Kapitel 20: Chapter 20: Making Money_1

Jiang Sanlang quickly picked up the deboning knife, drew it across the fish, and asked, "Where do you want a piece from? The dorsal flesh is delicate and can be made into fish slices, while the belly is fatty and can be braised or grilled, you see..."

The fox fur hat member gestured around the fish's body, "Just here, cut two more pieces of the fins, a bit deeper, more sticky flesh."

Apparently, the flesh under the fish's fins tastes the most delicious, particularly the large fish's fin meat, when stewed or boiled, it is delightful. His master especially had a taste for it.

"Alright then." With a swift movement, Jiang Sanlang chopped off a large chunk of fish and cut away two pieces of the fin. He tied them together with a thin hemp rope and hung them on a hook to be weighed.

"It weighs a total of twenty-one catties (about 25.2 kg) and three taels. I'll discount the weight of the hemp rope and call it twenty-one catties for you. It's two hundred and ten coins."
