Chapter 191: I'm Just Keeping It for the Time Being(1st Update)

It will take some time for the kingdom's big move to officially begin, and now it's just a matter of ventilating the city halls of each city in advance, so that they can prepare their work and not drop the chain when the time comes.

So even though some proposals in Luo Yin's favor have been passed, he can't use them for the time being. Anyway, this matter can't be rushed, and now the top priority, Luo Yin feels that it is how to deal with the problem of that big ship.

It's not a matter that the Wind and Rain has been sitting there, Luo Yin thought about it, and came to Erin's side.

"Erin, how much cargo is on board the Storm?"

"Huh?"

Erin, who was in a daze, was startled, but when she heard Luo Yin mention the wind and rain, she frowned. That's her ship!

But now that she was under the roof, Erin could only answer obediently.

"Those fabrics, food, beer, etc., can be sold for about 20,000 Sirius coins......

20,000 wolf coins, only 200,000 joint coins, Luo Yin didn't care very much, what he cared about was the things in the warehouse at the bottom of the big ship.

"Where's the guns?"

「…… There were a total of 2,000 fiery guns, 8 guns, 20,000 lead projectiles, and 40 shells...... The price of a single fire spear is 150 wolf coins, the price of a single artillery is 50,000 wolf coins, the lead projectile is 100 wolf coins per 100 pieces, and the cannonball is 500 wolf coins each......

Listening to Erin's report, Luo Yin silently calculated in his heart, if it was converted into a joint coin-

The musket is worth 3 million, the artillery 4 million, the lead projectile 200,000, the shell 200,000. It's about 7.4 million in total, and if you add those fabrics or something, it's about 7.6 million.

This is less than Luo Yin imagined, he thought it could reach 10 million.

Wait, this seems like there's something important missing......

"Isn't there any gunpowder in the ship?"

Luo Yin asked suspiciously.

「……」

Erin's face suddenly turned bitter, and then she opened her mouth to explain helplessly.

"If there is gunpowder, with our firepower, we can still be chased by a few little pirates......

For the sake of safety, the gunpowder and guns were separated, and the gunpowder was on another ship.

The gunpowder is worth 300,000 Sirius Coins, which adds up to a total of 1 million Sirius Coins, which is 10 million United Coins.

Luo Yin suddenly said. Although the Wind and Rain is just an ordinary merchant ship, there are so many firearms on board, it is understandable that it cannot defeat the colonists, after all, there are few people, but it is unreasonable not to win against pirates.

If nothing else, just say that if you move this cannon out, it is estimated that it will also be able to scare off many pirates.

The reason why they didn't do it was because there was no gunpowder!

Luo Yin said sympathetically:

"You're unlucky then."

I'm also unlucky to meet you - Erin only thought about it in her heart and didn't dare to say it.

Luo Yin sat on the chair and fell into thought.

He had asked Mayor Burton about the trouble he would have if he wanted to dispose of the munitions.

In the United Kingdom of Stokato, a licence is required to engage in the arms business. Otherwise, it is an illegal operation, and it will be fined at least and jailed at worst.

And this certificate can't be done in the city hall, you have to go to the royal capital, and it's very troublesome.

If you don't have a license, it's smuggling.

In fact, there is not a lot of smuggling in the country, including arms smuggling. This thing can't be completely controlled. Even in some places, smuggling is so rampant that the city hall can't control it, or it has interests involved and doesn't want to take care of it.

Luo Yin has no spiritual cleanliness, and he does not reject smuggling, but when it comes to arms smuggling, there is a problem, that is, the sales are very slow.

For example, the police station or the military, this kind of bulk purchase, the sales speed is fast. And these departments do not accept smuggled arms.

In the case of smuggling, at most it is sold to some security companies and the like, but the sales volume is also limited. Unless it's a newly established company, it doesn't have any equipment in hand. Otherwise, people have a lot of guns in their hands, you will

There will be no way to sell muskets to them anymore.

Erin said that the quality of these guns is very average and belongs to the category of cheap guns. Since there is no advantage in quality, it is impossible for people to change clothes.

And it's not just muskets, he also has a few guns here, even if the muskets are sold, who do you sell the guns to?

And, of course, the most important point. These muskets, artillery or something, there is no matching gunpowder! Everyone else sells it as a package, and if you don't bring gunpowder, it's even harder to sell......

Therefore, if Luo Yin wants to deal with this batch of munitions, the best way is to retail it in the underground chamber of commerce and other places, but this is too slow, who knows when the two thousand guns will be sold. After all, the source of this batch of arms is not very legitimate, and if you don't hurry up, there may be trouble later.

Or he sells it to other smugglers at a low price, but this is a real low price, and it is estimated that it will be sold for two million at most, which is not a good deal.

Or keep it for himself, Luo Yin really has the idea of setting up a security company...... But to be honest, it's not that Luo Yin has a high vision, but he really can't look down on this level of arms.

After thinking about it, Luo Yin found that this batch of arms was valuable, but he didn't seem to be able to sell them for a while.

It's a bit of a chicken rib feeling.

Not really...... Let Lun En pull to sell in South Smon? Forget it, it's not appropriate. Nansmon is now full of warlords and colonists. It's okay for you to go to other businesses, as long as you pay the money. But if you're in the arms business, you're not careful...... Erin's fate is still here.

Erin looked at Luo Yin and suddenly frowned and fell into deep thought, combined with the situation of the arms that Luo Yin asked her just now, Erin's eyes rolled, and she said weakly:

"It's useless to ask for these weapons, so why don't you give them back to me...... I'll pay you some money for the hard work you paid for helping me get the boat here......

This is an arms that she can't afford to sneak up, and she will be very distressed if she loses it.

As long as she gets the ship back, she has many ways to sell the goods again, and she can make a fortune - if he can get out of here.

When Luo Yin heard this, he raised his eyebrows, and he felt that it seemed to be feasible.

Anyway, it's useless to keep this batch of arms in his own hands, and he doesn't want to sell them at a super low price, so it's better to return them to Erin and let Erin give her a hard money.

So, Luo Yin spoke:

"What are you talking about Miss Erin, this is what belongs to Miss Erin, I'm just helping to keep it for the time being, Miss Erin can take it at any time!"

「……」

This sounds familiar.

"Of course, I don't really care about the hard work or anything, but my crew may be a little concerned, so it's reasonable to give them some hard money, I wonder how much Miss Erin plans to give?"

Luo Yin said with a smile.

「…… 300,000 Heavenly Wolf Coins, what does Mr. Luo Yin think?"

Her batch of munitions, including gunpowder, can be sold for a total of 1 million Sirius coins, and the cost is 300,000 Sirius coins. In other words, she can earn 700,000 Sirius coins!

If Luo Yin is given 300,000, she can still earn 400,000, which is still very profitable.
