In fact, Isabella doesn't care whether the decoration here is gorgeous or not. Of course Isabella, who has lived in the cave forest for so many years, doesn't care. As long as she has a place to live in, Isabella is very satisfied.

As for Bals, of course he doesn't care about it. Although Bals is a royal family, he can achieve such achievements at a "young age", so he is naturally not a person who is content with pleasure.

Many servants moved some furniture into the room, and then began to get busy cleaning.

As nobles, Isabella, Bals, and Andrean certainly don't need to help together.

Isabella was bored and began to play with the cocoa nuts she found.

Isabella is going to try to make chocolate.

Isabella still has a certain understanding of how chocolate is made.

In the previous life, Isabella tried to do it when she was fine. Although there were flaws, Isabella believed that she would be able to do it.

In fact, the method of making chocolate is not difficult, the difficulty is to master the heat and pay attention to details.

There is also the issue of tools. Although there is magic civilization in this world, the price of magic machinery is too expensive, so it cannot be fully popularized.

Isabella has all kinds of convenient tools in another world, so it is relatively simple to make, but there are not so many convenient tools in this world.

Of course, Isabella's hands-on ability is not bad, since there are no ready-made tools, then look for substitutes, and do it yourself if you can't find a big deal.

The first step in making chocolate is to extract the cocoa beans from the cocoa pods and ferment them.After fermentation, the bitterness and sourness of cocoa beans will be reduced, and the aroma will be increased.I remember that it was enough to ferment for four or five days before.

Isabella found a box, put the cocoa beans with sticky pulp in it, and then found a jar. Isabella remembered that the fermentation temperature was around [-] to [-] degrees. In the previous life, Isabella has an incubator at home, but not in this world, so Isabella can only make something similar by herself.

Isabella found some leather bags and filled them with water.

Isabella discovered the benefits of being able to use magic at this time. Isabella can control the water temperature. Since she can turn water into ice instantly, she can also turn water into boiling water, although it will be slightly more It consumes some mana, but it's just to maintain the water temperature of a few bags. This consumption is not worth mentioning at all.

Isabella's found some more quilts to wrap it up to keep warm.

And Bals has been watching Isabella doing this.

Since Isabella said before that she would make food that made him feel uncomfortable, he is very curious now.

And while Isabella was doing this, the house had already been cleaned.

After all, someone would come to clean and maintain it regularly before, so it wasn't too dirty. In addition, there were a lot of people here, so it was cleaned up quickly.

Looking at the brand-new home, Isabella sighed, this professional is a professional, and the cleaning is quite good.

The furniture here has been completely replaced, and all the old furniture has been thrown into the storage room in the backyard. Of course, it is all paid by Bals. According to Bals, these things are always easy to break after a long time. In addition They are all things that other people have used, but he doesn't use them.

Although Isabella felt it was a pity, but if she didn't pay for it herself, Isabella wouldn't say anything more.

What's more, the one who benefits is himself, and of course he won't object.

Who doesn't like new ones, and Bals replaced them with top-notch furniture, well, Isabella once again sighed that it's nice to have money.

By the time all this was done, the sky had already darkened.

After a day of driving, everyone was very tired, so Isabella sent everyone to bed.

Isabella also entered into meditation.

Now she is not leaving room for becoming stronger.

She doesn't have a good way of exercising physically, so let's start with magic.

The next day.

After finishing her morning exercises, Isabella began her first day of life as a lord.

Because Isabella has become the new lord, Isabella will start performing her duties as a lord from today.

First of all, the first thing is to inspect your own territory. It is said to inspect the territory, but in fact it is more to tell all the citizens that Isabella will be their lord from now on.

This matter is very important, and it is quite troublesome. This world is not like another world where there is a TV broadcast, so if you want to tell everyone, and let everyone know that Isabella is the lord, naturally you need to Walk around the territory.

The lord's inspection of his own territory naturally requires some attention.

Isabella was alone, and she brought a knight Andrean with her, so she borrowed the soldiers brought by Bals.

On the way here, Isabella was wondering why Barrs brought so many soldiers over despite being so strong. It turned out to be this intention.

As an aristocrat, a proper card face is also a must.

Simply put, this is to deter citizens.

