Heaven’s Intention

The waves are rippling.

"Adult. Yuanyuan Port is in front of us. There are not many vegetables on our ship. Should we replenish it at Yuanfan Port?"

A fleet, some distance away from Yuanfan Port, a chief officer in charge of vegetables, food and water reserves came to the fleet commander's cabin and made his suggestions.

"Yes, just stop at Yuanfan Port." The fleet commander thought for a moment and agreed.

Without vegetables, it is definitely not a good thing for everyone living on the fleet, and it is easy to form scurvy.

Scurvy has historically been a serious threat to the health of seafarers. It has been popular among seafarers, explorers and the military for the past millennium, especially among voyage seafarers, so there is "the fear of sailors" Known as.

However, hundreds of years ago, it was found that the disease was related to diet. After drinking orange juice and lemon juice, it was found that it can treat and prevent scurvy, so vegetables are indispensable on board.

"By the way, remember to buy foods that can be stored for a longer period of time. We go out this time. It will take a long time. If it is vegetables that cannot be stored, buy less." Stopped the knight who turned and went out, fleet The commander added. "You need to know that our time is running out. Our next trip needs to speed up, so as to ensure that we arrive on the battlefield on time. This time, we must have sufficient reserves."

The commander's expression was very serious. His eyes fell on the first officer, and he said seriously: "You are one of my best men. I hope you can handle this matter well."

"Please be assured that I will try my best to get this thing done. When I get to the port in front, I will immediately take someone up and search to see if there are any vegetables that have been stored for a long time." A salute was given, and the answer was very serious.

The commander nodded with satisfaction: "Okay, I believe you, you go to work!"

"Thank you very much for your trust." The first officer bowed his head again and replied respectfully.

It wasn't until the step came out of the cabin where the commander was, and came to the deck that the slight wind blew, the chief mate exhaled gently.

Looking up at the sky, I feel that the sun will be different every day from departure to the present. Obviously, the sun is getting brighter every day.

unfortunately. Spring should have been a warm and pleasant season, but these people will go to the battlefield, although the achievement of the war will bring them a better life.

But who can guarantee that he will be the one who comes back alive?

"Sir Sack, the vegetable reserve on the fleet is only enough to eat today." At this moment, the chief officer was overwhelmed with emotion, the soldier in charge of the vegetable library came over and said to the knight.

This situation was already known to Sark. He looked at the mysterious port where the outline was gradually visible, and then turned around and commanded the soldier: "Call some more people and follow me to this later Turn around at the port to see if there are any vegetables that can be stored for a longer period of time. It is always a waste of time to constantly replenish the food library. There is not much time in our itinerary.

"By the way, you can buy more lemons and oranges. One by one wrapped in paper and placed in a wax-tight bucket."

This method is the most effective and cheapest method.

"Yes, I'm calling someone to go." Seeing that the sergeant was going to take them to buy food, the soldier immediately turned to find someone.

Turning around, he stood on the deck, and like the soldiers on the inspection, looking at the port closer and closer to them in the distance, Sark's heart was somewhat bottomless.

"I don't know if I can complete the task as scheduled." Although he had heard of the prosperity of Yuanfan Port, he hadn't come in person after all. He was a little uncertain about whether he could complete the task he should complete.

At least, you can first add a batch of vegetables so that the people in the fleet will not have any food to eat tomorrow. This is what he urgently needs to solve.

"It doesn't matter, at least it can be supplemented with lemons and oranges, but I don't know if there is any in this city now, it's not the season now."

The sky is very blue, a few white clouds float gently, and the sea under the sun looks so blue and beautiful.

The mysterious port in the distance is like a beautiful veiled girl, who is uncovering the veil in front of everyone, making people look forward to.

"It's a magnificent and beautiful port ..." When Yuanfan Port showed the whole face in front of him, Sack couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

Magnificence is clear at a glance, and beauty also comes from order and cleanliness. On the dock, there is very little trash everywhere.

"Yeah, this port is really beautiful, but I don't know if it can be so prosperous when the war sweeps over here." On the side, there were three associates.

"I hope it won't sweep over here. It's a pity that such a prosperous place was destroyed by the war." Looking at the beautiful port in front of him, Sark whispered, and he shook his head afterwards. This was not something he could decide of.

At this moment, the fleets of all countries have begun to focus on departure, and the fleets of the elves are also ready to start a war. In this case, any place may become a victim of war.

"An inspection team is coming in front." Suddenly someone said.

Sark quickly awoke from contemplation and looked forward. Sure enough, he saw a battleship and greeted him towards this side.

Naturally, the knight responsible for this kind of thing used to negotiate with and explain to the people from the opposite side. After confirming the identity of these people, the warship opened the way and led them to Yuanfan Port.

According to the regulations of Yuanfan Port, there can only be two warships close to the edge of the port. The other warships must maintain a certain distance from the port. However, a small boat can be used to pick up and drop the soldiers from the warship to the port.

The members of this fleet from afar have no dissatisfaction with this regulation. This kind of regulation is actually reasonable. In order to protect the safety of the port, there is nothing wrong with this regulation.

"Hello, welcome to Yuanfan Port." The port officer in charge of receiving the fleet received the news and rushed over to have a warm conversation with the Sark who came ashore.

