Traitor Summoning System [Infrastructure]

The sea fog is very heavy this night, and it is very dangerous to sail in such sea fog.

The sailors took off the sails and let the ship stay on the sea quietly, and make plans when the fog clears tomorrow.

Leonard was originally reading in the cabin, but Lu Bu came in excitedly: "My lord! The fog outside is so thick!"

"Really?" Leonard was a little curious, put down his book and followed Lu Bu out.

Lu Bu has fought on horseback all his life. Although he has seen the sea and been on a boat, he has never sailed on the sea for so long as now.

During this period of time, he was in a state of excitement, and Leonard often saw him running around on the deck.

Leonard followed Lu Bu to work overtime, and was overwhelmed by the scenery in front of him.

The scenery in front of you is easily reminiscent of the poem "Haike talks about Yingzhou, Yantao is faint and trustworthy is hard to find".The sea fog was thick, as if the world was in chaos, and the sailors could not see anyone three meters away from the deck.

But there is a strange light on the surface of the sea, looking backwards, it looks like a large piece of gleaming fish scales, which makes the sea at this moment look even more daunting.

Leonard felt as if he was surrounded by a huge sea beast, slowly exhaling from ancient times.

Leonard shared this idea with Lu Bu, and Lu Bu trembled, "This...is a bit like "Shan Hai Jing."

It was only then that Leonard discovered that Lu Bu had a certain awe towards these monsters... The direct translation is that Lu Bu is afraid of ghosts and monsters, after all, he is an ancient.Leonard did not tease or ridicule, but talked about other things: "If Mr. Yiqing is here, he should be happy to see such a scene."

Lu Bu also quickly adjusted his state: "Yes, such a thick fog really looks like reaching a fairyland and climbing the clouds."

"It is also a joy to be able to walk around this world and see various scenery." Leonard said.

Lu Bu nodded: "Yes, I used to think that the joy of life lies in struggle."

"Your words are very chicken soup." Leonard said.

Lu Bu: "Chicken soup? Where can I get chicken soup?"

Leonard: "Hey, chicken soup is just a saying... But if you want to drink, you can drink fish soup."

"Okay." Lu Bu said.

Leonard said: "You just said that the joy of life is to fight, and then?"

Lu Bu said: "At that time, I thought that men should make contributions, fight for power, kill enemies on the battlefield, and be respected by everyone."

"Yeah." Leonard said.

Lu Bu said with emotion: "It was only later that I realized that the world is too big and there are too many people in it."

Leonard said: "So, why not enjoy the scenery around you?"

"Hmm..." Lu Bu thought for a while, and said, "It's not that I enjoy the scenery around me more. Even now, what I think more about is going to the battlefield to kill enemies and expand the territory. But I have been here for two years, and now I am gradually getting to know each other. There are other things in life besides those."

"Haha, it looks like you got something out of the forced pastoral," Leonard said.

Lu Bu laughed too.

"So, how about the sea fog now?" Leonard asked.

"It's magnificent." Lu Bu said, "After chatting with the lord, my mood improved, so the feeling when looking at the scenery is also different."

"That's good." Leonard said with a smile.

The two didn't stay on the deck for too long. After all, it was too dark and dangerous at this time. Leonard returned to the cabin after a while.

As for He Shen, he became seasick shortly after boarding the ship.The doctor of Green's family wanted to treat him, but He Shen refused in horror.

But let’s be honest, medieval medicine wasn’t all that bad.The most basic theory of medieval medicine is that you are sick not because of external reasons, but because of internal reasons - you are not healthy enough.So the medicine at that time was more aimed at your own body.

Some doctors in the Middle Ages consulted the pulse and also prescribed some herbal medicines.Of course, bloodletting therapy is a classic therapy. In theory, bloodletting can lower body temperature and reduce fever. Reasonable bloodletting is indeed a therapeutic method.But all diseases require bloodletting...is that reasonable?This is unreasonable.

In addition, in addition to taking the pulse, medieval physicians were more inclined to taste with their mouths-this is based on the theory of body fluids.

