Chapter 811: Pacifying Caroline
Gervais didn't know that after he was gone, the dwarven blacksmith who had been in his heart had arrived at Fort Holy Bridge.
He was moving forward quickly with a group of newly acquired Sea Clan brothers.
Because there was no carriage of supplies to drag down, although the group was thousands of people, the speed of movement was not slow at all.
Two days later, outside St. Ann's, Caroline waited there with Gandalf and Gust and the others.
Half an hour earlier, the Swift Dragonbird had sent back the news that Gervais was about to arrive.
This time, Gervais has been out for more than half a month, and Caroline really misses him a little.
For this reason, Caroline has dressed up carefully today, and the purple tunic dress completely highlights her proud demeanor.
Coupled with being taken care of by Gervais, she has long since gotten rid of her youth, and now she contains infinite femininity.
Elaborate grooming and a looming femininity directly pushed Caroline's beauty to the peak.
"It's coming! Here it comes! ”
"Gervais has arrived!"
At this moment, at the corner of the road in front of St. Ann's City, a large team finally appeared.
At the foreground was a huge lizard-shaped beast, none other than Gervais's giant crocodile brother.
Suddenly, Gandalf and the others all spoke out.
And Caroline was also full of joy when she heard this, with a sweet smile on her face, and her hands were clenched into fists in front of her chest because of excitement.
Just looking at it, Caroline's brows furrowed slightly.
"Gervais doesn't seem to have brought a maid to serve this time, right? How do you bring back a maid? ”
With such doubts, Caroline couldn't help but take two steps forward and stand in the same row as Gandalf and Gust.
As Gervais and his party got closer, Caroline finally saw the woman's appearance.
"So beautiful! That dress is certainly not a maid! ”
Caroline's heart tugged at once.
……
"Greetings to His Majesty!"
"Gervais, you're finally back!"
"Haha! Father, Count Gust! Why are you still here to greet it, it doesn't have to be so grand! ”
When Gervais came twenty or thirty meters from Gust and the others, he stopped the group.
And Gust, Gandalf and the others immediately greeted respectfully.
Gervais greeted them with a smile on his face before jumping off the crocodile's little brother.
"Gervais!"
"Your Majesty!"
Seeing Gervais coming to the ground, Caroline took Anna's little maid with a silver basin and a towel and immediately greeted her.
Caroline first greeted Gervais sweetly, and then looked at Lolita who jumped off the ground with Gervais.
As for Anna, the little maid didn't think much of it, but immediately handed the towel to Gervais.
"Carolyn, you've worked hard all this time!"
Seeing Caroline's dress, Gervais knew that she was very caring, but at this time, Caroline's eyes looked behind him from time to time, and he immediately realized something.
Immediately wiped her hands with a towel and introduced to Caroline.
"Caroline, the lady behind me is the eldest lady of the Holy Merchant House, and I want to come over to discuss the matter of wine, and come to St. Ann's City for a few days by the way!"
In order to avoid the exposure that the Sacred Trading House was founded by the Sea Clan, now in front of everyone, Gervais still told a small lie.
This was Vaodin's request to Gervais when he was leaving.
In this regard, Gervais temporarily agreed, after all, there is no direct conflict between the Sea Clan and the Sea Clan at present.
"Hello, Sister Carolyn! My name is Lolita! ”
And Lolita had already sensed the hostility when she saw Caroline looking at her.
I wondered who she was, but when she heard Gervais call out Caroline's name, Lolita instantly remembered.
When Gervais was still in the City of Hope, wasn't it Caroline who had full authority to negotiate the sale of wine on Gervais's behalf.
Such a person must have an extraordinary relationship with Gervais.
And if she wants to achieve good things with Gervais, she may have to pass Caroline's level, so Lolita deliberately lowered her posture and politely shouted to Caroline sister.
"It turned out to be Miss Lolita from the Holy Firm! Welcome to St. Ann's! ”
Although Caroline still had some doubts in her heart, she stretched out her hand not to hit the smiling man, and she had heard about the energy of the Divine Merchant House a long time ago, and she also greeted Lolita with a smile.
"Let's go! We're in the city! ”
Seeing Caroline's lifeless expression, Gervais finally breathed a sigh of relief.
