Chapter 19: Hank

Everyone who knows Hank will think that Hank is a gentleman, and his always calm look on his face and his always clean and tidy clothes make it seem that he should have come from a noble Italian aristocratic family, not a family of commoner merchants in Memleben.

Although Hank's background did not satisfy him, he was appreciated by the patriarch of the Goethe family for his ability, and was promoted to the head of foreign affairs of the Goethe family, with full responsibility for all kinds of social activities between the Goethe family and other families. Even recently, a certain big man revealed that he was considering choosing a side lady to let Hank join the Goethe family, so that Hank could truly become an enviable aristocratic lord.

But if today's people who are usually conquered by Hank's demeanor see the current image of Hank, they will be surprised.

Because Hank was now galloping on his horse, he didn't pay any attention to his wind-blown messy hair, and his clothes, which looked a little crumpled because they clung to the horse's back. This is in normal times, and the ever-personable Hank would find this almost impossible to accept. But now the strict Mr. Hank has no energy to think about this matter, and now he only hopes that his horse will run faster and faster, and it is better to reach the young master of the Klose family at once to stop what he is doing now.

About half an hour ago, the Goethe family spies reported to the Goethe family what had happened in the Iris Manor. But how could the Goethe family be involved in such a deceitful and dangerous thing, at most they were only responsible for promoting it behind the scenes, and would not leave any evidence that any of the noble lords of the Goethe family were personally involved in this matter. So after knowing that Caroline had gone to Mirror Lake, Hank, who had been in charge of communicating with Saan, was sent over, and the family's order to Hank was simple: to coax away the childlike Carolan and the incompetent Saan without harming the interests of the Goethe family.

But when Hank arrives at Mirror Lake, he suddenly finds that the painting style and intelligence on the other side of Mirror Lake are completely inconsistent; According to the intelligence, Carolan only said that he was going to come to Mirror Lake to hunt and have a picnic with twenty guards and a few attendants, but he didn't say that this picnic was also escorted by hundreds of heavily armed cavalry! If this was a picnic, were these cavalrymen ready to chase the rabbits in the armor that looked so heavy?

The other people who had come with Hank also noticed that the atmosphere on the other side was not quite right, and this was the small commotion that Carolan had observed earlier. However, the riots did not spread, and Hank, with his usual prestige, suppressed everyone's uneasiness and kept the team going. Of course, perhaps in addition to Hank's prestige, the punishment after the failure of the mission and Carolan's usual good reputation also played a big role.

However, when Hank saw that someone on the other side seemed to be destroying the boundary pillars that he had personally led people to temporarily plant last night, he knew that if he didn't move faster, the young master on the other side would not wait for him to come over to communicate, so there was a scene of Hank galloping on horseback.

"Huhu,,, wait for Master Carolan." After more than ten minutes of running wildly, Hank finally arrived not far in front of Carolan and shouted.

"Cut, it's so fast." Carolan muttered to herself; But now that Hank has shouted his name, Carolan can't pretend to be deaf anymore. After all, he had come to trouble the Goethe family, but he didn't give them a handle to say that he didn't know how to count.

"Robert, Saan, stop! The guests came. Carolan didn't rush to respond to Hank, but first asked Saan and Robert, who were burying their heads in removing the fence, to stop first, even if they wanted to remove these eyesores, they were not in a hurry at this moment. Looking at Robert, they slowly walked back behind her, Carolan didn't care about deliberately falling behind the crowd, looking at Saan, who seemed to show a little hope in Hank's eyes, but looked up playfully and noticed the Goethe family manager who was not talking to herself but tidying up her hair after turning over and dismounting.

After a few minutes, Hank, who had finished tidying up, raised his head and bowed deeply to Caroline before saying, "Thank you for your forgiveness and forgiveness for Hank's presumptuousness." He didn't say that he was thanking Carolan for stopping the work of removing the fence, or thanking Caroline for waiting for him to tidy up.

"Your name is Hank?" Carolan was a little unanswered.

"Yes, Master Caroline." Hank bowed again, a perfect ninety degrees.

"What are you doing here?" Carolan looked at Hank with a smile, he thought it was interesting to see the Goethe housekeeper who was a little overly polite, you must know that the Klose family was not such an interesting person; Klose's family is rich in the kind of majestic warriors, but there are no such cautious guys.

"For when I was walking around here, I saw that your men seemed to be destroying the pillars of our House Goethe... So.. Hank is a seasoned veteran, and he denies that he is spying on Iris Manor and throws the blame to Caroline. However, he was not given a chance to continue to use his eloquence, and as soon as he finished his first sentence, he was interrupted by a deafening roar.

When Hank said the word Goethe's stake, he was interrupted by the tsunami-like roar of the cavalry brought by Heinrich.

This roar not only frightened several timid fellows of the Goethe family into falling off their horses, but also scared Carolan enough. But fortunately, Heinrich quietly held Caroline's habitual hand behind her back before this chorus roared, which made Caroline feel a little mentally prepared. But Rao was like this, and Carolan was still taken aback.

