MTL - A Mouthful of Sky-high Fried Rice, Lao Tang Apprenticed on the Spot-Chapter 275 Maw
Chapter 275 Maw
Huang Xiaoming returned to the capital after five o'clock in the morning. Early the next morning, when Li Yi and Wu Lei got on the bus, they saw him sitting in the last row, wearing sunglasses to look cool.
"Wow! Manager? You're back!"
Wu Lei yelled in surprise, followed, walked up to him with a hey smile, winked at him, and asked, "How many catties did you lose?"
"Ahem! Three catties."
Huang Xiaoming pushed off his sunglasses in embarrassment, and instantly failed.
"Haha! I knew it!"
Wu Lei laughed and clapped his hands: "It's hard to go from extravagance to frugality, we are all the same!"
Huang Xiaoming took off his sunglasses and put them in the pocket of his jacket, feeling: "I am used to the food cooked by Brother Yi, but after joining the group, I am really not used to it."
"yes!"
Wu Lei and him share the same illness and have a common language. He sat down next to him and poured out his bitterness: "My life is called suffering! My sister thinks that I have gained weight in the past half a month of recording the show, and I give it to me every day. Eating boiled vegetables, the oil in my intestines has been scraped clean."
"You are happy enough."
Huang Xiaoming complained: "Am I still the same? Eating cucumbers and tomatoes every day to lose weight is simply suffering.
You still have tofu sticks to satisfy your cravings, but I have nothing, so I can only rely on fantasy to persist.
Over the past few days, my underpants are so hungry. "
"Haha! Can this be said on the show?"
Wu Lei laughed, then looked at Li Yi, and teased: "Brother Yi, look, I haven't eaten your food for a few days, and the pants I gave our store manager are so hungry, you have to make up for it." Manager?"
"no problem."
Li Yi said calmly: "We have dinner today, and your share of compensation will be given to the store manager."
Wu Lei's smile froze, and he became anxious: "Don't!"
"Hey! I think it's okay!"
Huang Xiaoming smiled and looked at Wu Lei with resentment on his face, and deliberately teased him.
Watching Wu Lei pestering Li Yi for mercy, his mood was as bright as the sunshine outside the window.
When he was recording the program before, he didn’t feel anything, but after going out for a few days, he really missed the days of recording "Chinese Restaurant".
This time he finished work and came back, he even felt like coming home.
After sitting in the car for a while, Liu Yifei and Zhao Jinmai also got into the car.
After seeing Huang Xiaoming, they were also very pleasantly surprised.
"Brother Ming? When did you come back?"
"Why didn't you tell us?"
The two came to the back row and asked Huang Xiaoming about his work this time with a smile.
Huang Xiaoming briefly talked about the work he went out this time, and showed them the photos taken during work.
Watching them teasing about his slightly exaggerated makeup in the photo, Huang Xiaoming didn't care, just smiled and didn't speak, like a brother facing two mischievous younger sisters.
Soon, the program team also boarded the car, and the live broadcast started.
In an instant, the audience who had been waiting outside the live broadcast room also poured in.
Seeing the returning Huang Xiaoming, they were equally surprised, and they all posted "Welcome Brother Xiaoming to return" in the live broadcast room.
Seeing this barrage, Huang Xiaoming was very moved. He directly raised his thumb towards the camera and said with a smile, "Hi everyone, I'm home. Our five-member Chinese restaurant team finally got together again!"
Wu Lei poked his head out from the side, and said with a smile: "I'll tell you one thing, brother Ming's pants..."
As soon as he stretched out his head, Huang Xiaoming knew what he wanted to say, so he quickly covered his mouth with his hand, and pushed him back.
Seeing them laughing and playing, the audience was also very happy.
"Haha! The whole team is the most used to seeing it!"
"Yes! Brother Xiaoming and Wu Lei are gone, and Brother Yi is taking two girls with him. It always feels like a couple with a sister-in-law."
"It's still the most interesting five people together."
"I'm afraid this is my favorite lineup in seven seasons. It feels like they are like family."
Amidst Wu Lei's pleading, the program team's car drove to the airport.
They have to go to the airport to pick up the goods first. The fish, shrimp, crab, and geese brought over by air are all live animals, so they have to get them back to the restaurant as soon as possible.
The same procedure as last time, after Li Yi and his team picked up the fresh goods at the airport, they arranged for the program team's car to take them back to the restaurant.
Li Yi and his party went to the Beijing-Shenzhen Seafood Market by car. Li Yi wanted to buy some seafood to make seafood broth.
In the market, I casually bought some Australian dragon, fresh abalone, sea cucumber, blue crab and other seafood, and it cost more than 3,000 yuan.
But these are just incidental. The main purpose of Li Yi's trip is to buy isinglass.
After running all over the market, he finally bought two five-headed wild white fish maws, which cost four thousand yuan.
After paying the money happily, Li Yi handed over the two isinglass to Liu Yifei behind him.
After receiving the fluffy isinglass, Liu Yifei was a little puzzled: "That's all, how about four thousand yuan?"
"almost."
Li Yi smiled and said: "Haibazhen! This is already considered cheap. The ones I buy are not big. There is no upper limit on the price of fish maw. The price of collection grade can reach more than one million yuan, and the price of four thousand yuan can only It is an ordinary food eaten at home."
"Four thousand yuan or ordinary goods?"
Zhao Jinmai stuck out his tongue: "If my mother would never be willing to spend 4,000 yuan to buy this thing, isn't this fish bubble?"
"It is the swim bladder, yes, but the swim bladder and the swim bladder are different."
Li Yi explained with a smile: "Only the swim bladder of certain marine fish can be called fish maw after drying. The swim bladder of freshwater fish cannot be used as fish maw."
"Why?"
Zhao Jinmai was puzzled: "It's all swim bladders, why can't freshwater fish die?"
"The quality is different, and the thickness of the swim bladder of freshwater fish is not enough."
Li Yi explained: "The swim bladder is the organ that controls the fish's floating and diving underwater. Freshwater fish generally only live in a water area of a few meters or more than ten meters, and the water pressure they bear will not be too great, so the thickness of the swim bladder is generally not too thick.
However, marine fish often live at a depth of tens of meters or even hundreds of meters, and bear much higher water pressure than freshwater fish, so the thickness of the swim bladder will be thicker, and various nutrients will also be more. "
Listening to Li Yi's explanation, Zhao Jinmai glanced at the fish maw in the bag, and nodded thoughtfully: "That's right, the maws of freshwater fish usually don't grow so big and thick."
Huang Xiaoming followed behind and said, "Fish maw is a good thing. My cousin was in confinement before, so I bought a piece of fish maw as a gift for her. My cousin ate it and said it was very good."
Hearing what he said, Li Yi asked, "Is it Daxu money or Xiaoxu money?"
Huang Xiaoming was stunned for a moment, thought for a while, and then said: "It seems to be Xiaoxu money, right? I can't remember.
I don’t know much about it either. I asked a friend to buy it, saying that it is better for pregnant women who have just given birth. "
"It should be Xiaoxu Money, that's right."
Li Yi nodded: "Occasionally you can buy Daxu money, but Xiaoxu money is rare. It's interesting."
As he spoke, he gave Huang Xiaoming a thumbs up.
If it is really Xiaoxu money, the price of the fish maw should not be less than 10,000 yuan.
Liu Yifei listened to what they said, and asked curiously: "What are Daxu money and Xiaoxu money? Are they all fish maw?"
