Before leaving for the ball at the Duke''s castle, Renault had a lot of speculation.


    He thought he could see the gorgeous dance floor, with thick carpet on the ground, lots of flowers around, and countless thick candles shining brightly on the dance floor.


    He thought that he would hear classical music with a little religious characteristics. Although they are more serious and less lively, in this world deeply influenced by the patriarchal church, it is difficult for those secular music with lighter tunes to be so elegant.


    He also thought that he would taste the world''s high-end red wine, or nectar, fruit wine and other drinks, although the latter two are exclusively for ladies and wives.


    As for the more common wheat wine, generally speaking, this kind of coarse taste, bitter drink of common people is almost impossible to appear in the aristocratic dance.


    He even thought that he would see a lot of colorful white girls. They were dressed in exquisite dresses, their faces were elaborately decorated, and they were wearing all kinds of expensive jewelry. They danced with music and showed the unique style of young women.


    Well, there are a lot of gentlemen who are well-dressed, but the point is not


    However, the real scene is quite different from what Renault imagined.


    The dance floor is well dressed, and the lighting is more luxurious than Renault imagined. There are six gorgeous large magic stone lamps hanging above the dance floor. The lighting effect is no worse than that of the earth''s large chandeliers.


    But in other ways, Renault was disappointed.


    Music?


    No!


    One of the only two bands in leiyunbao belongs to the local father church, but they have already withdrawn with the church.


    The other one is from a local theater, but the situation is very bad recently. The theater has been shut down and the whole theater has moved to the south to avoid the coming war.


    As a result, the butler of the Duke castle was embarrassed to find that there was no band in the big Leiyun castle.


    So why doesn''t the Duke keep his own band?


    The answer is, I can''t afford it.


    A decent band, composed of at least 20 musicians, costs in salary, clothing, musical instruments and other aspects add up to a maximum of 500 jinnals a year.


    It doesn''t sound like a lot of money, but the problem is that musicians are needed only at large banquets and dances. Who is so busy holding dances every day?


    Even if there is leisure, there is not so much money!


    A dance or banquet can be held at least 1 or 200 jinnals, and at most 5 or 600 jinnals. Even the Duke of Castro can only hold 5 or 6 jinnals a year at most.


    Just for a few large-scale activities, he spent 500 jinnals to raise a band. The cost performance ratio is too low. Even a noble like the Duke of Castro felt that it was very, very uneconomic and did not want to do such a stupid thing.


    In the kingdom of thousand lakes, among all the nobles, only the king kept a royal band.


    When Renault got the news from Miss aleeti in his arms, he couldn''t help thinking.


    Don''t think about it!


    The occasion when he "cuddled" miss allietti was not "in bed", but on the dance floor.


    The story of the band reminds Renault of the "conch of Haiyin" found near Kulun island when he first went to the mainland.


    At this time, he suddenly found that if he could analyze the secret of the sea sound snail and invent the magic power record player, it would definitely be very popular with the nobility.


    As long as you buy a magic record player, you can have a band with you. In the future, you will never encounter the embarrassment of not hiring a band. Pro, do you want one?


    Of course!


    Even the Dukes would encounter this kind of thing, not to mention the middle and small nobles.


    Ah, let alone a dance without music. It''s a super awkward dance. Without background music, Renault always feels like a fool by twisting his body on the dance floor, which makes him feel uncomfortable.


    Miss allietti was acutely aware of Renault''s mood. She chuckled and whispered:


    "Mr. Renault, shall we have a drink?"


    Renordon breathed a long sigh of relief.


    As a mechanical dog from China, he has never been to a dance. He is not good at dancing. If it was not for the super control of the body, he might have trampled on miss allietti''s two little feet.


    They walk through the crowd on the dance floor and come to the rest area next to the dance floor. In the center of the rest area is a long wooden table with many silver cups filled with red wine.


    Next to them, there are maids who constantly take away the silver cups they have drunk and put on the cleaned ones. Then there are maids who fill the silver cups with wine in a special silver pot for guests to take at any time.


    Renault looked at it and found that there was only wine on the table, no honey wine or fruit wine, which was quite different from what he expected.After taking a glass of wine, Renault took a sip and showed his teeth.


    Because the wine with obvious sour taste, quite difficult to drink.


    Where is this special wine?


    It''s just grape juice!


    Just by the feeling on his tongue, Renault immediately judged that the alcohol content of this wine was pitifully low, which also showed that the brewing technology of foreign wine was relatively backward, and the control of fermentation process was quite unstable.


