Chapter 378 That Fish



"Delicious? Absolutely delicious! It's great whether served cold or stir-fried!"

Even in her previous life, Ruan Meng had only eaten it once.

This thing wasn't originally precious, but because its habitat has been affected and there are too many artificial additives, it's not eaten often.

The only time I ate it in my past life was when a comrade's family dug it up on a sparsely populated beach, brought it to the camp, and stir-fried it in the kitchen before everyone tasted it as a precious ingredient.

The third brother returned the fishing rod to Feng Xi. Ruan Meng walked over to the group who had returned and noticed that most of what A Yuan had caught were small fish, including the big one he had caught earlier...

Ruan Meng gasped – it was a grouper! Grouper (image from the internet) – In the eyes of many coastal people, grouper surpasses yellowtail and is the most delicious fish!

Ah Yuan caught something that weighed thirty pounds!

Ruan Meng suddenly felt a little embarrassed to even think about taking the big fish.

A Yuan noticed Ruan Meng's hesitation and asked:

"What's wrong, young lady? Is the fish bad?"

Ruan Meng hissed, "Oh no? He's better!"

"This is called 'wu fish,' and it's even more delicious than the yellowtail we had last time."

"The mullet is not considered precious, but one this big is extremely rare and therefore precious."

"In the eyes of someone who knows the market, it could even sell for several taels of silver!"

After Ruan Meng finished speaking, the people present echoed her words.

"How many taels of silver?"

"Yes! A few taels of silver!"

......

Ruan Meng returned the wooden bucket to A Yuan, saying, "A Yuan caught this fish, so you can deal with it yourself!"

A Yuan looked down, smiled, and glanced at the lively, wriggling fish, saying nonchalantly:

"Since it's so precious, it must taste delicious!"

He looked up at Ruan Meng without the slightest hesitation:

"Young Master has been very good to me, so I haven't had any expenses. Since this fish tastes so good, consider it my way of showing my respect to Young Master, Miss, and to express my gratitude to the young lady!"

Xiao Kai gave A Yuan a thumbs up, though he probably would have done the same if he had caught it.

Money can be earned again, but how can you be so greedy as to monopolize the fruits of everyone's labor?!

Well, expensive fish are hard to find, and good chefs are even harder to find!

Even if you have a lot of money in the future, and can even buy more expensive fish, others may not have Miss Ruan's skills!

Feng Yun also carried her "spoils of war" and came over to show Ruan Meng.

It was also a small fish, only smaller than the one Ah Yuan caught, but still weighing over 20 jin (10 kg).

"Wu fish".

Before Feng Yun could speak, Ruan Meng said, "Brother Feng, this one from A Yuan is enough for everyone. If you have time, take this one to the city. If you can't find a good buyer, I'll help you sell it to the He Family Restaurant."

Ruan Meng has keen hearing and heard a distinct soft hum.

Looking up, I saw Sun Chengen.

When Ruan Meng looked at him, he casually looked away.

Xiao Kai leaned closer, examined it carefully, and said truthfully, "He Family Restaurant has never served this kind of fish before, let alone one this big."

"If it's Miss Meng who goes there, Manager Yu will definitely accept it."

Feng Yun waved her hand, "Everyone has been busy for half a day, just to join in the fun. My little sister has a lot of influence, but she doesn't need to trouble herself with everything."

"We agreed to help out. As long as everyone can get a free meal and have some fun, that's fine. No need for formalities!"

Ruan Meng smiled and didn't insist any further.

From her direction, she saw that Sun Chengen seemed to be frozen in place. Perhaps the longer they spent together, the more he gained a new understanding of the people of Fengjia Village.

Ruan Meng reminded her third brother to carry the big fish inside. The third brother, curious, pointed to the fish A Yuan had caught and asked Ruan Meng:

"Little sister, what kind of fish is this?"

I just heard Ruan Meng say that it's edible, but I don't know the variety.

Ruan Meng: "That fish." (Image of that fish from the internet) Lao San nodded, "Yes, those kinds of fish?"

Ruan Meng: "Call him Brother Fish."

The third brother asked in confusion, "What should we call it, that fish?"

If he calls, will the fish respond?

The people around him were also completely confused.

Ruan Meng realized what was happening and explained, "The name of this fish is 'Na Ge Fish,' like the 'ge' in 'older brother'..."

The third brother realized what had happened, scratched his head sheepishly, and realized he had almost made a fool of himself.

The others understood and chuckled softly.

The second brother urged A-Yuan, "A-Yuan, can you help me catch some sea bean sprouts?"

The second brother pointed to the sea bean sprouts that Ruan Meng was holding.

Judging from Ruan Meng's expression just now, the second brother could tell that his younger sister seemed to really like it...

A-Yuan took the sea bean sprout from Ruan Meng's hand, and the second brother told them Ruan Meng's explanation.

It looks strange, but tastes exceptionally good?

A Yuan suddenly became interested, and Xiao Kai asked from the side:

"Miss Meng, do sea bean sprouts usually show their heads?"

If so, they'll be easier to catch.

Ruan Meng shook her head, "Other razor clams and crabs usually have round holes, but the breathing holes of sea pea sprouts are square on one side."

Xiao Kai and A Yuan nodded, and the guards stood aside holding oil lamps as they began searching.

Ruan Meng called her two older brothers back to prepare for processing.

Du Xiaocan just overheard Ruan Meng complaining about the fish's small bones and preparing to help.

Ruan Meng casually mentioned, "We should go to bed early tonight. We have something very important to do when we go up the mountain tomorrow morning!"
