Chapter 11 I still want to rob
The old man's sideburns were gray, and he burst into tears, and it took him a long time to choke things up and explain things clearly. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
It turned out that the old man and the young were all servants who used to serve Adam closely, the old man's name was Yang Deshan, and the girl's name was Yang Nicole, who was the old man's only granddaughter.
Since Adam's disappearance and Andrew's succession, the two of Adam's closest servants have been treated extremely unfairly by the clan, and they have not only been assigned the hardest and most tiring work, but also become characters who are insulted and bullied.
That's all it takes, today, this Young Master Liwen actually directly found a large group of craftsmen and ordered the demolition of the only house where the two of them lived!
It's no wonder that the two dared to quarrel with Lewin before, the two of them have been living in this house since they joined Gilbert's house as servants, and they have been living in this house for nearly ten years, and now they are watching the old house being demolished, and the sourness in their hearts can be imagined.
"It's too much!"
Even if Wu Ming is not the real Adam, he is very sympathetic to the two of them after listening to the old man's crying, and it is really inhumane for the clan to treat an old man who is over half a hundred years old and a girl who is not yet an adult.
It's just that Wu Ming also has difficulties, he wants to help these two people make decisions, the problem is that he is new to the people, and he doesn't know the situation in the clan, and he doesn't want to have conflicts with the clansmen.
He was thinking about how to solve this matter, and he didn't want Levin to be a little timid in the face of the old servant's accusation, but instead hooked his shoulder before Wu Ming spoke, looking like a good brother and grinning: "Third brother, the second brother saw that you haven't come back for a long time, and thought that you would never come back, so he asked someone to demolish your house, and it would be a waste to have an empty floor, you won't have an opinion on being a brother, right?" ”
As he spoke, Lewin glared at the two servants behind him and shouted, "The third young master has been missing for a long time, and finally returned home, why are you standing aside stupidly and not knowing how to come up to meet you?" ”
"Yes!" The two servants were tall and big, and they looked like Lian Jiazi, and when they heard Levin's greeting, they immediately bent forward and bowed, and said loudly, "Welcome back Young Master Adam!" ”
What a red fruit fruit under the horse!
Wu Ming's face was flat, and he simply followed the other party's meaning and said: "The second brother has orders, of course I am the junior brother...... No comment. ”
"Well, it's still the third brother, you know the second brother's mind, how can you just tear down a house, and even pester me to quarrel, I really don't understand the rules at all. If it weren't for you, third brother, I would have whipped them down with a whip. ”
Seeing that Wu Ming didn't dare to give him the slightest opinion as before, Lewin couldn't help laughing, and got carried away, he actually stepped forward and patted Wu Ming's cheek with his hand, making a "snap" sound, and the two servants next to him laughed out loud.
Wu Ming frowned slightly and did not say a word.
Old Yang on the side sighed secretly when he saw this, Young Master Adam's status in the clan was not high, so he always behaved a little cowardly in front of the two righteous brothers, and every time Old Yang saw that his young master couldn't raise his head in front of others, it was inevitable that he didn't feel good in his heart. The old baron died of illness this time, and Young Master Adam's life in the clan will be even more difficult in the future.
"Second Young Master, you deceive people too much!"
At this time, Yang Nicole, who was only a teenager, couldn't help but stand up, only to see her hands on her waist like a little adult, pointing at Lewin's nose angrily, "This house was given to Young Master Adam by the master, and the young master and we have lived in this house for more than ten years. ”
"How many times have I said it, and this is what the new baron nodded in agreement." Lewin looked at the three of them contemptuously, "Want to say? Mr. Andrew's words are the saying! ”
"What new baron, the heir he specified......" Yang Nicole was still arguing, and the old Yang on the side quickly covered her mouth, so that she didn't say the big rebellious words excitedly, but she was so anxious that Xiao Nizi let out a "woo woo" breath from her mouth.
"Young Master, let's go. Lao Yang: I still have an ancestral house in the town, but the house is a little simple, so let's go there for one night today, and then find a way to buy a cheap and clean house in the town tomorrow. ”
Yang Deshan's body stiffened a lot in an instant, he stepped forward to hold Wu Ming's hand, seeing that the young master looked sluggish, it seemed that he couldn't accept such a reality, he couldn't help but sigh secretly in his heart, and said in his heart that the young master has also suffered these days: first the old Gilbert died, and then his only sister was also killed, and when he returned home, he was oppressed by the two brothers like this, and no matter how open-minded a person is, he can't withstand such a big blow.
But he didn't know, why was Wu Ming sluggish? At this time, his heart can be described as surging.
This room...... Is it Adam's?
Wu Ming heard the argument between Nicole and Levin, and it took a long time to come to his senses: Feelings, this demolished and messy, four-walled hut is not only where two servants live, but also his own house?
Hey, hey, hey, that's a bit of a joke.
What about the villa?
What about the manor?
The sage said: Wealth is like a floating cloud to me...... Really him. Mom will become a floating cloud!
Facing the pile of debris and rubble, Wu Ming was speechless and choked with tears, and he didn't know what expression to put on for a long time, no wonder Yang Laohan mistakenly thought that he was stunned.
It wasn't until Lao Yang said something in his ear that Wu Ming came to his senses: The house in the territory is gone, you can go to the town to buy a good one, anyway, he is not Adam, can he really give up an old house?
Thinking about it like this, his heart suddenly felt much lighter, but then the problem came: the house could be bought, but the good house was expensive.
Wu Ming weighed the coins in his pocket, Chen Wan'er gave him a total of twenty silver coins, one and a half for the car, and two and a half for hops, and now he only had sixteen silver coins left in his body.
"Lao Yang, a good two-story house, at the current market price, how much will it cost?" Wu Ming asked in a low voice.
Yang Laohan thought for a few seconds and replied: "Like the house we lived in before, the market price is about ten gold coins. ”
In this world, one gold coin is equivalent to a hundred silver coins, which means that a good house can be bought for a thousand silver coins! With this bit of silver in Wu Ming's hand, it is not enough to buy a toilet, it is estimated that he will buy a toilet at most.
Hearing the news, Wu Ming's heart sank again, but then his eyes lit up again, and he immediately looked at Comrade Levin, who was standing aside and directing the craftsmen to demolish the house.
This Levin's whole body is inlaid with gold and silver, his clothes are flashy, and even his belt is jade, and he looks like a rich guy. As the saying goes, if you don't go to hell, who does? The great leader taught us that the fastest way to get rich is always to rob the local tyrants!
So, Wu Ming, who was planning to "give three points to others" just now, looked at his second brother with the same uneasy and kind eyes as a wolf looking like a lamb.
