Dragon and knight Ji gl

After Leff told a group of six trainee knights about her experience in doing the task, she released this task to them.

Naturally, it costs a lot of money to issue a mission. After a year of work, Leif, a knight, will soon go to the test of the Templars.Usually, knights who have reached her level have spent several years, ten years, or even decades on missions and accumulated considerable wealth.And after becoming a Templar, every year? Can? Get a lot of tax money from the fief.

But for Leif, lack of money is a big problem.If you use the gems that Natia Vida gave her, this problem can naturally be solved, but Lev dare not, so you can only use the Gesha coins obtained from the previous mission.The big missions she took on before were very difficult, and the honors she received were not low, but in terms of money, it was not that impressive, and the amount was small.As for the small tasks to do along the way, on the premise of not affecting the journey, there is no room for choice, so the rewards are even less.The fiefdoms of other Templar Knights can give them taxes, but she has not had time to collect taxes from the fiefdoms, so she needs to pay a lot of money back. Reclaiming wasteland and building an uninhabited island is not an easy task.

Lord Deborah has considered things like a god in everything else, and she has been considerate in every way, but perhaps it has been a long time since she has been out of the world, except that she has not considered the difficulty of her lack of money.

But asking the knight to send the half-man, half-beast to White Island, this money has to be spent.Leif is going to go to the polar ice field soon, so it is impossible to personally escort the half-human and half-beast.And appointing someone other than the knight to do this escort mission, there will probably be accidents.

"Are you sure that I only need to bear the cost of board and lodging?" Leif handed the six black medals to the knight instructor.

"Yes, originally this group of children was going to the east coast for trainee tours, and they would be very happy to do you a favor by the way." The knight instructor's name is Gavin Gregory? A gentle old man, the abdomen under the thick winter clothes? Slightly protruding? Slightly bloated, but still looks quite powerful.Leif heard that he was once a Templar, well-informed, completed many thrilling missions, and has a glamorous resume, but after a certain mission, he lost interest in adventure and honor, so he gave up the fiefdom and Templar Knight? Turned to assume the position of instructor at the Knight Academy.

The tasks that need to be faced after becoming a Templar are much more dangerous than those of a formal knight.Therefore, some knights are not willing to participate in the assessment of the Templar Knights at all, or try to give up this identity after being a Templar Knight for a period of time.According to Gavin, there are quite a few peers who made the same choice as him.

This time? It was Gavin who was going to travel with six apprentice knights.

A knight in a knight academy is like an apprentice in a craft trade, and the asking price during the apprenticeship period is quite low.Although Leif did choose the target of the mission based on the principle of high quality and low price, but her mental budget is not too big for six trainee knights, especially a former Templar knight, to escort them for a long distance. Low.Leff thought that the price would be low, but she didn't expect it to be so low that she felt a little embarrassed?

"I almost forgot, Your Excellency... Oh, I'll call you Lev. You haven't been an apprentice at the Knight Academy, so it's no wonder you don't know," Gavin put his hands behind his back and stretched out "These children have allowances during their apprenticeships, which are directly distributed by the temple. So you don't have to feel sorry, they are very satisfied with their current income, and you don't need to face this task." How dangerous is it?"

"I think this? The price is still a bit unreasonable, even if I give some bonuses to the juniors outside of the mission." Leif lives in a tight way, but doesn't want to take advantage of others.Twelve half-human and half-beasts need to hide their identities, and if something happens to her, special care must be taken, and she needs Gavin to do her a favor later, all these will bring extra trouble, I am afraid Gavin is For the sake of Hughes, it is not good to ask her to raise the price. He can not mention it, but she has to say, "Please accept it."

Gavin didn't refuse any more, stroked his beard and nodded, smiling deeper.After hearing this, the six trainee knights cheered for a while.

--

The half-humans and half-beasts changed their attire. They were no longer rough sewn robes, but winter clothes that Leif bought for them in a tailor shop.The hat is thick and wide, the face is tightly covered, and the sleeves can cover the hands. There are quite a few people who wear this kind of dress in winter, so it is not a problem for them to walk on the road wearing this kind of attire. people pay attention.

The true identities of these half-human and half-beasts were revealed to Gavin by Leif.After all, Gavin was a Templar, and he had seen many strange creatures. Even if Leff didn't say anything, he had guessed something, so he didn't make a fuss about it.Moreover, he is peaceful. Even Miss Niu, who was very sensitive to eyes after knowing his true identity, did not show any offended expression after meeting Gavin. After learning that Gavin would be with them After the road, she also talked to him for a while.

And the rest of the trainee knights also saw the appearance of half-human and half-beast. Although they were a little muttering, it was better than concealing them at the beginning and making trouble when they were accidentally exposed halfway.

The knight instructor and six apprentice knights rode horses, while twelve half-human and half-beasts rented two large carriages.

Leff stood for a while, walked towards Minnie who was selling goods at an empty stall by the side of the road, bent down? muttered a few words.Mai Ni showed a look of surprise, and happily dug through the buttons in the cloth bag she carried, and then took out a small black bottle.Mai Ni gestured out a price with her hands, and Leff bargained with her.Minnie shook her head.Leif made a gesture to leave.Mai Ni called her to stop.The deal is done.

After buying such things, Leif didn't stop, but went into several more shops.

Miss Yang pulled her collar and hat unaccustomedly, and was about to get into the car when she heard Laifu calling her.

Leif held something in his hand, covered it with a white cloth, and under the white cloth, there was something? It was arching, making a childish cry.

"This? This is..." Miss Yang stretched out her hand cautiously, opened the white cloth, saw a small white and soft ball, put her fists on her chin with both hands, jumped back in surprise, and called out. With a sound of "Yeah", he twisted his waist and moved back to Leif, lowered his head and took a closer look.

