Chapter 286: The New Mansion (Part II)
Arriving in the vestibule of the castle, Gervais rode a unicorn and Pat and waited for Vivien and Bonita to come out.
After last night's events, Gervais can be said to be already a famous nobleman, if nothing else, for the unicorn that Gervais rides underneath him.
How Gervais rescued Alice and how he fought with the orcs, because out of the protection of Gervais, not many people knew.
However, Gervais's unicorn detoxified Gandalf and the others in the banquet hall, and that was done under the watchful eyes of everyone.
Therefore, whether it is Alice's vassals or guests from other places, when they meet Gervais, they will politely come forward to say hello and talk, and take the opportunity to get close to some unicorns.
To be able to have a mount that only a king has, which shows the strength and heritage of Gervais, people used to hear rumors that Gervais was just a lucky little white face, but after last night's incident, people felt that the rumors were not credible.
Let's ask which little white face can have a unicorn, and which little white face can give away two monster crystals at once.
After waiting in the vestibule for a while, Gervais had already met no less than ten nobles who came forward to greet him, and then kept observing the appearance of the unicorn, and Pat's eyes were hot.
Now Pat is completely convinced of Gervais, of course, this is also the expectation he had after his first visit to Gervais Castle, Gervais will definitely soar, but Pat did not expect Gervais to soar so quickly.
Gervais was a baron when he came, but now he is a viscount.
You must know that Pat's own baronial title has been passed down for four or five generations, but he has not improved at all, and he is still standing still.
……
After Bonita and Vivien, Gervais gave the order, and the group left the castle and headed straight for the East End.
The streets of Winterfell were unaware of the impact of last night's events, and the streets were filled with pedestrians, and Gervais and the others soon arrived in the East End square.
From afar, Gervais saw that there were still many aristocratic women and children lining up to buy ice cream in front of his shop.
Instead of stopping at the shop, Gervais walked straight across the square and along the Avenue de Champagne.
As the group moved forward, the street soon became wider and less crowded, and elaborate and tall gates appeared on both sides of the road.
"It should be here, 16 Champagne Boulevard!"
Looking at the door of the mansion in front of him, which was made of white marble and carved with a lot of murals, Gervais took out the deed and reconfirmed it, and found that this was his new mansion.
"Lord Gervais!"
As soon as Gervais rolled over and dismounted, he immediately attracted the attention of the two soldiers on duty at the door.
When the soldier saw Gervais's face and the huge unicorn beneath him, he immediately saluted respectfully and shouted.
"Well, is this Rohr's mansion?"
Gervais nodded and asked the soldier.
"Yes, my lord, Steward Lina has put us on guard here, waiting for you to receive it!"
"Thank you for your hard work! These are for you! ”
Gervais nodded, and pulled a silver coin from his bosom.
The doors of these luxurious mansions are not locked on the outside, and they all need to be locked from the inside, so in order to prevent anyone from sneaking in and destroying them, Lina specially asked people to stay here.
"Thank you, Lord for the reward!"
Seeing that Gervais was so generous, the two soldiers were flattered to take the silver coin from Gervais's hand, and their figures were even more humble and respectful.
"Wow! It's beautiful! Gervais, if we come to Winterfell in the future, will we be able to live with you? ”
At this time, Bonita walked ahead, watching from time to time under the marble gate, still not touching the reliefs on both sides of the door frame, and exclaiming as she touched.
"Let's go, let's go first!"
Ignoring the frizzy Bonita, Gervais led the group straight into his new mansion.
When Gervais walked through the door of the mansion, he was greeted by a large lawn and garden, which was carefully manicured, and it was more appropriate to call it a manor than a mansion.
"Gervais, I'm a little envious of you! If I could, I'd like to trade my castle for this mansion with you! This is the abode of the aristocracy! ”
Pat was also surprised by Gervais's new mansion and joked with Gervais with a smile.
Although the castle is the symbol of every noble lord, most of the castle is considered to be prepared for war, but this manor is really the most suitable place to live.
With an open view, a comfortable environment, and in front of them was a wide, smooth avenue with gardens and lawns on either side of the avenue, which stretched in front of a large two-storey marble building at the forefront.
This marble building is full of the characteristics of medieval architecture, both in shape and craftsmanship, it can represent the highest level of excellence of the world's craftsmen, and Gervais also saw that the rows of windows are actually made of crystal flakes of transparent glass windows, colorful, not only to decorate the whole building more colorful, but also to make the whole room to achieve the best lighting.
"Huh! Pat, if you like it, I'll sell it to you for 3,000 gold coins, how about it, I usually live in the Storm Territory, and I really don't have much time to live here, and it costs a lot to maintain this mansion! ”
Although this mansion is large, it must be taken care of and maintained, and Gervais feels that without a dozen or twenty gold coins invested in a year, it is absolutely impossible to guarantee the maintenance of the mansion.
"I don't have that much money!"
Pat rolled his eyes, although he often came to Winterfell, but as a lord, his territory was still on the border of Jones Territory, so he couldn't be a shopkeeper like some nobles, otherwise it would be more than a week's journey to go back and forth, and I don't know when the territory was lost.
Besides, it is not easy to take out three or four thousand gold coins at one time.
After a few laughs at the door, Gervais and the others came to the front of the main house along the paved stone-paved avenue, and then Gervais pushed the door directly in.
"The cheap wife is still very good to me, and all the home furnishings are still there!"
Looking at the opulent interior of the house, with countless works of art on the walls and in the corridors, Gervais complimented Alice again.
Alice just said that the mansion would be rewarded to him, in fact, if Alice wants to do so, she can move all the valuable things in the house, but seeing the full of various decorations, Gervais knew that Alice definitely didn't touch the things in the house, and it is estimated that he came to search, but only to search some letters and other things.
On the first floor of the building, there is a large hall where balls can undoubtedly be held.
Walking through the hall and along the corridor to the restaurant, the decoration of the restaurant is several notches higher than that of the Golden Castle of Gervais, not only the decoration is elegant, but also the decorations are also full, and even the floor is laid with exquisite glazed tiles, and the lines composed of tiles are full of artistic sense.
"Ah, brother, look, there's a lot of gold here!"
When they arrived in the dining room, Gervais only looked at the decorations around them, but Bonita and Vivien were attracted by the rows of items in some cabinets, and when they came to a cabinet with utensils, they screamed.
I saw that there were more than a dozen sets of knives, forks, cups and bowls made of gold in this exquisite wooden cabinet, and even a few wine jugs were forged in gold, and there were many gems inlaid on them, and the gold was like a work of art.
"It seems that the life of Grand Commander Rohr is very nourishing!"
Gervais let out a sigh, there are really no gold cups and bowls like this, most of the castle are silver vessels, because the gold is too soft, and it takes a lot of money to customize, so the average nobleman only has a small amount of gold utensils to use as decorations.
And the cabinet that Bonita saw had more than a dozen complete sets of dining utensils, which means that Rohr may really have gold utensils for eating.
In this regard, Gervais can only say one sentence: arrogant!
Of course, now that these things belong to him, Gervais is even more grateful to Alice for keeping this mansion intact to himself.
