Chapter 0499 The Adventures of Tintin (Eight Eight)
"Oh, thank you so much, my little angel!"
Captain Haddock took the suitcase and couldn't help but wanted to stretch out his arms to hug Qin'er to express his gratitude. Unexpectedly, Guan Hengyi grabbed her by the collar and pulled her back: "Hey, bearded man! Don't touch me.
Girlfriend, otherwise you will fall out immediately!"
"Hahaha!" Everyone present burst into laughter. The auction was tense, full of sudden changes, and had twists and turns. Captain Haddock and his team successfully purchased the Marlinspike Hall and achieved a great victory!
After a while, everyone drove to Marlinspike Hall in the suburbs. They walked on the soft lawn and smelled the fresh air. Everyone was filled with emotion.
"Hmm, the second time I came here, I suddenly felt that this is a really good place!" Guan Heng held Qin'er's wrist and said softly: "Look, what a beautiful garden and woods, they are all first-rate scenery.
!”
"Yes, it's really beautiful!" Qin'er said with a smile, "This is a good place for vacation!"
"Look, although there are twists and turns, it can be said to be a good beginning and a good end!" Guan Heng said to Ding Ding again: "We have been busy at sea for many days. Although we did not find the sunken ship and lost the treasure, we finally helped the captain redeem his ancestral property. This is considered a blessing.
What a pleasure!"
"Haha, you are right!" Ding Ding said with a smile: "At least, I now have a great sense of satisfaction and accomplishment!"
"Oh, when I came here in a hurry to rescue Guan Heng, I didn't take a closer look at this place!" Captain Haddock admired the countless beautiful scenery around him, and he couldn't help but sigh: "This place is really beautiful!
"
"Haha, everyone, I also know that there is a cellar!" Guan Heng suddenly laughed and said: "Brother Bird once locked me in there, but he let me escape!"
"Hey, this is so beautiful! Please allow us to roll on the lawn!" Unable to help being attracted by the natural scenery, Dupont and Dupont were like children. Before anyone could react, they rolled away on the lawn.
Got it!
"Okay, let the detective brothers play here!" The captain smiled and shook his head, and then said to Guan Heng: "Let's go for a walk in the cellar you mentioned. I'm really curious.
Woolen cloth!"
"Follow me, I'll take you there right now!" Guan Heng and the others said as they walked to the gate of the homestead. They met Nestor, the housekeeper, who was dejected, carrying his suitcase, and walking out in despair!
"Hey, Nestor!" Guan Heng walked over and patted him on the shoulder: "What's wrong, buddy? What are you so worried about? And where are you going?"
"Ah? It's Mr. Guan Heng and everyone! Woo hoo" Seeing everyone in front of him, Nestor, who was crying, seemed to have found a relative he wanted to talk to. He couldn't help but cry out: "Ever since the former owner, Brother Byrd, was arrested.
After the war, this place was taken over as public property!"
"Originally, Mr. Tang De, the gardener, and I could stay and continue to manage the mansion, but I thought about it. Once this place is re-auctioned, the new owner may not keep the old housekeeper! So in order to avoid embarrassment, I decided to pack everything up.
My son has left!"
Nestor wiped his tears and continued: "It's so tragic. I have been a housekeeper here for more than 20 years, but I didn't expect to lose my job when I get old!"
"Hey, so that's what happened!" Guan Heng smiled and patted Nestor on the shoulder: "I'll tell you good news. It was Captain Haddock who re-bought Marlinspike Hall, and this place was originally
His ancestral property!”
"That's right!" Nestor was overjoyed when he heard this. He hurriedly walked to the captain and said, "Sir, master, are you willing to continue to employ me as a butler?"
"Of course!" Captain Haddock said without hesitation: "No one can be fully qualified for the position of housekeeper except you. You are welcome to continue to be the housekeeper of this mansion, Nestor!"
"Oh, great! Master! To celebrate this moment, I'm going to get you a bottle of the best three-star brandy!" Nestor's mind was quick and he immediately thought of the captain's preferences.
"Great, you are truly the best butler!" Captain Haddock said happily: "Letting you stay on is the most correct decision I have ever made!"
"Wow, wow, the most correct decision! The most correct decision!" Gerbret, the parrot on the captain's shoulder, repeated his master's joy at an inappropriate time.
"I almost forgot about this little guy! Nestor!" The captain handed the parrot to the steward: "Go and get some food for this little naughty troublemaker. He likes chocolate cookies the most. Besides, I think Tintin's puppy also likes it.
It’s a little tired, so take it to the small room in the mansion to sleep for a while!”
"Master, please wait a moment. The drinks will be sent to you in a moment!" With the joy of being a housekeeper again, Nestor happily held the parrot and led the puppy Bai Xue to turn around and go to work!
"Okay, Captain, Tintin!" Guan Heng said with a smile: "Let's go visit the cellar of the house now!"
After entering the mansion, Guan Heng played the piano and guided everyone: "First we have to go through a long spiral staircase, and then go to the cellar, where there is an unexpectedly large room!"
A few people chatted and laughed and strolled into the cellar room. Guan Heng talked about using a large beam as a siege cone, which broke the cellar wall, and other interesting things, which made everyone laugh, and then
They passed through the outer rooms of the cellar, came to the large hole in the broken wall, and went straight to the opposite area!
"Hey, this room is much bigger than the room outside!" The captain and Ding Ding entered and immediately exclaimed: "Look, there are so many old goods, it's really dazzling, all kinds of strange things, everything is there!"
"Well, I think the Byrd brothers are very good at using the rooms here. They originally used this place as a storage room!" Guan Hengyi walked and said to Haddock with a smile: "That day, I bought their firearms.
I escaped under threats, but I broke a lot of things. Captain, you can't ask me to compensate you!"
"Guan Heng, what are you talking about?" Captain Haddock said carelessly: "You got most of the money to buy this house from selling gems. To be honest, you also own this house.
Half property rights!"
"Half the property right?! No, no, you must not say that!" After hearing this, Guan Heng hurriedly smiled and waved his hands: "According to your statement, the other half of the property right here belongs to Professor Calculus.
"
"Haha, you are right!" Captain Haddock shrugged and said, "But if that's really the case, and this house belongs to you and the professor, then I will drink the northwest wind!"
"Hahaha" everyone burst into laughter, all amused by the captain's deliberately funny words!
"Hey, where is Professor Calculus? Where has his figure gone?" Only then did Guan Heng realize that there was one person missing from everyone's team, and it was the professor everyone was talking about!
