Four Hundred and Eighty Nine Quiz
The sharp blade cut sideways at the position of the fish fin, from the edge of the fish scale to the fish bone, and stopped.
Lorraine drew out his sword, turned the fish over, and did the same from the other side, cutting off the fish bone neatly.
The huge head of the coho salmon was separated from the body with its internal organs, and was thrown into the sea by Lorraine without any trace.
The second step in killing fish is to remove the scales.
Different from the delicate and smooth scales of ordinary fish, the scales of salmon are thick and hard. The common method of scraping the scales is difficult to be thorough, and it will damage the fish, which is not advisable.
Lorraine cut in from the tail of the fish with the sword, felt the strange touch from the handle, found the gap between the skin and the flesh of the fish, stopped, and moved slowly towards the head of the fish.
It is conceivable that this kind of delicate work is not suitable for umbrella swords at all.
Because the Umbrella Sword adopts the general shape of a slender sword, although it has a one-way blade like a fish knife, but the blade is narrow and thick, and it is a full meter long.
But Lorraine had to ask for trouble again.
Not only must he use his umbrella sword to open the fish, but he must also act relaxed and happy, never hurting the fish, let alone letting fish blood and other filth splash on the pure white waistcoat.
Talking is a game, and no one would make unnecessary moves on such a formal occasion, so Sir Tussela's every word, deed, and every move must have references related to the topic of the talk.
What Lorraine has to do is to solve the puzzle and accurately convey his answer in a way that fits the scene.
Very fun game.
Jazz's scene for today is sea fishing.
There are fishing gear, kitchen utensils, condiments, ingredients, knives for opening fish and other tools that may be used on the seawall.
So the first riddle is not difficult to decipher.
Catch = Miami.
While picking the fish skin with an awkward umbrella sword, Lorraine guessed maliciously in his heart.
If Sir Tussela has been unable to catch fish today, how will this well-conceived meeting end?
Cheating?
Just thinking of the key point, Lorraine suddenly felt a light hand, and the fish skin was completely separated from the fish body, and the pink fish flesh was exposed, with clear lines and perfect.
The second mystery, the power to cook fish = the qualification to develop Miami, the knife for cooking = the armed forces to defend the town.
Showing the catch to Lorraine, Tussela was telling Lorraine that all of Florida is Spanish territory.
Lorraine's request to Tussela to cook by himself not only represents his recognition and support of Spain's territorial rights to Miami, but also reminds Tussela that the process of acquiring Miami by the Drake Chamber of Commerce is legal and has been approved by all relevant countries and authorities. common recognition of power.
Therefore, Tussela has no position to refuse Lorraine's request to cook fish, and there is no reason to try to change the status quo in the Miami area.
The talks thus entered the second topic.
Tussela allowed Lorraine to cook salmon, and offered to lend a fish knife, telling Lorraine that he was going to send troops to Lorraine's private territory.
Lorraine drew his sword backhand.
.
bark...
The skin of the fish was peeled off, and Lorraine pressed the flesh of the fish and made a knife from the back of the fish, then cut the belly of the fish again, and peeled off the fish bones neatly, leaving only two complete and pure fish flesh.
"Does Jazz like sweet and sour taste?" Lorraine asked with a smile.
"I will not object to anything that whets the appetite," Ser Tussela replied.
Lorraine was not at all surprised by this answer.
He washed the sword with clean water to remove the remnants of the sword body. He also washed and peeled the fat fish, and poured it into a glass bowl with yogurt, onion, coriander leaves, saffron and vanilla mince,
Well marinated.
When he started picking willow branches in front of the oven, the atmosphere finally became uncontrollably wise.
Jazz himself knows nothing about cooking. After all, the aristocratic tradition does not require men to know how to cook, and whether they can cook has always been related to personal hobbies and experiences.
So in his own way, although he prepared a full set of ingredients for cooking salmon on the pier according to the chef's suggestion, he always believed that the only thing he could eat in the end was pure natural sashimi sliced into thin slices.
But he ignored that Lorraine was cooking salmon today... As a senior sailor, how could he not know how to cook fish?
"Ahem! That...President Drake, what is your plan?"
"A simple refreshment, smoked salmon balls."
"Smoke..."
Jazz rolled his eyes violently, and without saying a word, he called out all the chefs who were ambushing in the dark.
That's right!
When he chose cooking as today's guessing method, he did have the intention of making things difficult for Lorraine, but that was only because such making things difficult meant a lot to Spain.
Once Lorraine gave up the right to dispose of the catch, or borrowed the Jazz's fish knife when disposing of it, according to the rules of the social game, Spain can justifiably take back the Miami area.
This matter may sound childish and naive, but major events in the world are often decided in the process of boring games, and this has been the case throughout the ages.
But Lorraine made all his calculations come to naught. Not only did he deal with it with ease, but he also threw a difficult problem backhand.
If you really let your guests wear dresses and light fires in front of you to do chores, jazz will completely become a joke in the social circle!
After tonight, the reputation of the family and the image of the past will be gone forever, and the eight American bison will never want to bring them back to their original positions!
This is a critical moment for the life and death of the Tusella family!
Under the orders of the Sir, a large group of chefs and servants came out from the corners, staring at the man-eating eyes, and surrounded the Lorraine holding the tinder three layers and the outer three layers tightly.
Lorraine pretended to spread his hands helplessly: "Sir, I need space."
"No one questions your dominance over this cooking, President, the salmon is yours."
Tussela tried hard not to make his eagerness too obvious.
"But cooking takes a lot of time. You are a guest, so you can't do everything yourself, can you?"
"Having said that..." Lorraine pondered for a moment, and said awkwardly, "But if you ask your servant to provide assistance, will it violate my original intention of cooking delicious food for you?"
"this……"
"President, I think we can adopt some compromise methods, which will not hurt the goodwill of Jazz, but also satisfy your wishes."
Carmen, who had been watching the excitement from the sidelines, made a sound just right. While talking, she took out an octagonal gold coin from her handbag and flicked it into the air with a ding.
The gold coin rolled under the sun, shining golden light, crossed an arc, crossed the crowd, and bounced precisely to Lorraine's palm.
"Hire." Lorraine laughed happily. "Drake's strength alone is indeed limited, but I want to cook this meal with my own strength. In this case, hiring some people is indeed the best choice for both worlds."
As he said this, regardless of whether the head chef was willing or not, he stuffed the gold coin he just got into the pocket of the chef's robe, and patted it solemnly twice.
"Since I have taken my money...Mr. Chef, I will leave the rest to you."
