Next, take advantage of this time when the ship is unloading. Viscount Surrey told Lawrence and another Viscount about the food reserves on the Green Island.

"In order to ensure the safety of food supply, we have considered hoarding a large amount of food, but after many discussions, we found that there was neither money nor enough storage space on the island to complete this work."

"More importantly, the harbour level on our island is relatively poor. In winter, there may be strong winds or floating ice. Once a ship carrying grain encounters these things, it may take several days to get to the shore, so that the shore will be There is food shortage."

"Those big boats that bring food to the island will be better, but those boats that distribute food from the big ports to the various territories are more difficult to travel."

"In my impression, many territories farther north have the experience of seeing the ship outside the port but unable to unload the cargo, and you can only go hungry. Even after a big cold wave hit five or six years ago, even ours The large settlements around the border have been hungry for a long time."

Obviously, for efficiency reasons. The food that is transported into the island from outside the island is often unloaded at the ports around the large gathering area, and then sent from these ports to various territories through some offshore vessels.

The biggest advantage of this method of delivery is that these materials can be distributed to everyone in need in the shortest time, which is the best from an efficiency point of view.

But the corresponding problem is that the safety problem in transportation is very obvious: these small offshore sailing boats resist, and Song Ying often encounters the situation that the goods cannot be delivered on time.

Not to mention land transportation, even if the cost is not considered, the scarce number of sleighs pulled by reindeer and the long transportation process are basically impossible to meet the needs of the islanders.

Even worse, these reindeer actually consume a lot of food in the process of transporting goods. And this level of consumption is almost impossible to accept for Green Island, where every grain of grain is very important.

"Here is the same as ours. Almost all transportation relies on sea transportation." The baron who came with the team nodded with feeling in his heart, and then looked at Baron Surrey and asked.

"You just said that in order to solve these food safety issues, you ordered a lot of oil and sugar from us. So can you tell me how you use these oil and sugar?"

Lawrence also looked at Baron Surrey with a suspicious look at this time, because he could not see any better place to replace the original grains with oil and sugar.

Yes, these two things are indeed much larger than cereals in terms of calories, but these things are just some food additives to put it bluntly. These things alone can't make people fill their stomachs, and other foods must be ingested if they want to be full.

"Because we found that if people eat more oil, water or sugar, then their demand for grains will be significantly reduced."

Viscount Surrey gave a simple conclusion that he had drawn after observation. "Compared with the bulky grains, both sugar and these vegetable oils are much smaller in volume and more convenient to store."

I have to say that Viscount Surrey’s statement is indeed very reasonable, because Lawrence knows that if a person consumes a lot of sugar and fat, their consumption of grains and the like will naturally be greatly reduced.

The principle here is very simple, because everyone consumes a fixed amount of calories every day, and the unit calories of sugar and fat are much higher than those of cereals.

The same is true for preservation. Preserving various foods on this cold and dry northern island is much simpler than the tropical area where Lawrence is located.

Compared with the original grains, let alone those sugars that can be stored for a long time in a dry, cool and dark environment, even the fats and oils shipped by these merchants through ships are the best preserved palm oil among vegetable oils.

Of course, the shelf life of palm oil is indeed shorter than that of grains with shells and sugar. However, it is not a problem to store it in the specially dug local low-temperature cellars that are protected from light for one or two years, and this is enough for the island.

That is why I thought of this, so so many people on the island will unanimously order a large amount of sugar and fat from the islands in the southeastern sea area of ​​the Star Sea represented by Lawrence.

And this kind of business is also a very good business for the various islands on the Star Sea. Although it is said that the shipments of each company are not too large now, after reading the analysis report of Lawrence, I think this market is promising. .

Unlike the trade in which the lords of the Stars and Seas usually sell various materials, although the direct sales users of these origins need to pay for the freight, the selling price is also significantly lower than the market price. But even so, the profits of each transaction will be higher than before.

Obviously, for most businesses, not having an intermediary to make the difference is indeed a better thing for both buyers and sellers, at least both parties can get more benefits.

"Oh, yes, we also brought a few chefs this time." Just when the cargo was almost finished loading and unloading, the baron from the sea of ​​stars pointed to a man who walked off the boat in a windbreaker and said.

"This chef was hired only after we spent a lot of money. He has mastered the skills of how to add fats and sugars to various diets--"

Obviously, these nobles from the sea of ​​stars attach great importance to this transaction. Therefore, they even hired professionals to help them sell their goods, and this approach has achieved immediate results.

"This is awesome!" Viscount Surrey gave a happy expression. "Not many people here in the past have seen these specialties from the tropics. Your help in hiring chefs who are good at this is really a great help for us."

When all the goods on the ship were removed, the local specialties that had been gathered at the port began to be delivered to the ship.

In addition to deer skins, local specialties include seal skins, otter skins, spices, oils and bones from fish in certain cold regions.

The last two things were purchased by Lawrence, because he found in previous experiments that this world has one thing in common with the previous world, that is, this fish oil that lives in the frigid zone contains a lot of nutrients. So he needs these things to make some medicines.

To be precise, Lawrence intends to use the deep-sea fish oil from these frigid regions to make some health products, and then sell them to the wealthy to make a fortune.

The reason why he has this idea is also very simple. UU Reading www.uukanshu.com used to keep a small profit when selling medicines on the island, so he now needs to make those medical institutions make a little more money.

The reason why the profit of medicines is not high is also very simple. It is because as the transcendent level rises, Lawrence has begun to be affected by the blood of Bai Ze in many places.

As a beast of the kind camp, Bai Ze's bloodline naturally caused the whole camp of the bloodline warlock Lawrence to shift towards the direction of kindness.

Probably because this bloodline of Lawrence was obtained through Jianmu, it would not be like some bloodline masters that under the subtle influence of the bloodline, he would not change his tendency in this respect unknowingly.

But a very bad fact is that Lawrence also learned from his bloodline that if he did something contrary to the bloodline of Bai Ze, his transcendent level would stagnate, or even regress significantly.

And driving up the prices of these life-saving drugs is obviously a thing that runs counter to Bai Ze's temperament.

Considering that this world is a world in which extraordinary powers belong to him, Lawrence naturally chose extraordinary powers from extraordinary powers and worldly money.
