My Wife Is Great Fief Lord

Chapter 121 The Messenger (monthly pass plus update)

When Gervais and Anna arrived in the lobby, it didn’t take long for a messenger dressed as a valet to be ushered in by Thomas.

When the messenger dressed as a servant came to Gervais, he saw the huge wolf head on Gervais’ desk and chair, and the sharp teeth in the wolf head’s mouth, his pupils could not help shrinking, and his body trembled slightly. , but fortunately, he now represents his master, and he does not dare to show anything that would damage Baron Bart’s face, trying his best to suppress the panic just now

“Dear Lord Baron, my Lord Baron Bart, let me bring you my best regards!”

After Baron Bart’s messenger came to Gervais, he gave a salute to Gervais, and then said to Gervais in a respectful tone.

“Thank you Baron Bart for your greetings, what’s the matter with Baron Bart sending you to my castle this time?”

Gervais sat with his back straight, sitting in his special seat , right hand stroking the head of the storm wolf on the armrest. Although Thomas and Anna did not find the messenger just now, they could not escape Gervais’ eyes, which made Gervais doubt that he must look like those mountain kings in the movie Earth. .

“Dear Lord Baron, this is a letter handwritten by my master Baron Bart, please read it!”

The messenger immediately took out a chapter envelope from his bosom and bent it. Waist up to the front.

Anna next to Gervais saw it and immediately stepped forward to take the envelope and hand it to Gervais.

Gervais took the envelope, removed the lacquer, took out the letter and began to read.

“Your Excellency Gervais, I take the liberty to send someone to disturb you, but as your neighbor, I feel it is necessary to visit you and enhance the relationship between you and me. In order not to appear abrupt, I specially sent If your servants come to deliver the letter, I will leave tomorrow and arrive at your castle with my friendship and gifts! -Bart Bowyer”

Before picking up the letter, Gervais guessed that Baron Bart was looking for Did he invite him to a banquet or something, but after seeing the letter, Gervais was a little confused.

People want to get closer to the neighbors by inviting guests to be a guest. This is good for Baron Bart. He directly said that he is going to be a guest here at Gervais. A guest at a stranger’s house.

But fortunately, Baron Bart said he would come with a gift, otherwise Gervais would think that Baron Bart had encountered some difficulties and could not afford to eat and wanted to come to him for a meal.

“Has Baron Bart said the reason for his coming tomorrow?”

Gervais put down the letter, looked towards the courier, and asked him.

“I’m very sorry, Lord Baron. My master has no extra instructions, but I only brought his sincere greetings to you, and this letter.”

The courier Hearing Gervais’ reply, he looked away from the strange storm wolf’s head and replied respectfully to Gervais.

“Well, in that case, you help me and Baron Bart say that I very much welcome his visit and look forward to his arrival tomorrow!”

Since there is nothing in the messenger , Gervais didn’t think about it anymore, anyway, this Baron Bart finds his own reasons, and he will know tomorrow.

“Yes, Lord Baron, I will bring your words to my master, and the villain will say goodbye!”

After the messenger wrote down Gervais’ words, he immediately To Gervais gave a salute.

……

When Bart’s messenger left, Gervais came to the vestibule and walked to the stone house where gunpowder was stored. Since the fence was built here, Gervais It moved its grenade manufacturing workshop from the mill here. There are fences here to prevent people from sneaking into the stone house. More importantly, it is far away from the city wall and the castle wall. Even if there is an accident, it will not be destroyed by an explosion. Great damage to the castle.

He named it the laboratory, although the servants didn’t understand it, but as long as Gervais said he went to the laboratory, Anna would wait for him in the inner castle obediently and would not follow him, because This laboratory is only accessible to Gervais.

Since the successful test of the simple grenade, Gervais has been pondering how to make new leads, because the first lead is too simple and the burning speed is very fast, which requires lengthening the lead to ensure its own It’s safe, but the two-meter-long lead can’t be used in actual combat at all, and it’s completely useless, so Gervais has been experimenting with what material is more suitable for the lead.

In order to delay the burning of the lead wire, but not too slow, Gervais first thought of reducing the content of gunpowder, but found it useless.

Then Gervais started with the material, first replaced the paper with linen thread, but it was not ideal, because the linen thread did not absorb water, and the gunpowder was easy to fall off after it dries out, and it is likely to be in the It is lit and thrown out and then extinguished. Yesterday, Gervais finally thought of one thing, and that is cotton, because the cotton production in this world is not high, and cotton is even more popular than wool. There are two sets of cotton coats.

After thinking of cotton, Gervais immediately took out his own set of cotton-padded clothes, and pulled out a small amount of cotton directly from the small hole in the cotton-padded jacket. It was cut at the time, and the cotton used to block the nose was officially dug out of this cotton coat.

After getting the cotton, Gervais twisted the cotton into a string, then mixed the gunpowder into the boiled wheat soup, and mixed the two together, the gunpowder became sticky and not easy to fall off. , and then soaked the cotton rope in it. After taking it out, the whole cotton rope was full of gunpowder, and Gervais left it directly to dry.

Today, Gervais dares to come here just to test whether its cotton lead wire can achieve the expected effect. After a short reduction, I came to the open space outside the house and ignited the cotton lead with a kindling.

Hiss~

1, 2, 3…7, 8!

“Haha! It worked!”

After igniting a length of five or six centimeters of lead, Gervais was surprised to find that the cotton lead was burning just as fast as he had expected. The burning speed of the fireworks in the previous life is exactly the same. As long as the length of the lead is controlled, the grenade can be used safely.

The success of the lead means that Gervais’ grenades will soon be ready for production, and will actually reach the point of actual combat.

At the same time, it also means that he will be able to find trouble with the unicorn again tomorrow and the day after tomorrow. If he can really kill the unicorn with this grenade, then Gervais will definitely make a lot of money, Qianba One hundred pounds of devil beast meat is worth more than 80 gold coins, and the long horns of unicorns must be worth a lot of money. Thinking of this, Gervais’s heart became hot, and he quickly managed the stone house, ready to go to the blacksmith shop to get him the day before yesterday. The intended iron tube was exactly what Gervais had Bernard forge in order to make the grenade.