After all, Caroline is the person who really has a 'name' with him except for Alice, and it will be embarrassing if she makes a fuss.
"Okay Gervais, the city has food ready!"
Caroline nodded immediately and answered Gervais.
……
"Gervais, how are these Sea Clan soldiers settled!"
As Gervais approached by Gandalf, Gandalf spoke to Gervais.
"Oh, I almost forgot!"
Knowing this, Gervais remembered for this, and then turned to the five Sea Clan captains and commanded.
"Just stay in the moat!"
Although St. Ann's City is a small city, there is also a moat, and the moat is connected to a medium-sized river two miles away, which is enough for these 3,000 Sea Clan soldiers to move!
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
The five Sea Clan captains replied respectfully.
After that, Gervais led everyone back to St. Ann's City, and the natives of the Sea Tribes began to dive into the moat in an orderly manner.
"It's amazing, when I was in Eurasia, I didn't expect there to be such a race!"
Caroline and the others exclaimed when they saw this scene.
……
Back in the city, after a sumptuous luncheon in the temple, Gervais returned to the back garden.
And Lolita, the little princess of the Sea Clan, also followed with a dead face, saying that she was unfamiliar with life, and she was a little scared if she was too far away from Gervais.
In this regard, Gervais had no choice but to arrange her in a guest room in the small building.
This situation made Caroline frown frequently.
In this regard, Gervais naturally wanted to appease Caroline and calm her emotions.
Especially can't live up to her exquisite dress today.
After nearly an hour of 'reassuring exchanges', Caroline's mood finally calmed down a lot.
……
"So, this Lolita is also a sea clan! And it's also the little princess of the Sea Clan! ”
Caroline was sitting at a dresser, sorting out her hair that had been messed up by the 'preaching' of Gervais.
After hearing the true identity of this Lolita, she couldn't help but be surprised.
"Yes!"
Gervais looked at Caroline's pretty face with a flush, full of accomplishment, and immediately replied when he heard the inquiry.
"Then why doesn't she have those sea tribe-like scales and gills?"
Caroline continued to ask suspiciously.
"Well, according to Lolita herself, her mother is the most unique race in the ocean, called mermaids!"
"And she's different from the rest of the Sea Clan because she looks like her mother!"
Gervais also listened to Lolita's own explanation, after all, it was impossible to sit with this chick for two days without saying a word.
"Mermaid!"
Caroline naturally didn't know what a mermaid was, but she didn't bother, anyway, she didn't know anything about the races of the Holy Continent.
"That...... Gervais, you said that she came with you to marry you, then you won't agree! ”
Compared to why Lolita is different from ordinary sea tribes, Caroline cares most about the latter point.
In the past, except for Alice, Gervais belonged to her.
But now that she has a competitor, and she is still so good, she is afraid that she will be left out in the cold.
"If I had agreed, I would have agreed a long time ago!"
When Gervais saw Caroline's appearance and knew what was going on in her heart, he immediately swore to comfort her.
"And Caroline, don't worry, no matter what, except for Alice, my heart is you! Your place in my heart will never change! ”
Gervais is a statement to Caroline about her status, no matter whether there are others in the future, but her Caroline's status will never change.
"Hmm!"
"Gervais, you're so nice!"
When Caroline heard this promise, she was immediately happy!
Although, the meaning of Gervais's words may be that there will be other people in the future.
However, when in Eurasia, it was not uncommon for nobles to find lovers.
Especially now that Gervais's status is so high and so good, it is impossible to think that there are no girls who like him.
All she wanted was to have a place in Gervais's heart forever.
As for how many confidantes Gervais has in the end, this matter should be taken care of by Alice, the wife.
……
After continuing to talk to Caroline in the bedroom, Gervais took advantage of the darkness to leave St. Ann's City and come to the gathering place.
In the gathering place, he found Bernard directly.
"Your Majesty!"
"Bernard, it seems that you have worked hard this time! Broke through to become a Golden Knight! ”
When Gervais saw Bernard, he immediately realized that he had broken through.
"This is thanks to Your Majesty's gift, if it weren't for that strengthening potion, I would have to wait for several years to break through!"
Today, Bernard has become extremely respectful of Gervais.
