Seeing the colorful armored creature hide behind the nearby rocks, Su Qingci quickly followed it stealthily.

If you were to eat one of these things in the future, you'd have to wait five years. Now's the time to catch one and have a taste.

Su Qingci wasn't someone who hadn't eaten it in her previous life, but farmed ones simply couldn't compare to wild ones.

The prawn, covered in colorful scales, was frightened and hid in the crevices of the sharp rocks, refusing to come out no matter how much Su Qingci tried to shoo it away.

After observing the long beard protruding from the water and checking that there was no danger nearby, Su Qingci went directly into the water.

He crouched down carefully and didn't move for about six or seven minutes. Then, Caijia slowly sprouted whiskers and shot out with a whoosh.

At the same time, Su Qingci, who was completely focused, suddenly moved.

"Receive~"

The next second, the lively, colorful armored creature appeared on the farm.

Seeing the waves crashing in rapidly, Su Qingci quickly slipped into the farm.

Looking at the colorful nail polish in the kitchen, it seemed as if it had been frozen in place on the kitchen stove.

Its long legs were still struggling up and down as they had before it entered the farm.

Su Qingci curiously circled around it, looking at it again and again. This was the first time she had brought a living creature into the villa. Was it dead?

After the tide receded, Su Qingci grabbed the large colorful shrimp with both hands and darted out of the farm.

"Whoosh whoosh whoosh~"

The prawn in my hand suddenly began to struggle violently, its six powerful legs grabbing in the air, its tail arching as if paddling and slapping.

The one with the most strength was almost thrown off by it.

Before Su Qingci could think any further, with a thought, the large, colorful armor was instantly stored in the farm.

A sweep of the farm revealed that the lobsters, which had been jumping around just moments before, were now frozen in place, completely still inside the villa.

Su Qingci's eyes sparkled, and the corners of her mouth involuntarily turned up. "That's great! I didn't know that villas could have this function besides keeping food fresh!"

"Then I'll have to bring back more live seafood."

Who knows when I'll be able to go out to sea again? Kyoto is such a far place from the coastline, even if you have money you can't necessarily buy fresh seafood, not to mention that private trading is not allowed now.

Thinking of this, Su Qingci immediately headed towards the rocky area on the other side. Her arms were sore today, so she would put aside the task of picking goose barnacles for now.

This side is all shallow water with crystal clear bottoms, and many beautiful corals are distributed on the seabed.

Fish of various colors darted happily in the water. Su Qingci launched her small boat, sat on it, and searched carefully. She quickly found her target: a large blue dragon, which was even twice the size of the colorful dragon she had received from the farm.

But it was on the seabed, in a shallow area, at least a meter deep, huddled tightly in a cave at the bottom of a reef.

Su Qingci entered the farm with a whoosh and quickly found an old-fashioned diving suit and a steel fork in Mr. Mike's cruise ship's warehouse.

As long as she isn't attacked by large predators or venomous creatures, and with the farm at her disposal, her safety should be guaranteed.

Once in the water, Su Qingci nimbly swam towards the bottom of the reef. She had already obtained her diving certificate as soon as she turned 18, so her diving skills were undoubtedly excellent.

After spending some time bringing the Great Azure Dragon to the farm, Su Qingci immediately submerged herself on the seabed to search for it.

Unfortunately, apart from some oysters and not-so-large crabs, there wasn't much worth selling.

After she swam to a patch of water plants, she was jolted awake. She shook her head. Was she hallucinating from thinking about the big cargo?

Among the large patch of water plants, many claws were faintly visible.

Yes, it's like giant spider claws, densely packed.

Su Qingci slowly approached and gently parted the water plants, revealing large, adorable crabs of unknown species hiding among the water plants and mud.

It looks like a swimming crab because its two claws are huge and its head and carapace are somewhat like a shuttle.

However, there are many varieties of swimming crabs, and Su Qingci was not sure.

There are many kinds of crabs in the ocean, but many of them are inedible. Some have no meat, and some are poisonous. After all, her family's business also involves the catering industry, so Su Qingci still knows a little bit about it.

Seeing that it was lunchtime, Su Qingci collected a few large crabs and went into the farm.

It doesn't look poisonous, but we'll have to try it to find out if it contains meat.

I picked four that weighed six or seven ounces each and steamed them directly in the pot.

While the steamer was steaming, Su Qingci was not idle either. She rushed to the study and rummaged through the chests and cabinets.

She remembered that Ms. Xu Jia had brought back a book about seafood cuisine when she traveled before, and said that even if the farm was too far from the coastline to do this business, she should still learn more about it to avoid being ripped off when she went out to spend money.

I was drenched in sweat, but I finally managed to find the book in the corner.

Before I could even look, the electric steamer in the kitchen went off with an alarm, meaning the crabs were done steaming.

Su Qingci placed the book on the coffee table and then happily brought out a steaming tray.

A fresh, clean aroma wafted out, and even before trying it, Su Qingci was certain that this crab was edible.

I flipped through the book on marine delicacies and saw that it was indeed a blue crab.

The book details how to prepare it: it can be steamed, made spicy, or fried. It is rich in various minerals, fats, and proteins, and is best consumed from August to November.

It just so happens that it's the end of September now.

Su Qingci tossed the book aside and got right to work with her hands free.

The meat is fibrous and has a sweet taste, which is incomparable to farmed crabs. After finishing two crabs, Su Qingci quickly took the time to throw a few more in to steam. She still hadn't had enough!

After eating and drinking to their hearts' content, they didn't rush out to fish. Instead, they lay on the sofa and flipped through the books in their hands to catch up on their knowledge.

After reviewing it twice, half an hour had passed. Su Qingci then stood up, did some warm-up exercises, put on her diving suit again, and appeared in the sea with a steel fork in hand.

This time, without any hesitation, she started catching the crabs that were lined up like soldiers.

A fantastical scene was unfolding amidst the clear, shallow seabed and seaweed: plump crabs inexplicably vanished from their spots, quickly causing panic. The crabs that had been living among the seaweed seemed to have encountered something terrifying and began to scatter in all directions.

Su Qingci darted swiftly through the water, collecting crabs with incredible speed. She could accurately bring crabs three or four meters apart to the farm. After collecting the nearby ones, she would move on to the more distant ones. With a thought, she could make the distant crabs disappear and reappear in the farm.

Five meters, six meters, seven meters, eight meters~

Okay, she can't see beyond 10 meters. Even in crystal-clear water, her vision is already at its limit.
