Chapter 249 Jinjiang Exclusive Release
The first net caught less than 20,000 kilograms of swordfish and some other miscellaneous fish.
This time, Lu Xuan did not put the harvest into the space, but bought another large fishing boat and used the equipment on it to directly drag up the full fishing net.
The fresh sea fish in the fishing net were all tilted onto the deck after being dragged onto the boat.
The villagers who had moved to the fishing boat in advance to help looked at the schools of fish flopping around on the deck and laughed so hard that they could hardly stop.
"This fish is really fierce!"
"I also saw quite a few shrimps and maybe even lobsters!"
"This net yielded much more than our winter fishing this year!"
Li Tie laughed for a moment, then shouted to the others, "Alright, we'll talk later if you have anything to say. Hurry up and sort out the different types of seafood, classify them, and pack them into boxes to make room for the next catch."
As they spoke, the second fishing net was cast.
The school of fish below has not dispersed yet, so we should cast more nets now.
It took an hour, and the fishing boat cast the net five times, catching a total of more than 100,000 kilograms of fish, of which more than 80% were swordfish.
There were several thousand kilograms of prawns and dozens of lobsters that had accidentally fallen into the net.
People who like to eat big lobsters are drooling when they see the lobsters mixed in with the fish.
[Host, why don't you find a sea area with lots of lobsters and get more lobsters!]
[Steamed, garlicky, spicy, woooo, craving lobster!]
Lu Xuan's eyes were still fixed on the radar as he casually said, "No rush, let's first catch some of the other fish nearby."
The swordfish had all run away, and even if he cast the net again, he could only catch a few scattered ones. However, he had already discovered a school of crabs, a population so large that the whole village would have no shortage of crabs to eat for the next few years.
The area where the crabs were located was about half an hour away from them. Lu Xuan set the automatic navigation mode and walked onto the deck.
Before reaching the destination, we must deal with the mountains of seafood on the deck as soon as possible.
He used his gravity ability to "lift" up a large number of fish, and accurately picked out different species and threw them into the corresponding water tanks using his wind ability. With Lu Xuan's help, the fish were sorted and moved to the fishing boat's warehouse at an extraordinary speed.
At this time, the next destination arrived.
After determining the coordinates of the crab school, Lu Xuan decisively cast the net.
Because crabs are mainly distributed on the seabed, the waiting time this time was a little longer, but the results lived up to expectations.
The first net caught 50,000 kilograms of crabs!
The audience who had been clamoring for lobsters not long ago immediately changed their tone.
[So many crabs! I want to eat them!]
[Steamed crab, spicy crab, and drunken crab, the kids are going crazy! (ˉ﹃ˉ)]
Lu Xuan: "I'll make you a seafood dinner tonight."
Now that you're about to start your life at sea, are you still worried about not having enough seafood? It's okay to eat until you get sick of it.
Are crabs plump this season? I want to eat crab roe and crab paste!
Lu Xuan glanced around the net and said, "It should be in season, full of fat and yellow."
The audience suddenly became more excited and urged Lu Xuan to do more.
The second and third nets did not disappoint everyone, and the harvest was not much less than that of the first net.
An hour later, the village had harvested an astonishing 300,000 kilograms of crabs.
These crabs already constitute a large part of the crab population in this sea area discovered by Lu Xuan.
He didn't intend to catch them all in one fell swoop, so he decided to stop while he was ahead and move to another place.
The third group that Lu Xuan targeted was a group of sea bass.
The final harvest was similar to that of swordfish, both weighing more than 100,000 kilograms.
By the time they closed the net, it was already past the hour of You.
Normally it should have been dark by now at this time of year, but it was still mid-day and the sun was still so bright that one could not tell the passage of time.
Lu Xuan said: "Let's stop here today."
Everyone was still not satisfied and said, "It's not going to get dark anyway, so it won't be a big deal to continue for a while."
Lu Xuan asked them, "You've been busy for most of the day, aren't you hungry?"
Almost as soon as he finished speaking, rumbling stomach sounds came from all directions.
The young men belatedly touched their stomachs and said, "I didn't feel hungry until you said it. Now that you've said it, I'm hungry all of a sudden."
Zhang Chengming said, "I've been starving for a long time."
Li Tuo: "I feel like I could eat a whole cow right now."
But that evening, the restaurant's kitchen robots prepared a seafood feast using the fish they had caught that day.
There is no beef, but there is plenty of fish!
Steamed sea bass, sweet and sour pomfret, braised mackerel, deep-fried yellow croaker, boiled fish fillet, fish head tofu soup;
Braised prawns, boiled prawns, salt and pepper prawns, spicy crab, steamed crab, drunken crab, garlic lobster, cheese baked lobster;
The staple foods include mackerel dumplings, seafood porridge, seafood fried rice, seafood noodles, etc.
The fish, shrimps and crabs that were still very fresh half an hour ago were put into the mouth, and each one was extremely delicious. The half-cut crab was full of roe and crab roe as Lu Xuan had said before. Whether it was steamed or spicy, every bite was full of sweet crab meat and crab roe, and a sense of satisfaction arose spontaneously.
The drunken crabs were made with Huadiao wine that was exchanged from other gathering places. The wine and the marinating process were accelerated by Lu Xuan. The final product not only retained the original delicious taste of the crab meat, but also had a mellow and rich aroma of wine and a soft taste. The combination of the two achieved the effect of 1+1>2.