    Allietti immediately noticed Renault''s slightly frowned brow. She was a little embarrassed and asked:


    "is it because the wine is too sour?"


    Without waiting for Renault''s reply, she said:


    "this is the wine made in our manor. The sour taste is more obvious than that made by the church. Unfortunately, the church has left. We can''t buy the wine from the Church..."


    Renault shook his head, turned the silver cup in his hand, and said casually:


    "there are many ways to solve the problem of sour taste. As far as I know, adding sugar is the most simple and easy way..."


    At this point, he suddenly shut up.


    Because Renault suddenly realized that he was stupid.


    MMP, it seems that labor and capital have even said something they shouldn''t have


    On the earth, "sugar" is almost a well-known method, but here is the alien world, which is a valuable trade secret.


    According to what aleeti just said, even the father''s church, which has the strongest brewing technology, does not make very good wine. If it is put on the earth, even dogs will not drink too much.


    If Renault can produce better quality wine, it will be able to win over all its competitors and easily occupy the wine market of the whole foreign world.


    What does that mean?


    A steady stream of ginnals!


    What''s more, at least in millions!


    Renault sighed, ah, how can labor and capital be so stupid? When you see a beautiful girl, you can''t help but want to show off. Let''s let it slip


    but it''s OK, he only said "sugar" two words, did not mention more details, Ali Etty is only the other world woodlouse, lack of enough knowledge, she does not understand the principle of wine making, it is difficult to deduce specific operation method.


    Wine brewing, in fact, is the process that yeast will continuously transform the sugar in grapes into wine. When the alcohol content is improved to a certain extent, yeast will be killed by alcohol.


    At this point, the fermentation can be considered complete.


    If the sugar content of grape is insufficient, it will not reach the alcohol concentration to kill the yeast during brewing. Other means must be used to stop fermentation and avoid excessive fermentation, such as lowering the temperature or heating the wine.


    In the alien world, due to the variety factor, there is basically no grapes with enough sugar, so the fermentation can only be stopped manually.


    This also brings new problems. When is the best time to stop?


    No one knows!


    So wine making has become a problem of probability.


    Stop in time, is good wine, stop too early or too late, wine will bring obvious sour taste.


    Add sugar, just can solve this problem.


    At that time, there is no need to add enough sugar until the fermentation is stopped.


    This method not only makes the fermentation process more controllable, but also greatly improves the alcohol concentration, so that the final product is closer to "wine", and is no longer just a little wine flavored grape juice.


    But you can''t add sugar at will. You have to pay attention to when and how much.


    more importantly, woodlouse, do you have any sugar?


    After hearing Renault''s words, aleetie was puzzled. She looked up at Renault slightly and said in an adoring tone:


    "Mr. Renault, you are indeed a learned and wise man. You even know how to make wine. Can you tell us in detail what is'' sugar ''


    Renault glanced at allietti''s pretty face and couldn''t help saying "ha ha".


    You''d better pretend to be a ghost to tell you!


    At the moment, he can confirm that this pretty girl is a playwright. She deliberately pretends to be silly, white and sweet to paralyze herself and want to get more information from her mouth.


    Then I think of aleetiph''s frequent kindness to him as soon as she met him. Even at the ball, as soon as he entered the door, aleetipe went directly to him and danced with him on the dance floor for a long time.


    What''s wrong with this situation.


    Does he have a "stud aura"? All the girls they met were crying and shouting to send them to the door (bed)?


    Think too much


    As the granddaughter of the Duke, aliette''s status is not noble. As for kneeling and licking a person of unknown origin? Even if he is extraordinary, what?


    Now it seems that aleeti must have some kind of mission, deliberately approached him, and talked from him, and she almost succeeded in getting a valuable trade secret.As the old saying goes, the more beautiful a girl is, the more special she is. If she is not careful, she will be deceived


    I''m still my sister


    So, who is the main messenger behind allietti?


    The old face of Prince Castro immediately appeared in Renault''s mind.


    Besides this old dog, who else?


    What is the ulterior purpose of this old man''s frequent courtship to labor and capital?


    these aristocratic peers, though looking at woodlouse, are really not to be underestimated.


    After trying to understand all this, Renault suddenly felt a sense of urgency.


    He stares directly at allietti''s pretty face, puts on a look of color and soul, and says with admiration:


    "miss allietti, you are really a wonderful beauty..."


    "It''s hard to say exactly how to add sugar for a while. Let''s find a quiet room and have a good chat..."


    As he spoke, he extended his right paw to aleetie''s right hand, holding her white right hand, and his fingers were still rubbing her skin.
