"Let me tell you, I ate the most delicious food in my life this afternoon."
"Really? Which island did you go to to eat alone? "
"Bullsh * t, it's on our Carapace Island."
"Who are you trying to fool? What good food can we have on our island?"
"It's a newly opened crayfish restaurant. The spicy crayfish taste like heaven after eating it. With a glass of iced beer, it's simply delightful. I'm your grandfather if I'm lying to you."
…
"Yes, it's on that street. Ayi Crayfish Restaurant. The signboard is very obvious."
"Sure, let's try it tonight."
"Oh yes, let me give you a piece of advice. Bring enough money. Don't ever think of eating without paying. That lady boss and little boss blew up a customer as a sacrifice this afternoon."
"So cruel?!"
"You're so fierce!"
…
Rumors about Ayi Crayfish Restaurant spread rapidly on Carapace Island.
No matter if it was the mysterious and delicious crayfish or the lady boss who was as beautiful as a flower but powerful and merciless, they all successfully piqued the interest of many demons.
The death of a demon was like swatting a mosquito on Carapace Island. It didn't cause much of a stir.
Five to six demons died in an alley in the morning. The people from the Ten Kings Palace came over to take a look, and because they didn't have any clues, they got someone to bury them, and the incident was over.
The powerful demons enjoyed the fruits of exploiting the bottom-level demons and lived a life of luxury.
Meanwhile, the bottom-level demons were thinking of ways to survive. Their biggest goal every month was to save enough money to buy a protective amulet, and then continue to struggle at death's door for another month. There seemed to be no end to such days. This cycle would probably only end on the day they died.
However, a piece of news that was gradually spreading on the island today brought a ray of hope and light to these bottom-level demons.
A restaurant called 'Ayi Crayfish Restaurant' was purchasing a type of large prawn called crayfish for 50 copper coins each.
This type of prawn didn't require a boat to go into the sea to catch. One only needed to search the beaches and shallow waters on Carapace Island to find plenty of them.
A fisherman caught 50 crayfish in the morning and received 2,500 copper coins from the boss.
To the bottom-level demons, this was undoubtedly a huge sum of money.
As long as they paid 10,000 copper coins, they would be able to apply for the right to stay on the peripheral islands and receive a certain amount of protection from the demons on the island. They would be able to leave the quagmire that was Carapace Island.
Therefore, many fishermen gathered at the beach of Carapace Island after the news spread in a small circle. Many of them even brought their families with them.

However, looking at those fishermen who were covered in mud and those pairs of eyes that were glowing with hope, Mag walked straight up, opened the yard's door, and said to the demons, "Please send your crayfish to me. I will buy the crayfish at the price of 50 copper coins per crayfish. I will buy as many as you have."
All the Demons revealed surprised smiles on their faces. They were originally worried that this was a lie, but they didn't expect it to be true. This boss would really buy crayfish at the price of 50 copper coins each. Moreover, there was no limit. Those who came here all caught crayfish. Some caught dozens of crayfish, while others caught three to five crayfish. All of them could be exchanged for quite a bit of money.
Under Meg's request, the demon fishermen counted the crayfish and put them into the pond one by one. Those that weren't crayfish and those that were dead were all removed by Meg. Then, he distributed the money to the fishermen according to the number of crayfish they caught.
Some of the fishermen jumped up and down in excitement after receiving the money. Most of them had happy smiles on their faces. Tucker caught more than 20 crayfish during the day and received more than 100 copper coins. He couldn't help but wipe his tears as he carried the heavy money pouch. He was getting closer and closer to the hope of leaving Carapace Island with his wife. He also planned to catch crayfish during the night to gather 10,000 copper coins as soon as possible.
The young fisherman, Kitar, counted the money and stuffed it into his pocket. He caught another 40 crayfish today and received 2,200 copper coins from Meg. In addition to the 2,500 copper coins in the morning, he almost received 5,000 copper coins today. He looked at Meg curiously, and said, "Sir, these crayfish are prickly. How did you cook them? Are they really tasty? "
The other fishermen also looked at Meg curiously. Many demons had been tricked by these crayfish today, and their hands were still numb. They really couldn't understand why this boss would spend 50 copper coins to buy these things.
"The restaurant is about to open for business. If you want to know, you can cook them and try them." Meg said with a smile as he turned on the tap and poured water into the pond. Because of the mud, this batch of crayfish had to be cleaned in an extra step.
"Alright, then I will give it a try. I have been prickled by them dozens of times today, so I will eat them to vent my anger." Kitar nodded. He was much more confident now that he had a few thousand more copper coins in his pocket.
"Sit anywhere. We will open for business at 5," Meg said with a smile. He had successfully converted another customer.
Kitar sat down at the corner of the door and looked around. His gaze landed on the number plate on the table. He widened his eyes and exclaimed, "100 copper coins for a spicy crayfish! 50 copper coins for a cup of beer! "
"100 copper coins for a crayfish!"
The fishermen who hadn't left yet were all shocked!
There were a few fishermen who were hesitating whether they should sit down and have dinner before continuing to gather seafood. However, they quickly stopped themselves from sitting down. Normally, they couldn't even bear to eat a meal that cost 10 copper coins outside. How could they eat a crayfish that cost 100 copper coins?
The fishermen didn't expect Meg to sell the crayfish at such a high price.
"Boss, you are really a good person. Let's make money together." Kitar raised his head and looked at Meg as he gave him a thumbs up.
Even if those crayfish were sold at the price of 10 copper coins, these fishermen would still catch them with the greatest enthusiasm. Meg could still sell them at 100 copper coins.
However, he bought them at the price of 50 copper coins, giving them a chance to make money quickly.
"The purchase time tomorrow is 8 o 'clock. If you still catch any crayfish, you can still send them to me," Meg said with a smile.
The demon fishermen agreed with a smile. They carried their wooden buckets and nets and left excitedly. Many of them had already made up their minds to go back and bring torches to gather seafood at night. They heard that there were more crayfish at night.
