On the eve of departure.
Baron Liszt deliberately went to the brewery in the workshop area. The three brewers, Franck Distillers, Berding, and Huntela, had been working on distilling liquor for more than a month.
The results had never been delivered to the castle.
"So, for such a long time, besides continuing to brew beer, rice wine, and fruit wine, you still haven't been able to brew liquor?"
He asked with an unkind expression.
Franck Distillers, the brewer with the same name as Levis's tutor Franck, was the person in charge of the brewery. He replied awkwardly: "Sir, we have figured out the method and principle of distillation, but the distilled liquor does not seem to have the taste of liquor."
"Take out the liquor you brewed."
Soon, the liquor they distilled was presented in front of Liszt.
Franck explained: "According to the method you provided, Sir Lord, we found that during the distillation process, the liquor in the fermented liquor will first evaporate, and the rest is water. After repeated distillation, liquor can be obtained. However, we have distilled it many times, and there will always be a foul, sour, astringent, and salty taste. "
Liszt dipped it in a little liquor and tasted it.
Although he did not like to drink liquor, but it was not like he had never drunk the gin in the castle. Compared to the gin, the liquor brewed in the Flower Town tasted really bad and strange. He could distinguish some foul and sour taste, and the aroma of the liquor was very light, and the alcohol content was not high.
"You distilled it repeatedly, and you got this kind of liquor?"
"There is a stronger liquor, but it may … may not be liquor anymore."
"Take it out."
Soon, a stronger liquor was served. Liszt only took a small sip and almost choked. Not to mention the spicy taste, there was also a strong stench and a rotten smell.
This was definitely a problem in the fermentation process or distillation process.
Seeing Liszt's reaction, Franck and the other two stood aside uneasily. They should feel ashamed. Liquor distillation was not a difficult problem, but with the ideas provided by Liszt, after more than a month of research, there was still no qualified liquor.
"What an amazing work efficiency!"
There was a stuffy feeling in his stomach, but he could not vent it.
The three people in front of him were the only three winemakers in the Flower Town.
If they were really talented, they would not have been sent to the Flower Town. They were probably leftover craftsmen, so they could not be counted on.
After venting, Liszt restrained his anger. "Forget it, you guys continue to improve the craft … First, fill a few bottles of wine with low alcohol strength. I want to take them away."
In the end, the three of them were not punished.
At the very least, the distilled liquor had already been distilled. Sooner or later, he would be able to find a way to remove the strange smell.
Brewing the specialty flower wine of Flower Town.
Liszt asked Thomas to carry the liquor back to the castle. He still intended to bring the semi-finished liquor to Tulip Castle.
However, he wasn't treating it as a gift. Instead, he was trying to tempt Levis.
With the existence of the liquor business, which was destined to make huge profits, he would definitely be treated like a top-notch guest on this trip to Tulip Castle. He would be able to take away a batch of ironware and iron ore.
…
The next morning.
The servants were busy carrying the gifts from Flower Town to the carriage.
Randy and Russell, with their retainer Knight, were warming up. They had decided to follow Liszt to Coral City. Today's Liszt was no longer ordinary. He did not go out with a show of extravagance, which was not worthy of his identity.
Thomas, the manservant, was holding Dosen. Intermediate World of Warcraft was one of Liszt's extravagances.
Another manservant, Tom, was holding a beautiful jade box, in which the thorn sprite, Ella, was sleeping. Its birth was destined to be the focus of attention. The messenger Knight clearly mentioned that the Count wanted Liszt to take Ella to Tulip Castle to show him the new member of the Tulip family.
The sprite, for the aristocracy, was a member of the family.
Gort also arrived early. Unfortunately, this time there was nothing for him to do. Liszt asked him to stay in Flower Town. He was very regretful that he didn't have the opportunity to participate in the gorgeous feast, but what he needed to worry about was far more serious than not being able to participate in the feast. His wife and children were coming to Flower Town to celebrate this year's New Year's Day.
His little lover, Freya, and the illegitimate child in her belly, would be exposed.
The sun rose in the east.
Flower Town, wrapped in ice and snow, became extraordinarily bright.
"Mr. Carter, I do not know how many days I will be staying in the Tulip Castle. I will leave the castle to you." Liszt was dressed appropriately in frac abbié, which made him look particularly exuberant.
"Master, please rest assured."
Carter led the rest of the servants and watched Liszt leave.
Turning over, Liszt rode Blackdragon and walked to the front of the procession. Behind him, Paris, who had a greatsword on her back and had changed into a new set of leather armor, followed on a horse with a veil over her face. She was a guard, so on this occasion, she naturally had to protect Li Si's safety.
The procession set off in a grandiose manner.
On the road from Flower Town to Thorns Ridge, the road was very easy to walk on. It was a gravel road, and the snow was shoveled away by the people organized by the town. But after leaving Flower Town, it became a muddy road. The contrast between before and after was very obvious.
Fortunately, everyone was either on horseback or in carriages. Their speed was still very fast.
Appreciating the snowy scenery along the way, apart from Flower Town, the snow was the thickest. After leaving North Valley City and entering the boundary of Yulin City, there was not much snow, only a muddy road.
Around ten in the morning.
When the procession entered Coral City, the faint stench had already reached Liszt. Fortunately, he was prepared and pinned a large amount of dried Tulip flowers to his chest.
This was a red Tulip, and it smelled very fragrant.
In Coral City, fresh and dried Tulip flowers were very popular. Even if you lived in Coral City all year round, you would still not be used to the smell all day long.
Fortunately, the procession was just passing by, and went straight to Tulip Castle.
The majestic Tulip Castle was still surrounded by a sea of flowers. The colorful Tulip was fluttering in the cold wind. On the southern hillside, a large purple-black Tulip could be seen. It was the expanded magic ingredient Black Tulip, which had occupied the largest area of the sea of flowers.
The Tulip sprite's fragrant cordyceps was in the middle of this black Tulip.
Rising along the hillside, the Tulip Castle Knight Guard soon came to greet the procession. Until the procession was led to the gate of Tulip Castle, the castle servants received them.
The butler Louis already needed to walk with a cane.
But every time the count's children returned to the castle, he would personally greet them at the gate. For him, these young Tulip were children that he had personally watched grow up.
"Every day when I see the sun rise, I think of the lord's children, rising like red suns. But the happiest thing is to see you return to the castle like tired birds returning to their nest. "The old man's words were like a poem, with a variety of metaphors and rhetoric.
