Chapter Ninety-Four: Mithril Equipment

"Then forge at this price, as long as the quality is guaranteed, the salary will definitely not be less than yours!"

After taking a deep breath, Gervais spoke to Bernard in a calm tone.

Bernard didn't know where Gervais's Mithril came from, but as a blacksmith, he knew the purchase price of Mithril, so he was amazed that Gervais was so calmly determined to forge this batch of weapons and equipment.

"Thank you for the compliment, Bernard, there are 10 grams of Mithril here, and you can mix them all into iron and forge them! Other equipment can be forged in the back, but I hope you will help me finish it as soon as possible. ”

10 grams of Mithril is prepared by Gervais according to the amount needed to build weapons and equipment, when forging weapons, Mithril is not as much as possible, Gervais learned when he was in a noble school, each weapon needs to add the proportion of Mithril, which also saves some ill-intentioned blacksmiths to swallow Mithril privately, after all, one gram is worth 10 gold coins.

"As you wish, my lord, I will begin forging this object on your drawings as soon as possible.

"Very well, Bernard, then I will take my leave, if there is any progress, you can come to the castle directly to me."

When everything was settled, Gervais left the blacksmith shop and prepared to head to the town square to see how the recruitment was going.

This time, he spent his blood to build such good equipment, and naturally he also wanted to select some excellent serfs to become his personal guard soldiers.

Out of the blacksmith's shop, Gervais told Anna's maid the price of each unit price for crafting weapons, and when Anna had finished recording it, he rode back to the town square.

At this moment, a large number of people were still gathered in the town square, and the serfs were all focused on the selection of guards, Gervais did not want to interrupt the selection process, so after arriving at the square, he deliberately dismounted, and went in from the side to check, and no one in the field noticed his arrival.

After Gervais made a detour to the periphery of the selection of soldiers, Audri and Laurie were constantly checking on the serf youths who had come to enlist.

These serf youths have all taken off their shirts and are naked, and it is clear at a glance whether all of them are strong or emaciated.

The number of people who came to apply today is about two hundred, and almost the entire territory of school-age youths have already come, after all, there are only more than 2,000 people in the territory, and Gervais has set the age group, and it is already good to have this number.

Laurie and Audri used the selection method of elimination, all the guards stood in line one by one, and then Laurie and the two checked them one by one, and first eliminated those who were obviously low and weak in height and physique, and about half of the first batch of people who were eliminated, after these people were eliminated, they immediately returned to the crowd of onlookers in frustration, while those who were not eliminated continued to stand in the field, re-lined up and waited for the next round of elimination.

Eliminated again and again, when it came to the fourth round, there were only more than forty young people left standing in the field, and these were all left with an advantage in height or size, in this world of cold weapons and short arms, there is no such thing as short and concise, unless it is a title knight, otherwise ordinary soldiers are the stronger and taller the better.

"I'm not convinced, why eliminate me! I have a lot of strength! ”

Gervais saw that Laurie and Audrey had a good approach, and the remaining youths in the field were quite good, and even if they chose themselves, they would not do better than them, so they prepared to return to the castle with Anna's little maid, but at this time, there was a loud voice in the square, and a young man should have been eliminated, but he was not convinced, and shouted directly.

When the serfs who were watching saw that the young man did not listen to the command of the guards, they immediately began to buzz, some wondered whose child this young man was, and some discussed how the guards would punish the young man who caused trouble.

You must know that in this territory, in addition to the lord, the guards can be said to be the most majestic and the most powerful group, especially these two can also recruit soldiers for the lord.

"Hurry up, stinky boy, you still came to be a soldier before your hair grows, and if you make trouble and delay the lord's affairs, be careful that I will hang you up and whip you!"

Laurie and Audri are also Gervais's side, knowing Gervais's temperament, they don't like to bully the weak, especially the serfs in their own territory, so Laurie and Audri are polite to this noisy young man who doesn't obey orders, and they don't do anything, they just put on a fierce expression and scold.

"I'm an adult, and I have a lot of strength, I don't believe you let them fight with me to see, if they lose, I'll leave immediately."

The boy was still unwilling, still blushing his neck and wanting to ask for a chance to show his ability.

"I said you stinky boy are not looking for a beating, the requirement to recruit soldiers was announced to the entire storm collar yesterday, the lord stipulates that the age is 18-22 years old to participate, you see how old you are, are you 16 years old? Hurry up and get out, or don't blame me for being unkind! ”

"I'm 17 years old! I have more strength than them, and I just don't accept it! ”

"Hey, boy, you're only 17 years old! Get down to me! ”

Laurie and Audri were almost amused by this kid, but now they were doing business for the lord, and they didn't dare to let this kid mess around here anymore, so they rolled up their sleeves and prepared to kick this kid out.

"I'm not convinced! I'm going to be a guard. ”

When the boy saw Laurie and Audri coming around him, he knew that he could not resist, so he shouted louder and louder.

"Wait!"

Just as Lauri and Audri were twisting the teenager and preparing to throw him off the field, Gervais walked in to stop them.

"Your Excellency!"

"Your Lord!"

"Hello, lord, I didn't mean to cause trouble......

When they saw that the person who spoke was Gervais, Laurie and the others hurriedly let go of the young man in their hands and saluted Gervais in unison.

And the serfs in the square also knew that the lord was coming, and they knelt on the ground again.

The teenager who had been let go by Laurie and Audri did not kneel, but bent down to salute Gervais, and then tried to explain what had just happened, but was interrupted by Gervais waving.

"You'll talk about it later."

The young man seemed to be a little afraid of the lord, so his words were interrupted by Gervais, and he immediately closed his mouth, not daring to say more.

"Get up!"

When the boy stopped talking, Gervais waved his hand indifferently and motioned for the serfs present to get up.

"Thank you, Lord Lord!"

A group of serfs got up one after another, ready to be a melon-eating crowd, to see what happened to this young man in the end, but when he saw the lord's face, it was not good-looking, so they just looked at it one by one, and no one dared to talk to each other below as just now.
