Chapter 99 Wine Opening

 …

After explaining what happened in the town square, Gervais didn’t stay here, the weather was too hot, And satisfied with the way Laurie and Audrey had chosen, Gervais rode on his horse and returned to the castle slowly with his little maid, Anna.

Gervais is in a good mood at the moment. The supplies that Gandalf gave him arrived, Viscount Lenny’s camp was temporarily destroyed by him, the ice-making business was about to set sail, and the recruitment of soldiers was guaranteed. Yes, he felt that his dream of being a landlord and old wealth would be getting closer and closer to him.

“Young man, you can’t be proud, keep working hard! Haha!” Gervais rode his horse to the front courtyard of the castle, laughed heartily, causing the guards and servants in the castle to pay attention, not understanding his own fief How can the lord laugh so well, I didn’t see the fief lord talking to anyone just now.

“fief lord.” When Gervais’s horses came to the vestibule, a servant was already ready, and the moment Gervais stopped his horses, he came to stabilize the horses and waited for Gervais to dismount.

“Yes!”

After Gervais dismounted, he walked towards the inner fort, nodded in front of neat footman.

“Sir, you are back, dinner is ready, do you want to start eating right away?”

When Gervais walked into the inner castle, Thomas, who heard the news, rushed over immediately, Bow to Gervais and ask.

“Well, let’s eat, I’m a little hungry too.”

Because I got up late this morning, and it was already afternoon when the celebration feast started, so After a while, it was time for dinner. At the celebration dinner, Gervais only focused on talking with Nathan, and went out for a walk without eating any food. He was really hungry at the moment.

“Okay, sir!”

Thomas didn’t dare to neglect when he knew that Gervais was going to eat immediately, he immediately gave a salute to Gervais, and ran quickly into the kitchen to inform Chef Jimmy that he wanted to eat. It’s served.

“Thomas, I have a few things to tell you, you can do it tomorrow!”

The long table is now full of food, and Gervais eats while eating He explained to Thomas who was waiting beside him.

“Your Excellency, please tell me.”

Thomas heard that Gervais was going to give him a task, and immediately took out a notepad professionally from his arms, his ears pricked up and focused attentively. Waiting for Gervais below.

“Tomorrow you will go to the seaside mountain village to inform the village chief there that I will start buying oysters and ask them to prepare them. They will need them in about a week. Crabs, the quantity is 100 each, you can let them find them and keep them on the beach, and I will send someone to get them after a week. As for the price…”

Gervais thought for a while After a while, he said slowly: “Gold oysters 1 Silver Coin, lobster and crab 2 1 copper, you and the village chief said that if the farming is busy recently, the old man and the child can pick them up, I will buy the golden oysters and lobsters. For long-term acquisitions, everyone in their village can take turns to pick them up in the future, but there is one thing to pay attention to, only catch the big ones, and let the small ones go. Whip.”

This world, if a serf helps others, the average salary is three coppers, and some even only two coppers. 1,000 catties of oysters sounds like a lot, but this thing is quite heavy, and the seaside has already Flooding, it is not difficult to pick up at all. It only takes a dozen or twenty people to pick it up in one day. The big lobster and big crab are more difficult to catch and need to be caught in the sea, so Gervais gave the price of half a copper plate. .

Although the price Gervais gave is not very high, it is definitely not low. You must know that even if the serfs are willing to work as two peasants a day, there is no place for them to work, and the storm collar is full of hardships. haha, no industry needs workers at all.

“Remember? Thomas.”

After speaking, Gervais’s dinner was almost finished, so Gervais put down the knife and fork in his hand, and Yura, who was behind him, immediately became obedient. Handing over the handkerchief, Gervais wiped his hands with it before continuing to look towards Thomas.

“Sir, remember it.”

“Very good, the following is to recruit three people who will follow Jimmy to learn how to cook golden oysters and seafood. These three people need to know the conduct , and there must be family members, I plan to send them to other nobles to sell golden oysters after they learn, and pay to teach those noble chefs how to cook golden oysters and seafood, this person is very important, so you need to choose it yourself.”

“In addition, there is also the acquisition of garlic. You will take garlic to the town and three villages tomorrow to show those villagers, and let them gather all the garlic in one place and plant it well, when the time comes I will also pay for it.”

“Okay lord, don’t worry, the villain will not let you down!”

Gervais said while Thomas recorded , and waited until the recording was completed, and then bowed again to make assurances to Gervais.

“Well, that’s fine, Anna, show me your little book, there’s something else I need to do right away.”

As a lord, Although the population of the territory is not large, everything has to start from scratch. He may forget some things sometimes, so he asked the little maid to bring a small notebook in the past two days, thinking of the things that need to be done, according to The priorities are sorted one after another, and Anna will record them on it, so now he needs to see what projects he has on behalf of.

“My lord, here it is!”

The well-behaved Anna had been standing behind Gervais, and when she heard what Gervais said, she quickly took out a small book and handed it to Gervais, if not wearing a maid Pretending to be a perfect little secretary.

Gervais took the small book from Anna’s fair little hands, with the faint fragrance of a girl on it, Gervais moved his nose and opened the book.

“Look at my memory, Thomas, wait a minute, wait for me to go to the kitchen!”

When opening the small notebook, Gervais slapped his head and almost destroyed his wine business Forget it, today’s mind is occupied by seafood and ice.

After speaking, Gervais got up in a hurry and ran into the kitchen. The wine has been brewing for a while, and the weather is so hot now, it should be similar, as long as the taste is good, then he will buy a lot of grapes, Start brewing in batches, and when the number increases, make a 233-year-old golden wine. After a dozen or twenty years, you may be able to sell several bottles of gold coins.

Gervais ran eagerly to the kitchen, to the jars where the wine was made, and tore away the dirt and parchment paper that was used as a seal.

“Oh, it tastes good!” As soon as Gervais opened the jar, the sweet smell of wine wafted from the jar, and this familiar smell made Gervais tremble instantly.

“Good stuff, it depends on how you taste now, I hope you won’t disappoint me!” Get ready to taste some of the otherworldly wines he brews himself.
