Chapter 120 (Fourth Update) Eating Raw Oysters

After leaving the kelp seedlings breeding area.

The iron boat came to a nearby sea area. This sea is all for breeding oysters. There are more than 50 acres of oyster fields with pillars near the coast.

When the tide is low, it is all pillars.

It looks quite spectacular.

And what Zhang Qingyun took them to was not these oyster fields.

But the breeding rafts near the oyster fields.

This breeding raft is a bit like a fishing raft, and it is also made of bamboo, but the number of bamboos is denser than that of fishing rafts.

Each bamboo is tied with a lot of ropes, and below are strings of oyster shells.

After the iron boat docked next to the breeding raft.

Zhang Qingyun jumped from the boat to the bamboo raft frame first, and then said to everyone: "Come down, I will show you the oyster seedlings."

When everyone got on the raft frame.

Zhang Qingyun picked up a string of ropes tied with large oyster shells, and many small oysters grew on the shells, each the size of a thumb.

Zhang Qingyun introduced: "It takes about two to three years to cultivate oysters, and the ones on this raft are almost all one-year-old seedlings."

Li Duoyu picked up a bunch and observed them.

Zhang Qingyun asked:

"How are they? They are all good in appearance, right?"

Li Duoyu replied: "Not bad, much better than the ones I raise at home."

Chen Wenchao also looked at them curiously.

He picked up a bunch of oyster seedlings and looked at them, and his head was full of question marks.

"Brother Yu, why do oysters grow on oyster shells?"

Li Duoyu smiled and was about to answer this question to Chen Wenchao, but he didn't expect his uncle Chen Dongqing to answer it first.

He completely ignored his image as the first college student on Dandan Island and rubbed his right hand vividly.

"Oysters are similar to kelp. They are all like this, and the things that are ejected will hang on these oyster shells."

After his uncle said this, Chen Wenchao understood it immediately, but he looked at the distance between the oyster field and the breeding raft.

"Will that thing float over here from such a distance?"

Chen Dongqing shook his head and sighed:

"You are underestimating oysters. The amount that thing spits out at a time is more than you. Not long ago, this sea area collectively sprayed, and the sea water was almost dyed white."

"Is it so powerful?"

"Of course." Chen Dongqing nodded: "I heard from the older generation that after eating this thing, it will increase the combat time. You can try it."

"But I have been here for a long time."

Chen Dongqing asked curiously: "How long?"

Seeing so many people here, the two of them whispered to each other.

Chen Dongqing frowned, then smoked a cigarette, and said seriously:

"Xiao Chao, I think you are wrong at this time, you are definitely sick and need to be treated."

"How to treat it?"

"Become a monk."

Chen Wenchao exclaimed, and then said: "You must be fooling me."

Li Duoyu found that the two of them were quite congenial, and they were naturally resistant to black-bellied people!

Just like what my uncle said.

When oysters are first sprayed out, they are like kelp spores, and can only be seen with a microscope.

They will drift to all parts of the world with the ocean currents, some attached to reefs, some attached to the bottom of ships, and some can even appear thousands of miles away along the ocean currents.

In order to obtain oyster seedlings, farmers will place seed collectors near the breeding area in May and June when oysters are sprayed.

The method of seed collectors is also very simple, that is, some larger shells. The north especially likes to use scallop shells as seed collectors.

They don’t raise many scallops here.

So they directly use oyster shells as seed collectors, while the area of ​​Zhanjiang especially likes to use cement blocks.

Each has its own good.

However, in 2020, there were very few farmers on Dandan Island who collected oyster seedlings.

Because at that time, some units developed the so-called triploid new variety of oysters.

Li Duoyu didn’t know much about the so-called triploids. He only knew that this kind of oyster was castrated by biotechnology and deliberately made infertile.

When oysters are no longer burdened with having babies, they will keep eating and will not spray, so they are very large.

Some triploid oysters are larger than an adult's palm when they are raised.

However, since they cannot reproduce, it is difficult for oyster farmers to collect oyster seedlings.

If there are no seedlings, they can only buy them from breeding farms that specialize in producing oyster seedlings. Thus, capital gradually controls the market.

