Tales of the Reincarnated Lord

　　 Chapter 45 The Convoy and Baijun

　　 Yeah, why not go back? I can regard this trip back to the Northland as a new adventure, go back to see the family territory, and also end the resentment of the original owner of the body, Little Locke, hidden in the soul mark of homesickness. Being an improper lord depends on the situation. You can't just leave things for yourself. It's not too late to return to Morant to become a rich man. Why bother with insomnia every night?

　　Thinking about this, Lori Stuttton felt that his eyes suddenly opened up, as if the burden on his body was lifted, and the whole person was relieved. But even if he thinks that he wants to go back, he doesn't mean to just leave, and Lorester has to plan it out. Especially when Pat recovers...

Lorester stood by the study window and watched Reddy help Pat into the yard like a dead dog, tied it to the iron swivel chair, and then grabbed the pull rope under the swivel chair and started to turn the swivel chair. Turn faster. Pat, tied to a swivel chair, has been tortured and dying in recent days. Not only is he unable to resist, he can't even scream, but occasionally retches weakly in protest...

Hehe, ask for trouble, do you really think that dynamic visual ability is so easy to obtain? I think in the past life, I and my comrades in the Great Wall of Steel are all good men with strong bones, and they won’t wrinkle their brows when they go up to the sword and down the fire. Hanging on the color without humming, taking a knife to pick out the bullet directly from the wound is even more comfortable, but everyone is afraid of this swivel chair. No one can hold on for two days. They are afraid of it and avoid it. .

The nausea and vomiting feeling like turning the sky dim and dim is too uncomfortable. All seven-foot iron men can be soft like noodles after getting off the swivel chair. The involuntary feeling is really uncomfortable. . More than four months ago, I used Reddy as an experiment, and it took almost two months for Reddy to adapt and recover. I remember that Bodfinger tried it after his injury, and then thanked Bumin. As long as it was not forced, no one could consciously persist.

　　 Now Reddy is repeating the process that Lorester forced him to train, but the subject was changed to Pat. No wonder he was so gleeful and gloating. Obviously, he was very happy that someone made his mistake again. People are like this, they will be very happy to watch others repeat their unfortunate process, just like falling into a pit, although they have already climbed up, I always hope that more latecomers will fall into that pit.

　　 It's already the seventh day for Pat like this, and it seems like Reddy, he can't recover within two months. Lorist felt that even if he returned to the family territory, he couldn't just take the three of Sederkamp and Pat back empty-handed. I remember that the family caravan led by the third uncle had a total value of more than 1,000 Kingford, which was just a very small caravan for Morente City. But just such a caravan earns more than three hundred golden fortunes once a year, which is equivalent to more than one thousand empire gold coins. These are just the income of Lorist’s current one-year salary, which allows the Norton family to use military and financial resources. Reached the culmination in family history.

　　 Lorist is not short of Kingford now. He decided to use a few thousand Kingford to organize a caravan, or a transport team, to provide the Norton family with a batch of supplies to support the increasingly troubled family. Regardless of whether he inherits the territory or not, at least this is also a contribution that a descendant of Norton should make to the family, and it is also regarded as Lorist's compensation for occupying the body of Little Locke.

However, there are still a lot of troubles to organize a caravan. First of all, the size of the caravan and what are the materials to be transported. This requires Lorist to have a clear understanding of the family territory, knowing what the family lacks and what it needs, and It wasn't that Lorester had purchased a batch of supplies, and after all the hardships arrived, he discovered that there was not much use.

This is easy to handle. Don’t look at Sederkamp’s lack of decent vindictiveness, but he is usually a jack-of-all-trades in family territory. He knows everything and has a strong calculation ability for material storage. Mr. Kreis is already conscious. He has carried out some preliminary training in the field of stewardship. Lorist brought Sedkamp to the study every night to ask about the situation of some family territories, or asked Sedkamp to introduce himself, and said whatever he thought of. Lorist took notes, and then summed it up to know what was needed in the family territory.

