Wandering Knight Start: I have a simple data panel
Chapter 22 Returning Home in Wealth
After packing his luggage, mainly gifts, Derek led a team of soldiers and a team of cavalry and set off on the road back home.
However, his cousin Adrian took the initiative to stay and take charge of the camp.
He knew that this was Derek's foundation and he couldn't be out of control for a long time.
Derek persuaded him a few times, but gave up when he saw that he was determined.
This time, in addition to going home to reunite, he also took the opportunity to give back some gifts.
Everyone helped at the beginning, and now they must give back.
Of course, he remembered that there were many cousins in the homes of several uncles and aunts, and they all received basic education. If he could abduct a few of them, it would be best to bring a group of young men to join the group like Adrian, which would be wonderful.
After all, they are his own relatives. If he doesn't take advantage of them, he doesn't know which bastard will get the advantage.
Instead of letting the young people of the family go out to work for those nobles, it is better to hang out with him.
Because he brought several carts of gifts, Derek walked for more than ten days before rushing home.
At this time, it was only half a month away from the New Year.
Mrs. Ferreira has been talking about Derek. All the children in the family have returned.
Including the second brother Sergei Ferreira who served in the Iron Lion Corps, the eldest brother Marco Ferreira who has been helping to manage the family at home, and the fourth brother Sherif Ferreira who was a knight apprentice under a viscount.
As for the eldest sister who married a knight, she will not come back this year.
The younger sister who joined the monastery will not come back either.
This year, the Ferreira family's business is good, and the two estates have also obtained a good harvest.
The tax was collected steadily, with almost no twists and turns.
The steadily rising family situation has kept Baron Ferreira in a good mood.
The only one who is a little annoying is the third son Derek.
He ran away to hang out, causing Mrs. Ferreira to talk about him every day recently, and her ears are almost calloused.
The last time he sent someone back, he also kidnapped a group of farmers, which made Baron Ferreira severely scold the second son Andrew.
Although he was harsh in his words, Baron Ferreira was still concerned about his son.
When wandering outside, you can always get more love from your parents.
No matter how harshly they scolded, they still hoped that Derek could be safe.
Until...
"Master Derek is back."
When the old butler told Baron Ferreira the news, the baron's butt was lifted up, but he forced himself to sit down.
"Humph! After a year away, he only brought back a letter. I thought he was dead somewhere, and he still knew to come back."
"Master, Master Derek brought you some gifts, so you should go and see them." The old butler handed over a step at the right time.
"It's good enough to be able to support yourself, and you also prepared gifts for me. I don't think he will be so poor that he will come back to ask me for money."
Baron Ferreira then slowly got up and prepared to see what gifts this disobedient son brought.
In fact, he also inquired about some news about Derek, including the correspondence of Knight Cloya, and knew that this kid was doing well.
Of course, doing the smuggling business is definitely licking blood on the edge of a knife.
Do you really think that there are no checkpoints, robbers, etc. along the way?
Just look at the unlucky guy killed by Lloyd, and you will know that the huge profits in this industry are not so easy to get.
When Baron Ferreira staggered to the parade ground in the castle, he found that he was the last one to arrive.
Several sons and Mrs. Ferreira had already arrived.
The fourth son, Sherif, was shouting and calling around a black warhorse.
"Third brother, you are so good. I finally have my own warhorse."
As a knight's squire, Sherif was as miserable as Derek, riding an ordinary riding horse assigned by the knight teacher, and it didn't belong to him.
The Ferreira family had some surplus every year, but they were not so extravagant as to equip each son with a warhorse, especially when you had money and it was difficult to buy one.
In fact, if Derek decided to stay at home, Baron Ferreira would prepare a warhorse and weapons and equipment for him.
The second son, Sergei, had been serving in the Iron Lion Corps and was a low-level officer of the kingdom. The weapons and equipment were all allocated by the kingdom.
The fourth son had not yet completed his studies as a knight's squire, so naturally he would not buy this one for him.
Therefore, it is a custom for the southerners to have a set of equipment and war horses in advance, except for the children of the great nobles.
The rough and poor nobles in the north often choose to be stingy.
Even if there has been no war for many years, everyone has accumulated some gold coins.
Just like Ferreira Castle, it is full of war style, or the style left over from the period of pioneering the north, more like a military castle, not suitable for living.
This is also the characteristic of the nobles in the north. Even if the nobles in the middle and the nobles in the south despise it, they still do not change.
Compared with Sharif's cheers, the second brother Sergei and the eldest brother Marco pay more attention to the soldiers and knight attendants he brought back.
These swordsmen who are more suitable for street fighting and more versatile look like elite temperaments, and look more sturdy than the soldiers of the Ferreira family.
And the knight attendants, although they are called attendants, are more like knights than knights.
Iron-studded leather armor, fine iron long swords, hand armor, war horses, helmets.
They were armed to the teeth, Simon was wearing half-body armor, and their horses were covered with leather armor. Their eyes were so sharp that people dared not look directly at them.
Following Derek was not just training.
Occasionally, they followed Lloyd to play the role of bandits and horse bandits, and to fight against the petty thieves who didn't have eyes.
Who didn't have blood on their hands in a year?
Good fellow, this is not a wandering knight, poorer barons would not dare to put on such a show.
"What did the third brother do when he went out?"
Sergey quickly recalled, thinking about where the new horse bandit gangs emerged in the northern province.
How can they accumulate such a family business except robbing?
Baron Ferreira also saw it, and the surprise in his eyes flashed, but fortunately it did not make him lose color.
"Why are you shouting? Can you afford to raise a warhorse?"
Baron Ferreira slapped Sharif on the head, successfully attracting everyone's attention.
"Where is the gift?"
This was said to Derek.
Derrick knew what kind of character his father was, and he didn't care.
He motioned Simon to come forward, and the latter brought someone to bring a box.
Open!
A complete set of knight equipment.
From helmets, arm armor, hand armor, half-body armor, skirt hem, knee pads, iron boots.
Then there are ten-forged knight swords, knight spear heads, and a hand shield.
Finally, there are iron masks and chain mail for warhorses.
Although it is not really heavy armor, it is a low-profile knight suit.
It is definitely the treasure that most knights dream of, and it is enough to be passed down from generation to generation.
For a whole set, one hundred gold coins is definitely cheap.
The annual output of a micro-manor is about this price.
If it is well maintained, it can definitely be passed down for generations.
Most parts of the body are protected, and the defense is above the standard.
The key is that you can't buy it even if you have money.
From materials to craftsmanship, a certain technical threshold is required.
Derek himself didn't have a whole set. It took little Tru and his team to work overtime for a month to make it, just to present it to Baron Ferreira.
Of course, Derek is ready to get more wool back.
