Chapter 41: The Viscount's Mansion (1)
"Team, captain!" The man's eyes widened in surprise.
"Uncle Willie!" The little boy exclaimed in surprise, and the woman looked at Hathaway in surprise.
It is clear that they knew each other, and most likely in the army.
Hathaway glanced at the somewhat confused merchant next to him and said, "Barth, don't you want to introduce me?" ”
Barthes. Willy glared at the merchant angrily, then picked up the man and said, "Miss, this is the Sith. Karl, one of my soldiers in the army, this is the Sith's wife, Filna, and his son, Sir. Sith, this is Miss Bell. ”
"Miss Bell!" The three of them were a little stiff in their luggage.
"Don't be polite, Mr. Karl, now is not the time for you to salute." Hathaway frowned and hurriedly stopped.
Sith. Carl's appearance was a little miserable, it was not clear how many bruises there were on his body, and his face did not seem to be too seriously traumatized because he was holding his head tightly, but the bloodshot at the corner of his mouth already showed that he had suffered internal injuries, and his face was blue, I am afraid that the internal injuries were not light.
Hathaway took a bottle of healing potion from the ring and threw it to Barth. Willy: "Mr. Karl's condition is not good, let's talk about something to heal." ”
"Thank you!"
Barthes. Willie thanked him and hurriedly asked the Sith. Carl took medicine to heal his injuries.
Hathaway turned to the merchant, "Mr. Karl broke your cargo?" ”
"Yes." The merchant nodded humbly, although he may be rich, but the merchant has no advantage in the face of nobles, but his attachment to wealth makes him unable to back down.
"Is there anyone else to prove it?"
Hathaway looked at the crowd around her, "I'm talking about having no stake in this gentleman. ”
"I can prove it!"
"I can also prove that it was indeed this gentleman who hit the goods."
Several people came forward.
"Thank you very much."
Hathaway didn't say anything, she could sense that the men weren't lying, "Again, can you prove that this Mr. Carl deliberately broke the goods?" ”
The men looked at each other, and one of them said, "I think Mr. Karl broke those goods because he tripped over his leg." ”
Several others also chimed in.
"You have no doubt about the testimony of these gentlemen, do you?" Hathaway looked at the merchant.
"There is no doubt, but I have the right to defend my interests." The merchant also has his own insistence.
"Of course, I understand and support it."
Hathaway nodded unexpectedly: "However, you don't have the right to ruin other people's lives, and you still mean to." ”
She waved her hand to stop the merchant from speaking, "Now, give a price for your goods." ”
"This ...... Excluding the intact ones, these glassware are worth 50 carats. The merchant finally felt a little nervous.
"Listen, Mr. Karl understands to compensate for your losses, but you hit him with your hands and caused him to be injured, and my bottle of healing potion will cost at least ten gold carats, plus nutrition and rest after the injury, etc., I have no problem deducting your 15 gold carats, right?"
"But he still owes me 35 gold carats." The merchant shouted.
"I'll give it to you."
Hathaway took out 35 gold carats and threw them at his feet, "Take your money and goods, and leave immediately." ”
"You ......"
The merchant's face changed suddenly, and he was just about to speak. Alpei walked out of the crowd, followed by two family knights: "I'm Baron Alpei, you'd better do what this young lady says, otherwise you will definitely regret it!" ”
Is it that a man's aura is stronger?
Anyway, the merchant was seeing Lu Song. When Alpe appeared, he foolishly took his men and left the goods and coins that were not damaged.
"Xie Lu Xie, Alpei...... Viscount, I didn't expect you to be knighted at such a young age. Hathaway said.
"It's not worth mentioning, it's just a remnant of the family, and I haven't made any contribution to it."
Lv Song. Albert looked at the Sith. Carl and the others glanced at each other and said, "Miss Bell, it is better for you to leave here, if there is anything you need me to do, just ask." ”
"Thank you. I don't think it's a bother, though. ”
Hathaway bowed her head slightly to show her gratitude, but rejected Lu Song. With Alpe's help, she turned to Barthes. Willy: "Barth, it's time for us to leave. Of course, Mr. Carr can be with you. ”
A slight stop on the dock is easy to attract onlookers, which is not a good feeling. O'Hara and the others led the horses over, and after the group got on their mounts, they quickly left the dock.
After leaving the docks, Barth. Willie came up to Hathaway and said, "Miss, I have something to deal with. ”
"Need money?" Hathaway asked.
"Miss Xie Luxi, it won't take long, I will settle them in a hotel first." Barthes. Willie Road.
"Go ahead, I'll need some time, too."
Hathaway shrugged, "I find that my memory is a little bad, so far away from that Viscount's Mansion that I can't even remember where it is. ”
"Yes, miss, wait a minute, I'll find your way." Barthes. Willie bowed deeply.
……
"Mr. Brower, there is a man outside the door who calls himself 'Hathaway. Miss Bell, please check it out. A servant stood respectfully in front of an old man over the age of six.
The black butler's uniform worn by the old man explained his identity. However, I am afraid that everyone who faces him will not regard him as a dying old man...... Although the slightly rickety body did look old, the black uniform he wore on him was smooth and straight, and a faint coercion emanated from this body, making everyone standing in front of him feel pressure.
"You say...... It's Hathaway. Miss Bell? "Taylor. A look of surprise flashed in Blair's eyes, but his tone was calm and calm.
"Yes." The servant answered.
"I'll deal with it, you go to Lady Catherine and ask her to clean up Miss's room as soon as possible." Taylor. Brower nodded, and walked unhurriedly towards the gate.
"Yes, Mr. Brower." The servant said yes and immediately went to carry out the order.
Hathaway stood in front of the mansion, feeling strange and familiar at the same time, and she felt the need to reacquaint herself with it all...... The door suddenly opened again, and an old man over the age of sixteen appeared at the door: "Miss, welcome back!" ”
