Treasure hunt begins in England

Chapter 183 Clues
The call came from the Manila hemp plantation on Mindanao Island. The reason why the person in charge of the plantation called at this time was because there were some things that he could not decide as a manager, and Liang En needed to make a decision.

According to the person in charge, the weather forecast said that this year's typhoon season may be stronger than previous years.So some extra funds are needed to renovate the ditches in the plantation and strengthen the houses on the plantation by the way.

Considering the reason why he hadn't been to this property since he acquired it, Liang En decided to take this opportunity to go over there to see the specific situation there, and inspect his own property by the way.

After all, it may take several months for the permission from Egypt to come down, and before that, Liang En intends to find some other interesting things to do.

Compared with a possible trip to the Sinai Peninsula in the future, it is obviously much safer to go to the Philippines, because this plantation is located near Zamboanga City, and it is considered the best place to develop in the entire Mindanao region.

And judging from the information Liang En himself obtained from multiple sources, the plantation and its surroundings belonged to a very peaceful area, and the employees of the plantation were all reliable people.

After confirming the general situation of the destination, Liang En spent a day packing his luggage, and then flew to London with Fan Meng, and then went to Manila via Phnom Penh from London.Then transfer from Manila to Zamboanga.

Different from the previous actions, Liang En did not bring his three ravens with him this time. After all, this time he was just inspecting his own plantation, and there was no need to bring those little cuties with him.

Of course, another reason is that this departure was obviously too hasty, so there was no time to go through the formalities related to the entry and exit of animals.

As for the life of the ravens during this time, Liang En is quite relieved, because the IQ of these three birds is much higher than that of the same kind, and he also asked those people in his ranch to cut a little bit of raw meat every day and put it in the designated place. Location.

Finally, after more than a day of tossing, Liang En successfully took the plane around half the world and landed at the airport in Zamboanga City. It took me a whole day of sleep to recover.

What made Liang En feel a little happy was that the person in charge of the plantation was a traditional Chinese like himself and Fan Meng, so communication was much easier than imagined.

"Is your budget 14200 euros?" On the third day of living in the plantation, Liang En raised his head from behind the desk after reading the budget sheet that the other party brought out, and then looked at the other person sitting at the desk. The chubby middle-aged man on one side of the chair asked.

"Yes, because we need to hire some extra workers, and at the same time buy some cement or even steel bars to overhaul our canals." The person in charge named Huang Tao explained.

"It doesn't cost much to hire workers, but those raw materials cost more. In addition, we need to prepare some extra materials to deal with it."

Huang Tao's budget didn't have much water, because Liang Enlai had also investigated various situations in the area before, and at the same time took a day to check the water supply and drainage system of the entire plantation.

In fact, as Huang Tao said, many of these canals have been in disrepair for a long time, and some of the canals have not been hardened at all, just a ditch dug on the ground.

If this situation is usually enough, then this year's typhoon season, which may be significantly more severe than previous years, will definitely not be able to meet the demand for flood discharge, and severe waterlogging is likely to occur.

The reason for this situation is that this plantation is a very marginal industry for the Skold family, which is mainly engaged in the shipping industry, so most of the time it used to be stocking.

"So what did you usually do when faced with similar bad weather?" Liang En looked at Huang Tao who was opposite and asked, because he remembered that there seemed to be typhoons in the Philippines every year.

The location of this plantation is indeed very good. There are some hills around that can shelter those typhoons, but if the typhoon is relatively large, there is a high probability that it will not be spared.

"We can only clean up the mess every time the typhoon passes, and then the income of that year will be significantly reduced." Huang Tao said helplessly.

"Fortunately, Mr. Skold doesn't care much about the income here, so he just needs to report the loss."

"Understood, I will give you [-] euros." Liang En nodded and said, "In addition to the water canal, you should dig the reservoir in the plantation a bit deeper and repair the potholed concrete road by the way. .”

"Thank you, it would be great if that's the case." After hearing Liang En's decision, Huang Tao showed a happy expression on his face.

For him, after taking over his father's position, he has served the plantation almost all his life, and even owns 5% of the plantation's dividend rights, so he naturally hopes that the plantation can become better.

After transferring the money to the account of the plantation, Liang En didn't need to take care of the rest.So he and Fan Meng went to a surrounding village to take a look around and see what interesting things there were.

After all, the location of this plantation is not far from Zamboanga City. Considering that Zamboanga City was established during the Spanish colonial period, many of the surrounding villages have a certain history.

At the same time, this place is not on the tourist route. Most of the surrounding residents make a living from farming. Except for electricity, the whole village still maintains the style of tens of hundreds of years ago.

So Liang En felt that he might be able to find something of value in these ancient villages, so he and Fan Meng drove a broken pickup truck from the plantation to a small town not far away.

After finding a place to park the car, Liang En and Fan Meng immediately walked around the town together.Soon, he discovered something interesting.

For example, the hand-pressed well in the town square has a metal sink that looks like a shuttle.And Liang En recognized at first sight that this thing should be made of two and a half of an auxiliary fuel tank on an airplane.

What's more interesting is that when Liang En approached the auxiliary fuel tank, he unexpectedly found that the words Showa 19 were written on the corner of the auxiliary fuel tank, which translates to 1944.

In addition to this, Liang En also found more traces left by the Japanese occupying forces in the village.

For example, the stew pot in a certain farmer's house was obviously modified from a Japanese devil's helmet. Another example is that through a window, he could see a 99-type rifle hanging on the wall of a certain resident's house.

Fortunately, quite a few people in this village knew English, so after paying a little money for a few bottles of beer, those villagers were happy to share everything they knew with Liang En.

From the mouths of these villagers, Liang En learned that a field airport belonging to the Japanese devils had been built in this place during World War II.But before the defeat, there were no planes at the airport, and at the same time, there were only about one row of Japanese devils stationed.

But on the third day after the defeat, the Japanese devils stationed here completely disappeared overnight, leaving only an empty airport with a lot of supplies left.
