Chapter 31 Tabby's Worries
Sure enough, after hearing Gevis' words, Tabi stopped acting. He stepped back with a smile on his face and replied to Gevis with a blank expression: "I'm very sorry, Baron, Viscount Lanny has an order that no outsiders are allowed to enter the camp."
"Since that's the case, I have only one request. You can get out of my buffer belt immediately." Since you have already broken up, Gevis is not at peace with them.
"Sir Baron, I'm very sorry. This is in the buffer zone. You have no right to order us to do anything. Only the king has this right!" Tabi also tore off his disguise and responded to Gervis.
"Very good, go back and tell your master, Viscount Lanny, I will find this place!" After saying that, without waiting for Tabby to continue speaking, Gevis took three of his men back the same way and walked towards the entrance of the trail.
To this point, it is useless to say more, and Gevis also knew that since Viscount Lanny dared to destroy the unspoken rules of the nobles, he could not retreat with his own words.
Through today's test, Gervis knew that there must be great benefits in the camp, otherwise Viscount Lanny would not risk the possibility of conflict with himself and the Jones family, and also seize the benefits here.
Tabby watched Gevis and his group gradually fade away, his face darkened. He had a premonition that Gevis might cause great trouble to Viscount Lanny.
Generally speaking, young nobles like Gervis are easy to fool, and have never seen any world. If you take some benefits, you can stop causing trouble.
Even if someone is not tempted by interests, he will get angry on the spot, and even immediately attack the camp gate with his subordinates. After all, he is young and energetic and cannot stand it. At that time, they will capture Gevis again. Although they cannot kill him, they can make him suffer, such as torture his subordinates in front of him and then put them back, which will definitely scare these nasty young people.
As for Gervis, it would not be a big deal if Viscount Lanny handled a little. Viscount Lanny's father was also an earl and had a good relationship with the king. As for the Jones family, since the old earl disappeared, it has no deterrent power.
This buffer belt still belongs to the king. As long as the king does not move, the newly promoted Count Alice has no choice but to do anything.
On the contrary, Gevis left so simply, which made Tabi a little worried. It was not scary for a young and calm person like Gevis. Even if such a person suppressed him for a while, when he became rich one day, he would definitely face revenge that would ruin the world.
"Prepare my horse for me, I want to go back to Blackstone Castle to report to Lord Viscount. You should be vigilant in the future and not make any mistakes."
Many thoughts kept lingering in my mind, Tabby felt that he should hurry back to the castle and report Gervis's affairs to Viscount Lanny.
Although Gervis is currently only a baron and his territory is still poor, Tabby feels that with Gervis' performance today and the identity of Count Alice's husband, it is difficult to be sure that one day will not grow up.
...
Gevis took his three subordinates back to the territory, stood beside the avenue and shouted twice at the woods. The left-behind guard immediately pulled the carriage out of the back of the woods, and Gevis and his men's horses were also tied to the carriage.
"Sir, you are back!" The guards pulled the carriage and hurried over to salute Gervis.
"Well, let's go back!" Gervis nodded, untied the reins of his horse from the carriage, and the other three people also stepped forward and pulled their horses back.
The journey back did not take long. When he came, Gevis had to patrol the three villages, so he circled around the territory. However, when he returned to the castle, he could go directly along the avenue, and the carriage was faster on the avenue.
While passing by the wild vines, Gevis asked the guards to pick some mature grapes, put them in a carriage, and took them back to the castle for the first winemaking experiment.
Today, I inspected the three villages and went to check Viscount Lanny's camp in the buffer zone. It took Gevis an afternoon, and the sky was getting darker.
Binhai Town cannot go to patrol today, so I can only wait for tomorrow. Fortunately, Binhai Town is next to the castle and can go anywhere.
Gerves took the lead and rushed to the gentle slope in front of the castle. The guards on the wall saw Gerves and others from afar, and immediately shouted to the castle: "Lord Lord is back."
The gates of the castle basically do not close during the day, so Gervis and his men rode in one after another.
"Lord!"
"Lord!"
Greetings were heard for a while. Although there were not many people in the castle now, there were two guards on duty under the gate of the castle.
At this moment, Thomas brought Johnny to the veterinary yard, and Johnny was holding a wooden tub in his hand.
