Chapter 64: Having eaten a deep-fried grouper, I wouldn't trade it for the presidency.

On his way back, Lu Fan was already planning his seafood feast for tonight.

He envisioned pan-frying grouper in an iron wok; the golden, crispy skin and tender, juicy flesh would be simply perfect.

Sea urchins can be eaten raw or steamed, and they are incredibly delicious.

Lu Fan hummed an off-key tune as he led Big Black home, laden with spoils.

As soon as he returned to the shelter, he couldn't wait to dump all the "treasures" from the bamboo basket onto the flat stone slab.

In an instant, the stone slab was covered with lively, top-quality grouper and plump sea urchins, like a mini marine life party.

The live stream chat instantly became lively, with viewers leaving comments and likes.

"Lu Dashen's luck is too good! He got both grouper and sea urchin!"

"I can't wait for Master Lu's cooking tutorial, it looks so delicious!"

"Big Black is in for a treat now, he'll get to eat and drink well with God Lu again."

"Let's splurge a little today," Lu Fan said to Dahei, who was tilting its head and looking at him. Dahei seemed to understand and wagged its tail and barked twice.

First, he turned his attention to the plump, top-quality grouper.

Although the grouper was huge, Lu Fan's hands had been honed to be incredibly agile and powerful through his long years of life in the wilderness.

He first picked up a sharp dagger and skillfully began scraping the scales from the fish's gills. "Swish, swish, swish," the fish scales fell like snowflakes.

"These fish scales might look quite nice if they could be made into decorations."

Lu Fan muttered to himself, the image of himself wearing a suit of fish-scale armor flashing through his mind, and then he remembered a movie he had seen before.

"I am Ao Bing from the East Sea, I am the hope of the Dragon Clan, I..."

Big Black tilted its head, looking at Lu Fan strangely.

"Why are you looking at your dad!"

After removing the fish scales, he carefully made an incision along the fish's belly and slowly cleaned out the internal organs.

"We can't just throw away what's inside this fish; it might come in handy someday," Lu Fan muttered as he set aside the cleaned-out entrails.

Big Black curiously approached, sniffing the air, seemingly very interested in these internal organs.

"Go away, this isn't for you to eat." Lu Fan laughed and pushed Da Hei away.

Then, he turned his gaze to the sea urchins.

Looking at the sea urchin's sharp spines, Lu Fan scratched his head. "These things are not easy to deal with. If you accidentally get pricked, it doesn't feel good."

He found two thick tree branches, used them to hold the sea urchin like chopsticks, and then gently pried open the top with a dagger.

"Hey, it's open!" The golden sea urchin roe was revealed inside the sea urchin, and Lu Fan's eyes lit up.

"This is the essence of sea urchin, it absolutely cannot be wasted." He carefully scooped out the sea urchin roe and placed it in a clean bowl.

With the ingredients prepared, the next step is cooking.

Lu Fan immediately set the fire ablaze.

Place the iron pot on a heat plate, heat the bottom of the pot, and then add snow-white lard.

Once the lard started to smoke, he put the prepared grouper in. As soon as the fish touched the lard, it sizzled, and the aroma instantly filled the air.

Lu Fan sniffed, almost drooling.

While frying the fish, Lu Fan began to think about how to cook sea urchin.

He remembered seeing a recipe for steamed sea urchin eggs in a food magazine.

"Since we have eggs now, why not give it a try?" He cracked the preserved eggs he had found into a ceramic bowl.

Add an appropriate amount of water and salt, stir well, and then add the sea urchin roe.

"I wonder how it will taste. I hope it doesn't turn out badly," he said to himself as he stirred.

Under the heat of the fire, the grouper gradually turned golden brown and crispy on both sides. Lu Fan used chopsticks to flip the fish over and continued to fry it.

"This fish would be perfect if it were sprinkled with a little pepper, but unfortunately I haven't found any yet." He shook his head regretfully.

Meanwhile, the sea urchin steamed egg was slowly steaming over the fire.

Lu Fan lifted the lid of the pot, and a fragrant aroma wafted out.

"It looks pretty good, but I wonder how it tastes." He gently poked the steamed egg with his finger; it was soft and springy.

Finally, a sumptuous seafood feast was ready. Lu Fan placed the pan-fried grouper on a plate and then arranged the steamed sea urchin and egg on the side.

Lu Fan spread some jam on the fried grouper.

Steamed sea urchin with egg is served with some chopped wild onions.

"Big Black, dinner's ready!" he called out to Big Black, who was already drooling with hunger.

Big Black ran over excitedly, circling the food, his mouth drooling.

He first picked up a piece of grouper and put it in his mouth. The tender fish meat spread on his tongue, crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, with a rich aroma.

"Mmm, as expected of top-quality grouper, it's so tender." Lu Fan gave a thumbs up as he ate.

Big Black looked at Lu Fan with pleading eyes, making "woo-woo" sounds. "Here's a piece for you."

Lu Fan picked up a piece of fish and tossed it to Dahei, who caught it in one bite and ate it with relish.

Next, Lu Fan scooped up a spoonful of steamed sea urchin egg and put it in his mouth. The freshness of the sea urchin and the tenderness of the egg blended perfectly together, resulting in a delicate texture and delicious taste.

"This one is good too."

Lu Fan looked completely satisfied, as if he were not surviving in the wilderness, but enjoying a gourmet meal in a five-star hotel.

In no time, Lu Fan and Da Hei devoured a large plate of grouper and steamed sea urchin with egg.

Lu Fan patted his round belly, "I wouldn't trade this fried grouper for a president."

Of course, a few pieces of fish are definitely not enough for an adult wolf.

Lu Fan took out a large pork chop from the storage room, grilled it over a fire until it sizzled and dripped with oil, and then sprinkled it with salt.

Big Black was already drooling with desire, but he still obediently sat to the side waiting to be fed.

"Eat up." Lu Fan put the pork chop into the big black dog bowl.

Then Lu Fan cut some grass, sprinkled it with salt, and fed it to Big Horn and Meimei.

After eating their fill, Big Horn and Sheep lay down under the shed to rest.

Big Black was also lying on the ground, its belly bulging from eating, its eyes narrowed into slits, looking very content.

Live broadcast room.

"Wow, I'm so envious of God Lu Fan, he gets to eat delicious food every day."

"I envy Lu Fan for having so many pets. Unlike me, I can't even afford a dog."

"I envy Dahei more, he gets to eat big fish and meat every day."

"Now that you mention it, it's true. We live worse than animals."

"Upstairs, I urge you to delete this; it's too much to handle."

"That's just how the environment is now; humans are less valuable than animals."

Looking at the big black dog and the big horn that had eaten and drunk their fill, Lu Fan felt a great sense of accomplishment.

Then Lu Fan began to clean up the mess.

He collected the remaining fish bones and shells and put them on his compost heap.

"These are all good things, we can't waste them," Lu Fan said earnestly.

Big Black watched Lu Fan busy himself, sniffing around every now and then, seemingly helping to find any leftover food scraps.
