"I just noticed that this kind of wood has almost no flame, but the temperature can cook meat. It turns out that it is charcoal!"
Rost said in a deep voice.
"The price of charcoal is very cheap. You can buy a ton for ten taels of silver. When you go back, you can take a batch back."
Lin Fan said.
Hearing that the price of charcoal was very cheap, Queen Yili smiled and said: "Great! Then we will bring back a boatload of charcoal!"
"It's up to you. You can eat as much as you want of the meat skewers here today, and you can eat some of the vegetables here. After the barbecue, they will taste very good."
Lin Fan pointed to the roasted vegetables on the side and said.
These vegetables include spinach, baby greens, lettuce, and leeks. These vegetables are not available in the Empire where the sun never sets. After grilling, they have a unique taste.
The first thing Rost ate was leeks. After just one bite, he fell in love with the taste. When Queen Yili saw Rost eating so much, she curiously picked up a bunch and ate it.
"Well! This! What kind of vegetable is this! How come it tastes so unique!"
Queen Yili said in shock.
"This is leek. No matter whether men or women eat it, it is very nutritious."
Lin Fan explained.
Queen Yili didn't understand the meaning of nourishing, and she was still eating big food. Lin Fan smiled evilly in his heart. By the time it was night, Queen Yili might not be able to sleep.
After having a barbecue, Lin Fan took them for a walk. Today they received 10 million taels of silver, which was enough money to develop a submarine!
After the oil is brought back, ironclad ship training can be carried out on a large scale. At the same time, after the destroyers are built, there will be no shortage of oil fuel in the next few decades.
“Your Highness, where will this money be transported?
Is it in the government inventory?"
Jin Yiwei came over and asked in a deep voice.
In this port, there is an exclusive treasury, which is heavily guarded and prepared by Lin Fan for the subsequent auction of warships.
If the battleship had not decayed, the money would have been stored here, but now, Lin Fan no longer trusted it.
"You quickly send people to send all the money back to the capital and deposit it directly into the palace treasury. If anyone dares to stop him, he will be killed without mercy!"
Lin Fan said coldly.
"Yes! Your Highness the Crown Prince!"
Jin Yiwei took the order.
Immediately afterwards, Lin Fan said again: "Let Ye Liangchen lead the team back!"
He still didn't trust these royal guards to escort the money. After all, the entire capital was staring at these warships, knowing that they could make a lot of money.
Ten million taels of silver is enough to drive anyone crazy. If the person in charge of this port dares to sell a warship privately, there is no guarantee that he will not be tempted by the money.
"Your Highness, we have found out that of the warships docked at this port, only 823 are intact, and the rest are all rotten!"
"Moreover, after we boarded the ship and inspected it, we found that these warships were not the previous warships. It was obvious that someone had secretly replaced the warships!"
"This kind of thing is very serious. Your Highness, do you want to arrest everyone in this port and torture them for interrogation?"
Ye Liangchen came back at this time.
Lin Fan was extremely shocked when he heard that only about 800 battleships were intact and the rest had been replaced. The people here were really bold.
However, there were people from the Empire on which the Sun Never Sets at this time. If we directly executed those people, it would be a joke to outsiders.
"You came back just in time. With the money I just earned from selling the warship, you will escort me back to the capital. You should go and do this now!"
Lin Fan said in a deep voice.
Ye Liangchen also knew the importance of money and immediately took people to handle the matter. Ye Liangchen was the most reliable among the four brothers and the one whom Lin Fan trusted the most.
At this time, in the treasury at the port, a person looked at the mountains of silver in front of him and laughed wildly.
This man's name is Li Feng, and he is a member of the Li family of the Ming Dynasty. He is responsible for guarding this port. The Li family is one of the ten major families of the Ming Dynasty.
He is still in the shipping business. His ability to become the person in charge here is all secretly controlled by the Li family. The purpose is to dock the warships at this port.
You know, warships that can move by themselves can transport more materials and save more manpower, which means they can earn more money.
What's more, the cost of building this battleship is high, and they only need to replace it with a dilapidated cargo ship, which is a hugely profitable deal.
"Haha! With so much money, selling warships is really a profitable business!"
Li Feng said with a big smile.
This treasury was used to store the money from selling warships. In his opinion, the money would definitely be stored here and he could transport it out quietly.
When Lin Fan came to ask, he would find an excuse to evade it. If Lin Fan pressed hard, he would get some back and the matter would be over.
"Stop! This is an important warehouse area, no one is allowed to enter!"
At this moment, there was a burst of angry shouting outside the warehouse.
"How presumptuous! We are members of the Crown Prince's Guards. We are here to collect money. Everyone, please get out of the way!"
Ye Liangchen said coldly.
He was about to go in with his people, but the person guarding the treasury stopped Ye Liangchen and others and said coldly: "This is an important place. No one is allowed to enter without Mr. Li's order!"
kindness!
Ye Liangchen looked at this person indifferently. This person actually dared to ignore His Highness the Crown Prince, and instead recognized that bullshit Lord Li!
"Are you deaf?
We are from the prince's guard, and we are here to collect money!"
Ye Liangchen said coldly.
"I think you are deaf. Everything here is under the control of Mr. Li. Even if the Crown Prince comes, he still orders Mr. Li to do things. Where will it be your turn?"
A guard said coldly.
Clang!
Ye Liangchen and others drew their swords directly. At this time, Li Feng walked out of the treasury with a smile on his face and said: "Haha! Stop it, these guys are the prince's guards, how dare you
offend?"
"Li Feng, may I ask, what are you doing here?"
Upon hearing Li Feng's self-introduction, Ye Liangchen's face was extremely cold. He said in a deep voice: "According to the order of His Royal Highness, I came here to collect money!"
"Oh! I'm actually here to get money. May I ask, how much do you want to take?"
Li Feng asked.
He frowned, how could this dog prince be so heartless? He had just brought in the money and hadn't warmed it yet. He had already sent someone to get the money.
“Of course I’ll take them all!”
Ye Liangchen said.
"This... Sir, you are making things difficult for me. The money in this treasury is all obtained from selling warships, so it should be kept here for safekeeping!"
Li Feng said hurriedly, and then winked at everyone around him.
