Manor Lord in the Pokémon World

Chapter 145 Brewing Starfruit Wine

Just then, Marnie drove by in her truck, the wheels crunching over the gravel road.

Fang Zhou raised his hand to express his gratitude, then turned around, clapped his hands, and urged everyone to get to work:

"Come on, herd the chicks into the chickhouse, and take the big milk tankers to the cowshed!"

Several chicks flapped their little wings and chirped as they circled around his feet.

Fangzhou glanced at the slightly cramped chicken coop and scratched his chin.

We'll have to contact Robin to help expand the place; it's too small to fit everyone right now.

Fangzhou glanced at the group of furry little creatures and made a decision.

Let's arrange for a group of people to stay at the textile shop for a couple of days first.

Upon hearing Fangzhou's arrangement, a few slightly larger chicks emerged from the flock, puffed out their chests, spread their wings slightly, and walked at the front in a serious manner, seemingly leading the way for their new companions.

The lead chick's comb on its head had turned colorful (the hen also has a comb, but it's very small).

These are the first batch of chicks that Ark bought. After eating the manor's magical crops, they not only lay eggs with peculiar effects, but their appearance also seems to have changed.

Fangzhou scratched his head. If he continued to raise it like this, wouldn't it turn into the Seven-Colored Pineapple Exploding Chicken, the divine beast from his previous life?

Meanwhile, the Milk Tanks, led by Kirlia, slowly walked into the cowshed.

The original inhabitants of the cowshed began to enthusiastically help them produce their first batch of milk.

Fangzhou looked at the color of Moo Moo Milk and took a small sip.

To be fair, the quality of the milk produced is indeed not as good as that of the milk raised at Linfeng Manor.

However, Ark is confident that after consuming the farm's crops, the quality will soon catch up.

He turned and walked to several bags with the Joja logo, bending down like a Santa Claus unloading cargo, taking the items out one by one.

These are gifts he bought for the Pokémon at the manor.

Everyone immediately gathered around, their eyes sparkling as they stared at the colorful packaging.

The whole manor was bustling with activity, like it was Chinese New Year, with a cacophony of chatter.

Fangzhou pulled a massage brush from the bag and waved it at the large milk tanks: "Here, this is a massage brush. You can help each other brush your backs!"

A large milk can curiously approached, sniffed it, then snatched the brush in its mouth and clumsily rubbed it against its companion's back a couple of times.

The large milk can that was being brushed shuddered suddenly, then let out a comfortable "purring sound."

Its four hooves kicked wildly, its chubby body twisted and turned, and its tail swung wildly.

"Snoring! Snoring!"

It turned its head, its eyes narrowing into slits.

Two more times!

Two more times!

So comfortable!

Fangzhou smiled; to Milk Tank, this was like a soul extractor from its past life.

After giving gifts to each Pokémon, Ark rolled up his sleeves, called everyone over, and patted the largest bag next to him, which contained all sorts of tools.

"We're going to do something big tonight!"

All the Pokémon showed expressions of excitement and anticipation.

What's wrong?

"We're going to make starfruit wine! And we'll start fermenting MooMoo yogurt too!"

All the Pokémon's eyes lit up.

Make starfruit wine!

Fermented Moo Moo Yogurt!

Great!

Although they had no idea what it was, that didn't stop them from cheering.

"Come on, everyone, let's go into the kitchen. Tropical Dragon, you take the Wood Gecko and be in charge of picking the starfruit."

A whole bunch of Pokémon rushed into the kitchen, ready to pounce.

"Kirullian, here are starfruit, sugar, and wine." Fangzhou placed the groceries on the table.

Then place a small scale on it.

"You can weigh it; the weight ratio of fruit, sugar, and wine is approximately 1:0.5:1.5."

Kirullian nodded to indicate that she understood.

To make star fruit wine, you need to choose ripe, golden-yellow star fruit with a firm texture for a richer aroma.

Unripe star fruit is sour and astringent, while overripe star fruit is prone to spoilage.

But there's no need to worry about this with the star fruit produced by the estate; they're all top-quality.

Ark then took out a bunch of bottles and jars. "Powdermouse, you're in charge of using your superpowers to control the water flow and clean the bottles. Swablu, use Wind Rush, and Whimsicott, use Tailwind to dry the bottles."

These bottles and jars must be kept dry and clean, otherwise the wine produced may become moldy and spoil.

The three Pokémon obeyed and went to the water tank to handle it.

The eyes of the poisonous moth gleamed, and the water seemed to come alive, twisting and turning in the air as it entered the bottle and washed back and forth.

Fangzhou, on the other hand, began brewing yogurt.

Making yogurt is very simple.

Turn on the yogurt maker to start heating, and add some water.

Take the container out, pour in the Moo Moo Milk, and add the lactic acid bacteria.

Finally, once the temperature reaches the appropriate level, put the container back in.

Throughout the process, the Fire Monkey used its finger to light a spark to ensure that the event was conducted in a sterile environment.

If yogurt is contaminated with other bacteria, it can cause diarrhea.

The yogurt was easily prepared, and at the same time, Kirlia also prepared the starfruit.

Fangzhou looked at Cocodora, who had just returned after writing the letter.

"Come on, Coco Dora, use your alloy claws to cut off the black edges of the five ridges of the starfruit."

These edges contain astringent substances, which can affect the taste of the wine.

He gestured with his finger to indicate the thickness, "After you're done, cut the star fruit into pieces, about 0.5 to 1 centimeter, into star shapes, so it will absorb the flavor better."

"Coco!" Coco Dora nodded to indicate that she understood, and her claws instantly gleamed with a metallic sheen as she began to peel and cut the skin into pieces with a snapping sound.

Fangzhou turned and walked towards the pool, wanting to see how the bottle was being washed.

As soon as he got closer, he froze, and three black lines appeared on his forehead.

The wind sprite was holding a silver feather and waving it around happily.

Each wave of the bottle creates a violent gust of wind, making it clang and rattle.

The blue cottonbirds and powder moths nearby cheered.

so amazing!
