic Wudu hotpot when you get back."
Lao Pi is a little chubby and there is no sign of frustration on his face. There is no rule in fishing and it is common to come out empty-handed. He has long been used to it.
"Just because of your Fog City Hot Pot, I have to go back empty-handed this time. But what I'm most looking forward to right now isn't the Fog City Hot Pot, nor is it catching a big fish."
Old Jack frowned and asked in confusion, "You're not looking forward to hot pot or catching a big fish? Then what else is there to look forward to?"
Lao Pi chuckled and said, "Let me tell you, there's a very famous chef in China right now who's also on this sea. The food he makes is said to be a rare delicacy. I want to meet him and try it to see if it's really that good."
Old Jack was a little confused: "Can it be better than Fog City Hot Pot? I don't believe it."
Lao Pi said with some longing: "I also heard from my friend that after eating it, you can only feel the fragrance on your lips and teeth for a month. I don't know the specific taste."
Old Jack licked his lips and said, "I'd like to try it too, just as you said. I just don't know if there's any hope of encountering it at sea."
I often go fishing at sea and want to find something new. Last night, I accidentally saw this news on my phone, which made me a little surprised.
The main reason was that a friend of his said that he had eaten a meal cooked by that person in Yunnan. A month after he returned home, he still missed the taste. As a result, his family sent him to the police station for a urine test. Although everything was normal after the test, that friend was ridiculed by everyone.
But this also raises a question for everyone: is that weird thing circulating on the Internet really true?
It's just a meal, no matter how delicious it is, how can it be so delicious? How can it make people think about it for a whole month?
If this happens, I really have to...
"Ok?"
The two people who were chatting were suddenly stunned, and then couldn't help twitching their noses a few times.
Lao Pi looked at the cabin in confusion. The boss and the waiter were not inside. What was going on with that fragrance?
How come there is such a fragrant smell suddenly coming from the sea?
Not only Lao Pi, but also Old Jack was looking around at this time, and the other ten or so anglers were also looking around in confusion.
The person who could do such a thing is naturally Wang Fan.
At this time, he had put a stove on the deck, and on the stove was an iron net. On the iron net was the black grouper skin that had been scaled off.
The meat of this grouper is of average quality and may appear a little tough, but the skin of this fish is definitely a good thing, and the bigger it is, the more valuable it is. There is a dish called "Kunlun Baofu" in the Manchu-Han Banquet, which mainly uses the skin of this grouper.
In order to complete the task, Wang Fan was not prepared to be a human being. While others were enjoying fishing, he started barbecue on the sea.
Although the two boats were some distance apart, the delicious aroma of the barbecue could still be carried over without any problem.
The skin of this fish has no fishy smell and has a very high gelatin content. The thick gelatin seeps out under the temperature of the fire and turns into a fragrant aroma, tempting every angler indiscriminately.
Lao Pi was a little bit in disbelief at this moment. He had already seen the fishing boat not far away. Although he couldn't see its specific appearance, he thought that the fragrance could only be smelled by the legendary gourmet boss, right?
Isn't this a bit too lucky? We just happened to meet like this?
Wang Fan dipped the brush in the sauce and brushed it on the fish skin. The aroma of the sauce immediately became even more intense.
The sea breeze wielded the aroma to the neighboring boat, making the anglers, who had been fishing for half a day, salivate. The food at sea was passable, not exactly instant food, but not particularly delicious either. After two days of neglect, their stomachs, receiving the signal from their noses, began to churn, determined not to stop until they had the source of the aroma.
In order to make these anglers obey, Wang Fan not only prepared grilled fish skin, but also made fish balls with the grouper meat. With his experience in making beef balls, making fish balls was a piece of cake for him.
The dried grouper meat is just right for making fish balls. Not only does it taste good, but it also has a firmer and chewier texture.
Although the taste of fish balls is not as overbearing as grilled fish skin, it is also fresh and pleasant. When the sea breeze blows it into the fisherman's nose, it feels like a feather gently teasing the taste buds. As for the fisherman's reaction, to say that his mouth is salivating is an understatement, and to say that he is eloquent is a true portrayal.
Lao Pi now believed more than half of his friend's exaggerated statement.
There was no way he couldn't believe it. Even if he didn't believe it, the saliva that kept secreting from his mouth made him believe it.
One is refreshing and sweet, the other is overbearing and hot. The two completely different flavors are like the black and white evil spirits, which make my taste buds dizzy.
Lao Pi was very anxious because the legendary delicacy was only a hundred meters away from him, but this hundred meters was separated by a sea more than 200 meters deep. He had no ability to swim over to eat the delicacy, and the most likely possibility was that he would jump in to feed the fish.
Shen Teng looked at the fishing boat in the distance and asked uncertainly, "Brother Wang, do you think they will come over to buy some delicious food?"
Wang Fan smiled and said, "If they come, we'll sell it to them. If they don't, we'll eat it ourselves. But I think they should come over, so let the fragrance spread for a while."
