Chapter 809: Seafood
was robbed of the conch that he had been staring at for a long time, and seeing Stephanie's smug face, Wang Yong was naturally very dissatisfied, but for the sake of Stephanie being the protagonist today, and she was also the empress of the empire, Wang Yong could only endure it.
After the maids put the conch on everyone's plate, the crowd led by Bhasin looked at Stephanie, Wang Yong and the others, because they really didn't know what to do with this hard guy on that plate.
Wang Yong didn't steal Stephanie's limelight, shrugged his shoulders and waited for Stephanie to start, but after tasting the umami of the conch, Zack, who couldn't forget it for a long time, couldn't wait any longer, and looked at the conch on the plate and swallowed vigorously.
These days on the beach, he misses the delicious seafood every day, but he is shy, and these landlubbers with bad water quality have no ability to go down to the sea to catch them, and they can only buy some sea miscellaneous fish sold by fishermen to satisfy their hunger, but even so, with the daily wages of two maids and several guards, Zack and his party can only taste it. And today, in the face of the seafood feast that he has been longing for for a long time, Zach has the idea that he has to enjoy it even if he dies, holding a fork and waiting for the landlord Stephanie to start, and then he will not hesitate to let go of his belly and eat a lot.
Wang Yong's idea is similar to Zack, although these are the specialties of the seashore, but the seaside province is not very rich in seafood stock and dare not look at the fish, so as not to overtake and lead to the extinction of seafood, of course, the fishermen in the seaside province who know more about seafood are already thinking of a way, and have also begun to study artificial breeding, in order to increase the amount of seafood, for the daily consumption of seafarers and to sell a large amount of inland areas.
Of course, these measures are aimed at shellfish and other seafood, and the amount of marine fish resources in the seaside province is still very abundant, and now there is only a lack of fishing boats that can sail far, otherwise the number of marine fish produced on the seashore should be absolutely no problem to supply the residents with cheap sea fish.
And because of that. At this dinner, Haibin almost brought about a month's share of internal consumption, so while Wang Yong planned to change his greed, he was still thinking about how many gold coins he would have to ask Stephanie for this meal.
Stephanie elegantly picked up the silver fork with her left hand, put a napkin with her right hand, picked up the hot conch, carefully rotated the conch meat inside to pull out its hard armor, and then carefully put the spiral-shaped crystal conch meat on the fork into the plate next to Bat Sin.
Bhasin didn't expect Stephanie to give him the first food, and nodded a little flattered and relieved, and took a bite of the tender and delicious conch meat with guilt for Stephanie and her parents. Secretly wipe the fog from your eyes.
Next, Stephanie took another conch meat for the titular big brother Stuart, and then put the third conch meat on her plate, cut it into small pieces with an elegant dining knife, and after signaling to the others, put the clearest piece into the cherry mouth, chew it carefully, and taste its delicious and tender texture and taste.
Stephanie demonstrated three times in a row, and the other nobles at the same table also knew the true way to eat the conch. Following Stephanie's example, she picked out the tender conch meat inside the hard shell with elegant manners and gentle movements.
When the first bite of conch meat is in the mouth, these nobles who have never eaten seafood are conquered by the umami, smooth and firm taste of the conch. The movements of his hands also became faster and faster, constantly sending pieces of delicious conch meat into his mouth.
Unlike the elegance of the others, Wang Yong first dug up a conch for Amy and stuffed the back half of the seaweed that she didn't like into her mouth. Then all started and competed with Zach, the bastard.
Regarding Wang Yong's rude behavior, the nobles felt very unaccustomed. However, seeing that Stephanie and Bash didn't say anything, these people could only pretend that they didn't see it, and let Wang Yong's cutlery and hands go together.
With Stephanie as an example, the nobles at the other tables either followed suit or began to enjoy the delicacies they had never seen before, but of course, now they were limited to seafood such as conch and shellfish, and as for lobsters and crabs, which were full of carapaces, it was a shame that none of them dared to try them first.
After eliminating the only two dozen conch snails on the table, Wang Yong wiped his mouth, and together with Zack, poured the fresh meat slices and vegetables on the table into the boiling copper pot, and then regardless of the others, he took a colander and scooped the freshly discolored meat slices into his plate, mixed some sauce, and then stuffed them into his mouth.
Stephanie looked at Wang Yong and Zach gobbling up, not only did she not think they were vulgar, but she felt very kind, laughing and chatting with Amy, while directing the maids to unshell the lobster and lift the crab for everyone to taste.
After tasting the conch, Ba Xin looked forward to other seafood more, and after eating lobster, crab and various seafood, he tasted hot pot, and then said to Wang Yong with a complaint: "Ivan, you only took out so many delicious foods today, are you too stingy?"
Wang Yong smiled and said with some surprise: "As the master of the empire, haven't you eaten these before?"
Bat Xin sighed and said, "Alas, how can I, the emperor, have time to go around, to say that maybe you don't believe it, in the twenty years of my reign, I really haven't been to the seaside province." By the way, some people brought some seafood back a few years ago, but because of the long distance, those seafood were already stinky when they arrived in the imperial capital. ”
Wang Yong nodded suddenly, the transportation in this world is not developed, not to mention that it is so far from the coastal area to the imperial capital, even if the fresh seafood that has just been caught wants to be transported to the neighboring provinces, it is not easy to see, plus the cost of transportation, it is estimated that the price will increase by more than ten or twenty times.
But now that there is a teleportation array and the Spirit Void Ring, there is no need to worry about these problems, Wang Yong patted his chest with ulterior motives and said loudly: "Don't worry about this, in the future, the seafood from the seaside will definitely be shipped to the imperial capital for sale, so that Her Majesty the Empress and everyone in the imperial capital can eat fresh seafood." Seeing that Wang Yong was talking, Ba Xin began to make publicity, couldn't help but smile slightly bitterly, picked up the wine glass and drank a sip of the fruit wine brewed by the half-elf provided by the seashore - Peihai.
The clear yellow liquor entrance, Ba Xin's eyes widened, the wine combined with the residual umami in the mouth swirled in the cavity, a special and indescribable aroma of wine, so that Ba Xin, a connoisseur who has studied wine, was full of praise, and kept asking Wang Yong about the origin of this wine.
