Not only did the beastmen's milk wine not use distillation technology, but the human's fruit wine also didn't use distillation technology. This made Zhao Hai very puzzled. Another point was that the Ark Continent's wine was generally fruit wine, while the beastmen's wine was milk wine. There was no grain wine at all, which also made Zhao Hai very puzzled.
The beastmen were very fond of wine, and this was related to their living environment. They were very cold in the winter, and the other three seasons weren't any better. They had to go out every day to graze, and the weather was very changeable. Sometimes a good bag of wine could save a life.
It was because of this that the beastmen not only liked wine, but also preferred strong wine. However, there wasn't any strong wine on the continent, and they could make their own milk wine, so they didn't need to buy it. Therefore, they still mainly relied on milk wine.
When Zhao Hai was on Earth, he would also drink some wine, but most of it was beer or white wine. He rarely drank fruit wine, so he couldn't tell if it was good or bad. But for him, white wine was very good. It had high alcohol content, and if it was brewed well, it wouldn't go to the head, and it wouldn't hurt at all the next day. He liked it very much.
But in the Ark Continent, he could only drink a little fruit wine, and fruit wine that hadn't been distilled. To be honest, the taste wasn't very good.
Therefore, Zhao Hai had long wanted to make wine, but he couldn't. Green and the others also couldn't. Although Laura's subordinates had a lot of ability, they couldn't make wine. If they just followed the method written in the book, they wouldn't be able to make any good wine. Therefore, Zhao Hai hadn't experimented with making wine.
But now he had Alaes and the others. Although Alaes and the others couldn't make grain wine, they could still make milk wine, which was enough. Don't forget, in Zhao Hai's ranch, cows could be bought, and their milk production was astonishing.
Moreover, Zhao Hai now wanted to experiment and see if it was possible to make grain wine. Now that the space was producing more and more grains, if he released all of them, the impact on the Beastman Prairie's grain market would be too big, and it would certainly attract everyone's attention. When the time came, all the countries on the continent would investigate together, but they simply couldn't find him. At that time, his troubles would be even bigger. Therefore, he wanted to turn these grains into another form of commodity, and wine was undoubtedly the best choice.
No matter if it was bamboo rice or corn, they were all excellent materials for making wine. Once they were made into white wine, after some simple distillation, they would be able to produce a white wine with 20% alcohol content. In the Ark Continent, this kind of wine could be considered as a high quality wine, the beastmen would certainly like it.
Therefore, making wine was also put on Zhao Hai's agenda, but there were still a lot of difficulties. They were still mainly making milk wine, and Zhao Hai still wanted to try the milk wine first.
Now, Zhao Hai had 200 cows and 1000 argali in his space. So if he wanted milk, milk, and wool, he could really produce milk wine and milk products. He could also process wool products, unlike before, when he could only sell rabbit meat in exchange for gold coins.
However, these things would take a long time to prepare, so Zhao Hai wasn't in a hurry. In any case, there was still time, so they could take their time.
Ten days, Zhao Hai would only need four days to get there. This was because the carriages wouldn't stop for a moment, and the undead wouldn't feel tired or bored, so he just let them go.
On the other hand, the scaled wildebeests and windchaser horses weren't suitable for the ox carriages of the beastmen. In the end, Zhao Hai steeled his heart and turned the oxen pulling the carriages into undead. This way, the oxen would be able to travel day and night without stopping.
To be honest, turning so many oxen into undead made Zhao Hai's heart ache. Even if these oxen were to be sold on the continent, they would still be able to make a lot of money. Unfortunately, they didn't have any way to sell these oxen.
In the next few days, Zhao Hai released the blood hawks to see if there were any small tribes nearby. If there were, they would try to avoid them as much as possible. They didn't want to disturb the small tribes, because it would waste time.
Right now, what Wales needed the most was information about West Wonder King. Therefore, Zhao Hai didn't want to waste too much time on these small tribes, so he decided to bypass them.
Although Zhao Hai's decision might make West Wonder King feel strange, because no matter which direction they went to, they would still encounter a lot of small tribes. The grains on Zhao Hai's carriages should have already been sold out, so it was impossible to bring them to West Wonder King's main camp. For a large tribe like West Wonder King, if they wanted to buy grains, they would have their own relatively fixed grain merchants. When those grain merchants deliver grains to them, they would put their tribe's battle flag on their carriages, representing that the grains were specially delivered to them to ensure their safety on the road.
