Chapter 246 Crayfish

"Xiaofeng, are you cleaning the crayfish now?"

At this moment, the eldest sister came out after finishing her work, and asked Zhang Feng to clean the crayfish she had just bought immediately.

"Yeah, what's wrong?" Zhang Feng asked puzzled.

"Hehe, this way of cleaning is not acceptable. Before cleaning, soak in salt water for two or three hours to let the lobster spit out the dirty things in its stomach, so that it can be eaten at ease!" The eldest sister smiled slightly.

"Oh! I see, it's like washing snails, right?" After the elder sister reminded him, Zhang Feng understood.

So Zhang Feng followed what the elder sister said to raise with salt water for an hour

Because the waters where many lobsters live are not very clean, and lobsters are omnivorous animals, they are not picky eaters, they are willing to eat fresh snails, and they can also eat fish corpses that have been dead for many days, which leads to hidden in the body. A lot of dirty things.It is necessary to feed the lobster with light salt water for an hour or two before killing it, which will allow it to spit out part of the harmful substances in its body and eat healthier
After brine feeding, it's time to start killing the lobster.The tail of the lobster has the most meat, but there is an inedible intestine between the meat and the shell, which is full of lobster excrement and needs to be pulled out.

Lobsters with heads and tails removed can be soaked in a basin filled with vinegar water, because some lobster shells will have black dirt remaining on them, which is difficult to wash off with clean water. Pour a little vinegar into the water, and it will be much more convenient to wash. It also has the effect of disinfection and sterilization, which will make the lobster cleaner.

Grab a lobster from the vinegar water and scrub its abdomen vigorously with a brush repeatedly until the dirt can no longer be removed.In addition, dirt is easy to hide in the seams of the large front pliers, which also needs to be cleaned.

When all the lobsters have been washed, they can be rinsed again with water.When all the lobsters have been washed, they can be rinsed again with water.

Although the crayfish are very delicious, they are very troublesome to clean. It took Zhang Feng two hours to clean the two catties of lobsters. Zhang Feng planned to put the remaining one catty of lobsters into the ditch in the backyard, so that they could thrive in it. In this way, it will be much more convenient to eat lobster in the future.

Put the cleaned crayfish in the refrigerator and prepare to make a spicy crayfish at night, then Zhang Feng walked to the backyard with the live crayfish that hadn't been cleaned yet.

The ditch in the backyard of Zhang Feng’s house is 40 meters long and connects to Moon Lake to the west, so fish in Moon Lake are often attracted to it, and finally they live here, so Zhang Feng will clean the ditch every few days , fish out the excess fish.

Especially the black fish inside, which is a very ferocious carnivorous fish. It will threaten the survival of other fish and eels, so Zhang Feng mainly cleans up this kind of fish.

After putting the crayfish into the ditch, Zhang Feng sprinkled the auxin-mixed feed. Immediately, the eels, fish and shrimp in the ditch rushed out one after another, desperately fighting for the delicious feed.

At this moment, Zhang Feng's eyes were fixed on the water, and he was holding a net bag in his hand, ready to attack at any time. As soon as he found any traces of black fish, he would catch them all in one go.

Sure enough, there were many snakeheads in the ditch, and soon a one-foot-long snakehead appeared in front of Zhang Feng. Although he often cleaned it up, there were still snakeheads smuggling from Moon Lake in a steady stream.

The moment Zhang Feng saw the black fish, Zhang Feng moved the net in his hand, and with a quick attack, he covered the black fish in the water. The next moment, there was a crash, and the black fish had already entered the net bag and became a turtle in a urn.

Then Zhang Feng caught two more snakeheads, but they were only about seven or eight taels. After waiting for a while, no more traces of snakeheads were found, so Zhang Feng walked home with the three snakeheads.

"Xiaofeng caught black fish again? I'm tired of eating black fish recently, so I might as well sell it!" The eldest sister was doing laundry in the yard, and said with a smile when she saw her younger brother coming out carrying black fish for a few days.

"Hehe, then I'll sell it at my mother." Zhang Feng chuckled lightly, put the black fish in a big basin, and carried the black fish to his mother's stall.

Just when two customers were shopping, they saw the black fish carried out by Zhang Feng and exclaimed in surprise: "Hey! Black fish..."

"That's right, the wild Moon Lake blackfish..." Zhang Feng smiled and placed the blackfish in front of the stall.

"Brother, are you selling black fish?" One of the tourists couldn't help asking.

Zhang Feng smiled and thought what a coincidence, "Of course, it's 15 yuan a catty. If you want to buy it, you can take it away!"

"Okay, please help me weigh it!" The tourist was very pleasantly surprised. This is a wild black fish, which is usually hard to find. Today, he was lucky enough to meet him, and the price is not expensive, so he bought it very readily. down.

"Look, it's exactly three and a half catties, a total of 52 yuan and 50 yuan, my buddy will give you [-] yuan!" Zhang Feng said to the tourists with a steelyard.

"Thank you so much buddy." The tourist was very happy, and bought three black fish for 50 yuan, which is simply too cheap. If you buy them in the market, you will need so many even if you keep them.

After seeing them off, the tourist Zhang Feng took two puppies for a quiet walk along Moon Lake. The two puppies were chasing and playing around their masters like children who had not grown up. Not lively.

When you are tired from playing, you can sniff left and right, and when you see flying butterflies and insects, you will rush towards them curiously.

"Xiaofeng is taking the puppy for a walk?" Walking by a small pier, Uncle Seventh greeted Zhang Feng with a smile while sitting in a boat.

"Yes, how is Uncle Seven's business recently?" Zhang Feng nodded and asked.

"Hehe, that's not the case. You can't make a fortune even if you're hungry." Uncle Seven shook his head and said with a smile.

"Soon, your business is coming soon." The National Day is coming, Moon Lake is full of tourists at this time of year, and this is a good time for the villagers to make money.

"Hehe, the business on the National Day is good! But it's still not as good as you, Xiaofeng. By the way, Xiaofeng, my land has been dug up, and I'm just waiting for your vegetable seeds. When will you give them to us?" Uncle Xiao Qi couldn't wait. He also joined Zhang Feng's vegetable planting plan, knowing that this is a big money-making project. As long as he does a good job and encourages two acres of land, he can earn 20 million a year at least.

"I've prepared the vegetable seeds, and you can come to my house to get them tonight." Zhang Feng was also very happy to see Uncle Seven so active. It seemed that everyone was very confident in his plan.

"Haha, that's good, I'll go to your house to get it tonight." Little Seventh Uncle was very happy, and the plan to make a fortune was finally about to start.

After chatting for a few more words, Zhang Feng took his leave and left, and continued to walk around Moon Lake with the puppy Principle.
