Chapter 33 Grilled Oysters
"Very good, I can't wait to see those silver treasures. With him, I will be able to arm an invincible knights. Let's see how arrogant my good-for-nothing brother will be when the time comes."
Hua, Viscount Lanni has let himself go a little bit and started to twist his fat body. Under his twisting, the circles of fat undulated like ocean waves.
"By the way, Tubby, there must be enough guards over there to prevent anything from happening. When escorting the minerals, arrange for Ute to go there."
"Yes, Lord Viscount." Tabby quickly agreed. Lanny's attention to this matter also put a lot of pressure on Tabby. Now that he heard that Ute was responsible for escorting, he felt a lot more at ease.
Ute is the only vassal baron under Viscount Lanni. He is a high-level bronze knight with the highest military value in Viscount Lanni.
"What's going on over there with my good-for-nothing brother?"
Lanny is the second son of Count Yolande Kirwan. He also has an older brother. The two have the same father. His brother's biological mother died of illness in his early years. Later Yolande took a second wife, Lanny.
He was born to Yolande's second wife.
Since Lanni was born, he has been deeply loved by Yolande. In addition, due to the strong wind blowing from his mother's pillow, Lanny, who was only in his early 20s, was made a viscount. The territory is still the only place rich in coal mines nearby. If it were not for the nobility
According to the succession system, Lanny was able to overthrow his elder brother and become the next earl of the Kirwan family.
Although Lenny has now become a viscount, he has not given up the idea of getting involved in the earl position. He has been working hard to develop and one day get rid of his brother who only has the right to inherit because he was born before him.
Although Lanni's brother is not as popular as Lanny by the earl, the earl has always cultivated him as his heir, and has also decentralized a lot of power in the territory, so the two brothers are evenly matched every time.
The reason why Lanny attaches so much importance to this mine this time is partly because of the economic value of the mine itself, and partly because of the material value of the mine.
"Sir Viscount, the spies report back every week, and there is nothing unusual." Tabby shook his head, indicating that there was nothing unusual.
"Very good. Now keep an eye on that batch of mines. The information must be tight."
"Yes, sir."
"Okay, you go down and call my baby in!" Lanny waved his hand, indicating that Tabby could leave. When Tabby exited the room, a woman dressed enchantingly walked in with a smile on her face.
The sad look is so touching.
Seeing the woman's appearance, Lanny immediately took two steps forward, opened his hands, and said sweetly to the woman: "Baby, I'm sorry for you, but we were just talking about business. If you don't avoid it, this bitch Tabby will tell my mother."
of."
"Huh, oh, Lord Viscount, you are so bad... Lord Viscount, don't..." The woman was held in Lanny's arms, and Benny began to move. The woman let out cooing screams from time to time, but Lanny didn't see this charming woman.
There was an inexplicable light flashing in his eyes.
…
After Gervais and others discussed the strategy, Gervais went to the kitchen to start making his wine and minced garlic.
When Thomas knew that Gervais was going to the kitchen to get some wine and grilled oysters, he objected.
He kept nagging in Gervais's ear, saying that as a noble he was not allowed to enter the kitchen, let alone doing things that only servants could do, which would undermine the dignity of Baron Gervais.
Gervais couldn't stand it anymore, so he finally resorted to his trump card. Gervais told Thomas that he had already planned to make Thomas the castle steward. If Thomas continued to be wordy, he would give up the idea.
After Thomas heard this, he immediately shut up without saying a word, and never said another word. He just helped Gervais wash the grapes and wash the pottery jar very diligently.
Thomas' nagging was solved by Gervais, but Jimmy's situation Gervais could not solve.
When Gervais walked into the kitchen, Jimmy was very happy, thinking that the Baron was here to inspect the work, but when Gervais said that he wanted to make wine and charcoal-grilled oysters that Roush had never heard of,
, Jimmy's face immediately dropped, just like an eggplant that had been beaten by frost, it suddenly withered.
Looking at Jimmy who was about to cry without tears, Gervais originally explained a few words, telling Jimmy that these were all experiments and would be handed over to him when the experiment was completed.
But Jimmy couldn't listen at all. In the end, Gervais could only use a stern tone to tell Jimmy to pay attention to every step and not to be distracted.
The reason why Gervais wanted to do it himself instead of teaching Jimmy to do it was because he was afraid that if he didn't do it himself, if he made something wrong, he would not be able to find the reason.
Especially when it comes to wine, he only talks about it on paper, so for his own gold coin business, Gervais had to work in the kitchen under the guise of a noble lord.
