Chapter 449: Cooked?

Finally waited until three o’clock in the afternoon, and the auction was about to begin. Professor Chen didn’t care about his old age, and crowded with a dozen students, he squeezed to the front row abruptly.

Huang Zun went back and put on a Han suit.

She wore an ancient jade ring on her wrist, and a delicate and incomparably small bronze bell tied around her waist. Following her light footsteps, the little bell made a clear and sweet sound.

The noisy scene soon magically quieted down.

Huang Zun smiled faintly at the hundreds of people in the audience, his big eyes seemed to be able to talk, but the souls of many young boys were about to float.

Beauty!



Wu Jun stood by and couldn’t help shaking his head. The girl actually wore a peach blossom charm. It seemed that she wanted to focus everyone’s attention on her.

This idea is correct.

But today is an auction, not a beauty pageant.

When everyone is watching her, what should I do if I don’t go to see the crab?

“Hello everyone!”

“Today is the first day of our Nishinobayashi Food Festival. Have you all eaten well?”

After a long series of opening remarks, Huang Zun finally came to the topic: “Then our auction item today is a hairy crab!”

“How big is this hairy crab?”

“I believe many people have seen our photos on the Internet!”

“But I want to tell you that it has grown a lot in the past few days!”

“Now invite our hairy crabs to play!”

With a rumbling of music, Fang Heng walked onto the stage holding a huge iron cage, and put the cage on the ground with a bang.

The iron cage was covered with black cloth, and everyone still couldn’t see the scene inside.

Professor Chen stared at the cage, feeling a little dry lips.

He flew to Xilin City specifically for this hairy crab.

“Now, please see!”

Huang Yan said as he tore off the black cloth from the cage.

“Wow!”

Everyone took a breath in unison.



In the iron cage, a hairy crab measuring at least sixty or seventy centimeters was lying on the cage with its teeth and claws.

This sixty or seventy centimeters refers to its torso, excluding its splayed feet and pliers.

If you put it on flat ground, open two large pliers, at least two meters!

The black-brown hard shell like steel, and the big erect eyes, made everyone’s eyes glow.

“Surely you can’t finish eating such a big hairy crab alone?”

“It’s really big, bigger than the biggest king crab I have ever seen!”

“This is a killer crab, right?”

“This is definitely a hairy crab, I know it!”

Kakaka——

Everyone raised their phones and patted the big crab!

Professor Chen felt that his breathing was about to stop.

Had it not been for the railings in front of the stage, he would have liked to jump on the stage and take a good look with the magnifying glass.

“Professor, can hairy crabs really grow so big?”

“Could it be caused by a genetic mutation?”

“Or other kinds, just very similar?”

“It should be impossible,” Professor Chen said, shaking his head. “This is indeed a Chinese mitten crab. I knew it was so big, so I went directly to the organizer.”

“Then shall we buy it now?”

Professor Chen said firmly: “It must be bought!”

“Attention everyone!” Huang Zun said when everyone had seen enough crabs and then cast his eyes on her, “This hairy crab starts at one thousand yuan, and each time the price increases is at least one hundred yuan, now you can bid!”

Before her words fell silent, a middle-aged man yelled, “I’m out of three thousand!”

“Three thousand and five!”

“four thousand!”

“Eight thousand!”

In just over ten seconds, the price surpassed the 10,000 mark and soared wildly all the way.

However, not many local tyrants came to the scene today. Local tyrants disdain to patronize this kind of food festival, so when the price reaches 50,000 yuan, the enthusiasm for price increases begins to diminish.

“Five thousand yuan!”

The middle-aged man who made the initial bid, persisted until the end.

Just when he thought he would win, Professor Chen finally made a move.

“Five thousand five!”

“Wow, who is this!”

“How rich is it to buy a hairy crab for more than 50,000 yuan?”

Amidst the discussion, everyone turned to Professor Chen, who was calm and composed.

And his students are all urgently sending messages to raise money.

The middle-aged uncle gritted his teeth, with a trace of embarrassment in his eyes.

This is what he is good about. Since the last time he ate a small bowl of crab roe in Wangshan Fish Village, he has never forgotten it even more.

It’s a pity that the hairy crabs in Wangshan Fish Village are not available every day. Recently, even a single crab leg is not visible.

He thought that through today’s auction, he would be able to get a complete hairy crab, but in the end he made another Cheng Yaojin halfway through.

Plus, maybe the old man gave up?

“Fivety-eight!”

“Sixty thousand!”

Professor Chen’s counterattack was immediate and powerful. The middle-aged man shook his head and was immediately defeated.

“Sixty thousand yuan, is there any higher bid?”

Huang Zun Qiao smiled and looked around the audience, feeling disappointed in his heart.

In her expectation, this hairy crab can be fired at least to hundreds of thousands, but it is a pity that everyone is a little weak today.

So she looked at Wu Jun, who was sitting not far away, and asked with her eyes if she wanted the “childcare” to appear.

Wu Jun shook his head directly.

This girl, ghost and spirit, has too many ideas.

Auctioning hairy crabs does have the meaning of hype, but it is enough to stop it. In the end, buyers must eat it. After all, this is a food festival and the theme is food.

