Year 7445, Month 9, Day 7
Morning, when I left Boil Manor in order to go running, not just Zulu and Angela were waiting in front but Giberuti brought along John and Terry as well. It seems everyone else is still getting ready.
"Morning."
""Good morning, master!""
When I greeted them the five slaves all returned my greeting at the same time.
"John, Terry. Do a proper job starting today. You might not be used to things at first but listen closely to the things Catherine and Giberuti say and it's fine if you take your time so carefully think about things."
""Yes!""
They sure are obedient. I really like obedient fellows.
"Giberuti, I made some ice and left it in front of my room. In order to make it easy to use I split it up into three different sized buckets so use it as you please. Since the temperature has decreased a bit I don't think it will melt for a short while. If there's any left over then throw it away in the back."
I made a total of around 100 kg of ice. It's a considerable amount but even if I leave that much around since right now is the start of September it won't last until evening.
"I understand."
I finish up talking over some finer details with Giberuti and soon after Basutoral came out accompanied by Catherine. I left Giberuti and the two slave boys in Catherine's care and ordered the two children to properly listen to things the adults say and do their jobs. In addition I handed Giberuti a bit of extra money for stocking up they should be doing today just in case.
During that time everyone else was gathering outside.
"Alright. Then shall we go?"
While being seen off by Catherine, Giberuti, John, and Terrry the 9 of us excluding Zenom started our running.
...................
We returned from running and after having breakfast we joined up with the {Butchers} and {Sooner} as everyone from the {Slaughterers} did some training until lunch. After lunch when everyone returned to the inn the sausages Catherine and the others were making were of everyone's interest. In just half a day of work what amount were they able to produce and exactly what level of completion were they at?
Today, since morning they've been stocking up on the flavoring and meat other than the casings. Of course, soon after we went our for our running this morning they had breakfast and then went to the butcher I'm sure. In regards to the stocking and money I felt like Catherine was still a bit unreliable so I left it to Giberuti.
"I wonder how much they were able to make? Around 100 of them?"
"100..No matter how you think about it isn't that too few..."
"Hn, I see. Then around 1,000 of them?"
"..Ral sure is extreme. Since it's the first day, wouldn't 200-300 be plenty?"
Ralpha is completely out of the question but Gwine's estimates weren't half bad I guess? Since this time is the first day we had planned for them to be producing around 300 of them to sell. Even if they don't all sell today we'll be smoking them as well, since we're boiling them and then cooling them down right away, as long as they properly have ice on their side to leave them in then the quality should be no problem until tomorrow or the day after tomorrow.
The size of the sausages being produced are using the bowel's of a pig as casings so a thickness of about 3-4 cm, frankfurt size and the length should be around 15 cm so I guess they should be around 100 grams each? Since there's also other things mixed into them as well in order to make around 100 of them they should have stocked up on about 9 kg of pork. 27 kg for 300 of them. We were questioning putting in close to 10% in other mixed ingredients but while the flavor gets a bit lighter mixing in shaved ice gives it a smother taste and reduces the number of failures. It also reduces the number of rupturing accidents when boiling them. It's to the point where it would even be fine to add a bit more.
When we arrived at the Boil Manor the brat ran up and gave us some complaints.
