Our family is in decline

"How is your lord?" The person in charge felt a little uneasy when he saw that the lord was not moving. After waiting for a while, he couldn't help but ask carefully.

"Uh... the fruit aroma is pretty strong." Lance smacked his lips.

If you want to say that he understands wine, you are looking up to Lance. He is not good at it at all. He has never drank much wine in his previous life or in this life. Even if he puts the world's famous wine in front of him, he still can't figure out why. , not as good as a drink.

Instead, you ask him to tell which of the two cans of Fatty Water is delicious and which is Pepsi Simple.

Lance clearly knew who this wine was aimed at, those wealthy women such as rich daughters and aristocratic young wives.

As for the taste and flavor, they don't care, they just need to create a name for this wine.

What beautification, what status symbol, what makes men more attracted to men after drinking it...

What women drink is not wine, but stories.

As long as the story is told well, they will cleanse themselves. Anyone who says it doesn't taste good will be hostile to them.

Just like refined salt harvests rich people and nobles under various names, ascension potions harvest men, and this fruit wine is harvested for women.

The most important thing in making a product is not the product itself, but determining the target audience and telling the story well. This is a very simple truth that Lance learned in his previous life.

Sometimes it is so magical, people rarely pay attention to the product itself, nor really care about their own needs, and are unable to extricate themselves from being manipulated by marketing.

Of course, this is only possible for people who are materially satisfied. Ordinary people can’t even afford to eat. Who will play these games with you?

But this is Lance's opportunity. Hamlet, a big pit, is destined to need to suck blood from the outside to maintain it.

Anyone with money is his target.

"What's the name of this wine?"

"Not yet." The person in charge also understood and quickly echoed, "This wine was invented by adults, and you have to give it a name."

Lance raised his glass to the sunshine outside and blurted out, "A girl's dream."

"Your Majesty, it's so good!" The person in charge didn't know if it was really good, but the lord must be right anyway.

Even if this is just the instinctive reaction of the person in charge of the winery to serve those nobles, Lance doesn't like people flattering him, because it means someone wants to take advantage of him.

"Okay, I'll take a batch of samples for testing, and the research on the next few wines can't stop."

The request that Lance interrupted him is exactly the direction of the current winery research. Only one wine cannot support the series of brands he wants to build. For beer, fruit wine, distilled wine and other research and development, Hamlet The foundation of an industry in the future.

The wine industry is not competitive with those aristocratic wineries that have been specialized in winemaking for hundreds of years. If you can't beat them, there is no need.

Twelve bottles in a dozen were anti-humanity settings in the twelve decimal system, and Lance kicked them into the trash because Hamlet unified the decimal system, and there were ten bottles in this box.

There was one box of Lance beer and two boxes of fruit wine. On the contrary, I only got one bottle of white wine. This thing was distilled in one step with the head and tail removed. It was probably in the 40s or 50s. It was not something ordinary people could withstand drinking.

The person in charge was at the side registering the types and quantities that Lance had taken, and these would be reported in the end.

Yes, even if the whole Hamlet belongs to him, the rules are the rules, and everything must be followed.

Lance rarely appeared in front of people, and his things were moved outside before being put into the showroom.

If there were any unfamiliar people, such as Margaret, their eyes would pop out if they saw a lord carrying things by himself.

It's one thing to hear it from other people, but it's another thing to see it with your own eyes.

On the contrary, the workers in the winery didn't even realize that it was the lord. If it doesn't affect normal work, it's called an inspection. Otherwise, it might as well be called acting. Who can show it?

After coming out of the winery, Lance did not go back to work. Instead, he turned around and came to Greendale. He saw flowers blooming in the front yard of her house, and a figure walking among them.

When Lance walked into it, Greendale looked back and said angrily, "You finally thought of me after you finished your work, right?"

"No way, you have always been in my heart." Lance hugged me up, his nose was close, and he felt that special body fragrance, "The fragrance of flowers in this courtyard is not as fragrant as yours~"

"Don't make trouble, I'm busy." Greendale felt a little helpless when she saw his rude look, and the flowers she picked in her hands became messy.

