Before Bella could take two steps, she was caught by May's slave. No matter how hard she struggled, she could not escape from the slave's grasp.
Had went through a lot of hardships and finally saw the smiles of his family members. Before they bloomed on his face, they disappeared instantly. With a gloomy face, he stared at Mei and asked sternly: "Mei
Yi! What do you want to do?"
May had completely lost her temper and completely ignored Harold's kindness to him in the past. In his opinion, the benefits he had received from Harold in the past were all obtained by his humility.
Harold paid his money in exchange for his humility and respect. Everyone traded fairly and no one owed anything to anyone.
And now Bella owed him, so it was impossible to just leave like this.
Mei raised her head and said, "Bella and her children are my slaves. You want to take them away like this, isn't it that easy?"
Harold's eyes widened in shock, looking at May in disbelief, and then turned his attention to Bella. Seeing Bella nodding towards Harold with a bitter look on her face, the anger in his chest suddenly surged.
. shouted loudly: "Mei, Bella is your biological sister, and you actually let her sell herself into slavery. Are you still a human being?"
Mei took out a slave contract and said with an indifferent expression, "Bella signed it with her own name. You can ask her, did I force her when signing?"
Hader was furious, but couldn't find any place to vent. He stared at May, who looked businesslike, for a moment, then suddenly laughed and said, "Okay, what do you want to do?"
Mei Yi's face stiffened for a moment, he really hadn't thought about what to do.
But Hader didn't want to have any more entanglements with people like Mei, and said directly: "Since they are slaves, can I redeem them from you? You can tell me how much you want."
Mei held the contract in her hand and said with her head held high, "What if I don't want to?"
Hader laughed softly and raised the revolver in his hand, "Then I will have to duel with you. I will use all my current wealth as a bet to duel with you. If you win, all my wealth will be yours.
How about all your wealth that I won is mine, including all your slaves?"
Being threatened by Harold with a duel again, May was naturally very angry, but he still did not dare to duel with Harold.
After laughing a few times, May thought she had eased the atmosphere, and said to Harold in a kind tone: "Bella is my sister, and I don't want to see her become a slave. When my sister came to seek refuge with me, she was originally
I want to leave because I think that my sister is alone with two children, penniless and helpless, so I let her
Sign the contract so that you can stay with me. Now that you want to take them away, I won't stop you."
Hader had already seen Mei Yi's shameless face and was not willing to listen to what he had to say. He said directly: "How much money do you want, just tell me."
May held out a finger and said, "One thousand gold coins. As long as you take out one thousand gold coins now, I will let them go." May stared at Harold with a smile on her face and looked at his face carefully.
Changes in expression.
He was testing whether Harold had gone bankrupt and became a pauper, or whether he had really made a fortune. Harold was going to the East for business. If his goods had not been robbed by pirates, it would be a waste to take out a thousand gold coins.
easy.
If Harold can come up with a thousand gold coins, then of course May will abide by the agreement and return Bella and others to him. Because Harold, who is rich, has many connections in Hulumos, and he is not May.
A rich country man can afford to offend me. But if Harold can't even get out a thousand gold coins, it means that he is really bankrupt and has become a pauper, and then Mey has nothing to be afraid of.
.
"A thousand gold coins! Mei, you are shameless! When little Hassan was sick, you spent ten silver coins to treat him, and now you want a thousand gold coins!" After hearing this, Bella immediately turned towards Mei
Yi cursed loudly.
Only then did Hader realize that why Bella signed the slave contract in the first place, it was to treat little Hassan. As Bella's younger brother, May actually took advantage of little Hassan's illness to force them to sign the contract.
, simply shameless.
But now Harder has no time to settle accounts with Mei, and directly said: "A thousand gold coins, right? Okay, I'll give it to you."
Although Hader promised, he couldn't even get out a single gold coin, let alone a thousand gold coins.
So he turned around and bowed to Han Du, and said, "Please, Lord Marquis, lend Hard fifty gold ingots."
Han Du nodded, borrowing some money was certainly nothing. He waved his hand and asked someone to give Hard fifty gold ingots, and asked with a smile: "Is fifty enough?"
"That's enough." Hade nodded to Handu with a grateful face.
After getting the gold ingots, Hader turned around and placed the box containing the gold ingots in front of May, staring at him with burning eyes.
