Island Management: Starting With the Heart of Ocean as a Prize

Chapter 23: Poison Release in the Middle of the Night, a Private Message From a Flower

The time had unknowingly arrived at dusk.

The sunset and dusk, the scenery had a different flavor.

Qi Hang then took out the sea breeze whistle and lightly blew it.

The cormorant immediately flew up from the high cliff in the distance and landed on his shoulder.

He reached out and gently stroked the cormorant’s soft feathers. The cormorant was very clingy and used its small head to rub Qi Hang’s cheek.

This scene made the students in the group video extremely envious. This also melted many girls’ hearts.

The cormorant made a comfortable cooing sound under his touch. It was deep and full of magnetism.

Qi Hang smiled slightly. “It’s okay to eat crabs tonight, right?”

The cormorant tilted its head, not seeming to object.

“However, you can’t just eat crabs.” Qi Hang made a gesture. “Go and eat a fish to fill your stomach.”

The whistle sounded and the cormorant moved. It spread its wings and glided in an elegant curve in the sky. Like a sharp arrow, it suddenly plunged into the water.

Not long after, it surfaced again and swallowed a sea fish in its mouth.

“Let’s go.”

Qi Hang picked up two nets filled with green crabs, tidied up the bamboo basket, picked up his phone, and slowly walked home.

Behind him were Little White and the cormorant, who were shaking their heads one after the other. It was quite comical.

“Qi Hang, someone just said that you caught a butter crab. Is that true?”

“Yeah, how do you judge this thing?”

“I just did a search. The top-grade butter crab is much more expensive than the hairy crab. It costs more than 1,000 yuan for 500 grams.”

Faced with the questions of his classmates, Qi Hang finally responded.

“It’s not difficult to tell whether a green crab is a butter crab or not. You just need to see if the joints at the crab’s feet are golden yellow.”

“As for whether or not a butter crab came out just now, I didn’t notice it. It’s not something very precious. It doesn’t matter if it’s there or not.”

A butter crab was not something very precious?

It did not matter if it was there or not?

These words immediately made everyone speechless.

Some people felt that Qi Hang was too casual, and it was not good to not worry about anything.

Some people felt that he was faking it, and they definitely did not know just how happy he was. Maybe he was just embarrassed to show it in front of them.

But no matter how they guessed, Qi Hang no longer paid attention to this group of people.

He still had to make dinner.

There were quite a lot of crabs, and he could make a few more ways to make them.

However, since Little White and the cormorant still had to split a portion, Qi Hang decided to make a spicy crab and a steamed crab.

He heard from his classmates that there might be butter crabs in there, so Qi Hang sifted through them and found two butter crabs with bright yellow joints.

After eating the bait with the essence of the ocean, they looked even more exquisite.

At this time, the number of people who joined the group video had increased, and they basically had free time after work.

Almost the entire class was watching Qi Hang cooking crabs and treated this group video as a live broadcast.

Through Qi Hang’s previous reminder, they also recognized that these two were indeed butter crabs that were one in a hundred. Moreover, their quality was excellent, and they were the kind that was one in a hundred among the butter crabs.

If they were sold, they would definitely be worth a lot.

“I’m afraid that one bite would cost several hundred,” someone guessed, “Qi Hang would definitely not be willing to eat them. After all, they are so rare.”

The classmate who felt that Qi Hang was pretending immediately agreed. “That’s right. The income from this butter crab is probably equivalent to the income from fishing out at sea for a month, right? How could Qi Hang eat them?”

However, the truth smashed his face.

Qi Hang directly treated the two butter crabs separately.

One was fragrant and spicy, and the other was steamed!

The steamed one spent a little more effort. In order to prevent it from struggling to break its pincers during the steaming process and causing the essence to flow out, it had to be mixed with a good flower carved wine and a little salt to intoxicate it, then, it was put into the pot and steamed together with the ordinary green crab.

After dealing with this one, the other one would be easy to deal with.

He went to the courtyard to pick some peppers and onions and garlic, then he began to heat up the pot to extract aroma.

Not long after, two servings of fresh and fragrant crabs came out of the oven one after another.

Qi Hang took the lead to pick up the steamed butter crab, and slowly opened the body parts toward the camera.

Instantly, the crab oil that looked like congealed fat flowed out. When he opened the lid, it was filled with crab paste.

The people who were separated by the screen could not help but salivate. They also ordered a spicy green crab takeaway.

Little White was attracted by the fragrance. It looked at the butter crab on the table and drooled.

“Okay, I’ll give you half of it.”

Qi Hang first dealt with the crab stomach, the crab lungs, the crab heart, and other places that could not be eaten. Then, he used a knife to cut the meat in half. He removed the meat and placed the large piece of crab paste in the bowl on the ground.

Little White could not wait to pounce on it and lick it indiscriminately. In just a few mouthfuls, it ate it all.

Although it was a little unsatisfied, it did not ask Qi Hang for the other half anymore.

The people who received the video in the class group were immediately numbed.

“F*ck, even the dog’s food is so good! May I ask if the Qi family still lacks servants or pets!”

“Humans are inferior to dogs. Even dogs have butter crabs to eat, and I don’t even have green crabs to eat.”

“Life is so sour. Today, I have a lifetime’s worth of lemons. Comrades, I can’t take it anymore.”

Qi Hang himself slowly poured a glass of wine. He broke off the crab legs one by one and used small scissors to open the shell. Then, he dipped the white and tender crab meat into the crab paste and slowly put it into his mouth to taste. From time to time, he would drink a mouthful of wine to reset the taste in his mouth, this allowed him to experience the most complete taste.

Using the time of a meal to taste a butter crab, was it not also a kind of enjoyment?

A group of people shouted that this was like releasing poison in the middle of the night.

The people who ordered the green crab takeout also tasted the same glorious taste in their mouths.

Compared to the butter crab, it was still vastly different.

“I suddenly yearn for this kind of life. It’s too wonderful,” said a girl.

“Who wouldn’t be envious of such a leisurely life? If I had the means, I would have done the same.”

“I reckon that only Qi Hang in our class has the courage to give up everything and yearn for life.”

“Sigh, after all, he has the ability. Even if he can’t stay at home anymore, it’s still easy for him to find a promising job.”

After having a good meal and wine, Qi Hang looked at the students who were constantly sighing with emotion. He did not say much. Instead, the moment he opened his mouth, he wanted to hang up the video.

“It’s getting late. I should pack up and rest.”

Immediately, someone was reluctant to leave. “Don’t, Qi Hang. Let us see the scenery on your side again. The beach at night is also very beautiful.”

“Let’s talk again next time.”

Qi Hang looked at the profile picture of the psychological counsellor and said, “Counsellor, I’ll go first.”

The latter nodded with a smile, and Qi Hang exited the group video under the urging of the crowd.

Since the ‘live streamer’ had already gone offline, these onlookers naturally had no intention of staying any longer and left one after another.

Qi Hang flipped through his phone and suddenly saw a private message.

[Student Qi Hang, the scenery over there is so beautiful. Is it over at the island’s Egret City?]

Qi Hang glanced at the remarks. Her name was Xie Yulu. In his limited memories, he only remembered that she seemed to be the prettiest student in the school.
