"Are you done with your work? Why are you back? Why didn't you tell me in advance?" Lu Jiu came over and looked at them strangely.

When Si Xu saw Lu Jiu, his eyes softened, "I'll give you a surprise."

Under the mask, Lu Jiu curled up the corners of his mouth, "It's quite a surprise, what's in the car?"

"Lu Jiu, we're friends, you have to help me!" Without waiting for Si Xu to speak, Jiang Ge grabbed a life-saving straw, "You don't lack exotic seafood, do you? I know you don't, I do, so much!"

Lu Jiu looked at Jiang Ge, then at Si Xu, "What's the situation?"

"He caught a big octopus, it is said to be very big..."

Before Jiang Ge finished speaking, the truck driver had already "banged" open the car door, and the air-conditioned air rushed out, which was even lower than the temperature outside.

The customers who came to watch the excitement took a deep breath when they saw the situation in the truck.

There was only a frozen giant octopus and a giant bluefin bream in the truck!

Such a big truck could only hold these two things. They were too big and looked like monsters. It was so scary.

Jiang Ge's eyes almost popped out, "There's a bluefin?! Such a big bluefin?! You have a bluefin, but you didn't even want to share an octopus leg with me, you are so heartless!"

Lu Jiu: "..."

Lu Jiu was also surprised. He was not surprised by the size of the octopus and the bluefin, but that although they had become bigger, their basic characteristics remained unchanged. At least people could recognize what species they were at a glance. They didn't look like the strange thing that appeared that night. Could this be the normal form of the mutated seafood?

Si Xu looked at the wide eyes of Lu Jiu and said softly, "I brought you a gift for your new store."

Lu Jiu: "Thank you. I haven't eaten octopus and bluefin for a long time."

Braised octopus, fried octopus with sauce, spicy octopus, octopus balls...

Bluefin tuna is very suitable for sashimi and pan-fried.

In short, as long as there are good ingredients, there are many ways to eat it.

"Did you catch this?" Lu Jiu recalled the system's words "Our system is not worthy" in his mind.

Si Xu nodded, "We follow you to the sea. On the one hand, we protect those who go out to sea, and on the other hand, we check the situation at sea. Whoever catches the mutant seafood will get it."

The price of mutant seafood is very high now, and the market is in short supply. Catching mutant seafood means catching money, and no one will go against money.

"This octopus attacked us actively, and the boat was almost overturned. We attacked together, and I was the one who killed it in the end."

Si Xu kept looking at Lu Jiu while saying this, and it was obvious that he was proving that he could also catch seafood. If he followed Lu Jiu to purchase supplies, he would definitely be able to help.

Lu Jiu seemed to understand what he meant, but he couldn't give any response now.

The crowd was shocked. It was not an exaggeration to say that such a huge octopus could eat people. How did it kill people? !

The crowd was talking about it. It was the first time for them to face such a huge mutated seafood. They finally understood why mutated seafood was so expensive. They were risking their lives to catch mutated seafood. How could human life not be expensive?

Si Xu saw that Jiu was avoiding the question, and did not mention it again. His eyes fell on Jiang Ge. Jiang Ge was about to speak when he was interrupted by Si Xu.

"What are you going to do in the future? Didn't you consider the source of the mutant seafood when you were doing it? Are you going to buy seafood from everywhere?" Those

who can get the mutant seafood sales license are not ordinary people, otherwise only 17 sales licenses were issued when mutant seafood was in such short supply. Those who can get the license are either enhanced people themselves, or people related to enhanced people. Since they sell mutant seafood, they must have a supply channel for mutant seafood.

The individuals or groups that have obtained the warrant must not be ordinary people, otherwise they will die if they go out to sea. The higher-ups will not allow such things to happen. These things are handled very strictly, and it is not easy to get a warrant.

Now is just the beginning, and there are not many people whose bodies have been strengthened. It won't be long before the supply of mutated seafood can be improved. The ocean is dangerous, but it is also a treasure trove. By then, there will definitely be a big force that will end up. Si Xu is also considering whether to participate.

His main purpose was to help Lu Jiu solve the supply problem, but he always felt something was wrong. He did catch the giant octopus, but it was dark red, not the blue one Lu Jiu had brought out. He also caught silver fish, invisible fish, and black star clams. He specifically asked experienced fishermen, but they had never heard of these seafood. No matter

how smart and capable Si Xu was, he could not think of another world or another dimension, so he could not figure it out.