These farmers don't have much knowledge. If they want to make these people obedient and not cause trouble, all they need is to show the power of the lord. This is why the local lords are so loose in recruiting manpower, and the local nobles spend money to maintain a decent life even if they live a normal life.

Isabella doesn't care about these things, as long as she has money, money is the most important thing, so she won't slap her face to make herself fat. Of course, as long as she doesn't spend her own money, she will of course choose to save face.

Since Balsken lent her troops, she was of course happy to do so.

In fact, Isabella was quite happy about patrolling the territory. After all, the places she patrolled were all her territories.

Isabella came all the way, but found a lot of cocoa trees. She wanted to know how many cocoa trees there were in this territory.

The territory of twenty square kilometers is really huge, which is basically as big as a district.

It took a long time to go through all of this.

But after walking this circle, Isabella discovered a problem.

That's where it's really poor.

Yes, very poor.

Although the harvest of Geno Ling was good because of the good weather and weather these years, but this was just to make the place not worry about food and clothing, and the life of the people in the village was still not rich.

This territory is mainly planted with wheat, and rice in a few places.

The world is still rice and wheat in terms of staple foods.

Although some vegetables are grown, the output of vegetables is very small because they are not easy to store.

In fact, it is not easy for these people to be able to eat enough, let alone enhance the quality of life.

Only at this time did Isabella realize that this world is not as prosperous as she once saw.The people at the bottom are still worrying about food and clothing, and Isabella heard that this Geno Territory is not a bad territory. If this is a worse territory, wouldn't it be that the people there can't even have enough to eat?Of course, this is normal, not to mention in this world, in another world, the problem of food and clothing has not been completely solved.

After inspecting the territory and returning to her residence, it was almost afternoon. After seeing the quality of life of the citizens, Isabella was not in a good mood, although Isabella felt that she was very careless. Lung, but to be honest, seeing those children who have been helping in the farmland since they were very young, and those who have clearly reached their sixties are also working in it, and looking at those people who are yellow and emaciated because of lack of nutrition , Isabella's heart was still a little touched.

She originally came to this place mainly to avoid the troubles of the imperial capital, and originally thought of living a mediocre life, but now she has changed her mind.

She felt that she should do something for this territory.

If you want to improve the life here, it is definitely not enough to just grow food. Now the society is relatively stable, and the weather has been smooth these years, and there have been no catastrophes. This is of course a good thing, but because of this, the price of food cannot be too high. Lives are expensive, so if you want to improve your life here, you need to develop some other products.

And what Isabella thinks of now is cocoa beans.

This world is called Kukaguo something.

No one in this world has discovered the value of cocoa beans, so this is an opportunity. Isabella now has an idea to make this place a place of chocolate and coffee.

In another world, Isabella knows how popular chocolate and coffee are. Isabella believes that it is the same in this world. No one can refuse the taste of chocolate.

Because after patrolling the territory, Isabella became more active in making chocolate.

You can only do it successfully on your own.

Chapter 250 Chocolate

The days of being a lord were busier than Isabella imagined, well, even Isabella seemed to have a very comfortable life.

Isabella, the lord, has nothing to do at all. She thought being a lord was very hard.

In fact, Isabella didn't know that this was a relaxing territory specially given to her by His Majesty the Emperor. In addition, the place was not very big, and Bals helped her a lot, so Isabella was so leisurely. .

Now that she was free, Isabella was naturally given a lot of free time.

Isabella has been seriously studying the way of making chocolate these days.

Although Isabella remembers the general steps, she has forgotten the specific details. Coupled with the lack of tools, Isabella is studying these things seriously.

Finally, on a sunny noon, a joyful voice resounded throughout the mansion.

"Successful, hahahaha! Finally successful!!"

The high-pitched voice made everyone look into the mansion in astonishment.

Isabella looked at the gray-black object that had condensed into a block in her hand.

Ten days, after ten days, after several failures, Isabella finally made the most perfect chocolate so far.

Taking a breath, smelling the unique aroma of chocolate on it, looking at the shiny surface, Isabella couldn't wait to break off a piece and put it in her mouth.

"Hmm~~~~ Delicious~~~ It smells like chocolate~~ This time it's absolutely right, hahaha!!" Isabella put her hand on her chin, her eyes narrowed.