　　 What materials are needed are solved, but what about the caravan's manpower? Lorist thinks to go, that is himself, Sedkamp and Pat. Reddy still doesn’t know if he’s willing to go with him. He’s only seventeen after this year, no matter how hard he tries to practice these two or three. Can only be promoted to Black Iron One Star within a month. And this trip is also risky, Lorist is not going to take him on an adventure. Let's put this issue aside first. If it doesn't work, we will hire some temporary staff at a high price and send this caravan, oh, transportation convoy to the Northland. Lorist did not believe that he could not find anyone with a lot of Kingford.

　　 Next is the route. From the map, there are three traffic avenues for Morient City to reach the former Imperial Capital of the Christian Empire, and there is only one road from the Imperial Capital to the Northland. I remember it took 57 days for Little Locke to travel from Northland to Morente City with the caravan led by his third uncle. Little Locke took a carriage, and the caravan was mainly four-wheeled freight carriages. The distance. In this way, the Northland is about six thousand miles away from Moriente.

　　 Before the Christian Empire was still there, the roads were relatively smooth. Unlike now, the entire empire was divided into three kingdoms and seven principalities. Clearing customs along the way was a hassle. As a nobleman, Lorist returned to the family territory to inherit the territory. The team he led did not do business, so he probably wouldn't pay a lot of customs duties, right? This situation has to be found out clearly. Would you like to contact President Peterson? Lorist thought so, the Peterson Chamber of Commerce must have a caravan to go to the Imperial Capital, and it will be much more convenient for the caravan to go with them. When you arrive in the Imperial Capital, you will find a way to return to the North.

Finally, there is the issue of the defense and **** of the convoy. I heard that the former Christian Empire seems not to be peaceful now. There are often caravans looted by robbers, causing many casualties. These news are repeated in the Morient Daily and Faliqiu Business News. With the posting, Lorester would naturally not care about the **** team if he watched too much. He decided to spend a high price to hire a mercenary group to escort, so he went to the mercenary guild to inquire about the price.

　　 After returning from the Mercenary Guild, Lorist's face remained dark. No one would have thought that hiring a mercenary regiment of forty or fifty people to **** the convoy to the north would cost a thousand golden fortunes, and it also required a small convoy. The leader of the golden-rank mercenary also stated clearly that this is the lowest price. If the convoy has more than twelve carriages, or if there are weapons and armors in the carriage, the cost of **** will be doubled. This is not to sit on the ground and start the price, but there is no way.

　　 After six years of fighting for power, the people of the former Christian Empire are not living, and there is a lot of smoke. There are gangsters everywhere, and even some nobles or lords have participated in the robbery posing as robbers. If Lorist’s convoy had weapons and armors and other military supplies, they would definitely be targeted by those bandits. If the mercenary group could not kill a **** path, they would not be able to complete the **** mission.

　　 The supplies that Lorist was preparing to transport happened to contain a batch of weapons and armor, because Sedkamp said that the family territory was short of these equipment. The cost of escorting two thousand Jinfords was more than double the total value of that batch of weapons and equipment. Rather than let the mercenary group escort, it is better to recruit a hundred silver mercenaries temporarily to organize the escort, and take 20 gold coins to travel to the north. I believe that many silver mercenaries will rush to sign up and participate. The issue of the **** team should also be put on hold, and we will talk about it then.

　　 Lorist got busy like this. During this time, he ran around in the business district of Morente City, asking about the price of the materials he was going to deliver to the family territory. Perhaps Lorester regarded the delivery of supplies to the family territory as a mercenary commission he accepted. In his mind, he didn't think about what to do when the supplies arrived. He only planned to stay in the family territory for a while and then return. Anyway, with so much material support to the family, it is considered that he has done the contribution and responsibility to the family for Little Locke, and in the future, he can stay in Morient City with a clear conscience and enjoy his life.

　　 What Lorist could not think of was that his busyness during this period of time became another meaning in the eyes of someone with a heart. The first one to ask Lorist was Reddy: "Master, are you going to return to the family territory?"

　　 Lorist nodded, he was going to go back, but it was hard to say how long he stayed or not. Just when Reddy came over, let’s talk about his arrangements for Reddy. It’s not bad to let him stay here to look after the house: "Reddy. Just stay here. The remote northland is a long way away. This time I may go there. If you are at risk, just stay..."

