It's night, on the long table in the castle restaurant.
Tonight's dinner was particularly sumptuous, with cream cake, white sugar and white bread, three-color chicken stewed with mushrooms, fresh steamed sea fish, and most importantly, most of the fresh charcoal-grilled flame rabbit.
"I've seen you, sir!" Just as Nalant was enjoying his meal, Catherine was led by the servant to the dining room.
"Catherine, you're here just in time, let's have a piece of cream cake!" Seeing Catherine, Nalant immediately waved to her and asked the servant to cut a small piece of cream cake and send it over.
"Thank you, sir!" This was the first time for Catherine to enter the castle restaurant. She had known the taboos at the aristocratic table in the past, but her master did not give her a chance to refuse, so she could only accept it respectfully.
"You're welcome, Catherine, why did you come to see me?"
Narant wiped his hands with a square towel and asked with a smile.
"Sir, in order to thank you for saving their wives and children, Raymond and the others asked me to send them a large amount of beast furs!!"
"Well, just let them keep it for themselves. As their lord, it is my responsibility to protect them."
Nalant waved his hand, he had no shortage of these animal skins.
Now that there is a caravan coming from the Storm Territory, Raymond and the others can use it to exchange for supplies.
"Sir, barbarians like Raymond and others follow a custom, that is, gifts given will never be taken back!"
"In addition, sir, among these furs there are several furs of Warcraft."
"Oh?" Nalant then noticed that the servant next to Catherine was holding a bundle of monster furs for her.
Narant became interested and went to check it out personally.
Warcraft fur is different from ordinary beast fur. Whether it is used to make decoration or leather armor, it is excellent.
"There is even fire rhinoceros skin. Catherine, how did Raymond and the others get it?"
Nalant flipped through it at random, and found that three of the four monster skins were from the Flame Wolf, and one was from the Fire Rhinoceros.
The Fire Rhino is already among the strongest second-tier monsters, even stronger than the Charizard.
"Sir, Raymond said that this fire rhinoceros hide was picked up when they saw a pack of Warcraft wolves attacking the fire rhinoceros. In the end, the fire rhinoceros was seriously injured and died!"
"Well, there is such good luck!" Nalant nodded, "In that case, then accept it... I will make a leather armor for you, Vivian, and Shirley each in a few days!
"
Fire rhinoceros leather is known to be the best material for making leather armor. It is not only water-resistant and fire-proof, but also soft and comfortable. As for its strength, it can withstand the slashing of ordinary swords even without adding iron sheets.
In addition, now that Catherine is here, John the blacksmith has poured beans out of his pocket.
As the former chief blacksmith of the Black Iron Castle, in addition to making weapons, he is also proficient in armor, otherwise he would not be worthy of the title of chief blacksmith.
Therefore, in the small Storm Territory of Nalant, today's blacksmiths are no longer those in the countryside who only know how to hammer a hoe, but can make any kind of weapons and equipment.
Fire rhinoceros skin is made for him, that is the most suitable existence.
"Make us leather armor!" Catherine was stunned when she heard this, looked at her with complicated eyes, and nodded after a moment: "Thank you, sir, for the gift!"
This grown-up in my family is not only kind to others, but also extremely considerate to her daughters of misfortune. From time to time, he will do things that move them deeply.
Catherine also finally understood why Shirley and Vivian placed the Lord in such an important position in their hearts, because she felt that before long, she would fall like them.
"Sir, I'll take my leave first and won't disturb your meal!" Catherine pursed her lips and bowed respectfully.
"Wait a minute and cut two more pieces of cream cake. Catherine, please help bring them to Shirley and Vivian!"
…
"Sir, the wheelbarrow ordered by the caravan last time has been delivered today, and I have handed over the payment to Butler Thomas!"
"Moreover, the caravans have ordered more than 20 wheelbarrows this time!"
Not long after Catherine left, it was Mario and Thomas' turn to report to him, the lord, what had happened in the territory in the past few days.
"Twenty, that's pretty good!" Narant didn't care about the few silver coins he earned from the wheelbarrow.
But as the wheelbarrows are sold, I believe it will become more and more convenient for these caravans to come to Baofeng.
"Sir, the small brick-burning kiln has been burning for four days. Does it need to continue burning now?"
"I almost forgot if you didn't remind me." Nalant rubbed his swollen head. There are too many things that a developing lord needs to consider. If possible, he would rather travel through time and become a man who only knows how to eat, drink and have fun.
Second Lord.
However, fortunately, if you burn the soil for a while, there shouldn't be much of a problem. At most, it will just be a waste of manpower and material resources.
"Mario, when you go back now, ask someone to put out the fire in the brick kiln. I'll come and check it out tomorrow morning!"
"Yes, sir!"
Mario finished his report and then exited the castle.
"Thomas, do you have anything to report?" Nalant looked at the butler.
"Sir, it's like this. According to Civil Affairs Officer Mario, the tailors sent by Baron Boris have arrived in Maiye Village and started sewing clothes for the villagers the day before yesterday!"
"I have seen their craftsmanship. Although it is not as good as the best tailors in Tulip City, it is still pretty good. I think we should let them help sew some castle flags!"
"Castle flag?"
"Yes, sir! You have been in the Storm Territory for more than three months. Now the territory has prospered and developed under your leadership, and nobles have come to visit the territory. Therefore, you should prepare a badge of honor for your territory.
!”
"Well, Thomas, you are right!" Nalant remembered that his father's castle was full of colorful flags, and Boris's team had a lot of colorful flags when traveling, but his castle was bare, not even a guard.
A flag.
Of course, the smocks Nalant promised to the guards last time were also not completed. Although the materials had been purchased, he was not ready to design any patterns yet, so it was delayed.
Since Thomas mentioned it this time, luckily it was resolved.
"Thomas, I know about this. I will design it later! By the way, go and call Vivian, Shirley and Catherine to the study!"
"Yes, sir!"
Family emblems are very important in this world. They symbolize the face of the family. Nobles see their emblems as if they were people, so Nalant also had to design them well.
Well, of course, if you want to see the badge as if you were seeing a person, you must first have a family name that is loud enough, otherwise no one else will know who you are, and seeing you will be in vain...
At that moment, Nalant went directly to the study on the third floor. Because there was a luminous bead in the study, the desk in front of him was as bright as day.
Soon, the three girls also arrived in the study together.
"Well, sir, why did you come to us? Shirley hasn't finished eating the cake yet!"
Shirley wiped her mouth covered with cream and muttered.
"Sir, I need to design a badge that belongs to the Storm Territory today, so I asked you to help me as a reference. By the way, I am also planning to give the castle a name...the name of Doom Village also needs to be changed!"
"Wow! Designing badges is Shirley's favorite! Sir, how should we design it!" After hearing this, little Shirley immediately forgot about the cream cake. After all, there is nothing more honorable than designing a badge for a noble.
