Chapter two hundred and eighty third whale
~.-~ Chapter 283 Whale
"Yes, whale meat is the Kun mentioned in Xiaoyaoyou. These fish are very big, more than ten feet long and very powerful. The fish tail can overturn a boat with a slight wave! But my men are all good men at the sea. They caught this big fish with harpoons. Nearly half of the whales of more than 300,000 kilograms are meat and oil! That's oil and meat. Those guys marinated them and brought them back in large wooden barrels. Of course, there are more than a dozen barrels of oil!! Those oils are good things you need, and I can sell them at a price at any time. But I won't sell those oils like this." Song Bobang said no one around, as if he was telling Mr. Qin about meat and whales, but in fact he was showing off his good harvest to Mr. Qin!
"A jealous boy." Mr. Qin glanced at the corner of his mouth, and he was very disdainful of Song Bo's fat face, the villain's successful appearance. But his own psychological aspect was a little jealous. Song Bo was very lucky. Not only did he have so much money, he also had an extra road to wealth. You should know that in ancient times, oil was the real wealth. It was more useful than meat and food weapons. It was not only used for lighting, but also increased calories to the army. It was also lighter than food.
"Ah, the meat is here. I like to eat this high-protein meat the most. It is very good for the body. Hehe." Song Bo held the chopsticks on his hand and wandered around. The servants brought several kinds of meat to the table in front of Song Bo and Mr. Qin like flowing water. The meat did not become too powerful, but a considerable part of it had turned blood-red. The meat had begun to deteriorate slightly. But it seemed that it was good deterioration. These foods were all good bacon. Song Bo picked up a piece of bacon with chopsticks and put it in his mouth and chewed it carefully. He had never eaten whale meat in his previous life.
"This meat is really like beef. You can't kill ox secretly, right? This is very dangerous. The government has very strict control over ox. If you catch you, you can't eat it." Mr. Qin said that he knew Song Bo, which was just a joke. Although it was not allowed to slaughter ox at random at this time, there are still many things to slaughter ox in private. However, most of them are rich families, and some money can settle the government. Therefore, slaughtering ox in private is not a big deal.
"I can't do it. I never like to eat beef. Because I like mutton. Haha. Mutton soup and steamed buns are my favorite." Song Bo said that he was so innocent. In fact, he really ate a lot of beef this year. Because the most he had is beef. Besides, the steamed buns are said to have a history of thousands of years. However, in ancient times, it is said that people on the Silk Road would have some small vendors who cook mutton soup when they rested. Those merchants soaked their own dry food and white flour buns in the mutton soup. Then mutton soup appeared. "The meat is soft and sweet!" These eight words tell the true meaning of mutton soup. Song Bo would eat mutton soup when it was cold.
"Haha... that meat soup is delicious. But compared to this bacon, it's still a lot worse. This meat really seems to be a problem. Yes, this meat seems to have a taste that is only the most premature beef. It is definitely not comparable to the old and sick beef." Mr. Qin obviously eats a lot of beef. He tastes his difference in beef at one mouthful. But this is whale meat.
"Do you think this meat is easy to sell? I still want to make a fortune on this one. Hehe. And the oil. Look." Song Bo said, and reached out to grab a big bowl of rice. The oil solidified as if it was lard. Song Bo smiled and laughed even happier. This was his highlight today.
"Your meat is just the average. After all, old and sick cows can be killed. But what I am more interested in is the bowl of things in your hand. Is that oil?" Mr. Qin has a different hobby for grease. The main reason is that many of his businesses need these greases. For example, the weapons made for the emperor and others must be coated with oil on the outside for maintenance, otherwise it will be impossible to use them at all. The weapons and armor will slowly be corroded like iron filings, and then turn into rust and fall to the ground. It is impossible to use them when you take them out during a war. And it will affect the combat effectiveness. If you have been maintained, you can directly take the grease diagram outside and then bring some condom on it, and you can take it out at any time. There will be no word for grinding a gun in the face of battle.
"You are so wise. This is the fat of whales. I think I can provide you with a lot of these fats. A whale may have tens of thousands of kilograms of fat. I think my subordinates can still ensure that whales will harvest every month." Song Bo is very confident that he might make a fortune by catching whales like the Western Europeans in the Ming Dynasty. Yes, whales are full of treasures. The flesh, skin, oil and bones of whales are useful things. This time Song Bo got several bones of whales. He would transport them to his blacksmith shop to carve flowers and decorate them with swords. These things are very beautiful and practical things.
