In the evening, under the dim candlelight, the two of them had dinner in Lilu's small nest.

"Give me a bowl of Alden soup, it's very comfortable to drink this in winter." Lilu brought Fang Xian a bowl of green pea soup.

"This... can you drink?" Most people should have some resistance to green viscous substances.

"Forget it if you don't drink it."

“…”

The stewed beef, onion herring, meat sauce sandwich, smoked eel, broccoli sausage, it’s hard to imagine how Lilu completed it in such a short time.

Fang Xian came from East Asia to Beihai all the way, and he had tasted all the delicacies from all over the world, from sashimi in Japan to Indonesian chicken soup, from Indian curry to Iranian barbecue, the food in each place contained a local culture and tradition, which further demonstrated the character of a nation.

Japan is more nutritious and cruel.

Indonesia doesn't like to make a fuss about its diet, but just adds simple ingredients to taste, and has stopped moving forward for many years.

India is the same, curry is the king, and it is difficult to reform without any modification.

...

However, the food made by Lilu has a unique taste, perhaps the Dutch taste, or perhaps it is just the taste of Lilu, which has a strong mood and life meaning.

This made Fang Xian, who is in Amsterdam, feel like he was a different world. In this city with the most open and chaotic relationship between the two sexes, three sexes and even one sexes, there is such a room, which has such a taste.

These dishes are not very delicious, but they are like a ray of candlelight in the evening room, bringing a unique warmth and artistic conception.

Only then did Fang Xian understand why he felt this way...

Because several ladies don’t know how to cook, they have been eating the taste of the food they are busy lately.

Thinking of this, Fang Xian couldn't help but laugh at himself.

"I'm used to it..."

"What are you talking about?" Lilu asked while gnawing on the sausage.

"It's okay, I discovered something." Fang Xian picked up the bowl and drank the last sip of soup. "Technology is really not important when cooking at home."

"Own home..." Lilu lowered her head and savored the meaning of Fang's gossip.

"No, that's not what it means, don't be like this. Don't be shy..." Fang Xian quickly stood up embarrassedly, cleaned up the dishes, and opened up the topic. "Is it tiring to live alone?"

"Living alone..." Lilu shyly.

Fang Xian couldn't help scratching his head and accidentally said teasing words again.

It's all my fault, I was a bit too far in Indonesia at that time.

After dinner, the two of them sat on the windowsill holding a glass of red wine, looking at the night view of Amsterdam.

"This city is very chaotic?" Fang Xian asked.

"A messy place is naturally messy; a good place is naturally good." Lilu replied with a smile, without any embarrassment, "What? Do you want to go to the red light area?"

Fang Xian squirted out a sip of wine: "Forget it. Those three people in the family will kill me. I only have so much water, and I don't have enough land to fill my own fields."

"Haha..." Lilu covered her mouth and smiled as she was embarrassed. At least this city made her personality open.

Fang Xian felt that he should have left long ago, but he didn't know why. He always wanted to sit here for a while and enjoy this moment of tranquility.

Fang Xian was a little confused, put down his wine glass and looked at his hands: "Sometimes I don't know whether it's a dream or a waking up, whether it's a desire for the powerful or a chasing life."

"Of course." Yu Yan urged again, "Try this wine quickly, the taste of the second steamed bun we made together!"

"Oh my God..."

In this way, Fang Xian was filled with another meal, a drink, and then poured happily.

The next day, the Fang family navy began to invest hugely in Amsterdam.

In the entire North Sea, as long as both commercial and military values ​​are increased, almost any port can create battleships and terrible re-canceled continuous artillery. The cost of a warship is only a few hundred thousand, and continuous artillery is the biggest source of gold. If an extreme number of artillery is armed, the cost of a warship can even exceed tens of millions.

Choosing which port to invest in is undoubtedly an important matter. Fang Xian’s original plan was to invest in Denmark, Norway and other places where birds do not lay eggs.

But after thinking about it, the relationship with the Netherlands is now very close. In the future, they will open Africa and the Indian Ocean to them for business, so they will definitely be enough to eat, and there will be no conflicts in interest.

Investing in the Netherlands can further establish good relations with allies. One day when war with Great Britain is going to be considered a tough bone at the enemy's doorstep.

After a month of large-scale investment, Amsterdam accurately reached its peak in even numbers, and the rest to do is... spend money.

Battleships, the most comprehensive battleship in the game. They occupied several "bests" at the same time.

First, the price is the highest, with 276,000 gold coins, which is second-most costly, and more than twice that of a large Spanish sailboat.

2. The number of cabins is the largest, and the number of 11 configurable cabins is the same as that of other heaviest warships.

3. There are many masts, and Yang Fan can be added to the masts in the front, middle and back. It is the type of ship that can control the most sails in the game. In other words, it is the type of ship with the strongest maneuver. Of course, except for the ironclad ship that is fully loaded with kiln sailors bravely advance against the wind.

4. The maximum limit of sailors can be configured is more. Although it is less than that of ironclad ships, it is enough to crush other sailboats.

5. The number of turrets. Battleships can be equipped with four artillery tanks. Including the bow guns, each battleship can have up to 108 artillery batteries. For ordinary fleets, it would be good if the total number of turrets can exceed this one.

In summary, high maneuverability + high durability + high sailor number + extreme turret arming is the ultimate battleship. Under the abnormal firepower of 540 consecutive cannons in the entire fleet, even ironclad ships are unlikely to survive two rounds of volleys. The huge number of turrets, like ironclad ships, uses a kind of barbaric power, and uses quantity to make combat power reach an unprecedented level. If ironclad ships are human-powered motor engines, battleships are tracking missiles with huge firepower coverage, and they accumulate hit rate with huge numbers.

