Back to the small fishing village in 1982Y

Chapter 481
Ye Yaodong saw that the small wooden boats on the sea were almost too crowded, and many fishing boats caught many jellyfish.

He felt that his presence here was meaningless, so he might as well go back and prepare tools for killing jellyfish. He was also afraid that it would take too long, and the jellyfish on his boat would die, which would make him work for nothing.

When he goes back, he can take the jellyfish on the boat and teach his wife and sisters-in-law how to kill them.

This one has to be steamed before it can be transported. Who told them that there is no processing factory that directly processes jellyfish, otherwise they can be directly pulled to the factory after killing it, which will save him trouble.

Seeing the boatmen all around them lying on the side of the boat trying to salvage jellyfish, he wanted to remind them to send them ashore earlier, otherwise he would not want them if they died.

But the engine on his boat was a bit loud, and the boat was quite far away, so everyone might not be able to hear him shouting.

He simply yelled a few words to the nearby boats, saying that he was going back to prepare first, and reminded them to send them back while they were still alive, so he left first.

Fortunately, this place is not far from the coast. After Ye Yaodong landed on the shore, he hurriedly asked Ah Cai, who was sitting on the shore with his legs crossed, to help him, and carried two large baskets of jellyfish onto the cart.

"Why are you carrying this thing back? You have to kill this thing while it's alive, and you can still kill it?"

"Yes, I can give them parts, will you take it?"

"I didn't accept this thing..."

"Then help me ask. Now the Zhejiang-Fujian border happens to be the flood season for jellyfish. There must be someone collecting them there. You know more people than me. Ask me."

"You know about the flood season over there?"

"I can pinch and count!"

Ah Cai rolled his eyes at him, "Okay, let me ask you a question. Also, the few Indian fish you raised at my place died when the power was cut off during the typhoon, and I haven't had a chance to talk to you. explain."

"If you die, you'll die. I'll go back first. You can ask me quickly." Ye Yaodong had already put those three fishes behind him, and now he has no time to care about those fishes. He hurriedly pushed the cart run home.

Lin Xiuqing was sitting at the back door weaving and laughing with Mrs. Ye and Mrs. Ye, while the old lady was hugging the child and coaxing her.

At this moment, a group of children shouted and shouted, "Second Aunt, Third Aunt, Mother, Third Uncle calls you to help at the door..."

"Mother~ Grandmother~ Father calls you..."

They rushed over one by one, addressing them in disorder.

"Help? Why do you need so many people? I'll go and have a look first." Lin Xiuqing inserted the shuttle needle in her hand into the fishing net in doubt, stood up and went to the front door.

Ye Yaodong had already unloaded the jellyfish from the car, and he shouted into the house: "Ah Qing, come out and help with a kitchen knife and a cutting board, do you have any other knives at home? Take them out together, and ask the elder sister-in-law and second sister-in-law to come over as well." help."

"What are you doing?"

"I caught some jellyfish and came back. You ask the eldest brother and the second brother to come over and help kill them together. I will teach you how to kill them."

"Hey……"

Without waiting for her to speak, Ye Yaodong went directly into the room to get a basket, a bowl, a kitchen knife, a cutting board, and a stool.

Mrs. Ye and Mrs. Ye walked through the back door of their house to the front door, and heard him preaching to them to kill jellyfish, and immediately had n question marks in their hearts.

He also kills jellyfish?

"Adong, are you going to teach us how to kill jellyfish?"

"Yes, I just caught two baskets. You kill them for me. I will count the wages. Someone will send them over later. I will ask you to help them, otherwise it would be a pity to die."

Lin Xiuqing followed behind him wondering: "Isn't this pier not closed? It's useless to say you're dead."

"That's why they have to be killed alive. After processing, they can be transported and processed for processing. Go get the cutting board quickly. I will teach you how to kill them. Remember to wear gloves. This jellyfish is also a kind of jellyfish, and it is also poisonous."

As soon as Mrs. Ye and Mrs. Ye heard about the wages calculation, she immediately ran home to get a kitchen knife and cutting board. By the way, she took two small knives for Brother Ye to serve with them. They were also helping weaving nets at the back door.

The family is going to have a big expense soon, and Sister-in-law Ye and Second-sister-in-law Ye both have a sense of urgency, and now they are only thinking about making money.

Lin Xiuqing was still puzzled, "Why did you kill this thing? Can't seafood be sold while it's alive or fresh? If this jellyfish is dead, no one wants it, but if it's killed, will someone want it?"

"There are still many things I know. If you don't know, it doesn't mean I don't know. There are also few jellyfish here. It's not the place of origin, and of course there is no place for me to use it. This thing has to be killed alive. Only after the block is classified will someone ask for it."

Ye Yaodong watched them all come over with kitchen knives and cutting boards, so he grabbed a jellyfish and prepared to demonstrate it to them.

The smallest ones weigh more than ten kilograms, and the larger ones are more than 20 kilograms. They are not light, and the duang duang ones look very heavy.

"Be careful when you catch it, be careful of its feet, don't get stung, first remove the jellyfish's whiskers that can hurt people, and then cut off the jellyfish's tentacles and chop it in half."

The jellyfish toxin is concentrated in the whiskers, so you have to be careful.

The meat of this part of the tentacles is thick, crispy and chewy. They are called "jellyfish claws" by fishermen, but they are called "jellyfish heads" on the table.

Ye Yaodong explained to them while cutting, and they also carefully grabbed one and followed him to cut.

"After separating the head from the cover, take its feet and cut them into small pieces. When it's done, take its cover, peel off its brain and put it in a bowl..."