Fortunately, with the help of Thomas and Jimmy, the work of making wine was quickly completed. All the crushed grapes and the required sugar and other ingredients were put into the clay pot. After half the tank was filled, Gervais sealed the clay pot.
stand up.
The next step is to make garlic roasted oysters. This is much simpler. Gervais is quite experienced. When he was on Earth, he often cooked and ate them at home alone. Although the seasonings in this world are different from those on Earth, as an Earl of Castle
When Jimmy came out, he had already prepared a lot of seasonings from this world. Gervais tasted them one by one and picked out similar ingredients.
After having the appropriate ingredients, Gervais quickly prepared the minced garlic.
"Thomas, has the grill been set up?" When Gervais came to the vestibule, Thomas was working with Johnny in the vestibule. Another servant had been taking care of Ike, so now Thomas could only use Johnny
.
When Thomas saw his master coming out, he immediately came to Gervais in a flattering manner and led him to the center of the vestibule.
"Sir, it's been set up. Check to see if it's the same as you said." Thomas pointed to a small platform in front of him as if he was offering a treasure.
"Not bad, Thomas." Gervais looked closer and saw that a small platform had been set up in the open space. The platform was just at the height of a person's waist, which was similar to the grills of those barbecue stalls in his previous life.
It's just that the grill in front of you is made of bricks, and the iron bars of the grill are also made of the castle's window fence.
Because of what happened last night, Thomas went to the town today and asked a blacksmith to hammer a lot of iron bars. He replaced all the window fences in the castle and left a lot of iron bars. So under Gervais's instructions, he brought some iron bars.
Roots for making grills.
"Now let me show you my unique secret method!" After saying that, Gervais took the cleaned oysters from Jimmy's hand and started roasting them.
"What are you doing, Lord Baron?"
"I don't know. It seems like you are baking something?"
"Wow, it smells so good. Can you smell it? What does it smell like? I've never smelled it before."
"Bah, of course you haven't smelled it. Didn't you see that the Baron did it himself? I guess that thing is very precious, and the Baron is reluctant to let Chef Jimmy make it."
"It smells so good. That's what I think when I smell it. I don't know how it tastes. It would be great if I could take a bite!"
"Hush, do you want to die? Can we think about the Baron's things? If others hear it and let the Baron know, you will be sent to the gallows."
Gervais was concentrating on roasting his oysters. The oil droplets sliding off the oysters, mixed with various spices, were instantly evaporated by the charcoal fire, and the faint smoke was blown everywhere by the breeze. Several guards standing on the castle
After smelling it, everyone drooled and began to look at Gervais's location frequently.
"Jimmy, do you see clearly? The heat is controlled well, and these spices should be put in last, so that it is delicious and beautiful." After Gervais finished the last step, he asked Jimmy, who was watching intently beside him.
"Sir, you see clearly." At first, Jimmy was full of fear and disappointment, because he felt that Lord Gervais didn't like the food he cooked, so he went to the kitchen to cook. He might be about to be killed.
Drive out of the castle.
After all, no nobleman can cook in person, and some noblemen have never even been to the kitchen.
But when Gervais made the 'weed', Jimmy felt that Sir Gervais might be really doing some experiments. After all, even if the 'weed' is cooked with spices, people will not eat it.
.
But now, Jimmy's outlook on life is a little unsafe. Although he is just putting 'weeds' and shells together to bake, as a cook, Jimmy can smell the 'weeds' and shells in front of him.
The combination must taste good, and even he had the urge to take a bite right away. While watching Gervais baking, he had swallowed his saliva countless times.
"Very good, let's grill some oysters." Gervais took the ten oysters he had grilled, sat on the chair that had been prepared next to him, and motioned to Jimmy to stand in front of the grill and start grilling.
Jimmy didn't flinch. He was also very interested in the grilled oysters made by his Lord Baron, so he started grilling them in the same order as he had just watched Gervais.
Jimmy is indeed a professional cook. Although it is his first time to bake oysters, his control of the heat and the method of spreading ingredients are countless times more professional than Gervais.
Gervais was a little ashamed. He felt that it was Li Gui who met Li Kui. He was also the one who was so arrogant in teaching him just now. It turned out that he was the one who was beaten. Since Jimmy was so high, Gervais also
I stopped paying attention and started eating the oysters baked in my own hands.
"Oh, a long-lost taste." Gervais picked up an oyster and began to taste it. The first bite made Gervais feel like he was in another world.
