Chapter 232 Alchemy materials solved
After lingering for a long time, Li Qi waited until the water cooled down before ending his bath and stood up from the tub.
Pick up a piece of cloth and put it on your body.
The good thing about short hair is that it dries quickly. If you have long hair, you have to wrap your hair every time you take a shower to prevent it from getting wet.
There is no hair dryer in this world.
Elegant aristocratic life and tedious care are always intertwined.
So if you want long and elegant hair, you have to accept spending a lot of time every day on combing your hair, applying oil, maintaining it, etc. Li Qi doesn't want to be a peacock, so short hair is fine.
A banquet was held at Three Fork River Castle, and more than a dozen nobles gathered together.
The location is very particular. This banquet actually only wants to entertain two people, one is Philip of the Midnight Sun, and the other is Porcupine Baron Li Qi.
The other second sons of the nobles could not get to this table, but Hawkwood did not dare to get special treatment.
On his left and right hands are his son, daughter, and Miss Agnes, who is not yet married.
Then there is Li Qi and Phillip.
"Thank you all the brave and fearless knights of the East Gorge!" Hawkwood stood up and raised his glass: "May the Four Gods bless you all!"
"May the four gods bless you!" The noble men raised their wine glasses.
Li Qigang put the wine glass in front of him and understood after a gentle sniff.
This is my own porcupine wine!
He took a small sip.
Don't drink this wine in large gulps. It's 40 or 50 degrees Celsius. If you drink too much in one go, you'll be the one to suffer.
But others didn't have this concept. After all, Porcupine wine had just been launched not long ago, and Claude liked to sell the wine to the north first. Almost no one present had ever drunk this wine.
"Hiss!" Johann Hann took a deep sip, his head buzzing from the tip: "What kind of wine is this?"
His whole face turned red instantly.
"Hahaha, Red Rooster Knight!" The nobleman sitting aside pointed at Jochen's face and laughed.
I don’t know if someone was drunk due to poor drinking capacity, or someone was using alcohol to liven up the atmosphere. The atmosphere at the table was very good.
If you didn't eat with your hands, Li Qi would think everything was very elegant and aristocratic.
Hawkwood also prepared a fork for everyone, but not many people were willing to use it.
"This is porcupine wine." Hawkwood smiled at Li Qi and introduced: "Ever since I accidentally obtained the porcupine wine brewed by Porcupine Collar, I can no longer drink other wines. This kind of wine is fragrant and mellow. The aftertaste is long, but it’s a pity that porcupine wine is so difficult to buy. I can only buy a small amount at a time. I can only drink a small cup of it every day. If all the knights weren’t attending the banquet, I would never be willing to take it out.”
Li Qi shook his head slightly and said: "Porcupine wine is in short supply and I can only drink it at Three Fork River Fort."
"Hahaha"
Everyone laughed, but no one believed what Li Qi said, but they did have a new experience with porcupine wine. This is a very fragrant wine, and it is very difficult to buy.
Of course, there was the one who finished the cup in one gulp and was now confused and talking loudly.
The wine with the highest concentration in the world is only about ten degrees.
Suddenly he drank a lot of liquor, and now he can still sit and talk. It's because these people usually train to be strong and drink beer as water, otherwise they would have fallen under the table one by one.
Li Qi was thinking about something else.
Do you want something as high-end as the soap? Although the price of porcupine wine at this stage is already much more expensive than ordinary wine, the nobles are not short of money. If the price is raised appropriately, they will be happy to drink it. For example, make a flying porcupine?
Everything is open to question.
It's a pity that the little secretary is not with him, otherwise she could help him write down this idea.
In the second half of the drinking, except for the extraordinary knights who were physically strong and could barely resist the erosion of alcohol, and the Linsen family who had been prepared for it and just tasted it briefly, the others were already swaying around and talking loudly.
John Hann, the "Red Rooster Rider", was red from his neck to his ears, and his whole face was like a monkey's butt. He held on to his chair and staggered up to Li Qi.
He said loudly: "Sir Qi, my wife likes you!"
Li Qi was very calm, but Philip and other people who were not drunk were not calm. Can such words be said directly to others?
After a long pause, Jochen said: "The soap!"
Li Qi, who had long been accustomed to him talking and breathing heavily, remained calm, while Phillip and others breathed a sigh of relief, thinking they had some breaking news.
If you think about it carefully, it's impossible. Porcupine collar is far away from Donggang City. Besides the popular Porcupine brand soap, what else can there be?
Agnes also said: "I also like Porcupine Noble Soap, but it's hard to buy it every time. I can only ask sister Evangelion for help."
"Jennifer" Agnes said to the noble lady on the side: "We must seize this opportunity to ask for some, otherwise when Sir Reach leaves, it will be difficult for us to buy soap in the future."
"It's an honor for me to allow a beautiful lady to use Porcupine soap," Li Qi said. "It just so happens that Porcupine Noble Soap has a new fragrance. I will arrange for it to be delivered when I return."
