Chapter Eighty-Eight: Catching the Monkey

Time flies like a white horse

In the blink of an eye, three or four days passed.

The peaches in the orchard have been almost sold, the busy days are finally over, and Zhang Feng has more free time.

After dinner, Zhang Feng was still lying in the courtyard reading a novel..................

"Alas, why is it gone, and the author doesn't have more chapters...... "After reading today's update in three or two, Zhang Feng shook his head and sighed, the days of book famine are really difficult.

Zhang Feng, who was bored, had no choice but to brush up on the news, as long as there was an Internet, Xiucai would know the world without going out, Zhang Feng also had to sigh that life in this era is convenient, even in remote rural areas, he can still keep abreast of the development and changes of the world at any time.

"Huh!" Suddenly Zhang Feng found an interesting news: "Thousands of mountain people in a certain place have caught it at night, and they can catch tens of millions in a month."

"I'm going, I'll catch so many in a month, won't it be extinct?" Zhang Feng exclaimed, and at the same time wondered what these people were doing after catching so much, could it be to make medicine?

So Zhang Feng clicked in to take a look, and after reading it, it suddenly dawned on him, it turned out that knowing the larvae is also knowing the monkey, and it is also a very delicious game, which is rich in protein and tastes incomparably delicious, and is a special delicacy in many places.

And I know that the production method of monkey is very simple, as long as it is cleaned, and then fried in vegetable oil, wow! The chicken is crunchy! It is delicious.

Seeing the above description, Zhang Feng couldn't help but swallow his saliva. "Looks like there's something in the orchard too. Suddenly, Zhang Feng's eyes lit up, he happened to see it in his own orchard two days ago, and there were quite a few of them, and there were many of them, and they were found on every orange tree. It is often seen even on the willow trees by the Moon Lake.

People take food as the sky, gluttony is everyone's nature, Zhang Feng is no exception, knowing that this thing is also a kind of food, he suddenly couldn't sit still, immediately got up, and prepared tools according to the method in the article.

The larvae first live in the burrows under the trees, feeding on the sap from the roots and stems of the trees, and in June and July every year, they will take advantage of the darkness to crawl out of the burrows, ready to climb to the trees, stretch their wings, and spread their wings high.

However, the larvae at this time are very slow and cannot fly, so they are the easiest time to catch.

So Zhang Feng prepared a flashlight and a small bucket, called Zhang Yi and Zhang Lin and walked towards Moon Lake.

"Big brother, can you really eat monkeys?" Zhang Yi was a little skeptical, knowing that it looked strange, and he was a little apprehensive.

"Why can't you, if you don't believe me, I'll search the Internet for you to see. Then Zhang Feng turned on the traffic and searched for countless news about the monkey.

"See, there are so many places that have eaten monkeys. Zhang Feng handed over the news above for Zhang Yi and Zhang Lin to see.

"Wow! A monkey can be sold for a dollar, so let's catch a few hundred a day, isn't there a few hundred?" Zhang Yi saw the above information, his eyes lit up, Zhang Lin's eyes widened in surprise, wondering if he could also catch a monkey in exchange for pocket money.

"Hehe, I think you're thinking too much, how can there be so many monkeys in our village for you to catch?" Seeing the expressions of the two, Zhang Feng knew what they thought, but not every place has so many monkeys.

The growth environment is very unique, not all trees have so much, because the monkey likes the sap of trees, so they generally live on trees with abundant sap.

"Alas, how come there are so many other places, and you can catch tens of thousands in one night?" Zhang Yi said with a look of pity.

"Don't think too much, they can catch tens of thousands of dollars a night, that's the harvest of hundreds of people, and the average score is on each person, it's just more than a hundred, and they can earn a hundred yuan a day. Zhang Feng said with a slight smile.

"It's not bad to have a hundred yuan!" said her sister Zhang Lin excitedly.

"Hehe, then who are you going to sell to? There must be a market, and someone dares to eat it." Zhang Feng said with a smile.

"Well, yes. Zhang Lin sighed, and the money-making plan was shattered.

Then everyone stopped discussing the matter of catching the monkey to make money, and walked to the lake with this small bucket and a flashlight.

