Warlord: King of All Clans
Chapter 165 Love Meal in Dream
On both sides of the unlit fire pit, there were two rows of similar food placed on the rough, heavy, long wooden table.
On the plate in front of each person, there was a large piece of roasted fresh venison steak, a piece of soft bread with the unique sweet aroma of deer antler cassava, and two fresh unknown fruits.
In front of the plate is a large shared serving plate containing vegetables, fruits, dried meats and cheeses that can be eaten directly.
Next to the plates were bottles and jars of butter, honey and jam.
Just like the Viking dinners in movies and TV shows, the style is primitive yet rich.
Compared to the difficult times six months ago, this is simply everyone's dream meal.
The three sisters across from us were drooling all over the table.
Of course, it’s not usually like this. This sumptuous dinner was because Leo came back.
In order to select and train pioneers and prepare for the development of Gravel Hills, Leo has been in Hekou Town for a week without going home.
As if a short separation is better than a new reunion, Olivia expressed her happiness through food.
Leo saw Olivia's best friend, the young widow Agata, serve all the food, then stand behind everyone, holding a wine jug and pouring wine into the glasses on the table.
Leo said, "You sit down too!"
"I'm not sitting down," the young widow Agata said proudly, "I'm Olivia's maid now!"
Leo couldn't help but sneer, "You've become a servant, how can you still be so proud?"
Agata didn't care at all. "Hehe, it's better than pouring wine for rude country guys in the tavern, right?"
She had been following Rusev in managing the tavern, and was very skilled at serving dishes and pouring wine.
Apparently she had some unhappy experience and fired her boss recently and came to work as Olivia's maid.
Rutherf's tavern actually has no shortage of people. The population of the River Bay Territory keeps growing, and the small commercial street in front of the dock is also expanding.
The tavern now occupies four shops, all with second-floor accommodation.
Instead of working hard on the fields with their parents, the unmarried girls in Hewan would rather work and earn money in the commercial street.
The lords of Hewan were extremely strict in their law and order management and had no fear of being bullied.
Of course, the village bachelors who had never had a good life and the foreign mercenaries who had never been beaten by the river bend guards would show their true colors after drinking a glass of beer, and many of them would touch the tavern waitresses inappropriately and speak foul language.
Some village girls choose to swallow their anger and make money in harmony, but some lose their temper on the spot and make a big fuss.
Agata happens to be the latter.
Every time she made a fuss, Rusev would happily stand behind the counter and watch the show, and then come out at the critical moment to support Agata.
As for the impact on business?
What a joke! Rusev has already become a wealthy man, how could he care about these few bucks?
What we want is the authority and pleasure of upholding justice!
But after a few times, Agata felt that she was still not suitable to be a tavern maid, so she turned around and fired Rusev, and came to the lord's house to be Olivia's maid.
However, Agatha was Olivia's maid, and her status was indeed not low.
Before they knew it, Hewan had expanded to this size, and Olivia had become the logistics manager for thousands of people. She had more than a dozen leaders who obeyed her orders and came to take over every day.
Some small businessmen and foreign investors also tried every means to get closer to her.
Agata followed Olivia not only to help with cooking and pouring wine, but also to assist in handling the logistics of River Bend.
It is tiring, but the power is considerable. If one has a crooked mind, one can easily make a lot of money.
Olivia had no choice. Apart from the little dog-headed man she raised, the only person she could trust was Agata.
The rest of the village girls who were close to her either lacked the ability and could only wash clothes and sweep the floor, or their minds were unstable and they could not keep their original intentions in the face of huge interests.
In fact, given the current economic conditions in Hewan, it would be too stingy for Olivia to only have one maid.
Similarly, the knight lord should provide a maid for each family member, as well as a professional butler, coachman, groom, cook, valet and maid.
Otherwise, how can I maintain my noble dignity? I will be laughed at when I go out!
If the noble ladies of Isenbol saw Olivia's shabby appearance, they would be ashamed to associate with her.
Freya was the kind of bratty kid who would fight for everything. When she heard what Agatha said, she immediately shouted, "I want to be Sister Olivia's maid, too!"
The little mouse followed closely behind, "I want one too!"
Feisa watched them arguing with an envious look.
But she is the king of the kobolds and must maintain her persona, so she cannot participate in this struggle for power.
Oh! How I envy you young people, while I am standing at a high place, feeling cold!
As they were talking, Uliyan walked in from outside, looking at the letter in his hand as he walked.
He is also accompanied by a puppy-headed man who acts as his literary advisor.
"I see... words. What is written on them?"
"Seeing the letter is like seeing the person," the little dog-headed man immediately explained after obviously reading the letter, "seeing the letter is like seeing the person."
"Oh~" Uliyan continued to read the letter, "Time... time... time..."
The little dog-headed man rolled his eyes secretly, "Time flies, which means the passage of time."
After reading the letter with difficulty, Wuliyang slammed the letter on the dining table and said indignantly: "This old Deng, he speaks elegantly in front of me and bullies me because I am uneducated!"
Leo took the letter and read it roughly, but he also had difficulty reading it.
This is a letter written by Rigolav to Ulyanovich. However, it is not written in some difficult and obscure imperial elegant language. It is written in vernacular with just a few elegant words.
The general meaning was that the Gladstone family had another idea, but he suppressed it, telling Urian not to worry, as well as a few simple family words.
After all, Ulyan was a rough man, and the hard training from the camp commander only allowed him to read simple military documents and instructions.
Rigolav came from a traditional square-banner knight family and of course had a certain literary background.
"You! You! You need to read more books. You have lowered the cultural level of our family." Leo evaluated Uliyang in the tone of an elder.
Uliyan glared and shouted, "How much better are you than me? What? Savinting!"
His literary advisor quickly said, "Same here."
Uliyan maintained his glare, "That's right!"
In fact, he also understood that with the vigorous development of Hewan, his cultural level really needed to be improved.
Otherwise, why would he read the letter himself when there was a kobold to read it for him?
But he didn't lose the battle, and Uliyang was not convinced.
Leo also felt guilty. After all, including freaks like Freya and the youngest ogre, his own literacy level was firmly in the bottom two. He had been competing with Urian for a long time for the last place.
One is that he is busy and the other is that he is lazy. As long as Leo works hard, with his current intelligence, how could he not be able to learn a foreign language better than Ulyanov, a rough guy?
The Imperial language he knew now was learned from watching Olivia and the little mouse teaching the children and kobolds in the River Bay. The number of times he really attended classes seriously was very few and far between.
