Chapter 21 (2/2)
Just as he said that, Georgi revealed a disappointed expression.
Seeing the change in Georgi’s expression, Joshua covered his mouth and laughed. “I finally know why you’re so easy to manipulate!”
Hearing this, Georgi’s ears immediately became red. This was the second time he had heard someone tell him that.
Previously, it was Joshua’s butler, Mortimer.
Doubtful after hearing the same thing twice, he asked Joshua, “Can you tell me why?”
Joshua thought for a moment and said to him, “When you talk, pay attention to your expression! Just now, when I mentioned wine, you immediately became interested!
“Then, when I said that wine is not easy to make, you immediately became nervous! Your expression fully betrayed you, so you’re very easy to read and manipulate.”
After listening to Joshua’s words, Georgi finally knew why he was so easy to be framed in the past. It turned out that it was because of his face…
“Thank you, Village Chief Joshua! I’ll think of a way to change this in the future! However, is it really that difficult to brew wine?”
Joshua immediately waved his hand at him and said, “It’s not difficult. During this period of time, I’ll go find Alger and ask him to make some wine barrels. He’s been quite busy recently so I’ll let him get some rest first.”
Upon hearing this, Georgi immediately became happy. After all, wine had become an indispensable thing in his life.
It was not until the sun set that Joshua returned to his home.
Before entering the door, he heard a loud voice shouting, “Is Village Chief Joshua not back yet? Can’t you go and find him?”
Lena had already explained to Alger countless times, “I told you! Village Chief Joshua is very busy today so we have no idea when he will be back!”
“Ah! Is that so?”
After only a few minutes, he asked the same question again. “Village Chief Joshua…”
Having guessed that Joshua had already heard him at the courtyard’s entrance, Joshua hurriedly pushed the door open and walked in.
Seeing that Joshua had returned, Alger jumped up in joy. “Village Chief Joshua, you’re finally back! I’ve been waiting for you this whole afternoon!”
Joshua immediately comforted him. “I’m really sorry. I was delayed by something but I’m back now.”
Alger touched his head and agreed. “It’s good that you’re back! I’ve already prepared the things you want. You can now show me what it’s used for. I’ve been thinking about this for an entire day but I still don’t have the faintest clue.”
In the Eastern continent, everyone used stones to cook things so they had no knowledge of pots!
Therefore, Joshua brought Alger to the kitchen and demonstrated it himself.
He put the vegetables that Lena had already prepared into the big pot and stewed them.
Not long after, a fragrance began to bubble out from the edge of the pot’s lid.
Everyone present was attracted by this delicious fragrance, and their mouths were already drooling!
“Today’s dish is vegetable stewed demon beef! Since there are so many people here, let’s eat it together!”
Upon smelling this fragrance, Alger immediately said, “Wait for a moment, I’ll go get my wife! It just so happens that I’ve brewed quite a lot of wine recently so I’ll also bring some over too.”
Hearing this, Georgi immediately ran behind Alger. He decided to help make sure that Alger had enough pairs of hands to bring back enough wine for everyone.
After tonight, the two of them had become very close drinking buddies!
