Chapter 237 Eat Bear’s Paw

"Eat, eat, eat. All you do is eat. This blind bear is so dangerous, and you're still trying to get closer!"

Although Li Jun was scolding Wang Luo, the smile in his eyes was written all over his face. He thought his apprentice was capable and he made him a bearskin cloak just because he asked. He was really filial.

"Why bother with all that? Anyway, I can finally taste what bear paw tastes like!"

Wang Luohun said nonchalantly, staring straight at the bear. When he thought of bear paws, he couldn't help drooling. He had longed for such a high-end product as bear paws for a long time, but in that era, there was no place to buy them. What's more, he couldn't afford them even if they were available. He didn't expect to have this good fortune today.

"Uncle Xiao Luo, are we still sharing the meat this time?"

Sun Mingming raised his head and asked Wang Luo, looking forward to eating meat again.

"Share it, otherwise we won't be able to finish eating such a big bear. Neighbors, please take some back when you leave. It will help you gain weight in autumn!"

Wang Luo was quite generous. After all, the relationship between the neighbors was good now. There weren't so many troubles. Everyone lived a stable life, including the old Jia family and the Yi Zhonghai family. If they were still like before, taking advantage of others, they would be gone. So he was not stingy. This bear was not small, it weighed about 600 to 700 kilograms. They could never finish eating it, so they just divided it up.

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone was overjoyed. Now they understood that as long as they didn't offend Wang Luo, they would have meat to eat, so they better behaved themselves.

"Little Wang, Little Wang, let me introduce myself. I am Yang Wanming, the purchasing manager of the Beijing Supply and Marketing Cooperative. I am a colleague of your godfather Yang Dachun. I heard that you killed a bear, so I rushed over here. We didn't get your tiger last time. Please sell your bear skin, bear paws, and bear gall to us this time. We will pay a high price for them!"

At this time, a middle-aged man squeezed in from behind the crowd and asked Wang Luo.

"You are well-informed, but I won't sell them. I will keep the bear paws for myself, the bear skin for my master to make a cloak, and the bear gall for my own medicine. If you want to buy them, go find someone else."

Wang Luoke didn't care about them. He finally got the chance to taste the bear's paw, so how could he sell it easily? Besides, he was not short of money, so why bother!
"Master Xiao Wang, it's not that easy to kill a blind bear. It's usually deep in the forest and you can't easily run into it. Normally, even the most experienced hunters don't dare to touch it. Once it gets angry, no one can stand it. It can kill a person with just one slap. Do you think it can be killed as easily as you?
Well, you can use the bear gall and bear skin, so I won't buy them. But at least you can sell me two bear paws. I have a good relationship with your godfather Yang Dachun. Please give him a favor and give us two paws so that I can report back to the mission!"

Yang Wanming continued to play the emotional card with Yang Dachun.

"Manager Yang, it's useless no matter who you call. If you say you don't want to sell it, then don't sell it. This thing is a rare thing. I finally got it. I want to try it. It's not enough for me to eat. How can I sell it?"

Yang Wanchun was helpless. Even if he used his connections, it was useless. He had no choice but to say, "Okay, Xiao Wang, you can have a taste of it this time. If you have the chance to kill a tiger or a bear in the future, you must think of me!"

"Okay, I'll come find you next time I get something rare!"

Just like that, Yang Wanchun was sent away.

When Sha Zhu got off work, as soon as he entered the alley, he heard people in the alley say that Wang Luo had brought back another bear, so he immediately ran home.

"Good fellow, bear, this thing is rare. Now I can show off my skills!"

Sha Zhu was very excited. As a cook, what he wanted most was all kinds of rare ingredients. Obviously, he worked in the canteen of the steel mill. Even if he often cooked in the small canteen, he only cooked some common ingredients. For ingredients like bear, not to mention him, even many chefs in state-owned restaurants might not come across them once in their lifetime. "Can you cook bear paws?"

Wang Luo asked him.

"When I was an apprentice, I saw a master from Houdefu making it once. I watched the whole process. Although the taste may be slightly worse, it should not be much different. However, it is very troublesome to make bear paws. It requires a lot of preparation and it is not easy to eat."

"Trouble is not to be feared, good food is never too late, tell me what you need and I'll get it, but I must eat this bear paw!"

"Okay, leave it to me. Go get an old hen and a duck. They'll be needed when the time comes. I'll dismember this bear first!"

"give it to me!"

Without saying a word, he took out the money and stuffed it into the hands of Yan Jiefang who was waiting for his share of the meat, and told him to go buy chickens and ducks.

He stood by and watched Sha Zhu dismember the bear.

Sha Zhu took the tools and cut off four eight-foot-long bear paws. Wang Luo looked at the black big paws in his hand, which were covered with black hair and calluses. If it were him, he probably wouldn't be able to do it.

After a while, the black bear skin was peeled off and spread on the ground. Then he cut open the black bear's stomach. He put his hand in and fiddled with it for a while, then pulled out something like a small ball, covered with fat. He tied a slipknot on it, and then pulled the fat down, finally revealing the thing inside, which was bigger than a big pear, brown-black, and shiny.

"Is this bear bile?" Wang Luo asked curiously when he saw this thing.

"Give it to me. Hang it behind the door and let it dry in the shade. It's a treasure."

Li Jun, who was standing nearby, stepped forward to take the bear bile, then turned around and went back to the house.

Finally, they began to remove the bones and meat. This big bear weighed at least 500 to 600 kilograms, but it was too fat, but it tasted delicious. Autumn is the time when black bears are fattest, so they can prepare for hibernation. According to Wang Luo's instructions, the family cut more than a kilogram, and then left for more than half. Everyone carried the meat and left Wang Luo's house happily.

Wang Luo weighed the bear paw and said, "Brother-in-law, don't worry about the meat, let's deal with this first."

"Can't you just tell me to straighten my back?" Sha Zhu lit a cigarette, took a puff and said, "This thing is too troublesome. The old method requires three boils and three stews to remove the fishy smell. I'll clean it up for you first, and I think you can eat it tomorrow."

Wang Luo finally recalled an anecdote: It is said that King Zhou of Shang wanted to eat bear paws, but he could not get them in his mouth, so he killed the cook. It seems that it is not easy to eat bear paws.

"Boil bear paws with quicklime and water to quickly remove hair and calluses, but quicklime has a weird smell. I have a folk remedy. First, find some yellow mud."

I found some branches in the corner and built a fire.