The larvae live in the soil, and they suck the sap of plant roots, weakening the tree, causing the branches to die, and affecting the growth of the tree.

Only when they are about to be feeaten, they burrow into the surface of the soil at dusk or night, climb the tree, and then grasp the bark and molt and feather.

"Look carefully, they may be in the willow trees or in the caves underground. When he came to the lake, Zhang Feng told the two while looking for it.

"Ah, brother, look at me, I caught a ......," soon the little sister shouted happily to Zhang Feng.

"Hey, yes, that's it, you all look carefully, there must be one around here. After Zhang Feng saw it, he was also very happy, it seems that he will not run in vain today.

So the three of them began to look for it with great interest, and sure enough, there were not many monkeys in the vicinity, and everyone had harvests one after another.

When they found the monkey, everyone was very excited and encouraged, and then continued to search, and the three of them were like playing a treasure game when they were children, happily searching under the tree.

You may know that you like the sap of willow trees, and there is a harvest on almost every tree, and there can be three or five on one tree at most.

When the three of them circled along the Moon Lake and searched for all the poplars by the lake, more than an hour had passed, and at this time, there were dozens or hundreds of monkeys in each person's small bucket.

"Let's go! Xiao Lin, Xiao Yi, let's go home!"

"Big brother, aren't we looking for it?" Zhang Yi was still unsatisfied, and Zhang Lin also looked at Zhang Feng expectantly, hoping to play for a while.

"Hehe, we've all gone around in circles, where are we going to find it?" the two seemed to be so engrossed that they forgot that everyone had returned to square one.

"Ah, it's done so quickly. The two looked around, and then said in surprise.

"Okay, let's hurry home and see if it's as good as it says on the Internet. ”

"Yes, let's go back and try it. When it came to eating, Zhang Yi suddenly couldn't wait.

…………

When the three of them get home

It was half past eight in the evening

The moon and stars in the sky are scarce, the bright moonlight is sprinkled all over the earth, and the whole moon lake seems to be covered with a layer of white gauze, which is like a dream and very beautiful.

When he got home, Zhang Feng began to clean the monkeys, because they live in the soil, and their whole bodies are like mud monkeys, so they need to be carefully cleaned, and only by washing all the sediment on their bodies will not be coughing their teeth.

After cleaning it five times, he finally cleaned the monkey quickly, and then Zhang Feng lit a fire, poured a pound or two of cooking oil into the pot, waited until the cooking oil was boiling, and then poured the drained monkey into the tumbling oil pot.

Suddenly, there was a rattling in the hot oil pot, and a rich smell of meat filled the entire kitchen, and everyone who watched it swallowed their saliva.

Although Zhang Feng fried the monkey for the first time, he still had a good grasp of the heat, and after about five or six minutes, the monkey in the oil pan was fried and browned.

"Zhang Lin, have you tried to fry it?" Zhang Feng took one and handed it to his sister.

My sister took a bite, and it was immediately crispy and delicious, full of fragrance. "Well, it's delicious. ”

"Let me taste it too. Zhang Yi couldn't wait to say, Zhang Feng smiled and gave one to him.

"Okay, right?" Zhang Feng asked with a smile when he saw the two of them.

"Alright, alright, it's really delicious. Zhang Yi couldn't wait to say.

After frying, Zhang Feng immediately pushed off the fire in the stove sugar, and then used a colander to fry the fried Huang Cancan monkey and scoop it up.

Carrying a large bowl of delicious food to the hall, "Mom, eldest sister, come and taste the monkey and ask?"

As soon as the fried golden monkey enters the mouth, the chicken flavor is crunchy, crispy and delicious, the fragrance is rich, and the rich meat aroma is fascinating.

"Well, it's delicious, I didn't know this thing could be eaten before. ”

"I didn't expect such an inconspicuous thing to taste so good"

After tasting it, everyone applauded, but I didn't expect that the monkey could make such a delicious taste.

In the countryside, everyone has eaten grasshoppers, bee eggs or something, so there is no taboo, not afraid of these things at all, everyone eats with relish, and it is delicious.

Soon, a big bowl of monkeys was wiped out by everyone, and after eating, Zhang Yi shouted that he would go tomorrow, and it seemed that he would never be able to eat enough of such delicious things, and he would not get tired of eating.
