Finally, at three o'clock in the afternoon, the auction was about to start, and Professor Chen was forced to squeeze into the front row under the support of more than a dozen students.

Huang Yu went back and changed into a Hanfu.

She wore an ancient jade ring on her wrist and a small bronze bell tied around her waist, which rang with a crisp and pleasant sound as she walked lightly.

The scene of the commotion soon magically quieted down.

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

Beauty!

Wu Jun stood next to him and couldn't help but shake his head, this girl actually wore a peach blossom charm, it seemed that she wanted to focus everyone's attention on her.

That's right.

But today is an auction, not a beauty pageant.

Wait for everyone to look at her, what if you don't go to see the crabs?

"Hello everyone!"

"Today is the first day of our Nishinobayashi Food Festival, I wonder if everyone has eaten well?"

......

After a long list of opening remarks, Huang Yu finally got to the point: "Then our auction item today is a hairy crab!"

"How big is this hairy crab?"

"I'm sure many people have seen our photos on the Internet!"

"But I'm going to tell you, it's grown a lot more these days!"

"Now our hairy crabs are on the field!"

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

The iron cage was covered with a black cloth, and everyone couldn't see it inside.

Professor Chen stared at the cage and felt that his lips were a little dry.

Specially flew to Xilin City, he was for this hairy crab.

"Now, look!"

Huang Yu said as he ripped off the black cloth from the cage.

"Wow!"

Everyone gasped in unison.

I saw that in the iron cage, a hairy crab at least sixty or seventy centimeters in length was lying on the cage with its teeth and claws.

This sixty or seventy centimeter refers to its torso, not including the open feet and pliers.

If you put it on flat ground and spread out two large tongs, at least two meters several!

The black-brown hard shell like steel, as well as the pair of big eyes that stood up, made everyone's eyes glow with blazing light.

"Such a big hairy crab, one person must not be able to eat it all, right?"

"It's really big, bigger than the biggest king crab I've ever seen!"

"It's a killer crab, right?"

"It's definitely a hairy crab, I know it!"

......

Click, click, click

Everyone raised their phones and slapped at the big crab!

Professor Chan felt like his breathing was about to stop.

If it weren't for the railing in front of the stage, he would have jumped on the stage and had a good look with a magnifying glass.

"Professor, can hairy crabs really grow this big?"

"Could it be a genetic mutation?"

"Or is it something else, just a lot of the same?"

"It shouldn't be possible," Professor Chen said, shaking his head, "this is indeed a Chinese velvet crab." I knew it was really that big, so I went straight to the organizer. ”

"Shall we buy it now?"

Professor Chen said firmly: "You have to buy it!"

......

"Everyone, please pay attention!" Huang Yu said when everyone had seen enough of the crab and turned their eyes to her, "The starting price of this hairy crab is 1,000 yuan, and the price increase is at least 100 yuan each time, and now you can bid!"

Before her words fell, a middle-aged man shouted: "I'm out of three thousand!"

"Three thousand five!"

"Four thousand!"

"Eight thousand!"

......

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

However, there are not many local tyrants who come to the scene today, and the local tyrants disdain to patronize this kind of food festival, so when the price reaches 50,000 yuan, the enthusiasm for raising the price begins to diminish.

"Fifty-one thousand!"

The middle-aged man who asked for the price at the beginning insisted until the end.

Just when he thought he was winning, Professor Chen finally made a move.

"Fifty-five thousand!"

"Wow, who is this!"

"More than 50,000 yuan to buy a hairy crab, how rich is that?"

......

In the midst of the discussion, everyone looked at 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, and there was a hint of embarrassment in his eyes.

This is what he is good at, and since he ate a small bowl of crab roe at Wangshan Fish Village last time, he has never forgotten it.

It's a pity that the hairy crabs in Wangshan Fish Village are not available every day, and recently they can't see a single crab leg.

He thought that through today's auction, he would be able to get a whole hairy crab, but he made another trip to bite the gold halfway.

If you add a little more, maybe the old man will give up?

"Fifty-eight thousand!"

"Sixty thousand!"

Professor Chen's counterattack was direct and powerful, and the middle-aged man shook his head and was immediately defeated.

"60,000 yuan, is there a higher bid?"

Huang Yuqiao smiled and glanced around the audience, feeling faintly disappointed.

In her expectation, this hairy crab can be fried to at least 100,000 yuan, but unfortunately 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 to let "Nursery" appear.

Wu Jun shook his head directly.

This girl is a ghost and elf, and she has too many ideas.

The auction of hairy crabs does have the meaning of hype, but it is good to stop in moderation, and in the end, it is necessary to let the buyers eat it, after all, this is a food festival, and the theme is food.

Can you only see it, but you can't eat it, so can it be called food?

Huang Zhen smiled a little regretfully: "Congratulations to this old gentleman, this hairy crab is yours now!"