Can it be called gourmet food?

Huang Zun smiled a little regretfully: “Congratulations to this old gentleman, this hairy crab is yours now!”

Regardless of his old age, Professor Chen jumped onto the stage directly over the railing with the help of the students.

He first went to the iron cage and looked at the hairy crabs before he came to Huang Zan’s side.

“Old sir, I would like to ask you, what is your feeling now?”

“Hehe, then let me just say a few words.”

Seeing Professor Chen taking the microphone, several students in the audience couldn’t help screaming.

Professors are good at everything, but when it comes to academic issues, it is bound to be endless, comparable to the president’s speech at the school meeting every week.

Sure enough, from the origin of hairy crabs, Professor Chen has been simply talking about the fact that people had no food before liberation and they could only rely on eating hairy crabs to satisfy their hunger. He also talked about the crabs being transported to Europe and flooded, and finally talked about how many hairy crabs are a catty now. Ten yuan…

Several black lines were heard on Huang Yan’s face next to him, and the onlookers in the audience were almost astigmatized.

“Old sir,” Huang Zun said a little embarrassed, “it’s almost done, your crab is ready.”

“Oh, that’s it for now,” Professor Chen looked back. The iron cage just now was gone, “Where is my crab?”

“It’s ready soon.”

Huang Yan beckoned to the backstage, and someone immediately moved onto the table and chairs.

Professor Chen stared for a moment, what is this going to do?

Is there a signing ceremony at the scene?

Isn’t it just a crab, but to make it so formal, this organizer is really a bit old-fashioned.

“Old sir, please sit down.” Then he shouted to the backstage, “It’s time to serve food!”

Serve?

Professor Chen almost fell off his chair. Didn’t he sign it? What kind of food should he serve?

Could it be…

Impossible, Professor Chen felt that his forehead was about to explode. Did they cook my baby crab?

At this time, a waiter held a small bowl of fragrant crab roe and placed it lightly in front of him.

“The first dish is steamed crab roe!”

Steamed…Crab roe?

In the small bowl in front of me, it turned out to be half a bowl of delicious yellow-orange crab roe.

Professor Chen’s heart is not good, it is really steamed!

“I… my crab…”

Another waiter was holding a large plate with a section of orange crab legs, the joints had been cut off, and the thick crust was neatly cut in half, revealing the crystal clear crab meat inside.

“The second dish is fried crab legs!”

Also fried…Professor Chen felt that his heart had been cut twice by a knife, and the pain was so painful that he stopped breathing: “You…how can you…”

The third dish is slices of white meat larger than a palm, topped with emerald green celestial cucumbers, topped with tempting salad dressing.

“The third course, meat and cucumber salad!”

It’s cold…

“I…I want to live!” Professor Chen finally gasped, his lips trembled a little, “Live, I want to live!”

Huang Zun smiled and replied: “Old sir, crabs cannot be used as sashimi, because there are so many bacteria that they must be cooked before they can be eaten.”

Professor Chen almost spit out blood: “You didn’t understand, I want to take it home!”

“Don’t worry, old sir,” Huang Yu said, “If you want to pack, we will give you a quick freeze immediately!”

Professor Chen only felt a pain in his chest and his eyes were dark.

“Professor, what’s the matter with you?”

“Hurry up and get the medicine!”

“Boiling water, no, warm water!”

Seven or eight students were in a rush, rubbing their chests, and pouring water and medicine. As a result, Professor Chen couldn’t take it anymore.

Wu Jun frowned as he watched. Is this old man too excited?

It would be bad if something happened here.

So he hurriedly jumped onto the stage, unscrewed the mineral water bottle he was carrying with him, poured out some of the water from the Lingquan Well, and asked Professor Chen’s students to drink it for him.

Professor Chen was just anxious, and after drinking the water from Lingquan Well, he woke up leisurely soon.

“My crab…”

“Professor, the crabs are there, we haven’t eaten them yet.”

Professor Chen almost lost his breath again.

“I don’t want to eat, I want to take it back to study!”

Wu Jun understood that he was a professor who wanted to do research.

“Mr., if you want to live, you said it earlier,” Huang Zun said, “We are a food festival. The biggest attraction of holding an auction is to do it on the spot and taste the delicious on the spot. This is also clearly stated in the publicity notice. That’s right. And you didn’t say you want to take the live ones back, so we just cooked them.”

Professor Chen said in his heart, where do I go to see any notices, I will just look at the crabs.

As for not saying at the time, didn’t you let me talk?

I just said a few words, and the crabs are all familiar!

I knew what speech to give!

Seeing the crabs already on the table, Professor Chen’s tears were about to come out.

He endured his heartache and asked Huang Zun, “Do you still have such a crab?”

“Yes,” Huang Yan replied with a smile, “but I have to wait until tomorrow.”

“It’s fine if there are still more!” Professor Chen breathed a long sigh of relief, “Since there is still alive, it’s useless to take this back!

“Crab, the fresher the better, quick freezing will also affect its deliciousness, and it is easy to breed bacteria.

“So everyone come and eat it!”

“Thank you Professor Chen!”

“Professor Chen is great!”

“Well, save the shell, and I can make a specimen when I go back.”
