Chapter 1424 Ending (1/2)

Snake hunting was not like the competition they held just now. Previously they had used expert ways to compete. Typically, one would require tools to hunt snakes. Everyone seemed to be fully armed, and they were unafraid of the snake biting them.

After some hassle, the venomous snakes that had escaped were all caught. Li Du and Brother Wolf caught those snakes that had slithered away to the corridor. Griffin himself, along with some of his people, brought back the snakes from the pool.

The snake-catching equipment included thick clothes, pants, and gloves. Wearing that on such a hot day, after working, they were all hot and sweaty.

The cage door was closed and Griffin was the last to come out. He tallied up his losses and did not wear a good expression on his face.

Singer wanted to say something but realized that he was speechless. He could only squat there, dejected and humiliated.

Li Du wiped his perspiration and said, ”You guys will be busy. I won't stay here and get in your way, let's meet again next time.”

Griffin said, ”Thank you for your help just now. Give me a sec, I'll write you a check.”

Li Du waved his hands. ”No need for that. You can go clear up your mess, I did not come here to win money from you.”

Hearing that, Griffin froze for a second and then said, ”Oh right, why did you come? I still don't know why you're here to look for me.”

The two parties had walked right into conflict when they met. In the end, Li Du had yet to talk about his reason for being there in the first place. That was quite comical.

Li Du said, ”I had initially come here to hire you. I found a native tribe in the Blue Ridge of the Appalachian Mountains and traded with them. The tribe has a business catching wild vipers to collect serum, venom, and snakeskin. I want to find someone to be in charge of that.”

Griffin said, ”You're not here to sell me serum? D*mn it, I mistook you!”

He added, ”Initially when you said that you wanted to work with me, I thought that you wanted to buy snakes. Then, you brought out your serums. Hence, I thought that you were trying to promote those. The two possibilities were vastly different. In one, I would be able to make money from you, and in the other, you would make money from me. Hence, I treated you accordingly.”

Li Du did not know what to say. That dude was quite simple-minded.

After understanding the reason that Li Du was there, Griffin was tempted. He asked Li Du, ”If we can work together, how would that be?”

Li Du said, ”You can help to inspect the quality of the antidote and serum and then set the price. You can be considered a consultant. Every time you go over to the mountains, I will take care of the travel and equipment and pay you a consulting fee of between three and five thousand dollars depending on the workload.”

Griffin rubbed his hands and said, ”Why didn't you say so earlier? I'm willing to work with you. I will be your consultant.”

Li Du remarked, ”I did try, but you gave me no chance to.”

Awkwardly, Griffin said, ”Sorry, sorry, my bad. How about this, I will act in the capacity of your consultant and will not take any fees for the first two missions. We can call it a trial period.”

Li Du's expression softened. This dude is pretty decent. However, Griffin did not lose out by his generous offer either. Based on the bet of earlier, Griffin had lost one hundred thousand to Li Du. Li Du had not pursued the payment, and now that Griffin was supposedly doing him a favor, he hoped that Li Du would forget about the debt for good.

A few introductory sentences would have done the job. However, in the end, despite everything, the issue was settled anyway. In between, some trouble arose and it was Griffin's side who had got themselves into that plight.

The two parties exchanged contact details and Li Du passed the contract that he had prepared for Griffin to sign. With that, the two parties entered into a partnership.Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click for visiting.