"No, master, I must follow you." Reddy interrupted Lorist's unfinished words very firmly: "I am your attendant. How can I leave you? I won't let you take me. left."

　　 Lorist was a little startled: "What about old Gal and El against? It's too far, very risky..."

"I originally came to Moriente to join a mercenary group. Who knew that they did not form a mercenary group but became a community organization, so I wouldn't mix with them. I have no relatives anymore, and I am naturally the owner with my master. I'll go wherever I go. It's useless for anyone to object!" Reddy said with a flushed face, it seems that he has made up his mind.

　　 "Well, let's go together." Lorist agreed. He didn't want Reddy to feel abandoned. The kid was a bit stubborn and liked to compete. Anyway, I want to come back. This trip to the Northland should take Reddy on an adventure, so there is one more Reddy among those who went to the Northland with him.

　　 When Sederkamp left the study, he happened to meet Bodfinger who was upstairs, and he quickly stepped aside and bowed his head respectfully. He was originally curious about the middle-aged mercenary who was treated as a guest by the young master. Bodfinger had just returned from a mercenary mission a few days ago and asked him about the situation of the Northland and the Norton family in detail. When Sederkamp knew that the middle-aged mercenary in front of him was also from the North, and he had served as the captain of the former Christian Empire Heavy Armed Corps, he was even more in awe.

　　 "Locke is in the study?" Bodfinger asked.

　　 "Yes," Sedkamp replied.

　　 "Thank you," Bodhfinger said.

　　 Lorist was sorting out the list of supplies needed by the family. Just now, he looked for Sedkamp and asked about some information for fear of omissions. From this list, we can see how scarce the resources available to the family territory are, and I really doubt how the family survived in the Northland. Now I feel a headache. If all the materials on the list are delivered to the family territory, it would be impossible to do without hundreds of long-distance freight carriages. And to lead a convoy of hundreds of carriages to travel far and wide to the north, this is beyond his own ability. It seems that a part of the list has to be cut down and choose the most urgently needed materials to buy. It is easiest to control the size of the fleet to 20 or 30 vehicles.

　　 "When will you go back?" Bodfinger asked Lorist.

"Ah, Borg, you are here." Lorist greeted first, leaned back, and stretched out a lazy kiln: "I have to wait for Pat to recover, there will be more than two months left. I. Ready to leave around November 20th."

　　 "Oh..." Bodfinger nodded: ‘I came back two days ago and asked about the current situation of your family in Sedkamp, ​​the domestic and foreign difficulties. I thought you wouldn't go back. "

"No way, the family needs me now. As a descendant of Norton, I must go back and share the troubles with the family." Lorist smiled and shook his head. He felt that he seemed too tragic when he said this. Well, he must have performed too much. Now, as if he really wanted to abandon everything in Morient City and return to the family territory to suffer.

　　 "By the way, Borg, you came just right, and I have something for you." Lorist hurriedly changed the subject.

　　 Lorist opened the drawer, took out a high-level vindictive secret book, and five gold dollar scrolls, and placed them on the table.

"Borg, you are a metallic grudge, this is the grievance cheat I prepared for you. You can reach the peak of the golden rank. There is also a paragraph of insights and gains written by the original owner of this cheat after he was promoted to the Great Sword Master. It was my former girlfriend who gave me a memorial of breaking up, but it didn’t work for me. Now I’m passing it on to you, I hope you break through to the golden rank as soon as possible. As for whether you can become a great swordsman in the future, it’s up to you to work hard. Don’t Reject, this is also a gift for you when I leave."

　　 Bodfinger lowered his head, his body trembling slightly...

Lorist did not pay attention, and just said that he had made arrangements for the Bodfinger family: "As for these five hundred gold coins, they are not for you. They are gifts from my teacher to the students Sward and the lovely Alyssa. You take care of it. Schwarte has good qualifications, but you should also pay attention to nutrient absorption and physical exercise. After he awakens his vindictiveness, you will first be responsible for teaching him some basic knowledge. If his vindictiveness attribute is different from yours, then I will I figured out a way to get him a high-level fighting spirit secret book."

