Chapter 218 Going Smoothly (Part 2)
After returning straight to the residence in Tire Town, Dean, who changed back into his clothes, walked towards Baron Tire's mansion. :///
Dean entered it unimpeded all the way, and saw Baron Tire—the baron was lowering the battle flag with his staff who had just returned from Vauban.
As the lord of the Marquis of Vauban, Baron Tire naturally needs to show his loyalty, so the presence of capable subordinates is essential, just as some merchants in Tire territory gave gifts to Baron Tire.
"Dean, do you need a plate?"
Baron Tyre invited with a smile.
And Dean just glanced at it, and immediately found that the baron had reached the end of his game on the chessboard—Battle Flag, a simplified version of the barracks sand table deduction, one of the games that nobles and knights love very much; I have studied hard in the military camp of Grand Duke Emerald.
Therefore, it has considerable strength.
However, Dean doesn't have more time to spend on this - if it is a real battle, he will do his part, and even the sand table deduction has a certain value.
However, as for Zhanqi...
It's still free.
"Lord Baron, I'm not very proficient in battle flags, and I have something to ask you to come here today!"
Dean said resignedly.
"What's the matter? Is it a matter of conscription?"
Baron Tire immediately turned serious, and at the same time, his left hand crossed the chessboard without a trace, making the chess game on it chaotic; Ikos, the staff member, shrugged his shoulders, obviously getting used to it.
"No, the matter of conscription. I can handle it completely. I want to invite you to invite a lord who is proficient in writing and counting. To teach my retainers and followers; of course, I will pay the normal price, Pay accordingly!"
After Dean waved his hand, he said with a smile.
"So that's how it is... However, as a nobleman, it is natural to have retainers and followers. How many of them have you gathered now? If there are too many people, it will be difficult to handle. The teaching of characters requires a lot of energy in the early stage. .It’s easy to count, as long as it’s not too deep, it can be used concurrently!”
Baron Tyre nodded,
Asked in detail.
"If you include Huck, there are five people in total!"
Dean said truthfully.
"Five people? If there are only five people, you only need to hire one person... I have two good recommendations here, one is my last retired tax officer, and the other is a former Lily And Dart's governess!"
Baron Till offered candidates.
"Can you introduce it in detail?"
Dean thought for a moment and asked.
"The retired tax officer is one of my relatives. He is a very good person. He served as a tax officer in Tyreland for twenty-five years. He was very reliable until he retired at the age of fifty; the other one was Yi A friend of Kos, after traveling in the four northern counties. Because Ikos served as my staff, the other party also stayed here; however, unlike Ikos, this gentleman simply likes traveling and reading, except for serving as Lily, Dart's governess, he holds no other position with me; however, lately he's been looking for work...for a living!"
Baron Till introduced it in detail.
"What is the tutor's name?"
Almost immediately, Dean made a decision.
Regarding the understanding of Baron Till's relatives, Dean would never trust the so-called reliable and retired tax official; after all, if it was really reliable, the other party's successor should not be a guy like Molde .
Compared with this one, the tutor who likes to travel, read, and is now forced by livelihood is much more reliable.
"Phosia!"
Ikos on the side recommended his friend, while Baron Tire waved his hands helplessly, apparently feeling helpless for not allowing his former tax officer to serve again.
"Young people are always more energetic than older people. What's more, the conditions in the residence of the Feichalun Knights are very difficult!"
Dean looked at Baron Till's appearance and explained with a smile.
"Look, I didn't say anything... It's just that if the Knights have any unimportant positions, please give my relatives some opportunities as much as possible. In order to live decently, they are actually working very hard!"
Baron Till was speaking to Dean, once again reflecting the other side's good-natured side.
"certainly!"
Dean answered bluntly, but he was in denial in his heart.
"That's good!"
Baron Till laughed happily.
"Then, I will take Phocia to the Knights' residence tomorrow!"
"Okay, I will wait for the other party's arrival!"
After striking the specific time with Ikos, Dean stood up and said goodbye; Baron Tyre, who knew that the Knights of Feichalan had been busy recently, did not stop him, but sent Dean to the door.
