In fact, it is no wonder that Murray and Old Bill showed such expressions, and even Lin Ye himself was surprised after confirming that the hemp bee fruit was a hop. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Because there are so many of them in the forest, almost everywhere.

It is precisely because it is so common, and because it has a bitter and numb taste, it is not even eaten by horses, so it has not attracted people's attention.

Lin Ye originally thought that it would take a lot of trouble to find the hops, but he didn't expect it to be so rotten that it would take no effort to get there!

And the old Bill didn't expect that this plant, which only wild bees love, was an indispensable part of the winemaking process.

Can this bitter and numb thing really be added to wine?

"Although there are still many problems in the details of the process, including the equipment, the two most critical links are the yeast and hops, the yeast cultivation method, I will tell Milia that the first batch will be cultivated in a few days, and the hops can be collected in an afternoon, right?"

Lord Duke smiled slightly, as long as these two most important links are dealt with, the remaining problems will naturally be solved.

This four-hour discussion came to an end, and the elder Bill immediately said that he would go to collect the wasp fruit as soon as he returned.

Mr. Murray is not entirely in favor of this, but at least he does not disagree, and holds a wait-and-see attitude for the time being.

After all, all this is just the little duke's words, and it is only possible to make a conclusion when the actual results come out.

Anyway, there is still a batch of malt in the warehouse, and even if it fails to use these to make experiments, there will not be much loss.

After the meeting ended, the two left separately, but Lin Ye continued to stay in the conference hall to summon several craftsmen.

Although the formal development of the brewing industry will not start until after the birth of the experiment, according to Lin Ye's estimate, with the current productivity, it will not be able to meet the market demand at all, and he is full of confidence in his products.

So before the prototype was born, he set out to take the next step, and he decided to set up a beer production line.

With the industrial level of the Black Fire Castle, it is naturally impossible to produce in a mechanized way in a large factory like the modern world.

However, he can build some simple processing equipment and carry out small-scale production, although it is completely incomparable with the assembly line of the previous generation, and compared with the traditional brewing process, I don't know how many times more efficient.

He handed over several drawings that he had drawn overnight to the craftsmen and discussed with them for another four hours.

"That's pretty much it, Mr. Wood, and I'll leave the rest to you. Lin Ye finally expounded his thoughts to these craftsmen.

The leading carpenter, Wood, nodded solemnly, it was very difficult to understand the Duke's thoughts.

This series of processes is too new for them.

"Understood, my lord, we will follow the requirements of the drawings and make this set ...... It may take a little time for the production line to be made, but we will complete it within the time you require, so you can rest assured. Wood patted his chest and reassured.

Now that the Duke has made a request, no matter whether this production line can work or not, they will build it on time.

After Lin Ye sent them away, Miria finally sent lunch, oh no, it should be dinner now.

"My lord, you are always like this, as soon as you start the meeting, you get carried away, you even forget to eat, and your body will not be able to stand it if you continue like this. Milia walked into the conference hall with her plate in hand.

The plate was filled with two slices of brown bread, a ham and some vegetables, which was a very common food pairing.

But for the current situation of food shortage in Blackfire Castle, Milia has taken great pains to do so.

And she also carefully put bread, ham and vegetables into different styles, which can give Lin Ye a refreshing feeling almost every day.

It also made him particularly appetizing.

"I'm sorry, but I'm so happy, so I talked to them a little bit more before I knew it. The Black Dog Tribe and the Gray Wolf Tribe sent food one after another, of course, the Gray Wolf Tribe just meant it, mainly from the Black Dog Tribe, relying on this bit of food, we can barely survive until the moon. ”

Lin Ye was thinking about the various materials in the Black Fire Castle in his heart, and the food was barely able to support it.

This can be regarded as a solution to an urgent need.

"My lord, you don't have to carry everything on yourself, there are so many of us, we all work together, no matter what kind of difficulties there are, everyone can persevere in the past. Miria gave him a disgusted look and complained.

Lin Ye devoured the food on his plate, he was really hungry.

"I'm not a duke, I'm everyone's lord, I have to do something to make everyone live a good life. But then again, Milia, I really have one thing I ask you to do, and it's a very important thing, and it has a bearing on the future of our Black Fire Castle. He looked at her with a smile.

Seeing his serious expression, Milia suddenly panicked.

She hurriedly waved her hand and said, "My lord, Milia is just a maid, and she can't take on such a heavy responsibility." ”

She crossed her hands, bit her lip, and buried her head in the water.

"What's the matter, are you afraid that you won't be able to do well and live up to my trust?" Lin Ye asked her with a smile.

She nodded slightly, she was the kind of character who was afraid of messing things up and causing trouble for others.

Lin Ye knew this.

"You, this matter must be done by the man I trust the most, and who else can there be but you?" Lin Ye patted his head and put on a look of a big headache.

Obviously, he deliberately put on this appearance to get Milia to take the bait.

Sure enough, the innocent maid immediately said seriously: "My lord, if I can share your worries, Milia will definitely work hard to do it." ”

Lin Ye was secretly proud of her hooking, and at the same time was greatly moved by her heart.

"I'm going to teach you the techniques of making yeast, because Blackfire Castle is still in its infancy, and these skills are our precious treasures, and they must not be left into the hands of people outside of our Blackfire Castle, so for this, I will teach you a language...... Well, it's kind of an ancient language. ”

Lin Ye made up his mind to promote Chinese characters, and Milia was the first student he focused on cultivating.

"Ancient language?Milia has also learned some ancient languages, I don't know ......" Miria was a little puzzled, she had never heard of the Duke studying ancient languages, and what kind of yeast was unheard of.

"You have never learned this language, and it is a little difficult, so don't give up halfway. Lin Ye used the agitation method.

"My lord, as long as I can share your worries and difficulties, Milia will overcome all kinds of difficulties, so this language, Milia will definitely learn!" The innocent girl's eyes were resolute.

The young Duke nodded with satisfaction, she was so motivated, he had to work harder.

Everything will move forward in an orderly manner!
