Chapter 138: I have a letter from my son!(2/2)
He quickly advised: "Sir, the Swift Bee mount is one of the foundations of our Baizhen family. It must not be sold. If funds are needed, I am willing to contribute my manor and fields!"
Chief Baizhen smiled bitterly: "Armwa, my most loyal knight, I am very grateful for your kindness. But this matter is not that simple."
"I sell this method not only to raise funds so far, but also for another reason, that is, I have to sell it!"
"The Baizhen family no longer has the strength to keep such a precious thing. If we hold on to it any longer, I'm afraid it will lead to more brutal attacks or even plunder."
"How is that possible?" Jian Wa was shocked.
Chief Baizhen shook his head and said nothing.
Within the Shengming Empire, there are many forces that dislike the Baizhen family. Before, when Zhenjin was still talking about it, he was a member of the Knights Templar.
This is the strong connection between the Baizhen family and Emperor Shengming.
But Zhenjin disappeared, and the relationship was severed.
The Baizhen family is in turmoil.
Jiwa was silent and clenched his fists.
In the study room, the atmosphere was very depressing.
At this moment, the housekeeper opened the door and shouted excitedly: "Sir, sir, there is news about the young master."
"What?"
The housekeeper gasped: "Just now, we got a blackmail letter. The letter said that pirates had captured Master Zhenjin and his fiancée, Miss Zidi, and asked us to pay a ransom."
"You can't be a liar, right?" Jian Wa remained unmoved.
During this period of time, due to the full search and rescue efforts of the Baizhen family, no one knew about this matter. As a result, many frauds and extortion incidents occurred.
"No, it's different this time." The butler shook his head, "There are special marks on the letter, and the content of the letter is encrypted. We must use our code book to decipher it!"
"What!"
boom.