For people like Zhao Hai who didn't cooperate with a large tribe, their grains would usually be bought or robbed by small tribes, so it was impossible to bring them to a large tribe's territory.
On the prairie, each big tribe's campsite was like a market. Every month, there would be a day when human merchants would trade with small tribes in the big tribes' campsites. Usually, small tribes would rely on their luck. If they met a human merchant, they would be able to buy what they wanted. If they didn't, they could only wait until the trading day to buy what they wanted from the big tribes' campsites.
West Wonder King's camp couldn't be considered a large beastman camp, but it could still be considered a medium sized camp. Therefore, there was also a market, but it was only held once every two months.
As a result, it was even more difficult for the small tribes living around West Wonder King's camp to buy things. It was precisely because of this that their desire to buy was very strong. Like Zhao Hai's carriages, if they weren't specifically transporting grains to a large tribe, then it would be impossible to safely transport them to West Wonder King's camp. Either they would be bought or robbed.
However, Zhao Hai had already prepared a speech. He could say that he heard that there was a large tribe here, so he didn't sell the grains, but instead prepared to take them to West Wonder King as a sample.
After four days of non-stop travel, Zhao Hai's group finally arrived at West Wonder King's camp. Zhao Hai and Laura also returned to the prairie from Iron Mountain Fort.
Once they arrived at the prairie, Zhao Hai immediately opened the carriage door of Laura's carriage. Looking at the prairie outside, he suddenly smiled and said, "I feel like we haven't been back for a long time. I suddenly feel that the prairie has become a lot more beautiful. "
Laura and the others smiled. In the past few days, the group had been busy with the factories in Iron Mountain Fort. Now that the temperature of the Black Wasteland had dropped, they couldn't plant anything anymore. Therefore, they decided to focus their energy on the factories instead.
However, they were still too few, so it was impossible to set up all of these factories. Originally, Zhao Hai wanted to set up a processing factory for battle rations, but after thinking about it, even if they were able to process battle rations, it would be impossible to sell them. The beastmen wouldn't buy them, and they hadn't opened the human market yet. Right now, they could only make wool products, so they didn't need to slaughter sheep.
But now, they had a better choice, milk wine. Although the beastmen also made milk wine, they generally made goat milk wine. Compared to Zhao Hai's milk wine, it simply couldn't be compared. Most importantly, his milk wine was distilled, so the taste would definitely be better than the beastmen's milk wine.
Of course, in Zhao Hai's view, this milk wine was only a low-end product, but it could still be exchanged for a lot of good things from the beastmen. After all, the beastmen also liked to drink good milk wine.
The convoy quickly entered the range of West Wonder King's camp. From here, they could already see West Wonder King's camp. The camp was really big, at a glance, it was full of white round tents. In the middle, there were many people moving about. Zhao Hai estimated that the entire camp had no less than a hundred thousand people.
At this time, a group of cavalry rushed out of the camp, their hooves rumbled, and soon arrived in front of Zhao Hai's convoy. Probably because they saw the two friendship flags on Zhao Hai's carriage, the cavalry slowly slowed down and suspiciously looked at Zhao Hai's group.
Zhao Hai quickly got out of the carriage and bowed to the cavalry, "Respected warrior, hello, we are human merchants. May I ask if this is the Fighting Bull West Wonder King's camp?"
Seeing Zhao Hai being so polite, the Fighting Bull cavalry quickly replied, "Hello, human friend, this is indeed the West Wonder King's camp. What business do you have with us?"
Zhao Hai quickly replied, "Respected warrior, I am a merchant. Naturally, I came here to trade with West Wonder King. Moreover, it's a very good deal."
The cavalry didn't find it strange, from time to time, there would be human merchants coming to their camp to trade, so it wasn't a big deal. He looked at Zhao Hai's carriage and said, "Human friend, of course we welcome you to trade, but it seems like you don't have a lot of food?"
Zhao Hai quickly smiled and said, "Respected warrior, please rest assured, these are only samples. As long as you agree to the trade, my food will continue to be delivered."
The cavalry nodded and said, "Good, human friend, please come with me." Then he led Zhao Hai's group into the camp.
In order to avoid causing misunderstandings, Zhao Hai had already collected the Giant-horned Bull's undead. Now his convoy didn't have any undead beastmen, it looked like an ordinary human caravan.
