Chapter 165 Go to Rose Castle
"Thank you Captain Anthony, Captain Anthony. It's such a hot day. Come over and try some ice cream to cool off!"
At this moment, Thomas and Anthony were having a pleasant conversation. Thomas saw that the crowd over there was still waiting, so he no longer delayed and invited Anthony to go to the motorcade.
"Thank you very much, Butler Thomas!"
Only then did Anthony realize that he had just interrupted the business of Gervais's caravan, and now the crowd over there was still waiting, so he immediately followed Thomas's words and agreed.
After finishing speaking, the three of them quickly returned to the motorcade.
"Johnny, serve ten bowls of ice cream to the city guards to cool down. It's such a hot day and the city guards are still patrolling in armor. It's too hard!"
After returning to the motorcade, Thomas immediately ordered Johnny to serve some ice cream to the guards. Although Anthony was frightened by the names of Gervais and Alice, the tactful Thomas knew that he could use force to overwhelm Anthony.
People are most perfect when they work together with advantages and temptations. After all, I can't help Gervais offend others for no reason.
"Thank you, Butler Thomas! Why don't you guys thank Butler Thomas? By the way, you guys should spread out and help maintain the order of the crowd!"
Gervais and Alice are only a couple in name. Of course, little people like Anthony don't know why. Now Thomas invites them to eat ice cream. He regards it as a reward from the Earl's husband, so he accepts it happily, and also looks towards himself.
Nine of his subordinates gave orders to help maintain order at the scene.
"Thank you, Butler Thomas!"
Although the guards didn't know how Anthony could change so quickly, it didn't matter. Anyway, even if something happened, Anthony would be the one to take care of it. They just had to follow the orders, so they thanked Thomas one by one, then dispersed to protect him.
Bring order to the scene.
Anthony's order and the actions of the city guards made the nobles at the scene feel a little bored. Why did they look like they were going to stir up trouble just now, but now they started to take the initiative to maintain order.
Could it be that what we encountered today were fake city guards? You must know that the city guards in the East District are notoriously strict, because they belong to the Knights of the Rose. The Knights of the Rose are the trump card of the Jones family, and each one has a title.
Knights are of course very disciplined.
"Ahem! Didn't you just want to buy ice cream? If you want to buy it, hurry up. The quantity of ice cream is limited, first come first served!"
After Johnny carried the filled ice cream and distributed it to the guards, Thomas stood on the high platform again and shouted loudly to the crowd in front of him.
"I want 3 cans!"
"I want 1 can!"
"..."
Following Thomas' reminder, everyone finally realized that no matter why the city guards had such a change, they should finish buying the ice cream first. I don't know if they can taste such delicious food next time!
In this way, as the crowd gathered, Gervais spent many days making the accumulated ice cream, but it was sold out in just one day.
Of course, the harvest was not cheap, more than 500 cans of ice cream were sold in total, and five golden coins were put into the money bag, which was carefully placed in Thomas's arms.
Five gold coins sounds small, but it is actually a huge amount of money. You must know that Gandalf has a population of tens of thousands, and five years of tax revenue only costs more than 1,000 gold coins. Gervais's ice cream sells for more than five gold coins in one day.
, excluding the cost, you still earn more than four gold coins. In the eyes of Thomas and others, this is as easy as picking up money.
Moreover, the market has been opened today. There is no need to give it to everyone for free in the future, and the profits will be even higher.
"Captain Anthony, thank you for your help today!"
The ice cream was sold out and it was already dusk now, but Anthony's team was still guarding the convoy.
"Butler Thomas, you're welcome. This is what I should do, and I have already gone back and reported it, and the superior has approved it!"
Anthony's team was stationed in this square for half a day. Of course, it was impossible not to notify his superiors. Anthony returned to the station alone in the middle and reported the situation here to the squadron leader. He immediately received permission, allowing him to guard here with peace of mind and ensure the caravan.
of safety.
As for the patrol, it will naturally be arranged for another team. Just kidding, the earl's husband's caravan must of course show enough respect. You must know that everything they have is given by the earl. This Winterfell
It's like the Earl's back garden, and the Earl's husband certainly has privileges here.
"Captain Anthony, these two cans of ice cream are for you and Mr. Eagle. These crushed ice will be given to the nine guard brothers who help maintain order. I would like to thank you for your help today on behalf of my master. Please accept it!"
With that said, Thomas pointed to the 11 clay pots beside the carriage and said to Anthony.
Although the ice cream for Anthony and Eagle was in a can, only half of the can was left in the corner. Thomas simply made the decision for Gervais and gave it to Anthony and Eagle.
After all, the two of them helped a lot today. As for the crushed ice, they were all used to keep the ice cream warm. For safety, they were made of salt water separated by copper basins and can also be eaten.
"Thank you, Baron Gervais, but I will be disrespectful!"
The delicious taste of ice cream was something Anthony would never forget in his life, and Thomas also said that this was a reward from Gervais, so he accepted it immediately without any hesitation.
"Thank you, Lord Baron Gervais!"
When the pots were distributed to the guards one by one, and feeling the coldness of the pots, everyone said words of gratitude from the bottom of their hearts.
…
After packing up the motorcade and saying goodbye to Anthony, Thomas led the motorcade in the direction of Roseburg. After all, Alice was Gervase's wife. His caravan came to Winterfell. There was no reason why he should not understand Alice's reasoning.
, and when he came this time, Gervais specially asked Thomas to bring a gift.
In addition to giving some ice cream to Alice to taste, he also brought 20 kilograms of Warcraft meat, which is the meat of the tricolor deer. Because he only gave away 10 kilograms last time, Gervais always felt that he was quite unable to get rid of it.
This time I hunted another magical beast, and I asked Thomas to send it to him immediately to make up for it.
Gervais's cheap daddy was not left behind, he also sent 20 kilograms, and even Nashen also had two kilograms. The Warcraft meat for Gandalf and Nashen will be sent by the convoy of Jimmy's two apprentices.
They will also go to Gandalf's castle to bake oysters for them.
Gervais clearly remembers who is kind to him. As long as the situation allows, he will definitely repay kindness and revenge. This is his code of conduct!
"Stop, who is it?"
When Thomas led the convoy along the Central Axis Street to the gate of the city wall between Winterfell and Roseburg, he was stopped by the guard on duty!
"We are subordinates of Lord Gervais, Lord of Stormwind. My master has asked us to come to Rose Castle to meet the Earl and give him some gifts. Please inform him!"
Although Thomas came from Rose Castle, he was just a small servant before. There were more than a few hundred servants in Rose Castle. Of course, no one knew him, so Thomas took out a note stamped with Gervais's mark and handed it to him.
Gave it to the guard!
"You guys wait here, I'll report inside!"
Hearing that Thomas was not timid at all, he directly asked to see the Earl by name. The guard did not dare to neglect, took the note from Thomas, and walked into the gate. Although he did not know who Baron Gervais was, as long as he
