Chapter 79 Windfall (More than [-] new additions to the collection)
Except for the infantry guards and sea guards guarding the two silver ships at the port, everyone else had gone home to rest.The sea guards on other ships have also entered the cabin and are not allowed to run around under the orders of the remaining officers.

There are no more idlers in the entire port.

Seeing the crowd approaching, the leader was Chen Xun, and the guards guarding the silver ship let them go directly.

"Which ship should we look at first?" Chen Xun asked.

Haiwei bought a ship in Baochang County before. Because he was in a hurry and couldn't buy a big ship, he had to buy three medium-sized ships. The last two ships were loaded with silver, one ship was loaded with cattle and horses, and Haiwei and personal guards were scattered on the three ships. guard.

We encountered some checkpoints along the way, and with the help of the cows and horses on the first ship as a cover, and some small money as travel expenses, it went smoothly and we returned to Chenjiazhuang without any danger.

"Let's look at the ship on the far left first. It's filled with silver ingots." Lu Hui pointed to a medium-sized sand ship on the far left.

Under the leadership of Lu Hui, everyone boarded the deck of the sand ship and then came to the cabin.

The cargo hold below the deck was already small, and it became even more crowded after everyone squeezed in. In the end, some officers had to stay on the deck of the ship.

"The boxes in this cabin are filled with silver." Lu Hui opened the lid of a wooden box, revealing a layer of official silver ingots in front of everyone.

Nothing sparkled, nothing dazzling.

The outer layer of the silver ingot has been somewhat oxidized, and its color is a bit gray. In the dim cabin, under the light of the oil lamp, it looks dark.

But this dark silver ingot automatically adds special effects in everyone's eyes.

Dazzling!
Large chunks of silver ingots are neatly placed on the partitions inside the box, vividly displaying his aristocratic metal temperament.

Bang!Bang!Bang!
Lu Hui opened several boxes in succession, all of which were silver ingots of the same specification.

Chen Xun's heart tightened suddenly, he didn't expect that so much money put together would be so powerful.

He was suddenly worried that the officers next to him would kill him here for the money. Then he would be worthless.

However, when I thought about it, the personal guards and sea guards inside and outside the ship safely transported the gold and silver back to Chenjiazhuang from a thousand miles away. If I didn't trust them, who else could I trust?

From now on, the people who went out to rob the money this time will be the people Chen Xun trusts most. They can remain loyal to him in the face of such huge wealth. Their loyalty is already evident.

"Just watch." After the initial shock, Chen Xun, who has been baptized by later film and television dramas, has a fairly acceptable ability.

After leaving the cabin, I stood on the deck chatting with Lu Hui. The other officers were still taking turns to get some insights before their enthusiasm had passed.

"This money cannot be placed in Chenjiazhuang." Chen Xun said.

"I just came back and heard that the officers and soldiers were coming again. It's really not suitable to put it here, but the money is too much. Where else can it be put here?" Lu Hui asked.

Along the way, Lu Hui was really on tenterhooks. He barely slept a wink. He was worried that his subordinates would take advantage of his wealth and sacrifice his "boss" to heaven.

Fortunately, all the family members were in Chenjiazhuang. Under mutual supervision, greed was finally defeated with difficulty.

But this kind of victory does not mean that greed disappears. Maybe you go home and have a good sleep, and you regret it when you wake up.

With so many people knowing about this money, it’s hard to keep the news.

Therefore, no matter where the money is hidden, it must be strictly guarded, and many trusted people must be sent.

Chenjiazhuang is about to face a war, and he cannot leave here. Chen Xun really can't think of anyone who can face this huge windfall for a long time and resist his greed without him.

If Chenjiazhuang is defeated, who can resist the greed of swallowing the money after knowing that Chenjiazhuang is defeated.This is a big problem.

I was worried when I was short of money, but now that I have this windfall, I still feel worried.

Fortunately, this is the trouble of happiness.Worry is sorrow, beauty is still very beautiful.

Turning around, I saw Gan Ping standing in the distance, staring at the officers, as if those officers would secretly put money in their pockets.

"Gan Ping, come here." Chen Xun greeted.

"Yes!" Gan Ping walked over stiffly.

It was obvious that his nerves were too tight.

"Where do you think it is better to store this money temporarily?" Chen Xun asked.

Gan Ping didn't expect that Chen Xun would ask this question when he called him over. He originally thought that he would be done with transporting the silver back to Chen Xun.

"Of course it's safest to store it in the south courtyard!" Gan Ping returned directly. He never got off the ship, and he didn't know the problems that Chenjiazhuang was about to face.

"Apart from the South Campus?" Chen Xun asked again.

Gan Ping raised his head slightly and thought for a while, considering where it would be more appropriate to store it. Finally, he replied with some tangle: "Lang Jun means that this money cannot be left in Chenjiazhuang? If this is the case, I don't think it is appropriate to save it anywhere. It is better to spend it all." .”

atmosphere! !
But it's still a good idea.

How can we spend these 50 taels in a short period of time?Now, unlike in later generations, all transactions require cash delivery. To transport the money to other places to spend it, you have to send people there, and you have to send people you trust, otherwise all the people with the money will definitely disappear.

Chenjiazhuang is about to face a life-or-death enemy. At this critical moment, the people he trusts are already nervous, and it is impossible to send people out to spend money on a large scale.

Then you can only spend it locally, and at least most of it must be spent locally.

Guangzhou will be a super first-tier city in later generations. Even Dongguan County, which now has a population of only tens of thousands, will be a super city with a population of nearly [-] million in later generations.

But now, this is where Song Ting exiled prisoners, and the level of development is very low. If you suddenly spend 50 taels of silver in Dongguan or the surrounding areas, the price will definitely increase exponentially.

"This is 50 yuan. You can't just spend it as long as you want." Lu Hui retorted.

"That's what I said. I don't know where else this money can be saved except Chenjiazhuang." Gan Ping said.

"Not necessarily, the flowers can still be spent." A brilliant idea suddenly popped into Chen Xun's mind.

This idea can not only quickly spend most of the money, but also prepare an irrefutable excuse for Chenjiazhuang to expand its territory on Guangnan East Road in the future, and may also make the money more valuable.

"How to spend it? Is there anything in Guangdong that is so valuable?" Lu Hui asked doubtfully.

"That is, if these gold and silver are exchanged for other items of the same value, it does not mean that nothing has been done." Gan Ping followed with doubts.

The main reason for spending this money is that it is not safe here in Chenjiazhuang. No matter where the money goes, someone has to be guarded, which consumes too much manpower and energy.

If the money is exchanged for other valuable items, which also need to be guarded by someone, it is better not to exchange them. Gold and silver are hard currencies and have no shelf life. Other valuable items are not comparable.
