When Xiao Feng worked in Beijing, he worked in foreign trade for a period of time, mainly importing and exporting some high-end ingredients. He knew that some places in the country were now engaged in caviar production, processing, and sales abroad.

And according to him, the caviar was not cheap to buy, but he didn't expect that Zhu Ziqi's family was in this business? He didn't expect that it was cultivated here in Qiandao Lake.

Before, he only knew that there were people doing this business in the Northeast, but he didn't expect that it was also done in the South, and looking at the scale, it seemed like it was quite a big business.

This is what Zhu Ziqi's family does. Can you learn from her how to process this caviar? Or find sales channels and sell the caviar you find in other worlds?

Is this totally possible? When Xiao Feng thought of this, he almost jumped up in joy. This is the so-called "obtaining it without any effort". I had a headache before, how to buy caviar from other worlds in this world.

Of course, these things need to be carefully planned, but you can't talk to Zhu Ziqi directly, otherwise they may regard you as a business thief.

Zhu Ziqi took Xiao Feng to the lake. Xiao Feng glanced into the lake: "You didn't see any fish either?"

"Hehe, they are all in deep water, idiot. These fish are also raised in separate zones."

Zhu Ziqi explained to Xiao Feng with a smile, and at the same time pointed to the fishing net grid on the lake. Only then did Xiao Feng notice that the lake was divided into several parts by the fishing net grid.

"Why are they all separated?"

"Because fish are raised for different periods of time, they are divided into years. Those that are ten years old are mature and can be hunted for eggs. Generally, fish eggs that are twelve years old have the best quality and the highest purchase price. Fish that are younger are generally sold.

Not much price.”

Zhu Ziqi smiled and spread the knowledge about raising sturgeons to Xiao Feng, and told him that the sturgeons they raise are all imported from Russia. They have been raising them for many years, and their business has been good in recent years.

"I've always heard people mention this caviar. When I went to Russia, I ate it a few times. How did it taste? I think it takes a few times to get used to it. It's really hard to accept it if you eat it once in a while."

The few times Xiao Feng went to Russia, Peter always treated him to caviar. Caviar is the favorite food of Russian people, and Russia can be said to be the largest consumer of caviar in the world.

Of course, ordinary Russian people cannot afford top-quality caviar, so they only consume ordinary caviar. But even ordinary caviar, not caviar made from sturgeon and anchovy caviar, is not available in Russia.

It sells for about 300 yuan per kilogram, and ordinary people don't dare to open it and eat it.

"Ziqi, when did you come here? Who is this?"

Just when Zhu Ziqi was introducing the general situation of fish farming in this lake to Xiao Feng, a middle-aged man walked over from the small building on the other side of the fish farm. He was dressed in ordinary work clothes and was probably in his forties.

"Hello, Uncle Ji. This is my friend Xiao Feng. We happened to be here to play, so I took him to have a look. Xiao Feng, this is the person in charge of our fish farm, Uncle Ji."

Xiao Feng quickly greeted and shook hands with the person in charge. The person in charge of the fish farm named Ji also took this opportunity to look at Xiao Feng.

After introducing themselves to each other, Uncle Ji warmly welcomed them into the small building over there, found them an office, and even had someone make tea for them.

Xiao Feng was very interested in the process of raising fish and making caviar. Uncle Ji did not hide his secrets, so he laughed and introduced to him the process of killing fish to obtain roe and making caviar.

It turns out that breeding sturgeon is not a simple matter. It is a process with a very long investment cycle. Sturgeons generally need to grow for ten years before they reach maturity, which means they can be killed to collect eggs.

But generally sturgeons that have grown to about twelve years old produce the best quality roe. Such a mature sturgeon is about 200 kilograms, of which 15% is fish.

There are more than 20 kinds of sturgeons, and their adult weights vary from more than thirty kilograms to hundreds of kilograms. The largest ones are produced in the Caspian Sea and can weigh more than one ton. North American sturgeons

It can also grow to seven or eight hundred kilograms, and the variety that the Zhu family breeds is imported from Heilongjiang Province. It can reach about two hundred kilograms when it reaches adulthood, so it is relatively easy to raise.

Xiao Feng couldn't help but be speechless when he heard that a mature sturgeon can produce thirty kilograms of eggs. Thinking about the big fish he saw in that world, it seems that in terms of size, there is no such thing as the twelve-year-old sturgeon.

It’s big, but the weight of the fish eggs is not light at all!

I hunted several big fish that time, and the eggs I took out seemed to be able to produce more than ten kilograms each, but the size of the fish was not half as big as this sturgeon.

"Such sturgeon caviar, when made into canned caviar, costs an average of one hundred and fifty U.S. dollars per can. However, the quality of our caviar is not as good as that of the Black Province. After all, this is the sturgeon they produce there.

In the country of origin, they buy caviar by the gram. One gram costs about 20 yuan, but we can’t buy it for that much. The most expensive top-grade caviar produced there costs one yuan for 100 grams.

Forty thousand yuan per box, a fish egg costs 4 yuan..."

Uncle Ji was very enthusiastic and eloquent when he introduced the caviar business. Apparently he was lonely after spending a long time in this barren mountain. He was very happy that someone came to listen to him talk about his fish farming experience today.

, what’s more, he’s not stupid either. This boy is the boyfriend of the boss’s daughter at first glance, so if you talk to him a few words, you won’t be afraid of revealing secrets.

"What about this caviar? How is it taken out? How is it canned?"

After Xiao Feng listened to Uncle Ji's explanation of the current domestic caviar market, he then asked about the production of caviar.

"Oh, this, this is difficult. The technical requirements are very high, and ordinary people can't do it. First of all, after the sturgeon is caught, the eggs must be taken alive, and cannot be killed and harvested later. In that case,

It will cause the eggs to deteriorate. You need to knock the sturgeon unconscious with a stick first, and then disembowel the sturgeon to remove the eggs..."

Xiao Feng shuddered after hearing this. This process of killing fish and extracting eggs is quite cruel.

"After knocking the fish unconscious, the eggs must be taken out, screened and cleaned within fifteen minutes. Metal tools are not allowed to be used during the entire process. During this process, the eggs are absolutely not allowed to be contaminated with any metal, because it will cause

Fish eggs oxidize and change their flavor. Moreover, after taking out the fish eggs, the fish eggs of different sizes must be quickly separated, decolorized, washed, and filtered, and then handed over to appraisers for grade evaluation.”

Xiao Feng listened with great interest, and Zhu Ziqi started to yawn at this time. She was not interested in these things originally, but seeing Xiao Feng so interested, she kept suppressing boredom and stayed here with her. Uncle Ji became more and more interested.
