After paying 80 gold pith coins to the adventurous businessman Hughes in the city of Patras, William got this batch of precious supplies as he wished.
Long swords, linen cloth, iron spearheads, iron ore, etc.
Before William's arrival, there was no blacksmith in the small village of Nisei, and naturally there was no iron furnace or anvil, so the iron ore could only be temporarily stored.
The iron spearhead needed to be matched with a long stick that was hard and flexible, so William left it to his followers Eddie and Charles to do this.
One was a fledgling blacksmith and the other was an experienced old carpenter. William thought they would give him good news.
As for the linen fabric, William took part of it and gave it to Little Bud, the only tailor in the village.
Also given to Little Bud were the furs of the prey that William had harvested during this period of hunting.
William placed an order with Little Bud and asked for 30 sets of guard uniforms. The uniforms included a brown-black collared top, a pair of tight trousers, and a pair of leather boots. The conditions were that the quality should be good, the speed should be fast, and the pay should be high.
For each uniform, William paid him 5 copper coins.
Inspired by money, little tailor Bude is full of motivation and passion!
He hired several ingenious and hard-working peasant women in the village, with him as the central command and several peasant women assisting him. He agreed to give them two copper coins for every set of clothes and shoes they completed.
This job was easier than moving dirt, and it was simpler than finding the stones William asked for. The peasant women readily agreed.
Three days later, 30 sets of guard uniforms and boots were delivered as expected.
Each member of the escort team had two sets of uniforms and one pair of leather boots. The remaining ten sets of uniforms and leather boots were saved by William for emergencies.
The Guards members who put on brand new uniforms and new warm and thick boots were all overjoyed. They lined up and passed in front of the villagers with their heads held high. They received a lot of envious, jealous and hateful looks, and they felt proud in their hearts.
Table, the recognition of William, the generous Baron, has increased infinitely.
Little Bud, the tailor, received 90 copper coins, and several peasant women each received 20 copper coins.
William gained the rising loyalty of the Guards.
All four were very happy.
However, happy days are always short-lived.
Before the members of the escort could recover from their joy, they fell into William's devilish training.
William intensified the training intensity of the Guards members.
Not only that, William also directly taught the ten members of the guard the swordsmanship of Knight Decas deduced by the magic mirror.
Of course, William did not teach the Knight's Breathing Technique that matched the Knight's Swordsmanship, so the effect was not as good as the improvement in physical fitness that the Knight's Swordsmanship combined with the Knight's Breathing Technique did.
But even so, for the sons of civilians like the Guards, William's Dickas swordsmanship is also a "stunt skill" that is rarely available. If it were in William's previous life, it would have required jumping off a cliff and getting lucky.
There is a chance to get the "stunt skill", and jumping off the cliff once is probably not enough, you will have to jump off the cliff several times!
In the morning, I ran cross-country for five kilometers while carrying a shield, and then there was the formation training, turning left, right, and backward, which made the escort members dizzy.
In the afternoon, it’s time to practice Dickas swordsmanship.
The whole afternoon was spent practicing swordsmanship repeatedly.
Chop, chop, cut, chop, stab, pick...
They won't get scientific training guidance, they can only trade their young bodies!
Maintaining an action for a long time will cause damage to the body. If it lasts long enough, the damage caused will be irreversible and will eventually break out in old age and physical weakness.
But for the Guard members, they have no choice!
How many people want to get the opportunity to join the escort team?
Also, when the Guard members were practicing knight swordsmanship, William used a magic mirror to supervise them in real time.
A deviation in one movement can lead to a weakening of the effect. William can even teach knight swordsmanship as a heirloom skill, so how can he endure this result?
With the real-time supervision of the magic mirror, each member of the escort team is as if they have hired a personal trainer.
Every mistake will be pointed out by the magic mirror and told to William, who will then correct it!
At first, William's temper was gentle and kind, just like the doctors and nurses at William's private hospital in his previous life. But soon, repeated admonishment would not make William's temper flare up. He found that whipping the legs and scolding were more effective.
.
As a result, the escort members fell into an even more miserable situation!
But the final result is gratifying!
After a week, all the body values of the escort members were approaching the number "1".
You know, the value 1 is already the value of a healthy adult man.
Ten days ago, most of the data of these teenagers, with the exception of Jacques Porter, were still between 0.5-0.7.
This means that William has obtained the first team with a combat strength close to that of an adult.
The body values of the Guards are reflected in specific matters, that is, the speed of the Guards members carrying their shields for five kilometers cross-country has increased. With the daily supplement of bread, meat and salt, muscles have also appeared in the body.
With an attitude of striving for excellence, William increased the intensity of training to prevent the members of the escort from becoming complacent.
Moreover, a guard team with a combat strength close to that of an adult is not William's goal at all. A guard team with a knight team is William's pursuit.
From the current point of view, there is still a long way to go, and we can only continue to search up and down.
While training the Guards members, William did not give up his own training.
He has always had an uneasy feeling in his heart, especially after the last wolf attack and the sight of the poop, the uneasiness in his heart became even stronger.
So William also increased the intensity of his training.
Together with the members of the escort, we practice the Decas Knight swordsmanship several times a day, and practice the Decas Knight swordsmanship combined with the Knight's Breathing Technique many times a day.
It has to be said that the knight training method deduced by the magic mirror has amazing results. William's physical attributes at this time have also become, "Strength: 2.3, Constitution: 2.1, Agility: 2.4, Status: Healthy!"
All attributes have been improved compared to before.
The life energy in the heart also becomes stronger.
William's swing of the sword became faster and stronger!
However, that's it, the exercise effect brought by Decas Knight's exercise method to William is becoming less and less obvious.
The body has adapted to this kind of practice, and the rest can only be eroded by time, and it is impossible to achieve obvious improvement in a short period of time like now!
I heard that the great nobles will have some special medicines that can assist knights in their training and significantly improve their physical qualities.
It's a pity that William has never heard of it in the Odyssey family. Maybe there is, but his physical father, Grand Duke Odyssey VII, has never spoken to him, let alone used it.
William could only persevere every day and practice sword swinging day after day in the hope that his physical fitness would slowly but surely improve.
In addition to the knight training, the villagers also gave William a surprise.
The limestone he had been obsessed with finally found it.
There is a large amount of limestone in a cave in the forest to the north of the small village of Nisei. Villagers usually walk there to get a candle.
This forest in the north is at the end of the small village of Nisei, where the ghost wolf escaped.
It had been cleaned up by William before. Although no remaining ghost wolves could be found, a large number of small animals were hunted down by William.
Buck, a hunter in the village, had the courage to go hunting and luckily discovered the limestone in the cave.
However, it had been more than seven days, so Buck only got half a silver coin.
After Buck got 1 silver franc coin and 50 copper coins, he was so distressed that he always regretted why he didn't go there earlier!
The other villagers looked at Buck with contempt.
Limestone is an important building material.
William, who knew the whereabouts of the limestone, immediately issued a new task, asking the villagers to go to the cave to transport the limestone, baskets of limestone and a copper coin of Poole.
This is twice as expensive as clay.
Capital can make people crazy, and it can also make people take risks!
Although there may be dangers in the forest, most villagers gave up the relatively safe job of transporting clay and switched to entering the forest to transport limestone.
Rats will store food for the winter before winter comes, and these villagers in the small village of Nisei also want to store money for the winter before winter comes.
So don't be inspired by William and rush to be the first.
Baskets of limestone are heavier than clay, but the money received is heavy.
This was enough to soothe the villagers' aching shoulders and hungry stomachs, and bring them sweet smiles.
