Chapter 76
Chapter 75
May in the Desinian Territory is destined to not be ordinary.
Since the opening of the Desinia candy shop, the air in Wessas seems to be flowing with a sweet smell every day.
This taste is irresistible and irresistible.
On the first day, such a sweet and intoxicating taste was blown across the city like a gust of wind, and then it swept across the entire Desinian territory.
Compared with the appearance of the stories of gods and clothing stores—the barren soil and sand are nourished like springs flowing slowly by.
The emergence of the candy shop is like a waterfall bursting down on the boulders exposed in the water, splashing big water flowers that cannot be ignored.
How scarce and precious sugar is, it is almost only known from the circulation of sugar between the two empires.
This is something that even a small nobleman can rarely own.
However, now, you can see it every day in Wissas—Looking at the man standing by the window in the shop making candies, the smell of sweetness is incomparable between his nose…
But because the price of sugar is too expensive, people who can’t afford to buy it are simply too eager.
Desinia Candy Shop currently only sells two types of sugar-white sugar and lemon sugar.
The clean and beautiful sugar granules are packed in stained glass jars of different sizes and displayed on the shelves, full of rows.
Next to the store door, half of the wall is made into a large window, which opens from the inside to the outside, and is bound with wooden sticks and rope supports.
Inside the window is a spacious countertop, where three guys show the steps of making lemon sugar, boil the syrup, extract the lemon juice, knead and stretch the two after mixing… and finally knead it into a round strip and cut it with a spatula. .
The crisp sound of “Ding Ding Ding” sounded constantly, which was the sound of light yellow candies rolling down inside the wooden box.
The bottom layer of the wooden box is also covered with a layer of white sugar. The moment the candy rolls down, it is stained with white sugar particles, which makes people who are addicted to watching outside the window swallow hard.
These candies are beautiful and attractive, and attract people to buy them all the time.
However, when they caught a glimpse of the small wooden sign hanging on the wall outside the window with a clear price, they couldn’t help but stop in frustration and face embarrassment-the price of lemon candy is too expensive.
There is a scale of a special size on the table for making candies, about the length of a knuckle, which is used for regulation and measurement.
A small candy is worth a gold coin.
One sugar and one gold are perfect in this small candy shop.
The value of sugar is so precious that it will naturally attract a lot of malicious covetous eyes.
If you just hang the signboard of an ordinary chamber of commerce store, I believe it will be looted and looted in one night.
However, this candy shop is under the banner of the Thorns Chamber of Commerce and belongs to Lord Lord.
This is why Xia Zoe puts Desinia’s surname on the signboard, which is both an indication and a deterrent.
Not only that, during the shop opening hours from noon to sunset, Barna will deliberately bring soldiers patrolling the city to guard nearby.
At night, there will be soldiers who live around the shop or upstairs, and they really caught three brave gangsters stealing sugar on one night.
On the second day, Barna announced the incident on the warning board in the city, along with the portraits of three gangsters, and punished them to expel them from Wesas forever.
Fort Comoy and Wesas have always been two cities as one, and naturally they will not accept these three mixed into the city.
They lost their status as residents of Weissas, and were also resisted by Fort Comoy, and could only go to other cities.
After that, many people in the city who were greedy and wanted to make bad ideas secretly restrained their careful thinking.
After all, losing the status of the residents of Wesas is really a very serious loss, because now in the Territory of Desinia, no city has a life and policy that can compare with Wess and Fort Comoy.
Moreover, the daily quantity of white sugar and lemon candies sold in the candy store is too small, and the sales are too good, generally sold out before the sun goes down.
It was just an empty shop at night.
Even if it sneaked in, it was nothing but futile.
Most of the sugar and lemon sugar in the store were taken over by the nobles in the territory, and they circulated extremely quickly among the nobles…Finally, more than half a month later, the continuous appearance of sugar and lemon sugar took the lead in the Desinian territory. Into the Anas Empire.
…
Anas Empire.
Boris sat in a chair with arms folded and looked at the three things in front of him.
Behind him stood Vincent, the chief steward of the Nagabi Chamber of Commerce, with a complex expression on his face at this time, unexpected, unbelievable…so that he did not speak for a long time.
After a while, Vincent gasped abruptly, and whispered: “Leader, do you want to take a look first…”
“Tweet.”
The Youth League jumped impatiently on the open window.
Hai Dongqing, who was an unusually huge figure, worked hard to carry things back tonight, and waited for the letter to reach his feet and immediately returned to the castle. As a result, the two of them watched in a daze for a long time without saying a word.
Hurry up and don’t dawdle! In a hurry!
The Youth League slapped its wings angrily and tweeted twice.
Boris finally recovered, raised his hand and rubbed his frowning eyebrows.
He got up and took out the food and water he had always prepared since the Youth League communicated with Zoe. He walked to the window and placed it in front of the huge Costin: “You have a hard time.”
This beautiful big bird has a long name-Qingtuan·Uranos·Batian.
If outsiders call it, the Youth League will never pay attention, and they will even frighten aggressively, pecking at people with a pair of blue-gold eyes.
