Do the copper coins stored in the warehouse have much currency value to the economic status of Roseburg?
A large number of copper coins were supposed to be the most common currency in circulation, but now it has largely given way to silver coins.
Copper coins are placed in warehouses, and the dry and cold weather makes them extremely difficult to corrode. But the Roman copper coins are only kept in the warehouse, which is really a waste of metal.
Copper coins can be cast into arrow clusters, armor pieces, and other tools and weapons, and Rurikben also deliberately does it, such as casting a lot of lamp holders.
The mountainous area of Roseburg has copper veins, and its scale is far less than that of iron ore. It is still meaningful to develop local copper resources.
Because smelting bronze does not require a blast furnace.
There are as many as eight traditional furnaces where copper coins and tin blocks are mixed into eight crucibles of extremely hot molten metal water.
After the special clay mold is fired, the special plane parts are carefully polished.
They were polished smoothly, and finally ushered in the moment of casting.
After the blacksmiths smashed the dry-hot molds with their hammers, the shiny golden bronze casting is complete!
Two sets of bronze grinding disc components are completed under the joint casting of bronze water in eight crucibles.
Rurik consumed a large amount of copper coins for grinding discs. Some people say that this is a manifestation of the Duke's extravagance. Some people speculate about the purpose of the Duke who insists on ordering the blacksmith to cast rare large bronze pieces.
Most people don't know this at all, and everyone's mind is full of the summer expedition to Karelia. It is said that it was an unknown and brave enemy, and everyone just polished their weapons and waited for a battle.
It was the young blacksmith of Rurik who was in charge of the casting of this large piece. Kamnet supervised the matter. After the casting was completed, he gave all participants a sum of money.
The sun shines on the bronze grinding disc that reveals the true face, and the glittering appearance is simply blind.
Cam, you half covered your face with your rough hands: "My lord. You said this is a mill? It looks weird. Can you really grind wheat into flour quickly?"
"Of course, it was designed by me, it must be deliberate!" Rurik pinched his waist.
Obviously he is already preparing for the event of going to Balmerk, and Rurik seems to have deliberately spared time to order these things to be cast.
There were many blacksmiths and iron smelters who were helpers rushing to the casting site to watch, some unlucky guys who looked vigorous and accidentally fell off the heights.
Old Cravason didn't say anything, Kawei struggled to pick up the cooled bronze grinding disc.
"Ah! What kind of weight is this? Rurik, you..." Kawei gritted his teeth, just erected the round millstone, and then put it down again.
He twisted his arms and panted: "This thing is too heavy."
"It's just half a stika (about half a meter) in diameter, so you're tired? Have you become weak?" Rurik teased deliberately.
Kawei wiped a sweat: "Forgive me. You must know the weight of this thing better than I do."
"Then continue to do things as I want, and find a strong man to move me to the palace."
"Okay. I hope it can really grind a lot of flour."
Most of the Russ’ concept of grinding is a stone grinding rod. As for the rotary stone grinding, it originated from Asia. It was the Romans who brought this Eastern technology to Britain and northern Europe. It's just that it was a high-tech implementation for many Germanic tribes, and many barbarians began to open up wasteland to become farmers after the collapse of Western Rome, and there is a reason to use the mill.
Rurik also had no way of knowing whether the rotating stone mill really came from a country in the far east. Perhaps it was first invented in the ancient Mesopotamia. However, he believed very much that the technology of the heavy stone mill must come from the Far East. The working principle of the two heavy-duty tools that process grains into powder is different, and the results are similar. It's just that the rotating grinding disc can grind finer powder, and the rotating stone is very efficient.
Perhaps it makes more sense to make heavy-duty mills. Because of personal factors, Rurik still likes rotating metal mills. As for why he is obsessed with bronze mills, it is just that this thing is easy to manufacture. If conditions permit, I will not hesitate to build a heavy-duty stainless steel mill.
Kawei is not a fighter. He participated in the war and subconsciously studied the buildings and tools of the British residents. He knew the rotating stone mill, but Master Rurik insisted on making a bronze rotating mill!
In the beginning, there were only two grinding disc components, and then there were two more to be cast.
