"How is that possible? You have to know how big these talents are. Even if they are familiar with the environment here and the terrain under the lake, they can't take away all the gold here. But with them causing trouble, my actions at night will not be good.
Done." Han Kongque said a little distressed.
Liu Xu rolled her eyes at Han Peacock and said, "It's better to go down during the day. Go down secretly from no one's place. You don't need to take a breath anyway. As long as you don't get noticed, the water temperature will be higher during the day and the underwater brightness will be higher."
, which makes it easier to find gold jewelry.”
"It's up to you, let's do it." Han Kongque said pretending to be excited.
"Obviously you had already planned it, and yet you still said that it was like luring you to blaspheme the gods. You are really committing a heinous crime." Liu Xu said with disdain.
"Shh!" Just when Liu Xu was about to say something, Han Kongque stopped her.
Liuxu quickly turned around and saw the people they were discussing just now walking towards this side. Among them were the two rich men whom Han Kongque suspected were the masterminds.
"You two are also from the mainland?" Song Zihao asked when he saw Han Kongque and Liu Xu paying attention to his house.
Han Kongque said with a smile: "They are from the mainland. It seems that you two are also from the mainland?"
"Pengcheng Song Zihao, this is my nephew Song Xueming." Song Zihao said.
Before Han Kongque had time to introduce himself, two other young people also came forward. One of the young people with very flexible eyes said: "My name is Maggie, and this is my brother Maya. I see that none of the distinguished guests have any guides. I don't know."
Do you need it? When you come to the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, if you can’t appreciate the local food, isn’t your visit in vain?”
Han Kongque said with a smile: "Brother Maggie is right. When you come here, you naturally have to appreciate the delicious food and beauty here. My name is Han Kongque, and this is my wife."
After everyone had made introductions, Han Kongque and Song Zihao knew the purpose of the two young men. The two of them had prepared lunch and came here to entertain Han Kongque and his wife.
Han Kongque was naturally happy. No matter whether these two people were on the dark side or not, Han Kongque didn't want to miss their enthusiasm. After all, what he just said was true. He really wanted to experience the traditional Tibetan cuisine.
After getting Han Peacock's permission, the two young men immediately greeted the people behind them. Immediately, someone came over with a lot of things.
These people quickly spread a carpet and placed a square table in a slightly higher place.
"We Tibetans rarely eat vegetables in the past. Even now, our herdsmen here rarely eat vegetables. The main non-staple food is beef and mutton, followed by pork. I think all of you are used to eating all kinds of delicacies from mountains and seas. Come here
The main thing is to taste our specialties here, so we only prepared some blood sausage and air-dried meat. I hope you like it." Maggie looked at the food placed on the table and said.
Tibetans pay attention to freshness when eating cattle and mutton. After slaughtering the cattle and sheep, they immediately put large pieces of bone-in meat into the pot and stew it over a high fire. After the pot is boiled, they can be taken out and eaten. Fresh and delicious is the best.
Folks do not use chopsticks when eating meat. Instead, they put large pieces of meat into a plate and cut it with a knife. The blood of cattle and sheep is added with minced beef and mutton and poured into the small intestines of cattle and sheep to make blood sausage. There are many ways to eat it.
Available everywhere.
Fourth, Tibetans in Sichuan, Yunnan, and other places mostly use pork to make pig fat for easy preservation.
The air-drying method is often used to store meat. Generally, cattle and mutton slaughtered after winter cannot be eaten for a while. They are cut into strips and hung in a ventilated place to dry.
Making air-dried meat in winter not only prevents corrosion, but also freezes the blood in the meat, thus maintaining the fresh color and taste of the air-dried meat.
What Maggie brought was indeed local specialty food. In addition to the staple food tsampa, there were also milk tea, butter, milk residue, sugar, etc.
Most Tibetans eat three meals a day, but when farming is busy or labor intensity is high, they have the habit of eating four, five or six meals a day.
The vast majority of Tibetans take tsampa as their staple food, which is highland barley fried and ground into fine powder. Especially in pastoral areas, they rarely eat other grain products except tsampa.
When eating tsampa, it should be mixed with strong tea or milk tea, butter, milk residue, sugar, etc.; tsampa is easy to store and carry, and is also very convenient to eat. In Tibetan areas, you can always carry sheepskin tsampa with you.
Those who are hungry can eat it at any time.
Seeing that Maggie brought all convenience foods, Han Peacock was even more sure of their origin. If they were the Tibetans around, they would not only eat these things. If not, they would not stay here for a long time.
Of course, these are Han Kongque's guesses. As long as these two Tibetans did not come with any ill intentions, Han Kongque was still willing to have a meal with them.
At this time, Huangshan people brought over a lot of lunches they had prepared. In addition to a delicious crucian carp soup, the rest were mainly seafood, including fish, shrimps and crabs.
Seeing these things brought to them, not only the two Maggie brothers were surprised, Song Zihao's uncle and nephew were also surprised. Since the two of them are wealthy people, they are naturally not unfamiliar with these things.
