Chapter 244: Debt Collection
Mu Ling didn't fall asleep until the second half of the night, and when she woke up the next day, it was already noon.
"Mumu, you're awake!" Mu Xue was blowing the sea breeze on the deck.
"What about them?" Mu Ling looked at the vast sea.
"Left this morning!" Mu Xue stretched.
The surroundings have been cleaned, and I heard Mu Xue say that those women did it.
Those women left early this morning, and the princess was tied up, and when she wanted to escape, she fell into the sea, and when she found out, she was out of breath.
There were people on those boats who could sail the boat, and they spontaneously organized everyone into groups of people according to their places, and some of them had families, and they wanted to go back after being away for so long.
"Oh...... By the way, there was a woman who said that she would not leave, and there was no choice but to let her stay on our ship. As soon as she talked about this, Mu Xue was very helpless.
The woman, fearing that they would drive her away, took care of all the affairs of the ship herself, and almost came to serve them in her own clothes.
"Is that the woman named Liu Hua?" Mu Ling guessed.
"How do you know?" Mu Xue was a little surprised.
"Intuition......" Mu Ling felt the warm sea breeze.
Liu Hua is a little different from others, she was originally from the Star Moon Empire.
Her father is a wealthy local businessman, so the family is wealthy, she naturally received a good education since she was a child, and she has a childhood sweetheart, not long after the two got married, their town was sacked by pirates.
Her parents were killed, and the young couple were tied to the ship, and her husband was a skilled craftsman, and in order to protect his wife, he took the initiative to build weapons and various things for the pirates.
Until half a month ago, her husband fell seriously ill, and the ship's doctor was helpless, afraid of infecting other pirates, who threw her husband overboard.
Liu Hua naturally wanted to be martyred, but she was already three months pregnant, on the one hand, she was reluctant to give up the child in her womb, and on the other hand, she didn't want the child to be born on this dark and dirty ship, so she hesitated.
"Don't let her work, let her rest well, she has a body, she can't do rough work."
Let a pregnant woman be busy, and she can't help it.
Mu Xue nodded, Mu Ling didn't say anything, she didn't even notice this.
As the days passed, they went smoothly along the way.
Ten days later, their ship finally arrived at the port of Haiya in the Aran Empire.
The territory of the Aram Empire is not small, even larger than the original Star and Moon Empire, but their population is small.
As soon as they landed, everyone felt that it was better to be down-to-earth.
Chiao and Yunmeng are still waiting in the sea, Yunmeng can come to the land, but as soon as its huge body appears, it will definitely cause panic.
The men sent by the general Yig had been waiting in the port for a long time.
The man who came was a young man named Ram Limbo, the nephew of the general Ram Yike.
Ram Limpo naturally didn't know Mu Ling's identity, and Mu Ling disguised his identity as a merchant in Shalya for convenience.
Ram Limpo was a little arrogant, and he did not understand why his uncle had given him such a task to entertain the people who had come from Shyya.
He didn't have a good impression of the people of the Sarian Empire, and although he had apologized and compensated for what happened in the Star Stone Conference, the damage to them was indelible, not to mention, there was a friend of his.
"I heard you're businessmen? I don't know what kind of businessman you are? Although Ram Limpo didn't like this group of people, after all, it was a task assigned by his uncle, and what should be understood still had to be understood.
"It's not worth mentioning to run a small business and open a restaurant or something." Mu Yin replied, "Where is the general now?" ”
Ram Lin Bo secretly complained in his heart, and his face was not obvious, "Uncle, he is busy these days, so let me pick you up." You will rest here for a day today, and then we will set off tomorrow morning. ”
Mu Ling has been looking at the city, full of novelty.
Soon the crowd came to the inn.
After arranging the room, Ram Limpo left.
As soon as Mu Ling came to Haiya City, he sensed the existence of the black ao, but he had not gained anything until now.
She plans to go to the city now, and go to Mizuno's parents by the way.
Mu Xue and Mu Yin went to contact the Big Who Intelligence Bureau here.
The rest of the people stayed at the inn to rest.
Mu Ling and Yun Fei walked around, and finally found the blacksmith shop of the Mizuno family on Tianshui Street in the south of the city.
It's just that the shop is surrounded by people, and the suppressed crying of women keeps coming from inside.
"What are you talking about today, we have all closed this shop! It's useless for you to say anything more! I've relaxed the deadline, so don't blame us if you can't take it out......"
A one-eyed strong man stood at the door of the iron shop, his bare skin was crisscrossed with scars, and the whole person looked murderous and very intimidating.
There were also two thugs beside him, looking at the couple opposite with no expression.
"Brother Xu! Please, give us a few more days, we will pay it back, we will definitely pay it back to you! ”
A man bowed vigorously to them, and finally fell to his knees and pleaded, while a woman next to him was crying in a low voice, her eyes red and swollen.
The onlookers were all sympathetic.
