I Really Am Not The Lord of Demon Chapter 299 - Wine brewing

Chapter 299: Wine brewing

Ling PingAn finally returned to the door of the shop, carrying two bags of grapes.
He took out his key and opened the door.
Then, he carried the grapes in his hand.
The Kitten Bastet followed him in.
Ling PingAn placed the two bags of grapes in his hand on the table.
Then, he collapsed on the sofa.
“I’m tired…”
“I’m so tired…”
He waved his hand, which was not sore at all, imagining how tired he looked.
So, he stuck out his tongue and panted.
Bastet walked up to him and gently stuck out its tongue to lick its master’s hand as if to comfort him.
“Little Boy, you have a conscience!” Ling PingAn was very satisfied.
He rubbed the little guy’s head.
Then, he sat up and looked up at the clock on the wall. It was already past four.
“Let’s watch TV and get ready to brew the wine!” Ling PingAn said. Then, he walked to the cabinet, sat down, and turned on the TV.
It just so happened that the news was on.
An aerial shot appeared on the screen.
On the vast plains, the smoke had stopped. Army after the army was withdrawn from the front line.
The scene changed and it came to the scene of a press conference.
Two foreign men were sitting in their respective seats.
Countless cameras below the stage were clicking non-stop.
“The foreign ministers of Southern and Northern TianZhu signed the armistice agreement at 3.25 pm local time today. According to the agreement, the two parties will completely disengage from contact and cease fire starting from 5 pm today.”
“It is reported that this peace agreement was pushed forward by the peacemakers on both sides.”
“In this regard, the spokesperson of the Federal Empire’s Foreign Ministry expressed appreciation at the press conference held on this afternoon. The spokesperson said that the maintenance of regional peace and stability requires the concerted efforts of everyone. I hope that Northern and Southern TianZhu can work together to build mutual relations under the premise of peace, development, and stability. For this, the Federal Empire is willing to provide the necessary help…”
Ling PingAn’s mouth dropped wide open as he watched.
“This world is changing fast…” he said.
Yesterday, they were still fighting to the death, the higher-ups of the two countries were saying harsh words to each other.
One said that they wanted to blow the other party back to the feudal society, while on the other hand, the other party mentioned that they wanted to blow them back to the stone era.
In the blink of an eye, peace was achieved?
Ling PingAn thought for a moment, took out his phone, and opened WeChat read. As expected, the trending topic at the front row was ‘Peace between North and South TianZhu’.
He clicked on it and saw the news and videos one after another.
Only then did he understand what had happened.
It turned out that the two countries parliaments had betrayed them!
The North TianZhu held an emergency meeting and voted to remove the chief of staff and the Minister of Defense who were in charge of the war.
The South TianZhu had even changed their king.
The new king was in charge of peace.
All of this happened in the middle of the night yesterday.
At dawn, the troops of both sides were notified to stop fighting and make peace!
Therefore, countless discussions and analysis appeared on WeChat read.
Some people said that this was the victory of the peaceful spirit and the awakening of the people themselves.
Then, they were slapped in the face and a bunch of videos of the TianZhu countries killing each other were uploaded.
In terms of fighting, the TianZhu subcontinent was even more powerful than Kunlun State!
Some people said that this was achieved under the mediation of the special envoy of the Federal Empire.
However, these were immediately refuted because from the battle to the ceasefire, everything was too fast!
The federal empire couldn’t react.
Other than these, there was also some strange voice.
For example, there was some saying from the great fortune-teller of Southern Tianzhu.
Ling PingAn laughed out loud when he saw this.
However, this was normal. There were all sorts of people on the federal empire’s Internet.
Those conspiracy theorists were like carps crossing the river.
Whenever there was news, he could always see these guys taking advantage of the hot topics.
Ling PingAn was used to it.
He put away his phone and pouted. “What era is this…”
“There are people who still believe in these boring things!”
“Right?” He asked Bastet.
Meow!
The kitten meowed softly. It was very supportive of its master’s judgment!