Ah, you figured it out, what they taste includes but is not limited to the patient's urine, patient's sweat, patient's earwax...

cough.

……

The second brother, Vito, still has expectations for the upcoming marriage. Although he only met Sidney Black, the eldest daughter of the Black family, when he was a child, most of the marriages at this time are like this.

The second brother, Vito, wants to understand that marrying the other's eldest daughter as his second son is actually a bit high-profile, but the current status of the Thorn Green family is higher than that of the Dark Night Black family, so the status of the two parties will not be too different.Both families can gain a lot of benefits from this marriage. Of course, Vito knows that because of his low status, his half-married wedding at Black's house in the dark night will cause him some emotional setbacks, but he thinks it's nothing. From the moment he was born, he was prepared to sacrifice for his family.

What's more, in the current concept of nobles, that is not sacrifice at all, it is a matter of course.

In addition, the education Vito received at home told him that he should love his wife, he and his wife are one, he will respect her, read poems to her, and he will be tolerant if she likes to go outside to play Show understanding, not jealousy.

... Well, not yet married, he is ready to cuckold.cough.

After all, he hadn't had any emotional experience before, so it's normal to expect this.

Everything seems to be fine, except for fellow Leonard.

To be clear, Vito's distaste for Leonard is well documented.

Leaving aside recent events, let's just say that Leonard's body used to be a typical noble dude.

However, Leonard has never done anything harmful to the world, and he can't do it if he is asked to do it. First, not everyone has the ability to do bad things. Second, there are big brother Graham and father Huo Les watched, they would not allow him to do bad things in the true sense.

Vito hates Leonard being favored by everyone, hates Leonard's complacent look, hates Leonard being prettier than him, and hates Leonard's various troubles.

Leonard once had a sudden duel with a nobleman.

Dueling is very popular these days. It is understandable that young people are young and frivolous, throwing gloves to invite a duel if they disagree.

——But this should not happen in the four major families.

Fortunately, according to imperial law, duels are subject to approval.Unsanctioned duels are illegal, especially if there are casualties.

So Leonard and the nobleman naturally applied upwards.

This is the same as the law of the Middle Ages.

The duel application went all the way up, and finally fell to Graham, who approved the duel application.

Then, according to the law, the duelist's weapons are granted by the authorities, and Graham asked his men to find two swords that looked fine on the surface, but were badly damaged inside.

After making an appointment at the time and place, Leonard excitedly went to the duel with his sword.After a few blows, the swords of the two men were both broken. He and the nobleman fought together for a while, and both of them were tired, so the duel was officially over.

...is also a farce.

It was the same in the Middle Ages, and medieval duels were even weirder than that.There are records that two nobles were awarded sheep horns by the authorities to fight. This picture is funny when you think about it.

Similar to the situation on Leonard's side, the horns of the sheep quickly shattered.So the two noble nobles began to bite each other under the watchful eyes of the onlookers.

Then the dossier clearly recorded: one person knocked the other to the ground, and then bit the opponent's lower body, and the opponent screamed in pain, thus losing the game.

Well... it can only be said that reality is often stranger than fiction.

It's really creepy.

Cough, but in a sense, this is really an unscrupulous victory...

It is estimated that the people who came to watch are happy to hear this, and feel that their trip is worthwhile.

Not in vain, not in vain, hehe.

However, since Leonard changed to a chip from China, Vito's dislike for him has actually become less and less, but the dislike is gone, and there is another unspeakable emotion.You know the details, the water is very deep here, and many things are involved, so if you understand it, you will understand it naturally, so I won’t say much.

So in Vito's eyes, what has Leonard done recently?

First, Leonard brought some fishermen onto the boat, and every time the boat stopped, those fishermen started to fish.Although Leonard divided them into fixed areas, Vito still felt uncomfortable.

He went to find his eldest brother Graham, but the eldest brother didn't care, and actually said: "Looking for food anytime and anywhere, this is very conscious of danger in times of crisis."