After quickly adjusting the expression on her face, Caroline continued to look at Hank as if nothing had happened; Hank seemed to want to pretend that nothing had happened, if his legs weren't shaking. Looking at Hank, who was forced to calm down in front of him, the feeling of dominance in Caroline's heart came out again.

"It seems that my warriors have a lot of opinions about what you say~ but I'm sorry, they're a little excited, Mr. Hank." Carolan apologized to Hank very insincerely.

"It's okay, it's okay, the fighters will always vent their emotions very directly... But this matter has been documented in authoritative documents, and Mr. Saan should have told you about the agreement that our family made with Sir Hegel twenty years ago, but for some reason it was not fulfilled. Three days ago, when my family sent someone to communicate with Mr. Sa'an about this matter, in order to show the sincerity of our family, we specially exempted the land contribution that should be returned because of the occupation of Jinghu Lake by the Iris Manor for the past 20 years. Hank still really has a relationship with Saan in this regard, and he also took out the so-called twenty-year land payment to express his sincerity, if it weren't for the complete nonsense of the agreement, it would sound as if the Goethe family was really sincere.

"Documents... Hearing this, Carolan lowered her head and rummaged through her horse's pocket, and then took out the document that Sa'an claimed to be proof of the Goethe family's ownership of Mirror Lake. "Is that it?" Carolan watched as Saan waved the document in her hand, and then confirmed to Saan.

Looking at Carolan's flat gaze, Saan didn't know why he felt like a knife in his throat, so he could only nod stiffly, and then immediately lowered his head and didn't dare to respond to Hank's inquiring eyes in various ways.

"Do you mean that this document is a contract between Sir Hegel and the head of your Goethe family?" Carolan saw Sa'an nodding and kept staring at Hank with a dangerous look, staring at Hank until he was sweating all over his body before speaking slowly.

"Yes... A feeling of unease welled up in Hank's heart, yes, yes, this document was indeed concocted by them last night; However, due to the rush of time, this document actually has many loopholes. From the very beginning, Hank was very opposed to attacking Carolan without adequate preparation, but unfortunately, although he was quite appreciated in the Goethe family, he did not have a say in the eyes of the upper echelons of the Goethe family, who were really in charge of the matter, so his advice was completely ignored by everyone.

"That's good... Shh A shrill voice suddenly came from Caroline's hand, and Caroline actually tore the contract in half in front of Hank, which was said to be kept by Sir Hegel. Then Carolan directly threw the first half of the contract to Hank, and then pointed to the half of the contract in his hand and said: "Three hours, give you three hours, let your people return to the Goethe family to retrieve the original contract kept in your family." And then.. As she spoke, Carolan took out another document from her pouch. As long as your contract is exactly the same as the half of the contract in my hand, and the heraldic mark on it is exactly the same as the heraldic mark on the contract between Sir Hegel and His Majesty Henry. Don't say that I will give you back to Jinghu, and I will also give you a lot of land payment, and I will make up for it all for you! Caroline made a big move, pointing to the biggest flaw in this fraudulent contract.

You must know that there is no so-called printing technology in this era, if there is a need to conclude a contract, the general process is to ask the same person to draft a seller's statement and a buyer's statement, the two declarations will be depicted on the border with complex patterns, when the two declarations are put together, the patterns will be perfectly connected together, and then the two parties will each affix their own heraldic imprints, and finally exchange declarations to reach a contract. The two declarations are taken together, and only when the handwriting, pattern, and coat of arms are completely correct will they be recognized as a genuine contract. This means that the statement in Carolan's hand is a completely flawless buyer's statement, and it is naturally stamped with the seal of the patriarch of the Goethe family. But there must be something wrong with the seal on the seller's declaration in the hands of the Goethes! For in any case they could not get the seal of Sir Hegel in one day.

The engraving of one seal takes a long time, and it is extremely difficult to make two identical seals; So when Hank forged the contract with Saan yesterday, he only temporarily asked the craftsman to forge a seal of Sir Hegel; So Carolan now suddenly pulled out a document bearing the imprint of the original Sir Hegel, and Hank knew that their plan was about to fail completely. Because as long as the two seals are put together and compared, the problem can be seen.

"This... This... Hank was a little confused, but soon his eyes rolled and he was ready to get out of the way to protect himself. But just as he was about to speak, Caroline seemed to see what he was trying to say. "You shouldn't need to go to get a contract, you just stay and hunt with me." Caroline waved her hand as if she were commanding the family's hound.

ā€œć€‚ć€‚ć€‚ Be.. In the end, Hank still couldn't muster up the courage to resist Carolan, who could take his life from the guards behind him at any time, so he had no choice but to respond.

"Robert! Take the guards to hunt some game~ I'm hungry! Carolan didn't care who Hank had arranged to report to the Goethe family, and went back to discuss the hunt with Robert. Now that he has sounded the clarion call for a counterattack, it is up to the Goethe family to take over.
