Lady of the Lord From the East

Chapter 51

The men who firmly believed that their women were just dreaming were shocked when they saw the driver who arrived as promised.

A serf who happened to know one of the coachmen went forward and asked, "Tom, aren't you in town delivering goods for those shops? How come you're here?"

The coachman named Tom told him beamingly: "The Count hired us to take people from your village to and from your village twice a day, and deliver the goods for the adults at other times. The price is generous."

These coachmen are all free people. Working for the Count is not only more stable than delivering goods to merchants but also has a higher salary. Of course, they are happy.

Another coachman also said with a smile: "Yes, and if you are in the castle at noon, you can eat meat-flavored stewed beans with everyone, and if you are in the town, you can also eat with those workers. If you change someone else, you can have kindness. How generous is the earl of yours?"

The serfs in the castle can eat the beans stewed with bones, so the food in the town will not be bad, and the stewed beans eaten by the workers in the town occasionally have some haggis in the stewed beans, and I don't know who is responsible for cooking. How did the woman deal with it? Those internal organs tasted good, completely different from the unpalatable internal organs I had eaten before.

The men were stunned to hear that they said that there was a bone stew in the castle for the women to eat.

"Master Earl is so generous? Can so many people eat it?"

"Of course." Tom stiffened his stomach. Recently, because he can eat a full meal every day, his lunch meal has been saved a lot, the weight of the meal at night has increased, and his stomach has grown a nod. , "I heard that the earl is going to open a meat sauce factory and kill several pigs and sheep every day. Those bones are useless, and the generous earl will eat it for his subjects."

The meat sauce factory hasn't actually opened yet, but recently the castle's chef Bob arranged to train workers to make meat sauce, so he used a lot of meat, and naturally, there were a lot of bones left in the castle that couldn't be digested, so he just gave it to the workers. They have lunch.

As for where the workers came from, do you still remember Butler Patton saying he was going to the next county to buy servants? That's right, ten of these servants were cut off by Felix before they took office and sent to make meat sauce, which made the butler very sad.

But there is no way to do it. The recipe of the meat sauce must be well protected. He will be more at ease if these servants who have signed a sales contract with the Count do this job, and even if this is arranged, the recipe for the seasoning is still in the hands of the castle. In the hands of Chef Bob, who has been in use for more than ten years, he will prepare the seasonings to be used, and then hand them over to the new servants to cook in the pot, although adding all seasonings except onion and garlic at one time will affect the meat to some extent. The deliciousness of the sauce, but the secrecy is indeed improved.

The meat sauces produced by these exercises were not wasted. They were all put into wide-mouth glass bottles, plugged with wooden corks, heated in a steamer, then corked tightly, and finally sealed with wax. After the meat sauce is stored in a ventilated and cool place, it can be stored for two or three months even in hot summer, and it can be stored for a longer time in winter.

This batch of meat sauce is going to be used for trial sales. They can't just cooperate with Claude. Whether it is Felix or Wei Wei, it is best to have their caravan, so they are in the castle. The servants selected a few clever and articulate people and planned to let them go to the nearest big city to do business with these meat sauces and a batch of freshly prepared pasta.