Jiang Ge looked at Si Xu and Lu Jiu expectantly, "I'm going to find someone to partner with us to form a capture team. As long as we are strong enough, we can definitely capture half of the mutant seafood market. Holding the channels in our own hands is definitely better than buying other people's mutant ingredients. Do you want to consider it?"

Jiang Ge thought of this when he applied for the mutant seafood sales license. The first person he wanted to bring in as a partner was Lu Jiu, who often went to purchase goods on his own and was definitely experienced. The second person he wanted to bring in as a partner was Si Xu. With his connections and background, there was no capture team that Si Xu could not form as long as he wanted.

However, Jiang Ge's ambition was just a flash in the pan for Si Xu. Jiang Ge was used to being idle, and Si Xu didn't believe that he could settle down to do one thing.

Si Xu: "Go back and talk to your brother about this matter. If he has this idea, let him come and talk to me in person. Don't waste my time."

Jiang Ge: "..."

Jiang Ge scratched his head, and he also knew what kind of image he was in the past. "Then, can you give me some of the giant octopus and bluefin? For emergency use first."

Si Xu: "This is Xiao Jiu's stuff. Whether he is willing to share it with you depends on his intention."

Jiang Ge looked at Lu Jiu hopefully, his heart and eyes were full of the transformed seafood, and he didn't notice that Si Xu's way of addressing Lu Jiu had changed.

Lu Jiu asked the chef god system whether the mutated seafood from the Earth plane can be sold in the store, and got a negative answer.

It can be sold, but the income will not be counted in the store's profit, so Lu Jiu will be busy in vain in the end.

Lu Jiu felt more and more that the Magic Fish Shop existed specifically to consume sea monsters.

Lu Jiu looked at Si Xu, "This is too much. We can't eat it all, so we will sell it to him at the market price of mutated seafood."

Jiang Ge was overjoyed.

Si Xu raised his eyebrows, and had already heard what Lu Jiu meant, which meant that he was not going to sell it in the store.

"Hurry up, unload and cut!"

Jiang Ge called out, and several people got out of another car, took out knives from the trunk, jumped into the car and were about to drag the giant octopus and the giant bluefin down. Lu Jiu hurriedly stopped them.

"You want to cut them in front of my store?" Not to mention whether the ground was dirty, would it be so brutal to cut them on the spot?

Jiang Ge was unsure, "Then... shall we take them back and cut them?"

Lu Jiu asked them to wait for a moment, turned back to the store, got a machete and a bucket, climbed into the car, cut off a section of the tentacle with one knife, and put it in the bucket. The machete was inserted into the thick back meat of the bluefin bream with force. Fortunately, it was not frozen into an ice block and could be cut. Jiu held the knife with both hands and pulled it from the head to the tail along the spine with extremely skilled techniques. Then he cut it from the side and cut it at both ends. He took a piece of the naked body and put them all into the bucket.

Jiu jumped out of the car with the machete and the bucket, "This is our lunch."

Jiu agreed to give half of the giant octopus and the giant bluefin bream to Jiang Ge, and asked Jiang Ge to cut them and send them over.

The onlookers came forward to inquire. They wanted to buy some to eat back. They could accept a more expensive price. But Xihua couldn't buy it no matter how much money he spent. They didn't sell ingredients, only finished products.

The trucks and private cars left one after another, and the crowd was still talking. Rujiu took Si Xu back to the store.

Rujiu was in a very good mood, "For lunch, we will have tuna sushi, stir-fried octopus and octopus balls."

The store did not have a special machine for making octopus balls, but there were similar stone slabs, which had a similar effect after heating, and should be able to make them.

Rujiu felt that he had not eaten these for a long time, and he was a little greedy.

Si Xu followed him slowly, "Okay."

Rujiu went into the kitchen, and Si Xu followed in. Rujiu rolled up his sleeves and prepared to process the ingredients.

Si Xu took off his coat and rolled up his sleeves, "I'll help you."

Lu Jiu looked at him and smiled, "Can you do it?"

Si Xu: "You can command me to help you."

Lu Jiu put the tentacle into the smart kitchen appliance under the counter to thaw it, and took it out and handed it to Si Xu.

"Help me wash the tentacle first and peel it."

Si Xu paused, took over the limp tentacle, how to peel the skin, he had to think carefully, put the tentacle in the sink, and it filled up the whole sink, and the water was about to overflow.

