Chapter 82: Worth A Try
When Kanp returned home with a small bag of crayfish, Hoshino had already returned from Hokage Tower, and he was instructing Hayate on Kenjutsu in the backyard at this time.Keiko was silently making onigiri in the kitchen.
"Kaa-chan, haven't you eaten yet?"
Kanp was a little surprised.
Keiko said without looking back: This is for your father. He is going to the frontline tomorrow.
Kanp sighed in his heart, What should come is still coming.
Then, he cheered up and handed the bag containing the crayfish to Keiko: "Kaa-chan, this is the crayfish I caught from the river. It's really delicious!"
"Huh?"
Keiko glanced at the bag and frowned, Crayfish? What is this? Can it be eaten?
"Yes, we have eaten it during our picnic."
Kanp lied calmly, "Kaa-chan, tou-san is going to the frontline, right? You should make a braised crayfish for him."
Keiko subconscious took the bag, seemed to think of something for a while, and then, she stared at Kanp helplessly and said, Kanp-chan, do you want to eat it yourself?
Kanp grinned.
It doesn't matter if he wants to eat it or not, anyway, as long as it is cooked, the matter is basically done.
Keiko cleaned the crayfish, and then, under Kanps guidance, he made a braised crayfish.
Because the spices at home are limited, only soy sauce, MSG, salt, ginger, dried chili peppers, spring onions, etc. are added, but even so, when the crayfish is cooked, the rich fragrance soon permeates the living room, and then floated towards the backyard.
It smells so good!
Keiko looked at the dozen or so red crayfish and green onions in the bowl, and she felt an inexplicable appetite.
"Keiko?"
Hoshino and Hayate, who smelled the scent of the braised crayfish from the backyard, ran in.
"Aunt Keiko, what are you making? It smells delicious!" Hayate felt hungry again.
It was brought back by Kanp-chan. It is called crayfish. Lets try it together.
Keiko took four pairs of chopsticks.
Kanp took the chopsticks, but did not eat the crayfish at all. Instead, he waited for Hoshino to eat one before he asked, Tou-san, how does it taste?
Hoshino nodded: Its very fragrant, very spicy, suitable for drinking, very good!
Kanp smiled and said: Then, if these crayfish are sold in a tavern, what do you think, tou-san?
Hoshino's eyes lit up when he heard this.
Tavern is usually for eating and drinking, so if it is accompanied by crayfish
Kanp-chan, this is an adult's business, children shouldnt Although Keiko also thinks that these crayfish are delicious, she subconsciously felt that Kanps current task was to study, not thinking of these messy things.
Before she could finish speaking, Kanp interrupted her directly and said: Crayfish has strong adaptability to the environment and reproduces very quickly. If it is promoted, it can be scaled up within a few months!
Kanp-chan! Keiko was unhappy.
But Kanp said righteously: Kaa-chan, everything I do is for the sake of the clan. The higher the income of the tavern, the better the life of the clan. In this way, even if some of our clansmen are sacrificed, we have the ability to properly take care of their family members, and it can also save the village's aid money!"
Keikos expression froze, and then she looked at Kanp incredulously: Eh, did I hear it wrong? How can this be a childs words?!
Hoshino's eyes flashed with excitement and he said: Kanp, I didn't expect you are so sensible! You actually think about the clansman and the village, I really am
Kanp smiled shyly: When the tavern makes money, I can go there every day to eat without paying.
The excitement on Hoshino's face instantly collapsed, I'm afraid this is his true goal. But, Keiko's onigiri is indeed cough cough!
Hoshino, who has a strong desire to survive, hurriedly diverted his attention and asked: Kanp, how do you know the information of the crayfish?
Kanp said: My classmate, who is from the Aburame Clan, told me about this.
The information from Aburame Clan
Compared with his son's unfounded words, Aburame Clan's reputation made Hoshino more confident, and then he said, In that case, it is indeed worth a try!
After asking where the crayfish was found, Hoshino went out immediately.
In less than half an hour, Hoshino took the two moldy old men, Inoue and Matsushita, to the big river east of the village. Using the moonlight above their heads, the three found crayfish swimming around in the location Kanp told his father.
Clan Head, are these things really delicious?
Inoue asked, What if it's not popular after it is launched in the tavern?
Even if it's not popular, it will not cause any damage to the tavern. Hoshino said, But if it becomes popular after the launch, two uncles, you should know what to do, right?
Of course!
Inoue solemnly nodded. He knew that if the crayfish is really popular as Kanp said, then Gekk Tavern can quickly expand with the crayfish and occupy more market!
Matsushita couldnt help but laughed and said: If these crayfish can really improve the economy of the clan, Kanp-chan can be said to have great contribution!
Great contribution?
Hoshino couldn't help but recall Kanp's words, shook his head and laughed, but it was still his son after all, so Hoshino coughed and brace himself before saying: Kanp told me the information of the crayfish. If the crayfish is really popular, then the tavern will be open to him for free in the future. If it is not popular he should be embarrassed to enter the tavern.
The two old men looked at each other and nodded in unison.
At home.
Keiko looked at Kanp with serious expression: Kanp-chan, why do you want to go to the tavern to eat so much? Is kaa-chans onigiri and sushi not delicious?
Kanp blinked his eyes twice, then turned his head with a serious face to look towards Hayate, who was about to go to the backyard with the wooden sword, and questioned: Hayate, how many times have I told you? You need to refine Chakra for two hours after dinner! Why did you go to train Kenjutsu immediately? Is it because what big brother said doesn't work?
"Big brother"
Hayate turned back, and said while feeling aggrieved, Uncle explained that he is leaving the village tomorrow. So, he wanted to guide me on Kenjutsu tonight.
"Even so, you can't just ignore my words!"
As Kanp spoke sternly, he walked quickly towards Hayate, but he only managed to take two steps before Keiko pressed his shoulders.
"Kanp! Chan! When kaa-chan talks to you, you can't just ignore my words, right?"
Keikos voice didnt sound pleasing at all.
Cold sweat dripped from Kanp's forehead, and he kept winking at Hayate.
Hayate was hesitant, and when he looked at the expressionless Keiko, he somehow felt very scared, so he grabbed the wooden sword and ran towards the backyard without saying a word.
Seeing this, Kanps complexion changed: Hayate, Hayate, you, you, you you've changed, you've become so different that I don't even know you anymore!!
Running to the backyard, Hayate looked back at the living room with lingering fears, and secretly thought: Aunt Keiko looks very terrifying when she is angry!! As for big brother I'm sorry
