"Fire the side stove?"
Ouyang Tong looked at Liu Jixing dumbfounded. He had never heard of such a word after living for so long!
Looking at Ouyang Tong's expression, Liu Jixing had no sense of accomplishment at all. After all, others might not understand what he was used to saying! I just thought that when I was at Prince Xing's Mansion last time, I heard Wang Yu and Qu Ke'er say that at this time, the pots in most people's homes are not called pots, but are called cauldrons! So no one understands when it comes to eating hot pot!
However, the three-legged copper cauldron currently on the desk is very rare, because most households only use copper and iron cauldrons without legs, and there is no variety of cooking dishes. If he hadn't taken up this profession and shouldered many responsibilities, Liu Jixing would have wanted to try being a chef!
It was because he saw this three-legged cauldron on the boat in the first place, maybe because it was difficult for the boatmen to set up pots on the boat, that Liu Jixing thought of making a hot pot!
Seeing Ouyang Tong's tireless appearance, Liu Jixing didn't bother to explain. After all, there were too many explanations for a man like Ouyang Tong. In the future, he would not be so mysterious in front of him! I don't want to control the Guigu faction, but I want to wash his brain. I hope someone from the Guigu faction will support me!
Maybe seeing Liu Jixing's idiot-like look in his eyes, Ouyang Tong thought it was something wrong with him again and he didn't understand the culture of a certain place in the world. In order to save Liu Jixing from watching the game, he simply kept his mouth shut and thought that he would find out more when he had time!
Liu Jixing was not hungry at this time, but the women around him were prone to hunger, so he squatted down to look at the fish in the fishing net. At first glance, the fish Ouyang Tong threw up were quite big. They were wild river fish, which looked like excellent food.
There are common grass carp, carp, bighead carp, and three large bonito carp weighing seven or eight kilograms! The smallest carp weighed three to four pounds, so Ouyang Tong really put a lot of thought into it. Nothing can stop the foodie. Ouyang Tong put so much effort into it just to see what delicious food Liu Jixing can come up with!
Looking at these nice fish, not to mention Ouyang Tong's thoughts, even Liu Jixing himself was drooling a little. He glanced at Ouyang Tong, but his eyes became much gentler.
Ouyang Tong looked at this posture and was about to look back, but Liu Jixing didn't even bother to look. Then he squatted beside the fishing net, took out a dagger, knocked out a big grass carp and scraped the fish scales.
The boat girl was quite discerning. Seeing Liu Jixing's attitude, she immediately ran to the back and brought a large copper basin and placed it next to Liu Jixing to hold the fish.
The three women had seen Liu Jixing packing game in the past few days. They knew that there would be something to eat soon. They all watched Liu Jixing do it with smiles, and they did not mind the fishy smell at all.
The boat girl on the side looked on with surprise. She ignored the low murmurs of several women, but looked at the boy who was younger than her man from time to time. Although they didn't look like they were from a wealthy family, these three women, who were more beautiful than her, happily surrounded him as if they were a master and lover, which really shocked her!
Especially when you see Liu Jixing with his sleeves rolled up, he is skilled in handling daggers, and different fishes are easily solved in his hands. It is obviously not the first time he has done this kind of thing! Thinking about my status, if I wanted to do something like this, I might not know where to start. I couldn't help but look at the young man holding the pole in surprise!
This young man was her newly married man, and he seemed to understand her intentions, because there was no need to hold the pole at this time, but he may have taken into account that Liu Jixing had family members, so he never got too close. At this time, he saw his woman looking at him, so he walked closer to her and watched with her!
Liu Jixing ignored everyone's looks and handled his work neatly! They took out the internal organs of the carp and grass carp, took out the big bamboo sticks that had been kept in the woods and put them in Ouyang Tongzhu's backpack, and dressed all the fish. But the bonito was removed from the bones and the meat was cut into thin slices and placed in a basin. As for the big bighead carps, the belly was cut off and the heads were cut off, but the fish meat was put together separately.
Everyone didn't understand these details of his, but seeing the dagger's flying movements, every fish was handled clearly. Although in the eyes of Jianghu people, Liu Jixing's knife skills are really useless, but when you see him using it to cut fish, it is amazing to see the uniform slices as thick as a fingernail!
There happened to be some firewood on the boat. When Liu Jixing said he wanted to light a fire, the boy holding the pole immediately brought it over and lit it in the brazier with some starter flint!
Liu Jixing was not in a hurry. While collecting the fish, he saw that there was still a small half that had not been slaughtered and the copper basin was already full, so he stopped killing.
Seeing that the boy holding the punt had already lit the fire, he asked the boat girl to add water to the copper cauldron and put it on the brazier to burn. Then I put down some weird things, and also put in the skulls of bonito fish and other things first.
Everyone usually only drank fish soup, and they didn’t know what Liu Jixing wanted to do, so they just let the pole-polling boy bring a small wooden stool and sit around, patiently waiting for the water in the copper cauldron to boil!
Seeing that the firewood gradually turned into charcoal, Liu Jixing sprayed some water into the fire from time to time. The remaining charcoal fire gradually became obvious, and it did not turn into ashes immediately.
When the fish soup in the copper cauldron emitted a sweet aroma, the man who started steering the ship came back. He carried back a small bundle of dry firewood, as well as a lot of vegetables, onions and garlic! What's rare is that there is actually a large piece of turmeric. Of course, what Liu Jixing was most excited about was seeing the handful of coriander he brought back!
Here Liu Jixing continued to add a few more fires, still as if he were in the wild mountains. He set up a shelf on the brazier, put two big fish through them and grilled them! (To be continued.)
