Sinke had a bitter face as he looked at the food in front of him. In the past, he loved to eat salted meat 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 meat not to your liking?” A North Wind City knight asked, curious. Even they wouldn’t be able to eat such meat every day.
“I already ate before I came 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 become a knight. He saw the reality before him- even knights had to fight for meat.
“Then that’s a real pity. Let me tell you, these meats 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 meats today because of you knights from West Sun City and Lord Liu Feng.”
“Yeah, eat a bit more; the banquet inside won’t end anytime soon. Enjoy the meat and wheat wine.”
The North Wind City knights that sat at the same 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 meat 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 time,” a knight asked, confused.
Sinke smiled faintly. The duty he was referring to was assuring Liu Feng’s safety. He only had free time when he was back at the military camp or on vacation.
“Do you really not want to eat? These meats had been marinated for 3 hours- they’re very flavorful,” a knight said while holding a piece of meat in one had and a hard wheat bread in the other hand.
“You guys eat. I’ve already eaten before I came here,” Sinke said, secretly rubbing his empty stomach. He would rather go back and eat some dried food instead of these salted meats.
Tap. Tap. Tap.
Hearing the sound of footsteps, Sinke knew that someone had come 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 same table as him, Sinke immediately 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 some of the young noblewomen seeing him off.
Liu Feng immediately 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 immediately blocked the young noblewomen 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 emerged from the shadows and immediately 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 noblewomen.
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 method of making milk powder on Earth, though he will add some 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 extremely 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 equipment 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 extremely stupid for doing that. Not to mention the amount of time 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 time comes,” 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. “2 horses per person. 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 some things and then immediately set off to complete their mission. He understood what Liu Feng meant- 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 for each person.
“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 crimes,” 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 meaningful. To nobles who had lived luxurious lives since their birth, there was nothing scarier than to become powerless and not have any enjoyment.
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.
