Chapter 184 Chapter 185 Finding Trouble
"Do you have any monster meat today? I'm not talking about the Snow Rabbit!"
Fatty Pat seemed to be accustomed to the scene outside the room and did not feel strange at all. After sitting down, he did not even look outside the room, but started ordering food directly.
"Sir, we have some. The store just received a flame rabbit today, and we still have 10 pounds left to sell. How many pounds would you like?"
"Haha, Baron Gervis, we are lucky!"
Upon hearing the name of Flame Rabbit, Pat's eyes suddenly lit up, and he laughed happily and said something to Gervis, then continued to speak to the maid.
"Give me five pounds of flame rabbit meat, three pounds for roasting, and the other two pounds for making soup!"
The fire rabbit is a magical beast that lives on the grassland. It is not very big, weighing only about 50 kilograms when it is an adult. It can spit out fireballs as big as a bowl from its mouth. It is also a low-level magical beast, and one of the relatively numerous low-level magical beasts.
"Just two or three more special dishes will be enough. Go down and ask the cook to prepare them quickly. We just arrived at Winterfell today, but we haven't had a decent lunch for several days!"
"Yes, please wait a moment, my lords!"
The maid in charge of taking orders bowed respectfully before leaving. The other maid stood on the left side of the door, ready to serve Gervis and the other man at any time.
"Baron Gervis, we are in for a treat today. We actually have other monster meat. Although it is a bit expensive, it is rare. Even if it is 1 gold coin per pound, this monster meat is the real reason why people come to the Snowy Manor."
"Pat, why does this restaurant have an auction room? What do they usually auction?
Hearing that the Flame Rabbit Monster meat could be sold for 1 gold coin per pound, Gervis was a little shocked, but he was just here to eat and didn't comment. Instead, he was more interested in the auction. Gervis hadn't prepared Alice's birthday present yet, so when he heard that there was an auction here, he immediately started thinking about whether he could buy something suitable as a gift for Alice.
Even though that woman had just gotten mad at me, since I was invited here, I had to give her a gift. I'm not a stingy person.
"This manor holds an auction every month and is very well-known in the aristocratic circle. I just saw that there are more people outside than usual, so I guess it's held today, so I asked casually. I didn't expect it to be true."
Pat was quite excited today. When he heard Gervis' question, he turned to look at the auction house outside the private room, and then explained the details of the manor auction to Gervis.
"But the items for auction are varied. You won't know until you see the list later. Enhanced weapons, elf bugs, secret manuals and so on are often available. Sometimes there are even more precious items, but the prices are not low. If Baron Gervis is interested, you can take a look later."
"I see!"
Gervis nodded. It seemed that this auction was also a top-notch one. Even the Elf Bug Secret Manual would be auctioned, and the transactions would easily involve dozens or even hundreds of gold coins. He only had thirty gold coins in his pocket, which was really not enough.
After listening to the explanation, Gervis stood up and walked to the fence, looking around. He could vaguely see that there were people eating in the private rooms in the nearby row, and there were already quite a few people sitting in the auction hall downstairs, probably waiting for the auction to start.
"Baron Gervis, come and have a drink, I can't wait!"
Seeing Gervis stand up and walk to the fence, Pat picked up the wine jug he had just brought in and poured a glass of wine for himself and Gervis himself.
This wine was exactly the wine that Gervis brought when he came out. The golden wine was currently owned exclusively by Gervis, and drinking beer was not as comfortable as drinking wine. Gervis was not stingy and directly took out a pot.
…
"Sir, you can't go in. There are guests inside!"
"We have some things to discuss with the guests inside. Don't worry, we won't cause any trouble!"
Just as Gervis was about to return to his seat, the voice of a maid suddenly came from outside the door, and then the door of Gervis' room was opened.
"My lord, I'm sorry, these lords are about to come in, and I can't stop them!"
As the door opened, three young men walked in, each dressed in gorgeous clothes.
After these people came in, they glanced at Gervis and Pat, and the young man walking in front nodded slightly to the two of them, then said: "You two, I'm sorry to bother you!
"You go down first!"
Seeing this scene, Gervis and Pat did not respond, but just frowned. However, Pat was the host today, so he spoke first to the maid.
"Yes, sir!" The maid breathed a sigh of relief, immediately walked out of the private room, and ran upstairs.
"Let me introduce myself first. My name is Carl Bridger. My father is Luo Er Bridger, the Grand Commander of the Order of the Rose. I am hosting a banquet for my friends here today. However, I heard that you two have ordered 5 kilograms of monster meat. I have an unwelcome request. I hope that your friends can give me the 5 kilograms of monster meat. I will be very grateful to you two!"
Pat and Gervis ignored Carl, but Carl was not angry either. He still said his name with a smile, and when he said his father's name, he emphasized the three words "Commander-in-Chief".
"I'm sorry, my friend and I have already reserved the monster meat and we are not planning to transfer it!"
Pat is a noble baron after all. Although Karl is the son of the Grand Commander of the Order of the Rose, Karl himself does not have a title. It was agreed that he would treat Gervis to dinner today. If he is frightened by a few words, how can he hold his head up in the future?
Hearing that Pat had no room for negotiation and that even mentioning his father's name was useless, Kevin's face suddenly turned gloomy.
Ever since the old earl disappeared, his father has been the most powerful man in the entire Jones County. He is a peak silver knight and the commander-in-chief of the Order of the Rose. It can be said that he is second to none in Winterfell and is respected wherever he goes. Carl could have done whatever he wanted, but he didn't expect to be humiliated here.
"So you two are not willing to help me with this little favor? I wonder if you two have your names? I will definitely visit you if I have the chance in the future!"
Gervis never expected that he would encounter this commonplace plot on his first day in Winter City. These brainless young masters were rampant and their targets today were him and Pat. Should he wait for these brainless young masters to make a scene before he revealed his identity and slapped them in the face?
Of course not. Gervis was not planning to act cool and then get slapped in the face. After all, he was relying on Alice's name to act cool and then get slapped in the face. To be honest, Gervis was a little embarrassed. So he took two steps forward and stated his identity. He just wanted to get rid of these garbage as soon as possible so as not to affect his mood for eating.
"You want to know our names? My name is Gervis Gale, Alice's husband. It's easy for you to find me. I've been in Rose Castle these days!"
When Gervis finished speaking, the room instantly became quiet, including Karl's originally arrogant expression, which became unpredictable.
"Oh, you are so shameless, you are just lucky to be chosen by Alice to be the husband of the Earl, otherwise you would be nothing!"
But just when Carl was shocked by Gervis's reputation and was about to retreat, a mocking remark suddenly came from outside the door.
Then, three people, two men and one woman, walked in from outside the door.