In the cement courtyard of the Duke of Ross’s palace, a stone-wood structure house has been completed. It has a large area and is extremely empty inside, and some of the stone piers placed inside appear to be abrupt from the outside.
The quiet house became lively, and Rülik’s female relatives were on the window sill on the third floor, and they were almost fainted as they watched the people carrying the huge gold nugget downstairs.
That's gold!
Indeed, the color of bronze cast from special materials is indeed very similar to gold to these girls.
The gold is more shiny, and the bronze is much bleak.
The grinding disc and the base are smooth as a whole, but there are a large number of very special grooves inside. These grooves are the most important thing. Their special shape ensures that the ground wheat particles are constantly pushed to the outside. Workers only need to carefully collect the flour. That's it.
It is a very traditional oriental grinding disc, with simple structure and better material than stone.
The brawny man furiously lifted the glittering grinding disc and snapped it up with the bearing on the bronze base.
Its practical experiment was carried out for the first time. Onlookers watched Rurik personally pour wheat grains into the funnel of the feed inlet, and a strong man pushed the wooden pole to turn the grinding disc.
It has no ball bearings, not even roller bearings. It is a hard-contact bearing, which is lubricated by grease to ensure that it does not require too much effort to rotate.
It looks cumbersome, but it's okay, and it quickly displayed its powerful abilities.
Because the coarse whole wheat flour that has been ground to a very fine degree has been continuously pushed out by the mill!
Rurik stuffed the yellow-white coarse flour into his mouth to taste the taste. He was not too happy. On the other hand, the onlookers were already having a lively chat with smiling faces.
The two bronze millstones were completed in a relatively low-key manner. It is a great innovation for the Ross people, but whether it is great or not will it be truly felt when people can eat a lot of bread and delicate dough.
Why treat a strong man as a donkey? Two docile reindeer were pulled to the shed, they replaced the existence of the donkey, and Rurik had no doubt about the endurance of these large animals. He actually didn't have a choice. The animal power available here in Roseburg was either a reindeer or a pony. The price-performance ratio of mules was actually the best, but now he had no choice but to retreat to the female deer with antlers cut off.
The maid from Britain was quickly admitted to be in charge of the mill as work. They know mills and rotating stone mills, but...
They were shocked, and when they learned that taking good care of the reindeer lamo, they could get enough toast or bread every day, and they gladly accepted it.
At least in terms of eating and putting, Lord Duke is much more merciful than the nobles in his hometown.
This is no more than an opportunity to show the strength of the Ross people. The old priest from Lindsay and all the maids captured from Britain visited this "golden mill" under Rurik's order.
"This is gold! How great it is! The rich duke uses gold as a millstone." The old priest Lindsay clutched his heart, and he had to admit that Rose was rich.
As for the maids, they have bought meat every day since they came to Ross. They were pleasantly surprised by the kindness of the conqueror when they were full, and wondered why the conqueror would not grind their noodles. Now, they realize their simplicity.
Then a woman murmured: "Maybe their hoes are also golden."
Rurik did not regard the completion of the bronze mill as a good thing to eulogize, but his family was late for the noodles the first time.
noodles? Do not.
Rurik’s female relatives were forced to learn to use chopsticks, and even the Queen Mary, after rigorous practice, she felt that her right hand was already extremely flexible. As for eating with her hands, Mary felt that it was the most shameful vulgarity.
They subconsciously linked "wheat" and "rope" together, and gave the noodles an appropriate combination of "wheat string".
Rurik didn't care, watching the steaming noodles in his bowl, the dislocation of time and space spontaneously arises.
The family gathered together, and the top nobles of Rose were on the second floor of the palace, enjoying the boring lo-noodles that would be so common for the Orientals in a thousand years.
But for them, this is better than everything!
The flour is sifted, and the delicate noodles made from European high-gluten wheat are more resilient. As for the stewed seeds, they are a thick sauce made from onion, seal meat, carrot pieces, salt, and thyme picked last year.
They eat noodles like Orientals. Once they feel the taste is excellent, they all become coyotes.
Otto was surprised to see that he still didn't know how to use chopsticks. Fortunately, his son also prepared a sterling silver fork for himself. It is wonderful to eat this kind of "wheat rope" with a fork.
