Wizard: I crush the legend with my martial arts

Chapter 22 Creditors come to visit
  Early the next morning, Mia knocked on the door.

Alphonse sat up and stretched.

There was still thunderous snoring in the room, and Taixi slept soundly.

As expected, low-level Dou Qi cannot form a protective force, and it is not as good as the internal Qi Zhenqi. It can form a cycle of its own and attack the blocked acupuncture points. Once it is knocked down, it has no ability to resist.

Alphonse got out of bed, stepped forward, and with his fingers, he untied Tessie's acupuncture points and slapped him awake.

Tessie sat up suddenly, with an expression on her face that showed who I was and where I was, confused and at a loss.

He really couldn't believe how he suddenly fell asleep all night after being tapped on the body by the weak-looking owner last night.

Alphonse washed up hurriedly, then asked Tessie to carry the big bag of herbs and walked downstairs.

Mia has finished settling the account, and even called the carriage to transport the goods.

It's just that her mental state is not very good, her big bright eyes are slightly swollen, and there are faint dark circles under her eyes.

"You didn't sleep all night?"

"Can't sleep!" Mia said with a grumpy face, "I just stayed up all night, it's no problem, just go back and sleep again, let's go!"

Alphonse didn't even expect that Mia would stay up all night looking at the cash box, which was too cautious.

After everything was ready, Alphonse no longer stayed in Lane City. He ordered Tessie to take care of the precious herbs in the carriage, then he got on the horse and rode out with Mia and the carriage.

gallop all the way.

Sitting in the carriage, Taixi was in a trance. For him, this was a foreign land, and the scenery was nothing interesting.

This master seemed a little different from the nobles he had seen before.

He obviously didn't know how to blacksmith or explore for mineral veins, but he still bought it.

I thought that when I became a slave, I would be treated harshly, but unexpectedly, I was provided with good food and drink, and even let myself sleep in his room.

What is this for?
  There is such a powerful female knight beside him, is it necessary to make all kinds of gestures to recruit me? The slave contract I entered into made it impossible for me to refuse his orders.

However, losing her freedom still made Tessie feel very unhappy.

Humans are cunning and cannot be trusted easily, especially nobles!

I was lucky on this trip. I didn't encounter any bandits or anything, so it was uneventful.

The carriage finally moved slower, and towards dusk, it returned to the Cold Wind Territory.

As soon as they arrived outside the castle gate, the guard guarding the gate hurriedly ran over, "Master, at noon, a businessman came and said that the lord owed him money and he came to collect the debt. Captain Simon is entertaining him now. , I’ve been waiting all afternoon.”

What a coincidence that I just went to sell the formula and the creditor came to my door?

Gee!
  Alphonse jumped off his horse, turned to Mia and said, "Mia, I'm going to see what's going on. Ask Tessie to help me deliver the herbs to my room. Don't damage them."

After saying that, without waiting for Mia to agree, she strode into the castle.

They were still some distance away from the living room when they heard shouting coming from inside.

A high-pitched voice was yelling, "How long do I have to wait? I've been waiting all day! Do you know how precious my time is? How much money will I make if I waste this day?" "Speak. Ah! Are you mute?"

Just listen to Captain Simon's obedient reply, "I'm really sorry, please wait a little longer. Our young master will come back later. How about you come back tomorrow?"

"Do you think I am free every day? I come here every day to pay for this debt." The owner of the voice snorted, "If you really have no money, I will give you a way!"

"You still have a lot of young and lovely girls in the Cold Wind Territory. As long as your guards are dispatched, capture them all and sell them to a good place, in a few years, the debt will be paid off."

As he said that, the man laughed sinisterly, "How about it? This is good for everyone, and those civilians don't dare to resist."

"How can this be done!" Captain Simon's voice suddenly became louder, "We will never do such a thing!"

"This won't work, that won't work. The Baroness doesn't dare to come out to see me. Is your young master avoiding me on purpose?"

Alphonse happened to walk to the door. Hearing what the man said was already quite unpleasant, and he immediately shouted back, "Why should I avoid you? I only owe you money, not my life!"

In the modern society of the previous life, it was the uncle who owed money.

"Master!" Captain Simon stood up in surprise, and then showed a troubled look.

What will happen if the young master comes back?

It’s not that I can’t get the money to pay back, but this is a deadlock. What should I do?
  "What do you say? Is this your attitude towards creditors?"

Alphonse glanced at the fat man sitting on the sofa. He was dressed quite luxuriously. The black coat was either fox fur or mink. There was a ring of fluffy and delicate hair on the collar, and a small velvet headband. There was also a white feather inserted into the hat, and even the shirt underneath was embroidered with gold-rimmed patterns.

Even though he was covered in fat, there were several bulges, and his appearance was a bit vulgar, with small sharp eyes, plump cheeks, and two rat whiskers. The collar could not cover his loose and drooping chin.

Although they are both fat, the slave merchant Warren's appearance is much better than his.

The guard he brought with him looked quite tough, tall and muscular, with a rough look on his face.

Alphonse sat down on the sofa next to Captain Simon and looked directly at the fat man, "That's the three thousand gold coins, right? I only found out in the past two days that my father still owed this debt, even though he has passed away But I won’t default on the debt and I will repay this debt.”

"Hmph!" The fat man snorted, and the fat on his face trembled, "It's more than three thousand gold coins. Your father promised me that I will pay back the loan after one year, plus interest, for a total of three thousand and five gold coins. One hundred and forty gold coins!”

Alphonse was startled and couldn't help but frowned.

The interest rate is a bit high!
  "We have no money for the time being. I hope you can extend it for another month."

Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by the fat man, "You have no money this month, but next month you can earn three thousand gold coins? Let me tell you, you must find a way to pay back the money today, or you can just give this money The castle is mortgaged and sold for money, otherwise you will listen to me."

He was frothing at the mouth and scolding Alphonse, but his voice gradually became lower.

Alphonse stared into his eyes tightly and continued, "I can manage to come up with so much money this month, but it will be different next month, as long as you are willing to wait. "

The words were not only slow, but also had an accent with a strange rhythm.

Captain Simon was shocked to find that the fat man had a confused look on his fat face, and even the bodyguard standing behind the sofa was staring closely at the young master.

How is this going?