"Don't move, let me hug you." Lance didn't let go of her, and the gentle warmth in his arms made his nerves relax.

Greendale couldn't help but stop her movements and raised her hand to caress her gently, "Take a good rest when you are tired."

It took a moment for Lance to let go and face her touching face. "You advised me to rest, but you also have to take a good rest yourself."

Speaking of this, Greendale actually smiled, "Life is very good now, and I even have time to take care of the flowers in the yard."

"I don't care. I'm so tired that I feel bad."

The two of them chatted for a while, but did not take any further action. Even if Lance wanted to discuss the situation in depth, he was not allowed to do so because Greendale was really busy with something right now.

Greendale is not idle at all, she is basically a model worker who moves wherever she needs to.

For example, she made the koji used in distilleries to make distilled wine, and she also made the fruity flavors used to make fruit wine.

It was Lance who put forward the demand and she was responsible for realizing the technical issues. It can only be said that the accumulation of the Deer Head Tribe is very important, and the witch's legacy also helped a lot.

When Lance went out, she was responsible for handling affairs, and now that Lance is back, she has devoted herself to research again, and now she is studying another topic, that is, perfume, another scythe for harvesting women.

The flowers in the courtyard she cultivated were her research materials, and she didn't really have the time to cultivate flowers here.

"This is a new fruit wine. It uses the fruit essence you extracted. Since the target customer is women, I will give it a try when I have time to see if there are any suggestions for improvement."

Putting down one of the boxes of fruit wine, Lance talked to her about some issues of essential oil refining, because floral aroma is also one of the special flavors that Lance creates for a wine.

After all, he still went to school. Although Lance lost his innocence, this thing also taught him a series of operations such as extracting essential oils.

Greendale has some tribal secrets, and the legacy of the bald wizard in Lance's hands even has a way to refine people into essential oils, and the refined things are even more powerful and have all kinds of strange effects.

But her current research direction is to eliminate the help of those extraordinary powers, because these crafts are destined to be handed over to ordinary people after they mature.

Lance no longer looked carefree when talking about business, and he had no intention of disturbing her after seeing her busy.

Lance will not trouble others just to satisfy himself. Mutual respect is the basis for living in harmony.

There is another very important reason why Lance went to the winery today, and that is because he promised Boudica before starting the second mission of investigating the cave that he would let her drink as much as she wanted after the mission was completed.

Needless to say, Lance of the Beast Cave and the others, even Amanda, who drew the death prophecy at the beginning, was fine and recognized by Lance, and even Alhazred, who was most likely to be in trouble, broke through his inner demons.

It could be said that everyone else was fine, but she was injured and fell ill, making her the most unlucky person on this trip.

Although there are some realistic factors in this, such as she is in close combat and has no armor.

But due to her obsession with quitting drinking, and the fact that he told her at the beginning that he would let her drink after completing the task, Lance felt that there was something occult about it, and he suspected that she planted this flag to cause the accident.

And he did lie to her after he stopped drinking, so he couldn't help but feel guilty.

The three-day period has come, so naturally I have to reward her well to fulfill my promise.

But when Lance found her room, he found that she was not there.

I am recovering from my illness, where can I go?

Shouldn't he sneak away to drink?

Lance directly turned on [Blood Hunting] and walked outside following the smell.

But what surprised Lance was that it was not heading towards the square, but towards the suburbs.

The further we walked, the fewer buildings were around, and Lance realized what was ahead.

Dog training range.

That was an area that Lance specially set aside away from the center of the town after William told about the failure of wolf training last time.

Now that I think about it, I was really out of my mind at the time, and threw those wolves to William without considering the reality of the situation.

Let’s not talk about the small yard of the house. Several wolves were thrown in and there was no room to turn around, which was really embarrassing for William.

Moreover, there are many people around the center of the town that are confusing and noisy. For wild wolves who are accustomed to the tranquility of the wilderness, it is even more uneasy.

Not to mention that these wolves are a threat to ordinary townspeople. It can be said that they are not good for humans or wolves.

