Chapter 144(1/2)
Ning Chen really made a fortune after this battle.
Various medicinal materials that are in short supply among the human race are transported to the city from warehouse to warehouse.
The gold and silver treasures are countless.
This time can be regarded as a ‘personal expedition’, so the etiquette and regulations must be in place.
The Kingdom of Ten Thousand Demons was enlightened by the great Confucian scholars, and it also values benevolence, justice, propriety, wisdom and trust.
Especially the demon clan after their transformation, I feel that the difference between them and wild beasts lies in their etiquette.
Therefore, no matter how busy they are, these kings of the Ten Thousand Monster Kingdom will not relax at all about the etiquette that should be observed.
This gave Ning Chen a lot of opportunities for Sogou to make a fortune.
Ning Chen even felt that the great scholar who enlightened the demon clan at that time insisted on making these demon clan behave politely, which may not be entirely out of good intentions.
Those great scholars back then may have thought that these monsters were rebellious.
Sooner or later they will rebel against the human race.
And focusing on teaching them these etiquette may have only one purpose.
That is to let them expose the location of their royal tent when fighting against the human race.
It was convenient for the human race to behead their king.
As for plundering their ritual gold and silver treasures, Ning Chen felt that those great scholars would not be as vulgar as him.
Ning Chen made such a guess, and it was really not a malicious attempt to speculate on Confucianism.
You must know that Confucianism is not a matter of a day or two.
Those great Confucians back then were really not necessarily brighter than the great Confucians today.
At that time, the situation was more complicated and the methods used were more dirty, which is completely understandable.
After the final count, Guo Xin reported the numbers to Ning Chen. Ning Chen discovered that he was no longer as rich as a country.
This is a truly astronomical figure. If converted into silver, it would be worth tens of millions of dollars.
Ning Chen had already asked people sent by Wu Ang to take away some of the medicinal herbs and materials.
The shopping town still needs to continue to operate.
Only Shang Town can really digest such a large amount of materials.
Baijiacheng can actually function as a commercial town, but Ning Chen doesn't want Baijiacheng to become an open commercial town.
Ning Chen is not opposed to opening up, but it depends on when.
In the current dangerous situation, complete opening up means taking a lot of unnecessary risks.
Ning Chen doesn't want to live in danger every day.
Therefore, as a wholesale source, Baijiacheng only supplies goods to commercial towns, which Ning Chen thinks is acceptable.
The supplies were handed over to Wu Ang, and as for the gold and silver treasures, Ning Chen gave them to Sun Banban.
Let Sun Banban take it back to Wu Zhao, and then the court will melt all these gold and silver artifacts, recast them into official silver, and put them on the market.
This is Sun Banban's other important purpose this time, besides spreading the imperial edict and helping Ning Chen.
Not all of the money transported in this batch was offset by taxes from the Wu Dynasty.
Because Wu Zhao pulled a detailed list for Ning Chen.
A fourth-grade Ouchi master, fifty thousand taels.
Twenty is one million taels.
Sun Banban is considered a third-grade master, so he has one hundred thousand taels.
Then there are two military towns around Baijia City, and the military expenditure for one military town is 500,000 taels.
The military expenditure for the two military towns is one million taels.
In addition to the various fire costs, all added up, after Wu Zhao calculated it for Ning Chen, the total was three million taels.
Wu Zhao wanted to take these three million taels for free, and the rest would be offset by future taxes from the Wu Dynasty.
Regarding this account, Ning Chen still has to admit it.
If Sun Banban hadn't come with his godsons to support him this time, Baijiacheng's losses would have been much greater than they are now.
Moreover, Ning Chen did get some of the military expenses for the two military towns.
For Ning Chen, who now has a lot of money, this is considered a small amount of money.
You must know that the total amount of gold and silver plundered from the twenty-four royal accounts exceeds five million taels.
It’s only three million taels, just like a drizzle.
In addition to taking away these gold and silverware, Sun Banban also took away the entire detailed process of this battle, as well as the important information that the demon clan appeared again.
The demon clan has appeared again. This news is far more important than Ning Chen's elimination of the twenty-four kings of the Ten Thousand Demon Kingdom.
But now this news is still blocked.
Not many people know, and only those who should know know.
After Sun Banban and Wu Ang all left, it also meant that Ning Chen's inventory was over.
After completing the inventory, the next work is Guo Xin's business.
The aftermath of the war, the burial of fallen soldiers and compensation for their families, and the repair of the damaged parts of Baijia City.
Rechecking and sorting out the yellow books after the war...
Ning Chen definitely doesn't have the energy to handle this series of tedious and complicated things.
Just leave it all to Guo Xin.
At this moment, Ning Chen was in his own house, practicing for Fang Xiong, and taking a look at Mu Die, a greedy and gluttonous girl.
"I have worked hard to take care of General Fang these past few months. I don't have anything to give to General Fang. I will just give him two pills that I accidentally obtained."
Ning Chen said as he took out the two pills he exchanged for reputation points.
Fang Xiong has always been indifferent to these foreign objects.
But when Ning Chen said the name of the elixir, Fang Xiong's eyes were fixed on the elixir in Ning Chen's hand.
"Yun Shen Dan!"
Mu Die looked at the elixir in Ning Chen's hand and cried out.
Ning Chen nodded and said, "Yes, these are two Shen Yun Dan that I got by chance."
Fang Xiong, who originally had no interest in foreign objects, found out that these pills were Yun Shen Dan and said, "These two pills are too precious. You should keep them for yourself."
Ning Chen gave the elixir directly to Fang Xiong and said, "General Fang, I am still far away from the third level.
Left in my hands, these two pills will only gather dust.
But if you give it to the general, you might be able to help him break through to the second level as soon as possible.
If the general can break into the second rank, he will definitely be able to play a greater role."
Fang Xiong looked down at the elixir in his hand, nodded and said: "With these two Shen Yun elixirs, my probability of entering the second level can indeed be increased by 10%."
Although it is only a mere 10%, this is 10% of the third-grade to second-grade.
After the third level, it will be even more difficult to reach any higher level.
Don't look at the possibility of just 10% more, but you must know that for this 10% possibility, many third-level people are willing to fight with their lives and fight with their lives.
Especially for a martial artist, if the third level hits the second level, it will lead to retreat.
Once the impact fails, it will directly fall to the third level.
There may not be a second chance in this life.
Therefore, every 10% increase in success rate is very precious.
Mu Die stared at the Yun Shen Dan in Fang Xiong's hand for a long time, then suddenly reached out to grab it.
However, Fang Xiong directly tightened his grip and put it away.
After failing to catch him, Mu Die said dissatisfied: "Why are you so stingy? I'm not trying to steal your things.
I'm just a little curious. I just took a closer look at the Yun Shen Dan in your hand.
It doesn't seem to have any elixir scent at all, I just find it very strange."
After hearing Mu Die's words, Fang Xiong also recalled that the Yun Shen Dan just seemed to have no elixir fragrance at all.
After Mu Die finished speaking, he looked at Ning Chen and said, "Is it possible that the Divine Accumulation Pill has been in use for too long and has lost its medicinal properties?"
Too long?
How could it be too long? Ning Chen just redeemed this yesterday.
As for why there is no elixir scent, Mu Die must have asked the wrong person.