Ling PingAn shook his head with a smile and stood up. “Let’s get prepared to brew wine!”
He walked to the table, picked up the two bags of grapes, and walked upstairs.
Bastet followed immediately.
Creak creak…
The stairs that had been repaired were indeed much more stable. The sounds that came out were no longer loud as before.
However, it sounded even more creepy.
It was even scarier than the background sounds in horror movies.
Ling PingAn shook his head as he listened. “This old staircase… is like this…”
After all, this staircase was older than him!
It was already a miracle that it was not broken completely after so many years.
Ling PingAn carried the grapes and walked briskly to the kitchen. Then, he took out two large wooden buckets that had been washed since last year’s brewing.
These two buckets were very old wooden buckets that were tied together with iron rings. They were the same age as Ling Pingan’s and were made by his mother when he was born.
After taking down these two buckets, Ling PingAn got himself a clean cloth to wipe them clean.
Then, he poured the washed grapes into the two buckets.
As a professional winemaker who had been learning to brew wine since young, Ling PingAn’s capacity was not very good and he could only drink a cup.
However, he had his special skills and experience in wine brewing.
When others made wine, they usually removed the grape stalks and extract the juice.
For Ling PingAn, no!
Because he had his own experience.
He looked at the two barrels full of grapes and tiptoed to take two large jars of brown sugar from the top of the cabinet.
These were the brown sugar that he had made by hand last year.
Then, he poured all the brown sugar into the two wooden barrels.
Ling PingAn picked up a wooden mallet and began to pound the grapes in the wooden barrels.
One Hammer, one hammer…
Until all the grapes were mashed into a paste!
Then he laughed.
Ling PingAn covered the two wine barrels that were already a little red firmly after wiping the sweat from his forehead. Lastly, he stuffed them back into the cabinet.
The rest of the process would be taken over by the yeast.
In the wooden barrels, the grapes would be mixed with brown sugar and then fermented.
The brown sugar that Ling PingAn brewed personally had a special characteristic — it would make the grapes fermented more thoroughly.
There was no need to add any other additives in the midway.
The wine that was brewed would become ruddy and full of fragrance.
After stuffing the wine barrel under the cabinet, Ling PingAn turned around and looked at the kitten behind him.
“Little Darling, Brother is awesome, right?”
Meow!
The kitten shouted out clearly and agreed with its master’s words!
He was simply too awesome.
There was no one in the world that was more awesome than its master.
Especially when Bastet recalled the movement when its master swung the mallet just now.
With a single hammer, an endless amount of psionic power was hammered into the juice of the grape.
Each hammer was equivalent to draining the psionic power of the entire city.
Thus, the grape, which was originally an ordinary object, became a treasure that was comparable to the divine fruit on the divine tree!
More importantly, the brown sugar that her master sprinkled.
Every piece was covered with Miss Sasha’s blessings.
There would be not a single yeast dared to slack off under Miss Sasha’s blessings!
But all of this was just the beginning!
Bastet knew that following the next days, the master’s most hardworking and loyal slaves would use all of their resources to take care of these two barrels of wine.
Those little things that were at most the size of pigeon eggs were once a notorious race in the universe.
But now, for the sake of their master, they gave up their life in the universe and came here to do what their ancestors did countless years ago. They used their tentacles and psionic power to make every piece of food here, making thorough changes!
So that they could meet their master’s requirements completely!
This was their mission, their glorious mission!
Ling PingAn clapped his hands, stood up, and said to Bastet, “Alright, let’s go downstairs…”
“We have to start working!”
He hadn’t even written a word today!
Meow!
The kitten meowed and followed its master immediately.
Some small things with black glowing tentacles appeared from the gap in the cupboard behind it.
They flapped their wings as if they had crawled out from another dimension.
They saw the two wine barrels.
They knew that this was a new mission! Hence, they surrounded the barrels and used their long tentacles to dig deep into the wine barrels and began to check every drop of grape juice.
They had to ensure that there would not have any accidents to their master’s wine!
It’s a gamble on the life and honour of the Summer Bug!
