On the wedding day, everything went smoothly, witnessed by the happy and blessing eyes of both sets of parents.
The newlyweds slowly walked towards each other, solemnly exchanged rings, and then embraced each other affectionately. At this moment, the audience burst into applause, and the cheers of the guests intertwined into a happy melody.
The wedding ceremony concluded successfully, and the grand wedding banquet began immediately. The newlyweds, their families, and the guests began to dine, and the table was filled with delicious food and fine wine.
Karen and his fiancée were filled with gratitude and sincerely thanked everyone who sent their blessings. This heartwarming interaction continued until the dinner in the evening.
During the dinner, Marquis Roderick smiled and motioned Karen and his daughter to stand up, inviting them to dance the first dance together.
To the sound of melodious music, Karen and the bride stepped lightly and gracefully, kicking off the dance party. After they finished their dance, the guests stepped onto the dance floor and danced to their heart's content.
Martin, Belin and Derry were enthusiastically invited to dance by several nobles. The atmosphere became increasingly lively, laughter and joy echoed throughout the banquet hall, and everyone was immersed in joy until late at night.
As the night deepened, the party drew to a close. With Karen and the bride's sincere thanks, the guests left one after another.
Afterwards, Karen briefly discussed the follow-up matters of the wedding with Earl White and several ladies, and then he withdrew with the tired but happy bride to rest.
Martin and the others were still in high spirits and wanted to make trouble in the bridal chamber, but just as they were about to act, they were stopped by the eldest lady.
The eldest lady said softly but firmly, "The two children have been making a fuss all day. Let them have a good rest and don't go and make trouble." After hearing this, Martin and the others were a little annoyed, but they couldn't say anything else. They could only go back to their rooms and go to bed helplessly.
When Martin woke up again, it was already the afternoon of the next day. By then, the nobles had already left one after another. Seeing that Martin was still sleeping soundly, Earl Merlin and his companions left without disturbing him.
During their stay at the Earl's Castle, Karen and his wife began to open and examine the gifts sent by the nobles. These gifts were of various kinds and values.
But in Karen's heart, the gifts from the White family were of special significance and made him happiest. The family sat together, looking at these gifts carrying blessings, laughing and talking, and the warm time passed quietly.
In the blink of an eye, the time to return home had arrived. Martin was concerned about his several mines. In his free time over the past few days, he had contacted the three families through the communication crystal, informing them that the mines were ready for handover at any time.
So, Martin did not delay any longer that day. With everyone watching, he rode his wildebeest and led Eric and others out of the castle and headed towards the exit of the Sword Oath City.
After leaving the city gate, Martin and his group rode on their horses, their horses' hooves tapping the ground lightly, and they soon returned to Luoqiu Town.
As soon as he returned to the town, Martin ordered his men to call Yoder and ask about the situation in the town these days. Yoder hurried over and reported the important events that happened in Luoqiu Town in a clear and organized manner.
The construction of the city walls and slums is still progressing step by step. With the Knights of Dawn patrolling the town, the mercenaries who usually act recklessly have now restrained themselves a lot and no longer dare to act crazy under the influence of alcohol.
However, during this period, many mercenaries who were causing trouble were arrested. The head of the mercenary guild has contacted Yoder several times, hoping that he could release these people. Yoder wanted to keep them in prison for a while, so those mercenaries are still being held in prison.
After listening to this, Martin pondered in his heart and then asked, "What kind of organization is this mercenary guild?"
Yoder replied respectfully, "Mercenary guilds are spread across the continent, just like the Magicians' Guild. They are a formidable force on this continent."
Martin paused for a moment after hearing this, then asked, "Is the head of the mercenary branch still in Luoqiu Town?"
Yoder responded, "He should still be there. He came to see me a few days ago."
Martin frowned and thought to himself that the head of this mercenary branch did not seem like a simple person who would stand up for a few ordinary mercenaries.
So he ordered Yoder, "Go and check the identities of the mercenaries we captured this time, and report the results to me before evening." After receiving the order, Yoder quickly retreated.
Martin took out the communication crystal and first contacted Betan, asking him to take the slaves to the territory of Marquis Roderick to complete the handover of the mineral vein, and then stay there to mine. If there is any emergency, report to him immediately through the communication crystal.
Then, he contacted William through the communication crystal and arranged for him to go to the territory of Earl Carlos to hand over the ore vein. The manpower was directly deployed from the Magic Copper Mine Camp, and he was specifically told to bring a high-level space ring to load the ore.
Afterwards, he assigned Billy the same task, but Billy had to go to the territory of Earl Merlin in the Middle Realm to mine. He could purchase manpower locally. Before leaving, he also had to go to the Magic Copper Mine Camp to get the high-level space ring.
After arranging all this, Martin seemed to see a lot of energy flowing towards him, and his heart was full of anticipation.
At this moment, Martin's communication crystal suddenly lit up. When he answered, he found it was Roland.
Roland told him that the talented maid that had been booked earlier had arrived and was currently in the Chamber of Commerce, and the slave owner had not left yet. If Martin was not satisfied, he could change her.
When Martin heard this, he immediately became interested and called Eric, and the two of them went to Roland's Chamber of Commerce together.
They walked along the street and saw the gate of the Chamber of Commerce from a distance.
Roland was sharp-eyed and spotted Martin at a glance. He hurriedly trotted forward and respectfully called out "loyalty".