Si Xu stared at the tentacle for a while, "Can I cut it off?"

Lu Jiu: "Yes."

Si Xu took a knife to cut the tentacle.

The octopus and bluefin bream were both very fresh. After returning from the sea, Si Xu immediately contacted a refrigerated truck to send them back.

Zhou Mu and Wei Cheng saw the scene in the kitchen and their eyes widened. That person was Si Xu, right? He could actually cook?

The two approached the kitchen and saw that Si Xu was cutting the tentacles with a knife. The tentacles were soft and slippery. The two cuts did not cut the tentacles off, but almost cut off his fingers. The two couldn't help but sneer.

"Captain Si, even though you are the strongest, you may not be able to do this job." Zhou Mu teased him.

Si Xu looked up and saw them, "Did you win today?"

Even though Si Xu was far away in S City, he knew everything that Lu Yu knew.

Zhou Mu: “…”

Yong Cheng: “…”

Lu Jiu tilted his head to look at Si Xu, “Captain Si? Are you their captain?”

Si Xu: “The higher-ups asked me to lead Team Two, and I’m still considering it.”

Ever since Si Xu went to the base for a physical examination, the entire “Special Security Department” has been excited and crazy. Si Xu is undoubtedly the strongest one since the establishment of the “Special Security Department”. The higher-ups insist on letting him be the captain and lead a team. Si Xu said he would consider it, but has not given a reply until now. As a result, everyone in the “Special Security Department” calls him “Captain Si”. Are they trying to influence his judgment from the overall environment?

Lu Jiu: "Why do you have to consider it?"

Si Xu finally succeeded in cutting off the tentacle. "I don't like 'two', I like 'seven', but they have too few people. Now there is only one team. What I mean is, after they have two, three, four, five, and six teams, I will consider becoming the captain of the seventh team."

Zhou Mu: "..."

Wen Cheng: "..."

Lu Jiu really couldn't help laughing this time, "Are the higher-ups mad at you?"

Si Xu snorted and laughed, "Not bad."

Thinking of how his father almost kicked him out of the house after hearing his reasons, and told him to get out as far away as possible, and then he was thrown to S City for rescue. Lu

Jiu used soy sauce to pickle Chi Shen to remove the acid, and he had already finished his side, Si Xu was still playing a game with the tentacles.

Lu Jiu took over Si Xu's work and told him to wash his hands and wait for the meal.

Lu Jiu processed the ingredients very quickly. He first made octopus balls, and then stir-fried octopus and blanched octopus. There were five of them, so they could prepare more. These were not magic ingredients, and the Chef God System would not care how much they ate for free.

When Jiang Xiwen saw Si Xu, she was stunned.

Lu Jiu introduced them to Jiang Xiwen, the new lobby manager of the Magic Fish Shop. When she was a broker, she had no chance to meet an artist of Si Xu's level, but she met him after she stopped being a broker.

After the lunch diners left, Lu Jiu was done with his work, so they could start eating.

Zhou Mu and Wen Cheng cleaned up a private room, and they took their lunch into the room and ate together.

There were two large portions of tuna sushi, and the color of the pickled octopus was even more intense. There was a large piece of octopus on each sushi, which was very tempting.

There were also two large portions of octopus balls, as well as stir-fried octopus and blanched octopus, all in large portions, and chalcedony rice was available for free.

This is also why people from the "Special Security Department" would rather not be paid to work as waiters at the Magic Fish Shop.

Although the employee benefits stated that managers enjoyed a 20% discount on employee meals and waiters enjoyed a 10% discount, it was obvious that Jiu Jiu separated work meals from employee meals. Forget it. These days, lunch and dinner were almost all eaten in the store. Jiu Jiu did not ask for food expenses, and he paid them wages every day. Of course, they were embarrassed to take it. They came here purely to work and eat for free, and they did not need wages at all.

A meal at the Magic Fish Restaurant was almost their monthly wages. They could only eat two meals a day, so how could they ask for wages?

Shi Shuqing also mentioned this to Jiu Jiu. Since work meals were provided, there was no need to pay wages. It was them, the "Special Security Department", who took advantage and could not ask for wages anymore.

