Chapter 285

A motorcade was moving slowly along the road by the silver moon river. Hundreds of elite cavalry were patrolling in front and back of the motorcade. Among them, the most remarkable were 30 soldiers sitting on the fast bird. These distinctive light cavalry surrounded both sides of an aristocratic carriage.

The closed noble carriage is pulled by four strong horses. The carriage is gorgeous and thick, like a moving cabin. The wall of the carriage is sealed with silver moon heraldry. Followed by 15 large carriages with strange shapes. These carriages are made of mahogany and copper rivets, which are special products of the dark forest. They are very strong and durable. The carriages are divided into upper and lower layers. The lower layer is loaded with goods and the upper layer is loaded with people. The compartment wall is rows of fences, and the rain proof canopy supported by oil canvas is used as the roof, When necessary, the rolled oil canvas can be put down to resist the rain and snow from the side. This open design is convenient for ventilation and reduces the weight of the carriage. The only disadvantage is that it is not too warm, but each carriage is full of passengers, and dozens of people are crowded together, so it will not be too cold. The open wagons were followed by seven common baggage wagons, as well as spare horses, animals and hundreds of hounds.

The migration team composed of more than 20 carriages and hundreds of cavalry continued for hundreds of meters and drove northward. The crisp sound of rolling wheels crushing dead leaves was intertwined with the neighing of horses, the barking of hounds and the noise of passengers.

The noise, which had passed into the carriage of the noble carriage, had become faint and inaudible. Lilia drew the curtains on the car, curled up on the sofa and said, "it's incredible. We moved from Heibao to Randall for more than 20 days. Now it only takes us 14 days to reach Raven town in the north."

"Randall collar four years ago was still a wilderness, with neither supply points nor roads. Now the human horse hills are under construction. In order to run stones and materials, the York family took the lead in improving the roads and sentries along the river. We don't need to hunt for supplies, camp, or send people to find the way." Victor said with a smile, "of course, the key is the difference between walking and riding."

"Little financial fan, are you still opposed to me building passenger and freight carriages?"

Lilia was puzzled by many of Victor's measures to develop large passenger and freight carriages. The family territory is rich in forest resources. Victor wanted to buy Baron Schultz's mahogany. The hill camp can make carriages for free. Victor had to get off the horse and order from the workshops in each village.

Victor explained that the purpose of purchasing mahogany is to deepen the influence on Baron Schultz's collar and let the villagers make money. It can not only stimulate their labor enthusiasm, but also improve their sense of belonging to Randall's collar. At the same time, it can attract vendors to do business in Pinghu Town. As a rule maker, the Lord has too many ways to earn money back.

Lilia didn't understand these principles, but she went crazy immediately after calculating the cost.

The carpentry workshops in each village work together to manufacture lizard skin wheels, axles, beams, frames and walls. Their efficiency is amazing. They can assemble two carriages every three days. In the traditional way of carriage manufacturing, carpenters with several apprentices can't build one carriage in a month. However, the wages for making carriages are also very different. A carpenter can earn up to 4 kinsol for building a carriage, but Randall has to pay 10 kinsol for producing a carriage, because there are too many people involved, and each carriage needs at least 80 labor.

The cost of each carriage is 50 gold sols, plus the cost of pulling horses and purchasing raw materials. Randall's 80 carriages cost a total of 4000 kingsol! This does not include spare parts for the carriage.

Lilia couldn't bear the feeding cost of pulling horses. These giant horses weighing nearly 2600 pounds were all big stomach kings. Even if you eat more, you should always feed * * feed! I really eat more than cattle and better than people.

During this trip to Raven Town, the benefits of passenger and freight carriages have finally been highlighted.

Victor visited Raven town not only to arrange the smuggling caravan to go north, but also to migrate people and ensure the actual control of the territory. Therefore, Lilia recruited more than 500 refugees and took 15 carts to the north. Raven town is thousands of kilometers away from Pinghu Town. If it takes at least 40 days to walk, there is no need to mention the hardships. The food supplies purchased along the way are a lot of expenses. The passenger and freight carriages can travel 60 kilometers a day and reach the destination in up to 20 days, saving time and a lot of food expenses.

Thinking of this, Lilia leaned on Victor's shoulder with a smile and said, "honey, you're the greatest."

In March of the windy season, the weather turns cool, but the carriage is warm and pleasant. Lilia was wearing a thin silk inner skirt, bare white feet, and a straight and slender leg curled outside the skirt. Because she insisted on exercise, the lines were very beautiful and smooth, without any fat. Her smooth skin shone with charming luster, which greatly moved victor.

