Chapter 122: Monopolized Technology

"Okay, buy, buy, buy! How many more, let all the males in your family send it, just this door, don't be mistaken. Ask him for money. ”

Looking at Parker's messy pants, Samuel only felt a pain in the corners of his forehead, he could now foresee that in the next few days, Parker would be crazy about cleaning everywhere, hmm, should he consider going out and hiding for a few days?

"Thank you, uncle!" Luna didn't understand her uncle's plight at all, and immediately burst into joy, and raised her paw to help Parker pat her soiled pants, but Parker dodged away very quickly.

Seeing that the female selling beetroot was leaving in a hurry, Luna did not plan to return to the castle at this time, and greeted Lia directly, and slipped back to Samuel's house and headed straight for the kitchen.

"Why did Your Highness come here?" said Lia, who struggled to carry the basket of beets that she had received from Parker according to Luna's instructions in one hand, and the skirt in the other, chased in, and looked at the kitchen girls who were not chasing her and not rushing her.

"What are you supposed to do, just when I don't exist. Liya, wash the contents of the basket and cut a small piece for me to taste. Luna said with her tail wagging excitedly.

"This sweet root is not tasty this season. Looking at the contents of the basket, Liya hesitated.

"It doesn't matter. You cut a piece, I'll taste it first, and we'll talk about the rest. ”

Lea had no choice but to do as Luna had said, and washed a beetroot the size of her two fists, slashed it with a knife, chopped off a small piece, and put it in Luna's mouth.

"Well, it's not tasty. Luna only chewed it twice, and then frowned, this thing was a little different from the beet head she had eaten, it was very woody, some of it tasted like sugar cane, and even after chewing, it was more broken than bagasse, and there was almost no merit except for the sweet juice and a little throat.

No wonder her uncle was so disgusted just now......

But isn't this the best raw material for sugar?

"Your Highness is about to spit it out, you can't swallow it, it will hurt your throat!" Ria hurriedly put her hand to Luna's mouth.

Luna obediently spat out the strange beetroot.

"Wash it, chop it up, boil it in water, and strain out the dross. Well, I'm going to drink water, and I'll call me when I'm done. Luna, who felt that her throat and eyes were sticky, briefly explained a few words, and ran out to find water to drink.

Although this thing was not delicious at all, the sweetness was far beyond Luna's expectations, and she felt like she had eaten a large spoonful of sugar in just that small bite.

"Why? I know if they are not delicious? Tomorrow they will be delivered, and I will send them to the castle for you, and you can watch them survive the winter!"

Looking at Luna, who was desperately watering, Samuel, who was sitting on the sofa, snorted.

"Well, then you don't have to buy sugar for this winter in the castle. Luna tilted her head to look at her uncle, nodded earnestly, and continued to pour water with her head down.

"Do you really think that sweet makes sugar? All fruits are sweet. Little one, sugar-producing sweet trees are only found in the Central Empire. That sweet root is sweet, but the castle doesn't have the technology to make sugar!"

Aren't everyone else stupid and haven't thought of making sugar from sweet things?

Samuel looked at Luna with a bit of a smile, not knowing how to explain to his whimsical little niece that the Central Empire had a monopoly on sugar technology.

"What kind of technology do you want?" Luna, although she didn't know how to float the color off the sugar, and she only had theoretical knowledge, she didn't dare to try it blindly, for fear that she would eat herself, but wouldn't the sugar be finished?

It's all about eating, isn't it the difference between being good-looking and not good-looking?

Which is so complicated?

"I don't know~"

Samuel spread his hands, and he had people steal the sweet trees, but they all died after a winter.

He also had people steal the method of making sugar, but the people he sent didn't even get close to the place where the sugar was made, and he was almost tracked down by the people of the Central Empire, for which he was scolded by Luna's father.

"Then you'll just wait and see~" Luna, who finally felt that her throat was more comfortable, exhaled, jumped on the sofa and stood up, well, I drank too much water, and my stomach was swollen......

Just as Luna was about to fall asleep, Leah finally walked out of the kitchen with a sweet and greasy smell.

"Your Highness, everything has been done according to what you said, but there are a lot of sweet roots, and there is not such a big pot in the kitchen, so I made it my own and only made half of it. ”

"Half is half. Luna had no objection to the amount of material, shook her head, shook off the sleepy bug, and took Ria back to the kitchen.

Looking at the beet dregs that had been fished out, Luna asked Leah to help her taste them, and cooked them several times until there was no obvious sweetness in the dregs, and after boiling five large pots of sweet water, it was already ten minutes for lunch.

During the meal, Samuel tells the sleepy-eyed Gotte about Luna's idea of making candy as a joke.

Although Gotte didn't have much hope for this, he didn't hit Luna like Samuel, and encouraged her with inspirational words such as having the courage to try things she didn't understand, and not being afraid to fail.

This made Luna, who didn't understand how much the top leaders of the Snow Wolf Country had failed in the matter of sugar production, and was a little depressed.

For an afternoon, Luna and Lia were almost always in the kitchen boiling sugar water, and Gotte and Samuel went to see it, but they almost all had no hope for the sweet water in the pot.

It wasn't until the sun was about to set that the first pot of sugar water was finally boiled into a viscous dark brown syrup by the cook, and with the cook's exclamation, Gotte and Samuel, who rushed into the kitchen, took the matter seriously.

"Hot, teacher, hot!" Luna exclaimed as she looked at Gotte, who was about to dip her hand into the syrup, but it was still too late, and her teacher had already bared her teeth and quickly inserted her hand pouring hot syrup into her mouth.

The tips of his fingers hurt hotly, but the smile on Gou Te's face was particularly dazzling.

"Today's incident, you have shut your mouth for me. If you let me know who goes out and talks nonsense, or does something I don't want to see, then the whole family will go to the border city to repair the city walls!"

Samuel said to all the cooks in the kitchen almost violently the moment Goite laughed.

The cooks were frightened by the suddenly serious and somewhat scary host, but they all knew what kind of price the sugar outside was now fried by those unscrupulous merchants.

And as Samuel's words fell, Parker, who appeared with someone at some point, had blocked the two entrances and exits in front and back of the kitchen.

Next, Luna watched with her own eyes, and at the behest of her uncle, two bear beast males nearly three meters tall walked in with a box full of gold coins, and then the cooks lined up on a document drafted by Samuel on the spot and pressed their handprints and received the money.

After that, Luna was instructed by her teacher, who disliked her for walking slowly, to carry her uncle directly into the beast cart and go all the way to the castle.