"By the way, if I leave, I believe you will not want to continue living here. I have already asked Toel to buy a house near the Red Crow Tavern for your family to move in. Then when you go out for mercenary missions Swarder and Alyssa can also be taken care of by the old Gar of the Red Crow Tavern. Actually, if you want to, I will ask the college to hire you as a teacher. You can live here when you are promoted to the golden rank. It’s also good for children..."

　　 Lorist hadn't finished speaking, suddenly Bodfinger stood up, turned around and went out without looking back.

　　 "Uh..." Lorist was stunned, what does this mean?

　　 After a while, Lorist heard footsteps in the corridor, and then there was a knock on the door, and Bodfinger returned.

　　 But Bodfinger changed into a formal dress, which seemed to be the dress of a former Christian Empire officer, wearing a sword. I saw Bodfinger take a few steps forward seriously, then knelt down on one knee in front of Lorist, holding the sword in both hands over his head, and bowed his head to sign up: "Former Imperial Defense Army White Lion Corps Third Heavy Armor Division Ninth The captain of the brigade, Gure Bodfinger, volunteered to be the Lord Norton Lorist and loyal to the Norton family. May the God of War show mercy and let his ministers make contributions under the banner of Norton and live up to the Lord's expectations."

　　 Lorist jumped up in shock. This is a worship service. Generally, it is a gift of allegiance to the emperor, king, or prince of the principality when the subjects meet the monarch. If this etiquette is used for the nobles, it means that the giver will be connected with the future destiny of the receiving ruler. Regardless of whether the ruler is rich or poor in the future, the giver will loyally accompany him for life, and he will follow to the end even if the ruler seeks to rebel. This is a further relationship than the family knight and the owner.

　　 "Borg, this is...this is..." Lorist didn't know what to do.

　　 Bodfinger lowered his head and said nothing, keeping his posture motionless.

　　 Didn’t it mean that the two parties must communicate before the worship ceremony? How can there be such a sudden attack? Lorist couldn’t. He took the long sword offered by Bodhfinger and took the sword out of its sheath. He put the blade of the long sword on Bodhfinger’s head, tapped the shoulders on each side twice, and muttered: "From From today, you and my blood are connected together. You regard me as your master, and I regard you as brothers and feet. Let the God of War witness our pledge, and let the years to inscribe the glory of the future."

　　 Lorist had to respond. If he hesitated for a long time, it would make the giver think that he was ignored. This is the biggest insult. The serious one would kill himself on the spot, and the light one would regard him as a lifelong enemy.

　　 Taking the saber handed over by Lorist, Bodfinger stood up and bowed deeply to Lorist: "My lord."

　　 Lorist smiled bitterly: "Borg, why bother? You could have stayed out of the matter, staying in Morient City at ease, why bother to jump into the fire pit with me!"

Bodfinger chuckled: "I won't stay in Morient. To be honest, I've long wanted to go back to my hometown, Northland. But I still have to join a certain family when I get back to my hometown. It's better to just follow the adult, let alone Isn’t it right to say that adults are kind to me and worship the Lord as the Lord?"

　　 "What about those two kids?" Lorist got a headache...

"I asked Sward. He said that adults are his masters, and of course they have to go with them. As for Alisa, she should grow as healthy and robust as the thorns in the mountains, not like the flowers in the greenhouse. , Delicate and delicate. I think the adults are too spoiled for her. The daughter of the Northland will naturally return to the Northland to withstand the temper of the wind and snow." Bodfinger replied.

　　 "Oh..." Well, now there are more Bodfingers in the tour group to the Northland.

Bodfinger stepped forward and took the metal high-level fighting spirit cheats: "Well, now I can take this cheats in a fair way. I hope I can be promoted to the golden level in two months, so that I can better serve adults. Effectiveness."

　　 Bodfinger turned to leave.

　　 "Borg, don't call me an adult, call me the same as before." Lorist said.

　　 "Okay, Lord Locke."
