Chapter 1166 Fish and Shrimp Abundant Oram Lake
Lake Oram, the water is sparkling, a few water birds skim by, catch small fish, fill the belly, the lake is surrounded by wooden bridges, small pavilions, resting, or fishing.
There are not too many tourists coming here, after all, although this kind of scenery is good, it has been seen all around, and it is even more so from China, horseback riding, watching cowboy shows, animal concerts, train tasting food, and watching flower galleries.
Squirrel procession ceremony, and many other such as these are not available, tourists prefer, but there are also some tourists who are tired of playing, or come around for leisure fishing, horseback riding, and walking.
There are not many tourists, and the group rarely comes. "Hey, Han. "Nion, it's a pleasure to see you, are you okay?" was an old neighbor of Li Han, who had now moved to live in the small town of Bridon.
"It's not bad, man, it's nice here, I love Lake Oram right now. "Ninn, look at the net in Han's hand. "No, Han, maybe you should sit down and learn how to fish. ”
"No, Nion, I just want to catch crabs, fish and shrimp, barbecue at noon, if you have time, at noon, I invite you to have a drink. Li Han said that the fishing net went down to the water, put the bait, and clapped his hands.
"Barbecue, of course, such good weather, without a drink, is not what a cowboy should do. Nion, smiling, said, picking up the bottle as he picked it up, a bottle of whiskey, and showed it to Li Han.
"Alright, Nion, it's time for me to go, and at noon, I'll treat you to a drink. With that, Li Han got up and went to the vineyard on the hillside.
Along the path, after walking for about ten minutes, I came to the fruit grove, and I could hear from a distance, a few little people, cheering and laughing, Georgina and others screaming in surprise.
"It's amazing. ”
"That's right, look, the skin is so thick, the taste is really sour, but the meat is really good. Sweet. ”
"The most amazing thing is that the grape seeds here are actually huddled, which is really not small. Mila voice, Li Han smiled. "Oh, Han, come here, I can't believe it, look, this grape. ”
"Oh, that's good. It's quite big. ”
Li Han said, pinching one, grape small ping-pong ball, casually stuffed in his mouth, the grape skin is very thick, full of sourness, with the sour taste of wine grapes, but when you bite it, it is sweet and silky.
"Wine and grapes. ”
Li Han shook his head slightly. Although the combination is good, it is impossible to make too good wine, unless it takes some effort to separate the flesh from the skin. It's a little more difficult.
"Han, why, shake your head, difficulty. This is not satisfying to you, God does not like greedy people. Georgina, said. I ate a grape. "The taste was fantastic. ”
"Unfortunately, it's hard to make wine at the top. ”
Li Han said lightly.
"Oh, Han, you're so greedy, I don't think a lot of people in Napa Valley think so. Mira, said. "This grape has a very thick skin, and the wine must not be bad, enough to make a good quality red wine.
And this kind of grape is big, there is nothing, at that time the bunch was long, about a foot, the number was large, and the yield was absolutely high. I didn't see it, a few villains used to hug it.
"Perhaps, there are too few baskets. ”
Li Han picked two bunches, which were too big, and four to five bunches of a basket were already full, and I have to say that this kind of fifty-pound basket was too small for such a big grape.
"That's right, Han, I think you should bring more baskets, and of course there should be more people. "Originally, Georgina and the others still felt that the area was not enough, and they wanted to pick for a day.
Looking at it now, it may not be possible to finish it in two days. "That's right, Han, there's really too much here. "Mira, rub your wrists, damn it, the grapes are too big and heavy.
"Dinah, give Jem a call, hopefully there's someone available right now. ”
Originally, Li Han was calling people over, but considering the lack of manpower to build a patrol, and if there is a cattle farm, the cattle must have enough people to avoid being attacked by wolves.
Dinah called, but fortunately there were still people in the cattle farm, and sent two Chinese cowboys over, both of whom were new faces, and Li Han met for the first time. The newcomers learn the skills and knowledge of cowboys, practice riding, and wait for a while before they can follow the cowboys to herd.
"This is Han, the boss of Hank's farm. ”
Dinah introduced that Dinah and the two knew each other, riding, and sometimes, Dinah was in charge of teaching. "Chinese?"
"Yes, sir. ”
The two of them bent slightly, nodded, and spoke in somewhat stiff English.
"I still need to practice English, so let's speak Chinese today. ”
Li Han, said.
"Where's my hometown?"
"Nanchi City, Anhui. ”
"Oh, coming to the United States, studying abroad?"
Li Han knows that many people will work for a while before studying abroad. "No, our brothers come to work. ”
"Work?"
Li Han paused for a moment, and then understood. "The green card is down?" "Yes, it just came down this year. "Congratulations. Li Han said, you must know that black came to the United States, and it is definitely a thing worth celebrating to get a green card.
Chang Le, Chang Feng, the two are quite tall, twenty-five or sixteen years old, two years older than Li Han, they have been in the United States for several years, and they send some money home, the brothers originally planned to work for a few more years and return to China, who would have thought that applying for a green card would be able to live.
