Chapter 671: Crocodile Banquet
"You can think of this kind of grain trade as paying protection fees. There are many countries in Tianzhu, and the largest country has only one million people and is not as big as our county.
There are so many small countries that need to prevent annexation by neighboring neighbors and invasion by foreign enemies. They have almost no other choice but to hug each other. "
Xu Dong analyzed carefully.
"Then if you say that, as long as you are from Daxia, doesn't it mean that everyone can go to Tianzhu Peninsula to do business and everyone can make a fortune?"
Zhou Yinsheng's heartbeat couldn't help but skip a beat.
Although he is very satisfied with his current job.
But that doesn't mean he doesn't want to get rich.
Xu Dong shook his head: "How can it be that easy? Although Mike looks harmless, in fact, he has a wider network of contacts than me, and his methods are powerful!
Let's put it this way, any business involving import and export is not something ordinary people can do. To do this business, you must not only have strong funds, but also have connections. "
"It turns out to be so complicated!" Zhou Yin sighed.
"Of course, let me give you a simple example. Even if you are lucky and buy rice from Tianzhu people, you have to transport the goods back next, right?
However, during the transportation process, you also need to face various risks. If you are not careful, you will fall short. There are too many twists and turns. "
"Director Xu, why don't you do foreign trade business?"
Zhou Yinsheng asked curiously.
"Well, let me tell you this, foreign trade business is all about making quick money, and the competition within the industry is particularly fierce. I personally have limited energy and don't want to join in the fun."
What Xu Dong said was half true and half false.
In fact, the real reason is very simple. The water in the foreign trade market is too muddy, and it is extremely unwise to rush in. It doesn't matter that he is timid, but he doesn't want to get involved anyway.
Industry is the foundation for their family to settle down and live.
Everything else is false.
Zhou Yinsheng was filled with admiration: "Dr. Xu, people like you are the real entrepreneurs."
"Compared to many seniors, I'm still far behind."
Xu Dong waved his hand modestly.
"If you are not included? Then there are probably not many real entrepreneurs in the country. You have invested so much real money in Xinke Seaweed. If it had been anyone else, they would have taken away the money and left long ago."
Zhou Yinsheng pretended to be indignant.
Who says tough guys can't suck up?
"Haha... There are not many people who can see that I have worked so hard. You, Zhou, are one of them."
Xu Dong gave the other party high praise.
This is something he is quite proud of.
People, as long as they live in this world, they cannot escape the word "fame and wealth".
…
At around six o'clock in the evening, rice and saltwater crocodiles were delivered to the large manor one after another. Xu Dong took the opportunity to distribute the rice to everyone except the security team members, including the chef and several servants.
Little Huzi, who had just returned from kindergarten, hid behind his grandfather with a curious face, secretly looking at the big monster in the iron cage.
"Grandpa, what is this?"
"This is a crocodile."
"What is a crocodile?"
"The crocodile is..."
Xu Bin was at a loss for words.
Xu Dong took over: "Little Huzi, my second grandfather told you that the crocodile is a kind of reptile. It is the same generation as the dinosaur. Do you think it looks like a Tyrannosaurus rex?"
"picture!"
Xiao Huzi said excitedly.
The little guy has a lot of dinosaur toys and has watched cartoons and comics about dinosaurs, so he is no stranger to dinosaurs.
"Do you want to eat crocodile meat, little tiger?"
The little tiger hesitated for a moment: "The crocodile is too fierce, and its mouth is so big, the little tiger is scared."
"Don't be afraid, the crocodile is in a cage and won't come out to bite people."
Xu Bin quickly comforted him.
Xu Dong smiled and touched the little guy's head:
"When the second grandpa defeats the crocodile, can you treat the little tiger to eat the crocodile meat?"
"Okay, second grandpa, come on!"
Xiao Huzi raised his fist.
Xu Dong nodded, and then asked his eldest niece to quickly lead the two brothers into the house. The next scene was too bloody and not suitable for children.
Xu Bin rolled up his sleeves and asked enthusiastically: "Lao San, how do you kill this crocodile?"
Xu Dong shook his head and turned to look at his chef.
"Master Zhong, have you ever killed a crocodile before?"
"I have killed him before." Chef Zhong nodded, "I just never killed such a big one."
"Are you sure?"
"I definitely can't do it alone. I need help from Captain Zhou and others."
Zhou Yinsheng quickly agreed: "Master Zhong, if you have anything to do, just give me your instructions."
"Okay, you immediately arrange for someone to fetch some buckets of water. Let's give the crocodile a good rinse first and wait until it's clean before we start."
"I'll go right away."
An hour later, with the full cooperation of everyone, the saltwater crocodile was finally killed, and Chef Zhong began to skin the crocodile.
The crocodile skin was so hard that it took more than an hour to peel it off. It was not until about ten o'clock in the evening that the whole crocodile was finished.
Xu Dong arranged for Captain Zhou to send fifty kilograms of crocodile meat to Mike's family overnight. This is called reciprocating a favor.
…
At noon the next day, Master Zhong couldn't wait to prepare a crocodile feast, with a total of six dishes and one soup.
They are Braised Alligator, Stir-fried Alligator with Colorful Vegetables, Kung Pao Alligator, Pork Stewed Alligator, Salt and Pepper Fish Nuggets, Grilled Alligator Skewers, and American Ginseng and Alligator Soup.
"Dad, Mom, we are back."
Lele shouted loudly as soon as she got off the car.
Xu Dong specially called his daughters back for the crocodile meat meal at noon. In fact, it will be the Spring Festival holiday in two days.
Since there is no winter vacation this year, there are only five days off during the Chinese New Year, including the weekend, and we have to return to school on the third day of the first lunar month.
"Hurry up and wash your hands. We'll wait for you two to come back for dinner." Yang Lina urged.
After washing his hands, Lele couldn't wait to confirm with his father: "Dad, did you really buy a crocodile?"
Xu Dong smiled and nodded:
"How can this be fake? Didn't I send you a video? Didn't you receive it?"
"I received it, but it's too unbelievable. I showed the video to my classmates, and they all said that the video was fake and downloaded from the Internet."
Keke interrupted and said: "Dad, Lele almost had a fight with classmates because of this."
"Humph, it must be Feng Ming who reported it. I'm so nice to her." Lele said unhappily.
"Who is Feng Ming?"
Xu Dong asked curiously.
"Feng Ming is my little sister's roommate. There are only two people in their dormitory at present, and the other two are on the way."
Keke replied.
The two places are too far apart, and the new students in China will have to report here about a month later. Fortunately, the first month is military training time, which will not delay normal teaching.
By the way, Xiaoyun is also among them.
Unfortunately, she failed to get into Sydney University.
The other party is studying at Sydney Teachers College, which is also located in the university town, but the admission score is nearly 50 points lower than that of Sydney University.
Xu Dong hurriedly advised: "Okay, I guess Feng Ming is also for your own good. He is afraid that you will be bullied, so he told your sister, don't blame him wrongly."
"What a joke, I will be bullied?"
Lele said with disdain.
