Chapter 383 Assets of the Sea Eagle Chamber of Commerce
None of the masterminds of the Haiying Chamber of Commerce escaped, and they were all captured on the spot.
Taking this opportunity, Jia Zhengjin ordered Arbas to lead a raid. While the private army of the Sea Eagle Chamber of Commerce was still asleep, he arrested them all in their sleep. At the same time, he immediately posted an official document throughout the city to inform Hailong City who did not know the truth.
The citizens of the city discovered the reason why the Seahawk Chamber of Commerce was closed down, and announced the true identity of Brian as the biological son of Duke Fairman!
Although some city residents who had been favored by the Sea Eagle Chamber of Commerce still came out to protest, hoping to release Brian immediately. However, most of the city residents chose to be freeloaders because of the content of the announcement. A possible rebellion did not occur.
!
The Haiying Chamber of Commerce was sealed, and everything in the vault was transported to the City Lord's Mansion and piled up into several hills in front of Jia Zhengjin.
These hills are made of gold bricks, and each gold brick is equal to 5,000 gold coins! There are more than 600 gold bricks here in total, which is more than 3 million gold coins!
Everyone's eyes were wide open, including Jia Zhengjin himself. This is a huge amount of wealth, and it is definitely not a joke! With this money, he can purchase various resources in large quantities at the resource exchange to speed up the Holy Dragon City.
Defense construction and city expansion! You even have enough resources to upgrade skills such as weapons, tools, armors, guns, etc., so that the quality of the equipment you create can reach a very high level!
"Kien, these... so many gold bricks, how much would they cost in gold coins?" Tina nervously grabbed his hand beside her, stuttering a little as she spoke.
Palin's face was expressionless, with no expression at all.
Christina has no idea about money, so she doesn't care much about it.
"Lord Keen! After selling the Sea Eagle Chamber of Commerce's real estate, furniture, carriages, and various other assets, there are at least four to five million gold coins left." Albas reported.
"You should deal with those assets yourself, and then put them into Hailong City's treasury for construction purposes!" Jia Zhengjin said, "Also, the members of the Haiying Caravan Corps will be collected, those who can be collected will be detained, and those who cannot be collected will be detained.
, their equipment is very sophisticated, and they are just distributed to the guards in the city!"
"Lord Xie Jian!" Hearing this, Albas was immediately overjoyed. The city was already short of funds, and he was carrying out General Owen's order to raise funds. With this fund, the pressure would be greatly reduced!
The equipment of the Sea Eagle Chamber of Commerce's troops is better than that of their guard army! Being able to obtain this batch of equipment is of course the biggest reward for them!
"Lord Keen, what should we do with so many gold bricks?" Albas looked at the gold bricks piled up into several hills in front of him and asked worriedly, "We transported them from the Sea Eagle Chamber of Commerce and used all the carriages in the military camp.
, it was divided into several times before it was successful! If you want to transport it to Holy Dragon City, it will probably be even more difficult!"
"You don't have to worry about it! That's why I came here." Jia Zhengjin walked to the front of the Brick Hill with a smile and reached out to gently brush it.
In just an instant, all the gold bricks disappeared out of thin air!
"This, this... where have all the gold bricks gone?" Albas was stunned and looked around desperately.
Jia Zhengjin patted him on the shoulder to calm him down: "I have put them all away and they are not lost! You did a good job this time, this is your reward!"
Albas turned his head and saw a gold brick appearing in front of him. He couldn't help swallowing and looked at Jia Zhengjin in disbelief: "Master Keen, this, is this for me?
"
"That's right!" Jia Zhengjin nodded, "It belongs to you!"
Although this is just one of more than 600 gold bricks, it doesn’t seem like much. But in fact, one gold brick is equal to 50,000 gold coins!
Albas's salary is 2 gold coins per month, which is only 24 gold coins a year. It is quite good to earn 240 gold coins in a lifetime! Of course, this is because he is relatively upright personally and will not engage in some crooked ways and take advantage of himself.
They earn profits based on their authority and will not imitate some corrupt officials to do illegal and corrupt things.
So fifty thousand gold coins, to him, was a huge sum of money. When he took the heavy gold brick, he was completely stunned! He looked at Jia Zhengjin stupidly: "Master Keen...
This, this is too much! How can I spend it?"
Jia Zhengjin asked in his heart, are you stupid? There is still money that cannot be spent?
Then he patted him on the shoulder and said: "If you think you can't spend it, you can exchange it for gold coins. Just take some out of it and give it to your subordinates!"
"Yes!" Albas's eyes lit up when he heard this idea, "I understand, thank you Lord Keen!"
"Well!" Jia Zhengjin felt quite comfortable after getting such a large sum of money. "Nothing happens, just go and deal with the affairs of the Haiying Chamber of Commerce! If necessary, don't let anyone know about it. It doesn't matter if you embezzle a little secretly.
But it’s best not to move too much…”
"Lord Keen, I will never touch a copper coin from the sale of the assets of the Sea Eagle Chamber of Commerce!" Albas immediately replied seriously, "Those are the funds that belong to Hai Long City, and they must all be used to build the city!"
"I just said that, why are you so serious?" Jia Zhengjin smiled and patted him on the shoulder.
Albas grinned, and then asked: "Lord Keen, are you going to return those gold coins obtained from selling elves to the elves?"
"You don't have to worry about it, I have my own arrangements!" Jia Zhengjin said to himself, why should I give it to the elves? I can promise that after winning this war, I will try to get all the slaves of the elves to be released by all the countries in the mainland. This is already a big problem for the elves.
Very good! I will use this money to purchase resources and make my Holy Dragon City more magnificent. At worst, if there is any leftover by then, I will consider giving them a little compensation.
Albas didn't know what Jia Zhengjin was thinking, so he asked again: "Master Keen, what should Brian and his men do?"
"Have you put a ring of confinement on them all?" Jia Zhengjin asked.
"Everything is already on!"
"Very good!" Jia Zhengjin nodded and said, "Keep it locked up for now and deal with it after the battle with the Human Empire coalition forces is over!"
"Yes!" Albas immediately nodded and accepted the order.
"General!!" Just as the two were talking, another soldier suddenly ran over from outside. When he saw Jia Zhengjin, he immediately saluted respectfully, "Lord Keen!"
"Yeah!" Jia Zhengjin nodded slightly.
"What are you doing in such a hurry?" Albas asked with a frown.
The soldier hurriedly said loudly: "While we were dealing with the assets of the Seahawk Chamber of Commerce, we discovered a secret tunnel!"