When he learned that Sack was going to buy vegetables that could be stored for a longer period of time, a smile appeared on the face of the officer: "You chose to go to our port for food supplement this time. It is the right place. Maybe you do n’t know. In our territory, there is a new type of food called canned food. In order to allow some people who have been working at sea for a long time to eat vegetables frequently, our main business is canned vegetables, which can be used to seal various vegetables in canned food. It can be kept for at least one year. During this year, it is possible to open the canned food for consumption at any time. How about, do you think about canned vegetables? "

"Canned vegetables?" Although such things as canned food have spread, it is not yet widespread. As the first officer, it was the first time he heard the name, and Sack was somewhat confused.

However, immediately afterwards, the officer took them with great enthusiasm to the rest of the port. He ordered some canned vegetables to be opened immediately for them to taste.

Sark looked suspiciously and found that most of them were stoneware, but a few of them were glass bottles, which can be seen from the inside, compressed vegetables.

"This is what our territory has found that foods sealed in glass containers are not easily spoiled if properly heated. Of course, glass bottles are relatively expensive and canning is not cost-effective, just a few examples, most of which are made of stoneware The appearance of these stoneware is exactly the same. They can be stacked and placed in a box. They take up very little space. When they are used up, they can also be used as lunch boxes and water. "

The officer introduced and said.

In fact, this method is to process the food, put it in a wide-mouth jar, put it in a boiling water pot, heat it for 30 to 60 minutes, then plug it with a cork while it is hot, and then use wire to strengthen or seal with wax. In this way, food can be preserved for a long time without spoilage.

Sack and others were immediately interested in this new type of food: "How long can this last?"

"If you don't unpack it, you can keep it for at least one month without rot." The officer replied: "And these vegetables have been compressed. When they are eaten, just open them and put them in the pot."

On the earth, shortly after the advent of such glass cans, the Englishman Peter Durant made tinplate cans and obtained a patent in the United Kingdom.

However, in this world, the manufacturing process of tinplate is very difficult. In the foreseeable future, tinplate canning is impossible.

"Then I will take it back to try it," said Sack, and with the permission of the local officer, he returned to the ship with a few cans and handed it to the head of the fleet.

"Oh, this is canned food? I seem to have heard of it." The commander had heard of the new things that have emerged in the past few years. He considered it and said, "Try to cook it."

It's easy, the cook just cooked it, and a moment later, a pot of vegetable soup appeared.

"The compression is very small, but the cooking is very large, and one can can meet the needs of a day of vegetable soup on a boat." The chef said with the report.

After a sip, the commander nodded, the taste was not very good, but it was much better than the vegetables stored in this way.

Fleet management, including the fleet commander, are very interested in this kind of canned food, and feel that it is a very good idea to buy this kind of canned vegetables.

"Well, all cans are good. These clay pots have very little storage space. We can store more vegetables and food. After eating, we can continue to rain and store fresh water." The fleet commander immediately noticed this Click to make a decision.

So, Sack took dozens of people up, and half an hour later, a special cargo ship came, and each ship was supplemented with a lot of canned vegetables.

Almost within a few days, the church of the agricultural goddess in the territory of Romont received the order to go out.

Luo Fang delivered to the Fifth Fleet of the Church of the Agricultural Goddess, who will also be commanded by the people of the Church of the Agricultural Goddess, and will soon leave the port of Yuanfan.

"Romon, please be assured that the Church of the Goddess of Agriculture will cherish the Fifth Fleet, and will never let the Fleet lose any unnecessary losses."

Alini wore a bishop's robe, representing the church of the goddess of agriculture, and appeased Romon.

The place where they were standing at this time was Yuanfan Port, and the fleet ready to depart was already docked at the port.

Luo Meng's eyes have not left this fleet, listening to his wife comforting himself, Luo Meng nodded gently.

"Elina, you can rest assured that I decided to give up the command of the fleet. I won't regret the decision I made." Luo Meng smiled and said.

I have long been determined to give up this fleet completely, and I do n’t know.

Listening to her husband ’s words, Alini ’s face showed a smile. She also looked at the fleet, saying, “In fact, as a fleet, if you ca n’t continue to be hone on the battlefield, sooner or later will be glorious . "

"I understand." Luo Meng said lightly.

He exhaled softly, and then said to Alina: "Actually, I leave the Fifth Fleet like this. I am not the saddest person. The saddest person is over there."

Following his gaze, Alene saw the figure standing alone, far away.

"Lord Shakat, okay?"

"He will be fine, but now his heart will definitely not feel good." Luo Meng said with a sigh: "I used to say a few words to him."

"Well, well, you go." Eleanor nodded.

She can understand the helplessness and sadness of these men, but sometimes, the choice of things, you must make a choice, you have to give up.

From Alene, walking to Shakart's side, Romon said nothing, but patted his shoulder heavily, giving him enough comfort.

"Master, rest assured, I'm fine." Shakat turned his head and saw that the person was Romon, and said.

But even if he pretends to be relaxed again ~ www.NovelMTL.com ~ that kind of heavy feeling still makes him feel uncomfortable, but in order not to worry the Lord Lord, he is not trying to show it.

"I know, you will be fine ... well, look at them again, the fleet is about to leave." Romon patted Shakart's shoulder again, looking at the sea, suddenly said.

Shakat turned his head and saw that the fleet had begun to sail towards the depths of the sea.

They walked farther and farther, long shadows, so long in the sun.

Looking at their shadows, they gradually disappeared into his own eyes. This feeling, Shakat had never felt before. He had never known before that there would be such an uncomfortable feeling in the world.

Although it was known that there would be such a day, when he looked at the fleet away, Shakat's eyes could not help but red.

This is the fleet he created in one hand, it took seven or eight years!

Will never come back later. (!)
