Alpine Orchard - Chapter 136

[Chapter 136 Delicious Crawfish]

After five o’clock, Ye Mo called it a day.

I drove to the reservoir and fed the lobsters.

Tang Xun and Chen Chen took the net and fished for crayfish on the shore.

There is a faint white smoke floating on the water surface of the reservoir. There are a lot of aquatic plants on the shore, and crayfish can be seen climbing everywhere…

Ye Mo came back from feeding the crayfish, and the two of them were fishing at the place where the crayfish were being fed. They had already fished a big bucket, and they had already picked them out, leaving only the big ones crayfish.

Back home, Ye Mo cleaned the crayfish with a brush, Tang Xun and Chen Chen took the shrimp line, and it was going to be dark after all the cleaning.

The water quality of the reservoir is clear, clean and deep, and there are crayfish in green shells inside. It’s not big, but the meat is full…

“How to make the crayfish?” Tang Xun asked after washing the crayfish.

“Fry it first.” Ye Mo said, “Fry it until it turns red. You fry it, and I’ll prepare the ingredients…”

Chen Chen and Tang Xun lit the fire and took charge of the spoon.

Ye Mo went to the backyard to pull out some chives and a piece of celery. Back in the kitchen, I washed another piece of ginger…peeled a lot of garlic…the

ingredients include star anise, peppercorns, cinnamon, bay leaves, dried chili and so on.

The oily green-shelled crayfish quickly turned red. Take it out, add the spices and dried chilies to the oil inside, and add the bean paste after it exceeds the fragrance…and fry for a while.

The whole kitchen is full of pungent aroma. Ye Mo put in the crayfish again…

There are a lot of crayfish, so a big pot is needed.

After frying the crayfish, Ye Mo poured two bottles of beer down and covered the pot.

All that’s left is to wait.

Ye Mo took out his phone and called Lin Xiaomian: “Are you off work?”

“I’m packing up, ready to leave work.” Lin Xiaomian said.

“I made crayfish at home and asked my parents to come and eat them,” Ye Mo said.

“Okay.”

Tang Xun also took out his phone: “Honey, I’m at Ye Mo’s side…Come over to eat crayfish.”

“Call uncle and they come together…” Ye Mo said.

Today’s crayfish, a big pot.

To make crayfish, half a bucket of oil is used. This Tang Xun can do it well…

The crayfish was ready, Ye Mo thought about cooking, and then took off the bacon from the stove, washed it, and cooked it together.

The crayfish in the pot are also ready. After the fire was turned off, a large pot was filled out, and the rest was simmering in the pot.

A car came by outside and parked outside.

“Is the crayfish ready?” Wang Yue walked in.

“It’s done.” Ye Mo said.

As soon as Wang Yue entered the house, Lin Xiaomian drove in with Ye Ran.

“Parents and the others didn’t come?” Ye Mo asked when he saw the two of them.

“Mom has already prepared dinner.” Ye Ran said.

After everyone washed their hands, Ye Mo took out the bowls and chopsticks, put them on, and then took out the beer…

“How much work is there to finish?” Ye Mo looked at Lin Xiaomian and asked.

“There are still more than a thousand acres. The fruit trees in the pomegranate orchard are dense and the progress is slow.” Ye Ran said: “It will take about 20 days to finish.”

“It should be finished soon after 20 days. I I think it will take at least a month.” Lin Xiaomian said.

“How long will it take?” Tang Xun looked at them.

“The pomegranate orchard has too many fruit trees, and there are many hillsides, so the progress has to be slower.”

There are more fruit trees in the pomegranate orchard, but the pits dug are relatively small. It is not necessary to dig to a depth of 60 centimeters, and a depth of about 40 centimeters is enough. It’s just that there are many slopes in the pomegranate garden…

“You can prune the branches of the fruit trees first,” Ye Mo said.

“Pruning will start at the end of the month.” Tang Xun said. During this period of time, their family has been working outside to help people, helping to carry fertilizers, pruning branches…there will be a few more days of work in the future.

