Hearing the words of the skinny old man, Abel immediately understood his thoughts. He immediately said: "What the Priest said is right. This matter must be thoroughly investigated. Before that, I will give Mr. Dean 100 gold coins as compensation on behalf of the Milan family. I hope this can make up for Mr. Dean's loss."
One hundred gold coins?
Dean was about to give up for the time being. He raised his eyebrows: "One hundred gold coins can make up for three years of imprisonment in Thorn Flower Prison? Can it make up for three years of losses? Can it make up for my damaged reputation? "
Abel's eyes flashed. What kind of reputation does a little hunter have? But his face remained calm: "Since Mr. Dean is not satisfied, you can say a compensation method. I'll listen to it."
Dean sneered: "I don't need to say it. I'll settle the account with you! When I entered the prison, I was a junior hunter. How much gold coins does a junior hunter earn every year? A junior hunter was sentenced to prison and almost died in prison. How much should I compensate? One hundred gold coins? Do you think you are dealing with the homeless in the slums? You call this shabby gift compensation? "
Abel's face sank: "Don't be too greedy. This matter hasn't been thoroughly investigated. You are still a suspect!"
"Is that so?" Dean indifferently said: "Then thoroughly investigate. If the magistrate intervenes in the investigation, I believe you can find out a lot of things, right?"
Hearing the implied meaning of Dean's words, the cold light in Abel's eyes became colder. His eyes quickly glanced at Timothy and the sword scar youth. Both of them didn't open their mouth and remained silent. Abel understood that they naturally wouldn't say in public that they wouldn't intervene in this case. So their silence seemed to be acquiescence. Dean was taking the opportunity to use them to pressure him!
"Even if you don't say it, the magistrate will thoroughly investigate." Abel thought for a moment and said in a cold voice: "This compensation is our goodwill. Since you think it is too little, then I will give you ten times more. One thousand gold coins! So much money is enough for you to live the rest of your life without worries. "
Dean looked at him cynically: "The patriarch of the Milan family doesn't know how to calculate. In that case, I will calculate it for you. An ordinary junior hunter will get extra gold coins every time he performs a task. In addition to the money from the sale of hunting materials, he will also complete the task assigned by the consortium to collect materials. He needs to go outside the giant wall six times a year. The income varies from the lowest 500 gold coins to the highest 100,000 gold coins. If he is lucky, he can hunt a young monster and earn at least tens of thousands of gold coins! It is possible to earn 100,000 gold coins in three years! "
"Even if it's the lowest income, it's 1,500 gold coins for three years. That's the lowest. Isn't it ridiculous for you to give me 1,000 gold coins?"
Abel's face flashed with anger: "Pay attention to your words. Little civilian, how dare you talk to me like this?"
Dean sneered: "Patriarch Abel, please note that this is the court of judgment. According to the regulations of the magistrate, there is no distinction between nobles and civilians in the court of judgment. There is only distinction between criminals and non-criminals!"
Dean sneered: "Patriarch Abel, please pay attention. This is the judgment court. According to the regulations of the magistrate, there is no distinction between nobles and civilians. There is only distinction between crimes and non-crimes!"
"Five thousand gold coins?" Dean's heart was filled with killing intent: "Five thousand gold coins? Patriarch Abel, what I said is the annual income of an ordinary junior hunter. It doesn't mean that it is my annual income! My magic marks are rare monsters. Even if I am just a junior hunter, my role in the team can't be ignored. Five thousand gold coins? I'm not exaggerating, but it is not even a fraction of my annual income! "
Abel stared at him: "Mr. Dean, don't take advantage of the opportunity to blackmail me!"
Dean narrowed his eyes and said: "Blackmail? Patriarch Abel, do you want to bet with me? Let's bet on the amount of money I will earn from hunting outside the giant wall in the future. "
Abel's eyes were cold: "Really? Since you are so confident, I will bet with you. But the premise is that it must be effective within three years. If you delay for more than ten years and go outside the giant wall, then your strength will be stronger and your hunting efficiency will be higher."
Dean's mouth curled up: "Well, since we are going to bet, let's make a big bet. If I win, your family's Dragon Mountain Rubies will belong to me. How about it?"
Abel was startled and said resolutely, "No!" If he used the Dragon Mountain Rubies as a bet, then he was worried that other consortia would get the news and secretly help Dean. As a result, he would lose!
"Alright." The thin old man interrupted the argument between the two: "In my opinion, since Mr. Dean has been imprisoned for three years in Thorn Flower Prison as a hunter, then according to ten thousand gold coins per year, he should compensate thirty thousand gold coins."
Dean frowned. 30,000 gold coins? It was still not enough to reach his goal.
Just when Abel was about to say something, Alex, who was next to him, slowly said, "That's it. Let's call it a day. Thirty thousand it is. I'm just afraid that he won't be able to use it." After saying that, he stood up with the help of his walking stick, turned around, and led the way.
Abel's eyes were gloomy. He looked at Dean but didn't say anything. He turned away and left the courtroom.
The trial was over. Everyone dispersed.
Dean looked at Timothy and the scar-faced youth: "Thank you for helping me."
Timothy indifferently said: "Justice doesn't need to be thanked." Then he turned and left.
The scar-faced youth glanced at Dudian, then followed Timothy to leave.
Dean watched them disappear into the passage. He turned and came to Old Fulin: "Let's go back."
Old Fulin slowly sighed: "You scared me a moment ago. Five thousand gold coins is a lot. I didn't expect that it would be thirty thousand gold coins. Although this amount of money is not worth mentioning for the Milan family. But for us, it is a huge sum of money. We are one step closer to the one hundred thousand gold coins we need to rent the passage outside the giant wall!"
Dean's eyes lit up: "Let's go back and talk about it. The money from the factory should be recovered soon."
Fulin nodded.
Dean helped Old Fulin out of the magistrate. They sat in the carriage of the Ryan family and went back to the Ryan Castle.
Everyone in the castle came to see Dean when they heard the news. They were excited when they heard the huge compensation of 30,000 gold coins. They felt that the good days were coming. They naturally didn't know that the money wouldn't be used for their lives.