They originally applied for the waiter position for the employee benefits, but who would have thought that the employee benefits were just superficial, and the most substantial thing was the employee meals! They all ate with Boss Jiu, and whatever Boss Jiu ate, they ate too. If those applicants knew there was such a good thing, they would definitely insist on being waiters in the store no matter what. Fortunately,

Boss Jiu chose them. Boss

Jiu chose them, not only because he had no suitable candidates that he could trust, but also for a purpose, which was to promote the magic meal.

The magic meal cannot be eaten by ordinary people. If you want to sell the magic meal to ten people, you can only start with the people from the "Special Security Department".

Since Si Xu is back, Lu Yu should also be back, and it's time to make an appointment to form a group to eat the magic meal.

This lunch was quite satisfying. The energy of the mutated seafood was really limited, and it couldn't be compared with the monsters of the Starless Sea. Fortunately, with the blessing of Lu Jiu's cooking, it was delicious, but the energy obtained by the body was too little.

Among the five people present, four could feel the unknown energy, and only Jiang Xiwen couldn't feel it, but she could tell the difference from the taste. The dishes were made by the same person, but the taste was so different. There was no other reason except the ingredients.

"Wait a minute, add a meal." Lu Jiu said and walked out of the private room.

He took out the pickled Liuxi fish. This kind of fish is not big, and the body is thin, long and flat, like the saury on the earth plane. Liuxi fish is also a monster of the Starless Sea. It has small thorns on its body and is not suitable for making sashimi, so it is left behind. It cannot be wasted and must be eaten in a way.

He grilled five Liuxi fish to replenish the energy of several people.

"What are you grilling? It smells so good." Si Xu walked into the kitchen.

Wearing heat-proof gloves, Lu Jiu brought out the baking tray. "Liuxi fish, the leftover fish from the supply to City S, are small and have bones, so they are not suitable for making sashimi. I was just wondering how to eat them. Let's try some."

Si Xu laughed. "Others worry about having nothing to eat, but you worry about how to eat them."

Lu Jiu was helpless. "We have eaten too much good food. This kind of small fish with bones should not be popular."

"No, you can sell as many as you have." Si Xu held the tray for Lu Jiu. "Are there still a lot of Liuxi fish?"

Lu Jiu sighed. "Yes, quite a lot."

He did not notice at the time that the sound wave swept across a school of Liuxi fish. Each Liuxi fish was only twenty or thirty centimeters long. Just imagine how many Liuxi fish there were in a school. He could only drag the net bag to pick them up one by one. Just thinking about it made him tired.

As soon as the box was opened, the three were immediately attracted by the aroma and stood up to receive one portion each.

After taking only one bite, Yongcheng shouted, "What kind of fish is this? It's so delicious, tender, fragrant, and tasty."

Lu Jiu reminded him, "There are small bones, be careful."

Yongcheng's eyes sparkled, "It's okay, it's okay, you're not a child who can't be stuck by fish bones, this fish is really fragrant, and it has a lot of energy."

There is no harm without comparison. With the comparison of the mutant seafood, even Liuxi fish is considered "very energetic."

Si Xu nodded after tasting it, "It's really fragrant, and the fat smell is very strong."

It seems that he did nothing wrong. This kind of fish is really suitable for grilling. The subcutaneous fat will penetrate into the fish meat after being roasted, and the fragrance is strong and the meat is tender.

Zhou Mu said: "This kind of fish is fine. Our chef should be able to handle it. We need to give the captain some advice. Let's buy some of this kind of fish and grill them at home. One for each person. It's easy to share."

Lu Jiu: "The ingredients are in short supply. We may not be able to sell them, but you can come to the store to eat."

Si Xu: "..."

Lu Jiu blinked at him, his eyes full of cunning.

Thinking of Lu Jiu's regret for agreeing to sell ingredients to the "Special Security Department", and preferring to sell flower red fruit wine rather than ingredients, and thinking of delivering finished products thousands of miles to a small town in S City, and just now they said that there were a lot of Liuxi fish, and in the blink of an eye, the ingredients were in short supply. Si Xu seemed to understand the crux of the problem.

He chuckled and didn't expose it.

Wencheng took the bait obediently, "Go back and tell the Marines that if they don't eat more, those naturally enhanced people will catch up with us."

The five of them finished eating the Liuxi fish, helped to clean up the table, and put all the bowls, plates and chopsticks into the smart kitchen to clean and disinfect.

After finishing the store, Zhou Mu and Wencheng had to go back to the base in the afternoon and would come back for dinner.

Just after lunch, Jiang Ge brought the cut octopus and bluefin.
