Toad, this was a common name. The scientific name was Forest Frog. Yes, it was the kind of Forest Frog that was often shown on television.
There were many types of forest frogs in China, but the toad mainly referred to two types of forest frogs.
One was called the Yanhuang Forest Frog, and the other was called the Black Province Forest Frog.
This kind of forest frog was very precious. It fed on wild animals and insects. In winter, it would dive into the bottom of the glacier and hibernate for up to five months. Then, it would revive when the flowers bloomed in spring. It was because of this characteristic that this kind of forest frog was also called snow toad.
The most famous snow toad oil was the fallopian tube of a female toad.
This thing, along with bear paws, monkey heads, and flying dragons, was known as the four great mountain delicacies of the northeast. It could be seen how valuable it was.
Originally, this kind of creature was abundant in the northeast. Gu Yu remembered that when he was young, there were many toads sold in the market. They were very cheap and could be found everywhere. His father often bought them for him to eat. Every time he bought them, he would bring one back for him to play with. It was one of the most important toys in his childhood. Of course, there were many toads that died tragically at his hands.
However, as the demand for these goods increased, these things slowly disappeared.
In recent years, there were very few toads on the market, and they were sold at a particularly high price. However, there had been a revival in the past two years, not because there were more species, but because humans could start breeding them.
"Looking at his size, he should have run out of the farm, but I'm not sure how long he has been in the wild.”Feng Shuyin said softly as she gently pinched the toad.
Looking at the scene of Feng Shuyin pinching the toad, countless 666s popped up on the screen of her phone. What a joke, other women would scream and go crazy when they saw it, but Feng Shuyin actually dared to grab it. If this wasn't 666, who was 666?
"Is there anyone who cultivates this thing nearby?”Gu Yu wasn't like those netizens who were making a fuss over nothing. After hearing Feng Shuyin's words, he asked in puzzlement.
A toad farm meant that there was a toad farm that sold this thing. This thing tasted very good, whether it was stewed, fried, or braised with potatoes. The taste was very good. Thinking of this, he could not wait.
Since he couldn't catch any fish here, he might as well buy some to try.
"There should be some upstream of this river. I remember that there are some in the village next door. You can go and take a look.”Hearing Gu Yu's words, Feng Shuyin smiled and said.
"Uncle, let's bring you there!" After Feng Shuyin finished speaking, the four brats raised their hands and said to Gu Yu happily.
Although fishing was quite interesting, it was a little boring for these little wimps. They had also searched the nearby area, so it was quite interesting to follow Gu Yu to buy toads.
"Alright, let's go!" Looking at the unmoving fish ticket, Gu Yu gave up. He clapped his hands and led the four kids along the river towards the village upstream.
The village upstream of Gu Village was called Yongping Village. This village was established by people from the pass when the previous dynasty invaded the east of the country. At the beginning, there were some conflicts with Gu Village. They fought for water sources and fertile land. Later, they fought against the Japanese together and formed a deep friendship. Later, the imperial court established the two villages. The two villages were considered a brigade. Coupled with intermarriage, their relationship slowly became closer.
Gu Yu followed the four little brats up the river. It was not boring to play around. After walking for about half an hour, they saw a tributary that had been led away by the river and a mountain that was surrounded.
At this moment, someone was setting up a protective net at the tributary and the river.
"Big brother, may I ask? I heard that there is a toad seller in our village. Do you know where it is?”Gu Yu said as he approached the person.
"Are you from the Gu Family Village? You want to buy toads?" After hearing Gu Yu's words, this person temporarily put down the work at hand and asked with some doubt.
"Yeah, I heard about it, so I came over to take a look.”
"You don't look familiar, eh? Are you that city person? Gu…Gu Yu?" Looking at Gu Yu's smiling face, this person thought for a moment before asking with some doubt.
However, after hearing his words, Gu Yu was even more puzzled. He didn't even recognize everyone in the Gu Village, so how did the people of Eternal Peace Village recognize him?
Actually, he didn't know that ever since he sent Gu Lecheng in on the Qingming Festival, the people of the Gu Family Village had one more topic to talk about. However, because it happened during the grand ancestral worship ceremony, almost everyone in the village knew what happened. They couldn't gossip, so the seven aunts and eight aunts of the Gu Family Village spread the idea of gossip to the nearby villages.
Chatting now was not as troublesome as before. All he had to do was make a phone call. Therefore, Gu Yu's matter was no longer a secret in this area.
Almost everyone in the nearby villages knew that there was a city kid who graduated from university in the Gu village. He was handsome, had a good figure, and was very capable. He raised some chili fish that was worth 600,000 yuan each. Then, he sold other fish that were worth hundreds of thousands.
Fortunately, Gu Yu's parents were still in the city. Otherwise, those who came to probe for information in the past few days and wanted to matchmake Gu Yu would probably have to trample on his family's door.
"Uh, you know me?" Gu Yu looked at this person with some doubt. He did not hide anything.
"Of course, you're the focus of the surrounding villages. Hello, my name is Ding Guang, I'm the toad breeder you mentioned.”Hearing Gu Yu's words, the man smiled and stretched out his hand, looking at Gu Yu curiously.
"Hello, Gu Yu." Gu Yu shook his hand and smiled.
"Let's go in and take a look." He waved his hand at Gu Yu and brought Gu Yu into the mountain that was surrounded.
However, just as he entered, Gu Yu discovered that there were many birds in the mountains. Actually, they could be called chickens because these birds basically did not fly. Instead, they liked to run on the ground. They were not big, but they looked extremely agile. When he saw this thing, Gu Yu's eyes could not help but light up because he recognized this thing.
Gu Yu was a grandmaster chef. As long as it was an ingredient, he could recognize it. Gu Yu was just thinking about this. This thing was none other than a specialty of the northeast. It was a flying dragon that was rated as one of the four great mountain delicacies like Toad Oil.
Dragon meat in the sky, donkey meat on the ground. The dragon meat was referring to it. Gu Yu really didn't expect to see such an unexpected gain when he came to buy toads!
