Old Mike opened his eyes wide and said, "Why do you accuse someone of innocence out of thin air..."
"What innocence? I saw you secretly add water to the barrel the day before yesterday."
Old Mike's face turned red, and the veins on his forehead popped out, and he argued, "What's wrong with adding water? If water is added to wine, is it still wine?"
The words that followed were difficult to understand, such as "making the taste better" and "saving costs", etc., which caused everyone in the tavern to burst into laughter, and the atmosphere inside and outside the tavern was filled with joy.
In the midst of laughter, Gooden tasted the finest ale.
Slightly cold ale, the astringency in the mouth and the thought of malt bloom freely in the mouth.
After thinking about it for a while, Gudern gave a pretty good evaluation.
But compared to modern alcoholic beverages, it's still far behind.
A glass of ale is only about 400 milliliters, and Gudern can finish it in just a few sips.
Although it has the word "wine" in it, the alcohol content in it is not high. If you want to get him drunk, you will need at least dozens of drinks.
And he just came to experience and investigate. After drinking, he asked Old Joseph to pay and prepare to go to the next place to investigate.
If the tavern can reflect the economic level of the town, then the blacksmith shop reflects the current industrial level.
Seeing Gooden leaving the tavern, Carol in the corner quickly got up and fled, not even bothering to take away the remaining food and ale on the table.
He doesn't want to stay in Qingyuan Town for another second now.
On the way to the blacksmith shop, Old Joseph suddenly spoke.
"Master, the envoy from the Charleson family was also there just now."
"Yeah, I know." Gudern nodded slightly.
Although the two of them had never met, Gude had glanced at each other's appearance through the small hole in the side hall.
There were only a few people in the tavern at that time, and he could be found even if he was huddled in the corner.
"Then the news that you won't see him when you wake up, I'm afraid..."
"It doesn't matter. The fact that the other party didn't dare to say hello to me also shows that they have a guilty conscience. It's possible that they were responsible for the attack on me."
Gudern spoke slowly in a voice that could only be heard by the two of them.
Chapter 9 Boom Ka
Such a bold guess surprised Joseph, but after thinking about it, he realized that it was really possible.
After arriving in Qingyuan Town, the other party had already contacted him seven or eight times in private, trying to use money to instigate him to rebel.
But he never agreed, and just kept using vague excuses.
After the young master was attacked, the other party also sent people to contact him and even brought threats.
If the young master wakes up a day or two later, he may have to take the young master back to the capital, life or death.
Fortunately, the young master has regained consciousness, and at the same time, he has awakened his special ability as a blessing in disguise.
It seems that the goddess of luck still favors her young master.
…
The two chatted casually, and after a while they arrived at the blacksmith shop on the edge of the town.
The chimney extending from the stove was emitting slowly black smoke. A strong apprentice was hitting the red-hot iron with a hammer, and the rhythmic sound of hammering continued to ring around.
When Gudern and his party arrived, the blacksmith shop owner put down his work and hurriedly came out to greet them.
"Lord, are you here to customize an object?"
"That's right." Gudern nodded and got off the horse with the help of a guard.
Buck then enthusiastically invited Gooden to come and take a look.
As a lord, the demand for iron tools is much greater than that of ordinary people.
It can be said that more than half of the business of the blacksmith shop is related to the lord, and it is not an exaggeration to say that the blacksmith shop is specially opened for the lord.
Iron hooves, stirrups, weapons, and armors are almost all made and maintained by the blacksmith shop. The money he earns from them can be used to open another blacksmith shop.
It is also true that Buck was very enthusiastic when he saw Gudern's arrival.
"Are there any finished weapons now?"
Looking at the busy apprentices, Gudern asked casually.
"Yes, Pansy, go get a long sword that has not yet been sharpened."
As Buck said this, he ordered his apprentice to go get the sword, and the apprentice with quick hands and feet quickly retrieved the sword.
However, Pansy did not hand the sword directly to the lord, but first handed it to his master Buck, who then handed it over to Gooden.
After all, the lord was attacked two days ago. If he acted arrogantly now, it would be bad for anyone.
Buck was very satisfied with this alert performance. He took the sword, shook it twice, and handed the hilt towards Gooden.