The reason why they were surprised was simply because this is the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, the westernmost point of the motherland. To transport such fresh seafood here, the freight is sky-high.
"I can't take advantage of you. Since you have brought local specialties, I will treat you with seafood from our magic city. I hope you like it." Han Peacock said with a smile.
Before Maggie could speak, Song Zihao burst out laughing: "We uncles and nephews can't take advantage of you. It just so happens that I still have a few bottles of good wine here."
What Song Zihao sent over was a bottle of Wuliangye. Although there was only one bottle, the bottle was very huge. The bottle alone was one meter and two meters high. Such a large bottle was not ordinary at first glance, so the content inside
Wine should not be ordinary stuff either.
Maggie smiled and said: "Our brothers took advantage. I wanted to entertain you, but I didn't expect that you entertained me so warmly."
It seems that Maggie also knows that the things Han Peacock and Song Zihao brought out to entertain them are not simple, and Han Peacock nodded and smiled. It seems that although this Maggie is young, she is not simple either. At least she can recognize the things on the table.
This is enough to prove that he is no ordinary herdsman.
"Big lobster, swimming crab, and this is the boiled geoduck, right? These ingredients are very fresh. Such a table of dishes is not cheap even in the Magic City, let alone on this snowy plateau." Song Xueming said at this time.
.
Han Peacock laughed and said, "It's nothing, just some ordinary seafood."
Maggie's brother Maya, who had been silent, also spoke at this time: "This plate of geoducks is not simple, it looks quite big. I remember that this kind of thing is not produced in China, right?"
Maggie continued: "Geoduck is a commercial name, and its species name is Pacific mud clam. It is a high-grade seafood that is respected by people in the Far East, including the Chinese and Japanese. It originates from the North Pacific coast of the United States and Canada.
Because of its large and fleshy siphon, it is called geoduck. Local people do not eat geoduck, so geoduck grows well. However, since Asian immigrants began to prey on North American geoduck, the local
Geoducks have become endangered. What you just said is wrong. Geoducks have been artificially cultured in the domestic market since 1996."
Maya glanced at her eldest brother and said: "Of course I know this, but this is obviously a wild geoduck, not a defective product from artificial breeding, so I said it is not domestically produced."
Han Kongque and Song Zihao glanced at each other. Are these two guys really Tibetan? It doesn't seem simple!
"Haha, these two little brothers are not very old, but their knowledge is extraordinary." Song Zihao said.
Han Peacock also laughed and said: "These dishes won't taste good when they are cold, so why don't we talk while eating them."
Maggie didn't say any more, and directly picked up the milk tea pot at hand and poured tea for everyone. Han Kongque saw that the utensils Maggie used were all extraordinary. The milk tea pot was made of mahogany, and the wooden bowls used were all covered with silver.
Yes, even the Tibetan knife used to cut meat is very delicate. From this, it can be seen that these two brothers are definitely not short of money.
Tibetan cooking stoves are self-contained. In Tibetan areas, every household is equipped with butter tea tubes and milk tea pots. Tibetans in most areas use dried cow dung as fuel and iron tripods as stoves. Yunnan Tibetan tea sets,
Wine utensils and tableware are preferred to be made of copper.
Tibetans in other areas like to use wooden bowls painted with red, yellow, and orange paint. The more particular ones also have the bowls covered with silver. Tibetans in pastoral areas are required to carry a refined Tibetan knife, which is mainly used for cutting food.
It is also used for slaughtering sheep, skinning, peeling and other labors.
The production of Tibetan knives has a long history and exquisite craftsmanship. If you don't have status for this kind of exquisite product, then you can only have money. After all, in today's society, money can buy anything.
Tibetan specialty foods, such as Han Kongque and Song Zihao, are okay for mainlanders to eat less, but if they are used as staple food to fill up, it is a bit overwhelming.
Because Han Peacock has a large appetite, he also ate a lot of blood sausage and drank a few bowls of butter tea, like catkins and uncles and nephews of the Song family, but it didn't work.
Song Zihao was the thickest-skinned, and he quickly changed his target: "Wild geoducks are a good thing. I'm getting older, so I just need to take more."
After saying that, he began to eat the plate of boiled geoduck without politeness. After just one bite, he immediately began to praise. The words of praise were overwhelming. Under his leadership, Song Xueming and Maggie
The two brothers also started to taste boiled geoduck.
Except for the catkins, everyone else here ate some. You must know that geoduck strengthens yang and waist, promotes sexual function, produces sperm and aids fertility. It is definitely a great tonic for men.
Seeing them eating happily, Han Peacock laughed. This geoduck was better than the wild ones. It was produced by Xuanyuan Kongshui Banner, and its nutritional value was much higher than the wild ones outside.
It turns out that Han Peacock has not been released before, but now it is the first batch of finished products. Unexpectedly, outsiders can enjoy them first. (To be continued...)
