My Deep-sea Fishery

Chapter 879: Xia Pengjie's Classmate

This kind of hermit crab called coconut crab has very fresh and tender meat. Before the technology of artificially breeding coconut crabs matured, it was once caught by crazy fishermen and diners and became an endangered animal.

If the technology of artificially breeding coconut crabs has not gradually matured in recent years, this coconut crab would still be out of reach of protected animals.

"Be careful, don't get caught by its pincers." Xiang Yang shouted to Xiang Hui.

The pliers of this crab are very strong, it can easily cut the coconut from the tree, and pinch the coconut shell.

"Don't worry, I know the seriousness." Over there, Xiang Hui replied nonchalantly, and then saw him catch the coconut crab, and then use a rope that he didn't know where to get, to grab the coconut crab. The crab is tied firmly.

"Okay, I caught it, and I'll cook it when I get back, try it out." Xiang Hui said with a smile on his face.

Xiang Yang took a serious look at this coconut crab, and saw that it was not only extraordinarily large, but also much more powerful than other crabs, looking like the king of crabs.

At this time, Fatty Zuo stretched out his head, "Is it tied firmly? Don't let it break free. If it really pinches you, it's not a joke."

Xiang Yang smiled, Xiang Hui tied the crab very professionally, as long as it was tied, there was no risk of being pulled away, the more the crab struggled, the tighter it was tied.

Coconut crabs can live for more than 60 years. They usually eat not only coconuts, but also various fruits and nuts.

Although coconut crabs are a type of crab, they have adapted to life on land and will drown if they stay in the water for too long. They mainly live on the coast and on some small islands.

On some islands, on small islands that lack vegetation, mice have been seen preying on coconut crabs, but sometimes the situation is reversed, and scientists have observed coconut crabs preying on mice on several occasions.

"Today is a blessing. Coconut crab is a precious seafood. It is not easy to eat it, because coconut crabs are generally distributed in the islands of the Pacific Ocean. In our country, it is only occasionally found in the southeast coastal areas. , It is said that coconut crabs are bought in the market, and the price of one is several hundred yuan. If you want to eat coconut crabs in China, you need to book in advance at a high-end hotel." Xiang Yang said with a smile.

Originally, the number of coconut crabs was relatively large, but in the past few years, with the mass hunting of people, the number of coconut crabs has declined rapidly.

Coconut crab meat is delicious, with a lot of fat in the abdomen and rich nutrition, especially its eight strong legs, which taste like the tail of a lobster and have a unique coconut fragrance, making it unforgettable.

In addition, the balloon-like tail of the coconut crab is full of crab roe, also known as creamy yellow. People who have eaten it praised it as the best in the world, and it is beyond words.

And the cooking method of coconut crab is very simple.

The naturally beautiful coconut crab does not require any fancy cooking, and you can taste its original taste by steaming it in water.

Although coconut crab is called crab, it tastes more delicate than other sea crabs and is closer to the deliciousness of lobster.

In addition, the coconut crab mainly eats coconut, so its meat tastes a faint fragrance of coconut milk, which is very unique.

"Okay, tonight I'll cook by myself and make stir-fried coconut crab." Fatty Zuo volunteered.

Xiang Yang smiled, it doesn't matter whether it's stir-fried or steamed, as long as Xiang Yang has to eat again.

Immediately, the three of them stopped hanging around, and went home directly to cut the coconut crab in half, boil one half in boiling water, and stir-fry the other half with shredded ginger and red pepper.

Such a large coconut crab is just enough for the three of Xiang Yang to share, and all three of them ate one to their hearts content.

"Sure enough, there is nothing wrong with the reputation. The taste of this coconut crab is not ordinary. It tastes much better than that of the blue crab." Zuo Fatty rubbed his stomach with a satisfied face.

Xiang Yang smiled, "But blue crabs are much more valuable than coconut crabs now."

Xiang Hui also grinned and said, "I don't know if the blue crab is worth much, but I bought a rope worth 20 yuan and tied it to the blue crab. If I sell it, it can be worth more than two thousand."

As soon as Xiang Yang heard it, he immediately turned his face hard, "Xiang Hui, you can't take this kind of joke, at least you can't come out of your mouth, if it is heard by outsiders, your aquatic business will be very serious." It will be difficult."

For the next two days, Xiang Yang was relatively free. When he had nothing to do, he went to Binhai Department Store to look around, and occasionally went to the beach to catch seafood.

During the period, Li Chao came to Xiang Yang once to discuss the matter of advertising, but the cost of this matter was too high, and Xiang Yang and Li Chao broke up in the end.

It wasn't until the third day that Xiang Yang really got down to business.

"Captain, I have something to tell you. I don't know if I should tell you." Xia Pengjie looked at Xiang Yang, hesitated to speak.

Xiang Yang looked at the dark-skinned but troubled crew member in front of him and felt a little funny, "You have already come to look for me, don't worry about anything, just speak out first."

Xia Pengjie smiled awkwardly, and then said: "Captain, are we going to continue recruiting crew?"

Xiang Yang looked at Xia Pengjie suspiciously, "What? Do you have relatives and friends who want to come on my boat?"

"It's not my relative or friend, it's my classmate." Xia Pengjie said hastily.

"Hey, what's the matter with me during the day, so it's just this matter, okay, I agree, you just let him rush to Qinglong Bend in the next few days, and try to be with us when we go to sea next time Let's go to sea." Xiang Yang agreed without thinking.

To be honest, life at sea is actually quite hard. Even with a high salary, it is difficult to recruit satisfactory crew members.

Especially the local young people in Yanlong Village have basically been divided up by Xiang Yang and Wu Shiwen. It is really difficult to recruit crew members for fishing boats like Xiang Yang.

Xiang Yang really wished for Xia Pengjie, a crew member who graduated from the Ocean University and received systematic ocean-related knowledge teaching.

"No, Captain, it's not him, it's them. I'm not talking about one classmate, but a group of classmates." Xia Pengjie spoke in a lower voice, and in the end, he didn't even dare to look into Xiang Yang's eyes.

"Huh?" Originally, Xiang Yang, who had been absent-minded all this time, raised his head suddenly after hearing this sentence, "You said you have a group of classmates who want to come on my boat?"

"It's all my fault. In the class group, I sent all the photos of our trips to the class group, and also revealed my income for the past two months." Xia Pengjie blamed himself.
