Chapter 199, The Cavendish Store

ps. I want to emphasize here that it’s not a game. As long as the players are willing in the game, you can fill up Holy Grail Knights or Hippogryph Knights to sweep all forces directly, but I definitely can’t write like this. It's really dead.

Although the witch believed that Ryan would not harm herself, she was still a little uneasy.

"My physique is special, Veronica, as you know, I am not afraid of any corruption." Ryan thought for a while and decided to reveal more: "But because of this, I need some means to Prevent some people around me from being corrupted, especially you, my dear, you are sometimes too eager for profit, and you will do anything to achieve your goals."

"So this is..." Veronica mused.

"Well, as you can imagine, as for the benefits...you will know when the wings are fully opened." Ryan smiled strangely: "It won't be long before Olika will appear on her body."

"Then I think I understand what this is, identification? Protection from corruption?" Veronica mused.

Ryan just smiled but didn't answer: "Anyway, I won't hurt you, dear."

Veronica gave him a blank look, and the witch found a comfortable position in his arms: "Hold me tight, Ryan, and rest."

"Um."

From the Winter Veil Festival to the winter after the festival, due to the frozen land, cold climate, and closed river, Ryan and others basically had nothing to do. They usually recuperated in the territory and took the opportunity to practice. Ryan went to Angron to practice against each other when he had nothing to do. , Most of them ended up being beaten violently. Angron was really too strong. Even in a weak state, he could still hang and beat Ryan, but Ryan was no longer completely powerless to fight back.

By the beginning of March, the weather began to warm up day by day.

Lane also received an invitation letter.

The four-yearly Knights Conference will continue to be held in Courona. This year, the hosts are King Dinoa-Jean-Richard de-le-Angulan and the witch Mogiana, the goddess of the lake. The Fairy's Chosen Champion travels to Courona to watch the match.

Ryan knew about this matter. In fact, if there was no invitation, Ryan would also go to Korona, because he had promised Suria.

Veronica refused to go out to Korona together. Witch Garland actually didn't like the lake gods and prophets of the fairies in the lake. She was busy gathering people to build her own wizard tower, and the witch didn't like the so-called knight meeting. interested.

Olika was also unwilling to travel far, and Olivier wanted to stay in the territory. In the end, Ryan decided to set off with Lopes and Hux, and he also brought five sergeants. Unfortunately, there were no knights in his territory who could participate The knights of the conference, Hux was nearly thirty years old, and Lopes was just over twenty-five years old.

Emilia was also taken by Ryan, and the girl saw that no other women wanted to come out with Ryan, so she immediately stated that she would follow Ryan to the knight meeting.

About ten kilometers away from the territory, the team of Duke Winford "Longlegs" Francois appeared in front of everyone. The family coat of arms flag of the pure white horse fluttered in the air, and the Duke's golden crown on the flag represented the Duke The golden iris border represents that he is a descendant of Arthur, the founding knight king, and the golden holy grail on Pegasus' feet represents that he is a glorious Holy Grail Knight.

This time, Duke Winford brought more than 20 family knights, and most of them were very young and immature. It could be seen that they were all going to participate in the knight meeting.

The Duke's daughter was also among them, and she hadn't seen Ryan for a long time. Suria saw Ryan's figure, and her sea-blue eyes were full of splendor. She immediately waved: "Ryan? You really came, and I knew you would abide by the agreement between us." Agreement."

So the two sides converged, and Ryan rode the pure-blood elf war horse Grape at the forefront, keeping pace with Francois, the Duke of Wenford. I thought you would go in person this time."

"At every knight meeting, as long as I don't have something to do, I will come to watch the game in person." Francois smiled elegantly, and he stroked his beard: "The duels of young knights always make my blood boil. Just like I was back then."

"Hehe~ Yes, even a Holy Grail Knight must have some hobbies, especially the Duke, you are the winner of the Knights Conference." Ryan nodded again and again: "I heard from Your Excellency Jules that decades ago, it was the Duke You defeated him and Your Excellency Theodoric successively, and aspired to the crown of the Knights Conference."

