Нужно раскрыть скобки (поставить в правильном времени) и продолжить историю. Очень срочно. Помогите пожалуйста! :)

Mildhall was about a hundred miles from my home and i (know) i (get) there by lunchtime. i (ride) about the town for about half an hour before i (find) the small house belonging to Gordon Butcher and his family. He (have) lunch when i (knock) on the door. i (ask) him if he (can) (talk) to me  about the treasure. "No,thank you", he said. "I (have) enough of reporters. I (not, want) to see any more reporters (come) to my place". I told him i 9not, be) a reporter but a short-story writer working for magazines and that if he (tell) me exactly how he (find) the treasure, then i (write) a truthful story about it and (split) the money equally with him. I (expect) him (help) me and he (do).
