Start as Inherited Baroness
Chapter 15 Reward
Soon, they arrived at Changlin Town, which was the fief of Baron Gil. A castle could be seen from afar.
The castle was not big, covering an area of about 20 mu. The wall was 5 or 6 meters high, and the highest point was about 8 or 9 meters. The overall color was gray-brown.
The architectural style was similar to that of the Western Middle Ages on Earth, but there were also some differences.
There was also a circle of earth walls more than 3 meters high outside the castle, which enclosed a hundred mu of land. There were many buildings inside, where free people lived.
This was the main part of Changlin Town, with rows of long houses, including both houses and shops open for business.
In addition, there were many people outside the high wall, but most of them were caravans or travelers, relying on this town to camp.
Simon and his party were close to 300 people. As soon as they approached the earth wall, they naturally attracted the attention of the guards of Changlin Town.
However, they only sent a dozen people to stand on the high wall and stare, and there was no other action.
"Lord Simon, we don't need to go in. Each person needs an entry fee of one silver sheep."
At this time, Kelley said.
Simon nodded and thought to himself, "This Baron Gil is really good at making a profitless business."
He reviewed the situation and said to Mad beside him, "Arrange for all our people to enter the town."
Then he took out a few golden eagles and a handful of silver sheep from his wallet and handed them to the quartermaster Mad.
"Yes, sir!" Mad took the money and immediately went to make arrangements.
Kelley watched silently from the side, without saying a word, but frowned slightly. He didn't understand why Simon trusted these people who came to him halfway.
Shouldn't he trust his father-in-law and financial sponsor the most?
Kelley was full of doubts and decided to find a suitable time to talk to him alone.
Not long after, more than 40 people under Simon entered the city, even the horses were brought in.
There was no extra charge for the horses.
Kelley only brought a dozen mercenaries, Winis and a few maids.
The two groups of people acted separately.
The smell in the town was not very pleasant. Since livestock were not prohibited from entering and leaving, feces could be seen everywhere.
However, they did have special people to clean up. Two townspeople were pushing carts and slowly cleaning.
The streets were quite spacious, and many townspeople came and went. When they saw Simon and his party, they subconsciously avoided them.
They didn't care. I think there are no civilians in this world who are not afraid of soldiers.
Not long after, they found a hotel.
Simon looked up and saw a sign outside the door, which said Changlin Hotel. The interior was well decorated and bright.
But there were not many guests eating.
Simon hesitated slightly. This situation generally means that the store is not doing well, either the prices are high or the service is poor.
After a little hesitation, he chose to look at other stores. In more than half an hour, he walked around the town.
There are only three hotels in total, and the other two are not large in scale, and they can't accommodate them at one time.
After going around, Simon and his party returned to Changlin Hotel.
"Excuse me, what would you like to order?" A maid greeted Simon who came to the door.
"What?" he asked.
The maid looked calm and pointed to the north wall, where many wooden signs were hung, with many names of dishes and corresponding prices.
This attitude made Simon immediately suspect that this store was opened by the local baron family.
He looked at the wooden signs carefully and found that the food sold here was indeed much more expensive, about 30% more expensive.
He looked at the food of the guests in the store again, and felt that it was quite exquisite, so he decided to eat here, even if it was a little expensive.
"Sit down." Simon waved his hand, and immediately a group of people found their seats and sat down, and the seats in the whole house were almost full.
Seeing this, several tables of guests quickly stuffed food into their mouths, then stood up to pay and walked away in a hurry.
"Each person has a portion of roast beef, roast sausage, roast fish, black bread, plus vegetable soup, butter, apples, and malt wine.
In addition, give me a separate portion of white bread, cheese, and a stewed pheasant."
Simon ordered, this meal was already very rich for the soldiers.
"Please wait a moment, sir." The maid responded with a flattering smile and went to the kitchen.
After half an hour, a few more young girls came to the store and brought the food one by one.
Simon's table was the first to be served, and Aire, Sarit, Mad, Yaman, and Kailin started eating immediately.
The food in this hotel is naturally more delicious than the food cooked on the road. Spices are added to enhance the flavor, and the salt used is also very good. No wonder it is so expensive.
For a while, the store was full of the sound of gnawing meat. The roast beef was as big as two palms, and Simon was eating it with oil dripping from his mouth.
However, when they were about to finish eating, the store owner went out for a while, and soon, a team of guards came outside the door and guarded the street.
Simon knew at a glance that the store owner was afraid that they would eat for free.
He didn't care much. Anyone who received dozens of armored and armed men would have doubts in his heart.
The meal took an hour or so. Simon finished his portion and felt a little full.
The food in his restaurant tasted pretty good. If he could eat it every three or five days, it would be fine.
"Let's pay the bill." Simon said.
Upon hearing this, Mad immediately stood up and went to negotiate with the shopkeeper. They were very excited and both sides nodded repeatedly.
In the end, the meal cost 15 silver deer and 6 silver sheep, less than one gold coin.
Simon was relieved when he heard this. This was a piece of cake for him.
"Tell them to boil some hot water, and we will all take a bath. We will divide into two groups, one group will take a bath, and the other group will guard.
By the way, change your lining." He said immediately.
"Yes." After paying for the meal, Mad immediately took a few people to do the work.
Not long after, he brought more than 40 sets of fine linen lining cloth, which cost several gold coins and was quite valuable.
He also bought clothes made of wool and linen for Simon, each of which was worth more than one gold coin.
Simon picked up the clothes and took a look. There were some patterns on them. It took some effort to weave them. He was quite satisfied.
He immediately put it under his armpit and went upstairs. Aire and Sarit personally guarded him.
Soon, with the help of the two, he took off his armor, went into the house, took off his clothes, and went to the wooden barrel.
After checking it, it looked clean, so he went in and took a bath immediately.
"Oh, it's really relaxing." Simon hummed comfortably.
At this time, the door was suddenly knocked, and then Aile's voice came: "My lord, do you want a prostitute?"
"Hmm?" Simon was stunned, the concept of prostitutes turned around in his mind, and his lower body immediately began to heat up and stiffen.
He hesitated for a while, but still said viciously: "No!"
"Yes!" Aile stopped talking immediately.
Simon exhaled a foul breath, looked down, and muttered to himself: "It seems that he has recovered well in this month.
No wonder this kid was targeted by the witch before, the capital is really enough."
After that, he tried his best to suppress his desire, secretly thinking that he was not in a hurry at this moment. After all, these prostitutes of unknown origin were too unstable. If they were killers, wouldn't they be finished?
Before he came here, he watched a Korean movie. It was probably about a king who was doing things, and when he was in the middle of it, he was suddenly stabbed to death by a hairpin by the woman under him.
The blood gushed out from his neck, splashing high, and I still remember it vividly.
After more than half an hour, the water was completely cold.
He stepped out of the barrel, wiped the water stains on his body with a linen cloth, changed into new clothes, and asked the soldiers to help him put on the heavy armor.
Then he put on his sword and walked out.
"Sir Simon, Baron Gill invites you to visit the castle."
Not far from the door, a butler-like figure said respectfully.
This person seemed to have been waiting for a long time.
