Rotten Feast For A Greedy Uncle
Dominic Langdon, a gang boss, is about to host his birthday banquet soon. He specifically tells everyone that he wants bluefin tuna and premium abalone as the grandest dish in his banquet. That seafood comes to a total of 80 thousand dollars.
But my uncle, Steve Cutterson, gives me 800 dollars and tells me to carry out the task.
I head toward the garbage dump of the farmers' market immediately. Soon, I return with a cartload of canned sardines and crayfish. After calculating the transportation costs, it comes to a total of 800 dollars.
When the cheap-looking seafood is served, Dominic is so pissed that he flips the table on the spot.
"How dare you pocket my money! You must have a death wish!"
Steve quickly makes me the scapegoat.
"Mr. Langdon, Caleb is the one who bought the seafood! He must have embezzled your money! Caleb, you'd better grovel to Mr. Langdon and pay him back right now!"
I just show everyone the magnified version of the transfer record of 800 dollars with a stony expression.
"Take a good look, Uncle Steve. Do you really think you can afford bluefin tuna with just 800 dollars? Did Mr. Langdon give you the money purely out of charity purposes?"
