Chapter 808 Request from Larel 39
Jerome looked at the bag of gold coins in front of him, feeling infinite humiliation in his heart.
"You see, you don't even know if those friends from far away will come to visit you. Anyone can find out where the famous Mr. Jerome lives. You can't avoid those warm old friends." Larel's words
The smile was stiff and hypocritical: "If you continue to live here, you may not even be able to keep your last residence. So, why not sell it and move to another city?"
But Jerome didn't want to.
He is a well-known super jockey, and he receives generous remuneration every year. Even if the Fairlade family no longer hires him, he can still participate in small-scale horse racing to earn remuneration. Once he leaves Ferro City, he
What else can be done?
But if he really stayed, Jerome would probably have to face the menacing creditors as Larel said.
He could no longer afford the money to repay those gambling debts and the miraculous interest increases.
and……
Jerome looked at the shivering flamingo with great resentment, "This loser refuses to jump now, it simply refuses to run, and his backup horse can't make it to the big event."
Jerome once thought about replacing the Flamingos.
It's a pity that he and Flamingo have a bad reputation as "withered roses" and no one dares to use him. Naturally, Flamingo can only be sold at a ridiculous price.
One side was selling at a low price, and the other was buying at a high price. Jerome simply could not afford the gold coins to buy the horses.
At this moment, the bag of gold coins in front of me was more attractive than ever before.
His house and the remaining land could only be sold for about 150 gold coins at most.
Larer agreed to offer two hundred gold coins, which was indeed the highest price currently as he said.
"Okay, but if the housing management office refuses to sell the house to someone of your status, I will also take half of these gold coins as compensation."
The current state of Newward prohibits the sale and purchase of any real estate to Aboriginal people.
Jerome thought that if half of the two hundred gold coins were deducted, he would sell the two horses he owned together, and maybe ask the horseman Hamarai to help him choose another good horse.
At that time, he can rent a smaller house near the racecourse and start over.
Jerome believes that as long as he can still compete, he will definitely make a comeback.
To his disappointment, the housing management office went through the transfer procedures for them without saying anything. When Jerome took the bag containing two hundred gold coins in his hand, he didn't want to believe that he had turned into a monster again.
Shellless snail.
Of course, traveling with him were his two horses.
Jerome dragged his heavy suitcase onto his horse and left Layard Manor, which had been divided up by the creditors in his hometown until only the main building and more than ten acres of fields were left. He turned back and took a deep look at the entire house.
It was the building that had been with him for ten years, and standing at the gate was the breeder who had been with him for ten years and... that familiar horse.
Under the setting sun, the unicorn with a mane as pure as snow and as black as ink made Jerome feel in a trance for a while. This horse really looked like his unicorn.
If the unicorn's legs continued, would he still be the glorious jockey Jerome?
He even felt that as long as he walked back, it would still be his home, his horse and his slaves.
Johannes, who had changed his master again, looked at Jerome pitifully, his eyes full of pleading.
He once ridiculed Larel, framed him, and even hunted him down with those people, but now the former breeder of Layard Manor has become the owner of the current breeder.
How will he continue in the next days?
Will Larel kill him?
After all, he didn't have the ability to run out, and he couldn't beg the gentlemen and ladies who were willing to give him ten gold coins in exchange for his freedom.
Seeing Jerome carrying Johannes and kneeling on the ground with a "pop", he knelt down to Larel with the most respected gift of his tribe: "Please forgive me, this stupid slave, please forgive me!"
His voice was trembling, and he almost cried.
"The camel that worked hard through the desert was resting. A fly flew over and said, you were so tired that you were half dead before walking out of the desert, but I can do it effortlessly just lying on your body. The camel told the fly, you are nothing to me.
Any harm or value, I don’t know your existence at all, and I don’t care about your existence.”
There was no sarcasm or condescension in his eyes, but his words were like slaps on Johannes' face.
"He must be trying to highlight his status as a winner, but actually he feels extremely happy."
The lonely Johannes stood up and returned to the stable.
Since Larel likes to pretend to be a good guy, he can continue to eat and drink here and be a breeder. Anyway, the flamingo left and a fake unicorn came back.
It's a pity that the unicorn snorted and spit on his face. Then he turned around and let out a series of fierce "puff puffs". After Jerome, Johannes also got the "good taste" gift package from the unicorn.
one.
Johannes tried a few more times, but each time he was hit by a big gift bag and left the stable with a pale face.
Everyone in the small manor was repeating their own tasks, except Johannes, who had nothing to do, because as long as he was near the unicorn, the beast's duet would play for him alone.
The original large fields have been divided up by others, and the remaining ten acres are only planted with turf for the owners to walk their horses. Therefore, everyone cherishes their position and is deeply afraid of Larrey, who was born as a slave.
I'll be "layoffed" and I don't know where I'll be sold.
As a result, Johannes became more and more frightened.
Finally, on the third day, he took the initiative to see Larel.
"Master, please arrange my work. Your slave Johannes is willing to do anything for you."
He Xiaoman looked at him with a half-smile but not a smile. Sure enough, people who are good at flattering always know how to survive.
Her story is not in vain.
"Take Jerome to the largest casino in Ferro City, and tell the people in the casino that he has at least more than two hundred gold coins. When Jerome loses all his belongings, I will give you the freedom issued by the Governor's Palace.
Human Seal."
He Xiaoman can end Jerome's life at will. There are no surveillance cameras and electronic eyes all over the city, and there are no endless criminal investigation equipment. The death of Jerome is not much different from the death of a toad.
But He Xiaoman always remembered that killing Jerome was not included in the task given by Larel.
In the evening, Johannes came back. There was obviously a trace of pride in his expression, but when he saw He Xiaoman's cold eyes, the pride disappeared instantly.
