Chapter 781 selling the meat

Su Wan brought the snake to the kitchen with her and asked her eldest uncle to chop it all up, she couldn't use all the snake meat which was why she turned to Lin Rui and asked him to bring the innkeeper of the inn where they were staying. Lin Rui seemed to know what Su Wan was thinking and immediately went to look for the innkeeper, he did not say a single word and swiftly followed the order which was given to him by his wife.

The innkeeper was preparing to sleep in his small room but when he heard that the family that had booked the entire inn wanted him to come out and see them, he shivered. Goodness, what else did they want now? He thought in his head.

Did those mighty goddesses want to ask for money back? Were they dissatisfied with something?

The innkeeper was thinking of numerous possibilities and by the time he was done thinking about every last one of the possibilities, he realised that he was going to fight with the Su family if they were to ask for money back! There was a limit to their tyranny and even if the old goddess asked him to pay the money back because she was dissatisfied with something, he was going to put his foot down!

With a lot of prep talk, the innkeeper was able to summon his courage but as soon as he walked inside the kitchen where he was asked to come, he saw the tall and heroic man chop the head of a python which was more than a hundred metres long into half causing blood and the head of the python to roll on the ground.

When the innkeeper saw such a terrifying sight, he let out an eep and then went back outside, he did not dare to put his foot down, what money? What benefit? He will let this family stay in his inn for free!

" You are here?" Su Wan was sitting on the chair which was in front of the stove watching the innkeeper who was scared stiff like he had transformed into a stone statue as she said in a calm voice, " There is nothing to worry about, we are not going to make things difficult for you yet." As she spoke Lin Chen who was in charge of collecting the snake's skin and gallbladder looked up with his hands covered in blood.

The innkeeper trembled all over but he still pulled his lips up in a smile and then said to Su Wan, " Miss ….Miss Su? What do you want? Is there anything that you need this old man to do?"

" There is indeed that I need you to do something for me," Su Wan's lips curled up when she saw that the innkeeper was scared of her mountain-like husband and tall uncle but she did not say anything, simply enjoyed the sight of fear on the face of the innkeeper.

She had seen the inn from inside and outside, one could see that the innkeeper had a lot of grains stocked up, she thought that the man was simply a hoarder and nothing else but then she met with the help who worked in the kitchen and told her that the innkeeper's brother in law was the owner of the only shop which sold grains in this town.

Su Wan of course understood what the help was saying, this innkeeper was someone who liked to bully the weak and feared the strong, he knew that he could bully the town's people because they did not have the same contacts as him, which was why he bought grains at price which was half compared to the price of the market.

The brother-in-law of the innkeeper could not go against this brother-in-law of his since his sister was married to him, he could only sell the grains at a price which was so low that he could not even make the smallest gain which was why he then sold the grains to the town's people at double the price.

This innkeeper and his brother-in-law sort of controlled the entire town which was why Su Wan was inclined on teaching a lesson to this man.

" I want you to go outside and announce that your help has hunted a snake and you want to sell the snake meat as for the snake's skin and gallbladder just call the doctor of this town to buy," said Su Wan, she could have brought this snake meat with her but no matter how carefully she kept it, she will not be able to preserve this meat for a long time, what was more she had no desire to keep this meat with her either, in case it went bad where will she dispose of more than two thousand kilograms of meat? It will be twice as troublesome.

When the innkeeper saw that Su Wan wanted to sell the snake's meat, his eyes gleamed with excitement. He looked at the snake's meat and then said, " Miss, if you want to sell this snake's meat then why don't you sell it to me? I will buy it for five taels!"

Su Wan almost laughed out loud when she heard the words of the innkeeper. She tilted her head and then said in a soft voice, " Mister Innkeeper, do you think I am a fool? Even a pig which weighs a few hundred kilograms is sold for more than twenty taels, this python's meat weighs more than two thousand kilograms, who are you trying to fool? This meat is either going to be given for more than thirty taels including the snake's skin and gallbladder, or else it's going to be given for free to the people of the town, do not think that you can bully us like you bully the people of this very town just because your brother in law controls the grains shop, all right?"

Though her voice was soft it was poisonous like that of a viper causing the innkeeper to turn pale with fright.
