Chereads / Start As a Lord In a Viscount / Chapter 14 - Proud Mellie

Chapter 14 - Proud Mellie

After the four knights sent the news to all the villages, the boys of the right age in those villages started from their homes and rushed to the city of Nafu.

In the dark night, you can see that with Nafu City as the center, sparks are rushing to Nafu City, and they are all teenagers who have been rushing all night.

The teenagers who were close to the city of Nafu walked overnight, and the teenagers from the farther villages took a carriage to the city of Nafu together.

Going to the military camp for training not only does not have to pay, but also has a salary, which makes some teenagers who didn't want to become knights in their hearts. Even if they work at home, they can't earn 500 copper coins a month, and they can save a portion of the family's food by going to the military camp.

This is a win-win situation, so any boy who meets the recruitment conditions will now want to become a knight of the Viscount.

In the early morning of the next day, the city of Nafhu was crowded with young people from all over the world. Compared with the previous time when Claire recruited a maid, the number was much larger.

Claire didn't come forward in person either, and handed over the selection to the knight captain Hunter, but just watched the crowded scene in the castle for a few moments, and then went back to the basement to continue the experiment.

"There are still two days...the next transaction will be made." Claire mused.

During the distraction, a blue potion appeared from the beaker with the skillful operation in the hand. It was the primary healing potion used in the previous transaction. For Claire, this level of potion can be easily made even by distraction. .

What he has to do now is to find the best configuration for this primary healing potion and see if it can be mass-produced.

Generally speaking, magic potions can only be made by magicians. If you can produce them yourself, then there will be no shortage of gold coins in the Viscounty in the future. A tube of potion that costs less than three silver coins can be sold for about three gold coins in a magic shop. This nearly 100 times the profit really makes him tempted.

However, it backfired. Even if Claire has practiced to the level that she can make potions with her eyes closed, the refining of potions does not seem to be that simple to produce energy. Many times when magic ingredients are added, different reactions will occur. If you have enough experience to balance the changes in the potion, it will cause the entire bottle of potion to fail, so it is estimated that it will take a long time for mass production.

Claire was not in a hurry, she threw the medicine she had refined in her hand into the space ring, and continued to study it.

The recruitment of knights was over when the sun went down, and the knight captain Hunter had a happy smile on his face at this time. This time he recruited knights and found a lot of good seedlings, but they were the sons of ordinary villagers, so they looked a little thin. , but after entering the military camp, the nutrition will come up, and the possibility of becoming a knight is still very high!

This time, a total of fifty-seven teenagers were recruited. Including the four of them originally, there are now a total of sixty-one.

Those teenagers who were not recruited had to return to their villages in disappointment. The recruitment this time was very fair, even if they were not recruited, they were willing.

The recruited boys were brought back to the barracks by Hunter, who distributed knight costumes and told them some knight rules.

The faces of the teenagers were full of excitement, and they even listened to the boring rules with relish.

"Congratulations now that you have become the qualifiers for knights! But if you want to become knights, you have to work **** your own. If you don't work hard, you will be eliminated by the Viscount like the previous batch. Is that clear!" Hunter shouted loudly! .

"It's clear!" the boys shouted loudly, their faces turning red.

Hunter nodded with satisfaction, "Very good! Let me tell you some good news! Tomorrow, the Viscount will come to inspect you in person, and you will perform better then, understand!"

The teenagers were full of excitement when they heard this. Although they had never met the Viscount in person, they had heard of everything he did, including tax reduction and exemption, and his outstanding appearance.

"Understood!"

Infected by the enthusiasm of the group of teenagers, Hunter seemed to have returned to the time when his father trained him when he was young, and a happy smile appeared on his face.

"Okay! Then you rest, get up on time at 5:30 tomorrow!" After speaking, Hunter glanced at the young man below, and no one raised any objection.

If it was the team members before him, they would definitely stand up and resist now, saying things like why they got up so early.

But getting up at 5:30 is really nothing for these teenagers. When they usually help with farm work at home, sometimes they get up earlier than this, let alone for training and still have money.

Hunter then continued: "After getting up, go to the playground and run 30 laps, then come back and make your beds, and then go to eat! We will start the real training at eight o'clock!"

"Understood, Captain!" The boys below shouted in unison.

Hunter smiled slightly and glanced at his three colleagues. This is the real military camp. The place where he stayed before was simply an undisciplined pig's den.

