Chapter 152 Caravan Departure

Early the next morning, the forecourt of the castle was already bustling with activity. Each guard was fully armed, and even Gervis's special combat vest was worn outside. 14 guards, including Laurie, lined up to wait for the motorcade.

departure.

The servants of the castle carefully loaded boxes of goods for sale on carriages. There were five carriages in the vestibule. It was these carriages that Gervais owned after intercepting Lenny's convoy, but Gervais

Of course Si would not be so stupid as to use the stolen carriage openly.

Lanny's carriages had actually been exchanged with Gervase's carriages when he returned from Nashen. Gervase's carriages were used by Gandalf to transport supplies, and Lanny's carriages had already been brought to Gandalf's territory.

"Thomas, this time the important task of the caravan is in your hands! I hope you can bring wealth for me and the Storm Tie."

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

"Sir, I must try my best. If I make any mistakes, you can ask me for questioning!"

Doing business this time is not difficult, but it is not easy either.

Because this was their first time doing business, Gervais's subordinates did not have any experience to be strict. The products Gervais sold were all foods, and they were not foods that the public had never been exposed to. Ice cubes were better, but ice cream was better.

and golden oysters are both new products, so it will take some effort to open the market.

Of course, there are obvious advantages. Since it is all about eating, taste is the most important. Needless to say, the taste of ice cream and golden oysters has been tested and it is definitely delicious. Now it is time to see how to open up the situation. Youdao has the third

Once there is a second time, how to let people taste this first time is exactly what Thomas needs to do.

"Very well, Thomas! It's your fault this time! The carriage is almost ready, go and get busy! I'll go to Laurie's to explain it!"

"Yes, sir, please take care of yourself these days when I'm not around!"

Thomas bowed respectfully to Gervais and then walked towards the carriage.

"Take a break! Stand at attention! I've seen you, sir!"

"grown ups!"

When Gervais came to the first team, each guard stood like a green pine, as steady as a rock, with their chests raised and their heads raised, their eyes fixed.

"Today, your team will leave the Storm Territory with the caravan. This is your first mission since you became guards, and it is also a mission without my leadership. I hope you can remember the military regulations, stay vigilant at all times, and guard the caravan.

!”

"Tell me! Can you do it?"

"Yes, sir!"

The guards raised their chests and raised their heads and shouted in unison.

"Very good! I'm waiting for your triumphant return!"

Gervais felt that the training before leaving was necessary. A proper sense of ceremony could strengthen the cohesion of the guards. If they were to follow him, they would just protect the caravan, so there was nothing to say. But if he was not there, it would be equal to their

The biggest spiritual support and biggest deterrent were not there, so Gervais had to give some words of encouragement at this time.

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

"Yes, sir, I will not let you down!"

After Gervais handed over Thomas and Laurie, the team was ready and ready to set off at any time. Gervais looked up at the rising sun and said to everyone: "It's time to set off!"

"Yes, sir!"

"Set off!"

As Gervais spoke, Thomas, who was in charge, bowed respectfully to Gervais, then got on his horse and gave an order. The convoy began to move slowly, with the sound of horse hooves clattering and creaking.

With the sound of rolling wheels, a total of 26 people and 5 carriages slowly drove out of the castle. Except for Thomas and Laurie, everyone in the caravan was on foot.

After watching the convoy leave the castle, Gervais walked to the stables to check out the group of horses he had obtained yesterday.

"grown ups!"

"grown ups!"

When Gervais came to the stable, there were already a few new faces in the stable, five people in total. These people were the serfs Thomas had just transferred from the territory yesterday.

"How are these horses? Are they still calm?"

"Sir, because these horses are still wild, and they are still very anxious after being locked up in the stables!"

Gervais randomly grabbed a groom and asked him. The groom seemed to be in his forties or fifties. When he heard Gervais' question, he immediately answered Gervais's question honestly.

Gervais knew nothing about raising horses. After listening to the groom's words, he looked towards the stables and saw the horses that were kept alone in the stables. They were all stamping their hooves restlessly, and some horses even whined low from time to time.

"Sir, I think these horses need to be tamed, and then you can interact with them more. After developing a relationship, the horses will settle down!"

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

This surprised Gervais. Before he came, only the guard team in the entire Storm Territory owned a horse, and it was also taken care of by the guards. He had not expected that this serf in his forties also knew horses.

Otherwise, how could you answer so surely?

"Yes, sir, I worked as a groom for a period of time when I was young!"

It is said that Gervais was lucky. This old serf was a knight's groom when he was young. He was not from the Principality of Jean. He was captured by the Jones family because of the war and became a serf. Because of his old age, he was finally assigned

Storm collar, help raise cows.

Yesterday afternoon, when Thomas followed Gervais' instructions to look for the groom, of course the first thing he looked for was a serf who could raise livestock. After learning that he not only raised cows, but was also a groom, he immediately brought him to the castle.

, and assigned those cows to others.

"May I have your name?"

Since there are people who understand horses, Gervais can feel relieved. According to the value in this world, these war horses are more expensive than people. If someone accidentally cares about the horses, it will definitely be a big loss.

"Sir, my name is Kenny Ponytail!"

"Oh, Kenny, then you will be responsible for managing and taking care of the horses from now on! By the way, you have to teach the four of them your experience. If you do a good job, you will be rewarded!"

You really do what you do and love what you do. Surnames in this world are so casual. Gervais is used to it. Knowing that Kenny has experience as a groom, Gervais handed over the director of the stable to him without hesitation.

After all, Gervais has no other choice at the moment. Whether Kenny can be a supervisor for a long time depends on his real ability.

"Thank you, sir!"