The noodles were heavily stained with thick sauce on his beard, and Otto opened a large mouth with a lot of teeth missing. He was pleasantly surprised by the elasticity of the noodles and the softness after chewing.
I don’t know how many sensations act on the mind, turning it into a desire to eat.
Happiness permeated Otto's wrinkled face!
Rurik knew that his father had a big appetite, and he was so used to this life, eating noodles must be fierce. Who would have thought that Otto would finish a bowl of Lo Noodles in no time.
"Are you so hungry?" Niya scolded with a smile, and Otto randomly responded with a full hiccup, which made everyone laugh.
Even the little baby Velika laughed.
"A hundred times more delicious than boiled wheat!" Otto carried the silver bowl, and went to the barrel to give himself another bowl, topped with bittern Meimei and continued to eat.
Rurik looked surprised, his father's appearance even puzzled him.
Otto, why are you so skilled.
"I will eat this every day from now on." Otto finally stuffed his stomach with high-concentration carbohydrates. This is the first time in his life that he has this special sense of comfort and the feeling of soaring blood sugar. Ordinary people in this era are afraid that they will last their entire lives. Can't understand.
Otto looked like an old naughty boy, yelling to share a good meal with the old man, and even eat this all at once.
"Is that enough?" Rurik asked deliberately.
"Do you have other tricks?"
"Of course. We are going to make a lot of toasted bread."
The essence of toast lies in fermentation. Although high-quality yeast is not easy to obtain, baking soda can be easily obtained.
At first there were two bronze mills, and soon there were four. They seem to be limited in number, and their combat effectiveness should not be underestimated.
A large amount of coarse flour was made overnight, and Rurik ordered the servants from Britain to work through the night, even if the reindeer was resting, let them do it.
Rurik set a demanding amount of tasks for them, and he felt that his measures were not wrong. Because Rose must reserve enough high-quality dry food for a difficult winter expedition!
The technique of baking bread was first invented in Mesopotamia in 10,000 BC. At that time, baking was nothing more than a lump of hard dough. When the technology spread to Egypt, the Egyptian fermentation technology left the bread. The qualitative change of taste.
It was passed to Rome, with a complete set of flour milling, kneading, fermentation and baking techniques passed on to the barbarians everywhere, and even to the people on the Baltic Sea coast and the dense forests of Northeast Europe.
The Slavic women on Lake Ilmen who married into Roseburg generally know how to use a stone grinder to push wheat grains to make flour. Although Novgorod is too cold and more suitable for growing oats, once they imported wheat from Southern Smolensk, they made bread without hesitation.
They all think that oatmeal cannot be made into bread. If oat flour is ground, its loose starch structure is indeed difficult to stick into dough.
Oatmeal, Rurik really knows its other name in the East, namely noodles.
Of course, oatmeal has disadvantages in this respect. If it is mixed with wheat, the problem that it is difficult to make a trip will be solved.
Oats are easier to store and harder to spoil than wheat. The two grains are mixed together and ground into a mixed powder by four bronze mills overnight.
The grinding efficiency of a bronze mill with one revolution is better than that of a woman holding a stone grindstone and a stone slab for a hundred times.
Even if it was later in the night that a woman pushed the wood pole to make the millstone rotate, it was not efficient.
The four bronze mills went into battle, and it took no time to grind a hundred pounds of wheat into coarse flour. Rurik was pleased that he quickly got a lot of flour.
It's food for ordinary people, so the germ and bran layer can't be sifted out with twine gauze.
When the starch inside the wheat can be fully bonded, even if a large amount of bran is mixed, there is no other problem except to make the overall taste of the bread rough.
Ordinary people do not have the qualifications to be picky eaters. Men and women earn wealth by working and then wake up the Duke to buy food. This was impossible in the past. Wheat is still very precious. They make their own bread and bread, even if the bread crumbs are picked up and eaten.
Furthermore, some rotten bread is processed deeply like pickled sauerkraut.
No, when the Slavic Wives of Roseburg really started making bread, there were many bright-minded women who deliberately performed a special brewing skill in front of their Ross husbands.
Is that brewing? Do not! Some of the baked bread and unleavened bread were crushed into crumbs again, like the traditional Viking ale, and they began to brew a unique Slavic alcoholic beverage-Kvass.
