Chapter 865 Eat or die
When Jones found Yang Jing on the ice at noon, he looked at the six or seven large ice holes on the ice and the frozen hard Asian carp around the ice holes, and his eyes almost fell out.
"Hey, Albert, why are you doing so many Asian carp? This kind of fish cannot be eaten, the heavy metal content exceeds the standard." Little Jones shouted at Yang Jing with red eyes.
Yang Jing shrugged his shoulders indifferently and said, "I can't blame me for this. If you want to blame, I blame too many freshwater fish in this river. I just wanted to catch two carp about one kilogram. As a result, when I chiseled an ice hole, the fish jumped up like medicine. I couldn't stop it... I said Michael, why did you come here? Didn't I ask you and Roy to come in the evening?"
Jones walked onto the ice and stretched out his feet to kick a silver carp that was more than 60 centimeters long but was frozen hard. As a result, the fish did not move at all, but he grinned and cursed a few times.
"Roy is still sleeping. I can't sleep for only three hours. Anyway, I have nothing to do, so I'll come to you first. I said, Albert, why do you do so many fish? These fish cannot be eaten. Although I know that you Chinese are very good at making freshwater fish, the heavy metal content in these freshwater fish exceeds the standard and people cannot eat them."
Yang Jing shook his head and said, "Michael, I think you are wrong. The so-called heavy metals you mentioned refer to the Asian carp in the Mississippi River. The heavy metals in the Mississippi River exceed the standard, but this is the upper reaches of the Missouri River. There will not be so many heavy metals in the bodies of the fish living here."
As he said that, Yang Jing kicked a carp that was more than half a meter long with his feet, "Take this fish for example. If I guess it's good, this fish has lived here for at least five years, but how long have you discovered Asian carp here?"
Jones Jr. thought for a while and said, "It seems like it was seven or eight years ago? Maybe it's going to go a little further? At that time, Asian carp appeared in the Missouri River and the Su River in the north. However, we locals didn't care at that time. When we took it seriously, this crazy fish could no longer be eliminated. They completely dominated this area of water."
"Yes, since Asian carp was found here seven or eight years ago, these fish will not be over seven years old. Therefore, these fish should have been born and grown up here. The water quality here is very good, so these fish do not have heavy metals exceeding the standard."
Seeing Yang Jing's affirmation, Jones asked in confusion: "Then do you mean these fish can be eaten?"
Yang Jing nodded without doubt. As a joke, as a person from the foodie empire, if such a good fish cannot be eaten, then his compatriots will know that they will be stabbed in the backbone!
"But this kind of fish is very unpalatable, it has a strong fishy smell and a lot of thorns. No one here eats this kind of fish."
"Haha, that's why you don't make this kind of fish. Michael, since you came early today, I'll make you a sweet and sour carp at noon today, so that you can taste the authentic Chinese sweet and sour carp. I guarantee you like to eat it!"
Americans have a sweet and sour taste, so the sweet and sour tenderloin will not be rampant in the United States. Similarly, if the sweet and sour carp is prepared, the taste will be better than the sweet and sour tenderloin. Yang Jing doesn't believe that Jones doesn't like it.
The reason why Yang Jing broke so many ice holes on the ice was mainly because he wanted to catch two smaller carp. The carp was too big and was not suitable for sweet and sour carp. The larger carp could only be cut into fish segments for braised or stewed at home.
It is best not to be more than three kilograms of carp suitable for sweet and sour carp. But what Yang Jing didn't expect was that since the ice hole was broken here, the big fish weighing more than seven or eight kilograms or even ten kilograms would jump out of the ice hole one by one, and the smaller fish would not dare to come forward at all.
Not to mention fishing with a fishing rod, Yang Jing only needs to smash an ice hole, and it takes less than ten minutes to get all the frozen big fish around the ice hole!
The fish were like they had made an appointment, jumping up in line, and the scene was spectacular!
However, this kind of scene seems to be no longer visible in the rivers in China...
Seeing Yang Jing's net-copying carp weighing two or three pounds, the big carp he put in the net-copying book had already turned into a lump of ice. Little Jones couldn't help but be a little stunned, "Albert, would you just take these two fish back? What about the rest?"
Yang Jing shrugged, "I can only wait until the fish thawed next spring and then return to the embrace of the Missouri River. Anyway, I don't need these fish."
Just kidding, he is the only one here. There are at least thirty or forty fish that jumped up by himself, and each one must weigh at least five or six pounds. If he was allowed to eat it alone, he would not be able to eat it for the New Year!
So these fish can only be here. Anyway, the weather is cold, and the fish will freeze into a lump of ice in a while, so there is no need to worry about rot and polluting the surrounding environment.
Jones took the net copy from Yang Jing's hand, and two fish flew around in the net copy, while Yang Jing pushed the cart and the two walked into the house side by side.
At noon, Yang Jing made a sweet and sour carp and a homemade tiled fish, which really made Jones feel more happy.
This guy doesn't eat freshwater fish, so he has no choice but to the small thorns in the freshwater fish and can get stuck from time to time. However, the taste of the two fish made by Yang Jing is absolutely useless, so even if Jones is stuck with the fish bones, he is reluctant to put down his knife and fork...
Finally, the two carp that weighed more than five kilograms were eaten by both of them. There was only a little residue left on the plate, and even the fish soup was drunk by Jones.
Yang Jing was comfortable to eat, but Jones squirted for the rest of the afternoon—a lot of fish bones were pierced in his mouth.
In the evening, Big Jones took a passing bus to Yang Jing, but when he heard his younger brother say that the fish were delicious at noon, Big Jones was not very interested in hot pot anymore, so he insisted that Yang Jing get two more fish and continue eating fish.
For this reason, Big Jones pulled his brother to break the ice and fish again. In less than half an hour, he caught two carp weighing three pounds.
If guests are willing to eat fish or hot pot, then continue to cook fish.
So, that night, the "cough" cough sounded all night in the guest room of Zhao Meng's farm. It was estimated that the two brothers' throats were covered with tiny fish bones.
Early the next morning, Yang Jing laughed when he saw the two brothers wearing panda eyes. The two of them coughed all night, but in the morning they couldn't even speak.
These two brothers are also desperate to eat, and they are both stuck like this. It’s hard to imagine how they ate the two fish!
After sending the two brothers away, Yang Jing traveled through time and space in 1997. The Asian financial crisis had begun. He needed to stay there in case of any unexpected situation.
Sure enough, as soon as he walked into the office, David knocked on the door and walked in, and told a piece of news that he had long been expected.
