In fact, neither Raymond nor Catherine knew that Nalant's promise was just a smooth sailing.
Narant had already thought about how to deal with Quint a few days ago. Whether Raymond and others would surrender, he would take this opportunity to give Quint a hard blow.
…
One day later, inside the Black Rock Territory Castle.
"Sir, what does the drill mean?" Ibi, the captain of the guard, asked in confusion after listening to his master's words.
"It's a good thing that you are my guard captain! You don't even know the drill. The drill is to rehearse the battle scenes in advance, just like how you usually train to slash!"
"Oh! It turns out it's a battle practice, sir, I understand!" Ibi answered with his head shrinking, secretly sighing in his heart that nobles are indeed nobles, they train just as they train, and they still have to talk about drills that are incomprehensible.
Boris watched Ibi's eyes moving wildly, but didn't say anything else.
In fact, this was also the first time he heard the word drill. If Narant hadn't explained it, he wouldn't have understood the meaning.
After a moment of pause, Captain Ibi cautiously spoke again: "Sir, do we want to go? It's been several days. I really don't dare to stay in the Land of Doom for too long!"
"Go, of course go, our Black Rock Territory has an offensive and defensive alliance agreement with Nalant! His main purpose this time is probably to frighten Baron Quint. We currently have a sugar trade with Nalant, so we must help him
!" Boris did not hesitate. Since his last trip to the Land of Doom, his attitude towards it has changed slightly.
In addition, in order to maintain a good relationship with Narant, I must go to this trip no matter what.
The last batch of sugar has been sold, allowing him to earn more than 20 gold coins.
This is also the reason for the slow supply of Nalant. Boris feels that if Nalant has enough sugar, he can earn at least hundreds of gold coins a month.
This kind of income can make more money than he spent on transporting black rocks to other counties.
"Sir, how many people should we send there?"
"Eighty!" Boris thought for a moment and gave the answer.
"Ah?" Ibi was stunned, thinking he heard wrongly.
Although my lord has more guards than ordinary barons, they are only over a hundred people. Now that we have sent eighty people, there will only be twenty people guarding the territory.
"Ah what? Narant's letter has already said that he will be responsible for all the food and drinks this time, and each guard will get ten packets of salt, two kilograms of dried salted fish and a piece of brown sugar black bread. Don't you want to
wanted?"
Although Boris looked down upon these small compensations, since he agreed to go, he must do his best, so he felt that going with eighty guards was enough to show his sincerity.
Moreover, the guards can get this reward worth seventy or eighty copper coins. I believe the guards will be grateful to themselves, the lord, because he has taken advantage of Nalant.
"I want it! Sir, let's make arrangements for the little one now!" Ibi responded immediately.
"Well, go ahead, we'll set off in two days!"
…
"Sir, according to your instructions, the mill started construction yesterday, and the masons and carpenters expect it to be completed in half a month at the latest!"
"In addition, you asked me to try adding clay with different proportions of water, and then making square mud bricks. So far, twenty bricks have been made according to five proportions, and they are all drying!"
"Also, the barbarians did not cause any trouble yesterday, and the villagers' fear of the barbarians has also been eliminated a lot. Currently, several brave villagers have tried to get closer to observe the barbarians!"
It was another morning with the rising sun. Nalant was sitting in the restaurant eating breakfast, and Mario reported what happened in the territory one after another!
"Very good, Mario, tell the masons and carpenters that the construction period of the mill can be extended appropriately, but the quality must be guaranteed!"
"In addition, you need to check whether the mud bricks are cracked during the drying process. Then you can count the number of cracks according to the amount of water added."
“As for the clay, keep digging it out and pile it all together to dry!”
"Also, I have a drawing here. Take it to the masons and let them make the kiln according to the pattern! It doesn't have to be big, as long as it can hold ten mud bricks."
The drawing is a test product of a brick kiln specially designed by Nalant.
If he really starts to bake bricks in large quantities, the kiln must be huge enough, so before that, he needs to be foolproof and experiment with the best shape of the kiln.
In this way, it can be completed in one go without any mistakes.
In addition, he first made a few small kilns and started trying to bake bricks. Although he had asked Boris to help inquire, it would be best if he could find out the various data of brick burning by himself.
"Yes, sir!" Mario took the drawing and respectfully exited the restaurant.
After Mario left and had a delicious breakfast, Nalant took Shirley to the racecourse.
When I saw the female Charizard yesterday, she was already walking slowly.
What surprised Nalant even more was that he discovered that a small fire-breathing lizard could actively produce magical reactions.
Of course, the reflection of this magical power is still very weak. If you want to spit out fireballs like the female Charizard, you probably need to eat grilled oysters for a few more weeks.
That's right, the reason why the little Charizard gained magical power so quickly was because of grilled oysters.
Narant also asked female Charizards why they had energy reactions after eating grilled oysters.
However, even Nalant couldn't figure out the problem, so the Charizard didn't understand it even more.
It just told Nalant that there were indeed some fire-attributed magic fruits in the forest that could help them increase their strength faster.
However, such potion fruits are very rare, and if one appears, a powerful monster will occupy it.
In the end, Nalant didn't care about the reason, as long as he could use grilled oysters to make the little Charizards unable to live without him.
Hoho!
When Nalant walked to the stable door, several small fire-breathing lizards heard the noise and ran out in a hurry.
Since the appearance of grilled oysters, the children's feelings towards Narant have become better and better.
As soon as Nalant came close, several little guys would take the initiative to rush over, sticking out their long tongues and licking him non-stop.
"Okay! Okay, stop licking! Fireball No. 5, I'm talking about you. The other little fireballs are all licking my hands. Why do you always want to lick my face!"
"If you do this again next time, I'll deprive you of a grilled oyster!"
Narant is a person who really has trouble naming. During this period, he was also thinking about naming a few little ones so that he could easily distinguish them.
After much deliberation, I decided to use the name Shirley gave them, which was Little Fireball.
Add a number after the fireball according to its size. From number one to number five are the names of the five little fire-breathing lizards.
At this time, several small fire-breathing lizards gathered around Nalant's feet, sticking out their tongues and licking him affectionately, just like the little puppies in the previous life.
However, Fireball No. 5 was a little dishonest, thinking that licking Nalant's face would please him more, so he raised his head and licked Nalant's face directly.
Nalant's face darkened, but fortunately he moved quickly and avoided being slobbered all over his face.