This is certainly not because of Gervais's change of identity.
It was because Gervais eradicated the church and avenged him.
In addition, it is because now Alec has also grown rapidly under Gervais and has reached the peak of the Bronze Knight.
Such a growth rate, in Bernard's opinion, is very incredible, and it is inseparable from Gervais's care.
"Huh! Don't say thank you to me, you deserve it! ”
"By the way, Bernard, I have something here that you want you to build for me!"
After talking about the old days, Gervais took out the figure of the still, and several guards behind him carried the small still in the City of Hope.
"Yes, Your Majesty! Something like this can be built in three days! ”
The stills weren't really technical, but Gervais was forging a large one this time, so it took some time.
"Hmmm! OK! ”
Hearing the three-day time, Gervais did not urge.
There is no sign of the dwarves coming, so there is no hurry.
The most important thing is that he has not yet arranged to make his own wheat wine, and it is estimated that it will be a few months before the wheat machine is actually brewed.
And Gervais's return this time also hoarded a large amount of dwarven fire wine to deal with the dwarves who may come next.
……
After arranging the stills at the blacksmith's workshop, Gervais did not immediately return to St. Ann's City, but took Caroline with him to arrange the place where the winery was built.
This hellfire wine is different from wine, wine is not made of grapes in the outside world.
But the hellfire wine is different.
As long as the dwarf knew the role of the still, then his hellfire wine would not smell good for a minute.
"Carolyn, you build a winery here, I've already drawn the plan!"
Immediately, Gervais took out a simple diagram drawn idly on the road, which was actually a small closed fortress.
The surrounding wall is seven or eight meters high, and there is only one doorway to enter and exit.
In this way, it will be possible to ensure that the idle people and others cannot mix in the brewery, after all, the Hellfire Liquor is a high level of liquor that can 'control' the dwarves.
No force will not be tempted, and he must plan for a rainy day.
"Okay, Gervais! I'll arrange it for the goblin chachael later! ”
Caroline got the blueprints and put them away.
"Well, then you and Anna will help me again!"
As for the matter of this wheat wine, because it was the first operation, Gervais had to do it himself.
Although he remembered a little bit of the process of making wheat wine in his previous life, he did not remember as much as wine.
It's just that I know that the wheat should be soaked well, and then it is steamed, steamed and cooled, and the koji is added, and then it is fermented.
The most important of these steps is undoubtedly koji and fermentation.
Koji is made by grinding wheat and peas into a powder and adding them in proportion, then adding water to mix, and then putting them at a specific temperature to wait for them to become moldy to form koji.
With the help of Caroline and Anna's maid, Gervais quickly prepared several portions of koji ingredients in different proportions.
These raw materials, Anna's little maid, have been carefully recorded and marked.
These different proportions of koji raw materials are then mixed with water, and then taken to different environments to wait for him to ferment to produce mold.
Gervais remembered that the temperature at which mold was produced was important, so he made two portions of each portion.
Half of it was in the sacred forest, and the other part was taken to the Godfall.
Because the climate temperature of the Godfall and the Sacred Forest is different, this allows Gervais to maximize the success of koji making.
After everything was done, Gervais returned to the temple and began to cultivate hard.
……
Early the next morning, Gervais woke up leisurely.
"Hmm! Still comfortable in your own bed! ”
It's been a long time since Gervais has been so comfortable to sleep well, and the smell of Caroline on the quilt is indescribably comfortable.
Knock knock!
"Come in!"
Now that Gervais has returned, Anna's little maid will naturally stay outside the door in the morning and wait for Gervais to get up and wash up.
Hearing the knock on the door, Gervais didn't think much about it, and directly ordered.
Smack!
Then the door opened, and Gervais looked towards it, stunned.
"Lolita, why are you here!"
"I'll help you get up and wash up!"
Faced with Gervais's inquiry, Lolita replied very naturally.
"Just let Anna do something like this!"
To be honest, Lolita's appearance really made Gervais a little unbearable.
I don't know why Lolita's cold and glamorous appearance changed so quickly, and the dignified little princess of the Sea Clan rushed to be a servant!
"How can this work, in case we get married in the future! I'm going to help you get dressed and washed myself, so now I'm going to start learning early! ”
