That night, Vivian was brought to the vestibule of the castle by Shirley, and stood respectfully in front of Nalant.
"Yes! Vivian!" Nalant smiled and nodded to her, and then asked seriously: "Vivian, do you know what day it is today?"
"What day?" Vivian was a little confused. After thinking for a moment, she tentatively said, "Sir, is it the day when the castle welcomes its first noble visitor?"
Nalant laughed and shook his head. His eyes softened as he looked at Vivian, "Today is your birthday, have you forgotten?"
"Ah! It's my birthday, sir, do you know?" Vivian was stunned, a little unbelievable, and at the same time, she felt moved in her heart.
"Of course I know your birthday!" Nalant smiled and then raised his palm.
Snap!
"Sister, I wish you a happy birthday!"
"Sister Vivian! Happy birthday!"
"Captain Vivian! Happy birthday!"
Following Nalant's applause, everyone's blessings suddenly came from the vestibule.
Lilia's, Shirley's, and all the servants and guards!
"Thank you... thank you, thank you Lord! Thank you everyone!" In an instant, Vivian covered her mouth, her eyes filled with red.
She didn't expect that the lord not only remembered her birthday, but also summoned everyone to congratulate her.
At this moment, Vivian's heart melted.
A few years ago, when my mother was still alive, her mother would buy her an expensive piece of white bread as a congratulation on her birthday.
But since something happened at home and she came to the Storm Territory, she has forgotten her birthday because she no longer has a mother who cares about her.
Birthdays will not bring you happiness, but will make you think of your mother who loves you so much, and make you even more sad.
As Nalant spoke, Rose came over. There was a large cream cake on the tray in her hand, with a small candle on the cake!
"Thank you, sir!" Vivian choked up.
"Sister Vivian, today is your birthday. This is a cream cake specially prepared for you. Please hurry up and make a wish and blow out the candles, and then we can share the cake and eat it!"
Little Loli Shirley couldn't bear it anymore.
She still remembered the taste of the cream cake at noon.
As for blowing out the candles, that was naturally what Nalant told her.
"This..." Vivian heard Shirley talking in the afternoon, saying that she had eaten extremely delicious food, a hundred times more delicious than brown sugar and black bread.
Now that she heard that such a big cream cake was prepared for her birthday, Vivian couldn't help but look at Nalant.
"Vivian, make a wish and blow out the candles! After you blow out the candles, cut the cake and share it with everyone. I think Shirley can't wait!" Nalant nodded to Vivian.
"Yeah!" Vivian didn't say anything else, she just nodded vigorously to Nalant, saying nothing.
Then she closed her eyes and made a wish, then moved closer to the candle and blew it out.
"Yeah! Sister Vivian, you are the best! Now you can eat the cake!" Shirley immediately jumped up from where she was.
Later, under Rose's guidance, an approximately eight-inch cake was divided into dozens of portions.
Although everyone could only get a portion the size of an egg, when they tasted the sweetness of the cream, no one wanted it too little. After all, there are ways to eat small pieces, so everyone held the cream cake and licked it slowly.
While eating, everyone also gave their heartfelt blessings to their lord.
"Sister Vivian, what wish did you just make?" Sister Vivian and Shirley sat in the corner of the vestibule. Shirley asked Vivian curiously while eating a cream cake with a happy face.
"No...it's nothing!" Vivian trembled when she heard this and replied slightly panicked.
"Ah! I know, it must be related to the lord!" Shirley said with a smile, regardless of Vivian's embarrassment.
"Shirley...you...how did you know?" Although Vivian was several years older than Shirley, her face was really confused at this moment, and her neck was so red.
"Of course I know. If you celebrate my birthday and give me such a delicious cream cake, I will definitely make a wish to be with you forever! In this way, I can eat delicious food often!" Shirley said of course.
My own opinion.
"Phew!" Vivian breathed a sigh of relief.
Although her wish is the same as Shirley's, she also hopes to be by your side forever.
However, naturally she is not following the adults for food, but...
In short, Shirley's words made her feel that her little thoughts had not been exposed, and she was freed from the embarrassment...
…
After Boris's visit, the castle returned to normal. The guards continued to train hard, and Nalant also continued to practice and improve his fighting spirit. Especially with the blessings of Warcraft meat and flame crystals, his practice was making rapid progress.
I believe that it won't be long before he can break through from the junior bronze knight to the intermediate level as quickly as the children of those big families.
In the past few days, the territory has once again welcomed two civilian caravans, coming from Wind Chime Town and Cow Town, which are further away.
When they came to the Storm Territory, they were in the same situation as Laurie's General Store. They were all in a group of thirty or forty people, and they didn't bring any goods to sell.
Nalant sent Thomas to hand over again. The two caravans spent a total of more than two gold coins. After completing the transaction, they did not dare to stay in the Storm Territory and quickly left the Storm Territory carrying salt, dried fish and brown sugar and black bread.
Obviously, these people are afraid of the Storm Territory's reputation of doom to the bottom of their hearts.
Of course, another reason is that Maiye Village is in a dilapidated state, with no place to stay except thatched huts.
Therefore, if you are resting in the Storm Territory, you might as well leave first, and the same goes for resting in the wilderness elsewhere.
Seeing this situation, Narant began to think about countermeasures and make plans for the future.
If you want to really allow Maiye Village to retain people and let them spend money, you need to change the environment first. At the very least, you can't be in such a shabby state that you don't even have a place to stay.
Therefore, with a wave of his hand, Nalant began to prepare for the first batch of reconstruction and construction of Maiye Village.
"Sir, are you really planning to rebuild the town? Those civilian caravans don't dare to spend the night in Maiye Village. Even if it is built, they will probably do the same!"
He took the plan handed over by Narant, which showed neat rows of building plans.
The buildings on this drawing will eventually be implemented in Maiye Village, and the project volume will be fifty large stone houses. These stone houses will be spread out around the huge square of Maiye Village.
According to my master's wishes, this is still the first phase of the plan. In the future, Maiye Village will slowly start to be upgraded and transformed, making Maiye Village the most beautiful and prosperous town.
When the flow of people increases, taverns, hotels and other recreational places can be opened. Use every method to make these caravans spend money in the Storm Territory, use consumption to drive the Storm Territory's economy, and then continue to plan for the next few years.
Expect.
But Thomas felt that with the reputation of Stormland, even if the stone houses were built more beautifully, those civilian caravans might not dare to stay here overnight.
Moreover, if you want your territory to be prosperous, shouldn't you let the serfs work hard and cultivate it?
Therefore, it is better to build two or three stone houses first to satisfy the trade of salt, dried fish and brown sugar and black bread.
After all, the stone house you live in is not a toilet. The cost of building one is at least a few gold coins, and fifty is hundreds of gold coins. With this money, you should repair your master's castle first.
