Sinke had a bitter face as he looked at the food in front of him. In the past, he loved to eat salted at and would excitedly eat it whenever he had the chance. However, after eating the food in the cafeteria, he expressed that he had never eaten such nasty food before. How are these knights even able to eat these things?
“Sir Knight, are these at not to your liking?” A North Wind City knight asked, curious. Even they wouldn’t be able to eat such at every day.
“I already ate before I ca here,” Sinke said, forcing a smile as he looked at the knights in front of him who were practically fighting for food.
The corner of his mouth twitched. Is this what a noble’s banquet is like? And these are what knights are like? Very disappointing.
Sinke did not consider himself to be a knight, even if others called him that. He considered himself to simply be a soldier who worked for Liu Feng, albeit a special one. He felt that he was much better than these so-called knights.
Sinke had aspired to be a knight in the past- but the things that had happened in the past few days along with the knights in front of him completely shattered his dream and desire to beco a knight. He saw the reality before him- even knights had to fight for at.
“Then that’s a real pity. Let tell you, these ats were made by the best chef in North Wind City. Lord City Lord only rewards us with these during major holidays. We’re only able to eat these ats today because of you knights from West Sun City and Lord Liu Feng.”
“Yeah, eat a bit more; the banquet inside won’t end anyti soon. Enjoy the at and wheat wine.”
The North Wind City knights that sat at the sa table as Sinke were very hospitable and tried to convince Sinke to eat more. Well, they didn’t slow down at all while talking and kept stuffing at into their mouths.
“No, it’s good. I can’t drink while on duty,” Sinke said, shaking his head. Drinking wasn’t allowed during missions or when on duty, and that was a restriction that no one dared to violate.
“What duty? It’s banquet ti,” a knight asked, confused.
Sinke smiled faintly. The duty he was referring to was assuring Liu Feng’s safety. He only had free ti when he was back at the military camp or on vacation.
“Do you really not want to eat? These ats had been marinated for 3 hours- they’re very flavorful,” a knight said while holding a piece of at in one had and a hard wheat bread in the other hand.
“You guys eat. I’ve already eaten before I ca here,” Sinke said, secretly rubbing his empty stomach. He would rather go back and eat so dried food instead of these salted ats.
Tap. Tap. Tap.
Hearing the sound of footsteps, Sinke knew that soone had co out of the inner hall. He could tell that they were Liu Feng’s footsteps just by hearing them. Under the surprised eyes of the knights that sat at the sa table as him, Sinke imdiately got up, walked next to the door of the inner hall, and stood straight with his hands on the side of his thighs.
Sure enough, just like Sinke had expected, Liu Feng walked out of the inner hall, followed by Mina, along with so of the young noblewon seeing him off.
Liu Feng imdiately saw Sinke after exiting the inner hall. Looking at the food on the tables, he could already guess what had happened, and he gently tapped on Sinke’s shoulder.
“Let’s go. It’s quite late,” Liu Fend said, walking outside, with Mina following him.
“Yes!” Sinke imdiately blocked the young noblewon and followed behind Liu Feng. He ignored their grudgeful gazes, determined to not let anyone near Liu Feng.
As they walked out of the City Lord’s Mansion, the War Wolf Squad erged from the shadows and imdiately surrounded Liu Feng and Mina. Liu Feng refused the carriage ride offered to him and walked towards the dock, ignoring the cute, pleading eyes of the young noblewon.
After getting quite a distance away from the City Lord’s Mansion, Mina asked in a small voice, “Young Master, what’s that milk tea?”
“Made from goat’s milk,” Liu Feng said, smiling mysteriously. He was referring to the thod of making milk powder on Earth, though he will add so tea powder and sugar.
West Sun City didn’t have a lot of sheep, but there were still enough sheep to produce around 10 kilograms of milk powder a month. Since he was able to sell a kilogram of milk powder for 40 silver coins, he would be able to make one gold coin just by selling 2.5 kilograms of it.
In the future, when large farms get established in West Sun City, it would be another extrely profitable business. Liu Feng couldn’t help but think about how much money West Sun City would be making in the future.
However, Liu Feng soon thought of all the equipnt and infrastructure that he would have to pay for- they were all going to cost a lot of money, so he had to invest his gold coins into them. This was the cycle of the market- letting money just rot in the warehouse and doing nothing with them was the most idiotic thing one could do. The nobles in this world were extrely stupid for doing that. Not to ntion the amount of ti it would take to fill a warehouse with gold coins, they wouldn’t really benefit anything from those gold coins. What could they get from them? A rotten territory?
“But how do you turn goat milk into milk powder? They’re like water,” Mina asked. She had been thinking about how to turn goat milk into milk tea powder.
“You’ll know when the ti cos,” Liu Feng said, laughing lightly. He looked up at the stars in the sky. The night sky in this world is so beautiful.
They continued this slow and comfortable walk for a while until they reached the dock at around 8:30.
“Sinke!” Liu Feng suddenly said.
“Here!” Sinke said, walking next to Liu Feng with his head lowered.
“Did you get information on Omar’s whereabouts?” Liu Feng asked, his voice not containing a hint of emotion.
“Yes! He’s in Blazing Horse City’s castle. The security there isn’t very tight…” Sinke said, picking out the important information to report.
Liu Feng was silent for a while. “One man, two horses. Go and bring that Omar back alive. The ship will leave tomorrow at noon.”
“Understood!” Sinke said, leaving with 3 other people and disappearing into the darkness. They were going to prepare so things and then imdiately set off to complete their mission. He understood what Liu Feng ant- he had to quickly go to Blazing Horse City during the night to capture Omar and return by noon tomorrow. That was why he was told to bring two horses.
“Young Master, why don’t you just kill him?” Mina asked, a bit puzzled. Omar had planned the horse thieves’ attacks, so to her, Omar deserved to die.
“Death is simple. He will be in pain for a little while and soon be relieved, freed of his cris,” Liu Feng said, his black eyes flashing. His voice was low. “That’s not good. There is a place that will suit him well.”
If he wanted to kill Omar, he could have simply sent over the War Wolf Squad and Omar would easily be dead. But that wasn’t very aningful. To nobles who had lived luxurious lives since their birth, there was nothing scarier than to beco powerless and not have any enjoynt.
Liu Feng was planning to send Omar to dig in underground mines- a place without light, day, or night.
That was a place that people who deserved to die should go.