Lilia's appearance is outstanding among ordinary people, but she is worse than the Elena sisters. Since she married Victor, she paid special attention to the maintenance and beauty. She insisted on wiping her body alternately with hot and cold towels every day. Her skin gradually became soft and firm. Judy didn't forget to please the personal maid loved by Victor and sent someone to send the secret prescription of the lady's beauty medicine. After taking it, some freckles on Lilia's face faded, Coupled with the shaping and blood activating effect of the secret shape of the monkey, Lilia is radiant at this time. She has a thin waist and peach hips. She is charming and fit. In terms of temperament and appearance, she is even better than ordinary noble ladies.

It was a long way. Victor and his lover shared a carriage, but nothing happened.

"Click."

At the other end of the carriage, little Belle in maid's clothes lay on the table, wholeheartedly crushed a stem fruit with pliers, took out the nuts from the hard shell and put them into the nearby jar. The little guy's posture and expression are completely in line with the maid's manners. It would be more perfect if she didn't keep stealing nuts.

She secretly observed master victor and Mrs. Lilia, and then stuffed the nuts into her mouth in the most hidden way. Unfortunately, the chewing sound in her mouth was so loud that even Lilia could hear it.

Victor was immediately happy. He waved and said, "bell, come here. Let me see how many nuts you've peeled?"

Bell looked up at Victor, and then looked down at the shallow layer of nuts in the silver jar. While swallowing the delicious food in his mouth, he slowly walked to Victor with the jar in his arms. His eyes turned straight, and his little head was thinking of Countermeasures in the melon seeds.

Although the carriage was large and bell was small, it was a few steps away, but she lingered for a long time and didn't come. Finally, she simply fell, rolled on the cashmere blanket and scattered the nuts in the jar everywhere.

"Oh! Master, the nuts are scattered." Bell flapped his big eyes and said innocently, "the nuts are dirty. Let bell eat them."

"Well, all right." Victor deliberately teased her, dragged a long tone and said, "well... You don't have to eat tonight's dinner. It seems that there is roast venison."

Bell was happy at first, then his red face collapsed, tears were brewing in his eyes, his nose was pumping, and he was about to cry. Lilia was so distressed that she took her over, put her on her lap and comforted her: "adults are teasing you. Of course bell can have dinner."

Victor smiled and said, "if you spoil bell so much, how will she be a qualified noble maid in the future?"

Lilia gave Victor a white look, and bell buried her little head in her arms. Perhaps because of the bumpy carriage, perhaps because of Lilia's warm embrace, bell soon fell asleep.

Lilia took bell to the small bed, stared at her for a while, and sighed, "bell is really poor. Although I lost my parents since childhood, I have a brother and now you. Bell has no relatives."

She has a terrible father and a father who can't see the light.

Victor silently make complaints about him. In fact, even if the mountain fortress is exposed, it's no big deal, but he can't let outsiders know about taking in wizards and orc trade, even Lilia. Victor was not worried that Lilia would leak, but to protect her. Keeping wizards is very dangerous. Once the church learns, Victor may not be okay, but Lilia is likely to be an example to the church.

Although bell was young and ignorant, others would not take her words seriously, and Victor did not dare to take risks. He not only carefully checked the people bell contacted, but also went to the chapel in person and beat around the Bush at father Miller. After confirming that there was no risk, he took her with him. Bell was clever enough to stop talking about his father after receiving Victor's warning. However, the little girl is delicious, playful and energetic. It's a headache to run out to play with children without paying attention.

"You think she's pathetic?" Victor shook his head and said, "this little guy is not beautiful, but also greedy for food and play. I don't know why so many people like her... Even dogs like her!"

Lilia thought carefully and said with a smile, "I felt very kind and lovely when I first saw her... There are always some people who are particularly likable. Bell is such a person."

Victor nodded and was about to speak, but the carriage began to slow down and stopped gradually. Victor opened the curtains and saw the guard captain Gru coming.

"Gru, what happened?" Asked victor.

Gru replied, "Sir, we have entered the territory of viscount Sauron. There is a knight and a priest ahead who wants to see you?"

"Oh, Sauron's knights?" Victor narrowed his eyes and said, "who is he?"

"The knight claimed to be the brother of viscount Sauron, Baron burrows Wimbledon."
