Steel, Guns, and the Industrial Party that Traveled to Another World
Chapter 104 Canned Food
At 8 o'clock in the morning, Irene arrived at the lord's castle.
Because she had been studying flag language for the army before, in order to facilitate discussions with officers, she had been staying in the courtyard of the staff department, or running to the barracks.
After the flag language had been initially formed, Paul ordered her to move her office to the castle.
A servant led her to her "office", which was a small room. After entering, she found that there was only a desk, a few chairs, and a bookshelf with a kitchen.
Irene sighed and thought: "What a boss who doesn't understand the mood of life!"
She didn't complain that Paul was too stingy, because she had seen Paul's own office, which was also extremely monotonous, not much better than here.
"Forget it, I'll decorate it slowly in the future."
She looked left and right in the room, thinking carefully about the plan to decorate the room.
At this time, the sound of the door next door opened and closed came.
She suddenly remembered that she had just heard the servant say that there was another consultant in the lord's mansion, who worked next to her.
As a colleague, she should take the initiative to build a good relationship. After all, she is no longer the dazzling princess that everyone wants to cling to.
Irene came out and knocked gently on the door of the next room. A voice of "Come in" came from inside, which was very pleasant and pleasant.
"From the sound of her voice, she should be a lovely girl. The count is not a pervert."
With this thought in mind, Irene opened the door and was stunned.
Standing in front of her was Miss Ladi, the scholar and adventurer who saved her from the jaws of death a few months ago.
Obviously, judging from the expression on Miss Scholar's face, she was also very surprised.
Irene quickly reacted and said calmly, "Oh, I didn't expect that Miss Ladi is the newly recruited consultant of the Lord's Mansion. Hello!"
Ladi also responded with a smile: "Hello, Miss Dias. I heard Lord Graman talk about you. I haven't visited you for several days. I'm sorry."
Irene shook her hand and said, "You couldn't find me a few days ago. I stayed in the military staff department. You are not allowed to enter and leave there casually."
"Don't talk to me so politely in the future. You first saved me, and now you are my colleague. Maybe this is God's arrangement."
Ladi smiled and nodded, and the little worry in her heart disappeared without a trace.
When she saved Miss Dias from the black tiger's mouth that day, although the other party thanked her, she didn't know why she always felt that the other party was a proud person. Now it seems that it is not difficult to get along with him.
"So, you've given up your career as an adventurer?"
"Yes, I've been traveling around for the past few years, and it's time to take a good rest."
"Haha, I guess you've accumulated a lot of knowledge in your adventure career? I'll have to ask you a lot of advice."
"It's the same for you. We're both scholars. Please give me more advice in the future."
The two of them chatted happily. Because they were both women and scholars, they got along very well.
About half an hour later, a servant knocked on the door and came in. He said respectfully: "The Earl invites the two consultants to meet in the restaurant."
Irene asked in confusion: "Why the restaurant? Is Earl Graman going to treat us to dinner? It's still early for lunch."
The servant said: "I don't know either. The Earl just asked me to treat you."
Irene pouted: "Really, Ladi and I are having a good chat."
The servant broke out in a cold sweat. He had never seen anyone complain about Earl Graman in public, but he pretended not to hear it.
Ladi pulled her sleeve and said, "Betty, let's go quickly. It's not good to keep Lord Graman waiting for a long time."
In just half an hour, they were so intimate that they called each other by name.
...
After Irene and Ladi arrived at the restaurant, they found that there were already quite a few people here.
In addition to Count Graman, there was also Old Ford, the chief of the Administrative Council, several supervisors including Hansel, and military high-ranking officials such as Schroeder and Bryce.
"Oh, two beauties are here, welcome, welcome."
Count Graman seemed very happy and greeted them warmly.
Irene wanted to complain in her heart: "Really, the war is about to start, and you can still maintain such a good mood."
After the two female consultants sat down, Paul said to everyone: "I called everyone here today to invite you to taste a special food."
He turned to the servants and ordered: "Put the things up."
Soon, strange glass bottles were placed in front of everyone one by one.
Irene carefully examined the strange bottle in front of her. It was a wide-mouthed bottle made of thick glass, with a cork tightly plugging the mouth of the bottle and a layer of wax on the outside.
But the most attractive thing was what was in the bottle, which seemed to be chopped apples.
No mistake, one post, one content, one 6, one 9, one book, one bar, take a look!
She looked at the bottle in front of Ladi next to her, which seemed to contain pears.
Looking around, the contents of other people's bottles were different, some were vegetables, some were meat. Most people looked at the glass bottle in front of them with puzzled eyes.
Except for a few people in the Executive Yuan, they had heard Paul talk about this thing a long time ago, and Ford General Manager and Hansel had personally handled the establishment of the factory that manufactured this thing.
Paul happily announced: "Everyone, this is 'canned food', a food processing method that can preserve food for a long time. Now open them and taste the food inside."
"Come on, follow me."
Paul first scraped the wax seal with a knife, then picked up the "corkscrew" next to the glass bottle - a spiral metal hook, twisted it into the cork, and then pulled it up, and the cork was pulled out.
He picked up a fork, forked out a piece of beef from it, put it in his mouth and chewed it slowly.
"Well! It tastes good. Everyone can eat it with confidence, the food inside is cooked."
Everyone opened the wide-mouthed bottle in the way of the earl, picked up the fork to taste the food inside.
"It tastes okay!"
"The soup inside is also delicious."
"Although it is not as good as freshly made, if it can be preserved for a long time, it is really a great invention."
Everyone talked about it while eating, especially the military. Schroeder and Bryce began to discuss the importance of canned food to military supplies in a low voice.
Irene ate a piece of apple, "Hmm... This apple tastes a little strange, but it's not bad. How about yours, Ladi?"
Ladi nodded and said, "The pear flesh in mine is very sweet and tastes good."
Paul looked at the two female consultants and asked, "You two are from prosperous places. I wonder if this kind of thing can sell well in your place?"
Ladi said, "If it can be preserved for a long time as you said, it will definitely be sold well, especially for those who often travel long distances. It will definitely be welcomed by them."
As a former adventurer, she certainly knew what the invention of canned food meant to travelers.
Irene also nodded repeatedly. Although she had been well-fed since she was a child, she had a deep understanding of running all the way to the northwest. Delicious food such as meat and vegetables deteriorated very quickly. When there was no village or store in front of her, she could only eat dry and hard black bread.
"Haha! Very good, we are already producing canned food in large quantities and will soon sell it to the south."
Paul announced to everyone happily.
