"It's okay, just give two a try!" Han Peacock said with a smile.
After the boss left with a smile, Liu Xu said, "These things weren't all made by your men, were they?"
Han Peacock smiled and said: "What are you talking about? You should know about Tasmanian lobster. I don't know about the rest."
Zhou Meiren said: "This really seems to be his handiwork. At first it was American carp, then it was European hairy crabs, and now it is Australian crayfish and American bullfrogs. Are these things all over the country?"
"Let's not talk about crayfish. In the past few years, many people in our country have been breeding American bullfrogs. This is a good thing." Han Peacock said with a smile.
No one knows this better than Liuxu. She is currently researching medicinal diets and dietary supplements, and bullfrog has high medicinal and nutritional value.
"Although bullfrogs are good things and have high nutritional value, you have to be careful when eating them, otherwise there will be endless troubles." Liu Catkin said.
First of all, bullfrog also has the effect of nourishing and detoxifying. Patients with poor digestive function or excessive gastric acid are best to eat frog meat. People with weak constitution or illness can use it to replenish the body, which has extremely high nutritional value.
Moreover, bullfrog can also promote strong qi and blood in the human body, increase energy, nourish yin and strengthen yang, and has the effect of nourishing the heart, calming the mind and replenishing qi.
Bullfrog also has the effect of nourishing, detoxifying and treating certain diseases. Medically, it is believed that when people (especially women) are taboo, eating frog meat can stimulate the appetite. Patients with weak stomach or excessive gastric acid are best to eat frog meat.
In addition, it is commonly used in medicine to treat cardiac or renal edema, sore throat or mild diphtheria, heat sores, scabies, edema, etc.
But compared with its nutritional value, bullfrogs have serious health problems.
Due to the growth environment, there may be parasitic bacteria such as Vibrio cholerae in the body, especially vegetables such as pickled pepper bullfrog. Once the food is not heated thoroughly, it can be easily absorbed by the human body and cause illness.
"Just be careful when handling it. Look over there, there are precautions for eating bullfrog. There are also cooking standards." Han Kongque pointed at a paper signboard behind the restaurant door.
Liuxu looked over and saw that there was indeed a detailed introduction to bullfrogs, which mentioned various hidden dangers caused by improperly handled bullfrogs. However, the more detailed introduction above was the various benefits of bullfrogs.
"Is bullfrog really overrun in the United States? The price of this is not low." Qin Mingyue asked at this time.
Han Peacock said with a smile: "Of course. After the Asian carp, the American emperor has encountered another problem. The American bullfrog is overflowing again. The American people are really worried! How to deal with the bullfrog. Chinese netizens have offered suggestions:
There are many methods such as dry pot, pickled peppers, garlic roasting, and sauce stir-frying.
There are many netizens who are joking about the infestation of hare in Australia, the infestation of river crabs in Europe, the infestation of carp in the Americas, and the infestation of bullfrogs. All these signs show that the Chinese are about to take over the world, otherwise it will lead to global ecological imbalance and eventual destruction!
"
When Han Kongque said this, Liu Xu and others were speechless.
However, there is no expansion in Han Peacock's statement. The Associated Press once published an article entitled "Bullfrog with amazing appetite spreads to cause disaster in the United States".
U.S. Geological Survey biologist Adam Sepulveda said Thursday that bullfrogs have been found along the Yellowstone River from Laurel to Custer downstream during several recent surveys.
From 2010 to 2013, the number of bullfrog breeding sites almost tripled, reaching as many as 45 sites per square meter.
Sepulveda co-authored a research paper on the bullfrog disaster in the Yellowstone River Basin and published it in the academic journal "Aquatic Invasions."
"They'll eat anything they can eat, whether it's another bullfrog, a bird or a mosquito," he said.
Bullfrogs that can reach 30 centimeters in length when fully extended have now been discovered.
Last year, people captured a bullfrog near the Audubon Conservation Center in Billings and found an oriole in its stomach after cutting it open.
State and federal agencies initially attempted an in-situ removal of the frogs by killing them all, but the effort was abandoned after their numbers became overwhelming.
They are now trying to come up with a strategy to at least curb the bullfrog epidemic.
Bullfrogs are native to the eastern United States. But due to human factors, they have spread to every state except North Dakota.
Elsewhere, Sepulveda said, they have caused trouble by preying on native frogs, stealing food from other animals, and spreading a fungus suspected of causing widespread amphibian declines.
The earliest written records of bullfrogs in eastern Montana appeared in 1999.
Scientists believe they are descendants of juvenile bullfrogs or bullfrog tadpoles released into rivers by anglers as bait.