Boris turned and returned to the table after watching the Youth League lower his head and drink water.
On the table are three things-“Story of the Gods 3”, a jar of sugar, and a box of lemon candies.
The wooden box containing the lemon candy is also pasted with a piece of paper full of handwriting, from Xia Zoe.
Boris unconsciously let out a sigh from his throat, and said, “Little Zoe…you really…make me surprise you every moment.”
But this time… he wasn’t sure whether it was more “surprise” or “happy” more.
Vincent nodded involuntarily behind him, feeling the same.
Boris carefully read the note written by Xia Zoe, and then sat in a chair to reply.
When the letter was written, the Youth League was full and drunk. He held out a paw to let Boris fasten the letter, then fluttered his wings and flew away, and disappeared in a blink of an eye.
Boris walked back to the table and opened the wooden box.
The light yellow candies were packed full of candies.
He picked up a pill and stuffed it into his mouth. The sweet and sour taste instantly filled the whole mouth, making people unconsciously stretch their eyebrows.
With sugar in it, Boris pushed the wooden box in front of Vincent: “You try one too.”
Vincent solemnly rubbed his palm against the side of his pants, carefully twisted out a pill and placed it in his mouth. He couldn’t help but said, “Leader, it’s very delicious!”
At this moment, Boris was opening the jar of sugar.
He looked at the clean and white fine sugar granules inside, tasting it with his fingers, and the sweetness instantly melted into his mouth, wrapped in lemon sugar, and the taste became more obvious.
Boris leaned back on the chair and sighed again: “Sugar is so expensive that the nobles are fighting for it.”
“In addition, the appearance of lemon drops can make them swarm like evil wolves that smell the fishy smell. Why is Zoe so courageous…”
He couldn’t help but twist out a lemon candy from the wooden box and put it in his palm. The pale yellow color was very beautiful, and there was a crystal beauty.
The appearance of sugar is not uncommon.
However, once such precious things appear in batches, plus a delicious candy that has never been seen or tasted…
He can foresee the scene of these two things entering the Anas Empire from the Desinian territory shortly afterwards, what kind of waves will inevitably be caused between the nobles…
Just as he could clearly see the huge benefits that followed behind this, the nobles who indulged in pleasure, including the king of the Anas Empire, would be moved by it and wanted to plunder.
The remote sugarcane production area was controlled by the two empires at the same time.
But neither the Saint Airo Empire nor the Anas Empire can fully own it, and the sugar produced by sugarcane, which is not easy to grow, is like a chicken rib for the two empires.
Nowadays, a new way to produce white sugar has emerged—it’s like a piece of sweet honey being placed on the end of a branch so that people can pick it.
And most importantly, they will take it for granted that keeping it in their hands is the right decision.
Boris thought well.
A box of valuable candies was given as a gift to a marquis lord of the Anas Empire-this man was named Tosi Cavendish, the king’s illegitimate son.
This is something that everyone knows in the Anas Empire.
Cavendish is the king’s last name.
The Marquis of Tosi was able to be named Cavendish’s surname because the king was blatantly telling everyone his identity.
The king acted indiscreetly, otherwise he would not have many mistresses in the presence of a queen, and he made no secret that he had many illegitimate children.
Tosi Cavendish is undoubtedly the most favored one.
After asking about the origin of lemon sugar, he had a greedy idea about the raw materials and methods of sugar production. Even if the owner was a Desinian lord, he didn’t let him dispel the idea of taking it as his own.
However, Tosi Cavendish sent someone to investigate, but no useful news came.
The production of sugar and lemon candies are all done in the castle.
The castle is located on the shore of Lake Pal in the depths of the Pal Mountain.
Whether it is at the foot of the mountain or in the mountain, there are rigorously trained soldiers garrisoning between several checkpoints, and no one is allowed to enter.
Those who enter or leave the mountain need to be investigated in detail, and it is even more difficult for strangers to approach the castle.
Tosi Cavendish was naturally unwilling to hear any related news. He entered the palace and did not come out until the evening.
But a day later.
The king of the Anas Empire personally sent an invitation letter to the Territory of Desinia, asking Shazoe to come to the Empire to attend the Queen’s birthday dinner.
The king will hold a very grand banquet for the queen.
In addition to inviting Shazoe, it also invited all the great nobles, the kings of Hurghada, the Holy See…
The Anas Empire has never held a birthday party for the Queen with such a big fanfare before, and the purpose of this time is self-evident.
Boris handed the letter back to the Youth League, frowned and watched the huge Hai Dongqing disappear into the night, and with the wrong eye, he couldn’t catch the flashing white spot again.
Castle of Desinia.
Xia Zuoy reached out and took off the letter on the feet of the Youth League. After reading it, he couldn’t help but raise his eyebrows: “I didn’t expect that the person who shot first would be the king of the Anas Empire, but it also saved me some trouble…”
“Udit, Fernandi, Walker, get ready tomorrow… let Samuel pull the fleet to the port.”
“Yes, Lord.” The three said behind them.
