The first time Lodell ate steamed buns, he thought the taste was quite ordinary and nothing special. It was not as delicious as the white bread with honey, but it tasted much better than the hard black bread.

At least it feels soft and not difficult to swallow.

Although the taste is a little light, it is also very good to fill the belly.

Eat one at a time, she disagreed and said, "That's it?"

"Yes." Luo Wei took one by himself and signaled Lan Lan to eat one and try it.

"It's just an ordinary food, worth your waste of time?" Lodell questioned.

"Worth it." Luo Wei replied affirmatively: "Do you know how much the steamed bun cost?"

"I think a copper penny is expensive." Lodell said that he was depressing the price.

"One copper plate is equal to ten pieces of bread or five pieces of black bread, and it's nothing wrong with you thinking it's expensive." Lovey paused for a moment: "But what do you say if it's lower than bread?"

Lodell frowned: "Don't joke, how could it be cheaper than dough and black bread?"

Lovi smiled without saying a word, with an expression you didn't know: "Lanlan, what do you think?"

"It's delicious!" Lan Lan nodded vigorously. In less than a while, the big steamed bun was put into her stomach, with some debris remaining on the corner of her mouth: "Young master, why didn't the steamed bun be found out earlier? The black bread is so unpalatable..."

Luo Wei did not respond to Lanlan's complaint: "You told the kitchen to use up all the noodles, steam the steamed buns and distribute them to everyone."

"Okay, young master." Lan Lan owed her body and slowly retreated.

In front of Lodell, she was very cautious in everything, for fear of being picked.

In the kitchen, the chef Emu was kneading the dough. While kneading, he hummed with moaning eyes.

"slim Shady!"

"Blue, is there something wrong?"

"The young master said, use up all the noodles and don't waste it."

"Okay, I get it."

The blue-haired maid hurriedly turned back, and she had no warehouse to enter the living room, and stopped standing guard at the door.

In the conference room, there was a faint sound of speech.

"Okay, go do your own business."

"What do you care about me?"

"Okay! If you want to follow, follow me! Stinky sister!"

Lovey let Lodell follow him, shouting Lanlan with a bamboo basket, and came to the puddle by the lake of Fulinbao: "Lanlan, pick up all the barks of this pit."

Lan Lan squatted down without saying a word and put the soaked bark into the bamboo basket in hand in hand: "Young Master, should you take the rest?"

"No, let's soak for a few more days." Luo Wei took a deep breath and suppressed his restless mood.

It's finally possible to start, can it succeed?

The experiment place is on the fourth floor of Fulin Castle. Since the first, second and third floors are temporarily arranged for civilians to live temporarily, there are only free rooms on the fourth floor.

The tools are ready. A stone pool filled with water, a stone mortar that mashs the bark, and a water-permeable fabric that replaces the paper-making bamboo curtains, as well as a stove and an iron pot for burning.

Lan Lan followed Love's instructions to put the soaked bark into the iron pot, added an appropriate amount of burning ash from the grass and trees to cook, and covered the pot with a lid: "Young Master, how long will it take to cook?"

"Cook until dawn tomorrow, the fire will not stop, and the water will not dry." About ten hours, Lovey thought.

Lan Lan was in a very difficult situation. She felt that this would affect her job: "Young master, it's been too long..."

"You can see it first, and call the guards on night shift here later."

During noon, everyone is busy. Everyone is in their own position. The extra staff has arranged to make dumplings, and there will be no idle people in the short time. Besides, Lan Lan also needs to be familiar with the entire process and help you run errands in the future, Luo Wei thought.

Lodell did not ask about Lovie's arrangements for Lanlan, but was a little curious: "What are you doing? Is it okay to eat after soaking the bark for so long?"

Only thinking about eating it, Lovey shook his head in a funny way, and did not hide it from Lodell: "I want to invent a lighter material to replace the bamboo slips."

"Someone has invented writing on the bark, and it is not as useful as bamboo slips." Lodell kindly reminded.

"Whether it is easy to use or not, you will know in a while." A mysterious smile appeared on Luo Wei's face.

Dong, Dong, Dong...

The forging sound was very rhythmic. After a while, the panda man let out a long breath.

Iron embryos are forged to reduce the carbon content in them and make them more resilient.

This is the principle of the hundred forging into hardness.

Of course, farm tools do not require such cumbersome craftsmanship. They are not as demanding as weapons. Also, Mussoph discovered that iron made from coke at high temperatures is naturally tougher than iron made from ordinary coal.

The iron produced by ordinary coal is too crisp and it is useless if you don’t knock it repeatedly.

"My housekeeper! Have you played enough?" Evelyn grabbed the hair of the panda man's neck.

"Mr. Evelyn, I'm not playing. I'm making farm tools for the young master." Mussophie said unjustly.

"I hired a housekeeper, not a blacksmith!" Evelyn stressed, her eyes swept around disdain: "You can just find someone to help you with such a small matter, so why don't you do it yourself? I won't allow you to come to the iron shop in the future."

"Don't, ma'am, tell me some reason." Mussophie was arrested.

Although the panda is big, it is like a cub when it is slightly raised in the hands of the witch Evelyn.

The selfless butler is on duty.

Those who came to take refuge in the castle were mercilessly expelled.

Before leaving, Evelynren sent out a batch of supplies. Some sent out clothes, some sent coins, and some were lucky enough to send out two more steamed buns that were hot.

Then, Fulinbao started a major cleaning under the organization of the butler.

People have to clean up the garbage these days.

Sweep the floor, mop the floor, wipe the walls, ventilate and breathable, etc.

It seemed to be clean, but in fact, Lovi felt it was not clean and asked to sprinkle quicklime everywhere.

So, the problem arose.

"Young Master, what exactly is quicklime?" Mussophie tilted her round head.

"It is the ashes burned by stones in the furnace." Luo Wei explained briefly, adding: "It can kill invisible insects and drive away filth."

"Sounds useful!" Mussophie suggested burning some out.

Of course, Love had no objection: "Remember to find the gray stone."

“How long does it take to burn?”

"I haven't burned it before, you can burn it for two days. Anyway, it's enough to burn it into ashes..."

The hot steamed buns were out of the cage again.

Love invites Evelyn and Mussophie to try one.

Both of them had very average reactions.

Evelyn is used to eating various delicacies, and the Panda Butler prefers fresh tender bamboo.

It was only when Lovi mentioned the cost of steamed buns that he was moved.
