Chapter 970: Deal with the Jacoba Noble

Anyway, as depressed as they were to lose the precious thing, they suddenly found out that there was still some stock hidden and taken by the Lord! The nobles who got a taste naturally wanted to buy the rest of them. 

But… the Lord sold it for a really high amount! There was even a bidding! Sadly, he was not as rich as the other nobles so he lost. 

Now, he must ration what he had, but he couldn't bear to stop! What if it spoiled? What if some clumsy slave broke the bottle? Wouldn't he die of regret then? 

This was the self-righteous thought ongoing in Urkin's mind when his personal maids informed him that the meat-buying slave had finally returned… and there was no meat on hand.

"WHAT!?" He yelled, slapping the armrest of his wooden chair. "Get him in here right now!!" 

The maid looked reluctant but continued to speak before heading out. "He also bought someone with him," she said. "The visitor says he… has more sauce." 

"...huh?"