After visiting the oyster seedlings.

Section Chief Zhang took them to another bamboo breeding raft.

The oysters here are very large, each half the size of a palm. Zhang Qingyun introduced: "I have raised these oysters for more than two years."

After that, Section Chief Zhang took out a small knife he carried with him and picked up an oyster.

Then, he skillfully pried open the oyster with a small knife, then sucked it, cut the oyster's bite muscle with a knife, picked up the oyster, put it in his mouth and ate it in one bite.

Chen Wenchao at the scene was stunned: "Brother Yu, isn't Section Chief Zhang afraid of parasites when eating raw like this?"

Li Duoyu smiled: "Probably not."

After eating, Zhang Qingyun felt very satisfied, and pried another one up, saying to Chen Dongqing:

"Dongqing, do you want a few?"

"Thank you, Section Chief, you can eat it yourself."

From the moment Zhang Qingyun started to pry the oysters, Chen Dongqing had already run far away.

When he first arrived at the institute and was still a young man, he was fooled by the section chief to eat several oysters.

The taste was simply indescribable.

Since then, he swore that he would never eat this thing raw again.

Seeing Chen Dongqing running so far, Zhang Qingyun said to Li Duoyu: "Duoyu, do you want to try it? It doesn't taste good at first, but if you eat it a few more times, you will feel that it tastes good."

"Okay, give me one."

After taking the oyster from Section Chief Zhang, Li Duoyu took the lead in sucking a mouthful of the soup, which tasted pretty good, fishy but slightly sweet, and with the saltiness of sea water.

Then, Li Duoyu picked up the whole oyster, put it directly into his mouth, and chewed it, and found that the taste was quite rich.

Very tender, and also very fishy.

And there was a bit of metallic pungent smell, but it was missing lemon, otherwise it would be better.

After Li Duoyu finished eating, he looked at the sea water around him and found that the sea water at this time was very clean, with almost no pollution. No wonder the quality of oysters is so good.

"How is it, it tastes good."

Zhang Qingyun asked.

Li Duoyu nodded: "It's delicious, the overall taste is very good, with a light milky flavor, a little fishy but acceptable. If you eat it in winter, it will probably taste better."

"Awesome, you even know that it tastes better in winter."

Li Duoyu replied: "My father also raised a few acres of oysters on the mudflats. I have secretly eaten them raw before."

"So which do you think is better, the oysters on the mudflats or the oysters raised here?"

"The ones you raise here are cleaner and taste better, not so fishy. The ones raised on the mudflats have a smell of earth."

Zhang Qingyun smiled very happily: "Dongqing, your nephew is much better than you. He knows that this thing can be eaten raw."

Chen Dongqing looked at Li Duoyu with disdain, as if he was looking at the evil party, eating such a disgusting thing, but he didn't vomit.

Zhang Qingyun pried up another one and said to Chen Wenchao, "Do you want to try it too?"

Chen Wenchao frowned and looked tangled. Seeing that Brother Yu was fine after eating, he nodded and said, "Try one and see."

He also learned from Li Duoyu to swallow it in one mouthful.

After taking two bites, his eyes widened and his stomach was out of control, churning on the spot.

He covered his mouth with his hands and vomited on the side of the boat, with tears and snot all coming out.

Zhang Qingyun sighed, "Don't worry, it's really hard to get used to it at the beginning, just eat more and it will be fine."

Chen Dongqing couldn't help shaking his head. He found that Section Chief Zhang was really persistent in inviting others to eat raw oysters.

I don't know how many people vomited after eating it. Now no one in the unit is willing to come to his oyster raft.

However, he heard from people in the institute.

Section Chief Zhang has spent almost half his life studying oysters. It seems that five years ago, after going to the island country, he saw the islanders eating raw oysters.

After returning to China, I have always wanted to develop local oysters that can be eaten raw, but due to the limitations of current technology and the public's refusal to eat raw oysters.

People still prefer dried oysters.

So Section Chief Zhang's oyster farming project has never been developed.

Therefore, he missed the opportunity for promotion, which gave Yang Zairong a chance to take advantage of it and be promoted to deputy director.
