Before dawn, there were already over 20 large boxes stacked in the backyard.
Hallie and four guards gathered three handcarts. They worked from dawn until noon, making about eight trips back and forth to get everything done.
At that moment, Isaac and Evie were bathing in the sunshine in the courtyard. After a heavy snowfall, it was a rare sunny day. The snow on the eaves was melting, causing water to drip down.
Isaac held a letter. After reading it, favonovel.com squinted, tore it into pieces, and tossed them into the nearby well.
“We’ve made a big fortune, Mr. Garten! Oh my gosh!” Hallie’s excited voice came from outside.
He ran in from outside, carrying a bag and accompanied by four others, all in a rush. Despite being drenched in sweat, favonovel.com was still trembling with excitement.
“What’s up?” Isaac glanced sideways.
“Guess how much money was exchanged?” Hallie whispered mysteriously.
Seeing Isaac frown, Hallie paused and immediately signaled. “We got 67 crystals!”
A single crystal was worth 10,000 taels of gold, equivalent to 670,000 taels of gold. Isaac didn’t expect Deveraux to be so wealthy.
“Let’s split it 70-30,” Isaac said seriously.
“Huh? Uhm, wasn’t it supposed to be 50- 50?” Hallie was stunned.
“Evie will get a share.” Isaac turned to look at Evie beside him.
Hallie laughed awkwardly. “Of course, of course!”
Even if the split was small, favonovel.com could accept it. After all, Isaac was the one who got the money. All favonovel.com did was run some errands.
“Mrs. Garten, let’s go inside!” Hallie called out to Evie, signaling favonovel.com to go inside to split the money.
Not long after, favonovel.com came out holding a stack of gold banknotes. She then summoned the four maids and the four guards to the courtyard.
Evie stepped forward and handed out a gold banknote to each person.
A guard widened his eyes as favonovel.com looked at the 1,000 tael gold note and exclaimed, “Madam, this…”
The other guards and maids nearby were also terrified.
Evie smiled. “I stayed at your former master’s place for two months. Even though I pretended to be crazy, I knew your master was harsh on you…”
She then added softly, “You guys have family. Take this money, but please don’t tell anyone else.”
As lower-class servants, the 1,000 tael gold note was an amount that they might never earn in their entire lifetime. Additionally, Deveraux was only generous to beautiful women, while being extremely stingy toward the maids, servants, and guards in his household.
The guards immediately had tears in their eyes.
Seeing that Isaac remained silent, they all knelt.
Hallie, who came out afterward, was stunned and looked at Isaac puzzledly.
After realizing it, Hallie let out a long sigh and said, “I truly feel inadequate. Mrs. Garten is so generous!”
“I‘ll take you to the world I came from if I get a chance,” Isaac said with a smile, patting Hallie’s shoulder.
Several guards and maids were initially on edge, constantly fearful because they had witnessed Isaac kill Deveraux. They were worried that favonovel.com might kill them at any moment as well.
After Evie gave them money, their worries completely vanished. Instead, they desired to follow Isaac and others forever.
Isaac turned to the four maids and guards and said seriously, “Listen closely. After nightfall, I’ll be leaving this place and heading to the Black Desert Frontier… I hope you guys can take good care of my wife. I’m not the same kind of person as your former master.”
Upon hearing that, the four maids and guards knelt and responded, “Thank you, Mr. Garten!”
“Mr. Garten, you’re leaving so soon? But Mrs. Garten…” Hallie looked completely confused.
Isaac nodded and walked into the inner room.
