At noon, the snow gradually got heavier.
Brook left alone, taking nothing with him except his broken sword.
The city gate was as deserted as ever. He had been in Alicante for so long, but no one came to see him off.
When Jiang Jinshou arrived at the square, he told the group of knights that if they were willing to stay, he would arrange accommodation and work for them in the second half of their lives.
They will become permanent residents of Alicante and enjoy all the benefits of Alicante residents.
Most of the knights have grown old and have long been accustomed to a comfortable life. They don't want to go out and experience anything with Brook.
Therefore, there are still many knights willing to stay in Alicante.
However, there were also a small number of people who scoffed at what the general did. They gladly accepted the food and money distributed by the City Lord's Mansion, but they still maintained an indifferent attitude towards Jiang Jin.
A long snow fell from the sky. Jiang Jin sensed that Brook's light was gradually disappearing from the vicinity of Alicante City. The big stone in her heart finally slowly fell down.
Jiang Jin stretched out her hand and caught a crystal clear snowflake, which quickly dissipated in her palm, bringing with it a hint of refreshing coolness.
Jiang Jin wrapped herself in a cloak but didn't feel so cold anymore. Lucas stuck out his tongue to catch the snowflakes beside Jiang Jin.
"Oh! It's so cold." Lucas covered his little mouth. He had just eaten a piece of ice and felt the ice dancing in his mouth. He was so cold that he shivered and curled up in Jiang Jin's arms.
Jiang Jin was in a very good mood today because she had resolved Brooke's problem. She hugged Lucas and kissed him on the face.
Daisy beside him looked at the sky and said, "This should be the last snow of winter. Usually after this kind of weather, spring is coming soon."
"Maybe." Jiang Jin patted Lucas's little butt: "I hope spring comes soon. I can't wait to embrace the spring sunshine."
The snow never stops falling.
After lunch, Jiang Jin met with Balk and others in her own reception room.
To be precise, it was Balk and Trem.
The wounds on Trem's body had been bandaged, and he was wrapped up like a dumpling, covered in bandages, looking like a mummy.
Jiang Jin was a little amused. She couldn't help but ask Trem, "Who bandaged you like this?"
Trem scratched his head sheepishly, "Bella bandaged it for me."
"That girl Bella?"
Jiang Jinshi couldn't help but be curious, so she asked again, "Did she bandage you on her own initiative, or did you lean over and ask her to bandage you?"
Trem hadn't expected Jiang Jin to be such a gossipy city lord. Two blushes appeared on his dark face, and he said a little embarrassedly, "It was me. I asked her to bandage it for me."
After he said this, Jiang Jin's face immediately showed an expression of "as expected", which made Trem's ears blush again.
When Tellem stopped Bella, Bella was still a little reluctant, but Tellem blamed all the faults of his fall on Bella, and then coaxed Bella to help him change his body and bandage it.
"Well, Triumph, you are so mean to me that you can turn your evil intentions on my maid."
Jiang Jin glared at Trem, making him chuckle awkwardly.
Today Jiang Jin asked Trem and Brooke to come because she really wanted to ask them to do something.
In the afternoon, I reviewed today's competition with them appropriately, praising them where necessary and giving them pointers where necessary.
Finally, it was decided to discuss with others to incorporate these 24 people into the Knights Templar and divide them into two teams, one team will be directly managed by Balke, and the other team will be directly managed by Trem.
The two teams will be divided into two shifts to guard the city gate and the city lord's mansion in rotation.
This is it for now in the early stages, and we will slowly recruit people in the later stages, and then things will be easier.
The three of them chatted in the room for most of the afternoon until there was a knock on the door. Daisy walked in briskly and whispered in the general's ear, "Lord, the banquet hall has been prepared as you ordered."
Jiang Jin nodded and finally stopped talking. Balke and Balke followed her downstairs.
The banquet hall downstairs had a rare opportunity to appear. In the center of the banquet hall was a table filled with all kinds of food and roasted meat.
The long table was filled with a whole row of food, including edible things picked by the residents of Alicante from the Misty Forest, the last few pieces of meat just taken out of the ice cellar, and the roast chicken and other foods contributed by Jiang Jin!
The beans and corn in the pot were cooked together, making a sizzling sound.
The whole banquet hall was filled with heat and the smell of food.
When Trem and Bart came down, they found that the other members of their group had already taken their seats, and they swallowed madly.
Jiang Jin took the main seat and gestured for Trem and Balk to take their seats.
After the two of them officially took their seats, they were still a little overwhelmed by the table full of food.
Everyone was waiting for Jiang Jin to speak, but she suddenly tapped her chopsticks and said to everyone, "Come on, start eating. Why are you all looking at me?"
Everyone was stunned.
Everyone stared at each other, hands clasped together, and no one dared to pick up their chopsticks first. That was until Jiang Jin picked up a piece of meat and placed it in Trem's bowl, which was closest to her. She said to him, "Thank you for your hard work today. You are our great hero. Eat to your heart's content today!"
Trem was stunned. He looked up at Jiang Jin'er and his eyes suddenly lit up.
"Your Excellency the City Lord is too polite! This is what I should do!" Trem was unwilling to even say any polite words, as his mind was completely attracted by the large piece of meat.
Although there were some meat and eggs in the meals we ate during training, they were not as satisfying as eating a whole piece of meat.
Trem and his companions were all strong young men. However, their lives were very hard, and none of them had the privilege of eating meat regularly. Therefore, when it came to meat, everyone's face was filled with excitement.
Trem grabbed the meat in the bowl and started chewing it! He hadn't tasted that flavor for a long time, and this time he had to taste it to his heart's content.
Seeing that Trem had already started eating, the general knocked on his silver bowl with his silver chopsticks and gestured to everyone to start eating with a smile.
The moment Jiang Jin stopped, the entire banquet hall suddenly became lively.
