Field was desperate when he first saw the mess in the wine cellar.

Fortunately, there is always a way out. Field only searched a few places and found the unopened wine barrel.

"Dongdong~"

Gently knocking on the wooden barrel, a low muffled sound came from inside. Field's heart beat faster and his face immediately showed joy. However, he was worried that he was happy for nothing, so he pretended to be calm: "Open this barrel, I hope it is full of fine wine, not tentacles."

Gray fog will only corrupt plants and animals, and dead things generally will not turn into monsters, provided that the wine is properly sealed.

The guard pried open the wine barrel with great effort, and with a "bo" sound, the mellow wine aroma spread wantonly.

In a winery full of stench and monsters, but smelling the aroma of top-grade wine, this weird experience is comparable to finding shrimp in the toilet.

"That's it! Black Pearl Wine that is out of print in the Empire." Field was so excited that he waved his fist excitedly and ordered the guard beside him who was greedy for wine, "Call my butler Kao to count the number of barrels that can be drunk here."

Seeing Field immersed in joy, Ashina carefully advised: "Lord, even if it is fine wine, you should drink it in moderation."

Many lords are ruined by alcoholism and stay in bars and fireworks all day long.

"Don't worry, Ashina, I don't want to drink these wines."

Compared to wine, Field prefers iced black tea or cola.

"These fine wines that have been out of print for ten years are all liquid gold. As long as they are transported to the capital of the empire, no, as long as they are sent to any nearby city, they can immediately bring us a huge amount of gold coin income."

As for the specific value, it depends on how much wine there is here.

But Field can be sure that those dignitaries will definitely fight for the famous wine.

"Oh~" Ashina put her slender finger on her lips, with a thoughtful look, "Since Black Pearl Wine is so precious, we can also make wine. Anyway, the Starry Night Winery is in our hands."

"You are right, but that is something we will consider only when safety is guaranteed."

After handing the wine cellar to Kao, Field finally had time to examine his territory.

With the winery as the center, it is about the size of a primary school playground. This circle is all the land occupied by Field.

As long as there is no gray fog, people can carry out activities on it, which is considered a real territory. As for what is in the territory, it is not important now, because it is all corrupted plants and creatures, and they have to be eradicated before they can be considered.

"Now, the challenge officially begins."

Field walked around the outermost edge of the road. The corrupted creatures in the ridges were much less because of the cleaning by the people in the territory, and it finally looked a bit like the human world.

The people in the territory pushed the deformed corrupted creatures together. These monsters had no fighting ability, but their existence was pollution. The broken wood cleared from the big winery can be recycled and thrown into the monster pile and ignited.

The screams of cats in spring continued, accompanied by the sizzling sound of roasting, and a large cloud of gray smoke poured out of the monster's body.

"Oh my God, Valkyrie, these devil's minions have finally been cleared."

The maid patted her chest and shouted in an exaggerated tone.

The working female slaves cast envious eyes.

Being able to enter and exit the castle, eat the leftovers of the nobles, and have luxurious rest time at ordinary times is enough to make the slaves jealous.

"Scissors, I need you to do something."

After Field toured the territory, he planned to meet his servants before issuing a new decree.

"My lord, you said..."

The maid Scissors' smile immediately withdrew, like a frightened katydid, and even her loud voice stopped. Although Field had always been cowardly and stupid before, he was still an existence that the common people looked up to.

Field has been busy with development these days and has neglected many things. He now realizes that there is a huge class gap in this world.

Remember the funny thing that happened to Field's cheap father.

The hostile nobles planned to attack the family's caravan, but the peasants happened to see the ambush location of the nobles, so the peasant immediately came to the castle and told the earl about the enemy's conspiracy. Then the earl used the enemy's trick and defeated the enemy.

Logically, the peasant should be rewarded with money, but the earl hanged the peasant to show him after his victory.

The reason is: the disgusting feces and dirt stained by the peasant's lowly shoes left lowly footprints on the earl's carpet.

In the eyes of the nobles, the subjects are just a pile of shit, and slaves are even worse than shit.

Field is not a saint. He will not overthrow himself, nor will he completely localize and become a thorough feudal aristocrat.

"Just let my subjects live a good life.. " Field thought, "Of course, they have to be obedient subjects."

"Scissors, gather all the people who serve me, I have something to say."

"Yes, sir." Scissors immediately picked up the apron and trotted.

The butler arrived first. After all, he had the highest status among the servants, so Scissors naturally notified him first.

"Sir, the number of barrels has not been counted yet, it will take at least two days. "Butler Kao came running over breathlessly. He looked very thin, with only a few pounds of flesh on his thighs. He seemed to be living a hard life.

But his salary was the highest in the whole territory, 5 silver coins and 50 copper coins a month. At the same time, matters such as purchasing and accounting would be handed over to him. As long as he put some thought into it, his income could be multiplied several times.

Generally speaking, one copper coin of the empire could buy a piece of black bread, that is, black rye bran bread, which even contained sawdust and bark. Unlike the bread imagined by modern people, black bread was as hard as a stone, and biting it hard could break your teeth. The correct way to eat it was to soak it in hot soup until it was soft, and then eat it with coarse salt grains with a lot of impurities.

The taste was neither wheaty nor sweet, but only salty and bitter.

But even so The food was rubbish, and many people could not earn enough to buy two loaves of bread after working for a day, and finally they could only become slaves.

Maids, butlers and cooks were all paid 15 copper coins a day, which was 4 silver coins and 50 copper coins a month.

Soon, Field saw his servants, two maids, a butler and a cook.

In modern society, having two or three servants is a very impressive thing, but in the Middle Ages, Field was only a poor nobleman. His sister, the woman who sent cavalry to try to kill him, had 20 servants alone, who were responsible for cutting vegetables, chopping meat, leading horses and even trimming nails.

Field's eyes swept over everyone, and they all lowered their heads to avoid eye contact with the lord, which was rude.
