Chapter 0888: Eat hot pot at the castle

Ye Qiu, Zhou Wenting, and Louise went out from the castle's restaurant after breakfast.

When she went outside, the sky was clear and the sun was shining, but when a gust of wind blew, Zhou Wenting still felt a little cold.

On the contrary, Zhou Wenting, who was wearing a skirt, and Ye Qiu, who was wearing a summer dress, did not have anything at all, but felt very comfortable.

As he had gone out of the castle and had not gone far along the vineyard, he saw that Eugène steward had returned in his Citroën car.

"Ye Shao, I have already informed the grape picking machine company that they should arrive soon, and just now I also went to a nearby town to buy some fresh meat and vegetables, as well as an induction cooker to make hot pot. ”

"Not bad. ”

Ye Qiu said.

He liked the diligent steward of Eugène.

After Ou Ren's housekeeper asked the maid aunt to come out and bring the fresh meat and vegetables back to the kitchen, not long after, Ye Qiu had already seen two very large trucks driving over.

When Ye Qiu and Ou Ren Steward passed, they knew that this was the picking machine.

"Hello, we are a machine picking company. ”

A middle-aged man picking a suit got out of the truck.

With a high nose, blonde hair, a big face, and a tall and chubby body, he looks like a standard Frenchman at first glance.

"Hello, I'm Ou Ren, the housekeeper here, and this is my master, Viscount Ye Qiu!"

Eren steward and the person in charge of the machine picking company introduced.

The Frenchman was surprised, but it soon occurred to him that many of the wine estates in Boer were now being bought by the rich Chinese.

If the young man in front of him is Chinese, he is not surprised at all, not to mention, the young man in front of him is very likely to be Chinese?

Ye Qiu nodded.

The two big trucks stopped there, and then on the big trucks, five picking machines came down from them.

According to the speed of these picking machines, there are more than 200,000 square meters of manor here, nearly three or four hundred acres of fields, at the speed of these machines, one machine can pick ten acres a day and night, and ten machines can pick a hundred acres of fields, and it takes about three or four days to complete the picking here.

Of course, this is similar to before, when Earl Charles also asked people to drive machines to pick them.

After talking to the person in charge of the picking machine, the construction began.

The grapes in this vineyard, Ye Qiu had already seen them last time, they were big, round, and still black and purple, but these grapes were sour and astringent, and they were originally used to make wine, not to be eaten as fruits.

Moreover, these grapes are much more expensive here than the grapes that are sold as fruit outside.

After those machines began to pick there, Ou Ren steward, Ye Qiu, Zhou Wenting, Louise, looked at it for a while, and they were not interested, these machines were very fast and efficient, directly from the rows of grape vines, and those grapes fell into the picking machine.

Of course, the vines, the rotten grapes, some not very ripe grapes will have to be pulled out again, which requires a lot of work, and these can only be selected by hand, without machines.

However, in the case of so many grapes now, these skilled labors need to be found again by the steward of Eugène.

"Ye Shao, why don't you borrow some of the staff from Earl Charlie first, they are more skilled?"

"I'm embarrassed to owe Earl Charles a favor!"

Ye Qiu said.

He didn't want to owe favors to anyone else, especially this Earl Charles, although he saved the other party's life, but he had already paid it off through the castle and the manor.

"We can pay him!"

"That's fine, you put Louise in touch with Earl Charlie, and pay his staff at the market price. ”

These picked grapes must not be delayed, they need to be selected as soon as possible, and then made according to Ye Qiu's secret recipe for making wine.

After Eugène and Louise went to the side and said, Louise glanced at Ye Qiu, and then took out her mobile phone to call Count Charlie.

Actually, Count Charles is very strange, why does Ye Qiu make his own wine?

Isn't the wine in his house tasty?

Count Charles didn't know, but every time Ye Qiu gave him an unexpected feeling. However, compared to Ye Qiu's mysterious medical skills, anything else was just an inhuman eye.

It was precisely because of this that Count Charles knew that Ye Qiu was too important to his mysterious religion.

"I'll send him those employees, but I won't take his money, just ask him to bring me a few bottles of wine when he arrives. ”

Earl Charles said.

He really didn't believe that the red wine brewed by Ye Qiu himself was even better than the Earl Grey red wine brewed by his family. After all, he's been around for hundreds of years.

Louise and Count Charles hung up the phone, came back to look at Ye Qiu and said, "I just told Count Charlie, he said he doesn't want your money, just send him a few bottles of wine then!"

"This old man is amazing!"

Ye Qiu said.

Louise and Steward Ou Ren didn't understand the meaning of what Ye Qiu said.

At ten o'clock in the morning, Ye Qiu did not stay outside anymore, and the picking machines continued to pick, and now a large number of grapes were already being picked and sent to the vats of the winery behind the castle.

Now that these things are being dealt with, there is naturally no need for Ye Qiu to go out and see.

Back in the castle's kitchen, the fresh meat dishes that Eugène had just bought back were beef, mutton, and chicken.

In China, the price of beef is relatively expensive, but in Europe and the United States, the price of beef is very ordinary, and the price of pork in China may be about the same, almost everyone can afford to eat, but most of them are made of steak.

Now Ye Qiu was in the kitchen, and after instructing the two middle-aged maids and aunts how to cut these dishes, Ye Qiu made the sauce.

Then after boiling the chicken soup base, you can also sit down and eat hot pot.

It was cold outside, but, inside the castle, there was heating, and it was very comfortable to eat hot pot.

When she was in Chinatown, Louise had eaten twice with Ye Qiu, and she thought it was still very good, but it was the first time she ate hot pot like now.

"Wouldn't it taste good?"

Louise asked.

However, Zhou Wenting is completely different, she prefers to eat these compared to those ordinary French dishes, especially in winter, when she feels warm and comfortable.

"You know when you smell it?"

The sauce prepared by Ye Qiu did not use foie gras, caviar, and matsutake mushrooms, but used very ordinary chili peppers, which smelled very good.

"The housekeeper has also worked hard all morning, go and ask him to come in and eat together!"

Ye Qiu asked a maid aunt to call Ou Ren's housekeeper over to eat together, and he still had something for Ou Ren's housekeeper to do.
