Weng Qian: Do you want to fight now?

Lu Ao: Yeah

Weng Qian ate a lemon: Damn! This is okay? Is the sea your family’s breeding farm? You can catch whatever fish you want?

Lu Ao was too lazy to pay attention to his words: If you want, I will go out and try tomorrow morning.

Weng Qian: Yes, yes! It’s best to get two more. We have a lot of family members, so I won’t mind even if you give me ten or eight.

Lu Ao: You are so beautiful! Just one, no more. You can go out and buy the fish you need for the other tables except the one you eat at.

Weng Qian: Hehehe, I can buy it from you.

Lu Ao: I won’t fight any more. Without further ado, what are you going to do with the catfish you bought? Can I courier it to you?

Weng Qian: I just took a look. Logistics is relatively slow now. It will probably take a day or two for you to express it. It will cost 40,000 to 50,000 yuan to send it directly by helicopter, which is not cost-effective.

Lu Ao: Then?

Weng Qian: How about this? Can you help me take out the fish maw and dry it, and then directly beat the fish meat into fish balls? Can you dry the fish maw?

Lu Ao: Yes, no problem. I have never eaten fish balls.

Weng Qian: That’s okay. We’ll also beat you with a machine. Just find a machine and beat it into fish balls. It will be easier to send them after they’re frozen.

Lu Ao: Then I’ll try it first

After the two communicated well, Lu Ao went to the freezer and took out the big anchovy.

Song Zhou followed him over to help and asked, "Let's do it now."

"Let's deal with it quickly while it's still fresh."

The fish they had was so big that it didn't freeze hard even after being frozen for several hours. The fish meat is still elastic when taken out.

Lu Ao put the fish on the scale and weighed it. The fish weighed 93.6 kilograms.

He took a photo of the weight of the fish and sent it to Weng Qian.

During the previous transaction, neither of them thought of weighing themselves.

Lu Ao only estimated that it was about one hundred pounds, and Weng Qian only thought that the fish was big enough.

He probably had an idea of ​​the weight of the fish, and now the weight was just within his estimate.

Seeing that Lu Ao was already preparing to process the fish, Weng Qian exclaimed: Should we do it now? If there is no sunlight at night, can the fish bladder still be dried?

Lu Ao: The north wind is strong, no problem

Lu Ao: I won’t tell you anymore, I want to start processing the fish

After typing this sentence, Lu Ao looked at the big fish in front and felt quite helpless.

In theory, he does know how to dry isinglass, but in fact, he has never done it once. It is indeed a bit difficult to do it now.

Songzhou saw him holding a knife, standing in front of the fish and gesticulating, and smiled, "I'll do it."

Lu Ao breathed a sigh of relief and quickly handed the knife in his hand to Song Zhou.

Lu Ao didn't leave even after handing over the knife. He squatted beside him and kept mumbling, "The most important thing they value when buying this fish is the swim bladder in its belly. Let's be careful."

Song Zhou glanced at him, "Are you worried about my ability to use a knife?"

"Don't worry, don't worry." Lu Ao quickly flattered him.

Songzhou smiled and slashed with his knife, revealing the internal organs in the fish's belly with ease.

Lu Ao quickly went to get several clean basins to put the fish offal.

Except for the roe and swim bladder, no other internal organs were needed, and they only filled two pots in total.

When the fish internal organs were taken out, it smelled very fishy.

When Fatty smelled the smell, Shi Shi licked his nose and sat obediently beside him to watch.

Seeing that it was drooling, Lu Ao hurriedly pushed it and said, "You ate shrimp at night, don't touch this, stay away."

"It's okay." Song Zhou looked up and said, "It doesn't dare to move."

"Let's go." Lu Ao squatted next to Pang Dun, "I'll ask him how to deal with the fish roe later. Now let's deal with the swim bladder first?"

"You coming or me?"

"Come on," Lu Ao said a little embarrassed, "I'm not good at this."

Song Zhou smiled and used his long fingers to tear open the fascia on the surface of the fish bladder.

To dry isinglass, the raw materials are very particular. It is best to choose a large and thick fish bladder, then tear off the fascia and blood vessels on the surface, remove all debris, leaving only the swim bladder, and then hang it to dry.

Song Zhou slowly cleaned the fish bladder. Under his treatment, the swim bladder quickly became snow-white without any debris on it.

