My Wife Is Great Fief Lord

Chapter 28 Grapes

“fief lord, I picked some wild fruits for you, do you want to eat them?” At this moment, the guard who was in charge of shouting along the way was holding a few bunches The purple fruit came to Gervais and asked Gervais flatteringly.

“en? What kind of fruit is this?” Gervais was a little stunned when he saw the fruit in the guard’s hand. He had just seen the guard walking behind the grass next to him, and thought it was convenient, so he didn’t care. , I never thought he was going to pick fruit.

“Back to fief lord, this is a wild fruit on the roadside. We used to pick and eat it when we were out patrolling. It’s sweet and sour. It’s delicious.”

This special Isn’t it grapes? Gervais is indeed a little confused, what happened today, first oysters, then garlic, and now grapes, did I not travel to the foreign world, but to the ancient times of the West?

But it is also impossible to think about, this world has Battle Qi, devil beast, and most importantly, the strange spiritworm.

Gervais took a bunch of grapes from the guards, picked one and tasted it in his mouth, and found that it tasted exactly the same as the grapes, only slightly more sour than the improved varieties on Earth.

“Take me to see what the branches of this fruit look like?” Gervais didn’t bother to taste the grapes anymore, so he quickly stood up and said to the guard.

“Yes, it’s your lord.” Now it was the guard’s turn to be a little confused. He was just picking a wild fruit by the roadside and wanted to take a picture of fief lord’s flattery, didn’t expect fief lord There was such a big reaction.

Laurie and Audrey saw Gervais stand up, and immediately got up and followed Gervais to check.

“Your Excellency, this is it.” The guards led Gervais behind the grass to a clearing with five or six wild grapes growing in the clearing. While on Earth, Gervais had only seen vines in farmhouses, and those vines were growing neatly along the racks the farmers had made.

But now these vines are crawling all over the place. There are trees climbing trees, and there are no trees growing on the ground. Gervais approached and carefully identified them. They were indeed similar to the vines he had seen in the farmhouse. The leaves, fruits, and rhizomes are exactly the same, but these wild vines have grown for unknown years, and one rhizome is almost as thick as an adult’s wrist.

“Good stuff!” Gervais was happier to see these vines than to see oysters and garlic, because oysters are not preserved, can’t be sold far away, they have no value, they can only be given to him To fill the appetite, and garlic leaves are similar, although he may earn some gold coins according to his ideas, but it is a one-shot deal. There are only a few nobles in the coastal areas, and there is always a time to teach.

But the grapes in front of you are different. In the past life, because grapes formed a global industry, that is wine. As long as Gervais brews wine, I believe that gold coins will come rolling in, and this thing is a consumable like food. As long as it is promoted, it will not be sold at all.

There is no wine in this world. Whether it is Gandalf Castle or Rose Castle, Gervais has only seen beer brewed from wheat. After Gervais tasted it, it was completely devoid of alcohol.

Looking at these vines, Gervais wanted to dig these treasures back immediately, but seeing that many grapes on the vines were not ripe, he pressed his thoughts back, if he Now that these vines are dug up, the unripe grapes on the vines will rot. If I want to wait for the next ripening, it is estimated that I will wait until next year. Right now, these grapes will all ripen in ten days at most half a month p>

Besides, I don’t know how many years these vines have been here, and no one cares. They won’t run away after waiting for more than ten days, and since this world has grape varieties, it will definitely not be only So many plants.

The vines will not be dug for the time being, but when I go back later, I will definitely pick some ripe grapes and take them back to test them first.

Ye Feng saw his grandmother make wine when he was a child. Wine making looks fairly simple. Wash it and dry it. After drying, pinch it into pieces and put it in a sealed container. Then wait for fermentation. , and then filter the grape pomace out, and the grape juice continues to ferment until it becomes wine. Gervais even remembers what his grandmother said, adding some egg white liquid during the second fermentation to improve the clarity of the wine.

But this is also because Ye Feng was curious about everything when he was a child, and there are always 100,000 whys. His grandmother explained it to him, and he has not tried it himself.

