Chapter 164, piled up like a mountain

"Bell~Bell~"

The crisp ringing bell continued to echo in the port of Tianjin, which immediately attracted the attention of the busy people in the entire port.

At this time, the port of Tianjin was actually very small, because only a very small number of ships carrying grain would transport grain to Tianjin by sea, and then transfer it to the capital.

Now a large area of land in the surrounding area has been bought by Liu Jin, and he is going to build this place into a big port, so at this time, there are thousands of people busy in the port.

Five fortune ships on the sea from far to near, from small to large, and finally slowly sailed into the harbor, led by the 'Taishan'.

"Liquidated~Liquidated~"

"We caught a lot, a lot of fish, so people hurriedly prepared tools to transport the fish~"

Before it was completely anchored, the people on the 'Tarzan' kept shouting excitedly.

"It seems that the harvest should be good."

Hearing this voice, Liu Jin's hanging heart finally let go, and then let people prepare, prepare, let Zhu Houzhao, the prince of the Ming Dynasty beside him, see the richness of this ocean.

"Childe, a bumper harvest, a bumper harvest, this trawling is simply a god, just one night, the Taishan caught at least 20,000 catties of fish!"

Tian Erniu took the lead and got off the boat, and when he saw Liu Jin who came to greet him, he also said excitedly.

"20,000 catties of fish?"

When Zhu Houzhao on the side heard this, he immediately raised his eyebrows, slightly disbelieving.

"Welcome back safely, hard work!"

Liu Jin congratulated Tian Erniu on his return, and then began to let people unload the fish.

I saw a team of strong men carrying a load of baskets towards the 'Taishan', and someone next to Liu Jin and Zhu Houzhao also got a weigh, ready to weigh the harvest this time.

Soon, the first load of fish was picked down by a man, and I saw that the two baskets were all a few pounds of sea fish, all kinds of sea fish, among which the big yellow croaker and the small yellow croaker had golden scales, which looked very good.

"120 pounds~"

As soon as the fish was unloaded, it was immediately weighed, and someone next to it also recorded the numbers.

"This is sea fish, there are quite a lot of types."

Zhu Houzhao was also interested at this time, carefully looked at the sea fish in the basket, and saw that there were all kinds of fish in it, and he also said.

"Your Highness, the fish in the sea are hundreds or thousands of times more than the freshwater fish, and there are countless kinds of fish, and the nutritional value of this sea fish is extremely high, and there are few parasites in it, so it is most suitable for cutting into slices and eating raw."

Liu Jin on the side saw the big yellow croaker in the basket, and his eyes suddenly lit up.

Liu Jin from later generations has a thunderous reputation for this kind of big yellow croaker, and this kind of sea fish that only rich people can afford to eat has almost reached the point of exhaustion in later generations.

But now, looking at the big yellow croaker in the basket, there are a few catties casually, and there are even more than a dozen catties of big yellow croaker among them.

"Erhu, pick out the biggest big yellow croaker, and bring it to the next day."

"Parasites?"

"Sliced raw?"

When Zhu Houzhao heard this, he immediately became interested, and hurriedly said, "What is a parasite?" Is this marine fish suitable for eating raw? ”

"The so-called parasites are some very small insects that we can't see with the naked eye, and when I make them with a microscope, you will know it with a microscope."

"This marine fish is rich in nutrients and the meat is delicious, but it is not suitable for cooking, and eating it raw is actually the most nutritious for it."

Liu Jin smiled and explained, and then asked someone to have a knife, directly take a yellow croaker and cut out some slices of meat, put it in his mouth and eat it raw.

"Well, the wild ones are fresh and sweet, and the ones that are even more perfect with a little vinegar and soy sauce."

Eating raw fish fillets tastes a little strange at first, and those who are not used to it will feel disgusted, but those who have tasted fresh and sweet will love this extremely sweet delicacy.

In later generations, it was very popular to eat sashimi, and this is not the tradition of the Wa Kingdom, this tradition was also learned from the Tang Dynasty, when the Tang Dynasty people liked to eat sashimi, which was called fish at that time.

It's just that the tradition of this fish belly is because the Tang Dynasty eats freshwater fish, which has more parasites, and it is easy to get sick to the stomach when you eat it, so slowly no one is eating fish fish in the land of Middle-earth.

However, the tradition of this fish troll was passed on to the Wa country, which was close to the sea and caught a lot of sea fish, and they would not have anything to do with eating the fish of the sea fish, so it was gradually preserved and became a tradition for them.

"Is it really that good?"

Zhu Houzhao on the side was shaky, and despite Liu Jin's opposition, he ate a piece of sashimi as thin as a cicada's wings into his mouth, at first his face was a little uncomfortable, but soon, his eyes lit up slightly, and he kept chewing, the more he chewed, the more he tasted, a fresh sweetness filled his taste buds, and he experienced an extreme sweetness.

"Yes, yes, yes, yes."

Without Liu Jin's hands, Zhu Houzhao cut a large yellow croaker into sashimi and tasted it carefully.

"110 pounds~"

Here, a load after load of sea fish is constantly unloaded from the boat, every time it is weighed, it will be reported loudly, and the sea fish that have been weighed are also neatly placed on the side, forming a beautiful landscape.

"Second tiger, pick out those big crabs, what a big crab, tsk, you must not miss it."

"Grouper, what a big grouper, Erhu, don't need me to tell you, yes, it's the black fish that is more than ten catties."

Here, Liu Jin also keeps letting go of his eyes, and whenever he sees the top seafood he likes, he will let Zhao Erhu pick it out and come out to treat himself.

In later generations, Liu Jin never had the opportunity to taste this kind of top-notch seafood, more than ten catties of wild yellow croaker, wild large grouper, which may not be able to be eaten by money, and it depends on whether there is any goods.

A load of fish was constantly unloaded and piled up on the side of the port wharf, and soon it was like a hill, and the golden scales of the big yellow croaker and the small yellow croaker were also shining golden under the sunlight.

"This is the last load of fish, 130 catties, and the total gravity of this boat's fish is 23,500 catties."

After weighing the last load, Tian Erniu also hurriedly reported to Liu Jin and Zhu Houzhao, the whole person was full of smiles, and only went out for one night, which was actually two days, and he brought back more than 23,000 catties of sea fish.

"Twenty-three thousand pounds?"

When Zhu Houzhao heard this, he also stood up, and looked at the fish piled up like a hill on the dock behind him, there were five such fish piles, and each pile was a sea fish caught by a boat.

"A ship has more than 20,000 catties, and these five boats are more than 100,000 catties, and in just two days, five boats and hundreds of people have harvested more than 100,000 catties of sea fish."

Zhu Houzhao calculated carefully, and suddenly the whole person couldn't help but be silent.

This time he came to Tianjin, he did not come in vain, but also had a lot of gains, one of which is to know the preciousness of food, know the suffering of the hungry people, hungry people are terrible, even the bark, Guanyin soil to eat.

Now looking at the sea fish piled up on this side of the port dock, the whole person seems to be thinking about something.
