Starting My Treasure Hunting 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 uses of the card, after using this [Appraisal (N)], a large amount of text appeared in front of his eyes, allowing him to understand what this notebook was about.
[In 1730, the so-called Tulip Era created by the ambitious and talented Ahmed III came to an end in a coup. During the coup, many palace members fled the palace. 】
[These palace personnel included a eunuch who prepared various dairy products for the Sultan. Because he was a little disgusted with palace life, this eunuch did not return to the palace 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 had not forgotten for decades and put them in the library of the temple, hoping to leave something for the world to prove that he had gone through it. 】
"It seems that this recipe is really from the Ottoman Sultan's court." After reading these introductions, Liang En raised his eyebrows and muttered quietly.
Obviously, the historical value of this Ottoman Empire royal dairy recipe is not low, so after he confirmed the identity of this recipe, he also obtained two [Detection (N)] and one [Identification (N)].
For Liang En, the important thing about this recipe is not the recipe itself, which the eunuch copied out from memory, but the content in it. He thought he could try to recreate some of this recipe on his ranch.
Although ancient delicacies may not be delicious to today's people, there are dozens of recipes recorded in this book. Liang En feels that there will always be one or two delicacies that can meet the taste of modern people.
After all, most changes in human tastes are due to changes in surrounding culture, and genetic changes will not occur in a short period of time. Therefore, these ancient palace diets should be more in line with today's people's tastes.
The week's travel time passed quickly, and Liang En received a call from Mr. Scold, 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 took a plane to Stockholm to prepare for the next matter.
However, when Liang En and the others rushed to the designated hotel after a long journey, they were surprised to find that not only Mr. Scoud was waiting here, but even his father, Mr. Scood, was also waiting in the room in a wheelchair. .
The reason why we agreed to this place is also very simple. After all, today is the time to pay, so it is obviously more suitable to place it in this kind of public place than in those private places.
"I'm glad that you helped my uncle go home, and also helped us bring back the last suicide note left by my uncle." Mr. Scord said gratefully, holding Liang En's hand.
The letter that Liang En found in the monastery was sent to the Scood family through reliable channels on the day it was found, and Mr. Scood Sr. has determined that this letter is the suicide note left to him by his younger brother.
"Because you have perfectly completed our commission, we will pay you the 700,000 euros agreed in advance." Mr. Scold said and transferred 700,000 euros to Liang En through transfer.
After confirming the receipt of 700,000 euros, Liang En thought the matter was over, so he said a few words and prepared to leave with his companions. Unexpectedly, Mr. Scold had something else to say.
"Please wait a moment, there are some other things I want to hand over to you." After saying that, Mr. Scord took out the brown paper bag used to hold documents and put it on the table. "
I remember we agreed before that it was 700,000 euros. "Looking at the other party's action, Liang En sat back in his seat, then stared at the other party and asked seriously. He was naturally skeptical about this sudden benefit.
"Young man, there's no need for you to be so nervous." Old Scott, who was sitting in a wheelchair, said at this time. "This is just to fulfill my brother's last wish."
After saying that, Old Mr. Scord asked the waiter who was following him to take out a piece of yellow letter paper filled with text sandwiched in a glass plate and handed it to Liang En, and then talked about the origin of the letter paper.
This letter is the content of the letter that Liang En found in the monastery. It can be regarded as a suicide note left by Mr. Conrad to his brother.
According to Mr. Scold Sr., his brother would prepare a suicide note before or during every adventure if he had a bad premonition, and would destroy the suicide note if he could return safely.
It's just that when Mr. Conrad disappeared on his last adventure, the Scood family was unable to find his suicide note, so the Scood family could only deal with the relics he left behind in the traditional way within the family.
Judging from the content of this letter, Mr. Conrad at that time was already aware of the risks he was likely to encounter on this expedition, so he wrote this specifically to arrange his property.
Most of these properties will be left to family members, but a small portion will be left to those who find their whereabouts and bring them back to their hometown.
After figuring out what these extra rewards were, Liang finally relaxed and looked at the brown paper document bag that Mr. Scord handed over just now.
Contained in the bag was a series of documents representing a plantation of more than 120 hectares with a market value of about US$1.1 million. This was the legacy left by Mr. Conrad.
"It looks pretty good, but it's a little far away." Fan Meng glanced at the location on the document and whispered, because these plantations are not in Sweden, or even in Europe, but on the remote island of Mindanao in the Philippines.
This is a fully developed plantation, growing mainly abaca. According to the documents, the plantation’s annual net income is between US$120,000 and US$150,000.
Obviously, this income is not particularly large for the Scood family, a shipping tycoon, but it is not something that can be given casually.
Liang En felt that the reason why they were willing to abide by the will to him was most likely because he was now well-known in the academic circle, so if he broke his promise at this time, it would be easy to cause trouble for the family's future.
But anyway, 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 does not require Liang En to spend much effort in managing it. After all, commercial plantations of this type are now part of some large business systems, so the change of owners will not affect them. operations.
Compared to the plantation, Liang En is now more concerned about the Pierce family's investment in the store. So after returning to London, Liang En immediately called his lawyer to start negotiations.
Under normal circumstances, such a share deal might require lengthy negotiations. But this time Liang En and the others had already communicated in advance, so the two sides reached an agreement quickly.
According to the agreement, Liang En will spend 300,000 pounds to purchase 35% of the shares of the Pierce family store. At the same time, the first right to acquire the store was determined in the form of a contract.
In short, this is a win-win cooperation. Both Liang En and Pierce's Murphy family have benefited from this cooperation.
