Treasure hunt begins in England

Chapter 173 Harvest
After returning to the hotel after a day of sightseeing, Liang En immediately selected a [Appraisal (N)] and used it directly against the recipe he found earlier.

Just like the previous card usages, a lot of text appeared in front of his eyes after using this [Appraisal (N)], which made him understand what this book was about.

[In 1730, the so-called tulip era created by Ahmed III, who was ambitious and talented, ended in a coup, and during the coup, many court personnel escaped from the palace. 】

[These court personnel included an eunuch who prepared various dairy products for the sultan. Because he was a little disgusted with court life, the eunuch did not return to the court after the new sultan took office, but spent the rest of his life in a monastery . 】

[Just before his death, he wrote down the recipes that he remembered for decades and put them in the library of the monastery, hoping to leave something for the world to prove that he had gone through. 】

"It seems that this recipe is really something from the Ottoman Sultan's court." After reading these introductions, Liang En raised his eyebrows and muttered softly.

Obviously, the historical value of this Ottoman imperial dairy recipe is not low, so when he confirmed the identity of the recipe, he also obtained two [Detection (N)] and one [Appraisal (N)].

For Liang En, what is important about this recipe is not the recipe itself copied out by the eunuch from memory, but the content in it.He figured he could try to recreate some of the recipe on his ranch.

Although ancient food may not be delicious to today's people, there are dozens of recipes recorded in this book, and Liang En feels that there will always be one or two food that can meet the taste of modern people.

After all, most of the changes in human tastes are due to changes in the surrounding culture, and there will be no genetic changes in a short period of time, so these ancient court diets should be more in line with people's tastes today.

A week of travel time passed quickly, and Liang En received a call from Mr. Skold saying that he wanted to talk to him about the reward for this operation.

So early the next morning after receiving the call, he and his companions flew to Stockholm to discuss the next thing.

However, when Liang En and the others rushed to the designated hotel, they were surprised to find that not only Mr. Scold was waiting here, but even his father, Mr. Scold, was also waiting in the room in a wheelchair. .

The reason for agreeing on this place is also very simple. After all, today is the time to pay the reward, so it is obviously more appropriate to put it in this kind of public place than those private places.

"I'm very glad that you helped my uncle go home, and also helped us bring back the last suicide note left by my uncle." Mr. Scudder said gratefully while shaking Liang En's hand.

The letter that Liang En found in the monastery before was sent to the Skold family through reliable channels on the day it was found, and the old Mr. Skold has confirmed that this letter is the suicide note left by his younger brother.

"Because you have fulfilled our commission perfectly, we will pay you the 70 euros agreed in advance." Mr. Scudder said and transferred 70 euros to Liang En through a transfer.

After confirming that he had received 70 euros, Liang En thought that the matter was over, so after saying a few words on the scene, he prepared to leave with his companions, but unexpectedly, Mr. Scudder had something to say.

"Please wait a moment, here are some other things for you." After finishing speaking, Mr. Scudder took out the kraft paper bag for documents and put it on the table. "

I remember we agreed on 70 euros before. "Looking at the other party's action, Liang En sat back on his seat, stared at the other party and asked seriously. He was naturally skeptical about this sudden benefit.

"Young man, you don't have to be so nervous." Old Scudder, who was sitting in a wheelchair, said at this time. "It's just to fulfill my brother's last wish."

After finishing speaking, the old Mr. Scold asked the waiter beside him to take out a yellowed letter paper sandwiched in a glass plate and handed it to Liang En, and then talked about the origin of this letter paper.

This letter was the content of the letter that Liang En found in the monastery before. It was a suicide note left by Mr. Conrad to his brother.

According to the old Mr. Scout, his younger brother will prepare a suicide note before or during each adventure if he has any bad premonition, and if he can return safely, he will destroy the suicide note.

It's just that when Mr. Conrad disappeared in his last adventure, the Skold family could not find his suicide note, so the Skold family could only deal with his relics in the traditional way within the family.

Judging from the content of this letter, Mr. Conrad at the time had already realized what risks he might encounter in this expedition, so he specially wrote this thing to arrange his own property.

Most of this property will go to family members, but a small amount will go to those who find their whereabouts and bring them back to their hometown.

After figuring out the origin of these extra rewards, Liang finally felt relieved and checked the kraft paper bag that Mr. Skold handed over just now.

The bag contains a series of documents, representing a plantation of more than 120 hectares with a market price of about 110 million US dollars, and this is the legacy left by Mr. Conrad.

"It looks pretty good, but it's a bit far away." Fan Meng whispered after glancing at the location on the document, because these plantations are not in Sweden, or even in Europe, but on the remote island of Mindanao in the Philippines.

It is a fully developed plantation, mainly abaca.According to the documents, the annual net income of the plantation is between 12 and 15 US dollars.

Obviously, this income is not particularly large for the Skold family of the shipping tycoon, but it is not something that can be given to others casually.

Liang En felt that the reason why they were willing to abide by the will to him was most likely because he was a little famous in the academic circle, so if he broke his promise at this time, it would be easy to lay a minefield for the future of the family.

But no matter what, after spending two days, Liang En completed all the formalities and obtained the plantation, and then returned to London with his two companions.

The good news is that this plantation usually does not require Liang En to take much effort to manage it. After all, this type of commercial plantation is now part of some large business system, so the change of owner will not affect them. operation.

Compared with the plantation, Liang En is now more concerned about the purchase of shares in the Pierce family's store.So after returning to London, Liang En immediately called his lawyer to start the negotiation.

Under normal circumstances, this kind of share transaction may require lengthy negotiation time.But this time, Liang En and the others had already communicated beforehand, so the two sides quickly reached an agreement.

According to the content of the agreement, Liang En will spend 30 pounds to purchase a 35% stake in the Pierce family store.At the same time, the preemptive right to purchase the store has been determined in the form of a contract.

All in all, this is a win-win cooperation.Both Liang En and Pierce's Murphy family benefited from this cooperation.