... a ghost.

Brother Kong's joys and sorrows are not connected, he just feels noisy.

Secondly, Leonard brought all kinds of strange things to the ship, bottles and jars, and I heard that many of them are spices and ingredients.

It was just too much of a pleasure, the same as before.Vito thought angrily.

And besides the bottles and cans, Leonard actually brought a lot of coal. This thing does not meet the aesthetics of the nobility, which is too common.

There are also piles of branches and other strange things. Although theoretically this does not hinder Vito's affairs, Vito just doesn't like it.

But now he doesn't dare to provoke Leonard, for fear that Leonard will scare him.

...It is also pitiful.

That day, Vito finished reviewing the content of his wedding speech in the room, and it was not too early after finishing, so he hurried to the dining room.

When they were young, they would be scolded by their parents for being late for meals.They were grown up now, and Horace didn't teach them that.

When they were young, they were educated. They had to be told to do certain things, and it was best not to do certain things. It was the sons’ own choice to do what they did when they grew up—this is the way Horace Green has always taught.

Although he won't be criticized now, Vito still doesn't want to be late.

As soon as he entered the restaurant, he smelled a strange fragrance.

Hey, what is this fragrance?

Vito could not help slowing down his pace.

The chef's skills of the Thorn Green family are of course good in this era, but it is not easy to perform at sea.

So the meals they ate on board during this period can only be said to be quite average.

After Vito entered the restaurant, his eldest brother Horace cast him a disapproving glance, and he quickly sat down on his seat, and then his attention was attracted by the food in front of him.

The skin of the plate of meat in front of me showed an attractive golden brown color, and the dark translucent sauce was poured on it. The skin was slightly burnt.

This this……

Vito didn't lose his composure on the surface, but a bunch of thoughts suddenly popped up in his mind.

what is this?Why do you suddenly have something that looks so delicious?Did dad hide the good cook...

Then, he heard Leonard introducing to his father Horace: "This is fried salmon with maple syrup. Maple syrup comes from a kind of maple tree. It is a special kind of sugar. It is very delicious. If you are interested I can send some to Linye City."

The production of maple syrup is limited, and it is currently only available in Leonard's territory.

On the contrary, there are more and more honey, and some can be sold to the outside world.

Leonard looks forward to getting a bigger maple grove in the future, so that the maple syrup will continue to flow.

Pan-fried salmon in maple syrup is not Leonard's own creation, it's a famous Canadian dish in itself.

The method is as follows: marinate the salmon with spices first, and fry it with just the right heat. This step is very critical.For ordinary people, what they eat is the taste of food, but for foodies, the taste of food is sometimes even more important than the taste.Serve with some mashed potatoes and vegetables, and finish with a drizzle of maple syrup.

The method of mashed potatoes is relatively simple. Chop the potatoes, add pepper, oil, salt, a little spice and cheese, steam them and grind them into a paste.The mashed potatoes made in this way are delicious in themselves.Leonard also specially told them about potatoes. At that time, many nobles didn't eat potatoes. They thought potatoes were an inelegant food because they grew in the soil.

This fried salmon with maple syrup is rich in nutrients, including the high protein of salmon, the starch of potatoes, and the vitamins of vegetables, all of which are complete.

Of course, in addition to nutrition, it is also very delicious.The fish is smooth and tender, and the maple syrup is fragrant. These excellent fresh ingredients collide with a wonderful feeling.

——The seasoning and cook that Leonard brought showed their talents on the boat.

The salmon itself looked extremely delicious, and it was even more unbearable after being explained vividly by Leonard. After taking a sip, Vito asked with the last aristocratic demeanor: "This is what you asked you to bring slaves these days?" Did you catch any fish?"

"Yes." Leonard said, "In addition to salmon, I have also fished other seafood these days. Come and try this, geoduck. This is very nutritious and more delicious than ordinary shells."

"Sounds like you've eaten shells," said Vito.

Leonard said, "Yes, I eat it often."

Vito: "...Ah? Isn't that inedible?"

