Chapter 0027: A Barbecue Party
"Human trafficking is not impossible, the family's fleet has to go to sea every year to trade, but with a population of tens or hundreds, it is not worth the risk. β
"Five thousand. β
"What?"
"I need five thousand people. β
"Five thousand, are you sure you can eat it?"
"Sure. β
Levi squinted: "I'll go back and think about it." β
Back in the living room, no one mentioned human trafficking again, and the atmosphere of afternoon tea was very lively under the activity of Galtai.
The convoy will stay in Flower Town for one night, and most of the knights and servants will stay in the town. Levi and Li Weiwei will take their personal servants and live in the castle.
Old Carter, the housekeeper, has been exceptionally busy today.
"Tom, where is Jesse, I need his help!" "Not very flexible legs, repeatedly going up and down the stairs, already sore, he wiped the sweat on his head and went into the kitchen, "Isn't Jesse helping in the kitchen?"
"Jesse should be transporting horse grass, there are dozens of more horses in the castle, we don't have enough forage to feed the horses. Tom carefully placed a sack of flour beside the stove.
"When he returns, let him go to the warehouse to find me, I need someone to carry the food that has been brought into the castle today and store it in the cellar. β
"Okay, Mr. Carter. β
Irene, the kitchen maid, looked up while washing the dishes: "Mr. Carter, do you need my help?"
Without waiting for Carter to answer, the cook Abi scolded: "You can't finish the work in the kitchen, and you still have the time to help, what, Irene, do you want to change jobs!"
Carter spread his hands: "Erin, you probably can't help. β
"I see...... God knows how long I'll have to be in the kitchen today, it's hot and stuffy, my clothes are soaking wet, and Mrs. Abbey is burning the stove too hot. β
"Oh, yes, are you a chef or am I a chef, do you want to cook the dinner of the gentlemen?"
"You're a chef. β
"Then shut your little mouth and work quietly!"
Carter had already walked out, the kitchen was so hot that he felt a dull feeling in his chest, and he didn't know if it was heat stroke - it wasn't summer yet, but it was getting hotter. He took out his handkerchief, wiped it on his face, and half-leaned against the wall to breathe a sigh of relief.
Mawson Rice Field, who was carrying a bucket of water, saw Carter's appearance and asked with concern, "Are you not feeling well, Mr. Carter?"
"It's uncomfortable, it's just a little hot. β
"Yes, but your face is a little bad, isn't it too nervous. There are so many guests in the castle today, and you have to work everywhere up and down. β
"How can I be nervous, Mrs. Mawson, I have seen a more lively scene in the Earl's annex, and I can handle this. Carter put away the handkerchief, "Have you cleaned up the rooms of Young Master Levi and Miss Li Weiwei?"
"Miss Li Weiwei's personal maid has been complaining about dust falling off the walls, or complaining about the shabby bed sheets. β
"The quality of the utensils is not something we can decide, don't be rude in the details of the work, let the rest go, the real nobility will not be resentful because of this. β
"The Tulip family is a true aristocracy. Mrs. Mawson nodded, "Mr. Carter, don't you really need to take a break?"
"Don't worry about me. β
"The old man is very good, he must not want to see you overworked. β
"I'm not overworked, in fact I'm enjoying it now, I don't have a lot of guests in the castle, so I get a chance to perform. Alright, I'm going to tidy up the warehouse. Yesterday I was complaining about the lack of food, and today there is so much food that the warehouse can't even fill it. β
......
The castle is small and there is little entertainment.
After drinking afternoon tea, some of the knights prepared to go hunting in the Thorn Ridge. In this regard, Liszt readily agreed, and he also invited Levi and Li Weiwei to hunt together.
"With so many earth knights, it's best to wipe out the demonic beasts of Thorn Ridge. He had this thought in his heart, "Even if you can't hunt demonic beasts, it's good to familiarize yourself with the terrain of Thorn Ridge." β
Draped neatly.
Turning over the horse, this time he rode a fire dragon horse, and it was not enough to run in with the Lilong horse, which affected the performance of strength.
He didn't let Thomas follow him, and only brought Marcus and the four knights: "Thomas, take care of my dragon, and don't forget to feed Shake Sen at the right time, it's growing body, but it can't be hungry." β
"What is Shake Sen?" asked Li Weiwei.
"A dog. β
"Do you still have a dog, what breed. β
"Storm dogs. β
"Storm Dogs?"
"Yes, a Dirt Dog cub, Mr. Marcus caught in Thorn Ridge. Liszt said casually.
"Earth Knight, Black Tulip, Peanut Worm, Storm Dog Cub, and a Wild Horse, Liszt, are you favored by the god of luck, I envy you a little. β
"All I can say is that life in the countryside is varied. β
"Falcon Town is also in the countryside, but it's not as colorful as Flower Town. β
"That's because my sister often lives in Tulip Fort and neglects life in the countryside. β
"You can also continue to live in Fort Tulip if you want, and Father has no intention of driving you away. Levi rode over and interjected.
Liszt thought it was just a polite phrase: "I like Flower Town, it's free, you can do whatever you want." β
"Including planting grass at the entrance of the castle. Levi pointed to the serfs who were cultivating alfalfa grass and joked, "In the future, your castle can be called the Fort of the Horse Farm." β
Such a small castle, it is impossible to come up with a name.
Liszt raised his horsewhip: "Let's go, the sun has set in the west, and we can't enter the depths of the Thorn Ridge, so it is estimated that we will have to return." The dragon horse followed his heart and began to run.
If he wants to bring this group of knights into Thorn Ridge, he will have to hunt at least a few magical beasts - sooner or later, he will have to conquer Thorn Ridge and bring this hill and forest into the territory of Flower Town, and kill one more magical beast now, and there will be less danger in the future.
Pity.
On this hunting trip, only ordinary beasts were hunted.
The demonic beast was much smarter than the beast, and when they felt the surging fighting energy in the body of the earth knights, they hid early.
Even so, the prey caught is enough to have a big barbecue party. The nobles, knights, and servants gathered together to laugh over beer and cream.
"Wow, Mr. Barbecue, give me another rabbit leg. "Tulip elves, flying around happily, elves don't need to eat and drink, but they can also digest what they eat.
Thomas, who was busy barbecuing, hurriedly handed the elf a rabbit leg that had been roasted and sprinkled with condiments.
The two elves next to him, without saying hello, took away two pieces of barbecue meat by themselves.
"Xiangxiang, you eat too fast, chew more to appreciate the deliciousness of the food. Liszt tore the rabbit head in his hand and said with a smile.
Elves are so rare that looking at elves will make you feel better.
What's more, he still eats barbecue, which he likes very muchβthe food in this world, probably only barbecue, for his appetite.
"I like to eat big bites. β
Xiangxiang ate all over the oil, and then gently shook her body, like a puppy throwing water, and all the oil on her body flew out, clean, and there was no stain left.