"Fifty gold ingots are more than the thousand gold coins you want, let him go!"
May originally
He wanted to test Harold with a thousand gold coins, but now Harold took out the gold ingot, but he happened to borrow it from others on the spot. In this way, Mei couldn't figure it out.
Did Lorde get rich or become pauper?
However, after taking a look at Han Du and others, I couldn't decide what relationship these people had with Harold. After thinking about it for a while, Mei decided to accept the gold ingot.
"Well, since you can give gold coins, then take them away."
Mei turned back and waved her hand towards the slaves, signaling them to let go.
As soon as Bella was freed from the shackles of the slave, she immediately grabbed a child with one hand and ran all the way to Hard. With tears of joy, she hugged Hard's neck tightly and greedily smelled his scent.
"They all said you were dead, but I didn't expect you to be alive. It's great."
"Of course I'm still alive." Hader also patted Bella on the back and comforted her for a moment.
Looking down at the two children staring at him with dull eyes, Harder was in a very good mood. He touched the heads of the two children and laughed loudly, "Bella, you take good care of the children." ??
Bella's eyes were red, and she nodded towards Hader with a relaxed expression.
Hader comforted his family, looked up at May, and said nothing. He took the hands of Bella and the two children, turned around, and whispered: "Let's go, never come here again."
"Hmm~" Bella looked back at Mei. There was no longer the fondness in her eyes, only unforgettable hatred. But that was her biological brother after all. Since Harold didn't say anything, she didn't either.
He would want to settle a score with Mei. But from then on, the relationship between brother and sister was severed.
May watched Harold take the man away without saying anything.
Hader came to Zhu Biao with an apology, lowered his head and said: "Your Highness, I asked Your Highness and the Marquis to accompany Hader on a trip, but now we don't even have a place to rest."
Zhu Biao glanced at Han Du.
Han Du waved his hand and said with a smile: "It doesn't matter, what are your plans next?"
Hard sighed and said: "Go back to Horumos first. Hard's original manor can't be taken back. But it doesn't matter. Hard can still go to the city lord's mansion to look for it and buy a new manor. But in the past few days,
I’m going to wrong everyone.”
Handu glanced at Hader and didn't care about his apology. He looked up at Mei in the distance and asked, "Then let's go back to Hurumos now?
"
Hader looked up at the sun that was about to set, and hesitated: "If we go back to Horumos now, I'm afraid we'll have to spend the night in the wild halfway through. But even if we don't go back today, there's not enough room for us to stay nearby.
place"
Han Du turned his head and looked at Zhu Biao.
Zhu Biao smiled and waved his hand, "It doesn't matter. I also marched and fought with my father. What kind of dining style have you not seen while sleeping in the open?"
Since Zhu Biao had no objection, Han Du nodded and agreed to Hader, "Okay, let's go back to Horumos now."
The group of people left here, and Harder and his wife did not even look back when they left. Obviously this place had broken their hearts, and they never wanted to look back.
Halfway through, darkness fell completely.
The group of people had to stop and wait for the night to pass before rushing back to Horumos tomorrow.
Bella's life was not good during this period. Even the food was bitter and astringent black bread, and she was often hungry. Therefore, even the dry food provided by the Qin army, she ate with relish.
After eating, Bella had the energy to care about the identity of these people. These people looked like outsiders she had never seen before, but only because Harold was there, she would follow. Otherwise, just
When she saw these outsiders, she had already fled far away.
Now, she finally asked her doubts, "Who are they?"
When Hader saw Bella asking about it, he put down the food and water in his hands and sighed: "They are my benefactors and my masters."
"Master?" Bella was forced by her younger brother to sign a slave contract. As soon as she heard these two words, she couldn't help feeling fearful.
He asked Harold with some despair: "Have you also signed a slave contract with them?"
Seeing Bella's misunderstanding, Hader quickly waved his hand and explained: "No, it's not what you think. I'm not a slave, I'm a free person."
Seeing that Bella was still a little confused, Hader said, "Have you heard that my ship was robbed by pirates?"
Bella nodded repeatedly.
"The news you heard is true. My ship was indeed robbed by pirates. Even I became a prisoner of pirates." Harder sighed with some memories: "Fortunately
, and then I met them. Not only did they save my life, they also defeated the pirates, took back all my goods, and gave them back to me."