After waving goodbye to Baron Tire again, Dean walked quickly towards the gate of the town; according to his estimation, Siren should have completed what he ordered.
And in fact it is.
Siren was waiting for Dean with two recruits—
"Leader, everyone promises that in three days, the things will be sent to the Knights' station!"
Siren said with a smile.
"Very good! Back to the station!"
Dean nodded, led his subordinates, greeted the guards at the gate of the town, and walked towards the station of the Fei Chalun Knights under the respectful escort of the other party.
...
Just before night fell, Huck knocked on the door and walked into Dean's room——
"Captain, the quota of 150 people has been fully recruited, but there are less than 20 young people who can become regular team members... The next step is to step up training to be useful; however, there are still four years before the ice and snow melt. A month or so should be enough for us!"
Sitting in front of Dean, the deputy head began to report.
"Well... four months is a bit long! Three months, I need three months to make these young people look good!"
Dean shook his head and cut the time short.
"Three months. It's a bit urgent. It's easy to cause unnecessary damage to young people!"
Huck frowned.
"I provide enough medicine and food here!"
Dean assured.
"If that's the case. I'll let these young people stay in the playground when they don't sleep!"
Huck laughed. He never doubted Dean's promise.
"Then, I'll wait and see; by the way... I've found a teacher for you, Siren, Ike, Chad, and Maher: Phocia!"
Dean mentioned the governess thing.
"Mr. Phocia?"
Huck was evidently no stranger to the governess.
"Well, starting tomorrow, he will be your teacher, teaching you how to read and count—don't refuse. Huck; although you can count and know some words, it's not enough... don't you Have you forgotten the criteria for becoming a knight? Even if you escape now, you will still be unable to dodge when the time comes!"
Dean said this, and then, seeing Huck's appearance of wanting to evade, he couldn't help but become serious.
"But, my lord, I, I..."
Huck became hesitant.
"Are you worried about the baptism potion? Or...are you worried about yourself?"
Dean looked at Huck's face. I knew what was going on, and pointed it out straight.
Follower of Dean. If Huck performed the 'Knight Baptism' in other ways or on the recommendation of others, instead of the Dean family's way, once word got out, Dean would definitely become the laughing stock of the entire emerald high society.
Therefore, the 'baptism potion' is essential for a family.
Even, at some point, it is regarded as inheritance.
As for Dean's performance, Huck was not worried about the potion of 'Knight's Baptism', what he was worried about was himself, and he was afraid of another failure.
"Don't worry, you can definitely succeed! These are not words to comfort you, but facts... In addition to the effectiveness of my family's potions to increase the success rate, there are also some methods of identification that have been passed down—and in In this way, you are qualified!"
Dean looked at Huck and said seriously.
"T-really?"
Even if he trusted Dean again, Huck's voice trembled a little at this time.
"When have I ever lied to you!"
With a hint of a smile, Dean looked at Huck.
"My lord, for your kindness, I..."
As he spoke, Huck stood up with a very solemn expression, then knelt down on one knee and said, "Your order will be my mission, and the point of your sword will be where I charge!"
Huck uttered his oath, which was similar to that of his followers, but more powerful.
"Tomorrow will be a brand new beginning!"
Dean patted Huck on the shoulder and said this.
On the table not far away, the potion in the flask was slowly changing color, gradually depositing, and becoming transparent——the senior knight's "baptism potion" that Dean remembered in his mind had entered the final step.
...
At night, Dean continued to practice [Misty Shadow Calling Technique].
That kind of warm feeling made Dean able to clearly confirm that [Misty Shadow Breathing Technique] will soon be recognized by the system, just in the last day or two.
"The [Misty Shadow Calling Technique] is special, allowing me to reach the limit level of my level in a short time; but...it's a pity that it's incomplete!"
Thinking of the incompleteness of the [Misty Shadow Call Technique], Dean couldn't help but frowned.
However, soon, the sound of footsteps outside the door made him restrain the emotion on his face.
Boom, boom!
"Dean, can I come in?"
Outside the door, the helpless voice of the baron's staff rang out.
"Come in!"
Surprised that the other party came so early, Dean immediately opened the door and looked at the other party and a man behind him.
