Chapter 194: : The origin of gold coins

"Come, open the meal!" Holding a large lobster, Jiang Hai smiled and walked over to the table, smiling at the three girls who had been waiting here for a long time, and heard Jiang Hai’s words. On the side of Sandy Clive, Dalina and Marianne all ran to the kitchen to help Jiang Haiduan things. After a while, the big table was full of food.
Jiang Hai’s person used to cook before, otherwise he would not be starved to death in the year he stayed at home.
But because he later had money, and he was lazy, he was not willing to fire at home, so he would give Mrs. Fremont some money and go to her every day to eat, but for breakfast, he would still be himself. made.
But sometimes, he is not very good at going to dinner at Mrs. Philip's house, for example, this is the case.
He went with Dalina and Marianne, there is still a saying, but with Sandy Clive also go, Mrs. Philipmont may not feel any inconvenience, but Sandy Clay How much will feel a little uncomfortable.
At this time, he would pick up his own slightly crappy craftsmanship and make a meal.
Fortunately, Western food was not too difficult. Oh, of course, it is not too difficult to refer to Western food made by Jiang Hai.
He made a total of four dishes, cheese lobster, garlic fans steamed abalone, braised sea cucumber, fried steak.
These four dishes are actually not very difficult to make. The cheese lobster is very simple. First, the lobster caught by Jiang Hai yesterday is inserted into the tail with a solder. This is to urinate and then kill the lobster. Just like knocking a fish.
Then open the head and tail and throw away the claws on the body. There is no meat inside.
Cut the shrimp tail with the most lobster meat from the vertical line in the middle, and marinate it with salt, wine, juice, etc.
Then put it in the oven and bake it to a medium-boiled one. After it is taken out, spread it with cheese and bread crumbs, then sprinkle some pepper on the top and put it in the oven. It is enough to bake the cheese. Of course, the Boston lobster differs from the average lobster in that it has a lot of meat in its two large pliers. This needs to be knocked open, but it can also be eaten.
Steamed abalone with garlic fans is also very simple. Soak up the fans first. These are all bought at the old man’s shop in Chianghai, or else. It is not an easy task for the US emperor to buy a fan. The people of the US emperor do not eat this game.
Then clean the abalone, use a knife to dig out the abalone meat, and then throw away the abalone's internal organs.
Cut the meat on the abalone a few knives, but don't cut it. You can cut the pattern like the waist flower, put the fan into the abalone shell, put the abalone on it, and open the fire to make the garlic sauté. Put some steamed fish and beans.
Then spread the fried ingredients on the top of the abalone, put them in the steamer for five to six minutes, and then press on your own taste, you can sprinkle some things like chives, peppers, etc. Rolling on the oil, this is done.
After the abalone is made, it is delicious and delicious, but the taste is not too rushing. In fact, Jiang Hai dug such a large abalone. There is some waste in eating this, but Jiang Hai does not matter, because he has these things, some are.
Braised sea cucumber. It is a very common dish in China, but in general it is dried sea cucumber. It is not much like Jiang Hai’s fresh sea cucumber. However, Jiang Hai has this resource. After all, fresh sea cucumber is exposed to the air. The hour is gone.
And Jiang Hai has not been able to catch these things for a few hours. He ate, so he dared to use fresh sea cucumber.
As for the last fried steak, it is relatively unskilled. The main thing about the steak is two aspects. One is the fire, the other is pickled. The steak of Jiang Hai is chilled. Mrs. Philip has salted him. Ok, as far as the fire is concerned, he only eats all cooked.
There is no opinion on this between Dalina and Marianne. In the past, they couldn’t eat the steak. Now, it’s still a bit familiar, and Sandy Clive doesn’t care. To be exact, she likes it too. Eat all cooked.
Four dishes, although the number does not seem to be large, but the amount is absolutely large enough, that one lobster has eight or nine pounds, sea cucumber Jiang Hai at least half a catty, that half a catty a big abalone, Jiang Hai steamed Eight, each with two, and a steak, really enough, three or two pieces, he made ten, just by him and three women, it is not easy to eat.
"Come, open the meal!" After putting all the things on the table, Jiang Hai shouted and opened the meal.
He does not believe in Christ, and naturally prays before the meal, they will not do it.
With Jiang Hai's order, Dalina and Marianne here also took the chopsticks and ate them.
Originally these two gimmicks will not make chopsticks, but there are Jiang Hai, they will not make it.
It turns out that these children are really smart. It has been used for a few months, and it has made a lot of things. Maybe it’s something that is more difficult to clip with some beans, but it’s something that is common. , still not a problem.