As soon as the brothers discussed, it was very profitable to raise horses in China, but there were many things in the United States, and the requirements were not high, so the two brothers decided to learn to ride horses and raise horses, which was not a coincidence of Hank Farm.
Coming to the vineyard, the two brothers' eyes widened. "What's this?" "Grapes, our mission today is to pick grapes." Li Han said with a smile.
The two brothers nodded stunned, it was the first time they had seen such a big grape. "Uncle, help Dudu move over. "Dudu, I picked the grapes and put them in the basket, but I couldn't move them.
Xiao Hei Hei came over to help lift it, and the villain had to call the two big uncles. "Good. Chang Le hurriedly came over, and suddenly saw the little black bear carrying the basket and was startled. "Bear, bear. ”
"Uncle, Xiao Hei Hei is the most well-behaved and doesn't bite. ”
Dudu touched Xiao Heihei, Xiao Hei rubbed Dudu's hand, and roared at Chang Le. "It's okay, it's a doodoo pet. "Picking wine grapes, this work started with a few villains, and they did it happily, but after two hours, all the villains couldn't do it.
"Take a break. ”
Li Han was helpless, the wine grapes were too big, and the two villains were very tired of picking together. "Han, I'd like to give Bella a call, Bella has a big team, maybe interested in wine and grape. ”
"That's a good idea. ”
Wine and grapes, wine, the quality will not be too high, and there will be too much to eat at home. Li Han took out the phone and called Bella, describing the wine and grapes, and sure enough, Bella nodded without thinking.
Now that there are not many grapes to pick, Bella can imagine that tourists will be delighted. "Chang Le, Chang Feng, let's move these grapes down the mountain, let's keep them here. ”
"Dudu, baby, let's go collect the nets and grill the fish to eat. ”
As soon as Li Hanyi said, the little guys cheered, threw the grape picking tools into the basket one by one, and ran over on their feet, they were very tired from picking big grapes, and several villains had sore wrists and rubbed their little hands.
"Han, so fast. ”
Nien, said with a smile.
"yes, that's good. ”
Nien has a few fish in the bucket.
Doodoo, baby, Maria, a few little people, come around. "Wow, that's a lot of fish. ”
"Grandpa, you're so amazing. ”
Dudu looked at Nien with a little adoration, which made Nien very proud.
"What a cute little angel. ”
"Dad, Netnet. ”
"I almost forgot. ”
Li Han passed, the fishing net was pulled up, and as soon as it moved, there was a loud sound in the water. "There are fish, there are fish. Several villains, all running over from the bucket, surrounded Li Han.
"There are fish. ”
Georgina and the others also came over, and even Nien put down the fishing rod and walked over.
"Dad, hurry up. ”
Dudu pulled Li Han's pants, full of anxiety.
"Uncle, the fish is going to run away. The baby pulled the other side, Maria, and Gina shouted to uncle, hurry up and pull the fish.
Li Han smiled. "Hehe, you can't run away when you come in, you can't retreat. ”
A few villains hurriedly ran back. "There's a lot of fish. The splash is getting bigger and bigger, and the villain is excited and blushing, clapping his little hands and tiptoeing to look.
Li Han pulled the fishing net and estimated the number of fish and shrimp in it, which was really a lot, at least dozens of catties. "Wow, that's a lot of shrimp. “
Pulling a net, there were a lot of finger-length prawns, and a few villains were busy running over, squatting down to pick shrimps, and the big shrimps were jumping around. "Baby sister, catch it quickly, grill skewers and eat them. "Toot dood, pedal to the side of the hill, and after a while, pedal and ran back, clutching a large handful of long grass roots in his hand.
"Hmm. ”
The baby whispered to cover the jumping prawns, and skewered them one by one with small grass roots. A bunch of them, it's pretty good, and Georgina came over to help when she saw it.
There are many shrimps in a cage, but there are not too many fish, but two large grass carp are enough for grilled fish. "One string, two strings...... Twenty skewers. Dudu clapped his little hands, and he had twenty strings of skewers.
There are twenty or thirty strings of dried shrimps, and the whole is nearly six hundred, not to mention twenty catties. "That's a lot. Li Han didn't expect it.
Nion, with a surprised face, so many dried shrimps, you must know that although Asian carp is not eaten by Americans, dried shrimps, Americans like them very much, and the price is not cheap. Oram has such a large area, I don't know how many shrimps, I have made a fortune, Nien is a total of a windfall, I can't help but look at Li Han, luck is really good.
"Yes, Georgina will take care of the children for me, Dinah will help me, okay?" Li Han, packing up the fishing nets, washing them and drying them on the side, washing his hands, came over and said.
"No problem. ”
Dinah helped, Li Han tidied up the oven, set it up, lit a charcoal fire, there are a few oven spots by the Oram Lake, but it is rarely used.
"Grilled shrimp skewers. ”
A few villains carried skewers of dried shrimp and ran over in groups. "Dad, toot roast first. "Okay, you bake first, Daddy will marinate the fish." ”
Li Han smiled and said. (To be continued......)
