167. Cans and caps
“How much is the commission?”
"It's best to sell for 70%."
"It's a bit high. If the young master hadn't spoken on his own, it would be difficult to get to this point."
Lea walked into the door of the department store and looked at the goods on the shelves, paper, salt, sugar, various pottery and porcelain, and glass.
Some glass bottles also contain cut fruits and liquids that are not useful.
Xiqi took the initiative to introduce: "This is canned fruit. It is very sweet. Do you want to try it?"
"Why put the fruit into a glass bottle?" Lea was puzzled.
"Putting fruits into cans can extend the storage period. They are processed with candied stains and are not prone to rot." Xiqi repeated Luo Wei's explanation.
The sugar-staining method has only become popular recently, and the effect remains to be verified.
“How long can it last?”
"I don't know, at least I will leave it for more than one month."
The temperature difference between day and night in the territory fluctuates greatly, making it difficult to preserve food.
However, after sealing and preserving, the decay rate is much slower than expected due to the rare bacterial species.
Lovi once considered producing preservatives, but later found that it was not necessary at all.
As long as you drain the air in the bottle as much as possible, you can have a good storage effect.
"Young master, I have a lot of ideas." Lea was slightly silent, and she didn't say a word.
Glass is an expensive luxury. Putting fruits into glass will actually reduce the value of glass. Unless it is the top fruit, it can complement each other.
"In the future, we will use glass bottles to pack wine. Look at these bottles, which one do you like." Xiqi signaled the counter staff to take the bottles on the shelf to the table.
Lea looked at each other and saw the marks on the first glass bottle.
The round castle icon has the words written below, produced by Fulin Castle. The green wine bottle and the cork block the seal.
This design is very consistent with her aesthetics, at least it looks more classy than wooden barrel wine.
The second bottle, the bottle also has the castle icon on it, the round iron lid, with sharp jagged edges.
Lea carefully touched her fingers and felt a sharp feeling. She tried to unplug the bottle cap without plucking it, gradually increasing her strength.
"This kind of bottle cap needs to be opened with special tools." Xiqi reminded.
"Why are you so tight?" Lea frowned and looked at the red mark of her thumb.
"The young master said that the tighter the wine seal, the less likely it is to break and the taste is not easy to lose. If the alcohol smell is lost, it will turn into vinegar." Xiqi explained.
"So that's it." Lea suddenly realized.
The third type of wine bottle is a rotating wooden lid, which uses threaded technology, and the size of the bottle mouth can accommodate the fists of an adult.
It seems to be used repeatedly, but in fact, the storage effect is the worst among the three, which is that it has a little advantage. After drinking, the glass bottle can be reused.
In fact, it is completely unnecessary. Compared with the loss of alcohol gas loss, the cost of re-returning glass is only a trivial part.
For the first two, in order to avoid the loss of alcohol, the glass bottle is made very small, with only the width of the thumb.
"This is perfume! You have seen it last time..." Xiqi shook the last bottle, then handed it to the clerk to reclaim it on the shelf.
Lea thoughtful expression: "That's all? Are there any different goods?"
"It's true! What kind of bath do you usually use?"
"A kind of oily bean."
"Young Master has invented a soap that has a particularly good bathing effect. You can try it later."
“…”
Accompanied by Xiqi, Lea came to Fulin Castle. She felt so many feelings when she saw her all the way.
The scene is busy everywhere. New houses are rising from the ground, roads are being repaired, and sewers are being widened.
If the rest of the cities in the Principality are like a pool of stagnant water, then Donggang City is like an active volcano, in the stage of brewing and erupting.
Until now, she has no doubt that the city will enjoy a reputation on the mainland in the future.
"This time, many talents came from the Principality, including three scholars and various craftsmen. The young master wanted experienced shipbuilders, and we found a total of 300 people. They were all because their hometown was affected by famine and turmoil, and they were willing to leave and find a safe place to recuperate."
"These people should not be able to be placed in the Duke of Defen, right?"
"They did not take a boat and set off by land. It is expected that it will take more than half a month to arrive."
Lea was very respectful to Lodell. The wife of the Lord of Fort Fort Fulin, in the daytime lord's condition, her status was approximately equal to that of the Lord.
Besides, Lodell also has the identity of Evelyn's adopted daughter, as well as outstanding personal strength, supported by his subordinates, etc., so there is no need to worry about the consequences of losing favor.
With the advantage of the status of the lord's wife, there will only be more and more refugees and gradually taking over power. It is only a matter of time.
In history, it is not uncommon for the lord's wife to eventually take power, but it is almost rare.
Many of them are lords' husbands cheating on retainers, resulting in rebellion.
Then, no matter which side wins, the result of the lord husband will most likely not be good.
As dusk approaches, Lovi wakes up slowly.
He looked up at the clock and thermometer on the bedroom wall.
At 5:45 pm, the temperature was twenty-three degrees.
His thoughts moved.
There was a movement in the next room immediately.
"Come on! Master!"
The maids on duty were Yun Qi and Xiqi, and they walked into the lord's bedroom.
"Do you want to wear new clothes?" Yun Qi turned out a folded cotton T-shirt from the closet.
In the world of technology, the clothes that are very popular are light gray in the primary colors and even have no patterns. In the world of magic, it is a very broken design. The round neck is put into the top of the head. It is very suitable for lazy people and is extremely convenient.
Luo Wei looked at himself in front of the dressing mirror and nodded with satisfaction.
He only wants comfort, regardless of whether he is decent or not. The tedious dressing process in the past is now optimized to only ten seconds!
"Young Master, you're so fast." Xiqi helped to sort out the slight wrinkles after the clothes were sorted out, feeling that she was useless.
"Isn't it good to be quick?" Luo Wei smiled slightly.
"If you go out, others will be very strange." Yun Qi was tangled and grabbed the hem of the maid's skirt.
"Then add one outside when you go out." Love changed his pajamas to casual pants with belts, stepped on wooden sandals, and walked out in a casual manner.
Lord Lord's new outfit quickly attracted everyone's curious eyes.
It looks more upscale than the tan linen, but it is far less gorgeous than silk.
"This is a cotton dress," Love said to Mussophie.
The panda butler scratched his head in a daze, not knowing what to say.
The rules broke a long time ago.
He can't control it either.
Anyway, it's enough for the young master to be happy...
