Clumsy Beast, Keep Your Paws Off novel Chapter 847

Chapter 847: Chapter 847: The Salt Merchants of the East Sea

Over the next several days, Rao proved to be an exceptionally good worker. He took his new duties seriously, watering the fields every morning, meticulously pulling weeds, and keeping a watchful eye on the wooden fences.

Even though a few of the larger, arrogant beastmen occasionally threw dismissive glances or made snide remarks about his tiny size, Rao was not demotivated in the slightest.

Why would he care about a few silly looks? He was getting a massive amount of free, delicious food for his pregnant wives!

Besides, no one actually dared to cause real trouble for him. Everyone knew he had been personally hired by Su Qinglan herself.

In Dragon Beast City, Su Qinglan’s status was practically akin to that of the City Lord. Crossing her or messing with her worker was something no sane beastman would dare to do.

Everything was running smoothly and peacefully until one afternoon, when a large, bustling convoy arrived at the main gates of Dragon Beast City.

It was the trade delegation from the East Sea...the tribe belonging to Lan Yue’s second beast husband!

They had returned bearing an enormous shipment of salt to trade.

Upon hearing the news, Su Qinglan, accompanied by her beast husbands, the City Lord, and several city elders, immediately went out to welcome them.

Tang Wu’s younger brother was also among the arriving group. The moment he stepped into the city and heard from the guards that his sister-in-law and brother had recently welcomed a tiny fry, his eyes went wide.

He immediately dropped his heavy baggage, abandoned all his trading duties without a second thought, and bolted full-speed towards Tang Wu’s house just to get a glimpse of his new nephew!

Su Qinglan watched his vanishing, excited figure, and a sudden wave of melancholy washed over her.

They are already here...

That meant Lan Yue and her family would be leaving soon, right? After all, the day of their departure had finally arrived.

Su Qinglan softly closed her eyes, pushing the rising sadness back down into her heart.

Deep down, she knew it was inevitable. They couldn’t stay forever. Besides, if she ever missed her little sister, she could simply travel to visit them.

Han Jue, standing right besides her, caught the subtle flicker of sadness in her eyes. Understanding her thoughts instantly, he reached out, gently squeezing her hand in quiet comfort.

"Let’s go check the salt," he murmured softly, nudging her attention back to the bustling crowd.

Su Qinglan nodded, forcing a bright smile back onto her face as they walked over. There were several familiar, friendly faces in the sea tribe’s convoy, and they exchanged warm greetings and cheerful small talk.

However, when Su Qinglan finally turned her gaze towards the actual goods they had brought, her lips twitched violently.

It was so much salt.

Stacked in massive, neat rows were nearly five hundred heavy bags of refined white salt!

Su Qinglan stared at the towering mountain of sacks, completely stunned. Just how much salt had her method produced over the months?!

The sea tribe’s elder warrior, a burly man with a thick sea-salty beard, scratched his chin and grinned widely at her.

Before the sea beastman could savour her praise, an icy glare pierced right through him. 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝚠𝕖𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝕖𝚕.𝚌𝗼𝗺