Ye Yaodong deftly divided the jellyfish's feet into small pieces and threw them into the basket, and then brought the head over. The green thing underneath is the jellyfish's brain.

In fact, jellyfish does not have the advanced organ of "brain". What they call the brain of jellyfish is actually its gonad, which can also be called sting flower.

He watched them do it step by step, and continued when there was no mistake.

"After the brains of the jellyfish were dug out, we began to scrape the blood of the jellyfish, which is the brown circle under the umbrella."

Jellyfish blood is not the blood of jellyfish, but a brown film attached to the lower surface of the jellyfish umbrella, which is also the most expensive and most valuable jellyfish.

It's just that Ye Yaodong saw that they scratched it as soon as they scratched it, so he didn't dare to move around, and quickly comforted him: "It's okay, it doesn't matter if it's broken, it's like this for the first time, just scrape it all off. This jellyfish is originally glued, so it's normal to scratch it after scratching it like this, and it won't affect it anyway."

"This thing is quite troublesome, it's still easier to kill fish." Second Aunt Ye couldn't help complaining.

After scraping, what remains is the jellyfish skin, which is how a complete jellyfish is divided.

"That's it. After knowing the division, it's actually quite simple."

Lin Xiuqing also finished dividing up a jellyfish in her hand. She frowned and looked at him and said, "Then these are divided up, do you want to sell them piecemeal?"

"Someone will take them all away."

I just don't know if Ah Cai can ask?If he can't, he can only look for it by himself. Fortunately, he can put it away for a while after processing it.

"That's good, don't work for nothing." Lin Xiuqing breathed a sigh of relief, as long as someone wants it.

"Hurry up and kill them while you're alive, and don't want them if you're dead. Ah Qing, go boil the pot of water first. The jellyfish blood has to be boiled first, and then take it out to dry. The jellyfish brain also needs to be blanched."

The old lady put the child on the bed in the house for the three boys to watch, and then ran to the side to watch for a long time.

I always wanted to help but couldn't intervene. After hearing this, I hurriedly said, "I'll come, I'll boil the water, I can do this job."

After waiting for a long time, there was finally a job she could do. The old lady hurried into the house to boil water, but she couldn't help complaining, "I didn't say it earlier, it made me watch it for a long time..."

As long as jellyfish blood is boiled and dried, it can be stored for a short period of time, and semi-finished products are definitely available at more than ten yuan per catty.

Jellyfish brains are not very valuable, but they are very fresh, especially soft and tender, suitable for soup.

The jellyfish head and jellyfish skin are the most important edible parts of jellyfish. After being treated with "three alum and two salts", they are not only not easy to deteriorate, but can even be transported over long distances.

Although he has two big baskets of jellyfish, there are six or seven per person, and they will be killed soon after he is proficient.

"Is this gone?"

Aunt Ye said, still wanting to help kill such a few, how could they have the nerve to collect money.

"Is that how many?"

The second sister-in-law Ye couldn't help but slander, there were just a few people, and she asked them to help kill them in such a hurry, and said they were paid, did you think they had never seen money?

When they helped kill fish in the past, when did they count their wages?
But Ye Yaodong suddenly realized that he didn't have a large scale, so he couldn't weigh it at that time, "Oh, hurry up and put the stools, kitchen knives, and cutting boards on the cart, and bring some empty baskets and washbasins to fill them. Take you to the pier to kill."

The eyes of the two sister-in-laws lit up immediately, "There is more!"

"Yes, I told other fishing boats when I was fishing, but no one at the pier will take it, so I will take it."

It's also safer to kill them directly at the pier, lest those people stay too long at sea, and it will be too late to pull them back after the weighing.

As for the method of dividing jellyfish, it doesn't really matter. They have few jellyfish, and they are not from the place of production.

Knowing how to handle it is good for everyone, even if you pick it up occasionally, you can handle it, and eat it by yourself.

The cold jellyfish is crispy, tender and refreshing. Mix it with a little cucumber. It is very suitable for eating in the hot summer, and it is also a good drink.

They were surprised to hear that Ye Yaodong was harvesting jellyfish from other fishing boats, but why not do it if there is work to do?
It's just that Lin Xiuqing is a little worried about whether it will be sold or not.It was all what he said just now, and the dock didn't accept this thing.

It's fine to get a little back by yourself, and it doesn't cost much anyway. I didn't expect him to accept the goods from other people?
"Ah Dong, is this a good sell? If we charge too much and can't sell it, we will lose money."

Ye Yaohua and Ye Yaopeng were also a little worried for him.

"Dongzi, you should sell your own first, and then..."

"There's still no time to collect it after selling it, not to mention that I only get a little bit, how can I sell it? If you want to sell it in a larger quantity, otherwise, who will collect your little bit of goods? It's not enough for the travel expenses."

Ye Yaodong didn't worry about this, he paid a penny for a catty, and it was only one or two cents, two or three cents, and he only charged 10000 catties for 100 yuan.

He still doesn't even have the courage to lose 100 yuan, not to mention that those fishing boats can't catch [-] catties, and they don't have that much in the sea.

Besides, he has to think better, if this can be sold, he can double it several times.

There must be the first person to eat crabs!
Before you start doing anything, you start to sing bad news, worry about this, worry about that, and then do nothing.

What's more, it is clear that the risk is low and the return is high.

Scraping tens of catties of jellyfish blood alone is enough for him to earn a lot of money. The other parts are not so valuable, but they are heavy!
You can still give it a try.

　I went to visit the grave today, and I have to start sewing again.