Buying a boat to modify and replace new cannons, etc. took a lot of time. It is necessary to fill the cannon warehouse and a large number of sailors need to be replenished. There is no hope for the Dutch gunman's idle art. The sailors all came to Hamburg specifically. The Germans' mechanical skills and grasping mechanical skills are famous. It is obvious that these honest guys can control the cannons and are relieved to be more at ease than the kiln sailors.

It took nearly three months for investment, adjustment and reorganization of sailors. The first pure gun fleet of the Fang family navy finally took shape. Of course, this also cost Fang Xian's reserve of more than 10 million gold coins, but for him, money was just a number.

All this went on without a sound, everything was ready, and it was time for Fang Xian to leave Amsterdam for the time being. Next time, he might be to arm the next heavy gun fleet.

Before leaving, Fang Xian returned a gift to Lilu and invited her and Camille to the hotel for a while.

This time, the three ladies cook together to let the Dutch see what real food is.

Lilu didn't look very embarrassed, but Camille was a little bit. The blonde guy never expected that he was on the invitation list.

What surprised him even more was that after several months of inquiry, he realized how stupid it was to compete with Fang Xian when he first met. Fang Xian's name was already on the royal family's list of distinguished guests. After pacifying East and Southeast Asia, he became the overlord of the Indian Ocean. The routes of the Dutch fleet have also been expanded there. All this proves that Fang Xian is a big shot with amazing achievements.

Camille could not have imagined that such a person would look so ordinary. When we meet again, we have no aura. If this oriental man wants to pursue Lilu... I'm afraid he can't even be a little bastard.

During this dinner, everyone was talking and laughing, and no more discussed any troublesome issues. They were all about family matters, sharing their lifestyles, etc.

For some reason, Camille drank a lot. Fang Xian just casually advised him to drink a few drinks. The young man obviously underestimated the alcohol purity of the Western-style "Erwo Pot" made by Wang Yuyan.

In the end, Fang Xian had to help drag Camille and send him back with Lilu.

It's night again. But this time the situation is completely different from the mood.

"This guy is good." Fang Xian smiled with Camill on his back, "I just like honest guys who drink."

Lilu smiled slightly: "Of course, Camille has been by my side to protect me from as long as I can remember."

"You are childhood sweethearts." Fang said casually, "Aren't you married?"

Lilu didn't say anything, just lowered her head.

"Lilu, I'm a person who has experienced it, I'll give you a message." Fang Xian didn't know what the girl thought, and there were times when she was infatuated, and there were days when she returned to life. "Lilu. Some places do not belong to you, and some things should not be done. As a girl, you should enjoy life and enjoy the love of others for you."

Fang Xian put Kapier at his doorstep and clapped his hands: "I'll help you get here. Amsterdam is your home, not my home; Camille is your countryman, not me."

"Well... you don't have to say so much." Lilu smiled bitterly, "I'm very happy that you invited me over today, and I understand. Your world is completely different from mine. Maybe we will have a moment of attraction between each other, but that's just... just..."

"Just what?"

"Be self-indulgent!!!" Lilu stuck out her tongue at Fang Xian, then pushed him, "Go back and accompany your wife, otherwise they will hold a grudge against me again!"

"Okay, goodbye."

"I'm really goodbye this time. Remember to find me next time I come to Amsterdam!"

"must!"

...

20 days later, in East Africa, South of Sofara.

The new First Fleet of the Fang family Navy met again unexpectedly.

The lookouts of the Espinoza fleet did not recognize the flag of the Fang family navy as soon as possible, but only reported to the captain that there was a fleet in the south.

"Southern?" Espinoza frowned, "that is, it comes from Europe? Who will come at this time?"

The lookout hand reached: "The distance is too far and I can't see the flag clearly. I can only roughly confirm that it is a heavy warship..."

"Heavy warship? Are large three-pole sailboats in the North Sea?" Espinoza asked anxiously. Could it be that the war in the Mediterranean was going on? Why didn't he have any news?

"No... Admiral, according to my experience, although they are still far away and look small, those boats are definitely larger than the North Sea three-pole sailboat..."

"Is it a large Spanish sailboat? Oh my God..." Espinoza panicked, "Is it the British... No, the British would not leave the North Sea casually... It must be the Spanish, the despicable Barudis, fighting in the Mediterranean, but our navy came to Africa to be arrogant..."

"No... Admiral, this time the ship should be bigger than the large Spanish sailing ship.... God blessed me, I have never seen so many sails..."

"How is that possible?" Espinoza said angrily, "Did you not eat in the morning or have you drunk too much at night? Spanish sailing is the limit, the limit of this era."

"The Admiral...they sailed very fast, and I can see their flags clearly now. It's...the Fang family..."

"Fang Family?" Espinoza said with a fist, "Damn, I understand, this bastard is not buying and selling goods at all, but buying a new ship..."

"Admiral, they showed the flag of... to start a war, they have declared war."

"Just!" Espinoza was furious, "Silly Orientals thought that buying a few advanced warships in Europe would make a war? Stupid, pass me the order, and let all the staff prepare for combat, so that they know what high-quality races and high-quality artillery fire is."

The First Fleet of Espinoza spread out horizontally, facing the enemy sideways, ready to fire at any time.
