Chapter 810 The Dwarf Arrives!
Finally, Gervis finished washing up with the help of Lolita.
Although this girl was clumsy in serving people, her strong physique gave Gervis a different kind of experience.
For example, when Lolita was helping him put on his clothes, she couldn't help but bend down slightly, and Gervis just lowered his head and could see a beautiful scenery...
Normally, it only takes seven or eight minutes to get up, but with Lolita's service, it took more than twice as long.
"Okay! Gervis, do you think you are satisfied?"
After finishing dressing and washing, Lolita brought Gervis to the mirror. She clapped her hands contentedly and smiled happily at Gervis, obviously feeling a great sense of accomplishment.
"Can!"
After making sure that the holes on the clothes were buttoned correctly, Gervis nodded to Lolita.
It was just about putting on clothes and holding a washbasin. Gervis naturally had nothing to complain about. The most important thing was that having Lolita serve him could increase blood circulation.
"Let's go have breakfast!"
Gervis immediately called out and took Lolita out of the bedroom.
"Okay! Gervis!"
Lolita immediately followed happily, and before going out, she did not forget to adjust her collar, with a bright look in her beautiful eyes.
…
When the two arrived at the restaurant, they sat down and started eating.
After a while, two more people came into the restaurant.
"Caroline! Have you eaten?"
"Sister Caroline! Good morning!"
The visitors were Caroline and the maid Anna.
There was a hint of displeasure in Caroline's eyes, while the maid Anna stood behind Caroline pitifully.
"I already ate, Gervase!"
Caroline responded to Gervis gently, then walked to Gervis' side and sat down.
"Ms. Lolita, good morning to you too!"
After sitting down, Caroline looked at Lolita.
At this time, Lolita was sitting next to Gervis, but the seat was a little empty. Normally, most guests would sit opposite the host.
"Ms. Lolita, I heard that you were the one who helped Gervis get up this morning!"
It turned out that the maid Anna was standing at the door of Gervis' bedroom early in the morning, waiting for Gervis to wake up so that she could help him get up and wash.
But unexpectedly, while waiting, Lolita came up and proposed that she should replace the maid Anna to do this job.
At first, the little maid Anna naturally didn't dare to give in.
But Lolita said that she might become Gervis' wife in the future, so she had to practice in advance.
In the end, Anna didn't dare to insist and left. After leaving, the maid Anna naturally went to find Caroline.
Anna, the personal maid, naturally knows best about the relationship between Caroline and Gervis.
When Caroline found out, she immediately felt threatened by Lolita, and also felt sorry for the maid Anna, so she rushed over.
"Yes, Sister Caroline, you see I didn't mess it up!"
When Lolita heard Corolla's questioning, she didn't make any excuses and admitted it generously with a smile on her face.
At the same time, he looked like, look, my serving skills are also very good.
Caroline was naturally annoyed when she saw this, but with Gervis around, she couldn't act rashly.
I could only speak in a normal tone.
"Ms. Lolita, you are the eldest daughter of the Holy Company and you are a guest in Saint Ann City. We cannot let you do such a thing!"
"Otherwise, if it gets out, it will be bad for Miss Lolita's reputation, and they will also say that we don't know how to entertain guests!"
"Besides, Anna has been Gervis's personal maid since the beginning, so she is more familiar with serving Gervis!"
Caroline's words made clear what happened this morning and also made Lolita understand the identity of her guest.
After saying that, Caroline asked Gervis one last question.
"Grevith, don't you think so?"
"Well, Caroline is right! Lolita, you are the eldest daughter of the Sacred Trading Company, you really can't do these things!"
"Besides, it's enough to have Anna serving me! Let Anna do it from now on!"
Gervis was also confused, even though Lolita's service was more "exciting".
However, Gervis would rather she keep quiet. After all, Caroline has no official status yet and must be particularly sensitive about this aspect. He doesn't want to hurt Caroline's feelings.
"Oh! I get it, Gervase, Sister Caroline!"
Lolita had no intention of refutation. After listening to it, she just lowered her head and said "oh".
She seemed even more aggrieved than the maid Anna.
