Chapter 152: The Caravan Departs

The next morning, the vestibule of the castle was already bustling with activity, with a guard fully armed, even a Glovest battle vest already worn outside, and 14 guards, including Laurie, lined up to wait for the convoy to leave.

The servants of the castle carefully loaded boxes of goods for sale onto the carriages, and there were five carriages in the forecourt, which were only owned by Gervais after the interception of Lenny's convoy, but Gervais was certainly not stupid enough to use the stolen carriages openly.

Lenny's carriages had actually been swapped with Gervais's when Nashen returned, and Lenny's carriages had been taken to Gandalf's territory.

"Thomas, this time the caravan is in your hands! I hope you can bring back wealth for me, for Storm Collar. ”

At the door of the inner fort, Gervais looked at the busyness in the vestibule and said to Thomas behind him.

"Adult, the villain must do his best, if there is the slightest mistake, the adult can ask me!"

It is not difficult to say that it is difficult to say that it is not easy to say that it is not easy.

Because this is the first time to trade, Gervais's subordinates have no experience to be strict, and the goods sold by Gervais are all food, and none of them are foods that the public has not touched, the ice cubes are better, but the ice cream and golden oysters are all new things, so it takes a certain amount of effort to open the market.

Of course, the advantages are also obvious, since they are all related to eating, taste is the most important, the taste of ice cream and golden oysters needless to say, it has been tested, it is definitely delicious, and now I look at how to open up the situation, there is a way that there is a second time with the first time, how to let people taste this first time, is exactly what Thomas needs to do.

"Very well, Thomas! I'm sorry for you this time! The carriage is almost ready, you go over and get busy! I'll go to Laurie and explain it! ”

"Yes, my lord, take care of me these days when I am away!"

Thomas saluted Gervais respectfully before walking towards the carriage.

"Take a break! Attention! I've seen adults! ”

"Your Excellency!"

When Gervais came to the first squad, one of the guards stood like a green pine, steady as a rock, and raised his head without squinting.

"Today, your team will follow the caravan out of the Storm Territory, this is your first mission since you became a guard, and it is also a mission without me. I hope you will keep in mind the military regulations, always be vigilant, and guard the caravan! ”

"Tell me! Can it be done? ”

"Yes, sir!"

The guards raised their heads and shouted in unison.

"Excellent! I await your triumphant return! ”

Before leaving, Gervais felt that it was necessary, a proper sense of ritual could enhance the cohesion of the guards, if he followed him, it was nothing to say if he just protected the caravan, but he was not there, which meant that their greatest spiritual pillar and greatest deterrent were not there, so Gervais had to make a word of encouragement at this time.

"Laurie, I'll leave the safety of the caravan to you!"

"Yes, my lord, the villain will not let you down!"

When Gervais explained Thomas and Laurie, the convoy was ready to leave at any time, Gervais looked up at the rising sun, and said to everyone, "It's time to go!" ”

"Yes, sir!"

"Let's go!"

As Gervais spoke, Thomas, who was the steward, saluted Gervais respectfully, then turned over and got on his horse, and with an order, the convoy slowly moved, with the sound of horses' hooves and the creaking wheels rolling, a total of 26 people and 5 carriages slowly drove out of the castle, and in the caravan, except for Thomas and Laurie, everyone else was on foot.

Watching the convoy leave the castle, Gervais walked to the stables to check on the group of horses he had acquired yesterday.

"Your Excellency!"

"Your Excellency!"

When Gervais arrived at the stable, there were already a few more faces in the stable, five in all, and these were the serfs that Thomas had drawn from the territory the previous day.

"How are these horses, are they still in peace?"

"My lord, these horses are still wild, and they are still very anxious when they are locked up in the stable!"

Gervais grabbed a groom at random and asked, this groom was already forty or fifty years old, and when he heard Gervais's inquiry, he immediately answered Gervais's question honestly.

Gervais knew nothing about keeping horses, and after listening to the groom's words, he looked into the stables, and saw that the horses, which were kept alone in the stables, were restlessly stamping their hooves, and some of them were still crowing from time to time.

"Adult, the villain thinks that these horses need to be tamed, and then communicate with them more, and after cultivating feelings, the horses will settle down!"

"Oh? Do you know how to raise horses? ”

This surprised Gervais a little, before he came, the entire Storm Territory only had one horse owned by the guard squad, and it was also taken care of by the guards, he didn't expect that this serf in his forties also knew horses, otherwise how could he answer so affirmatively.

"Yes, my lord, the villain was a groom for a while when he was young!"

It is also said that Gervais is lucky, this old serf was a knight's groom when he was young, and he was not from the Duchy of Jean, but was captured by the Jones family because of the war and became a serf, and because of his old age, he was finally assigned to the Storm Collar to help raise cows.

Yesterday afternoon, when Thomas was looking for a groom as Gervais had instructed, of course the first thing he looked for was a serf who could keep livestock, and when he learned that he could not only keep cows, but that he had been a groom before, he immediately brought him to the castle and arranged for the cows to be given to other people.

"What's your name?"

Since there are people who know horses, Gervais can rest assured, according to the value of this world, these war horses are more expensive than people, if one is not careful, the horse is poorly raised, it is definitely a great loss.

"Adult, the villain's name is Kenny Ponytail!"

"Oh, Kenny, you're going to take care of the horses from now on! By the way, you have to teach the four of them your experience as well, and if you do a good job, the reward will be indispensable! ”

It's really a line of love, the surname of this world is so casual, Gervais is used to it, knowing that Kenny has experience with grooms, Gervais did not hesitate to hand over the director of the stable to him, after all, Gervais has no other choice at present, whether Kenny, the director, can do it for a long time, depends on whether he has real skills.

"Thank you, sir!"

Kenny immediately knelt on the ground and saluted Gervais deeply, these are the best war horses! Now that the lord has put the horses in his hands, Kenny feels that his glory days are coming.