There are more than ninety laborers in total. A person, day by day, counts as a labor force. During this time, Tang Xun, Tang’s father, Wang Yue’s father, and their mother have been working outside for others. Anyway, they are not in a hurry… When

they start working, they should be able to finish it in two or three days.

Tang Xun and his family had 130 acres of pomegranates. If they asked their family’s laborers to do it themselves, it would definitely be too much.

“This is the crayfish raised in your big reservoir?” Wang Yue peeled off the crayfish shell. The shell is easy to peel, and the meat inside is very plump and tender.

“How are you doing?” Ye Mo nodded.

“The taste is not bad, and there is quite a lot of meat.” Wang Yue said with a smile.

“With this skill, you can go to the town to open a crayfish supper.” Tang Xun also tasted the taste, especially when the soup was simmering together, and the spicy taste filled his mouth… He drank a sip of beer and felt very comfortable.

Ye Mo learned this skill from Lin Xiaomian, and after watching her cook crayfish a few times, he will be able to master it.

A large pot of crayfish will soon be finished.

“It’s not enough.” Ye Ran said, “Why don’t you cook more.”

“There’s still some in the pot.” Ye Mo stood up, filled the pot with all the crayfish, and filled another pot.

A bucket of crayfish filled two pots.

But the meat of crayfish is really not much. If you want to eat well, five catties are not enough for one person.

Although crayfish are delicious, it is not advisable to eat too much.

After eating the crayfish, Ye Mo cut up the bacon and cooked a pot of baby vegetables to fill his stomach…

“Are you two free tomorrow?” Ye Mo looked at Chen Chen and Tang Xun and asked.

“I’m free…” Chen Chen said.

“I’m free too.”

“Then you guys come over tomorrow and help me set up a shelf.” Ye Mo said.

“You are so good at talking.” Tang Xun said with a hard face, “It’s hard for me to play for a few days.”

“It’s a day for playing, and a day for coming to help me. Wait for the melon on my side. ” If the fruit is ripe, you can eat whatever you want.” Ye Mo said with a smile.

“I want it.” Chen Chen said.

“How many airs do you want to put up here?” Tang Xun asked.

“The bamboo poles sent are all used up,” Ye Mo said.

“So many…”

“Do a good job this year.” Ye Mo said: “If I make money, I will invite you to go out to play next year.” “Yes

.” Tang Xun then laughed.

After dinner, it was getting late, everyone sat for a while and then left.

Ye Mo and the others cleaned up the kitchen, washed and lay on the bed.

“Can the crayfish in the reservoir be sold?” Lin Xiaomian asked.

“It can be sold.” Ye Mo took out his mobile phone and clicked on the aquaculture website. He registered as a member a few days ago and posted information about the sale of crayfish on it. He also posted information on the same city and Tieba.

There are not many people playing Post Bar now, especially crayfish selling such information.

People from Aquaculture.com and Tongcheng replied to Ye Mo’s message.

Ye Mo also asked Xiao Mian’s father, Xiao Mian’s father has been raising lobsters, he also knows crayfish buyers, and plans to bring them here to have a look after a while.

Huacheng belongs to the big mountainous area, and there are not many crayfish breeding, and the price is not bad.

In late August, the lobsters sold by Xiaomian’s house cost 22 yuan per catty, medium and upper-grade lobsters with red shells.

The crayfish on Ye Mo’s side cost 4-7 coins, and a few reached 8 coins, green-shelled crayfish.

Red-shelled crayfish are more expensive than green-shelled crayfish, and the specifications and standards of red-shelled and green-shelled crayfish are different. According to the classification standard of green-shelled crayfish, a crayfish with a size of more than 6 yuan is considered a first-class large crayfish.

Crayfish with green shells have small pincers, thin shells and a lot of meat.

The crayfish sold in the market are usually medium-sized small red shrimps, and large-sized ones are rarely seen. Most of the freshwater shrimp on the market are also medium green…

There are many factors that affect the price of crayfish, the most important thing is the quality. Then, can you find a strong aquatic product supplier.

No matter how good the product is, it is difficult to sell it at a high price if you cannot find a strong aquatic product supplier.
