Rise In Calradia

Chapter 19: :peony

   After some thought, Byron borrowed a quill pen and drew a peony flower on the paper.

   Originally Byron wanted to use more mighty patterns, such as the dragon in his hometown, but after thinking about it, he felt too ostentatious. It was simply uncomfortable to find.

  Intricate patterns and decorations, especially those with beasts and gorgeous weapons, were contracted by the nobles. If unknown mercenaries dare to use them, they will be ridiculed and suppressed secretly. Byron's better not to challenge this unspoken rule for the time being.

   There are countless flowers on the Calradia continent that use all kinds of flowers as the symbol of their mercenary team, and Byron only needs to pick one that no one has seen before.

   And as far as Byron knows, the peony, the national flower of the celestial dynasty, is basically something that can only be seen in books on the mainland. It fits this feature, and it also makes Byron miss his hometown where he is not sure if he can go back.

   As for why it is peony, Byron is actually quite helpless. At this time, he could remember that the only famous flowers in his hometown were peony, lotus, and plum, but the only ones he could paint completely without distortion at this time were peony.

   "Our logo, peony."

   After Byron finished painting the peony, he added two thin leaves flying upwards under the flower. Byron deliberately painted the tip of the leaves very thinly, making the two leaves look as sharp as a sword.

   "I have seen such a flower in the library, but it is a pity that Calradia does not grow this flower. Very good, Mr. Byron, it is beautiful and rare. I remember it."

   Malone nodded, turned around and entered the house. And Byron also took the picture drawn on the thin cloth, and went to a tailor to make a few pieces of cloth, and painted the peony pattern that Byron told him. As for the flag, Byron didn't even dare to think about it.

   Byron believes that if he tells his friends in his hometown about this idea, they will definitely laugh at why they chose peony as a sign, whether it is the moral or the image is wrong.

But when Byron showed this pattern to Fatis and other soldiers, they accepted it very naturally. Fatis also praised Byron for his erudition. He was able to pick out such a flower from so many kinds of flowers that it was almost seen on the mainland. The existence of less than.

   Byron's face has been tempered, so he doesn't blush, but he still feels embarrassed to be praised so much.

   But anyway, Byron's mercenary team finally has a decent pattern.

   It is reasonable to say that smuggling out of the country cannot be delayed, but in order to find a way through the camp in the area where the two sides are fighting, Byron stayed in Uxhall for five days!

   At this time, Byron realized that he had calculated too little. He was too naive to think that as long as he arrived, there would be a way.

   But after inquiring, I learned that several groups of merchants who tried to smuggle had been caught and confiscated the goods. The reason was naturally that they had violated the order of His Majesty King Harous.

   Of course, everyone who knows the inside story knows that the biggest problem for these people is that they did not find a nobleman who participated in the front-line war as a "partner."

   Now even Uxhall has stepped up the investigation of past merchants. If the relationship is not established, Byron will not be able to complete the plan.

   But now Byron is an ordinary mercenary, and he has no reputation. If he meets the nobles, it would be impossible if there is no introduction from Fattis.

   But Fatis didn't know many nobles, and it was even more difficult to find someone who could help him.

   Byron walked around the city for 5 days through the mayor, only to use his identity as a child of the Fatis nobleman to see a baron who had withdrawn from the front. The baron himself is also a knight, with great military exploits, but he has been very nervous. It is said that although his soldiers are loyal to him, they always complain that the salary cannot be paid in time. Byron's opportunity is here.

In order to accomplish his goal, Byron put on a velvet coat worth twenty dinars, put on the restored chain armor inside, and talked a few respectfully in accordance with the etiquette and routine of the nobility. He talked about his combat experience as naturally as possible, and finally pleased the Sith Baron.

   After offering 200 dinars of the "military donation" for the soldiers of the Baron, the Baron Sith told Byron how to cross the border.

"I will issue a certificate proving that you are legal merchants and sent supplies for the front line. Then you have to find "Baron William Ham", who is a quartermaster under Lord Kleis who is in charge of the front lines. You need supplies, and with his help, you can cross the border. I'm sorry, I am a knight, I prefer fighting, I don’t know how to get you straight through there."

   "But he is very shrewd. He won't accept your dinar directly. He will definitely come up with the conditions that will benefit him the most."

   "Thank you for your help, my lord."

  Byron bent over to salute, and Fatis paid tribute to him. Fatis did not know the baron, but he still knew Fatis’ father. 200 dinars are not many for the nobles. The Sith baron is more for the face of Fatis’s family. let's go.

   Even if Fatis announced that he had left the family, his reason was because he killed his brother in anger. The most indispensable thing among the nobles ~www.novelmt.com~ is to fight for the right of inheritance. So even so, Fatis' identity is still recognized by the nobles, at least much stronger than those illegitimate children.

   But compared to Byron, Baron Sith is actually more interested in the logo that Byron drew for himself. He has never seen that kind of flower, so he deliberately talked with Byron about peony flowers. But after knowing that this kind of flower is extremely rare in Calradia continent, he sighed regretfully. He also hoped to buy a bunch of these flowers for his wife before.

   Of course, it is not only because of the love between husband and wife, but also because there are very few recreational activities of aristocratic women under the background of this era.

After Byron got the letter that could prove his identity, he found three more mercenaries who had been to Rodok. Their equipment was not good, but they all had their own horses, which were regarded as caravan guards. . Byron gave them 50 dinars to protect the caravan and act as a guide.

   And he promised to give them a bonus after running this trade route.

  Byron’s only regret is that he still has to keep the dinar for emergency use, and he can’t squander it, otherwise he will be more confident in hiring a few fully armed infantry on this trip.

   In addition to the Rhodok guards on the border, the bandits in the Rhodok Kingdom must also be extra careful. After suffering a loss, Byron already knew how hydrated his troops were, and the level of soldiers was very slow, so he didn't dare to take risks.

   And what makes Byron even more worried is how to sell this large amount of oil if it enters the territory of Rhodok? How to buy Rodok goods?

   Even if the goods are in short supply, the nobles will not let them go easily. Caravans are sometimes moving dinar vaults. The robbers took it away, and the nobles kept harvesting like sheep.
