Chapter 353: Go to Taoyuan Village to get fish(2/3)
And it also has a more familiar name, Wuchang fish.
The name Wuchang fish comes from Wuchang, Hubei Province.
However, it is not Wuchang, one of the three towns in Wushi today, but ancient Wuchang, which is now EZ.
The origin of its name can be traced back to the end of the Three Kingdoms. At that time, Sun Hao, the leader of the Wu Kingdom, wanted to move the capital from Jianye to Wuchang, but was strongly opposed by some ministers in the court.
Among them, Prime Minister Zuo composed a folk song to dissuade King Wu from moving the capital, "I would rather drink Jianye water than eat Wuchang fish. I would rather die in Jianye than live in Wuchang."
The name of Wuchang fish has been passed down since then, and it has a history of more than 1,700 years.
However, what really made Wuchang fish famous all over the world was a poem by a great man, "He only drinks Changsha water and eats Wuchang fish."
Li You is very interested in Wuchang fish. This fish, like mandarin fish and sea bass, is very suitable for steaming.
Ling Xiaoru said that someone in their village is selling this kind of fish?
Has she returned to the village?
"Have you arrived at the village yet?" Li You asked.
On the phone, Ling Xiaoru said: "I just arrived. As soon as I entered the village, I saw someone selling tuantou bream. By the way, this kind of fish is Wuchang fish, right?"
"Indeed. The famous Wuchang fish."
"He caught it by himself in the river. There is also a river in our village. He thought this kind of fish was rare in places like ours. He wanted to see if he could sell it?"
So that’s it.
Are there already wild Wuchang fish in the river here? This one is indeed rare.
"How big is the fish? How much does it cost per pound?"
"Two pieces are about the same size and weigh about two pounds each. They cost 20 yuan a pound."
It's about two kilograms, and the size is okay. It's not expensive at 20 yuan per kilogram.
You can buy it.
So, Li You said on the phone again: "Okay. Then you buy them. Bring them back and we will steam them and eat them."
"Okay, then I'll buy it. Is this kind of fish easy to raise? I won't leave until tomorrow morning. I can take it back and raise it until tomorrow morning. There should be no problem, right?"
"There should be no problem. This kind of fish is not delicate."
Logically speaking, there should be no problem. However, it would be a pity if it died.
Wuchang fish is indeed quite rare here.
Although fish that have recently died can be eaten, the taste will be much worse.
So, Li You thought for a moment and then said: "Otherwise, I'll come over and get it now. You wait for me there. I'll be there in about 20 minutes."
It's better to go there by yourself and get it in the past, which is safer.
From here, it’s about 15 kilometers and about 20 minutes is enough.
Ling Xiaoru was very happy when she heard Li You tell her to go and get it now and said, "Okay! Then I'll wait for you here. Slow down, pay attention to safety, and don't be in a hurry."
"Okay, see you later."
"See you later."
After hanging up the phone, Li You no longer delayed, filled some water into a water tank specially designed for fish, put the water tank in the storage box on the rear frame of the motorcycle, and then got on the motorcycle and set off.
Although he has never been to Taoyuan Village, he knows the way to go?
You need to go to the town first, then walk along a road in the town for a while, then turn south. Turn into the road leading to Taoyuan Village and other villages.
Li You has now turned in. The road is similar to the road from the hotel to the town. Although the road is not wide, it is a cement road. The road is smooth and easy to walk.
After walking for about 10 minutes, I felt that I should have almost arrived at Taoyuan Village.
Sure enough.
After walking for a while, I saw Ling Xiaoru's figure in the distance. And her electric bicycle. She came back on an electric bicycle.
In addition to Ling Xiaoru, there were several people. Among them was an old man, who should be in his 60s, sitting on a small stool. There was a bucket in front of him.
This old man should be the one selling Wuchang fish.
The two Wuchang fish are in the bucket.
As for the other people, they are probably here to watch the excitement and chat in the dragon gate array.
There are people selling fish here. This kind of situation does not happen every day. Now that it has appeared, it will naturally attract some people to watch.
Li You was looking at the situation at the scene. Ling Xiaoru also saw Li You arriving from a distance, and immediately waved to Li You very happily.
After Li You approached, he stopped his motorcycle. Ling Xiaoru came over and said happily: "Boss, you are here."
Li You nodded, "I've kept you waiting for a long time."
Ling Xiaoru shook her head, "It didn't take long."
Then he said to the old man selling fish: "Grandpa Haibo, the man who came to get the fish is here."
The old man selling fish is called Lin Haibo. He is 65 years old. He usually likes fishing.
I was fishing in the river today and actually caught two Wuchang fish.
This made him very happy.
Because this kind of fish is rare here, it is a relatively rare fish, and the meat is very delicious.
This means that you can try to sell these two fish to get some money.
Things are more valuable when they are rare. If it is crucian carp, carp, etc., no one in the village may buy it. But this kind of fish is possible.
Then let's sell it. Just sell it at the entrance of the village.
As a result, just after a while, Xiaoru, a girl from Lingzhi's family in the village, came back and was very surprised when she saw two Wuchang fish.
After asking how much a pound would cost, I took out my mobile phone and made a call.
From what Xiaoru said, she was asking the person on the phone if she wanted fish?
It turned out that the person on the phone said yes.
This makes Xiaoru girl very happy.
Of course Lin Haibo himself was very happy. He didn't expect to sell both fish so quickly.
It seems that this girl Xiaoru hasn’t been back for a while. I just set up a stall here today to sell fish, and I met this girl Xiaoru who came back.
I have to say that I am very lucky.
After Ling Xiaoru hung up the phone, she told Lin Haibo that she bought two Wuchang fish. However, she had to wait for someone to come and get the fish, which might take about 20 minutes. Asked Lin Haibo if he was willing to wait?
Of course Lin Haibo is willing to wait. Let alone 20 minutes, even two hours, that's all you can wait for.
Ling Xiaoru was very happy and said she would pay the money first.
Lin Haibo had already weighed the two fish, and they added up to four pounds and two taels, which was now four pounds. He asked Ling Xiaoru if he wanted to see the scale? If so, he would borrow a scale nearby.
Ling Xiaoru said no, saying she believed in Lin Haibo.
Then, Ling Xiaoru paid 80 yuan.
Now I just have to wait for Li You to come and get the fish.
Several villagers passed by the entrance of the village. After understanding the situation at the scene, they all stayed with great interest to set up the dragon gate array and have fun together.
Now, together with Lin Haibo, they are all looking at Li You who has just arrived.
The young man is very handsome!
It seems that he should be Xiaoru’s boyfriend.
Girl Xiaoru is so pretty, so she should find a handsome boyfriend.

This guy can do it. Very good!
Li You didn't know what a few people were thinking. He heard Ling Xiaoru call the old man "Grandpa Haibo", so he also said, "Hello, Grandpa Haibo!"
This made Lin Haibo very happy. He nodded repeatedly and responded with a smile, "Okay, okay. Hello to you too, young man!"
This guy is so polite.
At this time, Li You looked at the fish in the bucket and saw that it was indeed Wuchang fish.
"Ingredients: Wuchang fish.
Quality:Medium."
The system also promptly determined the quality of the fish.
Medium quality, pretty good.
And this can confirm that these two fish are indeed wild fish.
There are actually wild Wuchang fish in the river in this village, which is quite good!
