บท 61: Wine And A Few Grains Of Epiphany

Alcohol had always been a substance that has entranced mankind. It has been brewed since ancient times and even animals were not averse to it, feeding on rotten fruits to gain the same effect.

Lucius had seen the dietary habits here and knew most people drank wine, along with their meals. He had also seen the servants eat and even they drank wine with it, unlike something like beer.

Lucius read more and realized that beer production, or rather any alcohol that was made from grains, was not produced in the region. What little amounts did come here was from the other regions.

'Is the grain production really this low here?' Lucius wondered.

He searched this up and discovered his guess was indeed true. While the soil in the territory was decent for growing fruits and vegetables, the amount of grains that grew here were less relative to them.
