Chapter 278: The Second Manor Meeting (Part II)

(Thank you for the tips from students who like mini, thank you for your support!)

Jeff and Eric were finally debriefed, and then Leon asked the veteran directly opposite, "Jack, how is your progress there?"

"Report to your lordship!" said old Jack, who was suddenly questioned by name, and his habit made him respond loudly at once, and then he was about to stand up on crutches.

"Jack, don't stand up, we don't have so many rules," Leon immediately stopped, but seeing that the other party's face was insistent, he also stood up and strode over to press the severely disabled veteran to the chair.

The young lord lowered his voice and leaned over into Jack's ear and said, "You see we are all young people, didn't Jeff and Eric just stand up either? ”

Surrounded by some deaf and clear-eyed young people, the place was small and quiet, and Leon could be heard by everyone even if he spoke in a low voice, but he meant to make Jack feel at ease, and it didn't matter if the others could hear it or not.

Old Jack's face turned red, he knew that he was a little excited just now, and he gradually calmed down when he heard a few words in Leon's low voice.

Leon returned to his seat, inadvertently glanced to the left, and found that the faces of several girls were a little strange, as if they were holding back a smile. Looking to the right again, he found that Jeff and Eric were looking at him with bitter faces, knowing that what they had just said inadvertently made them carry the black cauldron, and wanted to comfort them, but the appearance of these two people was really funny, and in the end he had to turn his attention to Jack as much as possible with a straight face, but the corners of his mouth twitched slightly.

"Two Living Treasures...... It's not easy for people to maintain such a mentality in middle age!"

As for the veteran Jack, he didn't notice the hiccup on the other side, and reported the veterans' association he was in charge of very seriously.

During this time, Jack contacted two former comrades-in-arms, who are now also retired veterans, and their condition is slightly better than Jack's, at least they are not physically disabled, and they can barely survive on a meager pension. After receiving a letter from their best comrades-in-arms to meet them, the two men set off separately and arrived at Campbell five days later, where they were picked up by Jeff in a special carriage.

When they discovered that the situation of their former colleagues had changed from what they had done before, and that the young lord of Campbell had such a noble and respectable plan, the veterans felt like a dream. They were incredulous at first, but soon realized that it should be true, and they were a little moved by the excitement, so they immediately responded to Jack's invitation to join the work of organizing the Veterans Guild together.

Once the enthusiasm of the veterans was aroused, it was even faster than the movements of the young people, and they only rested for half a day, and then after half a day of deliberation, they decided on the first target - the four towns in the south.

However, the brown bear town of the four southern towns has been empty, and the remaining lords of Rock Town, Brown Earth Town and Ansai Town have just made rounds, so they are relatively familiar with the situation, and the sheriffs of each town have already received the news in advance, and with their assistance, the veterans quickly fed back the first-hand information.

Old Jack pursed his somewhat dry lips when he said this, and then said: "But you said that this matter can't be rushed, and it can't attract too much attention, so I only put the information of the five veterans that have been confirmed on record, and then I will start to slowly contact them and provide some preliminary funding." ”

"It's progressing well," Li Ang affirmed, "but you're not too young, and your physical condition is not as good as that of young people, don't worry, when there are more people involved in the future, the influence will not be as troublesome as at the beginning." ”

Another matter was settled, and Leon sighed and turned his gaze to Singel, who had been sitting quietly.

