Chapter 70 Adding to the shamelessness
On the way back, Chen Qing began to deal with the giant crabs. There were 169 giant crabs in total, and it cost Chen Qing nearly 1,000 spider bombs.
Each Sapphire Crab's eyes turn into sapphires after it dies, with the quality determined by its strength in life and the number of gems it ingested.
Dressed in a one-piece latex suit, Chen Qing transformed into a ruthless fish butcher. With a blank expression, he used the dagger in his hand to cut open the giant crab's eyeballs and pulled out the hidden sapphire.
This job requires a lot of skill; if you're not careful, the entire eyeball will burst with juice.
In particular, the giant armored crab's eyes are enormous, about the size of a ball, and the entire deck can only fit one giant armored crab.
Her movements were fluid and graceful; the sharp dagger in her hands was like a toy that she could easily manipulate.
With a single slash, the murky liquid obediently flowed onto the deck, leaving behind a limp, lifeless piece of skin, which she casually tossed to the Blood Spirit, who was nailed to the deck nearby.
However, not all giant crabs have water-like liquid in their eyes; some have viscous liquid, and some even have solids.
Chen Qing observed that the more solid the substance inside the eye, the better its quality.
The solid inside the eyes of that royal blue giant crab was almost as hard as stone.
However, under Chen Qing's immense strength, not to mention stone, even steel could be easily broken.
The sapphires in the giant crab's eyes were dug out, and all the sapphires were casually thrown into a bucket of water nearby.
The giant crab from which the gem was extracted was then handled by the super-powered vines, but they were indeed a bit slow.
Chen Qing sped up his gem-digging, and the giant armored crabs piled up one on top of another, causing the ship to sink considerably.
Chen Qing had listed most of the giant crabs that had been processed with super-powerful vines for sale on the trading channel, and he needed to clear out his warehouse.
Fortunately, it is edible and the meat tastes quite good.
Regular consumption can slightly improve physical attributes. Chen Qing kept some of the stronger giant crabs for himself and sold the rest to survivors in the private channel.
Some were listed on the trading channel, while Chen Qing continued to kill the rest.
Super Vine isn't very good at killing fish, and its somewhat bulky size makes it slow to dismantle giant crabs.
Chen Qing used to work as a part-time fish butcher in a supermarket and kitchen, where the hourly wage was relatively high, and she was very familiar with the job.
The black knife instantly transformed into a fish-killing tool, its blade exceptionally sharp. Chen Qing's movements were incredibly smooth and fluid as he cracked open the shell, removed the gills, chopped off the legs, and minced the crab, completing the entire process in one go.
The super-powered vines on the side were responsible for separating the crab pieces and legs, and the remaining scraps were given to the Blood Spirit if it could eat them, and thrown into the sea if it couldn't.
When the ship arrived at the port, Chen Qing had just finished chopping the last crab and was covered in the smell of the sea.
The deck reeked of fish, and many strange-looking black birds perched on the mast.
Chen Qing tossed a piece of crab meat into the air. The black birds were very fast, and in an instant, they tore the book-sized piece of crab meat to shreds and swallowed it with their mouths full of sharp teeth.
Not a single crumb fell off.
Even birds in the sea are so powerful in combat.
Chen Qing had the super-powered vines clean the deck, while she moved all the crab meat into the kitchen storage room.
The kitchen only has two refrigerators, which are always full of food and simply cannot hold this much crab meat.
Even the warehouse couldn't hold that much crab meat; that one Royal Sapphire Giant Crab alone could fill more than half of Chen Qing's ship.
With so much crab meat, Chen Qing simply invited everyone she knew on the island to a crab feast.
Zhao Fuli and the others who were seeking survival were also among those invited.
As for the preparations, those were naturally left to the super-powered vines.
Chen Qing went back to her room to wash off the fishy smell from her body.
When she came out of the bathroom, the super-powered vines had already set up a barbecue grill.
Zhao Fuli and the others already worked at the port, so they were among the first to arrive.
Besides them, Chen Qing also invited the shipyard owner, Ariel from the Bounty Hunter Guild, the Fire Monkey hunters, and One-Eye and Tang from the Recycling Plant.
A few dozen people arrived sporadically and gathered on the deck.
However, since Chen Qing, the owner, did not come out, none of them ate first. Instead, they helped the super-powered vines process the ingredients.
Fire Monkey and her companions brought plenty of drinks and seasonings. When it comes to grilling meat, these hunters who live a nomadic life are experts at it.
Ariel reluctantly bought Chen Qing a bouquet of flowers, while the shipyard owner brought fruit and vegetables.
Zhao Fuli and her group didn't come empty-handed either; they actually brought their secret-recipe roasted meat.
When Chen Qing came out, Zhao Fuli was arguing with Huo Hou about whose grilled food was better.
The warm yellow light shone on everyone's face, and everyone wore a smile.
Delicious food can indeed make people feel good.
but……
Chen Qing tied up her hair, which she had just trimmed in the bathroom, and frowned slightly.
Looking at Shangjia, who was stirring up trouble in the crowd, she didn't remember inviting Shangjia.
"Chen Qing."
Seeing Chen Qingzhao's eyes light up, he immediately pulled her over to reason with him.
When it comes to barbecue, the food stalls in China are definitely the best, right?
Chen Qing shook his head helplessly.
"Why don't you try and see?"
A slight smile appeared on Chen Qing's face, gesturing for them to look ahead.
Super Vine is bringing up a plate of prepared crab meat, along with other ingredients.
Upon hearing Chen Qing's words, a fierce fighting spirit instantly ignited in the eyes of Zhao Fuli and Huo Hou.
"Who's afraid of who!"
The two spoke in unison and rushed toward the super-powered vines, and the others followed suit without prior arrangement.
Chen Qing grabbed Shang Jia's clothes as he was about to join the fun.
"I don't think I invited you, did I?"
Chen Qing stared at Shang Jia with his dark eyes, his tone gentle yet inexplicably dangerous.
But who is Shangjia? She's incredibly shameless.
"Ugh, that guy Yuan really doesn't give me dinner."
"I guess I can only mooch off you."
At this moment, Shangjia seemed like a different person, putting his hand on Chen Qing's shoulder and hugging her with a playful smile.
The force exerted was terrifying; Chen Qing couldn't break free at all.
"..."
To the uninformed, one might assume that Chen Qing and Shang Jia have a very good relationship, but the two almost had a conflict the day before.
"Add more!!!"
As soon as Shang Jia finished speaking, a roar came from the giant ship next to Chen Qing.
Then, Yu'an appeared in front of them with a dark face. Looking at Shangjia who was still waving at her, Yu'an felt extremely embarrassed.
How could you tell outsiders about something like this!
Besides, even if she's not given food, does the kitchen door really think it can stop her?
When has she ever truly gone hungry?!
"Hey, Yu'an, want some?"
Shangjia not only freeloads himself, but also brings the rest of the Demon Dragon Pirates to freeload with him.
They really have thick skin.
