Chapter Forty-Seven: The Dragon Trout That I Never Forget
The Ma family, who walked around the bamboo forest, and after seeing two beautiful bamboo forests, was proposed by Wu Dao. A group of people began to make their way to the farm, and when they reached the edge of the pond. When they saw those lush broad-leaved trees, the two old men who enjoyed the scenery all the way couldn't help but sigh that the scenery here was really good.
Only when Ma Gongcheng, who was by the pond, saw the pond where dragon trout were raised, and there were many dragon trout figures that made him think about it. Suddenly pulled Wu Dao aside, and said with some embarrassment: "Xiao Wu, I see that there are already a lot of dragon trout in your pool." Why don't you sell my brother a face today, and make two of these fish when I cook next. If you say anything about money, you can just say a number, and my brother doesn't feel bad to you. What do you think? β
Hearing that Ma Gongcheng wanted to eat dragon trout again, Wu Dao thought that these two Ma family members today should have a lot of background. Cai smiled and said: "Okay, then I'll catch two later, let my mother clean up, and entertain you distinguished guests at noon." As for whether the money is or not, don't talk about Brother Ma as my brother. However, in the future, the sales price of this dragon trout will be achieved by Brother Ma. β
Seeing that Wu Dao was so refreshing, he knew that almost all of these dragon trout were used as horses for fish breeding. also knew that Wu Dao could make an exception to make another fish for his family to taste, which can be said to be very rare.
Therefore, he said very excitedly: "Then I thank my brother for his kindness, to be honest, for the taste of this dragon trout, my brother I have thought about it many times." If it weren't for the fact that my uncle and uncle rarely came out together today, I would be embarrassed to ask you to kill the fish.
Rest assured, when this dragon trout is sold in the future, the old brother will not let you suffer in terms of pricing. Such a good thing, but it's hard to buy a good thing even with money! β
Maybe it was the way the two of them whispered that attracted the attention of Uncle Ma Gongcheng, this old man who saw Wu Dao for the first time, he felt that Wu Dao had a kind of temperament that surprised him.
Suddenly asked, "Gongcheng, what are you muttering to Xiao Wu in the back?" β
This old man who looked to be about sixty years old, in the process of chatting just now, Wu Dao also knew that the other party's name was Ma Dingjun. After secretly asking Lao Tan, he also knew that this old man was just as he guessed, and he was indeed a senior military official from the old army. He is the deputy commander of the East China Military Region, and his military rank is also a dignified lieutenant general.
Although he was a deputy commander, this deputy commander was originally more powerful than the commander of the Han River Provincial Military Division. Because the Hanjiang Provincial Military Division is also under the jurisdiction of the East China Military Region. The weight of the deputy commander of this large military region is naturally not comparable to that of ordinary provincial military district commanders.
Ma Gongcheng's eldest uncle, Ma Dingshan, who was a little older, retired from the position of deputy national level. He once served as the secretary of the Hanjiang Provincial Party Committee, and served as the leader of national ministries and commissions for a period of time, and he also has a small prestige in domestic political circles. As for the base camp of Hanjiang Province, Ma Dingshan, the protΓ©gΓ© of the old secretary, is even more handful.
The Ma family is also one of the best families in Hanjiang Province, and the old man who has worked hard to create the prestige of the Ma family today is also a figure in the eyes of the younger generations of the Ma family.
Hearing this soldier-born uncle ask, Ma Gongcheng hurriedly replied with a smile: "Uncle, do you remember what I told you last time that I tasted the best delicacy at Master Tan's house?" You used to laugh at me and tell me that I don't remember to prepare a portion of delicious food for you.
It's a rare opportunity for everyone to come out today, so I discussed it with Brother Xiao Wu, and let him prepare this dish later, so that you can try it and see if you can conquer your appetite. β
Others don't know, but Ma Gongcheng knows very well that this third uncle also likes food as much as he does. It can be said that he will become like this, and most of it is learned from this uncle. The uncle and nephew are very picky about deliciousness. After tasting the delicacy of dragon trout at Lao Tan's house last time, Ma Gongcheng naturally couldn't help but show off in front of this uncle.