It seemed that the elven old man had been prepared for a long time, and when he found that the young man had looked over, he sat up straight and said, "There are only a few scattered beasts in the forest on this side of the manor, so my side is going very smoothly and there is no trouble." ”

Without waiting for Leon to say anything, he then said, "After Luna came back this time, I found that her strength seemed to have improved, and she could already sense the fourth natural spell, and I wanted her to stay by her side for a while so that she could give advice at any time." ”

"That's a good thing," Leon was pleasantly surprised, he didn't expect Luna's potential to be even better than he thought, "I remember you said that as long as you comprehend five spells, you can be promoted to a junior druid, and I believe that Luna's potential will not be far from this day." ”

Singal bowed in gratitude, then hesitated for a moment before speaking again, "Other...... The next time you go out, can you let a Ranger rotate with Thor, anyway, I don't have anything to do here, so I might as well give him a chance to go out and exercise. ”

Li Ang showed a knowing smile, he knew that this idea was probably Se's idea, but he was too embarrassed to say it directly, so it was proposed by Singhal in this way. But it's nothing, after all, the increase in the strength of the elves is also good for themselves, so I readily agreed.

By now, the report that should be reported, the solution that should be solved is almost solved, Li Ang put his hand on the table and tapped lightly, brewing language and began to arrange a new round of tasks.

"Eric, I think I'll leave the task of recruiting to you at the same time, you have more contact with these young people, and getting to know more about it will also help you select ten people to help you in the end," Leon first said to the gangster leader on his right: "As long as you remember my arrangement, the most suitable group of candidates is the future territory soldiers, and the general candidates will be organized into patrols, as for the kind words that really can't be persuaded to go back, I believe you will do a good job." ”

"Yes, my lord!" replied Eric.

"Fort Mark's troops are insufficient now, if there is another large number of enemies to invade, it is likely that assistance will be needed, Jeff, you send someone to communicate with Deputy Commander Luther, it is best to establish a channel of communication, in case of an accident in Fort Markham or other places, we can support each other, and this time I will not be too far away, if there is an emergency, notify me like last time." ”

"In addition, Deputy Commander Luthor has promised to provide a few instructors, and this time you will also mention it together to see if he can still send people now, if it really can't ......"

Speaking of which, Leon's eyes scanned between the crowds, and found that there was really no suitable candidate, Caterina could, but the next trip needed to be accompanied by the knight girl, and finally had to fall on Red's body.

The big man suddenly became nervous, and shook his head at Li Ang again and again. Red had just experienced the fall of the Flame Soul, and all his brothers had died in the underground caverns, and he still blamed himself for it, and really didn't want to take on any similar responsibilities again.

When Li Ang saw Red's appearance, he immediately understood what the other party was worried about, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart. Although he believed that this rough man would definitely get rid of the shadow in his heart one day in the future, it was really not time to burden him anymore.

“...... If you can't do it, let it go, and when I get back, let Caterina take care of training the recruits. ”

At the mention of the recruits, Leon thought of another thing, he went back to look at Eric and said, "Those few of your men are familiar with the chaotic capital, find the nearest one, and let him go back in the next two days." ”

"I'll give you a list in a moment, and I'll have him give it to Edward when the time comes, and I'll urge him to do everything he can to get these things delivered. ”

"No problem!" Eric patted his chest and reassured, then he was suddenly stunned and said in a slur manner, "What about the money?"

"Cash on delivery. ”

After saying this, the young lord noticed that the expression of the old gangster leader had become extremely strange, and couldn't help but ask, "What's wrong with you?"

Eric scratched his head and said with some embarrassment, "I've been in the City of Chaos for so many years, and I've heard that President Edward is not a good man...... Would he really agree to send something over first?"

Eric wasn't quite aware of the private agreement between the current president of the Skyrim Chamber of Commerce and the young lord, so he only extrapolated from his own knowledge of Edward. Although Edward seems to be a kind person and almost never loses a smile on his face, old fritters like Eric, who have been in the lower reaches of the lower city for many years, often hear secret rumors about some big people, including the president of the Skyrim Chamber of Commerce who has been in the chaotic capital for several years.

That's a character who eats people without spitting out bones, and kills without seeing blood!

"Don't worry," Leon smiled mysteriously, "just do as I say, and you can add a sentence that I have good things here, and let Edward send someone trustworthy." ”

Eric hesitated, but finally took on the task, for there was nothing that the young man in front of him could not do so far, maybe he could really let Edward carry this batch of supplies honestly?
