Chapter 352: Making a Business
The Count of Lorraine didn't even dare to raise his head under Allen's substantial-like gaze, and cold sweat trickled down his forehead. The Countess on the www.biquge.info side of the pen & fun & Pavilion wanted to say a few words on behalf of the Count, but she suddenly found that she could only open her mouth, but no sound came from her mouth, which made her so frightened that she almost thought that she had become mute.
Alan didn't speak, the Count of Lorraine didn't dare to speak, the countess couldn't speak, and for a while the living room became quiet, but the atmosphere became more and more depressing.
"Mr. Kanter..."
The first to break the silence was Elvis's mother, the situation in front of her was obviously not what she wanted to see, she came to ask Alan to save Elvis, and she didn't want Alan to kill the Earl of Lorraine or others in a fit of anger, if this is really the case, even if Elvis is rescued in the future, he is afraid that he will not be able to deal with himself in the family.
"Auntie, go back and rest first, leave the rescue of El to me, and I will discuss it with Lord Earl. ”
Alan was full of respect for Elvis's mother, he knew the hardships of this woman and the hardships she endured for her son, but she had no regrets, so when she saw that Winnie's clothes were still dripping with water and her lips were blue, she hurriedly tried to persuade Winnie to go back to rest first.
"I'm fine, you talk, I'll listen. ”
Winnie shook her head firmly, and of course she refused to leave at this time.
"Miranda, take Auntie to change her clothes. ”
Alan commanded.
The little girl did not have any clothes in her hand that would fit Winnie, so she looked at the butler, who in turn looked at the Count of Lorraine.
"Butler, go get a set of clothes for her to change into. ”
Seeing the Count speak, the butler turned away, and quickly retrieved a set of maid's clothes and handed it to the little girl, who took Winnie to the room next to the living room to change under the protection of Harvey and Stanny.
When Winnie came out after changing her clothes, the little girl asked the butler to pour her a cup of hot water to drink, and her face became a little bloody, and in the process, Alan and the Count of Lorraine sat there without speaking. Clooney was still on his knees, the sword was still suspended above his head, not going up or down, it could fall and plunge into his head at any moment, although Clooney was not drenched in the rain, but he was also shivering, and the ground under his body was wet, and he didn't know if it was his sweat or some other liquid.
"Lord Earl, do you still want to save your son?"
After Winnie sat down and drank a cup of hot water, and her state had recovered a lot, Alan finally ended her silence and asked in a cold tone, and he deliberately accentuated the word "son", which could refer to Elvis who was kidnapped by horse bandits, or Clooney who knelt on the ground.
"Of course, Your Excellency the Magician. I didn't mean to deceive you just now, in fact, I have been hesitating how to rescue Elvis, but I have never found a feasible way. ”
Of course, the Earl of Lorraine understood what Allen meant, at this moment the life and death of his two sons were tied together, and if he wanted to save it, he would save it together, and if he didn't save it, he would die together.
"So how about we do a business?"
"What business?"
"I'll save Elvis for you, and you sold me half a million pounds of grain. ”
"No... No... , Mr. Kanter, if you can help rescue Elvis, I'm willing to give you half a million pounds of food. ”
The Earl of Lorraine hurriedly waved his hand and confessed eagerly.
"No, I don't want El to owe you a favor for this. ”
Alan waved his hand and simply rejected the Count's kindness.
"Your Excellency the Magician, Elvis is my son, and I did it willingly. ”
The count's face was full of guilt.
"I don't know if you're willing, but El must be willing, so I'll pay you the market price for this grain. ”
Alan got up from his chair, walked straight to Clooney who was kneeling on the ground, pointed to the silent Clooney and said:
"Half a month later, I will bring gold coins to receive food, and I will take your son with me, so that you don't have to worry about whether you want to save Elvis or not, just treat this transaction as if it was for him. And what happened today must not be spread out even half a sentence, or I will kill him. ”
As soon as Alan's words fell, Harvey and Stanny had already rushed over, and one left and one right picked up Clooney, who had collapsed to the ground, and walked out. Behind them, the dangling sword finally fell to the ground with a "clang".
The Countess, who had been sitting in her chair, could not shout, and could only listen quietly to the conversation of several people. But at this moment, seeing that Alan wanted to take her son away, she struggled to get up and help her son, but found that an invisible force pressed her body against the chair, and she couldn't even move. The Countess knew that all this was the good work of the magician, but it was so strange and unheard of that she felt a sense of horror that she could only watch as the two teenagers dragged their son out of the living room like dead dogs. Looking at her son's dejected back, the Countess finally realized Winnie Vera's feelings.
"Auntie, let's go. ”
Hearing Alan's call, Winnie Vera also stood up, and she glanced at the Earl and Lady of Lorraine, the complete opposite of before, and at this moment the counts and their eyes were full of pleading gazes when they looked at her.
"Take care, sir!"
Winnie Vera finished speaking and turned and walked out the door.
"Your Excellency the Magician, how can you release Clooney?"
The Earl of Lorraine chased after him outside the gate, stood in the rain, and shouted to Allen, who was about to mount his horse.
"After rescuing Elvis, I would naturally let him go. ”
Alan on horseback threw down a sentence lightly, then waved his wand, and a blue curtain of light hung over the heads of several people, and he urged the horse under his crotch to gallop in the direction of the gate of the manor, leaving the Count of Lorraine standing helplessly in the rain.
"Master, Clooney was captured by them, what should I do?"
After Alan left, the invisible force that oppressed the Countess finally disappeared, and the Countess was able to speak again, she ran out just in time to see the Count of Lorraine standing in the rain and watching Alan and the others ride away, so she cried and asked.
"What to do, pray, pray Elvis doesn't have an accident. ”
The Count of Lorraine sighed.
"Sir, do you want to ask the border guards for help?"
The butler walked over to the master and asked.
"No way!"
This time, without waiting for the Count of Lorraine to speak, the Countess had already begun to answer, she remembered the cold eyes of the magician just now, and had no doubt that the other party would take her son's life in a fit of rage.
"Don't spread this matter first, they have the Academy of Magic as a backer, even if the army comes, they won't do anything to them, even if they make trouble, as long as there are no deaths, we can't take advantage. Fama Ux, the head of the Academy of Magic, has a high status in the Imperial Palace, and his words carry a lot of weight in His Majesty's ears, and this person is used to protecting his shortcomings, so if he treats Elvis like this, if he knows that suing us in front of His Majesty, it will have a serious impact on the entire family. ”
The Earl of Lorraine had dealt with the old magician in the past, and was very clear about the old magician's character, and understood that the consequences of angering the old magician would be serious, and their behavior of Elvis would obviously make the old magician very angry.