At this time, Rurik had only recently learned about it. Because the original Kvass from Roseburg has been taken by some Slavic wives to their own table. Its taste is not like bitter and slightly sweet ale, but it smells sour and tastes completely sweet. This life lacking beverages immediately brings new pleasures.
These are the huge changes brought about by the large amount of wheat from Britain entering Roseburg.
But the biggest change is that Duke Ross actually started to bake bread!
The potter's potter received the Duke's money and semolina in kind as a reward.
Flour is not only a reward, but a test product for them.
Naturally fermenting the dough is a skill known in ancient Egypt. In fact, most people in the Rus know this, but because the wheat is an absolute delicacy, it is difficult to bake bread.
But Arik's second wife, Asraki, is a master at baking bread!
A boy was born smoothly. He was called Gustav, the son of Asraki and the second son of Arik. He has now learned to walk.
But Yasilaqi was not willing to be an ordinary woman at all, and her toasting skills were immediately revealed.
The pottery craftsmen made a batch of loaves, which were strange in taste and appearance.
In the unexpected situation of Rülik, Aslaqi brought her servant and her husband Arik to accompany him, wrapped a large ball in coarse cloth, and brought this treasure to the Duke in the evening.
The mill was still making a squeaky noise, and the British servants wearing turbans sat casually eating dough and talking and laughing, and people evaded them when they suddenly came.
"Let's go and see what my brother is eating. Ah, it's so delicious here, I'm hungry."
Aslaqi is now only twenty years old. As a Nordic woman, she is in her most beautiful years.
The thing she was holding in her arms smelled like a scent, and the brown syrupy liquid in the pottery that the servant held in her hand was a Slavic delicacy made by Peravina. Peravina is only due to the fact that she is too ordinary and has a second child. She is more willing to continue to take care of the children at home.
Arik came suddenly, but he saw his brother, uncle, and the women's dinner at the table as suddenly.
"It's all wheat rope (noodles)?"
Otto had just drunk a little bit of strong alcohol, an old face flushed with a casual look at his nephew, and muttered: "Say early if you want to come, let's eat together. Oh! Did you bring a gift? "
"Yes, sir." With a smile, Yasraki opened the linen cloth herself, and made two large pieces of brownish-white gradation loaf.
Rurik was taken aback. He saw at a glance that the bread was 10,000 times better than the pottery craftsman who made the oven!
"Sister, sit down quickly." Rurik said excitedly, slapping the table.
Aslaqi nodded, displayed the pottery urn again, then pulled out the cork, and suddenly a strange sour fragrance diffused.
No, there is still sweetness in it.
Rurik stood up suddenly, his DNA moved: "kwas!"
"Oh. You know? Peravina did it." Asraki was also taken aback.
"Yes! She is a Slavic woman. Quickly, put the dough and the pot on the table. Is this a gift for me? I want to taste it."
Aslaqi nodded. She and Arik are indeed presenting gifts~www.novelhall.com~ and greetings from family relatives.
Of course, she noticed that Roseburg was making flour on a large scale, and that Master Rurik was instructing his men to make large-scale flour cakes and purchase them immediately, and to start making bread in large quantities.
These are all in order to take the road of ice and snow, climb over the iceberg and head to Balmerk for the final preparation of dry food.
the only? Aslaqi is the daughter of a big businessman, and her vision is very long-term.
"If my family is favored by the Duke of Ross for making bread, my children will continue to be honored. I have to develop my skills, build my own mill, and..."
Aslaqi wanted to show off her skills in front of Rurik, and one of her main goals was to have the qualifications to supply the Ross army with high-quality food.
She has the soul of a businessman and clearly sees the huge benefits in it, hoping to take a shortcut to restore and expand the family power.
Her children have no right to inherit Arik's wealth, young Gustav will inherit his grandfather's family name. The old Harald family will be revived by a woman who is good at making bread. for sure!

The pottery craftsmen made a batch of loaves, which were strange in taste and appearance.
In the unexpected situation of Rülik, Aslaqi brought her servant and her husband Arik to accompany him, wrapped a large ball in coarse cloth, and brought this treasure to the Duke in the evening.
