Mountain and Forest Kingdom

Chapter 383 The cost of hosting a banquet

Everyone returned to Valkyrie Port and counted the harvest here.

Lawrence found Crete and Durand.

"Did you see Andrew get killed? I need to determine what happened."

Crete said respectfully: "We were all fighting at the time. Akda said that the berserker named Leo bit Andrew's sword with his teeth and cut Andrew's arm with the sword. Both of them bled a lot. "

Lawrence showed a very bad look, "So it was Andrew who was in a worse situation at that time, right?"

Crete didn't think so, "That man's teeth must be loose and he will slowly starve to death in the future."

Lawrence frowned, and it took him a few seconds to understand the Valkyrie's train of thought.

"I will send people to search nearby in the next few days. I will arrange for people to search at Dumu Port and notify the Snow Cave people to help pay attention to the situation on the iceberg continent in the north."

"There is still a lot of food and fuel stored on the Reese. I hope the person we find is not the man named Leo."

Lawrence had already searched the area but could not find the Reese.

The Reese's sail was broken and it shouldn't have been able to run very far, but at that time, it was busy attacking the port of the Kingdom of Luofen, busy rescuing people and arresting people, and didn't have time to worry about that.

Crete and others actually didn't want to go find Andrew. Andrew chose a dignified death method, and even if he was rescued, he would still be half-dead. Everyone felt that Andrew himself definitely didn't want that.

"Andrew should have died together with the powerful Bloody One." Crete felt that Andrew must have died.

Lawrence knew that it was useless to ask Crete for this matter. He should arrange for others to take charge of it, such as Countess Olaua.

"I want to take the fleet back first. I will distribute the reward this time to you now. You and your men will take some, and the rest will be given to Olaua."

"Yes, Prophet!" Crete thanked him quickly, and then said: "Prophet, can I go to Phumexiu Town often?"

Lawrence said: "Okay, just don't make trouble. You and your subordinates can go drink."

Crete became happy. Compared to the boring Valkyrie, the Prophet's territory was more interesting.

Lawrence thought of something and looked at Crete who was still happy.

"What house do you live in now?"

Crete looked at the houses in the distance and pointed to a wooden house with hay hanging in the distance.

"It's bigger and taller than that one. It has a yard made of branches and has sheep and cows."

Lawrence felt that things were really bad here in Crete.

"Then when I go back, I will arrange for people to come and build houses for you. This time, everyone who fights for me will be assigned a two-story house with a courtyard in the style of Pumixiu Town."

"I will also give each of you two additional barrels of vodka, plus three hundred kilograms of grain each, and two chickens each."

"These are the rewards for ordinary soldiers. Those who sacrifice will be given double the food and rewards, and the family will be given clothes and bedding for the winter."

Lawrence thought about the share of the reward, and quickly added: "In five days, I will host a banquet at Dumu Port to entertain all the meritorious people. This time, everyone who participates in the war can go there to eat free meals for three days, and you can also take them with you. His wife and children together.”

"You take the families of the victims with you, and I will bless them and give them the strength to live."

Crete solemnly said: "Yes, prophet!"

Lawrence quickly took Sophia to Countess Olaua.

When the countess saw Lawrence, her body and mind were filled with excitement, her eyes were as charming as silk, "Master~"

Lawrence was still cold, "Olaua, Sofia has felt the treasure underground, and now I want to take away the treasure hidden underground by the earl."

"Yes, Master, everything in Valkyrie, and me, belong to you..." Olaua looked at Lawrence with his mouth open, with an indescribable yet easy-to-understand friendship in his eyes.

Lawrence nodded, "Okay, as a reward for your cooperation this time, I allow you to spend this eternal night at my place."

Olua's eyes became brighter, "Thank you, my master!"

With the cooperation of the Countess, Lawrence quickly took the Countess and Sophia to dig for treasure.

The previous earl had hidden a lot of treasures underground, and now Lawrence had to take care of a widow. How could he do it without charging some money?

The unearthed treasures were quickly distributed among the Siders and the Western reinforcements, and any leftovers were taken back.

Considering that the Countess was having a party at his place this winter night, Lawrence made several barbarians barons before leaving, giving them the territory vacated by the deaths of the previous barons.

At the same time, those who participated in the war can move to Wakili Port and have unified housing.

Beow recuperated here, and by the way became the baron of the Ice City.

This time Beow was the first berserker to ascend, and he was the first baron in the Kingdom of the Stars both emotionally and rationally.

After returning, Lawrence arranged for Beoff's family to be sent to the Ice City to take care of Beoff, and also sent food and other rewards.

Soon the entire territory was immersed in celebrations. All kinds of food and fruits harvested in autumn, as well as all kinds of exquisite food were constantly being cooked, and fine wine was freely drank.

After three days and three nights of continuous celebration, everyone returned home with a full load.

After the reinforcements from the west left, most of the Valkyries returned to the Ice City.

Lawrence suddenly felt that he had nothing to do, so he checked the accounts and counted the expenses of this flowing banquet.

Five thousand ninety-one kilograms of old manor noodles, three hundred and three kilograms of southern rice, forty kilograms of new rice (for the owner's exclusive use), one thousand kilograms of rye, one thousand one hundred and fifty kilograms of oats, and four thousand five hundred and five hundred kilograms of miscellaneous noodles. Eighteen pounds.

The above makes 48,370 pieces of bread, 16,100 pieces of pancakes, 200 pots of porridge, 700 plates of fried noodles, 300 portions of cooked rice, 20 portions of egg fried rice, and 3 noodles. pot.

There are ten large live pigs, five cattle, forty-six sheep, three hundred catties of smoked pig legs, two thousand chickens, and four thousand catties of fresh fish.

Thirty thousand kilograms of cabbage, garlic, pumpkin, potatoes, lettuce, radishes, spinach, mushrooms, etc.

Twenty thousand catties of sea vegetables, ten thousand catties of oranges, and five hundred catties of pears.

Two hundred pounds of orange candy (for gift)

Four hundred barrels of ale, thirty barrels of vodka, and thirty barrels of wine.

Twelve cloths for steaming rice one meter, two hundred and thirty iron plates for baking bread, three hundred wooden shovels, four thousand four hundred wooden dinner plates, six hundred long benches, two hundred tables, thirty iron pots, The cooking stove required six tons of earth and four hundred candles.

firewood……

Lawrence quickly gave up the inspection of firewood, fuel, soy sauce, cooking oil and other things. This celebration party was very expensive and could be regarded as a waste of people and money.

Even if ordinary people are given bread and ordinary wine, and pig trotters, chicken legs, etc. are given to those who have merit, it still consumes a huge amount of resources.

In other words, ordinary lords cannot afford such huge expenses, and even the harvest from this plunder is not enough to cover it.

"Fortunately, I have a strong foundation, but if I do it once, my strength will be severely damaged!"

Lawrence breathed a sigh of relief and made up his mind to develop well in the future and continue to accumulate strength.

I look rich now, but if I think about it carefully, I am still very poor. This accumulation is not enough.

The next step is to train the prisoners of war to work, harvest the wheat for flour, store food for the winter, help the Wakili people who are willing to fight for them to build houses, and continue to build warships.

Lawrence stood up and stretched, feeling relaxed for the first time in a long time.
