Chapter 173
Hai Xin and his party and a dozen villagers decided to return to Sliron Town first, while Earl Edmund and the Imperial Army camped in the distance in order not to disturb the villagers.
When Haixin walked to the entrance of the village, she saw a group of people quarreling for something. When she approached Houhaixin, she recognized it. It turned out that it was the tax collector who ruled the village.
At this time, he was taking his men to compete with several old men for a cart of furniture. One of the old men grabbed the railing and refused to let go. Luce went up and kicked him, kicking the old man to the ground and shouting.
At this time, one of the rescued villagers suddenly ran towards the old man and shouted: "You dog official! Why do you beat my father!"
Seeing the middle-aged man scolding him, Les stretched out his foot to kick him. Haixin couldn't see it anymore. He ran over and punched Les to the ground, and gave him a big mouth. This made Les stunned. Since he became a tax collector, no one has dared to touch a hair.
After a few seconds, Luce woke up, and then he jumped up from the ground like a grasshopper. He pointed at Haixin with his trembling fingers and shouted: "Bold pariah! How dare he attack the officials, brothers! This is a thug! Hurry up and arrest me! No! Hurry up and fight back! Fight back to death!!"
"Okay! You bully people with your power! Don't go! Let me do it myself, I want to fight ten of them alone!" Hai Xin rolled up her sleeves and prepared to do a big fight.
On this side, before Hai Xin and the others could take action, Jimmy and the rescued villagers rushed forward first. If you dare to beat their savior, you have to pass their hurdle first. On weekdays, the villagers have long disliked Luce, and just seized the opportunity to vent their anger.
When he was young, Luce and his men were all knocked to the ground. Luce raised his head, which was beaten like a pig's head, and said viciously: "You mobs! You are finished! You dare to assault the officials! You are waiting to be arrested!"
Hai Xin ignored the pig head, but walked to the old man. He stretched out his hand and asked, "Old man, how are you doing? Are I helping you? Or don't help you?"
The old man looked at Hai Xin and said with emotion: "Oh! Young man, thank you. There are not many good people like you in this world. You are so kind by nature, so you don't need to help me. I can hold on for a while."
“…”
After saying that, the old man turned his head and came back towards his missing son. He was so excited that he burst into tears. He grabbed Hai Xin's hand and said, "It's hard to describe it, child! Thank you."
Then he turned to his missing son and said, "You stupid son! Why don't you help me up quickly! Oh, my god! You are still alive! I thought I would never see you again... Woo woo..."
The old man slowly stood up with his son's help, and he continued, "You don't know. This Luce specifically seeks bullying people like us who have been arrested and strong. He asked us to pay taxes. If we don't pay this tax, we will use our property to mortgage it. How can we live... Wooh..."
Haixin was furious when she heard this. He kicked Les and said angrily: "You are really a dog official! You will bully the old, weak, and young!"
Luce suppressed his hatred and said, "Hmph! You are a foreigner! Just by you? You don't have the power to manage our officials yet, are you?"
At this time, Leo, who was with Haixin and his team, stood up and said to Jimmy with a gloomy expression: "Jimmy! This person said Haixin has no power to care about him? Go outside the village and call Earl Edmund and ask him to write a letter of appointment."
"Just say, I want to appoint Haixin as the imperial envoy! I want him to know whether Haixin has the power to take care of it!"
Shocked... horrified...
"Imperial Commander?!" Everyone on the side was inexplicably shocked...
"Imperial Commander?!" But Luce, who was sitting on the ground, felt cold on his back and fell into panic...
…………
The small town of Sliron is more lively than the grandest festival of their Caesar Empire, the Triumph Festival.
This is not only because their relatives were rescued, but also because they finally got rid of the cannibal fox who came to catch people every now and then, but also because they were dismissed from office and investigated.
What is even more rare is that His Highness, the Third Prince of the Empire and the famous Edmund, would actually come here with condescendingly. This is the most noble and famous figure in their village since its establishment, which is enough to make the villagers of the entire Slilon town proud for their whole life.
Most of the villagers in the town of Sliron thought that it was the prince and the imperial army who saved them. Under the leadership of the mayor, the villagers took out the best food and wine from the house to entertain the soldiers, and they served them as if they were serving the gods.
But only a few people who know the inside story know that the biggest contribution of this is the young men from the Western Continent who are new to the arrival and unknown.
Jimmy and the rescued villagers knew about it. They wanted to make it clear to the villagers, but Haixin stopped him. Jimmy took out the gold coins and gave it to Haixin. Before Haixin could refuse, she was taken down by Eunta and threw it back.
Eunta looked at Jimmy with a surprised expression and said, "We don't save you because we are not greedy for money, we don't care about gratitude or reputation, but for your mother, Aunt Alva, I hope you... don't make her sad again in the future..."
After saying these words, Eunta turned to look at Haixin and the others, and was ashamed of his own actions. However, Haixin, Paruth and Frank all smiled and nodded at the same time. Eunta breathed a sigh of relief and felt relieved.
"Well! Hum, don't worry! I will never forget every word you said to me." Jimmy was very grateful to this honest boy who was not as old as him. If he hadn't woken up, he wouldn't have understood that his mother had given so much for him.
"Thank you for yours. If it weren't for you, Jimmy wouldn't have returned to me now. I, Alva, really can't repay you for your kindness."
Alva grabbed Paruth and Eunta's hands and cried bitterly. When Jimmy came back and knelt in front of her and cried and said she must be filial to her, she thought it was a dream.
She couldn't believe that it was true. Her son never treated her like this before, and they had never been so close. Thanks to them all for thanking them.
"My mother is right. You have found me back from the lost path and made me realize my fault. I thank you from the bottom of my heart." Jimmy said sincerely.
"The prodigal son returns to his hometown and becomes a wise man. The things he has experienced are not useless. Many years later, maybe you will thank you for the lessons you learned!" Jogus was a person who had experienced it. He patted Jimmy on the shoulder with emotion.
"Senior Jogus is right, we believe in you, from now on, you will be more mature." Hai Xin nodded and said.
"Well, thank you, by the way, I believe you have heard that I was originally a winemaker? To express my gratitude, I will prepare my best-selling work tonight, and then, we will not return without getting drunk with delicious wine and food, how about it?"
Jimmy is in a good mood and is ready to come up with his pinnacle work to thank all his benefactors.
When he heard that there was wine to drink, Jogus saliva was almost coming out. He laughed excitedly and said, "Hahaha! Brother Jimmy? The winemaking master has finally come back?"
