The aroma of the meal is already very strong, but unlike the previous cooking techniques with a clear Ottoman style, the current food served by the chef is a pot of cheese and various seafood, which looks quite hearty. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

However, the traditional paella, which is made mainly with rice, is now served on a plate full of seafood with a rich broth, and the plate next to it is also neatly cut white bread, accompanied by pieces of fine cheese and sausage, as well as knives, forks and silver spoons.

"Your Majesty, I hope it didn't disturb your rest."

First Officer Green walked over quickly, still with that steady appearance, and his face did not change much, but there was also a little less of the original Ottoman accent in the words of yes, but it was similar to Hall and Wilmot.

He had also changed faintly, and he became more and more respectful to Levi, and the salute room was also in the traditional Spanish style, and he said softly: "We can start again after lunch, but as discussed before, about the purchase of raw materials needed for the construction of the territory project, do you want to continue to buy?" ”

"Let's go back, we don't need to buy those things right now."

There was a relaxed smile on the corner of Levi's mouth, he already had a system building and he was able to build a city on his own, and now he needed to think about the imminent explosion of the population of Cape Town, and their daily food, drink, and clothing.

The Sheriff's Mansion is a primary administrative unit given by the system, but this building is also a building that is necessary for a city in the game. And it is precisely because of this sheriff's mansion that his Cape Town can be called stable, because the recruitment options and population bonuses it brings also represent the foundation of a city!

"Fill our cargo hold and deck with food, buy more bread, sausages, bacon and the like, and fresh fruit."

Levi's tone was affirmative, he looked at First Officer Green and smiled, shrugged his shoulders lightly and smiled: "These foods are purchased more according to the base of a month, don't consider the load of our ship, maybe under God's arrangement, our ship will become bigger and longer." ”

"In the name of God alone." First Officer Green bowed his head slightly, and drew a cross on his chest, and the sailors around him were not surprised, as if they were used to it.

Because Levi locked the faction, the original flagship of his own, the Devoe merchant ship was about to become the Spanish galleon, although it was still in the appearance of the Devo Mall because Levi did not transform immediately, but the sailors had already subtly completed the transformation, all in personality and subconscious, becoming a pious and fanatical Catholic.

The Spanish Empire was a devout and fanatical Catholic state, and even today it still has the infamous Inquisition of the Middle Ages.

This fanatical institution bordered on madness, but in the Middle Ages it burned to death an unknown number of so-called witches and infidels, and even when the Spanish Empire was rebuilt to drive out the power of Ottoman Turkey in the southern peninsula, tens of thousands of Spaniards who had converted to God were burned alive.

Now they have been converted directly from a group of Yislans into Catholics, and they have now represented them as true Spaniards.

Lunch has begun, and the Spanish-style seafood has a sweet and savory temptation, the soup splashes in his mouth, and the fatty clam and fish meat make Levi can't help but admire, it is indeed a well-cooked delicacy.

The twenty sailors who had been converted into Spaniards also quickly ate their own lunch, and the following afternoon they still had to be busy, especially the cargo that would fill the entire cabin and deck, which made them all mentally prepared to do a big job.

His Majesty the King of Spain is in their company, and this is enough to keep their morale high, for it is already a supreme honor in their hearts.

Everything went according to plan, after lunch, except for the two cooks who cleaned up the table, after a short rest, First Officer Green walked briskly towards the shore with four sailors, they needed to buy a lot of food in the market, and there were also many professional supply merchants in the old silver city that was dedicated to stopping and replenishing in the Ocean Mall.

The bulging barrels had been carried in the wagon, and a group of hired dock stevedores were also strictly reprimanded by several overseers, and quickly carried a large number of barrels towards the Devo merchant ship.

The labor stevedores on Xiaoyinpan Island are also mostly made up of poor people, and if you believe this group of guys who have nothing, then the final result is probably the loss of most of the goods, which the merchants on the docks all know.

First mate Green also stood on the side of the ship, and several sailors watched the stevedores below vigilantly, carrying the heavy barrels towards the cabin, and counting the barrels one by one to make sure that nothing happened.

After all, these wooden barrels are all their food supplies in Cape Town for nearly a month, and they are all food that can be stored for a long time, and they can't be messed around at will.

