Ukhru's father decided to satisfy his son.

So he pretended to threaten Howl, and secretly sent someone to investigate the details of Howl's car dealership. The most optimistic estimate he got was that "the old company won't survive next spring." He secretly tightened the thread and held Hal firmly in his hands. He also inquired about an interesting fact: "Howl's caravan disappeared into the steppes", and Uhru's father knew an Elmo chariot patrol, who had been patrolling the steppes for many years, and had a large number of rescued prisoners and goods hoarded under his command. It is customary to inspect and notify the merchants who have been attacked, redeem their goods at a third of the price, and in the case of captives, express some gratitude and get them back. The head of the Kuji mission knew he had one more point in his stack.

He summoned Ukhru and inquired about his determination. He knew by words that the child had been completely bewitched by Eros.

The regimental commander also inquired about Spencer Uhru's behavior in Uxhall over the years. Spencer's sentence is "He's fine, there's ??? and other advantages. However, it was ????", the regiment commander mainly listened to the content of the 'but' and found that his child was not a heinous bastard, which was enough, and it was not a good thing for the people of the steppe, especially the future warriors of the steppe, to be too polite. Uhru's father still has some emotion and fear when he thinks about those days in Beihai. The days of the Iron Horse Ice River are precious for a man, but they are not necessary. Especially the soldiers who died at a young age, Ukhru's father remembered their appearances, remembered their voices and smiles, but it is likely that in a simple battle, a few would have died, either by an arrow directly in the cheek, or by a slashed arm, coughing and dying in the turbid air of a wounded soldier's station.

The head of the regiment swept away the scrolls of these influences in his mind and told his son, "Come with me to the banquet." ”

"I'm not interested, Dad."

"Oh, it's to Howl's."

"When, Daddy?!"

Hal listened to Uhru's father's narration and felt as if he were listening to a myth and legend that his convoy might rest in the Elmo and return unhindered with a piece of paper; His caravan guards may have recovered their health by now under the care of the Kujits; Moreover, the Kugit were very trustworthy and were ready to buy all of Howl's stock, and were about to order more goods.

Hal became alarmed, "Sir, I have never done such a good business. If this is the case, the Kugit are the gods of the merchants. ”

"Haha", Ukhru suddenly laughed as he looked at his father, and then pointed to himself, "You don't suffer a loss for my son to be your son-in-law." ”

Uhru's heart suddenly felt like it had been smashed with a hammer, and he didn't know that his father would be so straightforward.

But this is the courage that the head of the regiment has after many years of officialdom, and after the situation is clear, he will not have too much red tape, everything will be on the facts, and he will never abuse his superfluous feelings. Especially when dealing with businessmen or officials, he never dragged his feet.

The steward stood aside, his heart fluttering. His love for Elune is definitely no less than Hal, he worked hard with Hal when he was young, and watched Hal get married and give birth to little Elune, he has long regarded Elune as his daughter. He knew who Elune liked, and when Elune came back from the banquet that day, he knew that something was wrong with Jill's side as soon as he saw that expression. But before he could figure out what to do, the Kugit struck.

Hal's mind was full of thoughts about the exchange of interests.

"Mr. Hal," said the head of the regiment, "I have heard that the credibility of your shop is already very low. And according to my inquiry, you have a debt of about 200,000 to settle. If in previous years, these debt holders are likely to delay your cashing date because of your company's good standing. But now, you know, they want to convert all your debts into dinars to avoid losses. Ukhru? ”

Hearing his father's call, Uhru came over with great obscurity, and for the first time he felt that his father's command was so firm and irrefutable.

"Open that box."

Uhru did so, and inside was a delicate linen pocket. Uhru took it. Handed over to his father, the head of the regiment opened his pocket in front of Hal like a trick, revealing rolls of bills. Those were bonds denominated at 1,000 dinars issued by the Hal family in previous years.

The head of the regiment said, "Mr. Hal, I have asked my men to buy the bonds with your company's stamp as best they can. It's about 120,000 dinars. If you don't give me the answer you want today, then I want you to help me redeem these debts, okay. You know, I'm always going to use money. Besides, those caravans of yours, there's nothing I can do about it. ”

"Well," concluded the regimental commander, "do you want a son-in-law, or a bunch of bills?" ”

Hal's sweat ran down his forehead.

"Actually····· It's really good. "Hal took Elune to the banquet just so that he could get to know more young men and marry a promising young man in an unknowable future. Now that there is such an option, is there any need to wait? It's a Kujiit, but what does it matter?

"Can I get back to you later?" Hal asked cautiously.

The head of the regiment smiled slightly, "Ukhru, show your determination. ”

Ukhru grabbed the bills and threw them into the fireplace, and a bundle of paper beeped and began to burn. Howl's debts were instantly reduced by a few thousand dinars, and as the flames spread, more of Howl's debts turned into green smoke and rose down the chimney.

The head of the regiment also made a big gamble this time, and the Ministry of Finance allocated him 700,000 dinars for procurement. He had appropriated one-seventh of his own son's happiness without permission, and if Hal didn't agree, he couldn't do anything about it. But he is not a bully, he has already found a notary public to back up these bills, and these burned the originals. If Hal doesn't want to, he can also take out the backup and continue to coerce Hal. His biggest loss was just more than 100,000 more unconvertible bonds on hand. Of course, if Hal agrees, then the debts are to be considered as a dowry.

"Think about it. I left in a week. My son will remain here for a while as an assistant to Ambassador Kugit. I wish I had seen the engagement ball before I left. Then, within half a year of my return to Kugit, I saw my son and daughter-in-law come back together. The day they return is the day your caravan departs. Ukhru's father said.

Ukhru nodded along with his father. Then walked out. His father's back was drowned in the sunlight at the doorway, and Uhru had never felt his father so tall.

Grandfather walked into the house. Jill was already waiting there.

Grandfather didn't know why Jill was in such a hurry to see him.

The weather was fine on that day, and my grandfather was thinking twice about sending my father to a military school in Parabun, where the tax collector's son could take care of him.

The first batch of grain has been transported into the city, and the managers of the various granaries have been busy collecting and sorting the grain into the warehouse during this time. Once the grain has been stored in warm warehouses, people can start buying firewood to prepare for the winter. At this time of year, firewood farmers flock to the city from the countryside from far and wide. By the way, they brought special products from all over the world in exchange for exquisite ornaments, sturdy farm tools, beautiful turbans, snow-white silk, and delicious food produced in Suno City. In those days, Suno would set aside a special trading venue, and it would be crowded with boiling water all night.

At this time, the winemakers of Suno will carefully select the grain and prepare to make fine wine. The famous "wolf shear" and barley wine are born in batches between the newly harvested grapes and malt.

Sunocheng in the sunset gives people a sense of steadiness, like a mother's embrace, anyone can sleep here peacefully until the harsh winter passes, until the spring rain comes.

Grandfather looked out the window at the scenery and looked back at Jill, and he knew that Jill would not come to him like this if it wasn't for a big deal.

"Sir, could you please lend me 100,000 dinars? I will serve you for the rest of my life. Please help me! My Elune is going to be taken away. ”
