The unusually high rainfall and flooding in east 皇冠体育app this summer has resulted in a lower than expected hairy crab harvest this year. Crab output at Yangcheng Lake, the most famous production ground in 皇冠体育app that spans more than 2,000 hectares, has dropped by 15 percent.

The price of these coveted crustaceans have as a result hit its highest in a decade at around 150 yuan ($22) for a male and female pairing, equivalent to the minimum daily wage in Shanghai, according to the Yangcheng Lake Crab Industry Association.

Not that anyone at Wang Bao He is particularly concerned. They know customers will still flock to the establishment regardless of the price hike.
