Chapter 44 Business Cooperation

The next day, Vidal arrived at William's study with more than one hundred and fifty hoops: "My lord, the hoops you want are ready!" ”

At this time, William was still working on his distilled spirits technique, but there was still no progress.

William took the iron ring and looked at it carefully, it was not bad, it was no different from the nose ring in his memory, in fact, even if there was a difference, he couldn't see that the children in the city had seen the real nose ring.

William put down his work and walked towards the village of Manders with Vidal.

Out of the manor, it was the village of Mendes, and soon they found the village elder, who was assigning tasks to several villagers.

"Your Excellency, you're here!" The village elder saw William and greeted him respectfully.

"Didn't you say before that the cattle were disobedient, I've found a way for you, Vidal, you go and tell the people in the village to come over with the cattle!" William said like Vidal, who was holding a basket of nose rings behind him.

The village chief's expression of surprise and disbelief was all in William's eyes, and he silently said in his heart: "Wait a while, you will know, what is the Celestial Empire technology!" ”

After a while, one after another, the villagers arrived at the village center at the gate of the manor, and after nearly half an hour, more than 700 people all arrived, and Vidal returned behind William with a basket of nose rings.

In order to prevent the villagers behind from hearing it, William said loudly: "Villagers, you said that these cattle were disobedient, and now, I, your master, Baron William, have thought for a long time and finally found a way for you." ”

As soon as the words fell, a whisper suddenly came from below, discussing the credibility of William's words.

William cleared his throat, took the nose ring from Vidal's hand, and continued: "This is the thing that can make the cow obedient!" William said, pointing to the nose ring.

The villagers below didn't say much, but looked at William with numb eyes.

"It seems that the credibility is still insufficient!" William sighed inwardly.

"I know you don't believe me, but I'll make you believe it!" William said.

"Go, bring a cow!" William commanded Vidal behind him.

When the ox was led to William, he said to the villagers, "Come on a few people, keep it under control!" ”

After seven or eight men held the ox firmly, William began to act, and in reality he burned an iron rod, then wrapped several layers of protection, picked it up, and then grabbed the cow's head, and stabbed the red-hot iron rod between the nostrils of the cow.

"Woohoo!" There was a scorching sound, and the cow let out a heart-rending wail, and its nostrils burned through.

The villagers didn't know what William was doing, could it be that he was idle and had nothing to do to abuse the cows? But it has nothing to do with taming the bull.

William held down the swaying bull's head, opened the iron ring that could be broken, and then stuffed it into the hole between the cow's nostrils and put the rope on.

William ordered everyone to let go of the cow, and then began to lead the cow with a rope, to everyone's surprise, this originally stubborn and wild cow turned out to be like a docile cat at this time, following William's footsteps, looking at this docile appearance, ploughing land is no problem.

At this time, William was full of mystery in everyone's eyes, and it was incredible that the problem that had troubled everyone was solved so easily by William.

Looking at the adoring eyes of the villagers, William struck while the iron was hot: "Villagers! Remember, I am your lord, and I will solve your problems.

Believe me, I will bring you abundance, strength, sickness, poverty, and hunger will be far away from you! As long as you are under my protection and fulfill the accusations against me, you will be extremely happy! ”

"I have decided to reduce the tax rate from 40% to 30% for all the villages under my control! And you don't need to give me half of the prey you get in the forest, you just give me 30%, and I can let you hunt freely in the forest! ”

William began to buy people's hearts and lowered some tax rates, don't underestimate this percentage, and when it develops in the future, this percent will be a lot of wealth.

William returned to the manor amid the cheers of everyone, and what William said today spread throughout his villages, and spread to the surrounding territories at a certain speed, and even in the county, there were sporadic rumors.

"Go and distribute these nose rings to all the villages!" William said to Vidal that this Vidal was a very clever servant, and William was very easy to use.

William returned to his study and continued to study his distilled spirits, but days passed without progress.

Just when he was at a loss, he suddenly thought: why do you have to use grain distillation? Can this thing be distilled directly?

