"Young master, I am willing! How to do it, please command! When Shen Yue's face was so gloomy that it was about to drip water, a middle-aged man stood up.

At the critical moment, it is still reliable from the family.

Some people take the lead, and naturally some people take risks for money.

Most of them are shabby military families, they don't have enough to eat, and it is normal for them to risk their lives for a salary of 50 yuan a day.

Shen Yue only selected five people, and let the family members who stood up for him first take responsibility.

Let them pay attention to their movements, use their own hands, use a sharp waist knife to peel off the thick whale skin, and then cut open a piece of fat more than three inches thick, revealing the red and white whale meat inside.

Whale skin and grease are clearly distinguished, and Shen Yuerao is professional and can also distinguish clearly.

Explain as you go: "Your job is to divide all the parts of the whole whale. First, the skin is peeled off, the subcutaneous oil is cut and boiled into whale oil...... The meat inside, cut into small pieces, is made into jerky...... Visceral parts, dried and set aside...... The contents of the intestines are also dried on the beach...... Nor can bones be thrown away......"

Whales are full of treasures, and leather tanning can be made into leather, which is tougher than animal skin; Whale meat is too wasteful to make feed, and many people will be willing to buy it in the era of meat and meat shortage; Offal, dried and ground into flour, made into feed for poultry and livestock to grow faster; The stomach of the whale is full of small fish and shrimp, and the effect of fertilizing the field is far better than that of farmhouse fertilizer.

Before the whale hunting, Shen Yue had already figured out how to use every part of the whale's body.

There must be no waste in doing such a cruel thing, and there is no way to do it. If he wants to make a fortune in industry, the raw materials are not as abundant as those of later generations.

No matter which part of the whale body, it can have a great effect in Daming.

The aquaculture industry is in a primitive state, ordinary people have few sources of meat, fresh whale meat is not easy to preserve, and it is no problem to make jerky.

The offal is roasted and ground into flour to raise livestock, which is also Shen Yue's plan, the Shen family wants to develop, and has to raise many people, have meat to eat, have silver to take, and countless people are willing to be loyal.

In this era, farming is either plant ash, or all kinds of manure, and there are few other fertilizers, chemical fertilizers, let alone don't expect to use the things in the whale's belly to fertilize the fields, and even some overkill.

What's more, in Shen Yue's plan, whale oil is the core, what he wants the most.

"Young master, can you eat this meat?" Yang Fu asked Shen Yue worriedly.

People who are close to the sea eat a lot of all kinds of fish, and they all think that the big fish are the descendants of the dragon king, where do they dare to eat it?

"Why can't you eat it? It's not a problem to eat it raw, it's better than beef when it's done......" Shen Yue said this, seeing that the eyes of the people staring at him were full of surprise, and he couldn't help but shut up.

In the Ming Dynasty, it was a crime to slaughter ploughing cattle.

According to the "Da Ming Law", anyone who deliberately kills other people's horses and cattle will be punished with 70 rods and one and a half years in prison; slaughter your own horses and cattle privately, and a hundred rods. If the ploughing ox dies of injury or disease, it shall not be reported to the government, but shall be flogged without permission.

Ordinary people, pork is rarely eaten, let alone beef?

Cattle are the main force in farming.

"Cut off a large piece in a while, and we'll eat whale meat tonight!" Shen Yue commanded.

After the demonstration was completed, he watched a few people cut the huge gray whale on the side, and pointed out when he found something wrong, and soon all five of them became proficient.

Naturally, the whale fat that has been cut has been sent to the pot next to it that has been set up on a high fire to refine the oil.

In the hot weather, everyone is sweating, and the temperature is even higher next to the oil refining stove, but not many people care, and the salary of thirty a day is full of energy.

Shen Yue asked the housekeeper to order someone to buy some watermelons and boil some mung bean soup to avoid heat stroke, and even planned to build some thatched huts next to it, if the heat died of people, it would not be good.

Next to the stove, there were many wooden barrels with a diameter of two feet, which were specially made by Shen Yue to the carpenters of the Longshan Institute to contain whale oil.

Refining whale oil is no different from boiling lard, and there are some tools made of strips by the stove, cut into strips of whale meat, smeared with a touch of salt, and spread on it to roast.

In the hot summer, if the food is not processed as soon as possible, it will soon spoil due to the proliferation of bacteria, Shen Yue himself was sweating profusely in the sun, and he was uncomfortable, but he had to stare at it.

Soon, the smell of meat began to waft from the docks, and it was heard far away, far away.

Many people twitched their noses and drooled at the oil residue in the pot and the dried meat that had gradually dried by the stove, dragon meat!

The Shen family, who works also pays wages, is full of enthusiasm, the first pot of whale oil boiled out, and Shen Yue ordered Shen Qi to go home with a wooden barrel filled with grease.

With whale oil in hand, it's time to move on to the next step.

Xu Jiao got off the boat and rode home directly, listening to the porter say that the master was back, at this moment I heard that she was going to sea, she was furious, and was about to sneak in, so she heard Xu Yaozong roaring and asked her to roll over, and in desperation, she could only hand over the horse to the family and go to see her father in a stupid manner.

Xu Yaozong, who was furious, saw the unconscious three daughters, and was about to beat people with family law, but was glared at by Mrs. Xu who was sitting on the side, and then stopped.

"Dad, why can't a woman go to sea? Didn't I come back well? Nothing happened to the fleet either! What do you think Shen Yue is going to sea for? He is going to whaling...... "Xu Jiao has the support of her mother, and she is not afraid of Xu Yaozong at all, and she told his father about this trip to sea.

"What did you say?" Hearing that Shen Yue went out to sea to hunt whales and killed one and dragged it back, Xu Yaozong jumped up in fright.

"Isn't it just whaling, and I didn't see the Dragon Lord appear. Shen Yue was skinning and cramping the whale on the dock at this moment, preparing to refine oil and dry dried meat! After Xu Jiao finished speaking lightly, she said goodbye and slipped away, "Dad, mother, I am seasick, vomiting badly, I am weak, I have to rest." Tomorrow I will continue to go to sea to practice the people of Jiading and Shen Yue......"

After saying that, without waiting for her father to answer, he slipped away.

Xu Yaozong couldn't have a seizure when he was angry, so he could only stare at his wife: "Look at the girl you raised!" ”

"What's wrong with my adopted daughter?" Mrs. Xu squinted at Xu Yaozong, her willow eyebrows upside down, as if Xu Yaozong couldn't explain it well, so she was going to do it.

When Xu Yaozong saw his wife's reaction, he was speechless, and Nuo Nuo held back a sentence for a long time, "Look at the man she chose, he is bold and dares to do anything!" ”

"Isn't it just catching a big fish?" Mrs. Xu pretended to be calm and said.

She was also shocked by Shen Yue's rebellious behavior.

The boy of the Shen family, she has been observing what she has been doing in Longshan these days, and there is nothing that does not meet her wishes.

If you don't go to sea to trade, you don't want to be a bandit, and your daughter didn't choose the wrong Langjun.

But Shen Yue did such a thing, it was too sensational.

Thinking about it carefully, this kid did this, naturally he had his reasons, she was very curious, why did Shen Yue risk the world's disapproval to go whaling, so she said to her husband, "Why did he do this, don't you go and ask it to make it clear?" ”