Captain Wu wiped his mouth and said confidently, "If they smell it, they can't help but come. Most of the food they eat normally tastes so-so, so the first thing they do after getting off the boat is find a place to eat. They can't find food as delicious as Boss Wang's even after getting off the boat, so if they come across it, they absolutely can't miss it."
After spending a night together, he already knew Wang Fan's identity. After all, Internet information is so developed now. When he boarded the ship, he was too heavily armed to be recognized. When he took off his equipment while eating, he felt that he looked familiar. After seeing the news on the Internet, he immediately locked on Wang Fan's identity.
He may have thought that those people were exaggerating in the past, but he actually ate a meal cooked by someone last night. The delicious taste was absolutely unique in his life. Until now, he can still feel the mellow taste flowing through his teeth. He just wants to say that those who praise others online are too conservative.
Wang Fan picked up the tongs and picked up a small piece of fish skin and put it on the plate. Shen Teng and Captain Wu immediately stared at the plate, waiting eagerly for Wang Fan to try it.
Wang Fan first smelled the smell, and a delicious aroma rushed to his head. Several kinds of barbecue spices were mixed in it, making the smell extremely overbearing.
He blew lightly, put the fish into his mouth and took a bite. The soft fish skin could be bitten without any effort. The soft and tender taste was like jelly, but the soft and sticky gelatin was extremely elastic. It refused to break between Wang Fan's mouth and the fish skin on the plate. It was not until it was pulled out more than ten centimeters that the last bit of gelatin broke, causing Captain Wu and Shen Teng to swallow their saliva.
Wang Fan chewed it lightly, and the gelatinous fish skin bounced against his teeth, but after a slight resistance, it quickly surrendered and turned into tender fish meat that was slightly sticky and melted in his mouth.
A thin layer of chili peppers provides a rich and fiery aroma and taste. A little bit of salt is like the finishing touch that completely activates the delicious fish meat. The cumin seeds are like pearls embellished on it. As they burst in your mouth, they give the grilled grouper skin a wild flavor.
"It's delicious."
Shen Teng couldn't help it, so he picked up the tongs and picked up a piece for himself. For Brother Wang to give the comment of "really delicious", it must have reached a level that ordinary people could never tolerate.
He blew hard twice, then opened his mouth and bit it without hesitation.
The fresh, fiery and overbearing fragrance instantly made Shen Teng fall in love with this smell.
Captain Wu was embarrassed. He couldn't just reach out and take it without being called, right?
But if he doesn't take it, the fragrance will be like the big claw of an excavator scratching his heart, which is unbearable!
At this moment, Wang Fan's voice, like the sound of nature, reached his ears: "Captain Wu, let's eat together."
Captain Wu quickly handed his plate to Wang Fan and said excitedly, "Thank you, Boss Wang! I'll give you a 30% discount on your fare this time!"
Wang Fan smiled and said, "Thank you, Captain Wu."
Although Shen Teng is not short of money, he saves as much as he can. It seems that this boss is a sentimental person. If you don't agree to his request, you will feel embarrassed to eat there in the future. After all, you will feel like you owe someone something.
Although the fish we eat nowadays is quite expensive, it is nothing compared to the 3% off price.
Captain Wu was also very excited at the moment. Not only did he meet the legendary gourmet boss, but he also met him on his own fishing boat!
Isn't this equivalent to eating alone?
Eating alone feels good for a while, eating alone all the time feels good all the time!
He picked up his phone, took a few photos, and sent them directly to his old friend, Captain Wei who was not far away.
"Old Wei, take a look at the food here. It's personally grilled by Boss Wang, the most powerful outdoor gourmet boss. The taste... wow... tsk!"
The words were filled with an emotion called arrogance.
Captain Wei also noticed the situation on his side. He looked at the photos in his hand, smelled the fragrance that kept coming, and then looked at the glaring "Wow... Tsk!" on his mobile phone. He felt that although he didn't say anything about this smell, it seemed that everything had reached his "stomach".
How delicious must this be to make you exclaim like that?!
Licking his lips and swallowing his saliva, Captain Wei looked eagerly at Captain Wu's ship.
I really want to eat it!
At this time, Lao Pi, Lao Jack and others found Captain Wei. Captain Wei couldn't stand them and he was not much better. Although the passion for fishing was above everything else, people are made of iron and rice is made of steel, right?
Lao Pi asked, "Captain Wei, can we pull over? I want to ask if Boss Wang sells his grilled food. It smells so good, I don't have the heart to fish at all!"
The others also echoed: "Yes, this is simply a mental attack, there is no way to defend against it."
"The scent was so tempting that I almost jumped into the sea and swam over."
"Drive on, drive on, I can't take it anymore!"
Captain Wei was very tempted, and he could no longer resist the aroma, but he said with some embarrassment, "If we go over there, you'll have to reel in your fishing lines, and then you'll have to let the other side reel in their lines too. Wouldn't that delay the bosses' recovery?"
Lao Pi said nonchalantly, "We still have a lot of time left. We don't need to worry about this moment. We just discussed it and are willing to reel in the line and move over. Otherwise, why don't you ask the people on the other boat if they can reel in the line?"
Captain Wei was delighted and said quickly, "Okay, that captain is my friend. I'll ask him now."
