Winemaking isn't complicated, it's even simple. The real complexity is how to make good wine, like a good wine.

However, Rossi has no intention of bringing the Chinese wine culture on the earth to this world, and there is no need for this. Baijiu was just a ticket for his promotion to the aristocratic circle. He's just a small lord at the moment, not strong enough to wield a touching fortune.

The grain was being purchased in an orderly manner, and within a week of Francisco's departure from Lyme City, eleven more people had arrived in Greentown from all over Greenland. These people all have a common characteristic, that is, ordinary and ordinary.

The biggest difference between people is the mental outlook, which is the opposite and comes in second place. A person has a strong aura, and there is a kind of domineering between raising his hands and feet, and people tend to remember that this person is very imposing, and do not pay special attention to his appearance. When you meet for the second time, you don't even need to see the person's face, you can recognize the person at a glance by looking from behind, based on his movements and momentum.

These people are very ordinary and ordinary, as if they were a blank piece of paper, and when they saw it, they could forget what they looked like.

But in the inner circle of the church, they are well known.

They were the Templars, the armed forces in the shadow of the Church.

The birth of the Templar is legendary, and there is a lot of resistance to the Church's ascent to the top. Some people and things are constantly looking for problems for the Church, and one Pope finally decides to solve these problems by force. Of course, in order to prevent this bloody method of the red fruit from affecting the positive image of the Church, there was the Templars, a group of apostles who lived in the shadows. They are responsible for silencing enemies with knives and swords, and compromising those who resist with powerful deterrents.

No one knows how many Templars there were, and no one knew who the leader of the Templars was, except for the Pope.

These men did not come to cleanse Rossi, but to assist him.

It was no secret that Rossi became a lord, and it was also hotly debated within the church. Some die-hard old-fashioned schools see this as a destruction and betrayal of the church and doctrine. If there is opposition, there is approval, and His Majesty the Pope directly transferred a part of the Templars to Rossi in order to suppress this opposition.

The person at the head is called Yarez, a height of 1.7273, with a slender and muscular body, and the only thing that impresses people is probably his face. He was the most recognizable person in the group, because he had two vertical notches on his face, from the cheekbones to the corners of his mouth, and when he was silent and expressionless, he gave people a gloomy feeling, but with an expression this feeling was even stronger.

When he arrived, he also brought Rossi a letter written by His Holiness the Pope himself.

The Pope and Archbishop Rodian have been very concerned about Rossi's so-called plan, and at this point, everything has developed according to Rossi's vision. He became a minor nobleman in the empire, successfully breaking into the circle of the ruling class of the empire, and all that remained was to try his best to rise to a higher position. His Holiness the Pope is also very sensitive to the fact that there has been a slight loosening in the way the Church is handled within the Empire.

They think that the church is divided internally, or that someone is ready to compromise because it can't withstand the pressure of two or three hundred years.

As a result, the Empire took the initiative to give in to some of the stronger areas, for example, the Church has always wanted to expand the scope of mission, not just in Greenland. Unfortunately, this idea has never been approved. But now it's different, the royal family allows the church to leave Greenland province with restrictions, but it doesn't allow them to expand their sphere of influence, which is a very good sign. So the Pope decided to step up his support for Rossi and let him try to solve the problem that the four Popes had not accomplished for so many years.

With the support of His Holiness the Pope, Rossi was even more emboldened.

He sent the information of the eleven people who came to the magistrate on the same day, and Carman did not dare to slack off, and immediately passed the relevant information to the imperial capital and put it on the desk of His Majesty the Emperor.

"It's not a risk, it's a deal. Rossi sat on a pew in the church, facing Arrez and stating his point simply, "If you want to participate in the game, you have to obey the rules of the game. The greatest power in the world is the power of the rules, and the empire will not break the rules, but will take the initiative to maintain it. What we have to do now is to follow the rules, then look for the enemy's weaknesses and defeat them in the way that the rules allow. ”

Expressionless, he was one of the few Templars to be a Judge warrior who had assassinated an Earl. According to his own account, he should be close to eighty years old, but in terms of appearance and physical fitness, he seems to be only in his forties.

Arrez looked at Rossi with a blank look in his eyes, without any brilliance, like a person who had lost hope and became desperate. He said in an indifferent tone: "You don't need to explain this to me, I am here only to obey orders. In addition, as of today, your identity has changed to the Knight of Judgment, which is known to only a limited number of people, including me. ”

"Judge Knight?", Rosie frowned slightly, Aarez's arrival gave him a very strange feeling to the church. At least when he was training at the Church headquarters, he had never heard of a Templar department in the Church. "Excuse me, what is the Knight of Adjudication...... I mean, what does this identity represent?"

"There are three tiers of Templars, the leader is the Knight of Judgment, the next is the Knight of Judgment, and then the rank of me, the Samurai of Judgment. The three estates that make up the management of the Templar order are ordinary members of the Templar order, and you have the power to command any Judge and Templar who must also be at your disposal. ”

"Are there many Templars?"

Yarez still had the same dead face, "I don't know how many. ”

Rossi was silent for a moment, then asked, "Does the Church have any other armed forces besides the Templars?"

"I don't know. ”

Arères didn't know, but he knew, at least there were ascetics. These two institutions have never appeared in front of ordinary people, and only the top and core of the Church know about the existence of these two structures, but except for the Pope and the archbishop, everyone else is completely ignorant of the personnel and composition of these two institutions.

The upper echelons of the empire also knew that the church had these two institutions, but they did not know the specifics.

Areth's arrival alleviated Rossi's lack of manpower, and Bivis suddenly came to his senses and put himself in a lower position, not relying on his status as a priest to criticize Rosie's behavior. With Aarez's help, Rosie successfully kidnaps a blacksmith and a carpenter from out of town. This may not be appropriate, but it is a small matter for his noble class.

After all, he didn't kill anyone, but there was something special about the way he invited people.

The two craftsmen were placed in the back of the church, and they were watched by each of them, and they were each to build some special brewing equipment. Some of the equipment was crafted by the town's blacksmiths and carpenters, and together they formed a simple distillation unit.

Winemaking is actually very simple, to put it bluntly, it is to ferment the grain, and then distill the alcohol, which becomes liquor after blending.

Thirty-seven years ago, the Empire had issued a ban on alcohol during the war with the Union, and after thirty-seven years of changes, the paper ban was no longer binding. The people are full of small private breweries, and as long as there are no large-scale natural disasters in the empire, no one cares about this matter.

In fact, rum is also an alcohol product obtained by distillation, but it is not the same as the raw material for liquor brewing.

The raw materials for liquor brewing are various grains with high starch content, while rum is an agricultural product with a high content of sucrose, in other words, the core ingredient of baijiu is glucose, and the core ingredient of rum is sucrose. [I don't drink alcohol myself, I don't know much about alcohol, if there is a mistake, please leave a message, I will revise it.] 】

The different ingredients result in different flavors, with the liquor being softer and the rum having a heavier taste.

But in terms of processes and processes, there are indeed differences, but the gap is not as big as imagined.

Wine is a very magical thing, it can anesthetize people's nerves and make people do strange things. It can also make the nerves excited, and even dependent.

Whether it was the Tullman Empire or the other two countries, wine was an indispensable necessity for all levels of society.
