PLIERS RING

17. Helping a Crying Girl

"You who? why did you jump?" Intan asked back.

'I'm Mei, I don't want to be sold... I'm desperate for an arranged marriage with a married man.' Said the girl while sobbing.

'My father forced me to marry Mr. Seven, I don't want to be the seventh concubine..!'

Nanang and Intan were shocked, the seventh concubine? what is this. have many wives want additional wives??'

Who's Mr Seven?

his physical strength must be very good and could last a long time.

"I'll listen first, if possible to help, I'll help you." Even though Intan was rich and from a powerful military family in power, there were many things he could not handle, so he would listen and judge first.

'Brother, help me, I don't want to marry Seven, I don't want to be the eighth wife of a 70-year-old man in town! Uuu...' The little girl named Mei cried from her nose and tears.

Intan almost fainted hearing the age of the man, 70 years old and still wanted to have an eighth concubine, amazing!

After all, Mr. Seven was an old man, and it was inappropriate for him to hug and marry the girl Mei seemed to be only 15 years old. Intan patted the girl on the shoulder, trying to comfort her.

The girl continued her story, Intan and Nanang continued to listen to the full story of the girl Mei, after listening, they both felt pity, They looked at the crying and crying girl.

Mei's girl's father is Jang, a famous gambler in a remote village who likes to risk his money at a casino in the city of Teng. He often lost and would drink whenever he lost money, and beat up his daughter drunk. They also have a son at home. Her son was quite diligent and honest, while her other seven daughters had been sold.

This May is the youngest daughter! He will be sold for money in the near future. Perhaps that money will also be spent on gambling. Nanang thought, what a poor boy.

Nanang could not help but speak.

"'Do you want to derail your marriage?"' Ask Nanang

'Yes.' Answer the girl

"'I'm Nanang, and this is Intan next to me, my wife."'

Intan just rolled her eyes hearing what Nanang said.

"We will help you end this unjust marriage!" Strictly speaking, Intan said.

The young lady's mind stopped for a moment. It was clear that he still had not regained consciousness even after a while.

Intan doesn't mind. He took out a silk handkerchief from his sleeve and wiped away the young lady's tears. The girl was confused by his gentle demeanor. Where did this beautiful woman come from?

Calmly, Intan asked, "How much did Mr. Seven pay your father for you?"

'Twenty million belly.'

Girl Mei notices Intan giving her a handkerchief. He was holding his silk handkerchief, confused.

Intan squeezed the girl's soft face. Smiling, he said.

"Please take us to your place, please call your father and tell him that my husband has big business matters that he wants to discuss with him."

Mei gripped onto Intan's pants and asked quietly.

'Miss, what will your husband do?'

Intan patted the head of the girl Mei and smiled, saying unhurriedly.

"You'll know in a minute."

The girl got up and took Nanang and Intan to the village where she lived.

The village where Mei lived was about 2 hours walk from where Nanang villa was located. Apparently Mei girl had no money so just went walking until finally jumped into the river before being helped Nanang. They drove Nanang's car to get there faster.

The village where the girl Mei lives is called the village of fog, it is said that this village is named after the village of fog because during the rainy season this village is cold and has a fog that restricts vision, it is said, sometimes they can't get out of the house until a few days when the fog is so thick, thankfully it's spring so there's no fog in the village right now.

as soon as Intan and Nanang came out, those citizens gasped as if looking at the beautiful and handsome, the Goddess and the Gods descending to earth.

"Wow, what a beauty, who is she?"

'That guy is so handsome like he is a rich man !'

"'Isn't that certain? just look at their clothes, drive a fancy car, do they visit their relatives here?'"

""Who are their relatives? they were so lucky to have such wealthy relatives like them.it was really envious!""

"Hey look isn't that Mei are they distant relatives?"

'I don't think, if old Jang had rich relatives, they would have moved from this village long ago.'

"'Who are they relatives? Are your relatives?"'

"No, but they're definitely not your relatives!"

Mei's girl takes Nanang and Intan away to Mei's girl's house, after the time it takes to burn one incense stick has passed, Mei's girl brings Nanang and Intan to her house.

In the courtyard of the house there is Jang who is commonly called old Mr. Jang by the residents. His face flushed red and he looked a little drunk as he observed the two guests his daughter had brought.

Nanang and Intan observe old Mr. Jang, then start a business conversation.

"Alola Mr. Jang.." Nanang greeted old man Jang.

Old man Jang's eyes turned red And He held a small bottle of wine in his hand, drunk and confused he looked at Nanang in a daze and asked in disdain.

'Who are you ?'

Nanang replied, "wanted to discuss a business deal with you."

'talk about what business?' Old man Jang asked, He is very drunk and his mind sometimes cannot remember half a word.

Nanang replied casually.

"we want to buy your house and land for 1 billion bellies."

'1, 1 billion bellies?'

Old man don't finally realize from his drunkenness at that moment.

The residents who followed Nanang diamond and also the neighbors who were watching the arrival of foreign guests instantly became dumbfounded in shock.

A billion belly? for a village person like them, this amount of money was not something they could save Even in their two annual home lives was only around 12 million bellies per year.

For an ordinary family, one is considered kayaking when they can have a billion bellies.

Pak Dedes who was also the head of the fog village was stunned by Nanang's sudden proposal and calmly asked him.

"'What do you mean..buy their land and homes with a billion bellies?"'

The neighbors murmured, "What he meant was that the land and the house would be his, then old man Jang could do whatever he wanted with that kind of money.""