Generally, they only eat clams, and basically do not eat other shells.

If the seafood is not fresh, it will be poisonous. In the past, some people vomited and had diarrhea after eating those shells, so people here mistakenly believe that most seafood cannot be eaten.

Leonard: "Because I was too poor when I first arrived in Little Thorn Castle, I don't know why, and there are robbers who come to bully me, hey, I am too poor, I am so pitiful, I can only pick up shells by the sea .”

Vito: "..."

He felt a choke in his throat.

What else can he say.

Vito held out his fork gloomily, wanting to eat a piece of geoduck.

As a result, the geoduck meat was too slippery and he missed it.

So he was even more depressed.

Leonard suppressed a smile and gave him a spoon.

Vito took a piece of geoduck and put it in his mouth, then opened his eyes wide.

It's so delicious!

Geoduck is a delicious shellfish. Both the meat tube and mussel meat have high nutritional value, and its taste is unique among shellfish.It is white and fresh, and it is even more delicious and crisp after being fried.

When frying geoduck, you must pay attention to the heat, and don't let the clam meat get old and spoil the taste.Just the right heat will lock the fresh juice of geoduck.

Vito took a bite, and immediately felt that it was really too fresh, too fragrant, and the taste was incredible!

After all, the most important thing to eat when eating seafood is this umami taste.

Freshly caught seafood, paired with such good cooking techniques and seasonings rewarded by the system, naturally tastes ecstatic.

Even a person like Leonard who has experienced many battles in the sea of ​​​​Chinese delicacies finds it delicious, and the natives of this world naturally feel that it is extremely beautiful.

"Come on, second brother, try this, grilled salmon." Leonard greeted warmly.

Vito didn't quite understand why Leonard was so enthusiastic, but he couldn't bear to say no to the delicious food.

So he took a bite of the grilled salmon with a fork.

Then his eyes widened again.

This grilled salmon is absolutely delicious!It is charred on the outside and tender on the inside. It is really charred on the outside and tender on the inside. It tastes oily and fragrant, but it is not particularly greasy.The sauce smeared on the outside is mixed with the fresh fragrance of the fish itself, which directly triggers a riot of taste buds.Fragrant and spicy, this delicious spicy and fishy taste rages on the tip of the tongue, turning into happiness and satisfaction flooding the whole body.

It's really great!

What's more, the salmon itself is the best time to eat at this time. In autumn, the salmon swims back to lay eggs, so it is plump, fat and delicious.

In addition, it is best to use tender twigs for grilled salmon, so that the grilled salmon will have a special flavor, and it will have more fragrance of twigs and neutralize excessive greasy.That's what Leonard brings in the branches.

"Second brother, this is delicious." Leonard said.

"It's delicious." Of course, Vito will not have trouble with food.

Leonard said: "So there is a reason why I bring those things. I think you seem to complain about why I bring the branches. This is the effect."

Vito: "Er..."

Leonard continued: "Second brother, can you give me more tolerance, every time I do something, second brother always speculates on me maliciously..."

Vito: "..."

He was wrong, he was really wrong.

Vito was so tossed and tossed that even his eldest brother Graham couldn't stand it.

"Leonard, tell me about your time in the east. Mother has always wanted to hear about it." Graham changed the subject in this way, saving Vito.

Long time no see, I should talk about it.

Leonard didn't beat up the second brother who fell into the water. He sorted out his thoughts a little bit, and then picked up the latest things in the territory. He said that the wildlings in the south had been subdued, and he was now called the Monlier people, and that the nobles were Evening Bell Town 'guest'.

"The food in Wanzhong Town is delicious, and the various facilities inside are also very enjoyable, so those nobles are reluctant to go back." Leonard said: "I reluctantly accepted their territory."

Vito heard the wind flustered.What the hell, it's difficult, your skin is too thick.

The eldest brother Graham nodded: "Well, remember to be more reluctant."

Vito: ...

Father Hollus said, "Yeah."

Vito: .........

Well, it turned out that he was the most innocent one.