Seeing this, Caroline didn't know what to say, and the matter came to an end.
Then she turned her face back and looked at Gervis sweetly.
"Gervis, is my necklace beautiful?"
As she spoke, she raised her hand and pointed to the crystal clear gem necklace on her snow-white neck.
This necklace was naturally given by Gervis. Although it was just an ordinary necklace worth a few hundred gold coins, the thought was the most important.
"Well, of course it's beautiful!"
How can you say that the gift you bought yourself is not beautiful?
And it looks really beautiful on Caroline's slender neck and snow-white skin.
"Thank you, Gervis! And I've already sent Alice's copy!"
"OK!"
Gervis bought three gifts in total this time, and Adela's is on the way!
The remaining two naturally belonged to Caroline and Alice.
Originally, Gervis was going to deliver the gift in person, but thinking that Lolita was following him, Gervis decided to wait a few days before going, so he asked someone to deliver the gift first.
Otherwise, it would definitely not be possible to bring Lolita to see Alice.
But leaving Lolita alone in St. Ann's City, Gervis was worried that she would cause trouble.
"Your Majesty, Lord Gust wants to see you. He said a group of strange people came from outside the city!"
Just when the restaurant was filled with a warm atmosphere, Ike came to the door of the restaurant and reported to Gervis.
"Strange people?"
Gervis was a little confused, but the next moment he suddenly remembered something and stood up immediately.
"Caroline, Lolita, you stay here, I'm going to be busy now!"
After saying that, Gervis didn't even eat breakfast, and walked out of the restaurant with a piece of bread.
When we arrived at the temple, Gust was already waiting there.
"Your Majesty!"
"Well, Gust, where are those people!"
"Your Majesty, they are still outside the city gate. Although there are not many of them, most of them are golden knights, so I dare not let them in!"
"They are all very short and they said they are here to see you!"
Gust immediately informed Gervis of the details! "Haha! They are finally here! Let's go to the city gate and take a look!"
As soon as Gervis heard it, he confirmed his idea. He gave an order immediately and then led Gust and others quickly towards the city gate.
…
"Quilard, why is the gate of Saint Ann City closed? Do you think we can still make money here?"
In theory, no matter which city the dwarves go to, it should be easy for them to make a living, after all, the demand for weapons and equipment in this world is very huge.
But when the group of dwarves arrived at the city of Saint Ann, they were a little nervous.
Because the main gate of Saint Ann City was closed, no adventurers or civilians came in or out. This was different from the cities they had seen on the road.
If there are not many people in the city, even if they are very skilled, without customers, who will they forge ironware for, and how can they make money? "It should be no problem. I heard that Lord Gervis is very wealthy. Have you seen the soldiers on the city wall? I bet there is no crystal ore in their armor!"
"So, maybe Lord Gervis will ask us to help forge armor for the soldiers!"
Quillard, however, was not worried. Instead, he spoke to comfort his other companions.
"That's true. The armors worn by the soldiers in Saint Bridge Castle are not forged with crystal ore! Lord Gervis will definitely make some."
After hearing what Quillard said, everyone finally calmed down.
"The gate is open!"
At this time, several dwarves suddenly saw the gate of Saint Ann City in front of them slowly open.
When the gate was fully opened, the one leading the way was the Lord of Gervis whom they had been waiting for.
"Lord Gervis!"
"Lord Gervis!"
When several dwarves saw Gervis, they immediately stepped forward to greet him as if they had seen a benefactor! "So you are a friend of the dwarves! I just heard the report from my subordinates, and I was wondering who came to Saint Ann City!"
Gervis also quickly pretended to be surprised and stepped forward to greet Quillard and others.
"Lord Gervis, ever since we drank your Hellfire Wine, we've loved it!"
"I heard you have Hellfire Wine for sale here?"
Quillard and the others came from afar, and what they were most concerned about was naturally the Hellfire Wine, so they asked Gervis for confirmation as soon as they met.
"Haha! You are the blacksmith Quillard!"
Gervis didn't know the other dwarf blacksmiths, but he remembered this Quirad.
