"Brother Nan, this is a grouper. I'm rich!"
Qiao Shan watched the net full of fish rolling onto the deck. He held up a red grouper weighing seven or eight kilograms and shouted excitedly to Yu Shengnan.
Grouper is a common and expensive species among groupers. The red fish in this net are not all grouper, but also include swallowtail grouper, flower grouper and red melon seed grouper.
They all look red, but when you look closely you find that there are not many Oriental Spots, and the ones that are more common are the Spotted Spot and the Swallowtail Spot.
In terms of price, the wholesale price of flower-faced grouper and swallow-tailed grouper is just over 100 yuan, while the price of red snapper is 300-400 yuan. However, if you are entertaining guests who have never tasted red snapper, you can buy flower-faced grouper or swallow-tailed grouper to impersonate them.
In addition to these red groupers, Yu Shengnan also saw blue-spotted grouper, a grouper that is as expensive as the eastern grouper.
There were also humphead wrasse, but seeing that they were still alive, Yu Shengnan quickly asked the crew to throw them into the sea. If it was in the open sea, it would be fine, and they could eat it directly on the boat, but in our own territorial waters, it is safer to release this kind of nationally protected waste.
"There are so many lobsters. Let's eat lobsters today!"
Bai Jingjing saw the baskets that the crew were sorting and she saw three baskets of lobsters. Today's catch was indeed a big one.
No wonder so many villains want to occupy Meiji Island and keep creating various troubles. Not to mention the strategic nature of this place, the marine fishery resources alone are very tempting.
"Is this lobster a Splendid lobster? Should we release it?" Wang Qiang shouted at Yu Shengnan. He was a little unsure.
It was only then that Yu Shengnan realized that although Wang Qiang and the others had sorted out the lobsters, they were not completely separated.
They sorted them out, and they did a simple classification. How did they do it? Basically, they sorted them by size, but there were several different types of lobsters in one basket.
The lobster family is diverse
Friends who don’t eat lobster every day must know that lobster does not refer to a specific shrimp. It should be said that they are a group of species, just like the vegetables we eat, which are divided into cabbage, celery, cucumber, beans, tomatoes, etc.
There are indeed a lot of shrimps in Nansha. I won’t say much about the mantis shrimps. Although the color is different from that in the Pacific Ocean east of Luzon, at least you can tell that they are mantis shrimps at a glance. The mantis shrimps in Nansha are good stuff, with a high meat yield and are very delicious, but they are too ugly. The price is generally less than 300.
Nansha lobster
"Mantis shrimp, also known as tuo zhe xia in Hainan, have a very good meat yield and flavor. If you order one at a larger Hainan restaurant, forget it unless you have a thousand yuan. The shrimp heads can be used to make porridge, or you can steam them directly for a meaty bite."
He Xinran, Bai Jingjing and the others were watching from behind, and Yu Shengnan also described the information about Nansha seafood that she had specially looked up before setting off.
"As for this lobster, it's called the mottled lobster, also known as the cedar lobster. The most distinctive feature of this lobster is its pink antennae. Currently, this type of lobster cannot be artificially cultivated. The one I have weighs less than two kilograms, and the market price is around 400 yuan. Of course, I'm talking about our shipping price. If you go to a restaurant to eat it, it depends on how high the restaurant charges."
"Well, this smaller one is called red dragon, also known as big-head prawn. Don't be fooled by the fact that it's much smaller than the cedar dragon just now, but this kind of lobster sashimi is top-notch. The shrimp paste in the head can be used to steam eggs."
"What about this kind of lobster... Throw it away and release it. Hurry and release it later. This is a Splendid Lobster. It's clearly stated that it should be taken home as protected waste. Why don't you just throw it away when you see it? Didn't I tell you what a Splendid Lobster looks like? Don't tell me you don't recognize it?"
Splendid Lobster
"Uh, boss, it's my fault. I didn't recognize it. Let it go immediately," Tian Fei interrupted from behind, taking the lobster from Yu Shengnan and about to throw it away.
"Slow down, let's take a look," Bai Jingjing shouted to Yu Shengnan from behind, then moved closer to take a look, and a group of ladies gathered behind them.
"Is this the Splendid Lobster?"
"This is what the lobster looks like. I wonder if it tastes good," Ni Yunjiao suddenly said.
Yu Shengnan hurried over and without letting anyone see, she quickly snatched the lobster from Tian Fei's hand and threw it into the sea.
Even though they were eaten directly at sea and others couldn't say anything without evidence, Yu Shengnan still didn't want to test human nature, especially when he saw Zhang Xia standing not far behind.
"Oh, we caught this! This is incredible! It's called a chariot lobster. Its scientific name should be rhino shrimp. You could even say it's not a lobster because it's very rare. You only catch one occasionally. Uh, well... sure enough, there's only one."
Rhino Shrimp
"This kind of shrimp sashimi is more tender and crispy than lobster, the shrimp paste is sweeter, and the shrimp meat is chewy and juicy. The market price of this kind of lobster is... haha, this kind of shrimp is very rare, everyone knows the price..."
Bai Jingjing, Yu Haoran and Yu Zhendi had been living inland before, so they had very few opportunities to eat seafood. Later, Yu Shengnan resigned and said that she caught a lot of seafood and mailed a lot of it, but basically all of it was dried seafood when it arrived home.
In the past month or so since we moved here, we have been eating all kinds of seafood almost every day, but the first time I experienced catching something fresh from the water was after I got on the boat this time.
They watched Yu Shengnan enthusiastically explaining lobster knowledge to everyone, and they knew that Yu Shengnan had made the right choice, at least he was happy doing it.
"Then which shrimp are we going to eat later?" This is what Ni Yunjiao was most concerned about at the moment.
"Haha, Xiao Yunjiao, you are too narrow-minded. Only children make choices. Adults want both. As for the rest of us, we can eat all the ones we have, and the extra ones can be supplemented according to everyone's appetite..."
"Yeah, long live my husband!"
......Seeing the brief silence in the scene, Ni Yunjiao turned around and went to catch lobsters by herself without caring.
"Dad, Mom, Grandpa, don't worry about it. Yunjiao is just like that. She never hides anything." Yao Meifang had more life experience and knew how to smooth things over.
…
Yu Shengnan looked at her embarrassed and regretful expression, and wrinkles appeared at the corners of her eyes from laughing. You know, Yao Meifang used to be the cold-faced queen, but now she has changed so much, now she looks like a little woman, which is really funny.
He Xinran ignored her man and looked at the awkward smiles on Bai Jingjing, Yu Haoran and old man Yu Zhendi's faces, and burst out laughing.
"Don't be embarrassed, we sisters have a good relationship." With her words, the atmosphere at the scene relaxed and returned to normal.
