Start as Inherited Baroness
Chapter 26 Wedding
One day later, Kelley returned to Fengjian Manor. He had already made all the preparations for the wedding.
In the lobby, the two were talking in secret.
"Lord Simon, everything is ready. Your wedding with my daughter Winnies will be held in the sanctuary of White Owl Harbor."
"Thank you for your hard work. Let's hold the wedding tomorrow.
By the way, how much did you spend on the four thousand golden eagles?" Simon smiled.
"Only more than three hundred, the rest are here." Kelley anticipated the scene of him asking for money, so he was ready.
This man had struggled for more than 20 years to accumulate wealth, and now he spit out a small part of it. His heart was in pain, but his face was calm.
Simon had to sigh in his heart when he saw it: "This is a character. I have to be on guard in the future."
Soon, several servants brought in a small wooden box, and then retreated respectfully.
Kelley went over and opened the box, and suddenly a golden light was reflected, all of which were the standard currency of the kingdom, golden eagles.
"Good!" Simon shouted with satisfaction, and stood up to cover the box.
"Aile!" he shouted.
Ailei, who was guarding the door, pushed the door open, saluted, and said loudly: "Sir!"
"Carry this box into my room, don't open it, and don't allow strangers to approach. Those who violate it will be killed without mercy." He ordered.
"Yes!" Ailei responded, and immediately called in a few light infantrymen to move the box away.
After that, Simon chatted happily with Kelley for a while.
Before leaving, Kelley hesitated for a while, but still said: "Sir, can you let Reed be your guard?
He is now a bronze warrior, and will definitely be a good helper for you."
Simon glanced at him and hesitated: "I'll think about it.
Are the foot soldiers in Slaver Bay really loyal?"
Kelley paused, expressionless: "As long as they are not too harsh, the foot soldiers can guarantee loyalty.
It is said that even if the Fearless Iron Warriors ask them to commit suicide, they will not hesitate at all, but the foot soldiers cannot."
"Sir Simon, I am willing to give you another hundred foot soldiers." He said slowly.
"Thank you so much, then Reed will follow me as a guard first, and I will give him a chance if there is a chance."
Simon was immediately satisfied. Reed is Kelley's second son. He is about 20 years old this year. He has been leading mercenaries in White Gull Port before.
"Thank you, sir." Kelley smiled slightly and said calmly.
He suddenly regretted choosing such a bet object in his heart. This guy doesn't look like a 16-year-old young man at all. He is too greedy!
Even if there was some scheming, it would be fine. The key point was that more than a hundred soldiers appeared out of nowhere and were very loyal to him.
Kelley had only sent people to test the militia in leather armor before, but they were all loyal to Simon and could not even find out their origins.
He dared not contact the guards like Aile and Sarit rashly. If they were reported to Simon, the relationship would definitely be strained.
After the secret talk, Simon returned to his room and put all the golden eagles into the storage pen.
Then he led the team to White Gull Port, and Kelley also led the mercenaries.
The night passed quickly, and the next day was the time for the wedding.
The wedding in the Eagle Kingdom is not complicated. The newlyweds put on new clothes, went to the church under the auspices of the priest, prayed and performed a ceremony, and signed a marriage certificate.
They didn't even have to eat.
There were many people watching the ceremony, basically all of whom were Kelley's connections.
Today, he was full of rosy faces and kept receiving the merchants and mercenary leaders who came to watch the ceremony.
However, there was a person of higher status who came. He was the butler of Marquis Val's mansion in Eagle City. He was also a nobleman, but he had no fiefdom.
"Baron Simon, I am entrusted by Marquis Val to come and congratulate him!" A man of medium build in a formal suit said politely.
The originally noisy hall suddenly became quiet.
Simon was slightly startled, and immediately went over and said enthusiastically: "Please convey my respect to Marquis Val, and may he live long!"
"I will convey it." After the butler bowed respectfully, he stepped aside.
Simon returned to the stage again and completed the process according to the instructions.
Since there was no dry meal, the time was chosen at nine o'clock in the morning, and everyone dispersed after the ceremony.
At this time, Simon regretted not visiting Marquis Val's mansion.
Although the main family members of the Marquis were taken to West Seti, after all, there were still lovers and butlers left behind, and visiting was also a matter of attitude.
He was undoubtedly a member of Marquis Val's family now.
"I have to be more careful in the future. Now is not the time to be a laborer." He warned himself in his heart.
But the problem was not big. Simon was just a freeman before. It was normal that he didn't understand politics. People tend to be more tolerant of novices.
After leaving the temple in Baiou Port, he planned to go shopping and change the equipment of the soldiers in his team.
Mainly those militiamen wearing leather armor have accumulated some reinforcement points and should be upgraded.
Place Winnis at the Fengjian Chamber of Commerce and let Kailin accompany her.
Simon gathered all his personal soldiers and acted together.
Baiou Port's trade was prosperous and close to the capital, and all kinds of goods were flourishing.
Soon after, he contacted an arms dealer, a caravan under the command of a nobleman named Earl Shandu in the south.
"Baron Simon, look, this is a full-body knight's plate armor, lined with a single layer of chain mail and cotton armor, and the outer layer is entirely made of fine iron.
If the weather is too hot, the cotton armor inside can be taken off.
Unless it is an enchanted weapon, it is impossible for any weapon to penetrate it.
This set of armor is relatively heavy and requires at least a high-level warrior or high-level knight to use it.
However, it is still recommended to equip a warrior or knight above bronze.
There are two sets of this kind of armor. One set costs one hundred and twenty golden eagles. If you wear chain mail and horse armor, you need to add another sixty golden eagles.
The one here is plate chain armor. The breastplate is entirely made of fine iron, and the other parts are made of tight iron armor. In addition, the gaps in the armor are all covered by double layers of chain armor.
The strength of a medium warrior or a medium knight or above is more suitable for assembly.
Elementary warriors can do it, but it will definitely affect the durability of the battle. A set of sixty golden eagles.
Sir, look here again, these are armors with iron breastplates lined with single or double layers of chain mail..."
The steward of the caravan gave a very detailed introduction. After all, with so many people here, Simon was a big customer at first sight, not to mention that he was actually a baron.
He silently calculated in his mind that the long archers and short archers did not need to go forward to fight, so they did not need to wear very good armor. Iron-leather armor was enough.
If the armor is too heavy, it will affect the physical strength of the archers. Drawing a bow is a laborious task.
In addition, Simon decided to equip each of them with a set of single-layer chain armor, covering the whole body to enhance their protection, and it was not heavy.
As a means of long-range attack, archers are not easy to train and are quite precious.
