Chapter 1 Back-to-back traverser
The cold river water irritated Harvey’s skin, his eyes, nose and mouth were submerged by the river water. He was struggling to breathe but choked on a few more mouthfuls. The nausea of cold foreign objects pouring into his stomach made him feel at a loss. The senses, his head was in a mess, and he didn’t even know why he appeared here.
Wow
“Cough cough Wow wow huhu hu ” ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
Harvey felt a pulling sensation coming from behind him, and he was finally able to escape from the smell of the smelly gutter. He gasped for breath, his respiratory tract and eyes were sorely choked by the river.
Where is this place?
He moved his body and realized that he was **** with a rope. The night was dim. He was collapsing on the edge of a river. He was just taken out of the river and his body was soaked. When the cold wind blew, he couldn’t help but beat him. She shuddered and looked around in confusion. Surrounded by him were several sturdy men with fierce expressions, barely seeing them through the dim street lights.
Foreigner?
Harvey snorted and wanted to say something, a strange memory suddenly appeared in his mind telling him where it is, who he is, and who these strong men in front of him are. This message was passed into his mind along with the memory. Harvey’s thoughts were so confused that he couldn’t take care of it. After taking a few breaths, his stomach twitched and vomited out the river water he had swallowed along with the bread he had eaten for dinner.
“Wow ”
In front of him, a middle-aged man dressed as a gentleman in a black suit disliked covering his nose with a handkerchief. The crutches held by the other hand pressed against Harvey’s forehead and said slowly: “Dear Mr. Harvey, you are in our company. The loan has been overdue for more than one month. During this month, our company has spent a lot of effort to catch you here. You can tell me how you were committed when you borrowed money. As the Adrian family The descendants don’t have the glory of being a nobleman. It’s really a shame. Maybe I should send you to court, where you will be judged fairly.”
Harvey felt much better after vomiting, coughing a few times, struggling to look up at the middle-aged man dressed as the gentleman: “Wait… wait, Mr. Lester, I still need a little time to get the payment. Your loan.”
—I just came across this routine?
Harvey was scolded in his heart, but in the body of this person named Harvey, the soul came from an ordinary young man on earth. After accepting the memory of this body, he understood how things happened. First of all, this body The owner is the heir of a declining aristocratic family, followed by a very old-fashioned dude. He was used to spending money lavishly, and he borrowed money from private banks when he lost his family’s property. But he fell to his current situation. He was okay and enjoyed it. Hand all the mess to him, a hard-working traverser.
scolding, he still has to find a solution to the predicament in front of him, otherwise it is him who will suffer in the end.
The gentleman named Lester clenched his crutches and said with disdain: “Tell me, how about getting it together? The Adrian family filed for bankruptcy three years ago. Give you some time to get 30 Barrons ?”
“Thirty? I remember I only borrowed ten Gold Barrons from you!” Ten Gold Barrons can allow Harvey to keep the nobles happy and happy for a while. The average family uses one Barron a month. Lun gold coins. Thirty gold coins are a costly expense for ordinary nobles, and the tripling of them makes Harvey unacceptable.
“This is the consequence of your breach of contract and the total amount of effort we spent searching for you. If you are dissatisfied, you can go to court to bring a lawsuit.”
Harvey’s face was gloomy, and after thinking about it, he gritted his teeth and said, “Okay, but I need time to raise money.”
In my memory, the contract signed by the body owner does have a treaty that is several times overdue. Is he a pig! ? The laws of this world have not yet been perfected to the extent that they provide for lending.
Lester nodded to the thugs next to him. When Harvey secretly said something was wrong, he was grabbed by the thugs and punched in the stomach.
“Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
With the pain and suffocation coming from his abdomen, he fell on the floor and gasped. Lester, dressed as a gentleman, pressed his crutches on the back of his hand and sneered, and said with a sneer: “Mr. Adrian, is that the same trick?” Do you want to use it for us a second time? Unfortunately, there are only two options for you now. Maybe you can choose to sell your maid or wait for the court to decide.”
It is said that there are two options. In fact, the latter is basically intimidation. For Harvey Adrian himself, a former aristocrat who was sued by a bank will probably become the laughing stock of the upper class. For Harvey, who has always maintained his aristocratic style It is impossible to accept an option. Now Harvey doesn’t care about the so-called reputation, but he is not stupid enough to choose this option.
Harvey breathed hard, after a while, he looked up at the indifferent gentleman and said in a hard tone: “Sorry, I can’t choose either of these options. Mr. Lester can choose to drown me here or wait. In a period of time, I promise to prepare 30 Gold Barrons to pay off the debt.”
Lester was a little surprised to look down at the fine-skinned noble son. He originally thought that he would be thrown into the river and flooded. After a few words of intimidation, he would obediently sell the maid to offset his loan. Harvey smiled firmly in his eyes, and nodded to the beater next to him. Then Harvey was beaten again and again by thugs. He curled up silently, covering his head with his hands to endure the suffering.
The thugs obviously do this often, and they know that they are not greeted to the vitals of the body.
Harvey was beaten as a sandbag for several minutes, UU Read www.uukanshu.com Lester asked again: “Then Mr. Adrian, have you changed your mind?”
With a hot pain all over, Harvey scolded his mother in his heart or shook his head and refused. He looked straight at the gentleman and said hard: “Mr. Lester, although the Adrian family has fallen, you should know We are still part of the social world. Swear in the name of the Adrian family, I only need a little time, for you this is more valuable than a corpse.”
The so-called social world refers to the upper class. Harvey’s words are guaranteed and threatening. The Adrian family has fallen, but no one knows what kind of intertwined relationships this ancient family will have. If things go wrong. , The people who had been related to the Adrian family saw this incident even if they were unhappy, they would endure the catastrophe.
The real situation is only understood by Harvey himself. The rules of the upper class are very cruel. The Adrian family belongs to the eliminated member and has no status at all.
Luster’s face was uncertain, and he approached Harvey and warned: “Well, we will give you another month. After one month, if you can’t take out thirty balun gold coins, we will formally file a lawsuit in the court. And demanded to repay ten times the amount, I hope you can be clear about the stakes in this.”
After finishing speaking, he ordered his subordinates to untie Harvey’s rope and leave here.
At this time, Harvey was able to relax, staggering to a wall and sitting down to look around the surrounding environment, surrounded by old Victorian-style buildings, angular, or Gothic, or Renaissance, or Greek style , Looks quite exquisite and beautiful, the glass windows shining dim light, lightly illuminating the river that flooded him just now, the river is muddy, and he is disgusted at the thought of just taking a few sips.