The mill was still making a squeaky noise, and the British servants wearing turbans sat casually eating dough and talking and laughing, and people evaded them when they suddenly came.
"Let's go and see what my brother is eating. Ah, it's so delicious here, I'm hungry."
Aslaqi is now only twenty years old. As a Nordic woman, she is in her most beautiful years.
The thing she was holding in her arms smelled like a scent, and the brown syrupy liquid in the pottery that the servant held in her hand was a Slavic delicacy made by Peravina. Peravina is only due to the fact that she is too ordinary and has a second child. She is more willing to continue to take care of the children at home.
Arik came suddenly, but he saw his brother, uncle, and the women's dinner at the table as suddenly.
"It's all wheat rope (noodles)?"
Otto had just drunk a little bit of strong alcohol, an old face flushed with a casual look at his nephew, and muttered: "Say early if you want to come, let's eat together. Oh! Did you bring a gift? "
"Yes, sir." With a smile, Yasraki opened the linen cloth herself, and made two large pieces of brownish-white gradation loaf.
Rurik was taken aback. He saw at a glance that the bread was 10,000 times better than the pottery craftsman who made the oven!
"Sister, sit down quickly." Rurik said excitedly, slapping the table.
Aslaqi nodded, displayed the pottery urn again, then pulled out the cork, and suddenly a strange sour fragrance diffused.
No, there is still sweetness in it.
Rurik stood up suddenly, his DNA moved: "kwas!"
"Oh. You know? Peravina did it." Asraki was also taken aback.
"Yes! She is a Slavic woman. Quickly, put the dough and the pot on the table. Is this a gift for me? I want to taste it."
Aslaqi nodded. She and Arik are indeed presenting gifts~www.novelhall.com~ and greetings from family relatives.
Of course, she noticed that Roseburg was making flour on a large scale, and that Master Rurik was instructing his men to make large-scale flour cakes and purchase them immediately, and to start making bread in large quantities.
These are all in order to take the road of ice and snow, climb over the iceberg and head to Balmerk for the final preparation of dry food.
the only? Aslaqi is the daughter of a big businessman, and her vision is very long-term.
"If my family is favored by the Duke of Ross for making bread, my children will continue to be honored. I have to develop my skills, build my own mill, and..."
Aslaqi wanted to show off her skills in front of Rurik, and one of her main goals was to have the qualifications to supply the Ross army with high-quality food.
She has the soul of a businessman and clearly sees the huge benefits in it, hoping to take a shortcut to restore and expand the family power.
Her children have no right to inherit Arik's wealth, young Gustav will inherit his grandfather's family name. The old Harald family will be revived by a woman who is good at making bread. for sure!
, The fastest update to the latest chapter of the Rise of Rurik!Do the copper coins stored in the warehouse have much currency value to the economic status of Roseburg?A large number of copper coins were supposed to be the most common currency in circulation, but now it has largely given way to silver coins.Copper coins are placed in warehouses, and the dry and cold weather makes them extremely difficult to corrode. But the Roman copper coins are only kept in the warehouse, which is really a waste of metal.Copper coins can be cast into arrow clusters, armor pieces, and other tools and weapons, and Rurikben also deliberately does it, such as casting a lot of lamp holders.The mountainous area of Roseburg has copper veins, and its scale is far less than that of iron ore. It is still meaningful to develop local copper resources.Because smelting bronze does not require a blast furnace.There are as many as eight traditional furnaces where copper coins and tin blocks are mixed into eight crucibles of extremely hot molten metal water.After the special clay mold is fired, the special plane parts are carefully polished.They were polished smoothly, and finally ushered in the moment of casting.After the blacksmiths smashed the dry-hot molds with their hammers, the shiny golden bronze casting is complete!Two sets of bronze grinding disc components are completed under the joint casting of bronze water in eight crucibles.Rurik consumed a large amount of copper coins for grinding discs. Some people say that this is a manifestation of the Duke's extravagance. Some people speculate about the purpose of the Duke who insists on ordering the blacksmith to cast rare large bronze pieces.Most people don't know this at all, and everyone's mind is full of the summer expedition to Karelia. It is said that it was an unknown and brave enemy, and everyone just polished their weapons and waited for a battle.It was the young blacksmith of Rurik who was in charge of the casting of this large piece. Kamnet supervised the matter. After