Chapter 13 Epilogue-1

After that, it can be said to be very busy. First of all, I washed the dirty clothes stained with blood and mud at the Remario Company, and while using the stove to dry the clothes, I put on the borrowed clothes and went straight to the Ron Merchant Guild with the IOU.Because Holo said she was hungry, they broke up with her in front of the all-night bar.Presumably Holo meant "to take care of the aftermath myself". As soon as Lawrence entered the foreign firm, the fellow townspeople who were drinking and having fun at the end of today's business all welcomed him warmly. The wound on Lawrence's face attracted everyone After a burst of cynicism and sarcasm to investigate the reason, he finally came to Ye Kebai.

After waiting for a long time, I didn't see the men of Remario Company who should have come to collect debts, and I didn't see the figure of Lawrence who caused trouble. In addition, Lawrence complained about borrowing money everywhere. Yekebo was so angry that he wanted to tear Lawrence into pieces. As expected, when Yekebo saw Lawrence, he punched Lawrence on the head with his fist angrily. Then Yekebo couldn't hold back his face, weeping with joy, he opened his arms to express his joy for Lawrence's safety. Next, Lawrence handed over the IOU to Ye Kebo, and after saying some words implying the smuggling of gold, Ye Kebo seemed to understand the general process of the matter.While laughing, he took out a bag containing Lumioni gold coins, which is rarely seen, from the back of the foreign company, and bought the IOU with cash on the spot.

However, Ye Kebo is an experienced businessman.In consideration of the possibility of smuggling failure, Ye Kebo used Remario's When the uncollected money and assets such as land and housing were liquidated, he bought the receipt for the amount he could get back.Generally speaking, when liquidating the property of a bankrupt commercial firm, the amount that creditors can distribute is based on the proportion of their creditor's rights.Therefore, when the smuggling of gold failed, even if the Remario Trading Company declared bankruptcy, the five hundred Lumione IOUs would not become waste paper on the spot.The point is that Yekerber bought the IOU for an amount that balanced the risk of smuggling.

After considering these possibilities, Ye Kebo temporarily paid 30 Lumiones under a fairly loose standard. If the smuggling is successful, Ye Kebo promised Lawrence that he would pay an additional one hundred Lumiones.Although this amount is much less than the face value of the IOU, after the resurgence of Remario Trading Company, it is very likely that it will go bankrupt before the ten-year deadline expires.Therefore, this amount is considered a reasonable price. Lawrence took out twenty Lumiones from the cash he had received and handed them over to Ye Kebo, in order to beg Ye Kebo to forgive him for causing the commotion and damage the reputation of the Ron Commercial Union.The rest of the cash Lawrence intends to use to pay for space rentals for the dissection of the sheep and cover fees.

In this way, assuming the smuggling of gold is successful, Lawrence will have to spend 20 Lumiones from the additional 100 Lumiones to pay Nora. Repay the money and apologize one by one.Assuming it had to cost thirty Lumiones, he would have fifty Lumiones left on hand. In this way, we can finally return to the same situation as when we went to Porosun to sell pepper. At one point, Lawrence was even mentally prepared to board a slave ship, so such a result could only be described as a miracle. After that, Lawrence found a tight-lipped and reliable butcher shop through the introduction of fellow villagers in the guild. He paid the butcher shop ten Lumiones as salary, and asked the butcher shop to promise to accept it from Noela. After the sheep, I am willing to help dissect the sheep without asking more questions.With such high wages at the butcher shop, they must not ask too many questions and let things run smoothly.

After completing these preparations, Lawrence asked Remario to bring back his subordinates who were trembling in the cold wind, and reminded them not to talk too much. : At the same time, he also ordered Remario to bring back the horse he had almost forgotten.Because Lawrence's tone was quite severe, Remario should take immediate action. By the time Lawrence finished all the preparations, it was dawn. Because yesterday's rain made the morning air extraordinarily cold, Lawrence walked quietly on the road alone. The place Lawrence was going to was the bar that was able to stay open all night because he bribed the dignitaries in the city.

Under the streetscape shrouded in the unique blue-and-white color of dawn, Lawrence saw the lighted bar, which looked out of place. "welcome." The voices coming from the store sound lazy, but it doesn't seem to be because this is an illegal bar.It must be purely because of staying up late, so I want to sleep. There were about 50% of the customers in the store, and everyone seemed to be drinking quietly as if they were sad because the night was over, so the store was eerily quiet. "You." As soon as Lawrence looked in the direction of the sound, he found that Holo had been standing beside him with a small bucket and bread at some point.If Holo, dressed as a city girl, appeared in an all-night bar and was discovered by the clergy, it would definitely cause a big problem that was difficult to deal with; but judging from the reactions of the surrounding guests who didn't care much, it seems that this kind of thing happens occasionally occur.

After Holo winked at the boss in the bar, the sleepy boss immediately smiled and waved.Maybe the product Holo was holding was something she said cleverly, and maybe it was a treat for the boss. "You, let's go." Lawrence planned to sit for a while longer to rest, but Holo forcefully pulled him away. "welcome again." Hearing the voice from behind, he walked out of the bar.Since there was no destination to go to, he walked on the road. It's cold outside.Because the humidity is also very heavy, the breath that spits out cannot be dissipated for a long time. "Here, you, bread."

Hearing what Holo said, Lawrence realized that he hadn't eaten anything since noon yesterday. Perhaps it was for this reason that his stomach suddenly growled.Lawrence took the bread with vegetables and bacon from Holo, who was smiling happily, and took a big bite out of politeness. "and this." As soon as Lawrence took the small bucket that Holo's small hand could handle, he found that the small bucket was slightly hot.After taking a sip from the cork, he found that the barrel contained a hot drink of mead and milk. "Quite clever." There is nothing better than a piping hot mulled wine.

"Then, you." Although Holo probably didn't intend to let someone eat some delicious food to relax the other party's tone; but after Lawrence ate for a while, Holo really spoke. "We have two things to ask you." Lawrence braced himself for Holo's questioning. After a while, Holo asked without looking at Lawrence, "How much do you trust that girl?" Lawrence vaguely expected Holo to raise such a question. However, the question itself did not clearly indicate when, where, and under what circumstances. It can be seen that in Holo's mind, this may also be an unclear question.

Lawrence took a sip of the rum, and replied without looking at Holo, "I don't know how much I trust her. But even if Nora just took the gold and fled somewhere else, we can easily I did not trust her enough to give her the gold when I expected this to happen.” Holo was silent. "If you don't bring the gold to a very far place, the gold can't be sold at all. Moreover, the shepherdess sells the gold without a way. Such a rare thing will spread quickly, and we can easily track it down. her." What Lawrence was sure of was that he didn't trust Nuo'ergu from the bottom of his heart.Because of the nature of a businessman, Lawrence couldn't stop thinking about what might happen. "Really? Well, it's almost like this." "What about the other thing?" Hearing Lawrence's initiative to ask this question, Holo looked at Lawrence with emotionless eyes. Holo's eyes should not be angry, she should be confused. But, what was Holo confused about?This made Lawrence feel more concerned. Lawrence didn't think there would be any question that Holo didn't know how to ask. "No matter what you ask me, I will answer, this time I owe you a super big favor." Lawrence took a bite of the bread that had become cold after a short time, took another sip of wine, and swallowed it together with the bread. The golden sun in the morning began to shine on the stone road shrouded in the blue-white air of dawn. "Aren't you going to ask?"