"Quillard, you guys have come to the right place! Although the quantity of this Hellfire Wine is not large, as long as you come to Saint Ann City, I will supply enough and ensure the sales in Saint Ann City first!"
Seeing that each of the dwarves had an expectant look on their faces, Gervis readily gave them a positive answer.
As for the small amount of Hellfire Wine, it was naturally because Gervis had kept some back.
He was not planning to make money from Hellfire Wine for the time being, but wanted to use it to win over the dwarves.
Therefore, only by making the Hellfire Wine more precious can the dwarves be willing to stay in Saint Ann.
Naturally, Gervis learned this from hunger marketing in his previous life.
No matter what new products they have, even if the warehouse is piled high with goods, they will pretend that they are out of stock so that you cannot buy them even if you have money.
Otherwise, if a large number of them come out all at once, people will mistake them for ordinary goods.
"That's great! Lord Gervis, we came to Saint Ann City just for the Hellfire Wine!"
Sure enough, when they heard that there was not much Hellfire Wine, but Gervis would supply them with enough, the last bit of worry of the dwarves was finally put to rest.
"hehe!"
Gervis looked at their carriages, each of which was filled to the brim, and in his heart he had already eaten them all up.
However, in order to allow several people to forge iron more safely in Saint Ann City, Gervis spoke again.
"We in Saint Ann City welcome our dwarven friends to come here, especially if they stay here and open a blacksmith shop."
"For this reason, I guarantee here that as long as a dwarf opens a blacksmith shop in the city, each blacksmith shop can receive two pots of Hellfire Wine from me every week, completely free of charge!"
"This... Lord Gervis is so generous! I have decided to stay in Saint Ann City and open a blacksmith shop!"
"Me too, thank you Lord Gervis for your generosity!"
Two pots of wine a week may sound a little bit low, but if you think about the drinking capacity of these dwarves, two pots of Hellfire Wine is the limit of their drinking capacity at one time . Last time in the City of Hope, it was for a competition, in order to win, so they drank two pots and fell down.
On weekdays, half a pot a day is definitely enough for them. This way they won’t get drunk but can still enjoy their drink.
Therefore, as long as you drink according to your normal drinking capacity, two pots of wine can last you a week.
They don't have to worry about the blacksmith shop not doing well in St. Ann's City and not being able to buy wine.
It can be said that Gervis's gift of two free jugs of wine was exactly what the dwarves wanted.
"Very good! Saint Ann City welcomes our dwarven friends, Gervis, to open a blacksmith shop. I promise to provide you with at least 3,000 sets of weapons and armor for you to forge!"
Gervis immediately laughed heartily, he felt that this group of dwarves were truly in his hands.
"Thank you, Lord Gervis!"
When they heard about the three thousand sets of armor, the dwarves' eyes lit up immediately. They originally thought that they couldn't have their cake and eat it too.
But now I really have it. I can make money and drink free Hellfire wine. It's like having the best of both worlds.
"Well, my dwarf friends must have had a hard time coming all the way here. Let's go into the city first! I'll have my subordinates arrange accommodation for you!"
"After you have rested, I will treat all of you friends who have come from afar to enjoy delicious food and fine wine in the evening!"
"Thank you, Lord Gervis..."
The group of dwarves were coaxed into entering the city by Gervis, and the most common words they said along the way were to thank the Lord of Gervis...
After handing over the dwarves to Vivian and Nathan who had just received the notice, Gervis returned directly to the temple.
"Your Majesty!"
Just as Gervis reached the gate of the temple, he saw Bard, the captain of his Warcraft squadron, waiting for him.
"What's up, Bud?"
"Your Majesty, we were just training freely in the west of the city when a few mounts suddenly started digging holes. As they were digging, they ran underground! I dare not delay, so I came to report to Your Majesty immediately!"
Bud immediately reported the reason.
"Hmm? Digging a hole?"
Gervis was also stunned. Lava monitors can indeed dig holes, but it is rare to start digging for no reason.
"Come on, take me to see it now!"
After all, a few lava lizards were his younger brothers, and there were not many of them, so Gervis immediately prepared to go over and investigate.
