Chapter 921 Xihai Xuanwu was slapped in the face
Before he could finish his words, he saw those men coming in carrying a huge wooden plate. It took twenty people to lift the plate.
But everyone in the West Sea Kingdom was so shocked by the plate that they were speechless.
The plate is a fish-shaped plate carved from a whole piece of golden nanmu wood, and is half a foot thick.
What is even more amazing is the fish on the plate, a yellow croaker weighing more than 200 kilograms, so big that it is frightening.
Only after the waiters had left did the princess come to her senses.
She said anxiously, "Impossible! How can a yellow croaker be this big?"
Su Nuan smiled faintly, "Then Your Highness, try to taste it and see if it's a large yellow croaker?"
"I think the people of West Sea Country often eat large yellow croaker. You can taste the flavor of this fish immediately."
The old man exclaimed, "How big is this fish maw?"
Su Nuan replied calmly: "It's just over two kilograms, not that big."
The old man wanted to shout "Impossible", but the big yellow croaker was right in front of him, so he had to believe it.
The middle-aged man praised: "The warriors of Sifang Country are commendable. It would take more than a hundred people to pull up such a big fish."
The princess rolled her eyes and said contemptuously, "Your fish must have been swept onto the beach by the waves."
"How else could your small fishing boats possibly have caught this? What's your intention in using stale fish to cook for us?"
The old man also agreed, "That's right, a fish this big can't be caught normally, and the fish maw you made from stinky fish is also garbage."
Maybe the middle-aged man came here on purpose to disrupt their performance. He had already stood up and walked to the fish plate.
He bent down and sniffed, then cut some fish with the knife next to the plate and put it in the bowl.
"Whether it's fresh or not, come and see for yourself. You are all experienced gluttons. If you can't taste whether it's fresh or not, don't call yourself a person from the West Sea Nation."
After saying that, he started eating the fish with a look of enjoyment on his face.
Su Liren smiled and said, "Everyone, help yourselves. The fish in our country are small, and one is only enough for 10 to 20 people."
After saying that, he walked forward and cut the fish and started eating.
The princess's face turned pale, and she finally understood what Su Nuan meant.
She hesitated and asked, "I didn't see the contract clearly. Can you show it to me?"
Su Nuan smiled slightly, "No need to read it, I still remember what is written in it."
"It's actually very simple. You have to give us a boatload of fish, enough for 10 to 20 people."
She smiled cunningly, "One is enough for 10 to 20 people!"
The princess's face was completely pale, her lips trembled and she couldn't utter a word.
Not to mention a whole boat, not even one fish could be caught. No one could possibly salvage such a big fish.
How would she explain this when she got back? His Majesty would surely be furious, and her good days would be over.
But on second thought, she felt that Ling Yun would not dare to cause trouble in the West Sea Kingdom Palace, so the contract would be of no use.
Thinking of this, her expression relaxed again, and she seemed to be eager to move the big yellow croaker.
Steamed yellow croaker tastes sweet and fresh, but if it is not fresh, it will have a fishy smell.
She saw that others were eating contentedly, but Su Nuan didn't move. She was even more certain that the fish was not fresh, otherwise why would they not eat it?
She turned around and looked at the old man. There was confusion in his eyes, but he soon understood what the princess was thinking.
The old man got up from his seat, walked to the fish plate, pinched his nose, took a bite of the fish and ate it.
The fish meat was sweet and chewy, as fresh as if it had just been caught.
He looked at the fish in astonishment, then at Su Nuan. Finally, he gritted his teeth and asked, "Why don't you eat it? Is there something wrong with this fish? That's why you don't eat it!"
Su Nuan replied calmly, "I'm tired of eating this fish. I want to try something different today. Anyway, our seas are vast and the seafood is abundant. We can eat whatever we want."
Ling Yun also smiled and said, "Eat less. This fish is not a rare thing. You won't be able to finish the rest of the dishes."
Upon hearing this, everyone immediately picked up some fish and put it in their bowls, then went back to sit down.
Su Liren looked at the princess and said, "Princess, don't you want to try what this large yellow croaker weighing over 200 kilograms tastes like?"
"If you miss this opportunity, Princess will never be able to taste such delicious food again in her life."
The princess angrily said, "Nonsense! We have all kinds of yellow croaker in our country. How could we not be able to taste it?"
"Even if we can't taste it, don't you have it here? Just pay tribute to the country every year."
Su Liren remained calm, but smiled like an old fox. "First, we will not pay tribute to the West Sea Kingdom."
"Secondly, the princess will definitely not encounter another yellow croaker this big when she returns."
"Three, Princess, next time you come, hehe... I'm sorry I won't entertain you!"
The princess slammed the table and stood up, "You..."
But after you talked for a long time, she didn't say anything else.
The old man snorted coldly, "Since you are unwilling to pay tribute, don't blame us for sending our ships to take it for yourselves."
Su Nuan finally understood why the envoys from the West Sea Kingdom came here. They wanted both.
She scoffed, "We don't have any fences on the sea. If you want to go outside, you should think about the consequences."
This is like calling the West Sea Kingdom a pig.
The princess was stunned for a moment and didn't understand.
The middle-aged man covered his face with his sleeves, even his shoulders, and seemed to be laughing very hard.
The old man also had a blank look in his eyes, and it took a long time for him to become angry.
"How dare you, a small country like you, speak so rudely? You will pay the price."
Su Nuan smiled faintly, "Okay, what price do you think we have to pay?"
"Do you think it would be difficult for our warriors, who can catch such a big fish, to pierce your West Sea Kingdom's ship?"
Ling Yun agreed, "How could it be difficult? Our warriors can easily dive for an hour. Not to mention drilling through their ship, even dismantling its bottom would be easy."
The princess's face darkened. She looked at the old man, whose face was also very dark. He shook his head slightly, which might mean he didn't believe it.
The middle-aged man noticed that the atmosphere had cooled, so he asked, "What will your country's next dish be? I'm really looking forward to it."
Su Liren clapped his hands again, and the waiter took the big fish plate away, but did not clear the small table.
Soon the waiter brought in a new plate of fish, and the two plates passed each other at the door, and the people inside could see it clearly.
The middle-aged man praised: "It seems that your country has a lot of golden nanmu. I wonder if you can give me a piece so that I can make a coffin for it."
"Golden nanmu in my country is quite scattered, and it takes ages to gather it all. The sooner this is made, the more coats of paint it can be applied."
Su Nuan smiled and said, "The customs in your place are similar to ours. They all build coffins in advance and paint them once a year so that they won't rot for a thousand years when they are used."
The middle-aged man nodded and smiled, "If you really want to know, the West Sea Kingdom, Luosha Kingdom, Beixue Kingdom, and Yuan Kingdom are all from the same clan!"
Su Nuan was a little surprised and asked, "From the same clan? How long ago did it happen?"
