"For ease of cleaning."
Lin Chen explained the reason he had mentioned earlier once more to him. John nodded with a hint of understanding: "So, can I have someone soak the crayfish before it's delivered?"
"That's a great idea!"
Lin Chen gave him a thumbs up—the purpose of explaining was exactly this. Clearly, this fellow was quite perceptive.
The farm also acts as a supplier. Even though there's little interest in crayfish now, the situation might change once Lin Chen sets up his stall tomorrow.
If there's a surge in demand, as a supplier, it's normal to clean them in advance.
Taking the time now to learn processing techniques makes perfect sense.
Lin Chen was almost done with prepping the ingredients and was ready to heat the oil, so he let John go to the sink to learn how to process the crayfish.
The farm has limited human resources and isn't a professional supplier, so they can't handle everything, but at least make him aware, just in case.
