After a little thought, Byron borrowed a quill pen and drew a peony flower on paper.

Originally, Byron wanted to spend some more powerful patterns, such as the dragon in his hometown, but when he thought about it, he felt too ostentatious, and he couldn't find it.

Intricate patterns and ornaments, especially those with beasts of prey and ornate weapons, were contracted by the nobles. If the unfamous mercenary dares to use it, he will be ridiculed and secretly excluded and suppressed, and Byron should not challenge this unspoken rule for the time being.

There are countless people on the continent of Calradia who use various flowers as the symbol of their mercenary team, and Byron only needs to pick one that no one else has ever seen.

As far as Byron knows, the peony, the national flower of the Celestial Empire, is basically an existence on the mainland that can only be seen in books, which is exactly in line with this characteristic, and it can also make Byron miss his hometown where he doesn't know if he can go back.

As for why it's a peony, Byron is actually quite helpless. At this time, he could remember that the only famous flowers in his hometown were peonies, lotus flowers, and plum blossoms, but the only ones he could draw completely at this time were peonies.

"Our logo, Peony."

After Byron finished painting the peony, he added two thin leaves that flew upwards under the flower, and Byron deliberately drew the tips of the leaves very thin, so that these two leaves looked as sharp as a sword.

"I've seen flowers like this in the library before, but unfortunately Calradia doesn't have this flower growing. It's good, Mr. Byron, it's beautiful and it's rare, I remember it. ”

Malone nodded, turned and entered the house. And Byron took this picture drawn on thin pieces of cloth, and went to a tailor to make some pieces of cloth, on which were painted the peony pattern that Byron told him. As for the flag, Byron did not dare to think about it yet.

Byron believed that if he told his friends back home about his idea, they would laugh at why he chose the peony flower as a symbol, and that neither the meaning nor the image were right.

However, when Byron showed the motif to Fatis and the other soldiers, they naturally accepted it, and Fatis praised Byron for his erudition to be able to pick out such a presence from so many flowers that could hardly be seen on the continent.

Byron's face was trained, so he didn't blush, but he still felt a little embarrassed to be complimented like this.

Regardless, Byron's team of mercenaries finally had a decent pattern.

It stands to reason that smuggling out of the country could not be delayed, but in order to find a way through the camps in the area of the fighting between the two sides, Byron stayed in Uxhall for five days!

At this time, Byron realized that he had calculated too little, and was too naïve to think that as long as it was natural, there would be a way.

However, upon inquiry, it became clear that several groups of merchants who had tried to smuggle in the country had been caught and their goods confiscated, naturally on the grounds that they had violated the orders of His Majesty King Haraus.

Of course, anyone who understands the inside knows that the biggest problem of these people is that they did not find a nobleman who participated in the war at the front as a "partner".

Now even Uxhall has stepped up his investigation of past merchants, and if he can't get through the relationship, Byron can't complete his plan.

But now Byron is just an ordinary mercenary, and he has no reputation, and it would be impossible to meet those nobles without the introduction of Fatis.

However, Fatis didn't know many nobles, and it was even more difficult to find someone who could help him.

Byron walked around the city for five days through the mayor's relationship before he met a baron who had withdrawn from the front line as a son of a nobleman from Fatis. The baron was a knight himself, and he was a great performer, but he was always on the line, and it is said that his soldiers, although loyal to him, always complained that their salaries were not paid in time, and Byron's opportunity was here.

In order to accomplish his goal, Byron changed into a velvet coat worth twenty dinars, put on the repaired chain mail inside, and talked respectfully according to the etiquette and clichés of the nobility, and told his own battle experience as naturally as possible, and finally pleased the Sith baron.

After offering an "army donation" of 200 dinars for the Baron's soldiers, the Sith Baron told Byron how to cross the border.

"I will issue a certificate that proves that you are legitimate merchants who are sending supplies to the front. Then you will have to find Baron Wilhelmhan, the quartermaster under Lord Claes, who is in charge of the supply of all the needs of the front, and with his help you can cross the border. I'm sorry, I'm a knight, I prefer to fight, I don't know how to get you guys straight through there"

"But he's very shrewd, he won't take your dinar directly, he'll definitely come up with the conditions that will benefit him the most."

"Thank you for your help, my lord."

Byron bowed, and Fatis saluted him. Fatis didn't know this baron, but he still knew Fatis's father, 200 dinars was not much for a nobleman, and this Sith baron was more for the sake of Fatis and his family's face.

Even though Phatis himself announced that he had broken away from the family, his reason was that he killed his brother in anger. And among the nobles, the most important thing is to fight for the right to inherit the brothers. So even so, the identity of Fatis is still recognized by the nobles, at least much stronger than those illegitimate children.

However, compared to Byron, Baron Sith was actually more interested in the sign that Byron himself had drawn for himself, and he had never seen that kind of flower, so he specially chatted with Byron about peony flowers. However, after knowing that this flower is extremely rare in the Calradia continent, he sighed regretfully. Previously, he also wanted to buy a bouquet of such flowers for his wife.

Of course, it is not only because of the love of husband and wife, but also because the pastime activities of aristocratic women in the context of this era are really rare.

After Byron got the letter that could prove his identity, he found three more mercenaries who had been to Rhodoc, all of whom were not well equipped, but they all had their own horses, which were caravan guards. Byron gave them 50 dinars, both to protect the caravan and to act as a guide.

And he promised them a reward after the trade trip.

Byron's only regret is that he still has to keep the dinar for emergency use, and he can't spend it indiscriminately, otherwise he will be more sure of hiring a few well-armed infantry on this trip.

In addition to the Rhodok guards on the border to deal with, those bandits in the Rhodok Kingdom also have to be extra careful. Byron, who had suffered a loss, already knew how much water his troops had, and the soldiers were also slow to upgrade, so he did not dare to take risks.

And what worries Byron even more is that if it enters the territory of Rhodok, how will this large amount of oil be sold? How do you buy Rhodok's goods?

Even if there is a shortage of goods, the nobles will not let them go easily. Caravans are sometimes mobile dinar vaults. The robbers took it away, and the nobles kept reaping it like sheep.