"Then go to bed, go to bed early, don't be unable to get up tomorrow." Hunter's voice became lower at this time.

After the four of Hunter left, the teenagers didn't sleep, but became even more excited. Although their bodies were lying on the bed, their heads kept looking around, greeting and chatting with the people beside them.

I was so excited that I couldn't sleep, and I didn't know how long it took before I fell asleep slowly, with a happy smile on my face.

In the early morning, a carriage drove out of the Viscount's Mansion. This time the groom was not Reagan anymore. He went to find a young man who could be eliminated on horseback during the knight recruitment yesterday to become a groom. Driving a carriage every time.

The boy who became a groom is also very happy. Although the 400 copper coins this month are not as many as recruiting knights, they are not far behind, and they don't have to train so hard every day.

The carriage passed through the market, and passersby on the side saw that it was Lord Viscount's carriage, and they all consciously stepped aside to facilitate Claire's travel.

After the carriage drove far away, the people behind were still looking around, the Viscount had been here for almost a week, and they hadn't seen each other yet.

The distance between the military camp and the Viscount Mansion was not far, and it took a few minutes to reach the vicinity of the military camp.

Suddenly Claire saw a familiar figure out of the corner of her eye and shouted, "Stop!"

"Shut up!"

The carriage was forcibly pulled to a stop, and a few meters of white marks appeared on the brakes.

"What's wrong, young master?" Reagan asked anxiously.

"No big deal." Claire waved, "I met an acquaintance..."

"Acquaintances?" Reagan was puzzled, does the young master still have acquaintances in Nafu City?

Mei Li had a bamboo basket on her head, and two baby fat hands supported the bamboo basket on her head and jumped to the military camp.

Suddenly, Mei Li felt that the weight of the bamboo basket on her head suddenly became lighter, and she couldn't help but stop and head towards it.

It was a face that was somewhat familiar, but from this angle, it seemed that it was impossible to tell who was coming.

Mei Li turned around and took a few steps back. After seeing the person on the opposite side, her eyes lit up, and she said with joy, "Big brother! You are coming to Nafu City too."

"That's right." Claire mentioned the bamboo basket that Timely had just held, and there was still some weight on it.

"Why are you here?" Claire showed a kind smile.

"I'm here to find my brother!" Melly raised her chest and said proudly, "He's a knight now, and the wish he told you last time has come true!"

When she said this, it was as if she was the one who fulfilled her wish.

"Oh!" Claire pretended to be surprised, "It's amazing."

"That's not right!" Mellie was so proud that she almost threw her head to the back.

This kind of little girl's pure and unpretentious pride is really not offensive. Claire smiled and rubbed the other's little head.

"Hee hee." Mei Li cheered a few times, "Where are you going, big brother?"

"Don't worry about where I go. Although your home is not close to Nafhu City, you came here alone?" Claire asked with narrowed eyes. UU reading www.uukanshu.com

"Ah this..." Mei Li instantly became nervous, "I... that..."

"Did you run here secretly from your parents?" Claire continued to ask.

Mei Li's little face was already flushed, like a prisoner who was caught, but she was in a hurry to come up with a good excuse, "I brought food for my brother! Mmmm, yes! Although the Viscount The adults are in charge of the meals, but I was afraid that my brother would not be used to it, so I came to him with the delicious food at home! If you don't believe me, look!"

In fact, it was because Mei Li hadn't seen her brother for a day, and she suddenly missed her brother, so she ran out of the house. Fortunately, all the good people she met along the way gave her the route to the military camp, otherwise she would I'm still wandering around Nafu City now.

Claire lifted the cloth on the bamboo basket, only to see the wheat bread and a piece of dark roasted meat inside, and the corner of her mouth twitched.

At the same time, the teenagers in the military camp looked at the head-sized pieces of meat and the bread that smelled of flour in front of them, with surprised expressions, which they had never seen even on any major festival. what.

The teenagers were stunned, none of them dared to take the lead and stared blankly at others.

"Hurry up and eat it for me! The food is made for you! How can you have the strength to train if you are not full!" Hunter shouted loudly.

After this roar, the teenagers picked up the knives and forks and started to deal with the food in front of them. Looking at the devoured teenagers, Hunter couldn't help but move his index finger and bury his head to eat.

This breakfast meal cost at least two gold coins, Hunter secretly said, but this also shows that the Viscount is very determined to support the military camp!