the casting was completed, he gave all participants a sum of money.The sun shines on the bronze grinding disc that reveals the true face, and the glittering appearance is simply blind.Cam, you half covered your face with your rough hands: "My lord. You said this is a mill? It looks weird. Can you really grind wheat into flour quickly?""Of course, it was designed by me, it must be deliberate!" Rurik pinched his waist.Obviously he is already preparing for the event of going to Balmerk, and Rurik seems to have deliberately spared time to order these things to be cast.There were many blacksmiths and iron smelters who were helpers rushing to the casting site to watch, some unlucky guys who looked vigorous and accidentally fell off the heights.Old Cravason didn't say anything, Kawei struggled to pick up the cooled bronze grinding disc."Ah! What kind of weight is this? Rurik, you..." Kawei gritted his teeth, just erected the round millstone, and then put it down again.He twisted his arms and panted: "This thing is too heavy.""It's just half a stika about half a meter in diameter, so you're tired? Have you become weak?" Rurik teased deliberately.Kawei wiped a sweat: "Forgive me. You must know the weight of this thing better than I do.""Then continue to do things as I want, and find a strong man to move me to the palace.""Okay. I hope it can really grind a lot of flour."Most of the Russ' concept of grinding is a stone grinding rod. As for the rotary stone grinding, it originated from Asia. It was the Romans who brought this Eastern technology to Britain and northern Europe. It's just that it was a high-tech implementation for many Germanic tribes, and many barbarians began to open up wasteland to become farmers after the collapse of Western Rome, and there is a reason to use the mill.Rurik also had no way of knowing whether the rotating stone mill really came from a country in the far east. Perhaps it was first invented in the ancient Mesopotamia. However, he believed very much that the technology of the heavy stone mill must come from the Far East. The working principle of the two heavy-duty tools that process grains into powder is different, and the results are similar. It's just that the rotating grinding disc can grind finer powder, and the rotating stone is very efficient.Perhaps it makes more sense to make heavy-duty mills. Because of personal factors, Rurik still likes rotating metal mills. As for why he is obsessed with bronze mills, it is just that this thing is easy to manufacture. If conditions permit, I will not hesitate to build a heavy-duty stainless steel mill.Kawei is not a fighter. He participated in the war and subconsciously studied the buildings and tools of the British residents. He knew the rotating stone mill, but Master Rurik insisted on making a bronze rotating mill!In the beginning, there were only two grinding disc components, and then there were two more to be cast.In the cement courtyard of the Duke of Ross's palace, a stone-wood structure house has been completed. It has a large area and is extremely empty inside, and some of the stone piers placed inside appear to be abrupt from the outside.The quiet house became lively, and Rlik's female relatives were on the window sill on the third floor, and they were almost fainted as they watched the people carrying the huge gold nugget downstairs.That's gold!Indeed, the color of bronze cast from special materials is indeed very similar to gold to these girls.The gold is more shiny, and the bronze is much bleak.The grinding disc and the base are smooth as a whole, but there are a large number of very special grooves inside. These grooves are the most important thing. Their special shape ensures that the ground wheat particles are constantly pushed to the outside. Workers only need to carefully collect the flour. That's it.It is a very traditional oriental grinding disc, with simple structure and better material than stone.The brawny man furiously lifted the glittering grinding disc and snapped it up with the bearing on the bronze base.Its practical experiment was carried out for the first time. Onlookers watched Rurik personally pour wheat grains into the funnel of the feed inlet, and a strong man pushed the wooden pole to turn the grinding disc.It has no ball bearings, not even roller bearings. It is a hard-contact bearing, which is lubricated by grease to ensure that it does not require too much effort to rotate.It looks cumbersome, but it's okay, and it quickly displayed its powerful abilities.Because the coarse whole wheat flour that has been ground to a very fine degree has been continuously pushed out by the mill!Rurik stuffed the yellow-white coarse flour into his mouth to taste the taste. He was not too happy. On the other hand, the onlookers were already having a lively chat with smiling faces.The two bronze millstones were completed in a relatively low-key manner. It is a great innovation for the Ross people, but whether it is