It was getting dark, and in the Stormland Castle, the guards finally heard a long-awaited greeting.
Two servants, led by Vivian, came to the vestibule carrying several wooden basins.
After the guards heard the call, except for the five guards on duty who remained on the city wall, the other ten quickly trotted to the place where the food was distributed.
The guards consciously carried their wooden trays to the wooden table.
A hunk of black bread, a big spoonful of whale broth.
"Thank you Lord for the gift!" Smelling the rich aroma of the broth on the plate, even though the Lord was not here at the moment, the guard Kari Oxtail still offered his sincere greetings.
After greetings, Kari Oxtail picked up the plate and prepared to leave.
"Wait a minute, Kari!" At this moment, Vivian, who was standing aside to supervise the order of the guards, called him.
"Captain Vivian, do you have any orders?" Cary asked curiously.
"In addition to ordinary black bread and whale meat for today's dinner, the lord also specially rewards you with a piece of brown sugar black bread!" After saying that, Vivian took a piece of black bread the size of a child's fist from the wooden basin in front of her and put it on the table.
On Cary's dinner plate.
"Brown sugar and black bread?" Kari was a little confused, but no matter what, since it is an extra gift from the adults, just thank you.
"Thank you Lord for the gift!" Kari greeted him again.
Then, Kari carried the wooden plate and walked towards the table nearby.
Next, other guards sat down on the wooden table one after another with wooden trays, and began to think about a delicious dinner.
The guards did not try the small piece of brown sugar bread immediately, but soaked the large piece of ordinary black bread in the fish soup and ate it.
After all, no matter what the name is, brown bread is brown bread, and fish soup is the delicacy that the guards such as Kari Oxtail crave most.
After eating the fish soup and black bread, Kari Oxtail touched his belly with satisfaction and showed a satisfied smile.
Happiness is so simple. There are kind and generous adults, and every meal can make them full.
"By the way, there's a small piece of red stuff here... Oh... I haven't eaten the brown sugar bread, so this can't be wasted!"
Kari Oxtail knew that food was hard to come by. Although he felt very full, he still picked up the brown sugar and black bread.
For him, this brown sugar brown bread is just a bite.
Bah!
The next moment, Kari Oxtail put the brown sugar black bread into his mouth without hesitation. After the bread was in his mouth, he naturally stood up and prepared to wash his dinner plate.
However, at this moment, Kari Oxtail's body suddenly shook, and then his eyes widened.
"ah!"
Kari Oxtail let out a startled scream.
Kari's exclamation immediately startled several guards around him. They all raised their heads and said dissatisfiedly: "Kari Oxtail, did your tail get stepped on by a cow? Why don't you howl for nothing to scare us!"
"It's not me...it's this...this bread...it...it..." Kari Oxtail Bar didn't care about his nausea at all. He spat out the brown sugar black bread with a recognizable shape from his mouth, and then pointed at the black bread incoherently.
I don’t know how to explain bread.
"What happened to the bread? Did you eat pebbles? It shouldn't be possible. After Ms. Rose came to the castle, the black bread became much more delicious than before, and there were no pebbles." The other guards were confused.
"No...it's just that it's so delicious!" After holding it in for a long time, Kari finally finished his words.
"It's delicious? Is it so delicious that you scream? Kari, are you kidding us!" The other guards didn't believe it. If Kari was eating white bread, then they might still believe it. After all, the white bread of the nobles
They have never tasted bread.
"I'm not lying to you, you will know after you eat it. This brown sugar bread is the most delicious bread I have ever eaten!" As he said this, Kari quickly stuffed the black bread in his hand back into his mouth.
Moreover, this time he did not chew it, but just held it in his mouth and slowly enjoyed the rich sweetness in the bread.
"Is it really so delicious?" Seeing that Kari Oxtail's expression didn't look fake, the other guards finally became a little suspicious, and then they also picked up their own brown sugar bread and put it into their mouths.
"ah!"
"Wow!"
"oh!"
Afterwards, a series of exclamations came from the front courtyard of the castle, and the expressions of the guards who originally didn't believe Cali were much more exaggerated than Cali's.
For those of them who have never tasted honey, it is a sweet taste that they have never experienced before.
…
Time flew by, and three days passed in a flash.
That day, Nalant completed his morning Dou Qi practice in the back garden as usual. He was washing up and preparing to go downstairs for lunch when Vivian hurried up.
"Sir, the convoy is back!" Vivian's face was filled with joy. She knew that her master was looking forward to the return of the convoy because the convoy brought hope for the rise of the Storm Leader. Now it was time to wait for the results.
"Come back?" Nalant was stunned when he heard this.
"Yes, sir, the convoy is still about two miles away from the castle!" Vivian nodded affirmatively.
"Vivian, go and bring Lightning to the vestibule, Lilia, help me put on my clothes!"
After bathing and washing, Narante was only wearing an undershirt and had not had time to change into a decent silk dress.
"Yes, sir!" Sisters Vivian and Lilia responded at the same time.
After Lilia quickly put on a decent dress, Nalant quickly headed downstairs.
Arriving at the vestibule, riding on his lightning, Nalant led the guards directly out of the castle and headed towards the convoy not far away.
Originally Narant could have waited in the castle, but he really wanted to know the result of this convoy. It was like buying a lottery ticket and wanting to know the result the next moment. One more minute would make people feel uncomfortable.
…
Looking at the castle standing a mile away, Thomas, Quick and other guards felt kindness and peace of mind in their hearts.
After leaving the territory for nearly ten days, they finally returned, and they successfully completed their master's instructions and returned with a full load.
The three carriages were fully loaded when they set out, and they were just as full when they came back.
In addition, twenty civilians wearing ordinary linen clothes were added to the rear of the convoy.
These people were the family members of Anthony's five original escorts.
"It's the adults here!" At this moment, Thomas and others suddenly saw the team filing out of the castle, and immediately knew that it was the adults coming to greet them and others.
"Meet the adults!"
"I've met the lord!"
Seeing the mighty lord leading the way approaching, everyone in the motorcade respectfully offered their greetings.
"came back!"
Nalant looked at the motorcade and nodded towards the guards such as Thomas and Quick.
"Sir, the first guard team successfully completed the mission assigned by you, and the convoy did not suffer any losses during this trip!" Quick took the lead in reporting to Nalant.
"Well, you are all doing well!" Nalant nodded with satisfaction.
"Sir, I have also successfully completed all the tasks you gave me and sold all the products!" After Quick came Thomas.
"Very good, Thomas!" Narant finally felt relieved when he finally got the answer to his first business trial.
"Let's go back to the castle now!" Then, Nalant waved his hand and led the convoy towards the castle.