It doesn’t matter if you think about it, as long as you know the steps, you can take some back later and brew some according to the steps in your memory. If there are any shortcomings, you can gradually improve it. As for the taste of the wine, Gervais believes that it will always taste better than this world’s beer. At the banquet in Rose Castle, Gervais also tasted this world’s beer. The taste is like the effect of the beer on Earth after being opened for a day or two. , Not to mention bitterness, there is basically no bubble.

……

Laurie and the others stood behind Gervais, not sure what happened to Gervais today, when he was on his way two days ago, Gervais was normal, but today we only see him These plants have become strange.

In their opinion, these plants are very common, let alone this wild fruit, at least it can be eaten, maybe Lord Baron likes to eat this wild fruit, it is better to understand. However, with the ‘weeds’ on the carriage, they scratched their heads and couldn’t figure out what they could do to make their Lord Baron so happy.

Of course Gervais didn’t know about Laurie’s distress, and even if he did, he wouldn’t explain it to them now. Could he tell them that garlic can be made into minced garlic? Then what is garlic? It’s scary to think about.

As a fief lord, Gervais doesn’t need to explain anything to others, so after seeing the vine, he didn’t say anything, but went back to the resting place and continued to sit and eat. Grape.

After the rest, Gervais entire group started to hurry again, moved towards the buffer zone.

……

Binhai Town is very lively at the moment. It is different from the scene when Gervais arrived yesterday. There are about four or five hundred people gathered in the town square, at least a small part of it. half of the town’s population.

These people were all gathered in the square, although they were dressed in rags, but at the moment they were whispering and chatting happily. There are three main topics of their chat.

The first one is, of course, that they have a new fief lord. In fact, the news spread in a small area last night. It was all spread by 18 serfs who went to clean the castle, but because yesterday they When they came back, it was already late, and only their neighbors knew about it. They knew that this morning, people were shocked to find something more in the square of the town, and spread the news on a large scale while watching. .

The second thing is the extra stuff on the town square. The square of the town is located on the main road in the center of the town. Although it is only a muddy ground without floors, the area is very wide, at least more than 600 square meters. At this moment, in the center of the square, a wooden stake has been erected on the wooden stake. There was a person hanging, and as the summer wind blew, there was a rattling sound at the junction of the rope and the stake. The person hanging was Benny’s subordinate who was killed by Ike.

As for the third thing, and the one that people talk about the most, just now, Thomas stood at the forefront of the square, on a high platform made of huge stones, and announced something that made the serfs excited. endless things. That is, the fief lord is going to recruit servants and maids, and the open recruitment will be held tomorrow. Anyone who meets the requirements can participate.

The recruitment requirements are not high. The age range of the maids and maids should be between 14 and 25 years old. The only condition for a maid is to be unmarried. As for the valet, he can come to the selection tomorrow if he meets the above criteria.

“I heard that our fief lord is very generous. Yesterday they just went to clean for one afternoon and received 3 coppers.”

“Really? Who do you listen to? Yeah? How could the nobleman be so generous?”

“Shh, be quiet, don’t you want to be hanged?”

“It’s true, I’m next door His son’s friend from the Second Uncle family went to the castle to clean yesterday, and I heard that he really got 3 coins.”

“Yes, I heard that too, it seems that there are still two people left. I’m a servant in the castle!”

“I’m lucky, why did I go to work in the fields yesterday, if I stay in the town, maybe I’m a servant in the castle”

……

“Why was this only the guard killed by the fief lord? The guard Captain should be killed!”

“That’s right, how pitiful that girl is, just They spoiled me like this! The Captain should be killed!”

“Shhh, be careful to be heard by the guards, when the time comes the Captain is coming for you!”

“Wow, No, now that there is a fief lord who can call the shots for us, what are we afraid of him for?”

“Bah, it’s not like you don’t know about these noble lords, they like the villains like Captain the most, only So that they can squeeze us hard, if the fief lord really decides for us, why not kill the guard Captain together?”

……

“Shia, I want to go To be a maid in the castle, do you think they will choose me tomorrow?”

“I shouldn’t, you have so many freckles on your face.”

“hmph, I’ll ignore you, in case the fief lord likes girls with freckles!”

“I have to go to the mountain village today and tell Dean the news, if he can be chosen to be the castle lord Servant, the situation at my aunt’s house will get better.”

The whole town, everyone is talking about it, whether it’s good or bad, but the arrival of Gervais has really caused a stir in this territory. huge waves.