Gudern took the sword and checked it using the panel.
[Name: Ordinary long sword without blade]
[entry: strong]
[Quality: Ordinary]
[Introduction: A pretty good long sword with guaranteed quality]
Gudern played two sword flowers in his hand, and then asked.
"How long does it take for you to make such a long sword?"
"As long as there are enough materials and no special requirements, three days will be enough." Buck answered without thinking.
"What about the fastest speed? And the quantity."
"Lord, this is already the fastest speed. There are only a limited number of people in my blacksmith shop. I can forge five or six in one batch without any problem."
Gudern nodded slightly and continued to ask.
"What about a set of armor and protective gear? The kind used by ordinary soldiers. How long does it take to make a set?"
This question made Buck think for a moment, "Fifteen... no, ten days, ten days can build a complete set."
The Lord's sudden visit and asking these questions made him smell something unusual.
Combined with the previous attacks, he believed that the lord might be going to war with certain forces in the near future.
In order to win this big order, he was ready to work overtime all night to build it.
Gudern was a little surprised when he heard that a complete set of armor could be made within ten days at the earliest.
The ordinary armor he was talking about was plate armor, which was relatively easy to build.
Compared to armors such as chain armor, chain armor or scale armor that consume the market, ten days is indeed a very fast speed.
But it is not without its problems. The armor is thick, inconvenient to wear, not ventilated, etc. are all problems of plate armor.
It seems that the forging and smelting technology in this world is quite good, so maybe some subsequent forging needs can be arranged by the blacksmith shop.
"Yes, I will have an order for you in two days." Gudern said with satisfaction, and then threw the sword back to the other party.
When Buck heard that he had received the order, his face lit up and he quickly agreed.
The investigation into the blacksmith shop had just completed the first step, and then Gooden continued to chat with Buck.
After asking seven or eight questions in succession and checking the ore and iron bars twice, Gooden left with satisfaction.
After seeing the lord off, Buck wiped the non-existent sweat from his forehead.
The Lord Lord today was really weird. The questions asked later were indeed related to forging, but he couldn't answer half of them.
What incomprehensible words like metal reaction, module forging, etc.
But fortunately, he was still very satisfied with his expression in the end, so his order shouldn't be lost... right?
Gudern is going to take a look at the farms near Qingyuan Town. After all, agricultural problems cannot be ignored.
As a Chinese with a pure soul, agriculture is something that is engraved in our DNA. I kept researching and tossing it until evening before returning to the castle to sort out today's investigation results.
On the other side, Carol finally arrived at Charleson Castle before nightfall.
After returning to his own territory, Carol didn't bother to wash up and quickly asked to see the current Baron Gergill of the Charleson family.
Hearing that his envoy had returned, Gejier quickly summoned him to ask for news about Qingyuan Town.
Seeing Carol covered in mud, Gejir was slightly startled.
"What's going on with you?"
When Carol was asked, her face looked a little excited, and she quickly processed the whole story and reported it to the lord.
"Lord, you have to make the decision for me!"
"As your envoy, I went to Qingyuan Town to discuss the debt issue, but Gudern did not want to see me."
"The person who met me was the old housekeeper. When we started talking about the debt, the other party started to be careless. After I said that I was going to the arbitration office, the other party acted very tough."
"Just after I left the castle, the other party sent people to hunt me down. What I looked like was caused by my fall while escaping on the road. If I hadn't run so fast, I might never see you again!"
Carol said with tears, as if she had really escaped death.
However, Gejir's focus at the moment was no longer on this, and he frowned slightly and asked.
"You said Gudern didn't want to see you? Wasn't he seriously injured and in a coma? Is he awake now?"
"The person who came to chase me was Gudern. He didn't look like he was seriously injured and unconscious. I swear to the gods, all this is true!"
"Boom Ka——"
At this time, there was a sudden thunder outside, and a heavy rain followed.
Chapter 10 You need to wash your face to refresh
This thunder made Carol tremble all over, and at this moment, Gergil was frowning and lowering his head, not knowing what he was thinking about.
After a while, he looked up at Carol who made a muddy sound and said in a complimentary tone.
