“This amount of oil needs to be transferred from the city, and it probably won’t be delivered to the port until tomorrow. Can you afford to wait?” Lu Yunshen gave Yang Yanzhou a wink.
Lin Ziyan glanced at him, wondering why he said that.
The amount the captain requested should be sufficient at Yanzhou Shipyard.
The captain covered his face with his hands, turned to look at the people on the ship, and shook his head.
He should have expected this; how could such a rudimentary port in China possibly have so much heavy oil?
"Our seafood can't wait that long..." the captain muttered to himself.

"Sir, can you help us find a buyer?" The captain's face was as black as the bottom of a pot.
Lin Ziyan could see his dilemma. If they had heavy oil, they could sail the ship to Country A and sell it there instead of selling it at a low price.