"This couple is honest, and the shop business is good, but who knew that such a thing happened...... Alas......"
Some uninformed people hurriedly asked what was going on.
"His youngest son has been lost for almost two months, and he hasn't found it yet...... If you want me to say, it's better to give up as soon as possible...... The continent is so big, where can I find someone to ......?"
"In order to find their son, they hired a lot of people to look for them, but the people were like evaporating, and they just couldn't find ......."
"As a parent, how can you not feel sorry for your child...... Whoever loses their child can't feel distressed......"
"Alas...... Pity the hearts of parents all over the world......"
The people around him sighed again and again.
"It's not that I don't forgive you, I also take money to do things, I forgive you, so who will forgive me? If the money doesn't come back, I won't get paid, and I also have a family, and they are also waiting for me to eat......" Xu Ye said.
"This ...... Brother Xu! I know! I know! Mizuno's father, Nanmen Mountain, had a sad face on his face.
Is their family really cornered......
"Take it...... Take it ......."
"Excuse me, how much do they owe you?" Mu Ling made his way through the crowd to the door of the iron shop.
"Counting the interest, it's a total of 1,000 gold coins." Xu Ye replied, looking at the young man with a raw face.
Nan Disciple also looked at Mu Ling, wondering who he was,
Mu Ling nodded, and Yun Bei took out a ticket from his bag, which was exactly one thousand.
"Thank you so much, two sons! It's just that you and I don't know each other, so don't help me anymore and let them take this store...... Just as we're leaving......" Nanmen Shan looked at Mu Ling and Yun Fei gratefully.
"Where are you going?" Mu Ling was puzzled.
"The child is lost, even if our family smashes the pot and sells iron, I will go to find him, and I will see people alive and dead and corpses...... No matter how difficult it is, we have to find him......" Nanmen Shan wiped a handful of tears.
"You take the money, bring the IOU" Mu Ling looked directly at Xu Ye.
"Are you sure?" Xu Ye asked unconvinced.
Mu Ling nodded, "Sure!" Just bring the IOU. ”
"Good!" Xu Ye nodded, took out a piece of paper from his arms and handed it to Mu Ling.
Mu Ling opened it and put the IOU in Nanmen Mountain's hand.
Nanmen Mountain trembled slightly, not knowing what to say.
"In that case, then we won't bother! Leave! ”
Xu Ye admired Mu Ling very much, he also wanted to help Nanmen Mountain, but he had no money, and he couldn't bear to look at them like this, but he couldn't lose his job......
The three of them left, and Mu Ling and Yun Fei walked into the store and closed the door.
The onlookers wanted to take another look, and when they saw that the door was closed, they dispersed and went their own way.
"Our husband and wife thank the two sons for their great kindness, if you don't dislike it, this shop will be yours......" Nanmen Shan took out the deed and knelt in front of Mu Ling with the woman.
"You guys get up first, listen to what I say, I'm here to deliver something for Mizuno!" Mu Ling supported the kneeling man on the ground with both hands.
"Childe knows Ono? Where is he? Is he okay? Ji Susu looked at Mu Ling in surprise, and grabbed her shoulders with excited hands.
"Susu, don't get excited, listen to this son." Nanmen Mountain suppressed his emotions.
"This is for you, Mizuno asked me to give it to you" Mu Ling took out Mizuno's photos and letters.
Looking at the son on the painting, the husband and wife hugged their heads and cried, crying silently for a while, their son was still alive! Still alive! That's great!!!
It took a long time for the two of them to stabilize emotionally.
Ji Susu opened the letter, looked at the familiar font, and tears fell again.
"So Ono is in Childe's mansion now?" Nanmen Mountain asked.
"Yes, he must have said in the letter that it is inconvenient for him to go out for the time being, and it just so happened that I came here, so I wanted to report peace to you......" Mu Ling nodded.
The husband and wife knelt on the ground again, "Thank you Gongzi for saving my son!" Thank you...... Thank you ......."
Mu Ling's nose was sore, tears almost fell, she looked at Mizuno's parents and remembered her father.
"Mizuno is very good, if you want, you can go with me, although you can't see him every day, but you can see him often......" Mu Ling twitched his nose and took a deep breath.
"Bang !!"
The door was kicked open.
A girl outside the door walked in angrily with a stick, looked at the two kneeling on the ground, and became even more angry, "I said that we would pay it back, why do you still bully my father!" ”
Several people were stunned for a moment.
The girl is slightly older than Mizuno, but that looks like a female version of Mizuno.
"Masami? You put down the stick......" Ji Susu quickly got up and grabbed the stick from her hand.
"Mother!! We borrowed money, and we didn't pay it back, so what did you kneel down and beg them to do? Masami looked at Mu Ling angrily.
"They are not ......"
Before Ji Susu could explain, she saw Yami standing in front of the husband and wife, kneeling on the ground, her eyes full of tears.
