Chapter 332 Unfamiliar Visitors
The glorious and arduous task of killing turtles fell on Hu Erlang. He had experience in this thing: he placed the turtle upside down on the cutting board. The turtle stretched its head and pressed the cutting board to turn over, while Hu Erlang raised his knife and chopped off the turtle's head and then poured the turtle's blood into the bowl that had just been prepared.
"Erlangzi, your sword technique is good!" Di Wei sighed: "You can start quickly and accurately and ruthlessly. You can compete with Brother Pan. He is also the one who takes the knife."
"...Di Wei, you're a little floating!" Pan Peiyu said: "I'm a scalpel!"
"Everything is the same, don't you come and try it?" Di Wei asked Pan Peiyu.
Pan Peiyu shook his head: "I can't use a kitchen knife. I really can't use it so accurately. I haven't cooked."
Hu Erling smiled and said, "There is another simple way, you can do it too."
"What is the simple way?" Pan Peiyu asked.
Hu Erlang put an old turtle on the chopping board, took a chopstick and teased it near the turtle head. The old turtle opened its mouth and bit the chopsticks. Hu Erlang pulled the chopsticks back and didn't let go: "Just just use a knife at this time. Come and try it?"
Pan Peiyu rolled up his sleeves and picked up the kitchen knife, looking eager to try, but at this moment, Quan Yajing's scream came from outside.
"What's going on?" Several people quickly ran out to see what was going on outside.
Yang Meng looked at Pan Peiyu speechlessly: "What are you doing with a kitchen knife? Put down the kitchen knife!"
"Oh oh oh." Pan Peiyu ran back to the kitchen and put down the kitchen knife: "What's going on here?"
Yang Meng spread her hands and said, "I don't know what's going on. I took out the koi from the refrigerator. Quan Yajing is so virtuous."
Quan Yajing looked at Yang Meng with a helpless look on her face: "Do you know what the koi represents?"
Yang Meng nodded: "Isn't it just good luck? Just like there is a female star who can't sing or dance, her team created her a 'koi' character. What forwarding has good luck to increase popularity and popularity, right? I really don't understand how long the character created in this way can last. After all, inability to be incompetent means incompetent, and fools understand what's going on. At the beginning, it's okay to get a lively sound, but after joining in the lively sound, it's okay."
Long Teng said: "The company got what it wanted and made a dollar for publicity. Anyway, there are so many celebrities. Just turn around and throw it aside and get one."
Seeing the two of them off topic, Quan Yajing asked directly, "Do you know the price of koi?"
Yang Meng complained: "That fish dealer is a black-hearted person. He said that this is an authentic Japanese koi fry, and he sold me 600 for five yuan per person! It cost me 3,000 yuan! Later, after I bought it, the insider next to me told me that a small fish fry that is three centimeters long can cost up to two yuan per person, and the wholesale price is cheaper! Black, it's so bad!"
Quan Yajing turned around and asked Long Xixiang: "Don't you know the price of this fish?"
Long Xixiang shrugged: "I don't raise fish at home, but there are large fish tanks in the company that raise Feng Shui fish, but I don't know who made it, and I don't know how much it costs."
Long Teng nodded: "Same as above!"
Quan Yajing looked black and pointed to a koi whose intestines had been broken and had not yet scratched her scales, saying, "This koi is called 'Chiraijia', and this koi is called 'Silver Scale Showa'. Together, these two fish are sold for 50,000 or 60,000 yuan, no problem!"
"How many more?" Yang Meng was shocked after hearing this.
Quan Yajing repeated: "It's okay to have 50,000 or 60,000 yuan. Do you think koi are very cheap?"
Yang Meng nodded desperately: "I think it's expensive for five dollars per person!"
Quan Yajing sighed and said, "That's because you bought a juvenile fish. This koi has a body color conversion period from the juvenile to the semi-adult fish stage. This period is also a critical period for determining the quality of koi. It is possible that juvenile fish that look good will become worthless, and it may become a very expensive fish."
Di Wei was stunned: "Will this fish change color?"
Yang Meng nodded: "It's true. It wasn't like this when I first bought it. It was so ugly that it was not good-looking. Quan Yajing, how do you know these?"
Quan Yajing said: "We raise koi in the studio, and I usually draw them. So I learned a little. Seeing your behavior, I suddenly remembered something that happened before."
"What's the matter?" Yang Meng asked in confusion.
Quan Yajing said: "After a koi feed farm in Guangdong, two fish were stolen. One was the 'Taisho fourth section' and the other was the same as the 'Yinlin Showa'. Although it is not a very good variety, the price is not cheap. It is about the same as yours, and the price is more than 50,000 yuan. However, the thief did not sell the fish, but ate it. Afterwards, it was not delicious. Well, this is also understandable. After all, for the growth of koi color, there are various additives, preservatives, dyes and so on in the feed."
Yang Meng hurriedly said: "I am definitely the original feed, it is guaranteed to be delicious!"
