Chapter Eighty-Five: Feasting
Ironclad snails can be sold for about 700 star coins per kilogram, which is close to 200,000 star coins when converted, and 200,000 yuan can be earned in half a day, this business is not a loss!
Of course, this is also a gathering place where such ironclad snails can be found with good luck, and after they have swept like this, it is estimated that most of the ironclad snails conceived in it have gone, and there is no way to catch them on a large scale in the short term.
If there is money, everyone earns it together, Xiao Lin announced in front of all the hunters that he had followed him, and each of them would be rewarded with 5,000 star coins, of which Seth and Marbel would be rewarded with an additional 2,000.
This move made the other hunters blush, and wondered why they didn't take the initiative to follow before, such a simple job can be done by any professional hunter.
And these new hunters have also heard that a few old people caught the Huofeng tooth crocodile and auctioned it for tens of millions of dollars, and Yang Ye and their bonuses and dividends alone are worth their tiring work for two or three years.
This is also Xiao Lin's purpose, to inspire others to work harder.
"Brother Lin, should we save a few for ourselves?"
Yang Yanchang said with some greed.
"Okay, pick a few and go, and you'll take care of the rest, don't kill them."
"Don't worry! These guys are worth more than 100,000 yuan, and even if you kill me, you can't let them die! ”
Yang Yanchang said with a hippie smile, making everyone else laugh.
Xiao Lin grabbed an ironclad snail and fiddled with it a few times, but he didn't feel any appetite, "How to eat this thing, the meat looks black and not slippery." ”
Yang Ye smiled and continued, "Although the ironclad snail is gray-black, this is its protective film, and after it is uncovered, you can see the snow-white meat, and the most delicious and delicious thing is not the meat, but the eggs in its body, that is the essence!" ”
"In this way, after removing the shell, it is simply blanched, cut into small slices and rolled together with seasonal vegetables, and the seasoning is not used, and the taste is already very pure!"
Rayson knows a thing or two about eating.
The crowd picked out a few of them.
It is more difficult to remove the shell of the ironclad snail, after all, it cannot be boiled directly in the water, which will certainly cause its meat to grow old.
At this time, the test is knife skills and skills, fortunately, the hunters are particularly experienced in handling these prey, and a few ironclad snails are pounded in three or two clicks, and the meat is completely peeled out of the iron shell, the internal organs are removed, and they are cleaned and put in a pot and scalded with water for a few minutes.
Then it was replaced with a thin knife and cut into thin slices of meat, as Yang Ye said, after washing off the gray-black protective film, the snail meat became a crystal clear bright white, which was very different from before, and made people look appetizing.
In addition to the meat, the most important part is the egg in the body, the size of a millet grain, the whole body is pure white, the egg white on the body of a large ironclad snail is not enough for a small spoon, according to them, two-thirds of the value of an ironclad snail is all on this egg white.
Ma Bell smeared the first few pieces of meat cut out with a spoonful of egg white, and the first one to give it was Xiao Lin, as the boss, there are still benefits and preferential treatment, not to mention that a large bonus has just been given to them.
Xiao Lin tasted it, chewed it gently, and felt a delicious taste that was madly stimulating his taste buds, the sweetness of the egg white, the smoothness and tenderness of the meat slices, this taste was simply great, and the scalding time was just right, there was really a feeling of melting in the mouth, and there was no need to chew at all.
He wasn't a foodie and couldn't describe the delicious sensation, so he gave a thumbs up, "Hmmm! It's definitely the best food I've had in recent times! ”
No wonder this thing can be sold for a few hundred star coins a kilogram, or sold with an iron shell, don't look so big for an iron-armored snail, there is very little meat that can really be removed, not to mention the precious egg white!
Of course, this kind of food is just a taste, and it is a grade and mood in a high-end restaurant, and if you really use it to fill your stomach, you have to eat the meat of a dozen ironclad snails to be full.
Rayson They prepared what stir-fried wild mushrooms, barbecue and other common dishes, everyone was satisfied with a full meal, accompanied by snail meat, only felt very appetizing, everyone ate at least thirty percent more food than usual!
"You say, why do the same or similar creatures appear on different planets and star fields, and the genes of life species are born in different places? But like unicorns and landwalkers, almost every living planet has them. ”
After dinner, Yang Yanchang suddenly said nonsense.
But this topic has aroused everyone's interest in discussion.
"Yes, I also think that the genes that evolved in different star fields are so similar, and they are not space creatures that migrate from the universe, how can they be distributed on so many planets?"
Noel agreed.
Generally, similar species in different areas are the result of biological invasion and migration, or they are deliberately divided, but even on Xiao Lin's primordial planet, there are also many traces of creatures such as wolves and groundfowl.
To be sure, they do not have the ability to move through the universe autonomously.
If you want to insist that the same environment will give birth to the same species, the gene chain is a very complex thing, and there are still many secrets that human beings have not yet solved, but then so many life planets will have similar varieties and be evenly distributed, it is too coincidental and unconvincing.
Yang Ye smiled and quipped, "If we can discuss it, the Federation will invite you to go to the Biological Research Institute instead of staying here as a hunter, this is one of the ultimate puzzles that humans have not yet had a clear idea of after stepping out of their home planet!" Just like the aliens we imagined hundreds of years ago that far surpassed human beings, but in fact, there are so many living planets, starry sky monsters have been discovered, and super-intelligent creatures also exist, but there is no intelligent civilization comparable to human beings, and all beasts and spirits are in the stage of ignorance, how can this be explained? ”
When everyone thought about it, there seemed to be some truth.
Under the vast starry sky, the only people who can really get rid of absolute dependence on power and establish a scientific and technological civilization are human beings.
Xiao Lin bowed slightly, added a few words, and said, "Actually, there are some more mainstream speculations now, the most reliable is that the distribution and reproduction of these creatures are not naturally formed, but the result of the transformation and layout of the previous intelligent civilization. ”