The chocolate in her mouth melted in her mouth, and the rich taste of dark chocolate spread in her mouth. The bitterness and sweetness of the rich chocolate were intertwined in her mouth, which made Isabella feel a sense of happiness spontaneously.

This wonderful and delicate taste, this familiar taste, made Isabella cry.

She really cried, because the smell reminded her of that world.

Of course, for Isabella, it's more about being happy.

She finally made chocolate in this world, it's so good, I can eat chocolate in the future, hahaha, hahaha, hahaha, long live.

Isabella ate several pieces in a row before stopping.

Thinking of the hard work of the past few days, Isabella was filled with emotion.

To be honest, it is really not an easy thing to make chocolate.

Although the steps seem to be quite simple, you must pay attention to various small details in each step.

Details determine success or failure, and most of Isabella's previous failures were due to failure to handle small details well.

During the initial fermentation process, Isabella needs to clean up the liquid produced by the fermentation every once in a while, and then continue to ferment.

It took three or four days to ferment Isabella alone, and the drying process took a long time afterwards, and it was also very troublesome in the subsequent baking. It had to go back and forth several times, and the time and temperature had to be controlled .

There is no other world's oven in this world, so it can only be done with an oven, and the temperature of the oven is very difficult to control. Isabella has ruined a lot in the process.

Then there is grinding, which is also very troublesome. After all, there is such a thing as a grinding machine in another world. In this world, you can only grind it by hand. Fortunately, this matter is very important to Yi It's okay for Sabella, after all, Isabella is an extraordinary person, so it's relatively easy to make powder.

After being ground into powder, sugar is added, then melted, tempered and so on, and finally it is allowed to solidify.

This is easy to say, but it is not easy to do. Isabella failed several times and spent nearly ten days before finally making the finished product.

Although there is a gap between the top chocolates in another world, but I made it by myself.

Another important thing to mention is that the amount of sugar added is also very important. After all, sugar in this world is quite expensive. Adding too much is wasteful, adding too little, and it is too bitter.

But in any case, being able to make chocolate successfully in the end still made Isabella laugh.

Isabella rushed out of the kitchen excitedly, and then put the things in her hands on the table.

"Dang~~dangdang!" Isabella said with an excited smile, "Come here, everyone, come and have a taste. This is a masterpiece that I have worked hard for more than ten days to complete." Isabella summoned Looking at the servants in the room.

After hearing Isabella's words, everyone surrounded her curiously.

During this period of getting along, they all know that Isabella is a kind person, so now she is casual.

Isabella was busy in the kitchen whenever she was free during this time, and they were also curious about what Isabella was researching, especially when Isabella's uncontrollable excited voice came out of their ears just now, Now that Isabella invited them to come and taste it, it naturally aroused everyone's curiosity.

It's just that after seeing the chocolate black appearance, no one dared to try it.

After all, this dark thing is a bit unacceptable to those who see it for the first time.

Of course, as a chocolate lover, Isabella would not understand it. In her eyes, that dark and shiny look was simply too attractive.

Under Isabella's urging, Andrean picked up a small piece after making great determination. Looking at the black chocolate in his hand, he also smelled a very fragrant smell, but he also smelled a piece of chocolate. Asked bitterly, under Isabella's expectant eyes, Andrean finally decided to eat it after making a lot of determination.

Andrean Zhanwei put it into his mouth, and then Andrean's expression froze.A taste that made it hard for him to speak made his eyes widen.

All eyes were on Andrean.

Isabella asked expectantly: "How do you feel? Is it delicious? Do you like it?"

Andrean seriously savored the taste in his mouth.

The bitterness and aroma of cocoa beans, mixed with the aroma of milk and the sweetness of sugar, this strange combination is simply a feast for the taste buds, and Andrean, who has never tasted such a taste, does not know how to taste it for a while. To describe.

With a limited vocabulary, all Andrean's last emotion was reduced to one sentence: "It's delicious. I like it."

Although simple, this is the best compliment to Isabella.

"Yes, yes, yes!" Isabella immediately asked continuously, and then laughed with her arms akimbo, "You guys should try it too." Isabella immediately called others to taste it.

Seeing Andrean's evaluation, the others took a piece out of curiosity and put it in their mouths, and then they all showed similar expressions.

Apparently the taste of chocolate brought them an unimaginable experience.
