There were 27 women, 30+ children, and a dozen craftsmen. In the slave trade, this was consider a big sum of money, and as for the Swift Sword gang that stooped to forming a gang of bandits, this was a rare major score for them.
The guesses that certain people made were a little off the mark. Currently, the Swift Sword gang that caused trouble around the new knight domain lord wasn't simply a last-minute gang formed by deserters. Their true identity was a large mercenary group that the rebelling marquis had hired, named Brave Swift Sword Mercenaries.
As for the mercenary group, the entire group being taken in by a major domain lord like Marquis Stanley was an extremely rare but good thing. The group of mercenaries could naturally obtain the government's organization and supplies. Ordinary members could obtain rich reimbursement and have opportunities to get promoted. As for the higher execs, this was the only shot for them to become noblemen.