"So big? Isn't it a genetically modified species?" LiuXu frowned.
"We also have wild bullfrogs in our country. The big ones can grow to several kilograms. Now only the small ones are eaten, so such big bullfrogs are nothing." Han Peacock said.
"Why not in China? Bullfrogs are so expensive now!" At this time, someone next to me also said something.
"It's so expensive. It's only eight yuan a pound at Bullfrog Supermarket."
“Isn’t eight yuan a pound expensive?”
"The Americans are really making a fuss. They say carp eats everything, bullfrogs eat everything, and there is an even more terrifying snakehead that eats carp and bullfrogs. Why didn't they say that?"
"Is snakeheaded fish so powerful? We specialize in eating snakeheaded fish."
"Snakehead fish predators are certainly powerful."
"What are these? Look at how miserable crayfish are in our country!"
Stir-fried crayfish, various ways to eat it, how miserable crayfish is in China."
"We must introduce Chinese people, who are the natural enemies of snakehead fish, bullfrog, and carp!"
"This thing looks a bit scary. I can't bear to eat it. It would be better if it grew smaller."
"The bullfrog still tastes better when grilled, but it doesn't taste as tender as the frog when grilled."
Everyone had a good meal, and the boss was even happier. He was counting the money. He just settled the bill, which totaled more than 1,300 yuan. The cost was less than 500 yuan, and the profit was as high as more than 800 yuan.
When Han Kongque and his family paid the bill, the boss was even happier. The profit from just two lobsters exceeded 3,000. If such high-rollers came every day, their family would really make a fortune.
This turnover is many times that of before. How great would it be if we could sit here and count money like this every day?
"I'm going to the village to see what's going on!" the boss's son said.
"Go! Let's make it clear. If this situation is long-term, we will make a lot of money in the future." The boss also gave the boy permission to go out to play.
Soon, news spread that a large group of tourists came to the village. The people who came this time were different and they were very willing to spend money.
"So many tourists come? Is it the Han family's fault again?"
"It's very possible! The Han family is getting more and more powerful. No, I have to call and ask what's going on."
"Yes! Why do so many people come here for no reason!"
"There must be something new again."
"Have we discovered another fossil? Didn't you say that those things are not allowed to be seen?"
"That's right, it used to be that poor students came here, but now rich people come here."
The arrival of tourists who were willing to spend money caused a great sensation in the village, but Han Kongque's family did not know this.
After dinner, Han Kongque and his family followed the group of tourists into the village.
At this time, the old village chief and village secretary, together with several people from the village, had been waiting at the entrance of the village for a long time.
"This old man must be the old village chief! Nice to meet you! Nice to meet you! It's really troublesome for you to greet me all the time." The leader of the tour group is quite familiar with dealing with people.
When the old village chief saw so many people, he immediately smiled and said: "I am an old guy who has more time. Unlike those young people who are busy every day, there is no trouble. Are you all tired from coming so far? Now I will take you there first
Find a place to stay and put your luggage away."
Everyone had this intention and hurriedly followed the footsteps of the old village chief. However, Han Kongque and his family could only follow those people into the village. Their family followed behind, and the villagers did not see them at all.
However, after just walking a few steps, Han Kongque discovered that the changes in the village were quite big, so he also followed the tourists to see how much changes had taken place in the village.
And Liuxu and others didn't mind. They rarely came to the countryside in the first place, but now they regarded it as a tourist.
The old village chief was very happy at this time, so he didn't pay attention to anything else. Just now he thought that tourists might have more things, so he specially called a few more people to help move things.
Unexpectedly, people travel lightly and carry everything with a backpack. This way, they need more things, and the villagers in the village can also make more money.
The old village chief was naturally happy to make money. He first led everyone to a nearby house. The rooms inside were all very tidy. It was refreshing and brightening at first glance.
"Hey! It's pretty good! I want this room." A girl immediately occupied it.
As far as she knew, the conditions of houses in the countryside were quite backward, and the interior decoration was very poor.
However, the one in front of me is obviously close to the level of some hostels. It’s really hard to be quick, so I’ll book it immediately.
Hearing this, the owner of the house immediately smiled, as long as he didn't dislike it, and they breathed a sigh of relief.
"Why don't you give me this room!" Another girl was annoyed, why didn't she ask earlier? It's hard to find this kind of room in a place like this!
The men present were quite polite and did not compete with the girls for the room. However, they all commented that the layout of the room was good and interesting.
"Come here, I want to book this room. Boss, I will issue a bill immediately and pay first." The girl said.
The owner of the house was a little dumbfounded. Do they need to issue a bill? No one has told them this! (To be continued.)
