Eight Hundred and Eighty-One. You Can Smoke Fish (1/5)

The machine structure is set up, and there are stores in Miami and New York as sales channels. Qin Shiou can't make a small fuss if he wants to make dried bonito. You must know that these two production lines can process one ton of bonito a day!

The power of modern production is that the whole process is mechanized. This set of equipment worth 800,000 yuan only needs someone to manually put the bonito on the conveyor belt, and the machine will take care of the rest.

The old technician said to Qin Shiou: "Sir, our drying machine is top-notch. It can not only make dried bonito, but also other dried fish. You can control the intensity of drying and roasting. You can make any kind of dried fish. "

Before going out to sea to catch bonito, Qin Shiou whistled to Shaq and said, "Go to the freezer, I remember there are some mackerel, don't you? Try the taste of dried mackerel."

Shaq drove the domineering f650 for a quick turn, and when he came back, there were boxes of frozen mackerel in the car.

The old mechanic looked at the super pickup truck standing on the ground like a prehistoric bird of prehistoric birds, shook his head and said, "Damn capitalists, this car is awesome, and you actually let it work? It should appear on the track."

Qin Shiou turned around and smiled as he walked, "No, it's just a pickup truck, he has to work."

The mackerel in the box was chopped off the head and tail, and then frozen. It has been a long time. It was caught in July and has been stored in the freezer.

The fishing season for this kind of fish is from April to June. They chase cephalopods and small fish and shrimps for food. The mackerel caught in July are all high-quality products, with the most plump and tender meat.

Qin Shiou was planning to sell it after catching it at the time. As a result, the Daqin brand was conceived, and it has been kept in the freezer, intending to sell it in winter and spring.

Mackerel is a warm-water migratory fish in coastal waters. Winter is too cold, and they will leave the North Atlantic Ocean to go to the equatorial waters. At this time, the price is the best. A high-quality mackerel can sell for several thousand yuan.

There are countless treasures in the ocean. It's not just tuna that's worth the money.

Of course, the mackerel that can sell for several thousand yuan is not the usual little guy less than half a meter, but a big fish that can weigh 50 kilograms with a body length of one meter and a half.

The fish that Shaq pulled out from the freezer were about half a meter in size, about five or six catties. This is a small mackerel.

The mackerel caught before is classified according to body size and packed in boxes of different sizes. This kind of fish is different from ordinary fish, the bigger the better, but the meat of small fish is not tender enough.

Look at the fat fish with the head and tail chopped off.

Qin Shiou shook his head and said, "I really don't understand, guys, why don't Canadians like to eat fish tails?"

Not only mackerel, but also tuna. When Canadians sell this stuff, they will cut off the tail of the fish, even if they don’t remove the internal organs. All fish tails should be chopped off.

Bird shrugged and said, "What's so delicious about the fish tail? The meat isn't fat enough."

Qin Shiou said in Mandarin: "There is a saying in our hometown, which is called partridge deer on the mountain, horse mackerel in the sea, and the most fragrant horse mackerel is the fish tail."

Shaq said while carrying the box down: "No. The heavy metal content in fish tails is often beyond the standard. The fish we sell are for children and women."

Qin Shiou was about to put the fish on the conveyor belt. The old technician introduced: "No, boss, wait a moment. You have to wait for the ice and snow to melt. Are you going to make dried fish or smoked fish? If mackerel is used as smoked fish, it will taste delicious. God is drooling."

The machine is designed for making dried bonito. You can make dried fish in two flavors: Huangjie and Kujie. Huangjie is smoked fish. And mackerel is really suitable for smoked fish.

Boxes of iced fish were placed outside the warehouse. Qin Shiou asked Shaq to arrange someone to start making smoked fish as soon as the ice melted. He was afraid that the temperature would suddenly cool and heat, which would cause the fish to deteriorate.

Just as he was about to go out to sea to catch bonito, Billy came over and asked, "Your jewelry is finished, have you brought it back from New York?"

Qin Shiou thought he was concerned about the auction, so he nodded and showed him the photos stored in his mobile phone. Billy looked at them carefully, and after reading them, he said, "Sell me a set?"

"You want to buy it?" Qin Shiou asked in amazement, "Is it necessary?"

He is a bit dull, and he pays more attention to the rhythm and quality of life, but he doesn't care about what he wears, otherwise he wouldn't give Wei Ni jewelry so late.

Billy said, "Of course it must, man, it's black pearl jewelry, real black pearls, I've never seen pearls of such fine quality. We had drinks with Little Blake and Brandon that night, and the three of us didn't know what to do." Are you going to buy one?"

Qin Shiou remembered that Billy and the others did say that when they were drinking that night, but he didn't take it to heart, because everyone was drinking at that time, and there were more jokes and scenes on the wine table, so he thought it was a joke.

Billy explained: "Not only I will buy it, but also Little Black and Brandon. These are real black pearls, wild pearls with a halo of pearls. They will be the most suitable engagement gifts for my fiancée in the future."

I talked with Vincent, Liv and others before. They talked about luxury goods, but they directly talked about the finished product, and they didn’t talk much about the black pearl itself.

Moreover, according to Qin Shiou's knowledge, more than 150,000 black pearls can be produced in the world every year, so I feel that unless it is made into a luxury item, it is of little value.

Obviously, his understanding was wrong.

Billy didn't go directly to see the black pearl jewelry. After seeing the photos, he called Little Black and Brandon and asked them to come over to talk with them. The two said they could arrive on the same day, and Billy would wait.

Qin Shiou packed up the seasonings and prepared to make smoked fish. The smoked fish he understood in the North American market was different from the smoked fish he understood.

Smoked fish in Canada is similar to bacon, which can be simply smoked and grilled instead of focusing on the taste, because these smoked fish are not eaten directly, but are made of the same raw materials as fresh fish, and are processed when cooking.

Qin Shiou felt that this was unnecessary, so he took advantage of the time when the mackerel meat was thawing, found several large plastic basins, poured soy sauce, vinegar, water and cooking wine into them, and added maple syrup, chopped green onion, garlic and ginger.

After the fish was thawed, he asked the fishermen to cut the fish into sections and marinate them in a basin. After thinking about it, he asked, "Did you have venison and pork at the last party? Ok, we marinated them together. "

The old technician had a shocked expression on his face: "Guys, these fish will be on the conveyor belt later!"

Qin Shiou waved his hand indifferently and said, "Will it be enough to wash it after using it, what a simple thing!"

After thinking about it, he added: "The first steamer in the machine is airtight, right? That's great, then why do we need to marinate it? Isn't it good to just pour the seasoning into it and steam it?"

With cold sweat on his face, the old technician murmured: "You all worked really hard to eat smoked fish."

He had a hunch that in Qin Shiou's hands, the life of the machine might not meet the expectations they advertised, even if the armored vehicle was built like this, it would not be able to bear it. (to be continued)
