Chapter 17: The Essence of the Ocean Saved the Cormorant, and the Grouper Made Millions

The cormorant was seriously injured, but Qi Hang had the essence of the ocean, so it was not a problem to treat it.

It was held up by Qi Hang with a weak breath, and its eyes were full of fatigue.

“It will be fine soon.”

Qi Hang took out the Heart of the Ocean, and the blue crystal shone under the sunlight.

It was only then that he noticed that there was not much essence of the ocean left in it.

This made Qi Hang’s heart ache. He did not expect that after only using it a few times, there was already not much essence of the ocean left.

Although he had earned a lot these few days, he had also used a lot.

Compared to money, Qi Hang felt that the essence of the ocean was more important.

He just did not know how to increase the efficiency of this thing’s production.

“Little White’s injuries were more serious, and its body size is also much bigger. If I give this little guy a little less… It won’t be a problem, right?”

After thinking for a while, he originally planned to give this cormorant an entire drop of essence of the ocean, but he put back more than half and used a little bit to feed the cormorant.

A faint blue light lit up, covering the most serious part of the wound.

In a short while, the broken part had already completely recovered, as if it was reborn.

The originally dispirited cormorant also flapped its wings and stood up. It blinked at Qi Hang, seeming to have some human-like incredulity.

Then, it kept rubbing its head against Qi Hang’s arm, obviously knowing who the savior was.

“Don’t you feel that you’ve become a little smarter?”

Qi Hang tried to talk to it. “If you understand me, you can fly to the ground.”

The cormorant tilted its head, obviously not understanding what the creature in front of it was trying to say.

“Alright.”

Qi Hang felt that it was true. No matter how powerful the essence of the ocean was, it was impossible for a creature to greatly increase its IQ. At most, it could strengthen its habits and specialties, making it even more powerful.

Like Little White, it could even smell the smell of the creatures in the sea, and it had even unlocked its deep-diving skill.

“Let’s find some time to test this little guy’s ability.”

Qi Hang touched the head of the cormorant. It looked furry and smooth.

Then, he patted his shoulder, indicating for the cormorant to stand on it.

The cormorant shook its head, and its two feet moved on Qi Hang’s arms bit by bit, afraid that it would scratch him.

Qi Hang could not help but chuckle and brought it to the fish market.

At the same time, he sent a message to Li Yizheng to ask him about the situation there.

Not long after, the two of them met up in the car.

Li Yizheng saw the cormorant on Qi Hang’s shoulder and was immediately shocked. “D*mn, brother Hang is awesome. Where did you get the osprey? And it’s so obedient?”

Having lived on the island all year round, he knew very well how suitable the osprey was for fishing.

Not only was it extremely fast, but it was also good at diving. Its wings had even evolved to be able to help it paddle.

No matter how agile the prey was, it was very difficult to escape from them. Even in a dark and muddy environment, it could rely on its keen sense of hearing to hunt its prey.

After that, it would use the sharp beak of a bird with a hook to firmly lock down the prey. It would never miss its target, and it would definitely bring benefits to its owner.

“I just bought it. I spent 8,000 yuan.” Qi Hang opened his palm and the cormorant immediately jumped up.

“What a loss. This price is a little too high.” Li Yizheng smacked his lips and stretched out his hand to touch it. In the end, the cormorant avoided him. His face could not help but darken, “hey! You little fellow, do you know that your master is my brother? Believe it or not, I will ask him to give you to me and beat you up every day!”

Qi Hang, who was standing at the side, laughed out loud. Under the pitiful gaze of the little guy, he stretched out his hand and handed it over, allowing Li Yizheng to do whatever he wanted.

“It’s a little high, but he’s the only one selling it. There’s no other way around it.”

“That’s true. This little guy is famous for being an expert fisherman. Not many people on our island have him.”

Li Yizheng was satisfied and said, “I’ll help you look after the things that you want to change at home. They’re all the best goods that you can buy. The price will be a little more expensive. No problem, right?”

“Money is not a problem. Money is meant to be enjoyed. There’s no point in saving it.” Qi Hang did not mind.

“Ah, the boss is so generous!”

“Boss is awesome!”

“Boss is amazing!”

Li Yizheng was not stingy with his compliments. He was very happy in his heart.

He had a little profit!

People were in high spirits when it came to happy events. Earning money was the greatest happy event. Naturally, he was happy!

At this moment, Qi Hang’s phone rang. It was Chen Fanxing’s call.

“Congratulations, Mr. Qi.” It could be heard that Chen Fanxing was in a good mood.

Qi Hang also smiled and replied, “what’s the matter, President Chen? What’s there to take care of?”

“Your batch of fish has been sold. Guess how much money you’ll get?”

“1.5 million?” Qi Hang casually reported a figure. After all, the frozen payment was 1 million. If it was lower than this price, Chen Fanxing would not be so happy.

“More than that. You can guess again.” Chen Fanxing was acting a little mischievous at this moment.

Qi Hang shook his head lightly. “I won’t guess anymore. With President Chen’s sales methods, it’s definitely a price that I’ll never guess in my entire life.”

Li Yizheng immediately cast an admiring gaze. If he was not driving, he really wanted to give two thumbs up.

He would not be able to come up with such a method of seducing a girl that took advantage of the situation even if he racked his brains.

A burst of silver bell-like laughter came from Chen Fanxing’s side. It was obvious that she was amused by Qi Hang.

After a short while, she replied, “Alright, alright, I won’t tease you anymore. I just got the stone grouper that was transported here and I already sold 40% of it. Just this portion alone has already exceeded the share of the frozen payment.”

“Doesn’t that mean that the fish can be sold for several million?” Qi Hang could not help but raise his eyebrows. If that was the case, then the essence of the ocean that he had lost could still be considered to be somewhat valuable.

“It’s hard to say. Most of the things that were sold were of better quality and rarer types. However, I can guarantee that I will still be able to give you at least 500,000 to 600,000 yuan of the proceeds in the future.”

“Thank you, President Chen.”

“What are you thanking me for? You’re so polite.”

“After all, I still have to rely on President Chen to take care of me in the future. It’s only right to be polite.”

“Since you still have to rely on me in the future, why are you still calling me President Chen?”Chen Fanxing smiled and said, “aren’t you being a little too polite?”

“Greetings, Lord Xing.”

“Who are you paying respect to!” Chen Fanxing chuckled. “You’re calling me old.”

“Sister Xing?”

“That won’t do either. I’m not a big sister.”

“Then what should I call you?”

“Think about it yourself. You don’t need others to remind you of this!”

Qi Hang could not help but hold his forehead. It turned out that even a big sister could be arrogant sometimes.
