Chapter 887: Charcoal Fire Frog Pot
Well, you can't break your word in front of your child.
Xu Suizhu rolled up her sleeves: "Mom, I'll prepare the ingredients! How about making them for you to eat at noon tomorrow? ”
Speaking of which, my nephew is going to go to the provincial sports team in the spring and play football with Coach Sun Zhian, and there is not much time left at home.
So, while Baozi's father hadn't gone to work yet, he took him to Shuangquan Town, a neighboring city bordering Yupu, that afternoon, which was the grandmother's house of the competition class students.
Shuangquan Town is a little far from the sea, but there are two large lakes in the town, and there are many ponds in front of and behind the house.
In the past two years, some people have raised bullfrogs in the pond in front of and behind the house - this was a new dish in the 90s, and it was usually only eaten in restaurants or wine banquets, and it was not usually bought and eaten.
Xu Suizhu didn't see a stall selling bullfrogs in the vegetable market, if it weren't for the tutoring of students a few years ago, and the casual chat after class to hear the students mention that her grandmother's family raised bullfrogs, she would not have remembered the famous dish of charcoal frog pot that swept later generations.
When I think about it, I can't help but want to eat.
Now the best cooking utensils for the charcoal frog pot - the double-layer old copper hot pot has been prepared, the smokeless carbon has been prepared, and various condiments have been put in place, just waiting to welcome the main material bullfrog home.
"I always thought that Shuangquan Town was similar to our Dadu Town, nothing more than two more lakes, I didn't expect it to be so distinctive! ”
Shuangquan Town has a lot of water, which is something that the locals know, because every flood season, they will hear that the neighboring city of Shuangquan Town is flooded again, but I didn't expect the water system of Shuangquan Town to be so developed - the whole town seems to be built on water: the river is like a brocade ribbon lingering, accompanied by ponds in front of the house and behind the house.
Mr. Xu, who is accustomed to looking at the development of things from the perspective of later generations, couldn't help but say: "If you repair the houses of each family, with black tiles and white walls hooking corners and eaves, and small bridges and flowing water around people's houses, this is definitely a ready-made scenic spot!"
Unfortunately, she was heard by the township cadres who passed by, and chased her and asked, "Will there really be tourists?"
Seeing that Yupu's fjord, Pingtou, Shikan and other towns have become rich one after another, not to mention attracting waves of tourists, they have also attracted a lot of large orders - tea, dried seafood, canned fruits in the fjord, bath salts in Pingtou, stone carvings in Shikan...... It is not an exaggeration to say that it is well-known at home and abroad.
I still hear people say at every turn: There are gringos who visit several towns in Yupu, and when they visit the back, they will always buy some more.
Even the mountain villages, which used to be at the bottom of the province, have developed like a rocket in recent years: farmhouses have opened, mountain goods have been sold, and even a piece of wasteland has been found by the Li Group in Hong Kong City, saying that it wants to build commercial houses there......
To say that the people of Shuangquan Town do not envy it at all is absolutely false. I can't get enough of it!
But what does Shuangquan Town have? Except for the two lakes, which are quite distinctive, there is no other output! Seafood can also be made into dried and exported to be sold, but where is there no crucian carp, grass carp, or freshwater shrimp? In cities far from the sea, can you still buy fresh fish from the inner lakes and rivers?
What's more, not every household in Shuangquan Town has the money to contract the big lake, and most of them still maintain the living conditions in the early days of reform and opening up: the small pond in front of the house and behind the house raises some fish and shrimp, and at the same time, picks up the farmers' market in the city to sell some money.
It's just that this business is not good to do when it is hot, fish and shrimp are easy to die, freshwater fish and shrimp are not as good as seafood, and they can't be sold at a price if they die.
So don't look at every household in Shuangquan Town, it seems that they all raise fish and shrimp, but in fact, the income is not high. The main thing is that it can't open the market.
The two large lakes were divided into areas and contracted to more than a dozen households, and these ten households sometimes grabbed business!
Therefore, the town cadres of Shuangquan Town are extremely envious of those villages and towns in the north of Yupu City, and they have thought more than once: It would be nice if they could attract tourists to come to their own town to play! They can also open farmhouses, eating fish, shrimp and crabs in the pond, and farmhouse dishes by the pond.
Leng Buding heard Xu Suizhu's emotion, and the township cadres suddenly came to their senses.
Seeing that Xu Suizhu's eyes were tight, white and beautiful, and he was from the city at first glance, he was either passing by here, or a distant relative of which family, so he warmly invited:
"It's the first time you've come to our town, right? Do you want me to take you around? This girl just said, how can we change this place, and it can also attract tourists to visit? I'll talk to you, the air here is really good, there are few factories, some are also environmentally friendly, look at the water quality in this river, is it clear? You can see the water and grass at the bottom of the river. These are wild fish and shrimp, and they taste old and delicious...... The two big lakes have been contracted out to raise crabs in the past two years, and you will come back in autumn, and I will invite you to eat lake crabs. I'll tell you, as long as you've eaten our crabs here, you'll be sure to look down on crabs from other places......"
This township cadre is also a talker, usually who he meets has to chat for a long time, and when he meets Xu Suizhu and his wife, he looks like he is from the city, and he wants to sell his own town.
Xu Suizhu listened to him energetically, and was embarrassed to interrupt.
Having said that, this Shuangquan Town can indeed try to build an ecological fish village, which is similar to a farmhouse, but the fun provided is different.
Shanli Village occupies a geographical advantage, providing a beautiful and quiet place for tourists to rest and eat and play in the mountains and waters;
Although there are no mountains in Shuangquan Town, the water system is developed, and you can get a few hand-rowed boats for tourists to go boating on the lake, fishing, enjoying the scenery, and picking lotus flowers......
Tourists are also provided with a spacious campsite-like place where they can cook fish, stir-fry vegetables, and stew rice, just like students go to the countryside for picnics.
It's just that you don't need to bring pots and pans for a picnic here, just come (with money) to fish, pick vegetables, and cook your own food in the camp at noon.
In the end, if you are satisfied with your food and have a good time, you may buy a few catties of fish, shrimp and crabs when you go home. What a fun and fulfilling day!
"That's an absolutely good idea!"
When the township cadres heard Xu Suizhu say a general idea, they patted their thighs excitedly: "When I see that my sister is a cultural person, no wonder I can think of such a good idea! It seems that it is right to tighten my belt and let my children study!"
Xu Suizhu said with a smile: "Uncle, I just saw the scenery of your town, and I mentioned it by the way, you still have to find someone to discuss the specific operation." Besides, this is a major concern for the livelihood of the whole town, and it is best to talk to the residents of the whole town to see what the overall wishes of everyone are! The hearts of the people are united and Mount Tai moves; the hearts of the people are scattered, and it is difficult to move rice! Are you right?"
