Chapter 68: The Arms Trade (Part II)

"Your Highness, you're okay this time! If something happens, I really don't know what to do. Marquis Harlan let out a long sigh and confided in his heart.

"What he said is true, otherwise he might not be able to keep his fief and title. Carolon said in Murphy's heart.

"Let's not talk about that, Lord Harun. Murphy smiled, "I've got the best wine for you, we'll get drunk today!"

"Yes, the last time I was in Crescent City, I was already coveting the good wine you brought from the royal capital!" said Marquis Harun with a laugh.

"Please!"

"Please!"

By the time Murphy and the others returned to the castle, the delicacies were already on the long table in the ballroom.

Leopard pigs brought from the mountains of Urso in the east, sold to butchers for dissection, and were bought by the castle's servants and turned into delicious dishes by the imperial chef.

This leopard pig alone made six or seven dishes, and Murphy specially taught the imperial chef to learn how to cook the earth's Chinese food, but unfortunately the seasoning was incomplete, and there was no way to replicate it perfectly.

For example, the pork knuckle in the sauce of fragrant and fresh rice, wash the pork knuckle and put it in the pot, add spices and wine to boil in cold water, then take out the pork knuckle and throw it into the wok, which has been prepared and fry until it turns yellow, and then throws it into the cooking pot again after adding various seasonings and spices to boil over high heat, and then turn to low heat and cook for a full three hours before taking it out, drizzling the sauce that has already been adjusted, and the aroma of the meat mixed with the fragrance of spices fills the whole room.

After the pork knuckle in sauce was prepared, the imperial chef here began to prepare Murphy's favorite braised pork.

Take out the precious sugar cubes brought from the royal capital, mix the oil and boil the sugar in the pot over low heat, then add the pork belly that has been blanched by the servants, stir-fry it repeatedly, then add some wine and salt and stir-fry evenly, then heat the water and simmer for 50 minutes, then turn to high heat to collect the juice, and a large pot of braised pork full of fresh fragrance will come out of the pot.

Coupled with other dishes, the table was full of earth delicacies that these people from other worlds had never seen, and everyone who ate it was full of oil and addicted!

Of course, except for Carolon, because the lich has no sense of smell and taste, the food he has eaten will fall directly out of the gap in the skeleton, and in order not to stain his white bones, he does not move a single bite of the more than thirty dishes on the table.

"Your Highness, the skill of this chef under your command is truly amazing, I have never eaten such a delicious meal. ”

Marquis Harun carried a large pork knuckle in his hand, stuffed with braised pork in his mouth, and a bowl of fresh fish soup in front of him.

Swallow the delicious taste in your mouth, take a bite of the fish soup, and then take a bite of the elbow covered in sauce, how happy!

"These chefs under me are the imperial chefs brought by the royal capital, and their pursuit of food can be described as extremely picky, and the craftsmanship is naturally nothing to say!"

Murphy took a pair of wooden chopsticks that he had polished by himself, picked up a piece of braised pork and ate it into his mouth, the fat meat was fat but not greasy, the mouth melted, the lean meat was tender but not firewood, the meat skin was full of elasticity, and the layering was clear in one bite.

Carolon hugged his shoulders and looked coldly at the two people in front of him who were enjoying the opening of their eyes and blowing each other, and tried to pick up a fork and insert a piece of braised pork into his mouth, but the piece of meat fell directly down his spine to the ground, and he put the fork down in anger.

After a gust of wind and clouds, several of the nobles and caravan leaders who participated in the banquet collapsed on their chairs with their left hands on their stomachs, and their right hands were still holding the utensils and unwilling to put them down.

Murphy poured himself a glass of mellow sweet milk, looked at the embarrassed people in front of him, and couldn't help laughing, thinking that when he tasted it for the first time in this other world, he didn't have to be so strong with these people.

"Since everyone has eaten almost enough, why don't you rest here?" said Murphy, taking the last sip of milk, as he stood up.

"The inn and guest house are currently being maintained, so I have arranged accommodation for everyone in the castle, providing heating and wine, and I ask for your forgiveness for any inattentive hospitality. ”

"Your Highness is gracious!"

"We're all rough people, we sleep the same everywhere!"

"Thank you, Your Highness, for staying overnight. ”

As soon as Murphy's words fell, everyone below hurriedly stood up and saluted.

Murphy nodded, and went back to his study first, with the others led the way with their own servants.

Murphy returned to the study, where a plate of fried potato strips and a plate of beef in sauce were already on the table, accompanied by a pot of cold bamboo tea.

There is also tea in this world, but this kind of bamboo tea, there is a tea bamboo forest under the city wall in the east of the city, every time winter goes to spring, it will glow with a slight fluorescence, and it is time to harvest.

It's just that ordinary farm tools and machetes can't hurt the bamboo, only the knife that has been enchanted or the war knife that is attached to the fighting spirit can cut it off, and therefore, this kind of bamboo tea is not something that ordinary people can drink, and the price of two gold naso per kilogram determines that it is a drink that only rich nobles and transcendents can afford.

But if it's a coincidence, Remlos Fort happens to produce this kind of bamboo tea, so Murphy can naturally drink it for free.

"Tuk tuk. ”

A knock on the door woke up Murphy, who was thinking about the New Deal implementation plan and the trade agreement plan.

"Please come in!"

The door opened, and Marquis Harlan, led by Philip, entered along with the three fathers and sons of Alsace, as well as Marshall.

"Everyone, please take a seat!"

After all, it was a potential customer, and Murphy got up to welcome.

"Your Highness is polite, I don't know what the matter is to summon me?"

Marquis Harlan sat on the row of sofas across from Murphy and took a sip of herbal bamboo tea.

"Eh, don't say it, your chair is really comfortable!" Marquis Harlan felt.

"If you like, I can have someone call you one. Murphy smiled and sat down in his armchair.

"That's a deal!" Marquis Harlan replied with a smile as he stretched his body.

"Alright, let's get down to business. Murphy spread his hands on the table, "I asked you to come here, I have a business I want to do, and I happen to have a batch of good things in my hands." ”

"Business?"

Hearing this word, the reactions of the people below were mixed.

The Marquis of Harlan was puzzled, a little puzzled about what Remlos Castle, which was suffering from poverty and war, could come up with to do business.

The joy on the faces of the Alsace father and son could not be hidden, and the posture looked bound to win the deal, establish a long-term partnership and even get the exclusive right to sell it.

The corners of Marshall's mouth twitched, he knew everything, and seeing the reaction of the Alsace father and son, he had already deduced how much the obsolete arquebuses would bring to Remloth Castle.

Murphy took in everyone's reactions, and secretly calculated in his heart.

"I wonder what His Highness plans to sell?" Marquis Harlan asked in a voice after he couldn't bear the thought in his heart.

Murphy smiled slightly, and his smile was full of the insidiousness of the capitalists.

"I wonder if you know our newest specialty, the arquebus?"