Professor Chen, despite his old age and physical age, jumped over the railing and jumped onto the stage with the help of his students.

He first went to the iron cage and looked at the crab again and again, and then came to Huang Zhen's side.

"Sir, I would like to ask you, what do you feel now?"

"Hehe, then I'll just say a few words. ”

Seeing Professor Chen take the microphone, several students in the audience couldn't help but cry out in their hearts.

Professors are good at everything, but when it comes to academic issues, they are bound to talk endlessly, comparable to the president's speech at the school meeting every Monday.

Sure enough, Professor Chen has been briefly talking about the origin of hairy crabs until before the liberation, everyone had no food to eat, and they could only rely on eating hairy crabs to satisfy their hunger, and then talked about hairy crabs being transported to Europe and then flooded, and finally talked about dozens of hairy crabs a pound now......

Huang Yu next to him heard several black lines on his face, and the onlookers in the audience were almost astigmatized.

"Old sir," Huang Yu said a little embarrassed, "almost, your crab is ready." ”

"Oh, that's it for now," Professor Chen looked back and saw that the iron cage was gone, "Where's my crab?"

"Right away. ”

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

Professor Chen was stunned, what is this for?

Is there still a live signing ceremony?

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

"Sir, please be seated. Then he shouted backstage, "It's time to serve!"

Serving?

Professor Chen almost fell off his chair, didn't he sign, what else did he serve?

Don't......

It's impossible, Professor Chen feels like his brain is about to explode, did they boil my baby crab?

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

"The first dish is steamed crab roe!"

Steamed...... Crab?

I saw that in the small bowl in front of me, it was really half a bowl of delicious crab roe with yellow, orange and orange.

Professor Chen's heart is not good, it is really steaming!

"I ...... My crab ......"

Another waiter was holding a large plate with a section of orange-red crab legs that had been cut off at the joints and the thick crust neatly cut in half, revealing the sparkling flesh inside.

"The second dish is fried crab legs!"

Also fried......

Professor Chen felt that his heart had been cut twice by a knife, and he was so painful that he even stopped breathing: "You...... How can you ......"

The third course is a slice of white meat larger than a palm, served with emerald green Celestial Cucumber and topped with tempting salad dressing.

"The third course, cucumber salad!"

It was also served cold......

"I ...... I want to live!" Professor Chen finally gasped, and his lips trembled a little, "Live, I want to live!"

Huang Zhen replied with a smile: "Sir, crabs can't be made for sashimi, because there are a lot of bacteria, and they must be cooked before they can be eaten." ”

Professor Chen almost spurted out a mouthful of blood: "You didn't understand, I'm going to take it back!"

"Don't worry, old man," Huang Yu said, "If you want to pack, we will give you a quick freeze right away!"

Professor Chen only felt a pain in his chest and a black eye.

"Professor, what's wrong with you?"

"Hurry up and get the medicine!"

"Boiling water, no, lukewarm water!"

......

Seven or eight students were in a hurry, rubbing their chests and pouring water and medicine, but Professor Chen still couldn't slow down.

Wu Jun frowned when he looked at it, was this old man too excited?

It wouldn't be good if something happened here.

So he hurriedly jumped on the stage, unscrewed the mineral water bottle he was carrying, poured out a little water from the Lingquan Well, and asked Professor Chen's students to drink it for him.

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

"My Crab ......"

"Professor, the crabs are here, and we haven't eaten them yet. ”

Professor Chan almost lost his breath again.

"I'm not going to eat it, I'm going to take it back and study it!"

Wu Jun understood, it turned out to be a professor who wanted to do research.

"Old man, if you want to live, you should have said it earlier," Huang Yu said, "We are a food festival, and the biggest attraction of holding an auction is to do it well on the spot and taste the delicious food on the spot, which is also clearly written in the promotional notice." And you didn't say you were going to bring it back, so we cooked it directly. ”

Professor Chen said in his heart, where can I go to see any notices, I just care about watching crabs.

As for what you didn't say at the time, didn't you let me speak?

I just said a few words, and the crabs were cooked!

I already knew what kind of speech I was going to make!

Looking at the crabs already on the table, Professor Chen's tears were about to come out.

He endured his heartache and asked Huang Zhen: "Do you still have such crabs?"

"Yes," Huang replied with a smile, "but it will be tomorrow." ”

"It's good to have more, it's good to have more!" Professor Chen breathed a long sigh of relief, "Since there is still a living one, then it's useless to bring this back!"

"Crabs, the fresher the better, and quick-freezing will also affect its deliciousness, and it is easy to breed bacteria.

"So let's eat it!"

"Thank you, Professor Chen!"

"Professor Chen is amazing!"

"Well, I've left the shell and I'll be able to make a specimen when I go back. ”
