Chapter 65: God
"You must be Mr. Finn." Seeing several children walking around Fin, the old man took the initiative to greet Fin, "Hello, I am the general manager of Bosenke Fishery Company, you can call me Colt." β
"Mr. Colt." Finn stopped vigilantly and nodded at the old man, "A gentleman like you is indeed not suitable for this environmentβwhat are you looking for me?" β
Colt took out a gentleman's stick with a nice black lacquer and two silver ends from his steam cart, and walked towards Finn on the ground, "If you don't mind, maybe we can talk while we go?" β
Finn followed him in silence.
"It's a very delicate village." As he walked, Colt looked at the surrounding houses with great interest and said, "Although it looks a little dilapidated, my eyes can see it clearly. He turned his head and pointed his white-gloved index and middle fingers into his eyes, "It's full of energy and hope, and with a little help, this village will soon become the most vibrant and hopeful town in all of Bosenk." β
Finn was stunned for a moment, then showed a somewhat flattering smile, "Mr. Colt, you have won the prize." β
"I have a lot of shortcomings as a person." Colt shook his head with a smile and said as he walked, "But I never lie. Mr. Finn, your village has a lot of potential. β
Finn smiled, his body slumping slightly. He didn't know what the general manager of the Bosenke fishing company meant by coming to the village and saying these things. But...... Finn wasn't stupid, he was pretty sure the old man wasn't at ease at all. Dussander had just sent a letter from himself and was preparing to plan a retaliatory action against Bosenke Fishery, when the general manager of Bosenke Fishery came over and said good things?
If there is no special purpose, the general manager just comes over and says good things to make people happy...... Finn was able to eat the rotten leather shoes on his feet raw.
If the enemy does not move, I will not move. Finn put on a "humble and flattering" look that would have been the standard of the management of the Bosenke Fisheries Company, and waited quietly for the general manager to explain his intentions.
"I've heard from the people in the Ministry of Security that they gave you a commission before." After a while, Colt began to speak lightly about the murderous content, "I have verified with the Ministry of Security, and this entrusted task has not been completely completed. But based on our previous good relationship and long-term agreement, I personally decided to continue this commission. β
Finn hunched over, smiled and nodded, desperately patting Colt on the back with words like "kindness," "generosity," and "generosity."
"I know that you captured a teenager in your previous operation." Colt pulled out the white handkerchief on his chest and gently wiped the silver goat's head at the top of the cane, "Let me take this little kid away, and your task will still be completed." You have a quota of 160,000 pounds, and you can withdraw coal or wheat flour as you choose. β
Finn looked up in shock, and his hand near the right pocket was subconsciously removed by him.
"That little boy is the only son of a venerable nobleman." Colt explained to Finn earnestly, "His mother was the first Speaker of the House of Commons in Newsar, and befriending her means a lot to the company. And......" he said, taking a deep breath, "we should also show our respect for such a great female politician who cared for the poor and had a good heart." β
Finn stammered a little in his reply, "Old ...... But ......, sir."
"Hand him over to me. 180,000 pounds of coal or wheat flour, you choose. Colt interrupted Finn, who looked at Finn and said, "Live or die, I want it." β
"How did I not know I was worth so much?" As soon as Colt's voice fell, Dussand's lazy voice interjected directly. Dressed in a suit of hay trousers, he staggered a few days away, "Eighteen thousand pounds of coal, which is worth fifty-four thousand gold pounds in Upper Albin, that's a lot of money." β
Colt glanced at Dussand, somewhat uncertain, and then looked at Finn with an inquiring look.
"Master, it's him." Finn saw Dussand's hand in his trouser pocket, and then continued his performance, "You can take him away now, when will our food be delivered?" β
"Soon, soon." Colt's answer was very perfunctory, he let go of the gentleman's stick he was holding in his hand, took two quick steps towards Dussand, and said in a trembling voice, "Young master, you can frighten us subordinates!" β
Dussand's expression suddenly turned cold, and he felt that this old man was not in a good mood.
"Young master, Madam is going crazy." Colt continued to move closer to Dussand, shouting as he went, "It's too unseemly to mix with the navy, how can you pretend to be Lord Dusander?" He's just a low-ranking nobleman, but you're the son of a marquis! β
Dussaint jerked out his pistol and shot Colt at it.
It's a bit of a pity. Dussaint sighed, his shot was aimed at the opponent's right arm. It's a pity that the old man's movements were a little up and down, and the result was ...... The shot landed on the opponent's right shoulder.
But Dussander also had no chance to fire a second shot.
A group of villagers armed with weapons appeared in the windows and doorways of all the surrounding houses. And Finn, who had a cold face, also directly took out the pistol in his pocket and put it on Dussand's head.
"Take Mr. Colt down and bandage him!" Finn snapped, "Now, noble lord, you have to give me an explanation. β

"You idiot!" Everything on Dussand's body was found, and he himself was tied to the ground. Looking at Finn with a cold face, Dussaint scolded angrily, "You believe what this old man says two words?!" β
"He has no reason to lie." Finn said categorically, "He came here alone, and what he said at the beginning was exactly what you were trying to hide. As a result, you accidentally said that you missed your mouth later, but you are ready to kill him directly! Compared to Mr. Colt, you are more suspicious now! β
Dusson was tied to the ground and cursed, while Colt, who had just bandaged his wound outside the door, shouted in succession, "Mr. Finn, you quickly release the young master!" We have something to discuss! β
"I hate it when people lie to me." After kicking Dusson twice in anger, Finn turned to Colt and said angrily, "Mr. Colt, you lied to me too. β
"I'm willing to compensate you for an extra batch of supplies!" Colt was sweating profusely, and he didn't know whether it was pain or urgency, "Mr. Finn, don't hurt the young master!" β
"Now, at least 10,000 pounds of food and fuel will be delivered to the village right away." Finn said coldly, "You write a letter and ask the coachman to bring it back." Until I see food and fuel, you also want to stay in the village as a hostage! With that, he waved his hand and asked the other villagers to escort Colt out.
After getting a report that Colt had been imprisoned in the same cave where Dussander had been staying, Finn dismissed everyone around him.
He leaned over to Dussand's side and slowly crouched down.
Then a thumbs up.
"You're a god!"
