Because it is close to the sea, the table is basically filled with seafood.
Sea crabs, octopus, various conches, clams, oysters, and sea fish.
Most of the dishes were meat, with only one vegetable, stir-fried shredded radish, which didn't look very fresh.
But it is understandable that what islands lack most are two things: one is fresh water, and the other is land.
Maybe these vegetables were shipped from other places by boat, and they would wilt after being left for a day or two.
Director Zheng: "We don't have much else here, but we have a lot of seafood. When you leave, be sure to take some with you."
On the islands, seafood is particularly cheap.
Pearls too.
If you pick up a clam shell on the beach, you will find a pearl inside.
The locals don't care about these things at all.
After the pearl factory opened, people started to pay some attention to it because they started spending money to acquire it.
However, the purchase price is not high, not as much as the money you get from catching fish in the sea, so apart from the professional picking team, only the children go to pick up the clam shells and then exchange the pearls inside for some candy.
Some seafood had a fishy smell, which Jian Shu was not used to. Several times, she almost put down her chopsticks.
Li Jinfeng didn't pay attention at first because she likes eating seafood.
She loves it whether it is steamed or braised.
At this moment, he was eating with great enthusiasm.
Suddenly, Jian Shu beside Xiao Bao asked, "Are you feeling unwell?"
In front of Director Zheng, Jian Shu was embarrassed to say that she couldn't stand the fishy smell of seafood. After all, other people had worked hard to make these things.
Not only do I not charge them money, I also spend time with them.
If she said something bad, wouldn't she hurt others' feelings?
Jian Shu: "Nothing, just... maybe I'm seasick from being on the boat for so long!"
Li Jinfeng felt something was wrong when she heard this. Jian Shu was very happy when they were on the boat.
No seasickness.
Suddenly, she saw the almost untouched seafood in Jian Shu's bowl, and she understood something.
Li Jinfeng stood up and said, "Director Zheng, where is your kitchen? Can I go over there?"
Director Zheng: "What's the matter?"
"Nothing, I just suddenly thought of another way to eat seafood. I haven't had the chance to eat it before, so I want to give it a try this time."
Director Zheng immediately arranged for someone to take Li Jinfeng to the kitchen.
Li Jinfeng took a bowl, poured soy sauce, a little sugar, white vinegar, oyster sauce into the bowl, put in chopped ginger, garlic and green onion segments, and took out some mustard under the cover of her shoulder bag, squeezed it into the prepared sauce, mixed it well, and took the bowl to the cafeteria.
"Jian Shu, try this dipping sauce. It's another way to eat seafood, dip it in sauce!"
Lu Jianguo and Meimei, who had eaten the dipping sauce prepared by Li Jinfeng at home, also asked Li Jinfeng for a small plate.
At first, Jian Shu just did what Li Jinfeng said.
As a result, after dipping it in the sauce, the fishy smell disappeared.
The taste in my mouth is indescribable!
Jian Shu gave Li Jinfeng a grateful smile. With this dipping sauce, she could eat seafood with confidence.
Director Zheng did not participate. He was a native islander and had eaten raw seafood, let alone these cooked little things.
After dinner, Director Zheng arranged temporary accommodation for Li Jinfeng and the others.
It was the home of a local family. They had two rooms, one for themselves and one for entertaining guests, just like it is now.
