Mystery: The arrival of the new Black Emperor

Chapter 351 About Hobert’s “miracle”

After entering Full Moon Lake, Wayne immediately turned the wheel and drove along the shallows of the lake. According to him, if he passed through the middle of the lake, something terrible would happen.

Be careful when walking in the shallows, as you may "hit the bottom" if you are not careful.

Wayne slowed the boat, steered it carefully, and shouted to Schiel, "Go get the sheep!"

Hobert took the opportunity to ask the question in his mind: "Why is there a live sheep on board?"

Wayne looked ahead intently and said: "If you encounter a monster in the lake in the shallows, it will probably knock the boat over or overturn it. As soon as you see the trace of the monster, throw the sheep into the lake so that they will patronize you." If you eat sheep, you won’t care about us.”

Hobert nodded. It sounded like it was more dangerous to run a boat here than on the sea.

"Weird, weird, monster!" Schier exclaimed, pointing to the center of the lake.

Wayne yelled: "We are not blind! You stupid son of a bitch... kill the sheep!"

There were a few curse words in between, again beyond Hobert's comprehension.

He looked toward the center of the lake. On the slightly rippled screen, there was indeed a huge thing rushing towards this side.

The monster looks like a large crocodile, but it has a head similar to that of a carp, has scales on its body, and seems to have strong limbs.

Sil's hand holding the knife was trembling so much that he couldn't find the big blood vessel in the goat's neck after killing it twice, which made the goat want to cry.

"Why are you trembling!" Wayne rushed out of the cab and was about to grab the knife and kill himself.

At this time, Hobert, who had been standing on the deck, suddenly said: "No need to kill, the monster has wandered away."

He concluded in his mind: Monsters have very low intelligence and can easily distort their goals and intentions.

Dang rang~

The knife used to kill the sheep fell to the ground, and Wayne fell to his knees: "Dear Sir, you are truly the favored one of the Mother Goddess! Even monsters avoid you."

He has encountered monsters in the lake many times, and has never encountered a monster that suddenly left during the hunt.

Wayne grabbed Seal and asked him to kneel down: "You should still be short of a manservant. My nephew is quite agile and diligent. Let him be your manservant."

The well-informed Wayne knew that he had met a noble man. Unfortunately, he only had two daughters. If he had a son, he would immediately let him work as a manservant for this noble man.

Hobert asked Schier who was kneeling on the ground after realizing it: "Are you willing to be my servant?"

"Beloved by God! I am willing, I am willing to follow you and serve you all the time." Sil said excitedly.

Hobert nodded: "The first two months are a probation period. During the probation period, you will receive 3 silver ropes per week. After that, your salary will be increased based on your performance. Also, call me Lord or Lord."

This salary is only about 5.5 soles per week, but in this remote place, there is no place to spend money. 3 silver soles is the salary of Schill as a helper on Wayne's boat. It is said that this is the highest salary in Wright Town.

When Wayne saw that the lord had accepted Siel, he happily went back to sail the boat.

After landing on the dilapidated pier, Hobert looked around. Sure enough, many fertile fields by the river were covered with reeds.

Siel simply packed up, then helped Hobert carry his bag and went to the Viscount's Mansion.

Passing through a reed swamp, we gradually met some small town residents working in the fields. Everyone saw a well-dressed stranger coming and gathered around to ask who Sirna was.

The accents of these residents were somewhat local dialects, and Hobert had to listen carefully to understand what they were saying.

Siel puffed out his chest and said, "This is our new lord, a favored one from God. From now on, our place will be renamed Jeffrey Town!"

Everyone was a little surprised. Like the surrounding territories, once there was no lord, there was no new lord. Some places had not had a lord for more than fifty years.

Hobert did not object to Schill calling him a "god's favored one". He just learned from Schill that when Viscount Wright was alive, there was a school in the town, but now, the school has been abandoned for several years.

In such a territory, the title "God's Favorite" is far more useful than "Lord".

Silr felt a little regretful and had to follow the lord, otherwise he would have to brag about the "miracle" he just encountered in the lake.

Ever since Viscount Wright's family was killed, there had been no owner there. When Hobert opened the door and walked in, it felt like he had entered a haunted house.

Facing the overgrown house, Hobert ordered: "Go and clean up a room. I will stay there tonight."

Siel put down Hobert's bag and immediately went to find a room with doors and windows. The furniture inside was long gone. Siel went to the well in the backyard to get a few buckets of water and cleaned the room first.

Then he came out and asked: "Sir, Ted, the old carpenter in the town, sells furniture. Would you like to buy some furniture for you?"

Hobert nodded: "A bed, a desk, and a chair. Let him deliver them and I'll pay for them."

Seale was very agile and quickly returned with several people carrying a few pieces of furniture, and also gave Hobert new quilts, pillows and other practical items on credit.

At the same time, a man in his thirties who looked very alert also followed.

This man was dressed appropriately. He took off his somewhat shabby but clean top hat and said respectfully: "Dear Sir, I am York. I heard from Schier, do you intend to hire me as your butler?"

"That's right." Hobert was very satisfied with Schier, the valet: "The probation period is two months, and the weekly salary during the probation period is 5 silver ropes. After two months, the new weekly salary will be determined based on your ability."

York was overjoyed: "My noble lord, I am happy to serve you."

Hobert threw him a money bag: "From now on, you will be the housekeeper. There are 80 silver ropes in it. Pay the bill first. From now on, you will be responsible for the expenses of the house. Show me the account book every week." .”

When he exchanged gold lisso before, he exchanged two bags of 1 silver cord coins. After these few days of travel, he discovered that silver cords were indeed the most used currency.

The people around him, including York, were stunned for a second or two. In this remote place, 80 silver cords was a huge sum of money.

While everyone lamented the new lord's wealth, they quickly got busy.

York suggested to Hobert that tomorrow he would hire two or three male servants and a cook, and then prepare to repair the mansion.

Hobert nodded in agreement one by one.

In the evening, Hobert asked Schier to go to the town to buy some food, and he just dealt with it casually for dinner.

York and Shear had nowhere to live in the "Lord's Mansion", so after Shear boiled water for Hobert's feet, the two of them left the Lord's Mansion and returned to their own homes.

After nightfall, there were no lights in the town. After making sure that no one was outside, York left his yard with a bag and went straight to the dock.

When we came to the wooden dock, we found that Wayne's boat had lights on, and that couldn't be better!

Jumping onto the boat, York pulled out his dagger and pointed at Wayne, who was busy in the cabin: "Take me to Bugas City, quickly! Or I'll kill you!"