Without exception, everyone who tasted it couldn't help but sigh: "It's so fragrant!"
But if you ask the villagers which dish they like most, drunken crab is probably in the top three.
The first one has to be the cheese baked lobster!
Everyone has more or less stock of other seafood dishes, and they will cook them at home every now and then, but only the cheese and butter in the cheese baked lobster were purchased after Lu Xuan unlocked the anchor mall.
The sour, salty, sweet and milky flavors blend together to form a complex taste that I have never experienced before. Sprinkle a thick layer of it, it tastes very satisfying and even stretches into strings. Coupled with the delicious taste of the lobster itself, it can make people dizzy with the fragrance.
As soon as this dish appeared, it became the favorite dish of the whole village, especially the kids like Lu Chen, Zhang Dafu, Xiong Dabao, etc. after scrambled eggs with tomatoes.
[Wow, it smells so good! Every dish is delicious!]
[The sea bass and mackerel are good, but the crab and lobster are more delicious!]
The wine used for the drunken crab was so fragrant that I felt like I was getting drunk. So satisfying!
[The cheese baked lobster is a real treat. The cheese is spread thickly and can be pulled into long strands. You won't get tired of eating ten!]
Ten is nothing. I'd be happy to eat them every day.
[Forget about eating it every day, but there won't be a shortage of seafood in the village until the water recedes. We should be able to enjoy it with the host for a while.]
Because seafood is relatively cold in nature, it was paired with ginger tea and brown sugar water. The villagers sat together to eat and drink, and the whole restaurant was filled with laughter. It was completely impossible to tell that they had just experienced a devastating disaster a few days ago.
On that day, at least half of the people in the village ate so much that they had to take digestive pills to help with their digestion. However, the audience could eat as much as they wanted without feeling full and enjoyed themselves to the fullest.
After Lu Xuan returned to the room, he took out half of the more than 100,000 kilograms of fish he had received today for lottery.
It is not convenient to draw lots for grains at the moment, but you can still draw lots for seafood.
The audience who had just enjoyed a sumptuous seafood meal did not feel sick at all, and the audience who were selected were so excited that they flooded the barrage with comments again.
Lu Xuan let them celebrate on their own while he put on a holographic helmet and entered the lounge of the holographic world to meet the people in charge of other gathering places.
This also includes the new emperor.
Liu Wenchi, Chu Ming, Huo Tiankuo and others were originally officials and generals, so it was fine. However, Ye Feiluan, Old Man Chen and others were inevitably restrained.
However, as everyone communicated and reported to the new emperor the current status of their respective gathering places, this restraint gradually faded away and everyone's expressions became serious.
While Yunlu Village was busy farming, other gathering places were certainly not idle either. With the help of a large amount of diving equipment purchased from Lu Xuan, they were rescuing supplies.
The most important thing is the greenhouse.
Liu Wenchi sighed and said, "There aren't many wood-type esperians in Luochuan, so we can't ripen the crops early like Yun Xianhou did. We can only try to preserve the undamaged greenhouses as much as possible, continue watering and fertilizing, and wait for them to mature."
Ye Feiluan and He Tongzhi of Licheng nodded in agreement, "Same to us."
Ye Feiluan said, "We can't harvest the greenhouse for the time being. We've been trying to find other resources these days. However, diving is very energy-consuming. The water has been very turbid since the heavy rain, so the fishing efficiency is very low. I'm afraid we have to wait until the rain stops before we can finish."
This is the case even for Fengxian County, which is considered a relatively small county. It will take even longer for Luochuan, the capital, and other places.
This resulted in them staying around their original town and unable to leave.
Although various towns bought a lot of ships from Lu Xuan, and Lu Xuan gave them discounts, the price of large ships was still not cheap.
A single standard room has to accommodate three or four people, and a double room may have to accommodate more than ten people. Even so, the ship is still not big enough.
The suspended buses originally used for transportation were also temporarily used as shelters, with the vehicles floating in the air and consuming energy anytime and anywhere.
And this is still considered good. Those who can't even squeeze onto the bus can only hide from the heavy rain and surging waves in large manual kayaks or tents on inflatable platforms.
Although the temperature begins to rise after the polar day, the outside temperature is still more than ten degrees below zero.
The cold weather, uncertainty about the future, and fear of the recent disaster have caused many victims to fall ill, and the consumption of antipyretics and tranquilizers has doubled.
Lu Xuan asked, "Do you need to replenish some medicine?"
Everyone shook their heads, "Not yet."
"Since the disaster began, these two medicines have been the most consumed. We previously stockpiled enough to last for a while."
The new emperor asked Lu Xuan, "How is the situation in Yunlu Village?"
When they sent people to buy more boats and diving equipment, the people of Yunlu Village remained in their original place. Lu Xuan personally led people into the water to retrieve the warm house.
These days, everyone in various places is busy settling the victims and has had little time to contact Lu Xuan.
Lu Xuan paused and briefly described himself, including the villagers' basic schedule for the past few days.
For example, he bought a super large cruise ship and left the village and went to the sea. He converted most of the cruise ship into arable land. Today he took people to fish and harvested hundreds of thousands of kilograms of fish, shrimp and crabs.
As Lu Xuan continued his narration, the lounge fell into dead silence.
The people in charge, headed by the new emperor, looked dazed.
No, are they going through the same catastrophe period?
We are all human beings, why are you so showy?
