After eating and drinking, Ludwig went to the counter to pay and immediately felt a little painful.
Those pork elbow sausages are fine, but the three sky-high priced dishes that Eleanor specified as being produced: white asparagus, white truffles, and geoduck are all high-end ingredients that are scarce and expensive.
It was not so bad in his family before, but after he inherited his father's title of Viscount Hightower, he rarely ate these things because they were too expensive.
Father, you really dote on my sister too much. You've spoiled her taste.
After dinner, Ludwig called his driver and butler, intending to send Cang Qing Zhi Jian and others to Mingxing City.
"Hey, it's a car!" Peggy said immediately as she looked at the stretched sports car parked on the side of the road, "I can drive it!"
She was about to open the door of the cab, but fortunately Eleanor quickly grabbed her.
"There's a driver." She reminded quietly.
"There's another one in the back." Ludwig said with a smile, "Miss, you can drive it if you want."
"No, no." Eleanor glared at him. If Peggy really drove in the front and let the driver sit in the back, then tomorrow the Blue Sword would become a joke among all the servants of the Weisbach family.
There are two extended sports cars in front and back, each of which can seat about 8 people. Under normal circumstances, nobles will bring a driver, butler, personal servants, and attendants (bodyguards) when traveling, adding up to about 6 or 7 people. The remaining seats are naturally for emergencies.
Emergency means: usually the host, butler and 1 personal servant sit in one car, and the rest sit in another. If you want to receive guests, and the guests bring their own team, then the host, guest, butler and personal servants of both parties sit in one car.
However, the Blue Sword had nine people at once, and with Hood who had already resigned, there were far from enough emergency positions. Therefore, when he first came out, Ludwig secretly instructed the butler to arrange for several personal servants to go back early to make room for the girls.
Speaking of girls, Ludwig had long felt something was wrong. Normal mercenary groups usually have more men than women, so why is it that your Blue Sword is made up entirely of women
He found an opportunity to ask Eleanor quietly, but was immediately refuted by the latter:
"Where did they come from all women? Isn't the captain a man? Isn't Hood also a man?"
"Okay." Ludwig thought that if there were only men and his sister among them, he would still feel uneasy.
However, since he recruited so many women into the group, this leader of Ask might have some problems in his personal life. Although Ludwig is confident in his sister's mate selection criteria, but... judging from the fact that the daughter of the Licinius family likes him, this leader might not be a pushover.
"I thought all these cars were scrapped after the demon tide came." Eleanor said as she got into the car.
"It's scrapped." Ludwig said with a smile, "The car is a batch of new goods we urgently ordered from Solomon City after the rise of the magic tide ended. The supplier happened to be Miss Nora's Licinius family."
"What does your family do, Nora?" Sheila asked curiously.
"It seems to be in the manufacturing industry." Nora said uncertainly, "Precision manufacturing."
