Chapter 926 The First Side Quest

Under the leadership of Elias David Sassoon, the concubine and the other four people later found a secret door leading to the basement in a hidden part of the main building of the manor.

After entering, I saw many large and small boxes in a basement with an area of ​​​​[-] to [-] square meters.

At this time, the imperial concubine also fulfilled her promise. She kicked the duck fillet seller's knee, made him kneel on the ground, and cut off the guy's head with a knife.

Because in a flash, she opened a small box.

Under the illumination of the candlestick in their hands, they could immediately see what was inside, which were bundles of pound notes.

Although the denominations were not large, there were either bundles of ten-dollar pounds or bundles of five-dollar pounds. There were no hundred-dollar bills at all.

But you must know that the sun never sets on the Empire, and the gold standard is still implemented; one pound can be exchanged for 7.32238 grams of pure gold.

Therefore, despite the small amount of money in this box, the total amount is only more than 2 pounds.

But if converted into Daqing General Silver, it would be worth at least 3 taels of silver.

In addition to these pound banknotes, there are other banknotes in other boxes, as well as various gold coins, silver coins, ingots of gold and silver, exquisite jewelry, etc.

The overall amount was so large that they simply couldn't take it all away.

After all, among the four, only Lang Qing and Yun Qing each carry a baggage with a capacity of 0.5 cubic meters; the amount that can be taken away is limited by just relying on human power to carry it.

And these should be just the tip of the iceberg among the vast wealth of the entire Sassoon family.

It can be seen from this that these duck fillet dealers have obtained an astonishing wealth in this land; the grandson of Elias David Sassoon did not die unjustly at all, and even a little too cheaply.

In desperation, they could only pick up the most valuable bag.

If you take away all the banknotes, jewelry, and gold, you will take away some of the silver. There is still a lot of silver left, so you can only give it up with regret.

Or maybe I'll get another chance in the future.

But even so, they will get at least one million taels of silver from this one vote.

Finally, at about two o'clock in the morning, four people left the words "Xuange Camp" in blood on the wall of the basement and secretly came out of the Sassoon family manor with large and small bags.

The moment they walked out of the manor, a very unexpected situation happened.

The cold mechanical sound of the system suddenly sounded in the heads of the four of them. At such a time, their side mission was triggered:
"Congratulations to the four members of the Xuange Camp team including Guifei, Lang Qing, Xiao Bailian, and Yun Qing, your side mission this time has been officially triggered.

Please note that specific requirements apply.

Successfully form a privateer fleet. The size and tonnage of the fleet are not limited, but it must be completed before 61 o'clock in the evening on April 4, 1.

Moreover, the total tonnage of the warships sunk or captured by the two countries must not be less than 3000 tons.

If the above requirements are not completed, then it is not completed, and the system will not impose any penalties.

But a warm reminder, the degree of completion of this branch mission will have a huge impact on some subsequent important missions of Xuange Camp. "

After listening to the above side tasks released by the system, the four of them felt like they were in pain for a while.

Mainly because in a short period of time, two things came to their minds:
First, there are still almost seven months until April 4 next year. Maybe this is also the overall duration of this mission.

This period of just over half a year seems not short at first glance.

But if you want to build a privateer fleet capable of destroying 3000 tons of Yinfa warships under the current situation of almost nothing, the time is not too short.

Such a small amount of time is simply a rush, okay?

Second, what the hell!In the missions released by the system in the past, when has this grandson ever been so easy to talk to?
There is no punishment yet?In the past, it was easy to kill five people at random if he couldn't complete the system task. He also declared the mission failed at every turn and wiped everyone out. These were the familiar faces of this guy.

Therefore, it was rare for the system to be so generous, which made them even more nervous.Knowing the completion status of side tasks can only be better than what the system requires.

Fortunately, they had some preliminary plans in the past. The next step was to seize the time and promote the development of these plans without any delay.

With this in mind, the four of them immediately took action separately after returning...

******
At the same time, the four-person team in Magic City finally triggered their side mission.

Hu Biao, who was in Daqing Xiaoling Mausoleum, also heard a voice in his ears; although it did not come from the system, it was still quite good news.

The gray-headed old snake came running in a hurry.

The first thing he said was: "Old, Old Hu, we dug up a rock wall, we should have dug to the right place."

After hearing this sentence, Hu Biao, who was currently holding an engineering shovel and wrestling with a stone stuck in the soil, immediately became energetic.

After throwing away the engineer shovel, he hurriedly followed the old snake to another location to check the situation.

After drilling into the passage that required bending down to enter, I saw two large stones stacked together, with ancient clay that should have been mixed with glutinous rice slurry used as a binder in the middle.

All this means that we have really hit the mark.

Without much hesitation, AT followed Hu Biao's signal, waving the dragon-slaying knife in a small area and started working on the stone; not long after, he took out a hole large enough to enter.

But even so, no one was in a hurry to go in.

joke!Don’t these otakus and otakus watch enough novels and movies on various related themes?

I waited for another half an hour until enough fresh air entered the underground palace. Even throwing a torch in did not extinguish it, which meant that the queen would not be suffocated inside.

Everyone filed into the underground palace with inexplicable expectations and excitement.

In the following time, they came to a space with an area of ​​two to three hundred square meters.

But in such a large space, they didn't see any coffins at all, and there were no burial objects at all; only a pair of boots and two jars on a stone platform.

And I saw many murals on the surrounding walls.

It seems that just like the legend, Shunzhi was not buried at all; just a pair of boots he wore during his lifetime, as well as the ashes of Concubine Dong E and Empress Xiaokangzhang Tong Jia.

But this is not important. Hu Biao and the others did not come in for archeology.

But they wanted to see if the environment here was as convenient for hiding things as they expected.

The result of some inspection is that the environment here is quite dry, there are no snakes, insects, rats, ants, etc., and it is simply a perfect treasure hiding place.

After confirming this, everyone became energetic.

After going out, in addition to blocking the entrance of the entrance and exit passage and camouflaging it, the other previously dug holes were completely filled in to restore them to their original appearance as much as possible.

After doing all this, it was already four o'clock in the morning.

Without any delay, everyone set off overnight and rushed towards the Old Summer Palace in the capital.

Next, they need to race against time, while doing defensive work, while using space props to transfer the treasures inside.

As they were leaving, suddenly, after a thunder, a heavy rain poured down.

The traces of their activities were perfectly washed away...