But it's much better if I switch to this side.

Lance moved closer,

Thick wooden piles were directly inserted into the ground, and then thick wooden boards were connected to them to surround the place and completely seal it. This place was far away from the area of ​​human activities, and there was not so much noisy influence, so no scary sounds were heard. Wolf howl.

"Lord Lord!"

As the Sheriff, William is responsible for the Sheriff's affairs, so he is not here all day long. The person in charge of managing this place is a retired veteran who was disabled due to injuries.

"Okay, have you had any difficulties recently..." Lance nodded in response, and then had a brief chat with him.

Lance still remembers him. It happened during the battle to defend the burned farm. The witch used the plague to drive the monsters to invade. Hamlet gathered the army to stop them, but the enemy was too strong.

During that battle, one of his hands was bitten off by an infected beast, and his body was covered with scars, but fortunately his life was saved.

Facing the concern from the lord, he seemed a little nervous, or rather excited. It was a supreme honor for him that the adults could remember him. As for the severed hand, it seemed that it was not a disability, but the medal.

He had gone all out to kill the enemy on the battlefield and was not even aware of the threat of death. It wasn't until he woke up again and was already in the hospital bed that he realized that he had lost one of his hands and was left with serious injuries all over his body.

What is even more painful is being infected with the plague, and the fear of being eroded little by little is even more terrifying than death.

Because a broken hand means a disabled person, a burden to the family and to Hamlet, despair had already enveloped him at that time, and he had the idea of ​​​​suicide more than once.

I just hope that the lord can really hand over the pension to his family.

But the lord did not give up on them, and personally participated in the treatment of these wounded soldiers, and promised to save the plague at all costs.

He survived and was saved again by the lord from despair. It was relatively easy to arrange for him to come here after he recovered.

In addition to him, there were many veterans who were disabled due to injuries for various reasons and were arranged by Lance in suitable positions throughout the town.

Even Lance's various magical and extraordinary powers cannot take care of them at any time. This is the cruelty of war. Disaster has never been far away from Hamlet, but it has been blocked by the soldiers.

But just as he promised at the time, Lance did not abandon them, nor would he give up anyone who was loyal to Hamlet.

This is also why Lance must promote a medical system that gets rid of extraordinary powers. The extraordinary powers mastered by extraordinary people have too many limitations. If it is stable, it will be fine, but if you are not careful, you will lose control and have all kinds of negative effects.

"When we first came here some time ago, these wolves were very cruel. They would suddenly attack even if they were fed. Now they lie down and sleep in the sun every day and ignore people at all."

"It's okay, go ahead and let me take a look for myself." Lance reassured him and walked into the simple dog training ground on his own.

Because it was surrounded by wooden boards, the structure inside couldn't be seen, but as the designer, Lance still had a rough idea.

The main body is a yard specially used for activities, and then there is a row of independent dog rooms to separate the wolves.

The door is opened at a specific time every day, one is let out for two hours, and then closed back and the other is let out.

As for why we don't raise these wolves together, why do we have to make it so troublesome?

Lance didn't know much about wolves, but William had research on this. After all, wolves are also dogs, and dogs are also wolves.

The reason for this is also very simple.

Wolves are group animals, but only when there is one wolf will the remaining wolves live in peace.

If there is no alpha wolf, then the remaining wolves will compete with each other for the alpha wolf position, and the battle will not subside until the winner is decided.

And now these female wolves have separated from the pack and have lost the alpha wolf Wangcai. Although they are not males, their fighting mentality is not so strong.

But the problem is that these wolves are pregnant. In this state, they will be more sensitive to changes in the environment, and any abnormalities will cause a strong stress response.

So keep them separate to prevent fighting.

At the same time, an independent space can make them feel safe, and they can take good care of their fetuses and avoid stress.

As for the two hours of activity time every day, this is actually a gradual taming.

William knew that he could not use force to tame these pregnant female wolves, but he could get them used to the rhythm of being managed.

When the time comes, use food to lure them out of the cage, and then use food to lure them back into the cage. (End of chapter)
