Chapter 82: Preparations Before Departure (3)

"No, my lord, please forgive me for offending, I still insist on this decision," said the housekeeper Old Garin with a hurried expression in the room, retorting to his master for the first time. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Leo looked at the stubborn old man in front of him a little helplessly, and thanked the other party for his meticulousness and caution for a long time, so that Leo basically didn't spend any energy on the trivial matters around him.

Standing up, Leo persuaded with a false, sincere warmth that was different from the one he had spoken to the nobles

"Dear old Garin, I can understand your concerns and your concern for me, but you must understand that after I am gone, I need someone I can really trust to help me take care of my city, my mansion, which no one else can do except you."

There was a hint of struggle in his eyes, and the butler looked at Leo deeply with a very hidden gaze, as if he was looking at his own child, and quickly lowered his head and said

"But who can take good care of your life without me after such a long absence? Batar? No, my lord, I don't trust him, nor do I think that the man who has served the Duke of Orlando is well able to accommodate and provide everything you ask for......"

"Okay, don't worry, old Garin, although Batar was once the duke's butler, although he is definitely not as good as you in terms of ability, but as a butler, he is still a qualified candidate, and I won't live in Baiyue City for the time being, so it's a waste to let him be there, right?"

"Since you insist on this, then I am writing at once, begging you to take that little cub of Tron, who is not very capable, but his loyalty to you is unquestionable, and he can still do a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of work to do some trivial work and keep you safe......"

Shaking his head and smiling, Leo took a sip of the tea in front of him, sat down again and thought about it but refused

"My dear, don't forget that your son, Lord Tron, is already a true nobleman, he has his own territory to manage, and with him and Lester in the northern realm, I can only be truly at ease on this long journey, but old Garin, why did you refuse my offer to let you go and reunite with Tron in the first place?"

Speaking of his son, the butler's eyebrows subconsciously raised, and he was extremely proud of Tron's trust by his master, but his tone was still not very polite

"He? That silly boy was just lucky to meet you, an adult, what is his ability! Besides, I'm doing well here, not to mention you, even Finn's adults also respect me as an old man, why do you want to go back and watch that kid get angry every day. ”

Leo looked at the usually old-fashioned housekeeper in front of him with some amusement, it turned out that when it came to his children, parents in ancient and modern times at home and abroad were the same, proud and at the same time there was a hint of potential "Hmph, what's the big deal, it's not that Lao Tzu taught it well" that kind of feeling.

Changing to a more comfortable sitting position, a little reluctant to play with the teacup in his hand, Leo sighed, "If you want to say that the biggest regret, I'm afraid it's that I can't drink the tea you brewed yourself for a while!" ”

"This matter has been decided, help me and Anthony to guard our city well, and I think the most important thing for you to do now is to help me prepare the necessary salutes, and the reassuring servant, dear old Garin."

"As you wish, sir, you don't need to worry about this, I guarantee that you will always find everything you need at any time! Let's hope that idiot doesn't mess things up......"

Smiling and patting the butler on the shoulder, Leo slowly walked out of the room with a teacup......

At the same time, the usually quiet mansion was full of maids walking in a hurry, and soldiers in charge of helping

Under the personal supervision of Finn and the Punishment Knights, Rhodes shouted the trumpet with his already lean upper body, and several other champion swordsmen, and put the last heavy box into the cart for loading, and there were more than a dozen of them outside the cart full of boxes like this......

As for the contents of the box, Rhodes and the other soldiers who helped carry it could probably guess that in this era, in addition to coins, only a large number of stones could have such weight, but no matter how you look at your lord, it is not like a person who has such a hobby of carrying stones out......

As soon as he took a few breaths in the cart that had not yet been tied to the horses, a punishment knight who was secretly regarded as a "demon" because he taught and trained them came over with the hilt of his sword in his hand and drove away directly

"Okay soldiers, that's all for the time being, the rest of the things need to be loaded tomorrow after they are packed, lead the regiment commander to gather the soldiers and return to the barracks, remember, keep your mouth shut and don't let me hear any rumors, understand?"

"Yes, I understand, sir!"

After a long period of high-intensity drills, Rhodes and the others quickly subconsciously stood up straight after the "demon" order, and they all beat their chests and saluted loudly.

After watching the champion swordsmen quickly form a team under the leadership of their respective officers, and then trot away in a neat line, the punishment knight walked up to Finn with some apprehension and asked softly

"Captain, I don't understand why the adults are carrying so many gold coins, oh, and some precious cutlery and spices, a long way, so many ...... I'm starting to worry about the safety of adults. ”

Glancing at his companion in front of him, Finn said in a deep voice

"Don't doubt your decision, my brother, Keith has already gone to choose the man to protect the Lord this time, and I will follow it myself, plus those Noldor ...... As long as it is not a surprise attack by a large number of regular knights, even if it is besieged by thousands of people, we are sure enough to protect the adults......"

**********************

At this time, Leo, who was on the upstairs terrace, looked at the busy scene below, and really envied those seniors who crossed over, they could use the space equipment as they wanted, and they would never be suspected

In addition, no matter what era they travel to, there will be banks, money banks, gold shops, or similar existences, and they can easily exchange countless gold coins and banknotes for small pieces of paper that are easy to carry and suitable for B......

And yourself? He smiled self-deprecatingly, in order to keep the system secret, he could only propose a large number of gold coins to be transported in the most stupid way, and when asked if there were any similar banks, he was also ridiculed by Auston and Antonis after being stunned.

It's really a big and small crossing, and the same people don't have the same life! Fortunately, thinking that he didn't have to be regarded as a monster or a heretic by the people of the imperial capital because he suddenly took out a box of gold coins, and was burned to death by the church, Leo temporarily suppressed the imbalance of mentality.

Sipping the afternoon black tea complacently, Leo remembered the embarrassment of the trio in the imperial capital a few days ago, and couldn't help but laugh a little

At his insistence, after the Marquis of Auston and his persuasion failed, they could only accept the decision of an archduke to go to the imperial capital in person, and then several people felt that time was pressing, and scattered their manpower to desperately purchase various specialties of the northern territory, and even the glorious knights under Saru were sent out in a hurry.

A large number of skins and medicines that were favored in the emperor, plus the spices, gold coins, and exquisite tableware that Leo had sent back and forth, the three of them were stunned to find that the vehicles in the team could not hold so much cargo when they came.

After the Knights of Glory, who accompanied them to protect everyone, fiercely rejected Antonis' offer to sacrifice their horses, the few people who did not want to give up anything had to ask Leo for it.

In the end, the problem was completely solved after the four-wheeled carriage built according to the memory, together with the animals that pulled the cart, was given to the already ashamed Marquis of Auston, of course, if not counting the fierce gaze of the glorious knights from time to time......