"Don't think about this! Let's not talk about whether it tastes good or not. First of all, I have to say: It's so expensive!" Quan Yajing said.
Yang Meng shrugged and said, "I have a swimming pool there, and I've eaten much better!"
Quan Yajing was stunned: "I said Mengmeng, don't you think it's expensive as long as you are big, right? Let me tell you that the price of koi depends on the color of the body! In the reproduction process of koi, the yield rate of koi with ornamental value is very low! A koi can give birth to more than 100,000 offspring at a time, but these fry can grow to two centimeters, and only a few of these hundreds of small fryes may grow! And it may not be of ornamental value. If I don't hit you, maybe the rest of the fish in your pool are not as valuable as these two!"
Yang Meng waved his hand and said with great pride: "Tsk, aren't it just a few fish? I'm a rich man now, and I can still afford to eat a 50,000 fish!"
Quan Yajing snorted coldly: "You are really ignorant and fearless. Do you know how much koi cost? Dad Ma likes to raise koi, and his koi doesn't seem to have fish within seven figures! The most expensive koi in the world now is the 'S legend' in Japan, with an auction price of more than 200 million yen! That is more than 12 million yuan! If you have that one, you can try it?"
Yang Meng was dumbfounded, let me go, is this fish so expensive?
Quan Yajing looked at Yang Meng's expression and was very satisfied: "But there are reasons for this thing. After all, the Han Dynasty has not yet opened to import Japanese koi, and all Japanese koi are brought in through non-custody and trade channels. Therefore, the rare things are expensive, and they are fat and big, and they are also popular. They also include the ingredients of "gambling". So the price remains high."
Yang Meng whistled: "Quan Yajing, let's go and see if there are any valuable fish in my place!"
Long Teng also said: "When I go back, I bring a few of them. My father has goldfish in the pond in the yard. I will take this fish back to honor him!"
Quan Yajing said, "The price of good koi is sky-high, but there are too many tricks here. The color division is not good, and the color is not right, and the price is very affected. You look at the two fish, one is sky-high, and the other is not worth it. The knowledge here is profound! If you don't count the 600 fish you eat, all of them are of this quality, and you can buy a villa just by selling fish. But do you think it's possible?"
Yang Meng and Long Teng looked at each other, not knowing what to say.
Quan Yajing continued: "But someone really made a lot of money by raising koi."
Yang Meng smiled and said, "The first group of people who got koi are right? I know!"
As a result, Quan Yajing shook her head: "No, no, no, it was during the severe epidemic that year. At that time, the entire domestic development stagnated. Many koi farmers could not sell koi. In the end, in order to recover the cost, they could only deal with it at a bargain price. At that time, many people made their fortune by reselling koi. After all, they had just experienced such a terrible thing, and the Chinese people were even more looking forward to having good luck."
Qiao Yu, who was on the side, walked over with an iPad and said, "Nah, this is a koi map. All the koi with good varieties and high value are on it. You can go and see it yourself."
Yang Meng dragged Long Teng and left: "Let's go and see if there is anything valuable!"
Long Teng grinned and said, "Okay, but we agreed that I will pick a few to take them back to honor my father!"
"Whatever you want, I'll keep it anyway!" Yang Meng said: "Erlangzi, I'll leave lunch to you! I'll go fishing!"
Hu Erling's cooking skills are the best among them. He has really taken the chef exam!
"Don't worry!" Hu Er said in a daze.
The others were also curious about what kind of koi were in Yang Meng's swimming pool, so they followed Yang Meng and came to the pool in a storm, preparing to see if there were any good koi inside.
As a result, Yang Meng was holding the copy net and was about to open it, the sound of a car horn came from outside the gate.
Yang Meng and his group tilted their heads together: "Who?"
When I opened the door, I found that there was a military off-road vehicle outside the door. What was the situation?
"Master, are you still dealing with military people?" Long Teng asked in confusion.
Yang Meng shook her head: "Zhang Qingru and the others are not considered military people, are they? What are they doing?"
As a result, a man came out of the passenger seat in the car. He looked in his fifties but had an extraordinary appearance and a strong body. When he saw Yang Meng, he asked coldly: "Who is Yang Meng?"
Before Yang Meng could speak, Long Teng stood up: "Who are you?"
"You are Yang Meng?" The man snorted coldly, and before Long Teng could explain, he hit Long Teng with a straight punch!
"Good come!" If Long Teng were still the original Long Teng, he would definitely not be able to take the punch, but now Long Teng is no longer as good as before. He is having a lot of fun fighting with middle-aged men, and he still can't tell the difference.
At this moment, a car stopped at the door again, and Yunlong got out of the car: "Stop! What are you doing?"
After hearing this, the middle-aged man stepped back and stopped: "Well, this is Yang Meng? Good boy, he is good at it!"
"Yang Meng?" Yun Long was stunned after hearing this: "No, that's Long Teng, Yang Meng's apprentice!"