"That was all decades ago, and the witch of the lake at that time was not Her Royal Highness Morgiana." Francois said that he was both emotional and proud when he was young: "I have always been victorious at that time." Keep it in mind, when I was searching for the Holy Grail, I encountered countless difficulties and obstacles, fell off the cliff, and was washed into the turbulence, but the lady always inspired me and let me move forward. In the end, I killed several giant monsters in a row. After the evil creature, I was crossing a mountain stream at dawn when I saw a figure of beauty that I cannot describe, and she was waiting for me."

"I know, that's my lady, that's the Holy Grail."

All the young knights in the team stopped talking. They listened carefully to Francois' conversation, for fear of missing any details. Holy Grail knights generally kept their own path to the Holy Grail tight-lipped. When chatting between rooms, it will reveal a little bit.

How holy, the Holy Grail! All young people yearn for in life, praise lady!

"Father, you seldom talk about your past." Suria followed up on a pegasus, and the female knight said to Francois gently: "Even to me and my brother, you seldom explain."

"That's not a particularly honorable thing. My daughter, Theodoric has hated me since I lost to me. He thinks that I have stolen his championship through disgraceful means." Francois The look on his face was like the calm spring water in an ancient well, without any waves: "But the lady can prove everything."

Theodoric failed to complete the Holy Grail trial, and then he was busy with the war with Estalia, but Francois completed the Holy Grail trial and returned with glory. At this time, Duke Wenford no longer needed Argued with Theodoric, as he said, the lady can prove everything.

Duke Winford is unwilling to go to war with Duke Berleon for this reason. Theodoric is a sweetheart and a militant, so there is no need to start a war just because of a little verbal dispute.

Ryan nodded again and again, the early spring sun shone on him, the Holy Grail Knight held the reins, thinking that it seemed that Francois was also a passionate young man when he was young, a fierce and dashing knight, but the Duke was taking over After becoming the duke, he began to hide his strength and bide his time. As time went by, he gradually became a wily man, full of wisdom in every move.

Ryan felt very happy to travel with the Duke himself, accompanied by the Duke's daughter and his little maid.

A few days later, a group of people arrived in the small town of Vogele in the morning. This town is located in the Principality of Le-Angulan. The ruler is the Earl of Vogele. This place is less than a day away from Courona up.

Francois signaled everyone to stay here and leave tomorrow.

So the knights and soldiers lodged in this small town.

After lunch and a simple lunch break, Francois found Ryan: "Are you interested in going out with me? Young man? Just the two of us."

"???" Although Ryan was a little puzzled, he immediately agreed. The person in front of him was his boss and a nobleman who supported him. Since he invited him, he had no reason not to go.

The town of Vogele is close to the castle of the Duke of Le-Angouran. The first impression of this town is that it is prosperous and very prosperous. The town here is not only densely populated, but also has a developed economy. The streets are full of vendors. Ryan Even saw some halfling haunts.

François was dressed in blue and white Breton silk grand aristocrat's dress, with four ermine stripes on his hat. There is a gold ring on his crown, which is decorated with 8 red gold leaves. His clothes are inlaid with the family coat of arms of his pure white horse, especially the Holy Grail Knight badge on his chest is shining, which shows his noble status. .

The serfs didn't dare to approach and disturb him, and they all avoided him. The traders tried their best to catch up with him, but they looked away immediately after seeing Francois shaking his hand. No one dared to pester a Holy Grail Knight.

Ryan followed Francois, and the champion of God's Choice was also very powerful. He was wearing a red Breton silk aristocratic costume, but he didn't wear a hat: "My Duke? This place is so prosperous."

"Vogele has always been very prosperous, and here is the Duke of Le-Angulan, which is one of Richard's main sources of tax revenue." Francois said with a smile: "There are more than 8,000 people in a town. Population, it's really thriving here, most of the coastal towns are of this size."

"Yes, it's just a little messier." Ryan noticed that there was a lot of feces on the corner of the street, and dirty water and garbage were hidden in the corner.

Generally speaking, the larger the settlement, the more sanitation and various supporting facilities are needed. In many cases, the population settlement cannot be summed up simply by 1+1. In addition to being clean and tidy, the entire city is actually filled with sea water, garbage, and silt.