great or not will it be truly felt when people can eat a lot of bread and delicate dough.Why treat a strong man as a donkey? Two docile reindeer were pulled to the shed, they replaced the existence of the donkey, and Rurik had no doubt about the endurance of these large animals. He actually didn't have a choice. The animal power available here in Roseburg was either a reindeer or a pony. The price-performance ratio of mules was actually the best, but now he had no choice but to retreat to the female deer with antlers cut off.The maid from Britain was quickly admitted to be in charge of the mill as work. They know mills and rotating stone mills, but...They were shocked, and when they learned that taking good care of the reindeer lamo, they could get enough toast or bread every day, and they gladly accepted it.At least in terms of eating and putting, Lord Duke is much more merciful than the nobles in his hometown.This is no more than an opportunity to show the strength of the Ross people. The old priest from Lindsay and all the maids captured from Britain visited this "golden mill" under Rurik's order."This is gold! How great it is! The rich duke uses gold as a millstone." The old priest Lindsay clutched his heart, and he had to admit that Rose was rich.As for the maids, they have bought meat every day since they came to Ross. They were pleasantly surprised by the kindness of the conqueror when they were full, and wondered why the conqueror would not grind their noodles. Now, they realize their simplicity.Then a woman murmured: "Maybe their hoes are also golden."Rurik did not regard the completion of the bronze mill as a good thing to eulogize, but his family was late for the noodles the first time.noodles? Do not.Rurik's female relatives were forced to learn to use chopsticks, and even the Queen Mary, after rigorous practice, she felt that her right hand was already extremely flexible. As for eating with her hands, Mary felt that it was the most shameful vulgarity.They subconsciously linked "wheat" and "rope" together, and gave the noodles an appropriate combination of "wheat string".Rurik didn't care, watching the steaming noodles in his bowl, the dislocation of time and space spontaneously arises.The family gathered together, and the top nobles of Rose were on the second floor of the palace, enjoying the boring lo-noodles that would be so common for the Orientals in a thousand years.But for them, this is better than everything!The flour is sifted, and the delicate noodles made from European high-gluten wheat are more resilient. As for the stewed seeds, they are a thick sauce made from onion, seal meat, carrot pieces, salt, and thyme picked last year.They eat noodles like Orientals. Once they feel the taste is excellent, they all become coyotes.Otto was surprised to see that he still didn't know how to use chopsticks. Fortunately, his son also prepared a sterling silver fork for himself. It is wonderful to eat this kind of "wheat rope" with a fork.The noodles were heavily stained with thick sauce on his beard, and Otto opened a large mouth with a lot of teeth missing. He was pleasantly surprised by the elasticity of the noodles and the softness after chewing.I don't know how many sensations act on the mind, turning it into a desire to eat.Happiness permeated Otto's wrinkled face!Rurik knew that his father had a big appetite, and he was so used to this life, eating noodles must be fierce. Who would have thought that Otto would finish a bowl of Lo Noodles in no time."Are you so hungry?" Niya scolded with a smile, and Otto randomly responded with a full hiccup, which made everyone laugh.Even the little baby Velika laughed."A hundred times more delicious than boiled wheat!" Otto carried the silver bowl, and went to the barrel to give himself another bowl, topped with bittern Meimei and continued to eat.Rurik looked surprised, his father's appearance even puzzled him.Otto, why are you so skilled."I will eat this every day from now on." Otto finally stuffed his stomach with high-concentration carbohydrates. This is the first time in his life that he has this special sense of comfort and the feeling of soaring blood sugar. Ordinary people in this era are afraid that they will last their entire lives. Can't understand.Otto looked like an old naughty boy, yelling to share a good meal with the old man, and even eat this all at once."Is that enough?" Rurik asked deliberately."Do you have other tricks?""Of course. We are going to make a lot of toasted bread."The essence of toast lies in fermentation. Although high-quality yeast is not easy to obtain, baking soda can be easily obtained.At first there were two bronze mills, and soon there were four. They seem to be limited in number, and their combat effectiveness should not be underestimated.A large amount of coarse flour was made overnight, and Rurik ordered the servants from Britain to work through the night, even if the reindeer was resting, let them do it.Rurik set