In this way, one swim bladder is taken care of.

Lu Ao found a dustpan, carefully placed the fish maw on the dustpan, and then sent it to the roof to dry.

Their small building is not very high, and some small animals usually visit it.

Lu Ao looked at the isinglass on the roof and was a little worried, "How about I bring a cover over to avoid being harmed by birds or cats."

"No need. Just warn them."

As he spoke, Songzhou's breath spread.

Lu Ao stood next to Song Zhou and heard nothing, but he could clearly feel that all nearby creatures had been warned.

Even he himself did not want to destroy the isinglass in front of him from the bottom of his heart.

"Isn't this skill very useful?"

"I teach you."

As soon as Song Zhou said these words, Lu Ao recalled the time when he was learning about rainfall. At that time, he didn't touch the edge at all. It was very difficult to learn this.

It was so difficult that when I heard that I wanted to learn something from Song Zhou, I felt a little weak.

He coughed slightly and said, "As long as you are there, I won't learn this."

Lu Ao will be very busy in the next few days.

The New Year is coming soon, and his New Year gifts haven’t been given out yet. If he doesn’t give out all the New Year gifts before the 28th of the new year, after the latest express delivery stops running, if he wants to send them again, he will have to wait until next year.

Because he agreed to give Weng Qian rat spots, in addition to preparing for the New Year gift, he also had to go fishing in the sea where he had seen rat spots. After finally catching two rat spots, he went to the fish ball processing factory to kill the catfish.

We took the fish balls back, packed them together, and sent the chilled package to Weng Qian.

By the time all this work was over, it was already the twenty-sixth of the year.

Lu Ao's family hasn't prepared the New Year's goods yet, and they haven't taken care of the hygiene at home. There are a lot of things going on inside and outside.

Song Zhou has now shortened his working hours and only works about six hours a day. The rest of the time is spent with Lu Ao dealing with New Year matters.

Seeing Lu Ao's nervousness, Song Zhou laughed at him and said, "There are only two of us at home, so we can live however we want, and there are no specific standards, so there is no need to rush."

"That won't work. After all, this is the first year the two of us have spent, so we need to pay attention to it." Lu Ao held his hand, "Look at what kind of Spring Festival couplets we will use. I feel that this pure calligraphy calligraphy is good, and this one is good."

The hot stamping ones are also good, and they are all very grand.”

Song Zhou compared them carefully and said, "Choose the gold-gilded one. The pure calligraphy writing on this one is not very good."

"I think you are quite stylish. You look at the brush and you are like a dragon and a snake -" Lu Ao suddenly reacted and stared at Song Zhou with his eyes, "I forgot to ask, do you know how to write calligraphy?"

ah?"

Song Zhou has lived for so many years, and it is natural that he can write a few calligraphy strokes. He can not only write calligraphy, but also Chinese painting and musical instruments. However, he was busy with work and did not play often, and Lu Ao didn't know that yet.

Songzhou nodded with a smile.

Lu Ao immediately said: "Since you can write calligraphy, then we won't use other people's calligraphy. Can you do it?"

"What's wrong with this?"

"Then I'll buy red paper and writing brushes tomorrow. Do you have any special requirements?"

"No special requirements, don't be busy. I still have a lot of writing brushes there. Tomorrow we will go shopping in Xinluzhou and buy some New Year's goods and come back."

Lu Ao was so busy these days that he forgot that they could still go shopping in New Luzhou. His thoughts were almost limited to the town. After hearing what Song Zhou said, he sighed softly, "That's okay, then.

Let’s just go on a date.”

"I see there is a ballet tour tomorrow, do you want to go?"

"go!"

Putting aside the family chores, the feeling of simply shopping is particularly wonderful. Lu Ao and Song Zhou are not short of money. They just want to see whether they like what they see, without considering the factor of money.

This caused Lu Ao to spend the whole morning shopping.

Songzhou would teleport. If they bought too many things and were too lazy to carry them, Songzhou would teleport back, put the things away first, and then teleport back to continue shopping.

There are countless novel and exquisite things to eat, drink, play, and use in New Luzhou. After a day of shopping, Lu Ao changed everything in his home, such as lamps, stools, cabinets, and even

Also includes TVs, washing machines, etc.

The hard furnishings at home cannot be changed for the time being, but after the soft furnishings are tidied up, the atmosphere of the entire home will be different.
