Chapter 23 Spirits

How much?

The process of distilled liquor is not very complicated, and the cost is divided into three things.

The first is to make a distiller, which is a necessary product for distilled liquor.

The second is artificial.

The third is food.

As far as Luther knows, the current food and brewing workers in Pompeii are slightly insufficient. If distilled liquor is produced on a large scale, it is necessary to import grain and train workers.

After considering it, Luther proposed a word count. This word count is not large, much less than buying a Bath cattle, so Mrs. Sophie agreed immediately.

After Luther obtained the funds, he did not rush to go to the winery.

Luther first visited old Bob, the blacksmith uncle who had the dream of becoming a farmer. This time Luther also brought the drawings and the drawings of the still.

Old Bob was very happy to see Luther, so he quickly handed over the blacksmith shop to his son, and then entertained Luther in the house behind him.

This time, the old Bob's wife was also there. She was a chubby woman with a dark complexion and looked like an ordinary peasant woman.

Old Bob's wife prepared water and some cookies to entertain Luther.

Luther took a sip of water, did not eat the biscuits, and then took out a drawing and handed it to the old Bob. The old Bob was very excited when he saw it, rubbed his hands and took it, and asked, "Master Luther, is this a farming artifact again?"

As a dream-ridden blacksmith, Old Bob has a strong persistence in becoming an agriculture company. Last time Luther brought the drawings of the plow, which made Old Bob very excited.

He thought Luther had invented a new farming artifact again.

"This has nothing to do with agriculture, I have other uses. How can I make it well?" Luther shook his head and asked.

Bob was a little disappointed when he heard that it was not an agricultural artifact. However, he was very serious about what Luther explained. He looked at the drawings and said, "It will take three days."

"Okay, I'll get this thing in three days." Luther stood up, bid farewell to the blacksmith Bob, and returned to the castle.

Three days later, Luther took Xiu Xiuya and a team of guards to take the distiller from Bob's blacksmith shop and headed to the winery.

The Pompeii territory consists of a castle, ten towns and serfs. The Pompeii's property, blacksmith shop, and grocery shop are all near the castle, winery, wheat flour workshops, and pastures are scattered around the territory.

The winery manor is located in the No. 1 gate and the No. 2 gate, and the distance from the castle is relatively close, so it arrived soon.

The winery has a small facility and is relatively simple in scale. After all, it only produces ale for ordinary people to drink. The person responsible for managing this place is Niu Jin, the son of Old Feilun.

A fat and fat middle-aged man smiled and his flesh was trembling, and his eyes were almost gone.

If nothing unexpected happens, then after Lao Feilun resigns, the fat middle-aged man in front of him will be the next generation of the Pompeii family.

As a steward who has served the Pompeii family for countless generations, Niu Jin's loyalty is unquestionable. But when Luther saw Niu Jin, he felt a sense of incongruity as he looked at a Buddha.

This fat and white look so fat and looks so good as a Buddha.

In addition to Niu Jin, there are less than twenty employees in the winery, most of whom are apprentices, and there are only four or five real winemakers.

This is what Luther learned from Mrs. Sophie.

"Master Luther, why are you here?" When Niu Jin came to greet him, Luther had already entered the manor. He asked the workers to pull Luther and Xiu Xiu'a's horse down to take care of him, and then asked.

Their family served the Pompeii family in their family era, so Niu Jin was respectful and loyal to Luther, but not humble.

"I thought of a way to make new wine. You can find a few skilled brewers to help brew it." Luther said to Niu Jin with a smile, then he turned around and asked the guards to unload the still on the car.

"New wine?" Niu Jin was stunned. Although he was in charge of the winemaking estate, he often went in and out of the castle and watched Luther grow up. In addition to being interested in the knight, this young master seemed to have no interest in wine, let alone brewing new wine.

However, Niu Jin immediately thought of Luther's agricultural development in the entire territory, and his eyes lit up.

Pompeii is so big and relatively plain. Even things that are big and big, can be spread for a long time. For example, the mistress of a certain family stole a man or something.

It's big news.

Not to mention that Luther made a plow, which completely changed the farmer's plowing field.

So for some reason, Niu Jin was very confident in Luther's so-called new wine.

"Okay, I'll go find the brewing master and the apprentices who come here immediately. Just give me what you want to do." Niu Jin said enthusiastically, then turned around and summoned people.

Not long after, all the masters and apprentices in this small winery manor arrived.

Everyone was curious about what earth-shaking things could this young master Luther do. Like Niu Jin, they also knew that Luther invented the plow.

Luther had nothing to say, this was not an army and needed mobilization in front of the station.

This winery is the private property of the Pompeii family. All of them work for Pompeii. So there is nothing to say. Luther waved his hand and ordered his work.

And things like distillers don’t need any kind of site, even if they are placed flat on mud ground. Therefore, the distiller will be built soon.

Soon after, Luther directed the workers to start making distilled liquor.

The so-called distilled wine is actually very simple, and there is no big secret. It is to use the different boiling points of wine and water to heat the original fermentation broth between the boiling points of the two, and then the alcohol ingredients and fragrance substances can be steamed and collected.

All in all, that's a very simple thing.

However, Luther was also a theorist before and had not done it himself. Therefore, Luther spent three days eating and living in the winery for these three days, and he could be said to have been forgetting to eat and sleep.

Finally, Luther obtained the distilled liquor.

Speaking of the so-called distilled liquor, it is actually ale, with the taste of ale, but it has a more mellow taste.

The only change is that the wine has a high degree of degree.

After one sip, it was hot and hot, from the throat to the stomach, and then flowed to the whole body.

One word, cool.

When the finished product came out, Luther brought Xiu Xiuya, the guards, and a barrel of distilled liquor to the castle.

I didn't say goodbye to Niu Jin because Niu Jin couldn't help drinking more when the finished product came out and was currently sleeping soundly.

Ha ha.

The alcohol tolerance is really poor.

But then again, this wine is not suitable for people with poor alcohol content.
