Chapter 158: 158: You will have to pay

"Can I help you out, mister? Please stop blocking my way now. I must return this to my table before my lady starts eating."

Sui warned the owner to let her have her way, but she could tell the man was not in the mood to entertain Sui and her objective.

Instead, he purposely blocked her way to stop Sui from moving.

"Hey, girl! Do you think your companions can do what you want because they are nobles? That salt you all wasted! Who is going to pay for it? Do you know how expensive it was?"

The owner asked in an angry voice, and Sui understood his anger.

Salt was a luxury that only the upper class could afford to have.

There was no shortage of this in the Imperial Palace, but it was a different case for everywhere else in the empire.

"I am sorry for your losses, and our financial advisor will compensate them. Now, can I head out?"

Sui asked, assuring the older man that he did not have to worry.