The whole body of the newly weaned lamb is snow-white, without any stray hairs, its soft ears are playfully moving, its eyes are moist and pure, and it timidly raises its head: "Baa...baa..."

"It's not for me, is it?" Seeing Leif nodded, Miss Yang touched the lamb's head with trembling hands, took it with her uninjured hand and held it in her arms, "Thank you very much You're welcome, Leif. You're the nicest person, despite your ugly hair."

Leif forced a smile.

On the carriage, Miss Niu snorted coldly.Unlike Ms. Yang, Ms. Niu always finds it unbearable to deal with human beings, cattle, sheep and horses after learning her true identity.Human beings are not judged, and unintelligent animals are not insulted.They are the only ones on the fringes. Since neither side is willing to accept them as a company, it is embarrassing to involve them more. Among humans, she can only recognize a few people such as Leif and Gavin. As for livestock... forget it.I really don't understand why Miss Yang likes lambs. Ming? Ming? already knows that they are not of the same kind.

"Is this ours?" The minion monsters in the car heard the sound, and they were also a little worried about the long journey ahead, but after learning that there would be a little lamb for company, their faces seemed sad. It faded a little.

Miss Yang leaned over and put the little lamb on the ground.The little lamb stretched out its four thin legs, surrounded by a group of tall and eccentric people who were tightly wrapped up, shrouded in shadows?, its tail retracted, and fell to the ground.

"Don't scare it." Miss Niu dragged her injured leg, squeezed away the half-human, half-beast, and hugged the little lamb.The little lamb raised its neck and chewed on her mask. After Miss Niu blocked it a few times to no avail, she followed it.

"Hey, who doesn't like cute little sheep?" The young and fragile creatures have a certain soothing effect. Looking at the little lamb in Miss Niu's arms, Leif felt soft in his heart.She thought of the sheep she had taken care of, thought of the first lamb that belonged to her, and missed her dream of making a fortune from big sheep to give birth to lambs, especially when she was far away from making a fortune. Right now, she actually had the idea of ​​going back to raise sheep.

"Please." After the half-humans and half-beasts got into the car, Leif handed over a bag of Gesha coins to Gavin.The fee for assigning tasks has been paid, and these coins will be used to buy materials for land reclamation, tools for building houses, etc.In addition, she also needs Gavin to help her find a few trustworthy human stewards.

Similar to a small country, a fief also needs to set up a bureaucratic system to manage it.Her White Island is not a fiefdom that has been in operation for many years? It is an uninhabited island, and everything must start with infrastructure.Internal management positions can be promoted from half-human and half-animals, but in the current situation where Baidao cannot be self-sufficient, in order to obtain enough supplies, it is inevitable to deal with humans frequently, so human management is necessary .

"Of course, I remember that there are some old friends of mine near Baidao, and they will be happy to help you." Gavin said with a smile, "It's very thoughtful. For someone of your age Humanly speaking, it's surprising."

"Oh, by the way, there's another one." Lev reluctantly looked away from the bag of Gesha coins, put her finger on the slightly trembling dragon egg and patted it soothingly a few times, Then he took out the black vial she bought from Mai Ni, "If it's necessary."

"What? What??" Gavin said. After listening to Leif's explanation, he nodded repeatedly and praised, "You're right, I didn't even think of this at all."

Watching the knights leave, the smile on Leif's face couldn't hold back anymore, his eyes went dark, and he almost couldn't stand still.

"Miss Knight, what's wrong with you?" Natia Vida frowned worriedly.

"I..." Leif grimaced, "...I have no money." She used all the Gesha coins she saved from previous missions on Baidao and the half-human half-beast body, [-]% of which Spent on the little black vial I bought from Minnie.Although she knows that this is a necessary investment in the early stage, and when Bai Dao is on the right track, it will bring her a lot of benefits, but she is indeed penniless now, not even the gold in the dragon egg cloth pocket. Gesha coins were also taken away by her.The coins that left were like blood being drawn from her veins, making her truly feel dizzy.

"It's strange, Ming? Ming? Miss Knight will not spend money in other places except for spending it on pretty girls she doesn't know." Natia Vida narrowed her eyes , "The gems I gave you, are you running out soon?"

"I haven't used those gems yet." Leif shook his head, "You said before that, except for the...spouse, you have to charge a high interest rate. I dare not use it."

Natia Vida restrained her smile, and seemed a little unhappy: "You have to understand, if you treat it as a loan from me, even if you don't use it, it will still generate interest. Interest, I'm afraid you have to do a year's worth of tasks continuously to make up for it."

"Is that so?" Leff felt that the blood on her body seemed to be a little less. Not only did she have no money, but she also owed a debt that was not cleared.Calculated on the basis of five cents per month, excluding the revolving interest part, the daily increase in interest is one six percent of the principal.And [-] It's really flattering her that she can be up to her task.

"Miss Knight, can't you just treat it as a gift from me?" Seeing that Lev didn't respond, and even fainted from fright, Natia Vida sighed softly, rubbed her head and coaxed, " Safekeeping, the knight is keeping it for me. You only need to pay interest if you spend it, and you don’t need to pay interest if you don’t spend it. They’re all big island owners? Is Miss Knight still afraid of being poor? And the Ge you got in this mission? There will be no shortage of sand coins."

"I almost forgot, I always ask you to give me presents." Leff regained his strength a bit, and took out a small jar, "I bought this for you from Minnie with the last bit of money I had. "

"What? What is this?" Natia Vida took it, lifted the lid, and looked suspiciously at the transparent ointment inside.

"It's for postpartum use." Leif said seriously.