"Grease! Haha... there is a large amount of use in the palace every year. You should know that the emperor's family also needs to use lights." The first thing Mr. Qin thought of was to use these grease to light the lamps. However, this grease lamp was the first choice for people in the 15th and 16th century. It was cheap and had little oil smoke. The lighting was very useful.
"It makes sense, these fats are the first choice for lighting. But don't you think these fats can be eaten? When transporting military rations, fry them with fat and it will not break easily. Moreover, they are better in taste and nutrition. They are much better than ordinary foods. Those soldiers will never complain about the lack of meat in this food. Haha," Song Boteng smiled. This made Mr. Qin feel a little disappointed.
"Haha, okay, I was convinced by you. I will all get rid of these greases, but you have to let me know how you got the process of these whales. Find two fishermen. I want to hear the story!" Mr. Qin is not a guy who gave it to me for nothing. He started stealing Song Bo's fruits. But Song Bo doesn't care. He has the most advanced knowledge in the world, and he can do any kind of wealth in the book "Blacksmith's Book". Besides, he will only sell greases to Chang'an in the future.
Because the meat will be transported directly to Yuyang, Youzhou, who made it close to the beach? Moreover, Shangbo’s butcher shop is there. Song Bo just sells the meat to him. He doesn’t have to care about other things at all. He only serves as a raw material provider, and other sales are managed by Shangbo. However, because these fats are too widely used, one or two can’t do it at all. So Song Bo doesn’t care that Mr. Qin is also going to catch whales. This has long had no impact on his business.
"This is simple, and someone will come soon. A Wu and A Wu. Come on. Something is something." Song Bo called his old follower loudly. You should know that Song Bo's old follower was taken away by Shang Bo, but he still left behind these smart and diligent guys. This time he went to sea to A Wu is the leader and the commander of the fleet. He is in charge of everything, so he called him. The reason why he called such a loud voice is because Song Bo has always been better with his followers than others. They all have their own exclusive rooms, and Song Bo never cares about their own lives. Marrying wives and having children is at will. Although A Wu did not marry and have children, he still has a concubine. In a separate small courtyard outside the yard. If Song Bo didn't shout loudly, that guy wouldn't come.
"Mr. Lang, are you looking for me?" A Wu was very fast and ran over in less than a minute, but his body was draped slanted on his body. You don't have to think about what this guy was doing just now. After all, it's been nearly a year since he left home. No one has any other thoughts, especially when he sees his own woman.
"Well. Tell Mr. Qin about the process and skills of whaling." Song Bo said this time more directly. He asked Ah Wu to express his skills. The meaning of his words was also very obvious, that is, no matter what Mr. Qin is like, it is OK, and it is good to go to whaling.
"Okay, Langjun, it's actually like this..." After Awu and his team went out to sea, they saw the whales spraying with sea water without going far away. These whales were very huge. If Song Bo was there, they could tell that they were sperm whales. That's right, the whales that produce dragon fragrance, but it seems that this time, Song Bo didn't take out the spices at all. Although he really had those spices. It is said that these spices were the sperm whales that could not digest the squid bone plates after eating the giant squid. In the whales
The stones formed in the belly were produced. Awu didn't know what the whales were like. So although he had seen which fish were there before, there were some big enough boats in Luzon to catch which whales. This time, after having a big enough boat, he didn't catch them. So, after the large crossbow arrows on the ship were tied with barbs, they directly penetrated the whale with one crossbow arrow. It hit the head. This was not simple, and the whale didn't even struggle and was hunted.
However, because the whales were huge, he sent another boat to bring the whale back to Yuyang. In Yuyang, Shangbo marinated the whale meat that was about to be broken. The whale oil was also extracted and filled with buckets. With this experience, the boat returning to Yuyang caught up with Awu's fleet with a large amount of salt and sauce. This fleet caught whales and marinated whales along the way and refined whale oil. After arriving in Luzon, they had turned from empty ships to cargo ships full of cargo. The goods were sold to the locals, and then bought a lot of copper back. There were also gold and other things that they earned, so they gathered enough for two large ships. On the way back, they hunted whales all the way.
A Wu didn't know if he was really stupid, but he had to be careful of Mr. Qin. He just briefly said his life for more than a year.
