Chapter Thirty-Nine: Rich!

Of course, in the face of the captives of the party in the palace, coupled with Lin Chong's very strong intercession with Han Shizhong next to him, Tong Guan didn't do anything with Han Shizhong in the end, but just ordered Han Shizhong to be taken down, waiting for Lin Chong to ransom him.

At this time, Li Renai, Li Renzhong, and Li Renli's brother Wei Bao were chased after and sent someone to escort them, and he himself took Wu Song, as well as Yang Zhi and others who arrived later, to the place where Li Qianshun buried the treasure.

Because Wei Bao was Wu Song who surrendered at that time, these three people were naturally in the hands of the Liangshan army.

Lin Chong pondered whether he could hand over Li Renai to Tong Guan in exchange for Tong Guan to release Han Shizhong and the others;

On the one hand, he ordered Luan Tingyu, Tang Bin, Hao Siwen, Shi Jin, Xu Ning and others to search the palace and control the remaining thieves in the city.

I have to say that, just like the Japanese army in later generations, although the party members were fierce and cruel, when they were strong before, they also killed people and set fires, raped and plundered, and did all kinds of evil; But once defeated, when you are weak, you become extremely docile and respectful.

Now that their kingdom had been breached, and they had been beaten by the gunpowder bullets of the Liangshan army and the Repeating Divine Arm Bow, even their emperor had been wiped with a knife, and everything frightened these party members at once.

Perhaps at the beginning, they were still desperately resisting for survival, but when the Liangshan army and the Western army sent people to shout, saying that everyone could avoid death as long as they knelt on the ground and begged - those who had heads in their hands could take their heads to atone for their sins, and those who had no heads would have their thumbs cut off and be punished as slaves to atone for their sins.

And if you continue to resist, this is only a dead end, and the whole family will be killed!

After hearing the shouts, many of these originally fierce party members immediately laid down their weapons and knelt on the ground trembling, waiting for the order to cut off the thumbs of both hands as prisoners.

Some who choose to fight to the death will even be killed immediately by their comrades, and then exchange their heads for their two thumbs.

These people were so obedient and ruthless that even the Liangshan Army and the Western Army, who were guarding them, couldn't help but scold when they saw it.

"Hu Lu is Hu Lu, he will do anything to survive!"

"It's so ruthless, it's so ruthless to your own people, what can't these beasts do!"

The soldiers below didn't know what to say about Lin Chong, but at this moment, Lin Chong and the others had already come to Li Qianshun's treasure house.

Not long ago, Du Bai and Zhu Wu also raided the treasury of Goryeo and the emperor's inner treasury, and wrote to Lin Chong to tell him that he had obtained more than 28 million yuan in gold and silver.

But the numbers on the paper are numbers, and where can there be more than the shock of being there in person and seeing these mountains of white flowers and sparkling gold and silver jewels all over the room.

Not only Lin Chong, but also Tong Guan, Seed Master Dao and others, as soon as they entered this treasure house, they also felt dizzy, their faces were red and their ears were red, and the blood on the soles of their feet was gushing to their heads, and they even trembled all over, and their breathing was a little out of breath.

"My goodness, how much does this cost!" Wang Feiyu couldn't help but exclaim.

"Haha, get rich, get rich! So many gold jewels! Yang Zaixing couldn't help but scream.

Seeing that the two of them were so out of shape, Lin Chong quickly regained his inner peace.

Compared with the great cause of saving the world and reviving the prosperity of the Han and Tang dynasties in the late Northern Song Dynasty, the shock and excitement brought to him by this bit of gold, silver and jewelry is really nothing.

Although he was still excited in his heart, after all, who doesn't love money, not to mention Lin Chong's big career, which also needs a lot of money.

"Tell me, how much is here?"

Lin Chong asked in a calm tone.

"Here are the books, which total about five hundred and thirty-three million pounds, and all the gold ingots...... In addition, the treasury also had about 8,000,000,000 pieces of gold, silver, silk, and copper! ”

Li Renzhong immediately whispered when he heard this, and his attitude was indescribably respectful.

