"This is ambergris!"
Nalant took a deep breath to calm down, otherwise he was worried that he would jump up with joy and lose the majesty of the lord.
If there is anything that is most precious in this fantasy world, it is naturally the elemental elves.
But if there is anything that sells best among aristocrats, it must be perfume.
Whether in the previous life or in this world, nobles have an obsession with perfume.
Of course, the main reason in previous lives was that Westerners all carry body odor, and perfume has become a necessity in order to cover up body odor.
But in this world, people do not have this common problem because of the existence of fighting spirit.
The real reason they need perfume is to practice fighting spirit.
In addition to meditating, practicing Dou Qi also involves exercising your body with high-intensity exercise.
Men may not think much of such strenuous exercise, but noble ladies and ladies are very concerned about it. After they finish practicing and wash themselves off, they spray fragrant perfume on them, so that they can forget their previous embarrassment.
In addition, people in this era don't pay much attention to hygiene. Sewage basically flows across the city, and excrement is poured directly on the streets. Perfume can purify the air in the house.
Even Nalant's castle does not have such a smell, but the servants spray a little perfume every day to make the room more comfortable and pleasant.
Therefore, even poor lords like Nalant are perfume users, not to mention those wealthy and established nobles.
In this technologically backward world, perfumes are extracted from plants and flowers using the most primitive methods. A good-smelling perfume often represents the rise of a family.
In the past, even if perfume made money, it had nothing to do with Nalant, but it was different now. He got ambergris.
Ambergris is the real 'king of spices'. Whether it is added to perfume or used as sandalwood, it is a top treasure.
"Sir, what is this?" Quick looked at the gray-white stone in his hand that was wet and had a strange smell.
"This is ambergris!"
"Ambergris? Ah...could it be the saliva of a giant dragon? And...it doesn't smell good at all?" Quick's eyes widened. The giant dragon is a legendary existence, but this thing obviously comes from a whale. It's taken out of the body... and its name has the word "fragrant" in it, but it actually doesn't smell good at all.
"Haha!" Nalant did not explain. The ambergris is still wet and smells strange, but once it is dried, the fragrance will come to your nose.
"Quick, take these two pieces of ambergris back to the castle immediately! Also bring the remaining two carriages from the castle!"
"Also, go to Maiye Village and ask all the serfs to come to Doom Village. Remember, let them each bring two kilograms of wheat!"
"Yes, sir!"
Quick took all the instructions to heart and quickly returned to the castle.
Narant, on the other hand, came to the Village of Doom with his remaining men.
"I've met the lord!"
"I've met the lord!"
At this time, the villagers of Doom Village gathered at the entrance of the village with happy smiles.
Next to them were several hills of whale meat.
Everyone knows that the lord has obtained such whale meat. They have worked so hard just now, and no matter what, they can be rewarded with a full meal. Try what it feels like to be full after eating meat.
"Kenby Cowdung!"
"Lord, the young one is here!"
"Now ask all the villagers to line up and come over to receive the whale meat, each person... fifty pounds!" Nalant said calmly.
"Ah... fifty pounds?" Kenbi Cowdung was shocked, and the serfs around him were also shocked.
"What? Do you have any opinions?"
"No objection, no objection! Thank you Lord for the gift!"
"Thank you Lord for the gift!"
Kenbi Cowdung shook his head like a rattle and thanked Nalant with tears in his eyes.
The same was true for other serfs, and the thin girls cried so much.
This is meat, and it’s still fifty pounds!
In the past, other lords, let alone sending meat, would be thankful as long as they were not as forced and extortionate as Anthony was a few days ago.
"Well, but remember, this piece of meat is given to you on credit, and you will have to work for me to repay it in the future." Nalant nodded with satisfaction, but in order to prevent the serfs from becoming lazy if they had enough food, he Still need to put it another way.
"Yes, Lord!" Even they themselves belong to the Lord, so the serfs naturally don't care whether they borrow or not.
They work hard every day just to have enough food. As long as they can have enough food, it doesn't matter whether they work in the fields or help the lord.
Soon, more than a hundred villagers in Maiye Village began to line up, and then one by one they stepped forward and happily carried fifty pounds of whale meat home.
Not to mention, although the serfs were thin, holding the meat now was like holding bundles of banknotes in the previous life, and they did not feel heavy at all.
"Sir! The villagers from Maiye Village are here!"
About an hour and a half later, Quick had turned back and behind him were many villagers from Maiye Village.
The villagers of Maiye Village did not know what was happening at this time. They walked forward with their heads down and holding the two kilograms of grain in their hands.
"I've seen the Lord!" The first person to arrive was Peter Leather Boots.
After meeting the lord last time, Peter felt that the lord should be a benevolent nobleman, so this time he was notified by Quaker and he tried his best to get all the serfs to come with food.
"Well! Get up!"
"Thank you, Lord!" Peter and the villagers stood up cautiously.
"Ah! Is that meat?" When they stood up, they suddenly saw several white whale meat mountains behind Nalant from the corner of their eyes, and they all became stunned. .
This shocked them no less than when Kenbi Cowdung and others saw the 'giant sea monster'.
"Listen up, villagers of Maiye Village! The great Lord Nalant has shown mercy and will allow you to use two kilograms of grain in exchange for the opportunity to borrow fifty kilograms of meat on credit today!"
The guards who had been instructed by Nalant long ago began to shout to the villagers of Maiye Village.
"Huh? Fifty pounds of meat?"
The villagers of Maiye Village were in an uproar. They originally thought that the lord was going to confiscate their two kilograms of wheat, but they didn't expect that he was going to give them fifty kilograms of meat!
As for the word "credit", they automatically ignored it like the villagers of Doom Village.
"Thank you Lord for the gift!"
The serfs who had just stood up from the ground fell to their knees again.
Next, just like before, each villager in Maiye Village received fifty pounds of whale meat.
"Ding, the system side mission has been completed, and the reward: the second Lady of Doom is about to appear!"
At this moment, a system prompt sounded in Nalant's ear.
"Eh! Is this done?" Nalant was stunned. He originally thought that this task would take some time to complete. After all, an adult usually needs one kilogram of food per day.
The meat Nalant distributed was only fifty pounds per person, which was not enough to satisfy everyone for three or four months.
But this is just a personal inertial thinking of Narant. How can the serfs in this world reach the dietary level of the previous life? Even on a normal day, they only consume half a catty of food and maintain a level of half-starved and half-starved.
Although he only gave him fifty kilograms of food this time, it was meat and was much more nutritious than the hard black bread.
The serfs only need to take the whale meat back and dry it into dried fish, which will be enough for more than three months based on their previous food intake.
