Su Wan turned to look at the two men who stood next to Yan Zhao, her eyes swiftly nced at Pei Huai as the man was in charge of the financial department and nothing more but Lu Huo was different. He was not only the head of the development department, he had one more identity and that was the son-inw of the Lai family.


    " Good day, Master Pei, Master Lu," Su Wan greeted them with a polite voice.


    Pei Huai squinted his eyes and then looked at Su Wan whose attitude surprised him. He spoke in a low tone," I heard from Master Yan that you intend to build a snack street in the city and use it to pay the taxes that have been pressed on us?"


    " Thats the initial n," Su Wan nodded she did not tell them about the aquarium and hotel for the time being as Lin Rui was still writing the books and they were far from getting finished and the artisans were not even here. Even if she was to tell them now, they would only make fun of her.


    " These are the fouryout ns that we came up with, my husband is a chef and he owns a restaurant in Dong Tong town. ording to him, the secondyout would be perfect from the cooking point of view but if you have something to add then you can tell me and I will the necessary changes."


    Though the pressure oozed by Pei Huai was too strong, Su Wan''s psychology was rather strong. She was someone who even faced her husband cheating on her and acted as if she did not know anything pretending till the end that everything was fine before ruining the reputation of the two and sending them to a dead end.


    Not many women could do it but she could which meant that she was no normal woman who cried at the smallest thing.


    Su Wan then took out the notes that she had prepared and started to exin everything to the officials who were standing in the office.


    She wrote everything from how to open the street, whom to target, and where to buy materials at cheap prices including the point that she would be focusing on the seafood sold by the city and even calcted the entire costs as well as the usible revenue that could be used to pay the taxes.


    Su Wan even went as far as to count on everything else that could create trouble for them.


    Though it was quiteplicated the officials were all schrs once and could understand that the n was certainly reliable.


    Pei Huan''s eyes shed with surprise when he heard that there was a woman magistrate he thought that the Emperor seemed to have gone crazy and broke the pot as they did not pay the taxes but now that he could see the skills presented by this woman, he had to admit that she had the skills. If not for the fact that she was awoman, she would have made a huge name for herself in the capital.


    Her ideas were refreshing and the drawings were easy to understand.


    " But how are you going to process the seafood?" Lu Huo who was silent till now opened his mouth and looked at Su Wan with a calm expression. " The food taken out from the sea is not bearable to eat, will anyone buy it?"


    His questions caused many officials to nod and agree. The seafood that the fishermen caught was indeed not good enough to eat, it tasted so bad and fishy that they wanted to spit it out the second they took a bite from it.


    " Thats because they don''t know how to clean it," Su Wan who finished exining how the snack street could help to drive the local economy and be one of the major pirs of Big Ocean City turned to look at Lu Huo.


    Though he was from the Lu family she did not see any sort of malice from him and thus, she was rather polite while answering him as well.


    " Are you saying that you know how to clean it?" Lu Huo asked, his eyes widening as he looked at Su Wan who nodded in response.


    " Well, of course," Su Wan replied. Her voice was calm without any fluctuations. " I was given the responsibility of this city long before thest county magistrate left and the Emperor sent a lot of seafood for me to test thus I and my husband experimented a lot beforeing up with the idea of how to deal with various seafood."


    Lu Huo frowned and then he asked, " And what ideas do you have for farming?"


    " I don''t have muchnd to start with the farming ns for the time being," Su Wan smiled as she reminded Lu Huo who was holding most of thend in their hands.


    Lu Huo flushed when he heard Su Wan''s remark but thetter did not intend to humiliate him either thus she straightforwardly said, " With theck of opennds, I can only try to cultivate the wastnds and hope that they would turn into fertilends, if they don''t then I could onlye with another way to deal with the matter of farming."


    " But what if themoners want to farm?" Pei Huan could not help but ask, he did not think that the people of the city would want to work in a street shop as they have never done anything like that before.


    " There is a first for everything anyway who don''t take the risk then they don''t get the opportunity to make a change," stated Su Wan quietly. " In times of need, only those who know when to move along with the changing times can survive."


    " The snack street, Master Yan said that you would be the owner, is it true?" Lu Huo asked though he was not the head of the financial department. He could not help but ask.


    " Of course, if the government pays the money, I am willing to share but since the government cannot pay… I will be the owner as I am the one who will be paying for everything," replied Su Wan.


    " Why not donate?" An envious voice came from behind.
