Food Stall: Customers Chase Me across the Country-Chapter 313 - 314: Seafood from Jiang Province

"Wow, this is terrifying..."

Wang Fan and Zhuo Qianqian were both surrounding the three boxes, unable to help but let out similar exclamations.

In the first large box, there was a neatly arranged row of Australian freshwater lobsters, commonly known as Australian little green dragons. A rough glance showed at least over 10 of them, each about 30 centimeters long.

The second box contained some South American white shrimp, which were also quite sizable, with large ice blocks at the bottom of the box providing excellent preservation.

The third box contained three trout, each weighing about three to four jin, their plump bodies squeezed together looking very imposing.

Wang Fan admired, "It’s amazing how Great Border can not only raise sea fish but also sea shrimp. The world is indeed full of wonders."

Zhuo Qianqian was also shocked, "The confidentiality work is too good, this is the first time I’ve seen fish and shrimp produced by our own family."

These three big boxes of fish and shrimp were sent by Zhuo Qianqian’s dad, and they arrived just today.

"It seems like there’s too much to eat."

Wang Fan looked at the three big boxes with a bit of worry, this was at least 20 or 30 jin, and the two of them certainly couldn’t finish it quickly.

Zhuo Qianqian thought for a moment and said, "How about we cook it and send some to my dormitory friends?"

Wang Fan laughed, "Sure, or how about this, let’s find a place nearby where we can start a fire and camp, and then invite them over to join us."

Zhuo Qianqian looked at Wang Fan in surprise, "Boss, you’re acting weird."

Wang Fan was puzzled, "What’s weird about it?"

Zhuo Qianqian pointed at him, "You used to never invite people to eat with you. You have an introverted personality; you don’t like interacting with too many people."

Wang Fan rubbed his nose.

The little foodie knows me so well?

"Don’t you like lively gatherings?"

Zhuo Qianqian shook her head seriously, "But you don’t like them, and I never asked you to change for me. We usually have plenty of time to hang out with them."

Wang Fan smiled and ruffled her long hair, "Don’t think too much. I’m not changing for you; I’m just curious to see what the hustle and bustle is like."

Zhuo Qianqian looked at him suspiciously, "Really? You’re sure you’re not forcing yourself?"

Wang Fan shook his head, "Absolutely not."

"Then can I call them?"

"Go ahead."

"Are you sure I can call them?"

"Yes, call them."

Zhuo Qianqian was still uneasy, directly placing her hand on Wang Fan’s forehead to check, "You’re not even running a fever."

Wang Fan tapped her hand away, half laughing and half annoyed, "Shoo, shoo, I’m perfectly normal. Go on and call them. Once it’s set, let’s go buy some decorations. Camping should look like camping."

...

Jiang Chenchen rushed back to the dorm, saw Li Jing eating a pack of chips and snatched it away, tossing it into the trash can.

Li Jing instantly turned red with anger, gritting her teeth, "You better give me a reasonable explanation, otherwise prepare to die!"

Jiang Chenchen laughed heartily, "What chips? Qianqian said she’s treating us to a barbecue seafood feast tonight. If you fill up now, you’ll just be watching later!"

Upon hearing this, Li Jing jumped up from her chair, bent down, and pulled out two small dumbbells from under the desk, "Time to work out!"

Jiang Chenchen grinned, "Why not just hit the gym for an hour?"

Li Jing thought it made sense and put the dumbbells back.

Zhang Ya suggested, "Should we buy some fruits or cold dishes to bring? Or split the cost with Qianqian?"

Jiang Chenchen shook her head, "I asked, and she said just bring yourselves and your stomachs. The seafood was sent by her dad, and she won’t let us split the cost. We can treat them back another time."

"What time is it set for?"

"In about an hour and a half."

"Let’s go, let’s go, off to the gym. If we don’t empty our stomachs, it would be a waste of this chance from the heavens!"

Wang Fan did not find a wild camping site.

It just so happened that there was a campsite near Kainan Water Park, so he chose there directly.

After setting the time in the afternoon, he went out shopping with Zhuo Qianqian, buying atmospheric lights, a folding table, a canopy, and chairs. Considering he would likely use them again in the future, he bought branded goods, and the total cost was several thousand yuan.

The most expensive equipment for camping is usually the tent, but since he has an RV, there’s no need to bother with a tent.

Thinking of the RV, he thought that after completing this task and receiving the reward, he could try upgrading the RV.

The space was still relatively small now. He wondered what it would be like after upgrading?

At the campsite, they weren’t the only ones busy. Just a few meters away, others were also camping. Some had just arrived and were setting up tents, while others came early and were already preparing dinner.

Few people come camping with an RV. When Wang Fan parked his car, it attracted quite a bit of attention.

Zhuo Qianqian helped Wang Fan hang the atmospheric lights around the RV. Once the canopy was up, they set up the folding table and chairs. By then, Jiang Chenchen and the other two had also arrived.

With the help of the three, they quickly washed the fruits and vegetables. Then, sitting on the chairs, they enjoyed the surrounding scenery while eagerly watching Wang Fan and Zhuo Qianqian busying themselves.

At this moment, most people at the campsite were preparing dinner, but the most eye-catching one was undoubtedly Wang Fan.

After all, others were using cartridges or charcoal. His RV equipment was undoubtedly the camping king.

Zhuo Qianqian was now in charge of grilling the lamb skewers, a task she handled effortlessly, and with Wang Fan’s guidance, the taste wouldn’t be bad.

Wang Fan, on his part, was handling the seafood mailed by his future father-in-law.

The first thing he processed was the trout.

Some sellers label trout as salmon, and it’s not entirely wrong since salmon is a general term rather than a fixed fish type.

However, saying it like that is somewhat misleading because generally, people think of Atlantic salmon when they hear salmon.

The packaging from the father-in-law clearly said trout, proving his honesty.

Wang Fan planned to make two trout dishes.

Sweet and sour trout, charcoal-grilled trout, and sashimi.

Many think sashimi originated from Japan, but that’s incorrect. It was passed down by Huaxia’s ancestors.

There are records of eating sashimi as early as the Zhou Dynasty, dating back to 823 BC, primarily using carp fillets at the time.

Cao Zhi, who famously composed poems in seven steps, also liked to eat fish slices with shrimp paste.

By the Tang and Song dynasties, it had reached its peak, with Li Bai, Wang Wei, and Su Shi all being fans of it.

As for the freshwater fish parasite issue, that mainly depends on the breeding environment. Even if worst comes to worst, there’s no reason for his father-in-law to harm his own daughter, right?