William didn't know this question either, an otaku who knew so many things.

However, William was able to get out of the dead end, taking the ale from the cellar of his domain, putting it in his homemade distillation machine and starting to distill.

William felt that the time was almost up, and extinguished the fire, and when it had cooled, the steam containing a lot of alcohol on the steamer began to flow, down the sloping walls of the pot and into the clay pot below.

William vaguely remembers that it seems that he can't drink it because of the head pot, it seems to be poisonous, right?

No matter if it is poisonous or not, William didn't dare to drink it anyway, Wang Tu didn't succeed in his hegemony, he couldn't die here, he spared his life very much.

It wasn't until the second time the alcohol began to flow out that William dared to take a sip.

As soon as he entered the mouth, a strong spicy dar penetrated his taste buds, he tasted it carefully, it was okay, the degree was definitely not as high as the regular method of distillation, but it was estimated that there were still forty or fifty degrees.

The liquor in the world of the Celestial Empire is more than forty degrees, and William's whole out is estimated to have to go through some blending, but the distilled liquor does consume a lot, three kilograms of malt liquor only makes less than one kilogram of distilled liquor, and the wine rate is three to one, William remembers that the wine rate of the Celestial Empire can generally be six or seven percent, less than one point five to one, in comparison, William is simply weak.

Although the rate of wine production was not satisfactory, William was satisfied, and he was very satisfied that a person who knew nothing could make such wine with his own hands.

There are still two days before the arrival of Mo Mo, William dealt with some things on the territory, mainly to teach cattle to learn better farming, although the cattle are obedient because of the nose ring, but they have not yet learned the technical things, it is estimated that after learning, William's reclamation plan can be officially implemented.

Two days later, when it was time to agree with Moa, William waited in his study to meet him.

Mo Moa took a deep breath outside the village of Menders to ease the tension in his heart.

The village surprised him a lot, and he could clearly see that the people here had more hope for life than any other place, especially the cattle that stumbled a little when they got to work.

Although these cattle are not very good at work, it can be seen that they are very obedient, once they learn how to plow the land, then the village will immediately burst out with great potential, not to mention, listening to the villagers, the other villages are the same, the number of cattle is very large, and they have to be cultivated after sowing, in short, he can feel that the potential of this territory is very huge.

When he arrived at the gate of the manor, he was put under great pressure by two soldiers armed with spears and well-dressed leather armor, apparently two elite soldiers who had come down from the battlefield.

"You're waiting for me here!" He gave an order to the attendant beside him, and then walked through the door.

"I'm a businessman invited by Lord William, and I'm here to have some business cooperation with Lord Baron!" Mooa explained his intentions to the two soldiers.

The two murderous soldiers were the off-duty soldiers that William had trained, and he planned not to use conscripts on the battlefield in the future, because the highly trained soldiers were very useful.

"The Baron has already told us, please come with me!" A soldier opened the gate and walked into the manor with Moa.

"I'll have to send it here, and there's a servant from the Baron to guide you." The guards returned to their posts.

Led by the manservant, Mooah reached the door of William's study, where he knocked on it.

"Come in!" William's voice came through the study, and Moa pushed the door open and walked in respectfully.

"My lord, you said you had something to cooperate with me, what was it?" Mo Moa asked with some trepidation.

"Don't worry, I'll show you something!" William bought a tube and took out a clay pot the size of a human head from under his desk.

"Guess what's in there?" William said.

Without waiting for Moa's answer, William announced the answer: "It's wine, but it's not ordinary wine, you'll know right away!" William looked at Mooa with a disappointed expression on his face and said.

William opened the mouth of the jar sealed with mud, and the smell of wine came out immediately.

"This ...... My lord...... This......! Mo Moa is also a knowledgeable person, and when he smelled the wine, he seemed very excited, and began to stumble when he spoke, and he knew very well how well such a good wine could sell.

"Try it first!" William said with a smile.

William took out a wine glass and brought out the wine from the clay pot, in which it showed a transparent color and overflowed with aroma.