Ma Dingjun, who was also very curious about what kind of delicacy would make this nephew, who had tasted countless delicacies from the mountains and seas, never forget, also said with a hint of interest: "Could it be that the good things you ate last time were also produced here by Xiao Wu?" β
Ma Gongcheng nodded and said, "Yes, it can be said that this delicacy is not known anywhere else except here." β
Just as the uncle and nephew were talking, Lao Tan suddenly interjected: "Little Taoist, your fish was bred so quickly?" β
Wu Dao saw that everyone was very curious, so he shook his head and said: "Mass production is not possible for the time being, but it is not a problem to catch a few to entertain guests." β
When he heard that the so-called delicacy in Ma Gongcheng's mouth turned out to be fish, Ma Dingjun, who had been observing Ma Gongcheng's eyes, suddenly said: "Gongcheng, you won't tell me that the delicacy you are talking about is the fish raised in this pool, right?" β
What surprised him a little was that Ma Gongcheng really gave a thumbs up and nodded: "The third uncle really deserves to be a general, this look is not ordinary." When I say delicious, it's really the beautiful fish in this pool. Don't underestimate the fish in this pond, I have searched through the introduction of aquatic species for this fish, and I have never seen any information about this fish. If it weren't for the fact that I had the pleasure of tasting this fish at Master Tan's house last time, I probably wouldn't have known that there is such a delicious fish in this world. β
Seeing that this uncle didn't seem to believe it, Ma Gongcheng hurriedly said, "Third uncle, do you want to ask Master Tan if you don't believe it, what does this fish taste like?" β
Facing Ma Dingjun's curiosity, Lao Tan nodded and said, "Brother Dingjun, what Gongcheng said is indeed good, even I have seen the fish in this pond for the first time." It tastes good! It's arguably the best fish I've ever cooked. As for whether I'm exaggerating or not, you can taste it for yourself when it's time to eat. See if I'm right! β
What Wu Dao didn't expect was that as soon as Lao Tan's words fell, Ma Dingjun said with a smile: "If you just listen to what this kid says, I may not believe it." But Brother Tan's cooking skills are recognized, and even what you say is good, it must not be simple. Okay, then I'll really have to wait and see what is so extraordinary about this fish. β
After talking about the delicacy of dragon trout, Wu Dao asked his father to lead the Ma family to the greenhouse first to taste the taste of those fruits. Under the gaze of the two bodyguards who seemed to be a little uneasy, it took several twists and turns to catch three dragon trout that were not light. Let the little sister, who is also waiting to taste the taste of this fish again, send the three fish home to cook.
After dealing with the dragon trout, I came to the greenhouse and saw those Ma family members, just like the gang of dead friends yesterday. When he lowered his head and ate it violently, Wu Daocai hurriedly stepped forward and said with a smile: "Brother Ma, this fruit tastes good, right?" β
Ma Gongcheng, who stuffed several cherry tomatoes in his mouth, also sighed again and again: "To be honest, I really admire my brother's planting skills." This fruit looks no different from the outside, why does the old brother grow it so good? Could it be, what unique secrets does your brother have? β
Naturally, there are unique cheats, but can this thing be said casually?
Wu Dao, who was smiling secretly in his heart, smiled very easily on his face: "Most of the planting on this farm is taken care of by my parents. To be honest, I really didn't bother much, brother. This fruit will have such a good taste, and the biggest possibility is that the feng shui here is good, so that such a superb fruit can be grown. How about selling this fruit to my brother, the price can go up a little more, right? β
Ma Gongcheng, who just owed Wu Dao a favor, knew how much benefit this superb fruit could bring him, so he naturally said stingily: "Don't worry, what your brother planted, when did your brother make you suffer?" I didn't say it, the highest price on the market for this cherry tomato was seven or eight yuan. I gave my brother a purchase price of 20 yuan a catty, my brother should be satisfied, right? β
Twenty yuan a pound of cherry tomatoes will definitely be scolded when they are brought to the market, but Wu Dao knows that the people who consume these fruits are not the ones who are short of money. Compared with those imported fruits, it is really not unusual to spend around 100 yuan.
Wu Dao, who was about the same price as he had in his heart, saw that Ma Gongcheng took the initiative to raise the price to twenty yuan, so he naturally would not refuse and said with a smile: "Okay, then calculate it according to the price that my brother said." However, if you don't want to miss the delicious food on the dinner table, it's better to eat less of this fruit. You know, the watermelon in the next few sheds also tastes very good! If my brother still eats so hard, he won't be able to eat later! β
Ma Gongcheng, who was teased by Wu Dao, naturally didn't want to miss the opportunity to taste dragon trout again, so he could only resist the temptation of the saint. followed Wu Dao to the watermelon greenhouse next to him and saw the small watermelons piled up all over the ground. Ma Gongcheng also feels that this situation is completely unconventional, and such an intensive planting method may only be seen here.
When Wu Dao picked a watermelon at random and handed it to him to taste, the sugar-like and delicate watermelon taste let Ma Gongcheng know. After eating the fruits here, those picky eaters may not eat other fruits in the future.
Therefore, the price is relatively high when the price is set. This made Wu Dao feel that this Ma Gongcheng seemed to have the shrewdness of a businessman, but he also understood the principle of casting a long line to catch big fish.
This made Wu Dao feel that in the future, after the planting area expanded, maybe the two sides could deepen their cooperation. After all, the Ma family's fame in the Han River can largely protect him from potential threats to these delicious foods.