Freshly baked barley bread, sausages with a hint of spices, and freshly made bacon meat, and of course a dozen barrels filled with fresh fruit, the sour lemon trees in the mountains on the island are quite famous.

A large number of ocean-going merchant ships will come to the small Yinpan Island to replenish, and the most important supply item is the small leafy sour lemon trees that are scattered all over the mountains on the mountain range of the small Yinpan Island, this wild lemon tree can produce sour lemons wrapped in thick peels and stored for a long time in dry wooden barrels.

Ordinary lemons can be stored for a month at room temperature, but this small folic sour lemon can be stored for up to two months despite its small pulp, making it an important supply for almost any ocean-going merchant ship that comes to Xiaoyinpan Island.

Therefore, Levi also bought more than a dozen barrels of this sour lemon, although he does not need to go to sea, but these essential fruits still need to be supplemented, after all, even if this sour lemon is not used for eating, it is just to soak in water to increase the taste of the mouth, and it can be mixed with rum as an aperitif before cooking.

"That's 80 barrels of bran bread, 50 barrels of this year's bacon, 30 barrels of sausages, 20 barrels of sour lemons, 10 barrels of air-dried chicken, and two barrels of last month's honey."

First Officer Green came to the bow of the ship, his expressionless face was a little more respectful, he gently took out his notebook in his arms, looked at the data he wrote down with lead on it, and also quickly reported: "At the same time, I also bought forty lead plates, because our lead bullet reserves are close to the red line, and we need to continue to make a batch of bullets." ”

Turning the pages of the notebook, a faint smile appeared on the calm face of the first mate Green, and said: "The total cost is close to 200 large silver coins, which are purchased by the branch of the Senge Chamber of Commerce, so the cheque is also used. ”

"And just like that, we return to Cape Town."

Standing on the bow floor of the ship, Li Wei leaned on the wooden railing, propped up and looked at the blue sea in the distance, with a slight smile on the corner of his mouth, and he also affirmed the calm and proficient trade of First Officer Green.

Following the order, several sailors immediately untied the ropes tied to the stone pillars, and quickly returned to the side of the ship to withdraw the plank, and the entire deck was already full of a large number of wooden barrels, and the weight of even the slender and flexible Devo merchant ship was faintly pressed to the limit of the waterline.

The waves were crashing back and forth above the waterline, which already showed that the risk of sailing on this Devoe merchant ship, which was not able to carry a large amount of cargo, was gradually increasing, and the faces of First Officer Green and those sailors were also a little dignified.

"Your Majesty, if we leave the port now, it will be a little dangerous."

First Officer Green had also heard the sailors' report, and his face was a little solemn, because they could also feel it standing on the boat, and the Devo Mall under their feet was faintly shaking as the waves crashed.

The surface of the sea, which has not passed the waterline, is no longer an assistant that can carry ships, and any wave will become a giant mouth that can overturn the entire ship and swallow it, even if the current weather conditions are not bad, but once they encounter small currents or waves, then their consequences are somewhat unimaginable.

"Take it easy, my first mate."

Levi's face was calm, he turned his head to look at the serious appearance of First Officer Green, and patted him on the shoulder with a smile, and comforted: "Everything has an almighty God, isn't it, believe me, there will be divine grace at this time." ”

With the opportunity to upgrade as a gift, this Devo Mall can turn into a real horror monster at any time. That is the most famous sailing merchant ship in the Spanish Empire, from the 16th century to the 18th century, even the appearance of steam ships still has a place in the Galen galleon!

It has a unicorn-like foremast, two main masts and a smaller stern sail mast, a standard length of 55 meters, a draft of up to 8 meters, a displacement of up to 2,000 tons, two gun decks and an additional two aft decks.

And just as they slowly sailed away from the port of the old Silver City, in the surrounding sea area where there were no other ships around, this huge galleon that could accommodate 175 sailors, had 56 short-barreled heavy guns, and could cope with most bad weather and complex battlefields, had quietly appeared in this sea area.

The howling sea breeze blew the ten sails on the four masts, and the whole galleon tore the sea alive, and under the shouts of the sailors, it began to sail calmly on the sea ahead.

This is Li Weixin's flagship, his strongest warship, and the largest merchant ship with the largest load!