"I want it too!" John Hann leaned into Li Qi's ear and whispered: "My wife has body odor. Do you have any deodorizing soap?"
Can this be said outside? Brother, he really drank too much.
Li Qi coughed dryly and said, "Porcupine Collar is currently researching sulfur soap. Maybe you can buy one and try it."
"Hahaha, great, so..."
Boom!
Jochen Hann fell to the ground.
Hawkwood said quickly: "Send Sir Jochen back to rest."
That night, the male servants had never done such tiring work. Carrying a drunk man was heavier than lifting a dead pig.
After the dinner, Li Qi wanted to exchange ideas about extraordinary people with Philip and others. Compared with himself, they were all veteran nobles and might have some skills.
But Hawkwood Linson stopped Li Qi first.
Quite simply, he wants to talk business.
After seeing the strength of the porcupine collar soldiers and seeing the reaction of the Leopold family when he encountered difficulties this time, Hawkwood, an honest man who had always been hiding and not fighting, finally decided to make some friends of his own.
His thoughts were similar to Agnes, but a little different. After all, he was a man and could not seduce with women, and he did not believe that Li Qi could be seduced by sex.
It just so happened that people who had Porcupine Collar before wanted to come here to buy minerals.
The most unreliable thing in the world is emotional relationships. Feelings can be betrayed, but interests will never be betrayed.
There are many people who take risks and risk their lives for the sake of profit, but emotions and morality often need to be restrained by various dogma and principles.
As long as the benefits are sufficient, they will be good friends forever.
Li Qi was overjoyed.
Don’t you already have the ingredients for Betty’s alchemy bomb and magic gunpowder? There are also minerals needed by Thomas scholars for their magic-related research.
The price was finally cheap enough for him to accept.
They talked for a long time that night.
The next day, when Li Qi and others were preparing to leave, they were told that a wedding would be held in the church of Three Fork River Fort and they were invited to attend the wedding.
As a pan-believer of the Four Gods, Li Qi's Porcupine Leader was once poor and had no church.
Even though I have money now, I have no intention of building one.
As long as no one brought this up, he was going to keep pretending to be ignorant.
The portraits of the four gods were hung on the wall, and the stained glass covered the entire ceiling. The sunlight shone in, shining with dreamy and bright light.
After church, Li Qi, Philip and others lowered their heads and began to pray.
It's just that unlike Philip and others who pray seriously, Li Qi's thinking is a little divergent.
"Four Gods above, thank you for your blessings." Li Qi silently recited the classic opening words in his heart: "I hope to bless my porcupine leader to have a prosperous business and abundant financial resources, and to bless me to develop peacefully and stably, and to bless me to successfully find more extraordinary potions. Cultivate extraordinary beings, bless me to be promoted to a legend in the future, bless me to ride on a dragon, and if it is accurate, I will come back to you and fulfill your wish, with a gold-plated body."
He is professional in praying. He would go to a temple to pray on the first and fifteenth day of the lunar month on earth. Of course, it is not just temples, but churches, earth temples, Guanyin temples, Taoist temples, etc. It is even quite efficacious. You can also worship old trees.
Anyway, it doesn’t cost anything to say goodbye, and I’d like to offer incense again when it’s effective.
It's a pity that it hasn't worked until time travel.
However, this world is different. There is probably a projection of a god locked in the Pebble Castle crypt at this time. The possibility of the existence of the four gods is very high.
The tide of magic is rising, and maybe the four gods will appear.
When Li Qi opened his eyes, he found Phillip and others looking at him: "What's wrong?"
"Sir Qi, you are a devout believer," Philip sighed: "I have never seen anyone praying like you, praying for such a long time."
"Haha, because I mean it."
I sincerely hope to experience the four gods and then reach the sky in one step.
If you pray for a long time, you have a lot of wishes. After becoming a lord, you want too much.
After a while, the church priest appeared.
Hawkwood Linson, who was wearing a robe, also came over and stood in front of the priest.
"Huh?" Li Qi looked to his left side, where Agnes and Steven were blessing with smiles on their faces, and suddenly felt that something was wrong.
Aren't the two of them getting married?
The church door was opened and everyone turned to look.
Jennifer Linson, wearing a long skirt, walked slowly.
"??" Li Qi had a question mark on his head.
If he remembered correctly, Jennifer Linson was Steven's sister and Hawkwood's daughter, right?
My brain suddenly felt a little exhausted.
"Philip, this is..." Li Qi approached Phillip and asked in a low voice.
National laws and the church cannot allow such an absurd thing as a father to marry his daughter.
Philip whispered: "I heard that Miss Jennifer is not the heir of Sir Hawkwood."
Then he kept silent.
"Ah?...Ah!" Li Qi's mind was a little confused, and it took him a while to realize it.
When he looked at Hawkwood again, his eyes were full of admiration. Li Qi found that this old nobleman who could tolerate a good temper was very capable even though his head was a little green.
If you cuckold me, not only will I not expose it or even pretend not to know, but I will also raise your daughter before marrying her.
