Chapter 95 You can’t catch a wolf without sacrificing a child
"What's going on?"
Mrs. Song's eyes were full of worry, and the sick beauty looked haggard.
Song Jiuli wrinkled her little face, facing everyone's curious gazes, and then explained depressedly.
"Last night, the bunk bed next door was robbed. The people who lost their belongings were a family of three. That was their only food."
As she spoke of the latter part, Song Jiuli's eyes were filled with tears. After being exiled, she became more aware of the cruelty of this world.
I also gradually realized that the so-called love actually has no effect.
"What does the officer say?"
Mrs. Song frowned, sighed softly, and began to worry about the wild boar meat in their family.
When there is really nothing, I worry about having nothing to eat, and sometimes I worry about being missed by others.
"The official probably didn't want to get involved in this matter too much, so he just warned everyone."
Song Jiuli's words made Jiang Wan stunned. It seemed that Ren Bang didn't care about these things. He was probably still worried about the journey.
"How can this be possible?"
Song Jiuchi said anxiously, "If they don't care, the thief will become even more arrogant next time."
Jiang Wan and Song Jiuyuan looked at each other, both of them had vigilance in their eyes, and glanced at some people in the room who were eyeing them covetously.
Jiang Wan approached Song Jiuyuan and asked quietly, "Song Jiuyuan, what do you think?"
"Kill the chicken to scare the monkey!"
Song Jiuyuan's voice was not loud, but there was a hint of coldness in his words. Jiang Wan smiled.
"It's just like what I thought. But before that, I want to process some of the wild boar meat first. What do you think?"
She has plenty of things in her space, but she doesn't want to be disturbed by the wild boar meat.
"You were the one who hunted the wild boar. I have no objection."
Song Jiuyuan was a good point in this respect, he never interfered with her decisions. Jiang Wan looked at Madam Song and others.
Even though they were reluctant, no one had any objections, because they knew Jiang Wan must have her own considerations.
"Then I'll go out for a walk."
Jiang Wan didn't want to be blamed for doing good things like Wen Ruyu did. Who wouldn't say that Wen Ruyu was being hypocritical at this moment?
When she left the bunk bed, she could still hear someone crying in the next room, probably the family of three who had been robbed.
When she arrived at the lobby, Jiang Wan could vaguely hear many people complaining.
"Then can't Master Wen give us some more food?"
"Okay, whether they send it or not is their business, we can't push it any further."
"I don't mean to be mean, but I'm hungry."
“…”
Jiang Wan twitched her lips speechlessly, and when she raised her eyes, she saw Wen Ruyu coming down from upstairs.
His expression was stiff, and he had obviously heard those people's complaints. When he saw Jiang Wan, he quickly concealed the coldness in his eyes.
"Madam Song."
Jiang Wan, who was still hesitating, suddenly had her eyes brightened. It was like someone gave her a pillow when she was sleepy. She rarely smiled at Wen Ruyu.
"Master Wen, I have something I want to talk to you about."
"sure."
Wen Ruyu controlled his facial expression with dignity. Looking at the smile on Jiang Wan's face, he felt proud.
It seems that his charm has not diminished. Madam Song must have been very uncomfortable enduring it before.
This little thought was completely shattered when Jiang Wan expressed his intention, and he controlled his facial expression which was about to get out of control.
"Madam Song, you said you wanted to sell me wild boar meat?"
"yes."
Jiang Wan blinked her big eyes innocently, "I know you are a good person, but a kind-hearted person can't just do half of the good things.
I just happen to have some wild boar meat, so it's just right to sell it to you, isn't it?"
Wen Ruyu: ...
He tried his best to control his almost twisted heart and forced a smile on his face.
"What you said makes some sense, but..."
"I don't think Master Wen wants to buy it very much."
Jiang Wan sighed, "Forget it then. It just so happened that Mr. Chu was asking me about the wild boar a few days ago.
In this case, it is the same to sell it to them. Even if the deal fails, the friendship still exists. Master Wen does not need to feel any psychological burden. "
Jiang Wan was about to go upstairs when she finished speaking. Wen Ruyu said hurriedly, "Wait a minute!"
Afraid that Jiang Wan had really left, Wen Ruyu walked up to Jiang Wan.
"Mrs. Song is right. I'll buy this wild boar meat!"
This was a great opportunity to get close to her, and Wen Ruyu didn't want to miss it.
"Master Wen is very generous."
Jiang Wan's eyes curved, "My wild boar meat is wild, and I smoked it into bacon. As for the price..."
“Don’t worry, Madam Song, the price won’t be lower than the market price.”
Wen Ruyu felt a pang of pain when he thought of the stolen Black Wind Village, but he was unwilling to sacrifice the child, so he went for it!
"I have about 250 kilograms of meat. Since Master Wen is so open-minded, please name a price."
Jiang Wan narrowed her eyes. If sold according to the ancient prices, this amount of silver would not be as expensive as a jade screen in the warehouse of Heifeng Village.
So when she sells it later, she plans to secretly hide 100 kilograms of it into the space, and then quietly take some out to eat later.
And two hundred and fifty, she likes this number very much.
"Is this enough?"
Wen Ruyu took out fifty taels of silver from his sleeve, with an embarrassed look on his face. He had never purchased food before, so naturally he didn't know the prices.
Jiang Wan took the banknote from his hand and smiled, "That's enough. I'll bring the meat to you later."
But since those people are blaming you so much, I think you should wait a while before cooking for them.
Give hungry people something to eat and they will be more grateful.”
"Yeah?"
Wen Ruyu raised her eyebrows with doubt in her eyes. Is she the same?
"Of course."
Jiang Wan spoke in a firm tone, agreed on a delivery time with Wen Ruyu, and then returned to the big bunk bed.
Then she would carry out some wild boar meat in a backpack from time to time, and after leaving the big bunk bed, she would store them all in the space.
At night, Jiang Wan came to the corner of the inn and took out all the meat when no one was around.
After a while, Wen Ruyu's men took away the wild boar meat.
In fact, she deliberately delayed it until the evening, so that even if Wen Ruyu changed her mind and wanted to cook meat, she would have to wait until tomorrow.
"You're back?"
Seeing Jiang Wan coming back, Song Jiuyuan finally put his mind at ease, even though it had been a long time since Jiang Wan came back to the dormitory.
But going in and out several times also attracted the attention of others, but Jiang Wan pretended to be unaware and took out a large bowl of steamed meat from the backpack.
"I went to the kitchen to nag the chefs several times and gave them half of the meat before they agreed to steam it for me. Come and eat it."
"Wow, sister-in-law, you are awesome."
Song Jiuli covered her mouth exaggeratedly, and Madam Song glared at her unhappily.
"Eating can't stop your mouth, eat quickly."
There were too many greedy eyes in the room, so Song Jiuli and the others didn't dare to delay and ate up all the meat in a hurry.
Song Jiuli took the initiative to wash the dishes again. Jiang Wan and Song Jiuyuan looked at each other with teasing in their eyes.
After washing up tonight, they went to bed early. It was still raining outside and there was no sign of stopping. Jiang Wan did not enter the space either.
She closed her eyes slightly. The bait had been put down. Would the fish take the bait?
