Chapter 7247

Author: Lord Leaf
The highest cost in shipping operations was always fuel, with 100,000-ton cargo freighters burning through dozens of tons of fuel oil every day.

Naturally, refueling would also cost that much, and even with the assumption that it's a few hundred dollars per ton, refueling alone costs hundreds of thousands of dollars.

It was why many freighter operators loved refueling in Singapore, as cheaper fuel prices meant plenty of savings.

But if Hamed found oil, he didn't have to worry about finding bu

  • The Charismatic Charlie Wade   Chapter 7641

    Upon hearing Fleur's suggestion for them to leave in search of providence and natural treasures, the three elders naturally agreed to it without the slightest hesitation. Prolonged seclusion was a process of building momentum, but it also inevitably weakened over time. If one were to remain in seclusion until opening their pineal glands, time would pass in the blink of an eye amidst endless cultivation. However, being interrupted at the crucial moment made it extremely difficult to re-engage and regain that state of mind. And with Fleur having interrupted them before, going back to seclusion saw little progress. And they had grown increasingly impatient since. Fleur knew very well that if she were in their shoes, she would massacre a village to quell her frustration, after being interrupted just as she was about to open her pineal gland. Therefore, she decided to set the three elders loose, partly to help ease frustration, and partly to see if they might encounter providence.

    Moreover, the three high elders had much to complain about their progress on unsealing their pineal glands. After all, they had mostly stayed in seclusion for a century, and if they had just gritted their teeth and persevered for another ten years or so, they might have opened their pineal glands one after another. And once they did, they'd live over 200, if not more.However, Fleur kept interrupting. As their enlightenment progress kept being set back for decades, catching up would take just as long and that was another few decades wasted.Still, Barlin was quick-witted enough to keep his mouth shut and his mind clear.He knelt on one knee and bowed his head, answering, "No, Lady Griffin—we will never presume to demand rewards for servitude. But you just need to say the word, and we will carry it out to the letter. We only humbly request that you grant us permission to leave the island and search for Vera Lavor!"The other two high elders quickly caught on—their minds must hav

    Fleur was painfully aware that the Griffins' loyalty came with ulterior motives.It was her decision to keep them split into five different military governorates, like a feudal king would keep his five princes divided, governing five different principalities.But even if they were meant to be loyal to their father the king, they would still grow discontent with the king hoarding more power and wealth than the rest of them.That was why the five different military governorates might not be all that motivated to find Vera—from their point of view, they had no reason to care where Vera was, or if she was alive.Even if they were basically family to Fleur and owed everything they were to her, they knew full well that their comfortable lives were all thanks to the five governorates.Hence, even if Fleur died, they would still live like kings thanks to the governorates.In contrast, Fleur's being alive posed a threat because of how she ignored the consequences of her actions, and her w

    Having no ingredients but only the recipe would be all the more troublesome—would she even be able to gather everything she needs? And even if she did, did she have the cultivation to cook the Infinite Pill?Every single question that they faced seemed to trim down Fleur's chance of success on every other turn, not to mention that the Qing Eliminating Society still had a mysterious enemy on their hands—a ticking time bomb that could blow up at any moment.Considering all those issues, Fleur actually wasn't sure she could live another five hundred years.The thought of the mysterious enemy left Feluer fuming, and she promptly summoned Tarlon Griffin, her most trusted confidante."How is the investigation in Morocco going?" She asked. "Any clues on where the dead soldiers and armed cavalry guards went?"Tarlon shook his head, pursing his lips in embarrassment. "I'm afraid not, Lady Griffin. I've even sent additional personnel, but none of them found anything—it's like the entire g

    Charlie smiled. "Of course it's fine."With that, they each retired to their own cabins.-Meanwhile, on an island around 1900 miles away from Ushuaia.Fleur was sitting cross-legged in her own chambers, and before him were five gems of different sizes and shapes.She was using breathing techniques to absorb precious Reiki from each gem, until each gem was drained dry.The Griffins had gathered those gems from around the world, offering them to her as tribute.Over the past 300 years, she never stopped having the griffins search the world for mystic treasures and spirit stones.During the early years, they were gathering troves of ideal cultivation materials, helping her unseal her pineal gland and improving her cultivation—even forming her own private army of cultivators.But with the advent of modern technology, such treasures only became rarer. Nature's boons that already took millennia to grow before, were now not growing at all due to climate change and various modern dev

    After everyone moved onboard, Jon led Charlie's group on a tour around the ship to show them the amenities and to study the interior layout.It was a huge ship. Aside from the engine room and cargo hold at the bottom, there were over a dozen laboratories, a large mess hall, a library, a gym, and other shared facilities.Charlie's group then followed the captain to the crew quarters, which had over forty cabins that came in three types: single bed, double beds and four beds.Research staff were assigned double or single bed cabins, rooms, while all crew members except the captain and first mate stayed in four-bed cabins. The main mission of this Antarctic expedition was to transport supplies and researchers out of the research base, so the entire ship only had a crew of twenty—still less than thirty even with Charlie and his group of four.Both Charlie and Vera chose a single bed cabin, while Ruby and Penny, used to sharing, opted for a double bed cabin.Naturally, the cabins on

    “Okay.” Christian agreed and asked Merlin, “If she is in New York and asks me if I have any news about you, should I tell her the truth or lie to her first and wait for you to surprise her in person?”Merlin thought for a moment and said, “If she asks you, tell her that you have found some clues, but

    Elaine had never been a good person, and she was even less of a kind person.The fact that Elaine had subconsciously reminded this Oskian girl not to offend Chloe just now was already the peak of Elaine’s humanity over all these years. If Elaine’s humanity was a light bulb, that flash just now might

    Chloe, who was kneeling on the ground as she scrubbed the floor, cheered up immediately when she heard this.She knew very well that Elaine’s protection here came from two main sources. The first of which were these three women who were particularly capable in combat.The second was the special care g

    Meanwhile, on a farm in the southern suburbs of Bergen, many corpses lying in the house had long lost their breath.A sign was hung outside the gate of the farm with a sentence written in English: The real estate transaction here is in progress.Not many people would pass by this kind of place in itse
