Chapter 3664 Get Rich Suddenly
The two sets of equipment brought are the closest to what Ozma described. However, since they are not exactly the same, I am not sure whether they are genuine.
Ozma picked up the equipment, looked at it for a while, nodded and said with a smile, "Yes, these are the two sets."
"Oh?" I asked curiously: "These two sets are just ordinary enchanted equipment. Since you and Kazan were the top military ministers of the Peruvian Empire at the time, you should at least have one set of magic equipment each, right? ?”
"You are overthinking." Ozma laughed at himself and said, "Magic equipment has always been worn only by members of the royal family. Even if we are the top generals, we can only wear ordinary enchanted equipment."
At the end, he sneered and said: "This is the supremacy of imperial power, but there is a saying that goes like this, if the king regards his ministers as his brothers and feet, then his ministers will regard him as his heart and soul; if the king regards his ministers as dogs and horses, then his ministers will regard him as a citizen of the country; If you treat your ministers like a piece of grass, then your ministers will treat you like a bandit. The monarch of the Peruvian Empire treated his subordinates like this. You can imagine how the ministers will give back to the empire. Hmm, presumably, this is the most important factor that led to the collapse of the country. .”
"Maybe," I said, "but these are no longer important. I have fulfilled my promise and it's time to go back."
"Why don't you stay for a glass of wine?" Ozma's tone was still sinister, but it could be clearly felt that this time, he was sincere.
"No," I waved my hand and refused, "I want to go back to the Zephyr Continent first to replace my family's shotguns with cannons in preparation for the upcoming war."
"Forget it," Ozma said, "After all, Zephyr Continent is your real home."
"Ha, you don't have to be so weird," I responded with a smile, "I will come back if necessary."
"I hope this won't happen one day," Ozma grinned.
Opening the portal again, I returned to Zephyr Continent and set off again after a day's rest.
After arriving at York City, without saying a word, I gathered my men and headed towards the next tomb.
A month passed by in a blink of an eye.
In this month, we robbed nearly twenty tombs, unearthed nearly a hundred pieces of magic equipment, nearly a thousand pieces of enchanted equipment, tons of enchanted ores, hundreds of tons of various precious ores, and nearly 1,000 pieces of fine gold and mithril. Five tons is quite a harvest.
I seized all the magic equipment. Except for the equipment for my family, the rest were given to Master Dewey.
As for the enchanted equipment, I selected some that I thought were good and gave them to Boss Ren and Lillea, who randomly assigned them to suitable subordinates. The remaining one-third was given to Master Dewey and one-third to Master Dewey. It was given to Simmons Locke, and one third was secretly sent to the two queens of Moonlight City, who decided who to give it to.
As for all kinds of ores, enchanted ores, and adamantine and mithril, they are all divided into 28 parts. Two parts will be given to Simmons Locke, and the eighth part will be handled by myself.
I am neither a blacksmith nor a blacksmith, so naturally I have no idea about forging ore, so I gave all these ores to Master Dewey for disposal.
I took out about a third of the remaining gold coins, silver coins, jewelry, and carvings and distributed them to the people who followed me.
This directly resulted in a group of extremely wealthy people in Hanoi.
The vast majority of this group of suddenly rich adventurers have chosen to give up their career as adventurers, or invest their money in business activities, or spend money to buy noble status, so as to take the opportunity to ascend to the powerful class. Some, Then choose to lie on the golden and silver mountains and enjoy yourself to your heart's content.
Business adventurers may fail in their investments, but their lives afterwards are pretty good. After all, each of them gets at least thousands of gold coins and more silver coins. An ordinary family can only spend about one gold coin a year. Under the price, even if they lose more than half of their property, they can still get a lot of nourishment.
Compared with this group of adventurers who chose to do business but failed, the adventurers who spent money to buy status appear to be wiser.
Although they may be transferred out of the capital because of their fiefdoms, the newly promoted nobles who go to other cities can still get a lot of nourishment and bring blessings to their families, because the title of nobles can be hereditary and replaceable. , but it can only be inherited by one person.
But so what?
As long as they can cross this threshold, their status will skyrocket. From then on, they will have the right to speak in the power class of York and Han City - although they are only the most junior power class, as long as the younger generations continue to make progress and continue to improve the family status If they improve, one day their family will also gain a pivotal position in the aristocratic class.
Of course, the above situation only happened in their imagination.
Everyone knows how difficult it is to obtain noble status in various countries in the Zephyr Continent.
It is not easy to spend a lot of money to buy the status of a small noble. It is not impossible to improve the status of the family, but it requires continuous big opportunities to make it possible in small steps. Move up.
If you want to quickly climb to a higher status, it is not impossible, but you need greater opportunities, such as marrying the monarch's favorite daughter, or a girl in the family being married by the most powerful prince as a concubine. .
Apart from this, there is only one possibility to save the monarch's life at the critical moment.
Compared with this group of adventurers who always maintain an enterprising spirit, the adventurers who indulge in enjoyment appear to be much more relaxed and happy. After all, they do not need to have any enterprising ideas or even make any plans for the future.
But relatively speaking, they are also the fastest among all people to fall into poverty.
Especially adventurers who indulge in debauchery, gambling and fun are more likely to return to the ranks of ordinary people in a very short period of time, and are even more likely to become paupers.
After all, spending huge sums of money is common in gambling houses.
Not to mention just a few thousand gold coins, even tens of thousands of gold coins, it is not impossible to squander them all in just a few days.
However, due to regulations in various countries, each gambling game has a maximum amount limit, which has reduced the occurrence of many family ruins.
However, although the upper limit of gambling amount is stipulated, the number of times that can be gambled is not limited. As a result, adventurers who are addicted to gambling will squander all their wealth in a very short period of time.
After all their property is squandered, it will be extremely difficult to find opportunities that can make them rich again.
After all, not every time, someone pays a lot of money to do something for them.
In particular, the strength of this group of adventurers is only above average. In the Zephyr Continent, there are an extremely large number of such adventurers.
Unlike these ordinary adventurers, Hathaway's family has a different way of using this wealth.