Gevis parked the horses in front of the gate of the castle. Laurie and others followed behind Gevis. Seeing Gevis stopping the horses, they quickly moved the grapes and garlic from the carriage out of the carriage, and then urged the horses to leave the castle.
The few of them had one thing to do, so they unloaded the carriage and left the castle.
They are now going to Binhai Town to deal with Benny's subordinate.
Although the sun is about to set, the time period is just right. At this time, the serfs have basically come out of the fields and are on their way home. Now dealing with this subordinate of Benny can allow more people to see with their own eyes and know the lord's kindness.
"Baron, I'm so lucky." Before Gevis got off the horse, Thomas took Johnny to stand beside Gevis' horse. Seeing that Gevis was dismounting, Thomas hurried forward and held Gevis' arm.
After Gevis stood firmly on the ground, Thomas took out a wet towel from the wooden tub that Johnnyto was holding and handed it to Gevis, serving him very attentively.
Gevis was gradually accustomed to being served. Without the strangeness some time ago, he naturally took the towel handed over by Thomas and rubbed it hard on his face. The cold towel rolled the fine sweat on Gevis' face and left it empty. Gevis suddenly felt a cool feeling. Because of the buffer belt, the accumulated anger was dispelled a lot.
"Thank you very much, Thomas!" Gervis nodded to Thomas with satisfaction after putting the towel back into the wooden tub that Johnny was carrying.
"It is my honor to be able to serve you, Lord Baron!" Thomas saluted Gervis more respectfully when he heard Gervis' thanks.
Then he opened the way for Gervis in front, and reported while walking.
"Sir Baron, the seafood sent from the seaside village has been received. The servant has sent the seafood to the kitchen. However, the chef Jimmy dared not make the decision without authorization. He needs your instructions before he dared to cook the seafood."
"Very good. Don't move those seafood for the time being. I'll deal with it after I finish taking a shower. By the way, Thomas, I'll bring back those things for the time being."
"Okay, sir. The hot water is ready, you can go and take a shower at any time."
"Then you go and do it first, and I'll talk about it after I finish taking a shower."
Gevis sent Thomas, which was the benefit of someone in the castle knowing how to manage affairs of all sizes and big things. Gevis didn't need to worry about it at all, everything was arranged.
"It seems that you don't have to wait until you accept your father's goods, and you can now accept Thomas as the housekeeper." Gervis was very satisfied with Thomas' performance in the past two days. Both things were arranged in an orderly manner. Although he had some thoughts when dealing with serfs, Thomas was originally a person from this world. He learned how to serve the nobles in Rose Castle, so he naturally thought from the perspective of his master.
What is the attitude of the nobles toward serfs? That is exploitation. If you can use it for free, you will never pay a salary. You will spend the least benefits to get the greatest benefit from them.
If Geweis had not given special instructions yesterday, Thomas would never have given so much wages to the serfs who cleaned the castle, or even without any money. Besides, the boar, he could get a silver coin, which was also the result of Geweis' explanation.
After taking a shower, Gevis changed his clothes, first went to the living room on the second floor, and looked at Ike. The servant was changing his medicine. The servant said that Ike's condition was not very stable.
Ike is still in a coma and occasionally says nonsense, but one good news is that Ike does not have a high fever. Maybe he has been unconscious because of excessive blood loss. The weather is hot this season and it is extremely easy to cause wound infection. In this world without antibiotics, in addition to the title of Knight, ordinary people can basically arrange their funeral as long as they suffer from wound infection.
"Take good care of Ike, and come and notify me if you wake up." Gerves ordered the servant.
"As for the order, Lord Lord."
After coming out of the guest room, Gervis arrived on the first floor.
The nobles in this world know how to enjoy it. There are three halls on the first floor, one big and two small, the ones are used as preparations for large-scale events such as banquets, and the two small ones are used as places for ordinary aristocrats to relax, and sometimes they can also be used as places for noble vassals to discuss things.
Although the smaller hall is much smaller than the banquet hall, it is more than 80 square meters. The interior of the hall looks very empty at the moment because there are no decorations in the hall, only some tables and chairs carved with exquisite patterns. These tables and chairs are left behind because the Earl is not favored by them. After scrubbing, they are all as intact. As long as Gevis finds some decorations such as decorations, plus these furniture, it will definitely be a luxurious leisure hall for a noble master.
