Chapter 176: Departure !!

After asking all about the caravan, Gervais told Thomas to go back and wash up and rest.

After Thomas was gone, Gervais rubbed his palms together and picked up the two bulging money bags.

Crash~

Gervais poured out the gold coins in the two money bags, and saw two piles of golden gold coins piled up on the square table in front of Gervais.

"Haha! This is a fortune! In the future, how can I be as arrogant and inhuman as Pat's little fat man! ”

Gervais's eyes lit up, and his palm gently caressed the two piles of gold, at this moment he felt that when he first came to the territory, the small target he set on the withered leaf river was a little smaller, and he felt that he could be more rigid.

"Do you want to set a small goal again? Let's say make 2 million gold coins first! ”

Gervais's appearance at the moment was typical of getting carried away, but Gervais thought about it for a while, and then thought that Brian's enhancement fee had not yet been paid, so he immediately shook his head like a deflated balloon, and said to himself: "Forget it!" The small goal will not be changed first! To be a man, you must know how to be content! ”

Gervais counted the two piles of gold coins, and after confirming that the number was correct, he put them in a new money bag and put them in his arms.

The caravan brought back a total of 44 gold coins to Gervais, of which 33 were earned by gold oysters, but the caravan of gold oysters this time had already turned half of the Jones territory, and the next departure could earn this amount of gold coins at most once, and the speed was even faster, so as not to spread the technology of roasting gold oysters privately by other nobles.

As for the ice, it can be sold every year, it is a consumable, and the profit is also high, except for ice cream, the profit of the ice cube is only in the labor cost, of course, the ice cube is only needed in summer.

"Next, it's up to me to make my wine!"

Gervais's wine has been made, there are about 45 barrels, if divided into small pots, it can hold about 2,300 pots, 2,300 pots sounds less, but if you want to convert it to the calculation unit on the earth, it is about 4,600 liters, thanks to the fact that many serfs have sent the remaining grapes one after another.

1 pot of wine for 10 silver coins, and 2300 pots is about 230 gold coins, and Gervais felt that if he sold these wines this time, he would be able to enjoy them for a while in peace and comfort.

The serfs tasted the sweetness of the grapes this year, and they all protected the grapes they found, and Gervais found that the grapes were easy to survive after transplanting, so he asked Anna to issue a notice to allow the serfs to transplant the grapes they found to their fields or near their homes, which not only made it convenient for the serfs to pick grapes during harvest, but also allowed the grapes to be carefully cared for.

When Gervais's proclamation was issued, all the serfs stopped what they were doing, and the whole family, young and old, went out into the forest to transplant vines.

……

"My lord, Baron Pat's messenger has arrived, saying that Baron Pat will depart on time for the sun to rise this morning, and that he will meet you on the bridge of the Withered Leaf River!"

In the dining room, Gervais was elegantly eating breakfast in a luxurious silk shirt, when Butler Thomas walked in from outside the dining room and respectfully reported to Gervais.

"Oh, so Baron Pat is almost off now, how's the preparation going outside?"

Gervais took the scarf handed by the servant and wiped it on his hand before looking at Thomas, although it was still morning and the sun had just risen, Thomas was already sweating profusely.

"My lord, the convoy has been loaded, and your personal guard is ready to go!"

"Excellent! Then let the messenger go back and tell Baron Pat that I will be there on time!" ”

"Yes, sir!"

Thomas listened to Gervais's instructions and immediately nodded and exited the restaurant.

That's right, Gervais is leaving for Rose Castle today, although Alice's birthday is still 10 days away, but it will take four or five days to get there all the way, and Gervais also wants to take this opportunity to visit Winterfell.

The most important thing is that he needs to handle his wines himself, and Gervais also wants to see if there is a suitable store in Winterfell, buy one, and then specialize in selling wine, ice cubes, and other specialties of Storm Collar, so that he will have a steady stream of income.

Of course, the shops in Winterfell are very Gregeris also knows, and he thinks that the East End can't afford it, but the South District grits its teeth and there should still be hope.

"Anna, did Eve bring it?"

When Thomas had retired, Gervais lifted the silver cup, took a sip of milk, and began to question Anna again.

This time, Gervais only planned to bring Eve and an elven worm with him when he went to Winterfell, and as for Betty, because of the long distance, Gervais did not plan to bring it, so he put it in the study, and usually let Thomas take care of it.

After the elf insects recognized the master, as long as the owner did not die, they would stay in the jade box obediently, not afraid of stealing or losing, so Gervais was very relieved.

As for taking Eve to Winterfell, Gervais is actually reluctant to get the opportunity to get energy points, since killing the kobold leader and allowing Gervais to get a little energy point, Gervais has been thinking about Eve's orc space, the orc space can be opened once a week, and Gervais can open it at least twice this time when he goes to Winterfell, so he doesn't want to miss it.

As for whether there is an orc leader every time, Gervais will not consider it for the time being, and when the space will be opened, he will naturally know.

"My lord, I've brought it! It's already in the saddle! ”

Anna is also wearing a silk maid outfit today, as Gervais's personal maid, she also needs to follow, and when she heard Gervais's inquiry, she quickly replied obediently.

"Well, that's good! Then let's go! ”

With that, Gervais put down the glass in his hand and got up and walked out of the restaurant.

In the vestibule, it was already full of people at the moment, and the courtyard was full of cars and horses.

There were a total of 10 carriages in the vestibule, five of which were newly purchased for the caravan, and although the carriages were new, the horses were made of the ordinary horses of the castle of Gervais.

Seven of the wagons would follow Gervais to Winterfell, five to carry the wine, barrels of wine that had been securely loaded into the wagons, and two to carry what Gervais needed to take with him to Winterfell.

"Your Excellency!"

"Audrey, the safety of the caravan this time is in your hands!"

In the vestibule, Gervais came directly in front of Audri, who and the seven guards of the second squad were already lined up and ready to go.

However, they were not going to follow Gervais, but to follow the squad that sold the golden oysters, and the other three carriages in the vestibule were for the golden oyster caravans, and this time the guards were replaced by Audri and his seven guards.

"Please rest assured, my subordinates will complete the task!"

"Good!"

With Audri's assurance, Gervais didn't say anything more, the oyster caravan was already the second departure, so he didn't have to worry much, as for security, with 8 guards to follow, unless a noble lord really wanted to rob the caravan, ordinary thieves still couldn't pose a threat.

Leaving Audrey's team, Gervais went directly to the cultivation space and pulled out the unicorn, sat on the back of the horse, Gervais slowly came to the front of the convoy full of wine, and shouted: "Let's go!" ”

At the order of Gervais, 11 heavily armed guards who were already sitting on horses immediately moved, with long swords on their waists, round shields on their backs, chain mail and leather armor, and helmets on their heads, so to speak, armed to the teeth, and arquebuses placed behind the saddles.

Two guards rode quickly in front of Gervais with the banner of the god of the storm in their hands, the banners in their hands hunting in the summer wind, while the other guards ran to the sides of the six carriages and followed the procession.