a demanding amount of tasks for them, and he felt that his measures were not wrong. Because Rose must reserve enough high-quality dry food for a difficult winter expedition!The technique of baking bread was first invented in Mesopotamia in 10,000 BC. At that time, baking was nothing more than a lump of hard dough. When the technology spread to Egypt, the Egyptian fermentation technology left the bread. The qualitative change of taste.It was passed to Rome, with a complete set of flour milling, kneading, fermentation and baking techniques passed on to the barbarians everywhere, and even to the people on the Baltic Sea coast and the dense forests of Northeast Europe.The Slavic women on Lake Ilmen who married into Roseburg generally know how to use a stone grinder to push wheat grains to make flour. Although Novgorod is too cold and more suitable for growing oats, once they imported wheat from Southern Smolensk, they made bread without hesitation.They all think that oatmeal cannot be made into bread. If oat flour is ground, its loose starch structure is indeed difficult to stick into dough.Oatmeal, Rurik really knows its other name in the East, namely noodles.Of course, oatmeal has disadvantages in this respect. If it is mixed with wheat, the problem that it is difficult to make a trip will be solved.Oats are easier to store and harder to spoil than wheat. The two grains are mixed together and ground into a mixed powder by four bronze mills overnight.The grinding efficiency of a bronze mill with one revolution is better than that of a woman holding a stone grindstone and a stone slab for a hundred times.Even if it was later in the night that a woman pushed the wood pole to make the millstone rotate, it was not efficient.The four bronze mills went into battle, and it took no time to grind a hundred pounds of wheat into coarse flour. Rurik was pleased that he quickly got a lot of flour.It's food for ordinary people, so the germ and bran layer can't be sifted out with twine gauze.When the starch inside the wheat can be fully bonded, even if a large amount of bran is mixed, there is no other problem except to make the overall taste of the bread rough.Ordinary people do not have the qualifications to be picky eaters. Men and women earn wealth by working and then wake up the Duke to buy food. This was impossible in the past. Wheat is still very precious. They make their own bread and bread, even if the bread crumbs are picked up and eaten.Furthermore, some rotten bread is processed deeply like pickled sauerkraut.No, when the Slavic Wives of Roseburg really started making bread, there were many bright-minded women who deliberately performed a special brewing skill in front of their Ross husbands.Is that brewing? Do not! Some of the baked bread and unleavened bread were crushed into crumbs again, like the traditional Viking ale, and they began to brew a unique Slavic alcoholic beverage-Kvass.At this time, Rurik had only recently learned about it. Because the original Kvass from Roseburg has been taken by some Slavic wives to their own table. Its taste is not like bitter and slightly sweet ale, but it smells sour and tastes completely sweet. This life lacking beverages immediately brings new pleasures.These are the huge changes brought about by the large amount of wheat from Britain entering Roseburg.But the biggest change is that Duke Ross actually started to bake bread!The potter's potter received the Duke's money and semolina in kind as a reward.Flour is not only a reward, but a test product for them.Naturally fermenting the dough is a skill known in ancient Egypt. In fact, most people in the Rus know this, but because the wheat is an absolute delicacy, it is difficult to bake bread.But Arik's second wife, Asraki, is a master at baking bread!A boy was born smoothly. He was called Gustav, the son of Asraki and the second son of Arik. He has now learned to walk.But Yasilaqi was not willing to be an ordinary woman at all, and her toasting skills were immediately revealed.The pottery craftsmen made a batch of loaves, which were strange in taste and appearance.In the unexpected situation of Rlik, Aslaqi brought her servant and her husband Arik to accompany him, wrapped a large ball in coarse cloth, and brought this treasure to the Duke in the evening.The mill was still making a squeaky noise, and the British servants wearing turbans sat casually eating dough and talking and laughing, and people evaded them when they suddenly came."Let's go and see what my brother is eating.

Peravina is only due to the fact that she is too ordinary and has a second child. She is more willing to continue to take care of the children at home.Arik came suddenly, but he saw his brother, uncle, and the women's dinner at the table as suddenly."It's all wheat rope noodles?"Otto had just drunk a little bit of strong alcohol, an old face flushed with a casual look at his nephew, and muttered: "Say early if you want to come, let's eat together.
