Chapter 26: food solutions

"Zhang, Zhang Feng..."

Caroline hesitated.

"What's wrong?"

Zhang Feng gave Erica his residence to train those slaves, and is now on his way back to the castle.

"We are running out of food. If we supply the slaves in unlimited quantities, we may not be able to last for a week."

Caroline knew that saying this might make Zhang Feng unhappy, but it was a fact, she had to say it.

After Zhang Feng announced the unlimited supply of food to these slaves, Caroline almost wanted to interrupt, but she still held back, she could not influence the authority of the city lord, she could only ask Zhang Feng when no one was there complain.

In fact, Zhang Feng's order just now, not to mention these slaves, even the soldiers who maintain order on the side are envious. If they are not of high quality, maybe they will voluntarily become Zhang Feng's slaves, after all, eat, drink, and more Salary, the most important thing is that there is no danger to life, no need to do heavy work, just need to learn noble etiquette, this is the life that most people dream of.

"Of course I know that you don't have to worry about the food problem, it will be solved soon - or it will be solved immediately."

Zhang Feng seemed to remember something, and suddenly turned around and shouted:

"Marlow Knight."

"exist."

Marlowe, who was beside him, responded immediately.

"I have something left in my house. You go and get it back for me. It's just a burden. It's probably so big that you can see it when you go up to the second floor."

Zhang Feng stretched out his arms and gestured with his hands.

"Yes."

Marlowe, who was wearing a shiny knight's armor, didn't ask, and went back straight away.

Zhang Feng looked at the background of Marlowe's departure a little thoughtfully.

It's a bit unreasonable to ask a knight to run errands for him, mainly because there are too few knights in Hongye City.

At present, there are only two knights left. Knight Marlow usually stays by Caroline's side to protect her. Knight Baker is temporarily in charge of the security affairs of Hongye City, patrolling every day, plus a dozen soldiers, this is Hongye the entire force of the city.

Originally, Zhang Feng was not very concerned about the military, because he felt that Hongye City seemed to be very safe, but after seeing Erica today and hearing that there is a profession like horse thief, he felt a sense of crisis and felt that You should put recruiting on the agenda.

Although Zhang Feng does not have the idea of ​​​​to dominate the world and does not need a lot of soldiers, whether it is used is one thing, and whether it is used or not is another.

He went back and discussed with Marlow to see what conditions would attract the knights. As long as there were enough knights, they could train the soldiers.

As for personal training? Zhang Feng didn't think about it at all. After all, professional things should be done by professional people.

He can bring the advanced training methods from another world to the knights for reference, but he still has to ask the knights to do it. After all, if you want to become a qualified knight, you have to start training from the age of six. Zhang Feng doesn’t think that The theoretical knowledge that you see for a few days is better than the experience of others for more than half a lifetime.

While Zhang Feng and Caroline leisurely returned to the castle hall, Knight Marlowe came back.

He was holding a large black bag, his eyes were a little shocked and unbelievable.

Zhang Feng sat on the main seat and waved his hand.

"Open it."

When Marlowe found this big bag, the bag was not zippered. He was so shocked when he saw what was in the bag with his own eyes.

After getting Zhang Feng's order, Marlow opened the zipper awkwardly.

A pile of beautifully packaged things came into Caroline's eyes.

"This is?"

Caroline walked in curiously to observe.

The first thing I saw was a translucent bag, which contained white particles.

"Rice!"

Although she knew that Zhang Feng had polished rice, after all, Caroline had eaten the polished rice porridge made by Zhang Feng this morning, but she was still a little surprised to see so much polished rice placed in front of her.

Due to the climate, the output of milled rice here is very rare. Even the great aristocrats rarely produce rice. They usually eat meat and bread as their staple food.

Polished rice is the food pursued by many nobles. Deliciousness is only one of the reasons. More importantly, it is rare. This is capital that can be shown off in the aristocratic circle. The price of milled rice can be imagined, and naturally it will not be cheap.

There are 3 bags of milled rice in this big bag, each bag has 5 jins. As for the price, it is not very good to estimate, because this kind of luxury item can be sold at different prices in the hands of different people, and it varies from person to person.

But it certainly won't be cheap.

Caroline was a little excited and looking forward to it, because the three bags of polished rice were only a small part of this weird black bag.

"What's this?"

Caroline picked up another bag of transparent packaging. The crystals inside looked very clean like white sand. This bag was much smaller than milled rice, and it was about the size of two slaps of hers.

"That's salt."

Zhang Feng came over.

"Salt?"

Caroline was a little confused. The salt she had seen were all thumb-sized and yellowish crystalline particles. How could it be so white and fine?

Zhang Feng didn't talk nonsense, he took it directly and tore a corner of the package.

"Tast it, what's the difference between this and the salt you eat."

Gently holding the tip of Caroline's palm, Zhang Feng poured some salt into her palm.

Caroline was a little shy about Zhang Feng's actions, but she didn't refuse, because she was more curious.

He lightly dipped a little bit with his fingers and put it in his mouth.

"Hmm~ so salty!"

The salt Caroline had eaten before was unprocessed coarse salt, not only salty, but also bitter, astringent, and other strange tastes.

For a chef, how much salt is used in cooking is very important. It should have a salty taste, but it should not be too bitter. Even the chef of the city owner's family can't control this amount very well, Caroline Often have a bitter taste.

And most importantly, salt is expensive!

There is neither sea nor salt mines near Hongye City, and salt is a necessity and needs to be transported from far away, so the price of salt has always been high.

It was just ordinary kosher salt.

If this pure white as snow salt appeared on the market, Caroline was sure that even if it was ten times or even a hundred times more expensive than coarse salt, some people would be willing to buy it.

Although the commoners are poor, the nobles are rich!

Seeing Caroline's brow wrinkled tightly by the salt, but she was reluctant to spit it out and swallowed the salt in one gulp, Zhang Feng felt inexplicably cute.

"Then you are trying this."

He opened another bag of the same white granular items.

"Is this also refined salt? But it feels thicker than refined salt..."

Caroline frowned and thought to herself.

"Come on, open your mouth, ah~"

Caroline opened her mouth subconsciously, but Zhang Feng took out a small spoon from nowhere and dug it out. Before Caroline could react, she directly shoved it into her mouth.

"Um~"

Caroline's eyes that sparkled like a lake instantly widened.

So sweet!
