Hearing this, Jiang Chuyue's eyes lit up. Manager Wei knew something was up. "Bear paws are precious, so we must not delay. But it's not safe for you to carry so much silver with you, sister Jiang. Why don't you let Anping go with you?"

Shopkeeper Wei had thought carefully, but he never expected that Jiang Chuyue would take out the bear's paw by simply reaching into the backpack.

She had not expected to sell it now. Bear paws are indeed precious, but they require people who know their value and are willing to spend money to buy them. Seeing that the Luo family was willing to pay such a large sum of money, Jiang Chuyue naturally would not refuse.

Facing the shocked look on Shopkeeper Wei's face, Jiang Chuyue smiled and explained, "I originally wanted to send it to the restaurant to see if it could be sold."

"It's a shame to send such a good-looking bear paw to the restaurant. It won't sell for a good price." Shopkeeper Wei took the bear paw and after examining it carefully, he confirmed that it came from a brown bear, and an adolescent one at that.

"The seven thousand taels of bear paw are all yours. I'm just running errands for you, so I won't charge you any money." Having already made three thousand taels without any investment, Manager Wei was not greedy.

Jiang Chuyue's eyes lit up, "In that case, I'll have to trouble Shopkeeper Wei to make this special trip for me."

Seeing Shopkeeper Wei simply clean the bear paw and put it in the box and then hurried out, Jiang Chuyue turned around and went to the market. Although Shopkeeper Wei did not intend to make money from the bear paw, after all, he had troubled her to make the trip, so she might as well prepare it as a gift.

But what she didn't expect was that before Jiang Chuyue had enough of her stroll, Anping from Samadhi came hurriedly looking for her.

"Miss Jiang, our boss is looking for you everywhere anxiously." An Ping was sweating profusely.

"Are you in a hurry to find me?" Jiang Chuyue frowned, feeling that the matter might not be simple, "But the bear paws have been sold?" Jiang Chuyue felt a little uneasy as she didn't understand the situation at all.

"I don't know about this. The shopkeeper just said he has something urgent to discuss with you."

Seeing that what Anping said was true, Jiang Chuyue did not make things difficult for him and readily followed Anping back to Samadhi. Before he even stepped in, Shopkeeper Wei came out with an anxious look on his face.

"The Luo family is affectionate, so Miss Jiang will have to go with me." After Manager Wei said this, he motioned for Jiang Chuyue to get on the carriage without waiting for Jiang Chuyue's reaction.

Jiang Chuyue looked at Shopkeeper Wei strangely. Before she could speak, Shopkeeper Wei spoke first, "I'll tell Miss Jiang if there's anything when we get on the bus."

After hearing this, although Jiang Chuyue felt uneasy, she still got on the carriage one after another with Manager Wei.

"Gee--" The coachman cracked his whip and the carriage went to the Luo family.

Jiang Chuyue looked up at Shopkeeper Wei who was sitting opposite her. Shopkeeper Wei's anxious expression was not fake. "Shopkeeper Wei, what happened? Why are you so anxious? Where are we going now?"

She really had too many doubts. She had no idea where the carriage was going, who it was going to meet, and why.

If she hadn't had some trust in Manager Wei, she shouldn't have gotten on the carriage so blindly.

"Mrs. Luo, the head of the Luo family, wants to see you because of the bear paw."

"Bear paw?" Jiang Chuyue's mind raced, "Are they dissatisfied with the bear paw?" If they are dissatisfied, then at most they can give up the business, but it won't make her suffer, right?

"No, Madam Luo is very satisfied with Xiong Zhang, but I really don't know why she wants to see you, Jiang Meizi. They urged me so much that I could only let Anping and the others look for you everywhere."

Manager Wei wiped the thin layer of sweat from his forehead caused by anxiety.

Jiang Chuyue took in all of Shopkeeper Wei's reactions and was sure that Shopkeeper Wei had not lied to her, nor was there any need to lie to her. However, there was something fishy about the Luo family.

Jiang Chuyue suppressed all her thoughts and knew that here, she had no power or influence and had no hope, nor any ability to fight against the Luo family.

All she could do was to play dumb and confused even if the Luo family made trouble.

But since the Luo family has accepted her bear gall, they won't just fall out with her, right?

Jiang Chuyue, who is always prepared for the worst, has already figured out how to respond if the Luo family really attacks her.

But she never expected that after seeing Madam Luo and several young masters and young ladies standing in the hall, the first thing Madam Luo said was, "The brown bear is very strong. I wonder how Miss Jiang killed it?"

“It’s not my daughter’s work alone. It was thanks to the help of three people in my family who set up a trap in advance and then used Ma Fei San to stun the brown bear. Only then was I able to kill it by chance.” Jiang Chuyue answered very appropriately. It was obviously impossible for one person to kill a brown bear. Jiang Chuyue only managed to take down the brown bear with the help of sophisticated modern equipment.

"I see." Mrs. Luo smiled and nodded.

Young Master Luo on the side suddenly came closer and said, "It's not easy for three or four people to kill a brown bear. You know, this brown bear is not easy to mess with." What he said sounded a little strange.

Jiang Chuyue seized the loophole in his words and asked, "Why did Master Luo say that?"

Young Master Luo raised his head and smiled, "Of course the brown bear escaped from our hands. We originally bought it from somewhere else to extract its gallbladder, but we didn't expect it to escape halfway. We didn't expect that the brown bear would end up in Miss Jiang's hands. So, it seems that we have some fate, right?"

Young Master Luo is young, but he is a playboy by nature.

Seeing him like this, Mrs. Luo coughed lightly, and Jiang Chuyue lowered her head at the right time, "How can I be destined to be with Young Master Luo? It must be that the brown bear is destined to be with the Luo family, and after going around in circles, it still returns to the Luo family."

This statement not only cleared her relationship with the Luo family, but also did not put herself in a too low position, and appropriately expressed her meaning to Mrs. Luo.

"My youngest son never speaks without thinking. Miss Jiang, please don't take it to heart." Mrs. Luo had not originally planned to meet Jiang Chuyue. For her, getting the bear gall and bear paw was enough.

As for who sent it or how it was killed, she was not curious at all.

If Luo Ding had not insisted on meeting the person who sold bear gall and bear paws, Jiang Chuyue would not have had to make such a trip.

"It's getting late. I think Miss Jiang and Manager Wei are still busy, so I won't keep you here." Mrs. Luo looked down on women as shallow as Jiang Chuyue.

The superficial politeness and dignity are just her upbringing.

Young Master Luo was very interested. "Come to think of it, I'm curious, where is Miss Jiang from? And where did you hunt this brown bear?"

"Wanshan Village. A brown bear was hunted in a place on the back mountain of Wanshan Village."

Mrs. Luo stood up and froze for a moment, then suddenly turned her head and looked over. "Are you from Wanshan Village?"

The sudden opening of the mouth, coupled with Mrs. Luo's somewhat unusual reaction, made Young Master Luo realize that something was wrong.