As for Sandy Clive, it is not the first time to eat here, and naturally it will not be cautious.
"Right, did you read that notebook? What was written?" A few mouthfuls killed a large piece of steak, a chopstick picked up nearly a third of the lobster tail, and then ate a huge abalone, Chiang The stomach of the sea was temporarily mildened, then turned his head and looked at Sandy Clive. Shandi Clive also knew that Jiang Hai was such a temper.
So I don't care about my lady's image. I ate the lobster meat on my plate and said it.
"Probably understand, the person who wrote this diary is called John Wiltord, a British naval major. The things recorded above should be the time of the second war of independence."
When I heard the words of Sandy Clive, like Jiang Hai thought, Jiang Hai could not help but ask: "Is it written in English?"
"Yes, but it is normal for you not to understand, because this is not the English you are learning now, but the traditional English, some similar to the ancient Chinese text? Hey, this may not be true, but it is similar." To Jiang Hai’s doubtful eyes, Sandy Clive explained it with a smile.
It turns out that English is not from the appearance of it, it is now like this, and English is constantly evolving and evolving.
Until now, English has two branches. One is British and the other is American.
In fact, in Jiang Hai, the words between the two are similar, but in fact, in some small grammar and details. English and American English have branches that seem obvious to them. It seems that they are all in the Northeast, and the provinces of Liaoning and Heilongjiang are completely different.
Outsiders may look a bit like, but locals can be clearly distinguished.
This notebook is written in English. But it is not the current English, but the British English that has not been simplified since 200 years ago. It is precisely because of this that most of the words are taken apart and Jiang Hai knows, but the consciousness is not understand.
"This is written like this..." Probably explained to Jiang Hai, Sandy Clive also ate almost the same, and now he picked up the notebook and said Jiang Hai, in her explanation. Jiang Hai also probably understood the story.
Speaking of the War of Independence, most people will think of the Eighth War of the United States from 1775 to 1783. It is precisely because of these eight years of war that they have become independent countries in the world and have got rid of Britain, France and other countries. Colonial rule.
But what most people don't know is that the US emperor has also conducted it once, which is the second war of independence.
The time occurred between 1812 and 1815. It is not very glorious to say that this history is not because there is no winner in the end.
The cause of the war was because of the invincibility of Napoleon, the little dwarf in Europe. Wanting to unify Europe, the European countries at that time were dying, but only the old Russian Maozi refused to accept, the little dwarf looked. You will do it if you don't accept me!
Then he went to find the old Maozi, and the result was fiasco in the ice and snow of the old Maozi. He lost this. The original Europeans saw it. Oh, you are not so powerful! The tree fell. The wall is crowded with people.
Then the European side entered the Napoleonic War stage, the human brain became a dog's brain, a black smoke, Napoleon surrounded by strong enemies, the French royal family and nobles did not stop, always wanted to restore.
In the end, the little dwarf lost, and the second independent war of the US emperor broke out at this time. They also wanted to share a piece of cake, but they did not dare to go in Europe, so they set their sights on the neighboring, more developed. In Canada, I want to occupy Canada.
And Canada is the British territory, naturally will not agree, and the two sides have done this, and the original Americans believe that Napoleon can be more than a while in Europe, who knows that Napoleon lost so fast, let the British put more More troops were put into the battlefield. As a result, in the northern line, the British all the way to the triumphant songs, the first to occupy is Maine, Massachusetts is naturally not spared, and once attacked the US capital of Washington, a torch to burn It is.
However, because the battle line was pulled too long, the army that landed in the south was defeated by the US military in several battles.
Eventually, in 1815, the two sides ceased fighting and the border returned to its original state.
The protagonist of this notebook was the captain of a supply ship in the British Navy. This time, when he came, the ship only had one thing, the military, except for the basic supplies. Money is naturally extremely chaotic. Only hard currency, gold coins and silver coins are collected by soldiers, and the number of silver coins is too large.
So this time, he was ordered to a hundred boxes of gold coins to the US emperor to hand over to these expeditionary soldiers, but he did not think that the ship had arrived. As a result, the US military counter-attacked. In order to save these gold coins and escape, he ordered these The gold coins were thrown into the ocean at the time, and then quickly escaped. When they came back later, they would catch it, but he must have never thought about it. Later, his ship was sunk by the US military. The US military found nothing on his ship. And he also disappeared with this secret forever.
It was not until two hundred years later that Jiang Hai, who wanted to eat abalone, got it.
"One hundred boxes! Hey, this time is developed." Listening to the story of Sandy Clive, Jiang Hai’s mouth is getting higher and higher... (To be continued.)