"You are very smart, Ryan. You know how to control a degree in the process of ruling, but I still want to show you a story today." Francois led Ryan around a street corner.

The street was a little messy, a lot of rubbish was piled up on both sides of the street, waiting for regular cleaners to come and clean it up, but this was not the point, Ryan noticed that many townspeople and serfs were anxiously standing in front of a store on the street Waiting at the door of the shop, most of them are old and gray-haired, and many of them are still swearing.

"Cavendish! You son of a bitch, where's our bread? Why hasn't it arrived yet?"

"You accursed stranger, you vile thief!"

"I curse you!"

At the same time, there were two heavily armed sergeants standing guard at the entrance of the shop. Because of their presence, this large group of people did not dare to rush into the shop or attack the shop owner. They could only stand outside and wait anxiously. While cursing.

A wooden sign hung above the shop: Cavendish Store.

"What is this, what are they doing?" Ryan was very curious. What made the store have to be guarded by the lord, and what caused dozens of people to gather around the door of the store and keep cursing Woolen cloth?

"Don't worry, Ryan, patience is a virtue! Let us wait." Francois motioned Ryan to sit down with him in a small stall on the street. The stall owner was a serf woman, and she was selling a kind of Stew, a stew made of frog meat, flour, onions, carrots, celery stalks, potatoes, wild green leaves, garlic, salt and something else, it smells good, see François The two Holy Grail Knights, Va and Ryan, sat down, and the serf woman screamed all over, and then tried her best to bend her round waist: "Oh, my God! Oh, my God, my lady! My lady Salia, what is this, what is this? Two Holy Grail Knights have visited my shop! Most respected Holy Grail Knights, what do you want?"

"Two bowls of valley frog meat stew, lady." Francois took out two silver coins, and the serf woman immediately served two bowls of stew that were nearly full to Ryan and Francois. Then he nodded and bowed, with a smile on his face: "Yes, please! Lord Holy Grail Knight, our frog stew here is the most famous and best stew in the whole town. Just try it once, and you will definitely fall in love with it... "

"Okay, okay, we understand, you go and do your business." Francois signaled the serf woman not to disturb him and Ryan, the serf woman quickly bowed, and then happily walked away: "God Hey! Praise lady! Two Grail Knights are eating in my shop! Two Holy Grail Knights are eating in my shop!"

The effect of the Holy Grail Knight's appearance was immediate. The serf woman's big pot of stew was sold out within ten minutes, and even more than half of the new ones were sold. It's not that the serf woman didn't want to sell them all, but she I thought in my heart that maybe the Holy Grail Knight and so on should add a little more, and there can't be nothing left.

The yellow stew soup was mixed with a variety of red, green, and white vegetables and frog meat. Ryan picked it up and took a bite: "Well~ the taste is not bad!"

"Not bad, right? I ate here last time, and it was really good." Francois's wise eyes flashed a smile: "But don't patronize the food, look, pay attention to that store."

"Hmm." The Duke and his baron were eating the stew, and while eating the stew, they fixed their eyes on the store named Cavendish and a large group of people at the entrance of the store.

"Cavendish? This name doesn't sound like someone from the kingdom." Ryan took the wooden spoon and put the frog meat into his mouth.

"Yes, he's not from Britannia, he's from Estalia...Come here, Ryan, pay attention." A freight carriage came to the door of the Cavendish store, with a large number of bread bags on it : "Something is coming."

"It's bread, the most common black bread?" Ryan said suspiciously: "These people want to buy black bread? But I saw a lot of bakeries along the way, why do everyone focus on this one to buy? The black bread here cheaper?"

"No, no, the price of the black bread here is the same as the market price." Francois shook his head, and the Duke himself showed indifference and contempt: "The only difference is that part of the black bread in this cart, It is used to support those serfs who are old and unable to work."

"Cavendish may never have imagined in his dreams that things would become like this." Do you have to find the latest chapter by yourself while reading a book? You are OUT, follow us on WeChat and the beauty editor will help you find books! It's really good to read a book and flirt with girls!