It's just that although his voice is small, when everyone present hears it, it is like a thunderclap ringing in their ears, there are 53 million guan here, and there are 8 million guan in the treasury outside, adding up to 61 million guan.

Even if it is 60 million guan, the two families can divide it equally and at least 30 million guan!

Not to mention that it can also be robbed, as the capital of Western Xia, a gathering place for all nobles and rich people, there can be fewer rich people in the city.

But whenever the army marches to fight and captures a city, all the money in the city belongs to the victor, to be honest, the Liangshan army and the western army did not rob the ordinary people, this is already a benevolent and righteous army.

Therefore, when everyone thought of this, they were not embarrassed at all, but were full of anticipation and excitement, and couldn't help but admire.

Tong Guan thought in his heart, this Western Xia is really rich, you must know that although the Great Song Dynasty is rich, the annual income is hundreds of millions, which seems to be much more than the 61 million in Western Xia.

But when the Great Song Dynasty came, the place was also large, and the population was much larger than that of Western Xia; Second, the cost of the Great Song Dynasty is also large.

A few years ago, the treasury and the private treasury of the official family still had a little money, but in recent years, the treasury of the Great Song Dynasty and the private treasury of the official family have long been empty and can run mice.

If it weren't for this, in order to support the Western Army's war of annihilation against the Western Xia this time, the imperial court would not have been forced to issue tens of millions of yuan in a row.

If you want to hurry up and take these seizure movements to Tokyo Bianliang, you can also alleviate the financial crisis of the imperial court a little, and make a great contribution in front of the officials, but it is a pity that more than 30 million yuan was distributed by the Liangshan army in vain!

But what Lin Chong thought was: Sure enough, the war is the fastest money!

Although Liang Shanjun is now walking on two legs. Through wars on one leg, such as the previous attack on Zhujiazhuang, Zengtou City, Gaotang Prefecture, and later the attack on Liao State and Goryeo, the Liangshan army was able to obtain a large number of captures every time.

The other leg is to set up a workshop, develop manufacturing, develop commerce, vigorously develop the trade industry, and make money by relying on various best-selling commodities such as private salt, systematic production of daily necessities, workshop production of Liangshan cooked food, wide silk and satin, woolen products, wine, etc.

But although the opening of a workshop and Daxing business is also very profitable, it can also drive the economy around Shuibo and even the entire Jingdong Hebei Road to benefit the people, but after all, it is hard money.

Unlike the war dividend, 30 million guan was harvested at once, plus half of the Xingqing Mansion could be robbed, plus the 200,000 soldiers and horses of Richard Brother were completely annihilated before, and a large number of horses, ordnance and baggage were captured, the harvest of the Liangshan army on this trip to Western Xia was at least 40 million guan and 50 million guan!

Is there anything more lucrative than that?

It is no wonder that in the original historical time and space, the Jurchen barbarians wiped out the entire Great Liao in a few years from a small tribe with only a few thousand warriors, and they were not satisfied, and they continued to invade the Song Dynasty in the south;

No wonder the Mongols, motivated by robbery all the way, went all the way to Europe; It is no wonder that the later generations of Europa barbarians invaded foreign countries and colonized and plundered completely tirelessly......

It turns out that this kind of thing is really addictive!

Just like Lin Chong, although he knows in his heart that only by developing industry and finally promoting China to embark on the road of industrialization is the king of industrial power.

Because robbery cannot last long, and it does not bring much benefit to ordinary people, but the industrial, industrialized system is a real thing, which can benefit the whole people, the whole country.

But Lin Chong, who was in a somewhat agitated mood now, couldn't help but think that this time he gave so many benefits to the Western Army (the captured Liangshan Army in other cities was not wanted), it was really a bit of a loss, and when he was free, would he find a place to make up for it.

For example, the Wa Kingdom next to Goryeo is a good target......
