1636. Men's friendship
Black butterfly shell meat is the same as ordinary scallop meat. It is not suitable for dry roasting because it lacks fat. This way, the barbecue will shrink and taste will not be very good. Therefore, the commonly used method is to roast the shells together, add oil inside, sprinkle onion pieces and meat foam to season.
The most delicious roasted scallops Qin Shiou had ever eaten were the scallops that his brother-in-law Armand roasted for him when he was fishing for bluefin tuna in George's Shoal four years ago. I have to say that foodies among the French can be considered foodies.
But the shells of these black butterfly shells are not clean and they have to be grilled in clean water for a while. Ivosen couldn't wait, so he had to pull out the shell meat and skew it like barbecue, and constantly brush oil up to maintain the taste of the shell meat.
After the black butterfly shell meat was roasted golden, a faint fresh fragrance spread. Yiwasen stared at the large skewers with his tongue constantly licking on his lips. Qin Shiou was really worried that he could not help but temptation to snatch over and eat the half-baked roasted shell meat.
Fortunately, Evosen's restraint is still good, or he is very obedient. Qin Shiou asked him to wait next to him, and he was waiting obediently, without moving his position.
He tried it with a toothpick in the shell meat. He felt that the meat was 70% mature. He handed a large skewer to Evosen and smiled and said, "Okay, rice kid, take it and eat it."
Yiwasen smiled foolishly. He took a skewer of grilled shellfish and handed it to Qin Shiou first and said in a muffled voice: "You eat the first piece."
Master Qin was quite moved by Ewason's thoughts. Nelson came up to join in the fun, deliberately teased Ewason, and said, "My man, can you let me eat the first piece? You know, I've been busy under the water for so long, and now I'm hungry."
Ivosen shook his head firmly and said, "No, Qin che, I won't give it to you!"
Nelson looked unhappy and said, "What a stingy guy. Well, I won't eat it, you can eat it yourself."
Iwason felt Nelson's dissatisfaction like this, and he hesitated a little. He looked at Qin Shiou and Nelson again, his expression was so entangled.
Qin Shiou said: "Yowerson, go and give your brother Nelson a bite. Remember to taste the food for others first, and then eat it yourself."
After hearing this, Nelson gave a thumbs up and said, "BoSs is BoSs. He has high level and high awareness. He is really good at educating people."
Qin Shiou ignored him and said to himself: "Some foods may be poisonous, so let others taste them first. If they are poisonous, they will poison them. You can eat them before they are fine. Do you understand?"
Yiwasen nodded, took back the meat skewers and handed them to Nelson, saying, "Qin said, you eat it first."
Nelson: “…”
He roasted a skewer of shellfish for Yiwasen. Qin Shiou took Nelson and Bird to pick pearls. He harvested more than 200 large black butterfly shells in total. He said: "You two can choose two of them first. The pearls produced in these two belong to you. Of course, if you need them, I can sell them for you in two days."
This is not his generousness, but the rules of the marine bead mining industry. The fishermen helped pick pearl shells, and they were allowed to pick one, and the pearls they opened inside belonged to the fishermen. However, Qin Shiou gave two. Bird and Nelson were his confidants, so he naturally had to give some favors from time to time.
After hearing this, Bird was fine, Nelson was overjoyed and asked, "Really? Oh, that's great. Thank God, thanks to Poss, I won't sell it anymore. I'll keep it for Paris to make a set of jewelry."
He shrugged and continued with some embarrassment: "Since I met Paris, I have not given her jewelry. This time, I will make a set of precious jewelry to propose to her."
Qin Shiou looked at Bird, who spread his hands and said, "I'll keep it first, maybe I'll meet a suitable girl in the future. Then I will learn from Nelson to give her. Nelson is a love saint, so I'm not right to learn from him, right?"
Nelson punched him and shouted loudly: "Fak Squid, thief, I'm wholehearted about Paris and never messed around. What kind of love saint is this?"
Bird took out his wallet and shook his bank card, saying, "Just say, I saved 500,000 in this card. How much money have you saved so far? You came to the fishing ground much earlier than I did. What about that money? If you said it wasn't spent on the girl, then I definitely don't believe it."
The two of them played and completed the selection of black butterfly shells. They both chose one big and one small. The large black butterfly shells were easier to produce pearls of good quality and large quantity. They were embarrassed to choose big black butterfly shells.
Put the black butterfly shell on the oven, the shell slowly opened, Bird quickly inserted the dagger in, then gritted his teeth and pried the shell open, grinning, "Oh Schet, this damn guy is really tight. Hey, but I'm lucky."
Qin Shiou took a look and found that the diameter of the large shell was close to the volleyball specifications. The meat inside was snow-white and pink, and there were about a dozen black pearls. The big ones were as big as Bird's index finger, and the small ones were like soybeans.
There are not many black pearls in this shell, but as Bird said, he is lucky. Every black pearl he produces is very beautiful and shaped, round and dark. Wash it in ice water and wipe it clean with deer skin. These black pearls begin to shine like running water in the sun.
In terms of the preciousness of the black pearls produced in the Daqin Fishery, these ten pearls are worth more than the money Bird can earn in the years he worked in the fishery.
Nelson also opened his two shells and dug out 2 black pearls in total, but a small half of them were not very good in shape, which reduced the value level a lot.
This made Nelson very frustrated because he wanted to make a set of jewelry for Paris. He needed at least twenty black pearls, and the quality was good. His quantity was enough, but the quality was far inferior.
Bird smiled, half of the black pearls he mined, and didn't care about their size. He grabbed them and put them in Nelson's hand, and asked, "Brother, is this enough?"
There is nothing to say about the relationship between Nelson and Bird. The latter has been the instructor of the former. If Nelson was trained by Bird himself, it might be a bit exaggerated, but at that time the two had a master-disciple relationship. Later, the United States and Canada formed the United Nations forces to attack Iraq, and Bird and Nielson partnered. The relationship between the two was cast with steel and blood.
But even so, Nelson felt a little embarrassed. This was not a small amount. Every black pearl was a huge sum. If you put it in a better jewelry store, you could change to a good villa in St. Johns.
