Chapter 383 Assets of the Sea Eagle Chamber of Commerce

None of the masterminds of the Haiying Chamber of Commerce escaped, and all of them were captured on the spot.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Jia Zhengjin ordered Arbas to lead a surprise attack. While the private army of the Haiying Chamber of Commerce was still asleep, they were all arrested in a dream. At the same time, official documents were posted all over the city immediately, informing the citizens of Sea Dragon City who did not know the truth why the Sea Eagle Chamber of Commerce was closed down, and announced the true identity of Brian as the biological son of Duke Fellman!

Although there are still some city residents who have been favored by the Sea Eagle Chamber of Commerce come out to protest, hoping to release Brian immediately. But most of the city residents chose to be melon eaters because of the content of the announcement. A rebellion that might have been fomented did not happen!

The Haiying Chamber of Commerce was seized, and everything in the treasury was transported to the City Lord's Mansion and piled up into several hills in front of Jia Zhengjin.

These hills are made of gold bricks, and each gold brick is equal to 5,000 gold coins! There are a total of more than 600 gold bricks here, which is more than 3 million in gold coins!

Everyone's eyes were straight, including Jia Zhengjin himself. This is quite a huge fortune, definitely not a joke! With this money, he can buy a large amount of various resources at the resource exchange to speed up the defense construction and city expansion of the Holy Dragon City! He even has enough resources to upgrade skills such as weapons, tools, armor, guns, etc., so that the quality of the equipment he makes can reach a very high level!

"Kean, this... so many gold bricks, how much would it be worth in gold coins?" Tina nervously grabbed his hand by her side, stuttering a little.

Palin's face was expressionless, and she couldn't see any expression.

Christina has no concept of money, so she doesn't care much about it.

"Lord Keen! After the sale of the property, furniture, carriage, and various assets of the Sea Eagle Chamber of Commerce, there are at least four or five million gold coins left." Arbas reported.

"Take care of those assets yourself, and then receive them into Hailong City's treasury for construction!" Jia Zhengjin said, "Also, the members of the Sea Eagle Caravan can be included, and those who can't be detained , Their equipment is very sophisticated, just in time for the guards in the city!"

"Master Xie Keen!" Upon hearing this, Albas was overjoyed. The city was already short of funds, and he was carrying out General Owen's order to raise funds everywhere. With this funding, the stress can be greatly reduced!

And the equipment of the Sea Eagle Chamber of Commerce's troops is even better than that of their guards! Being able to obtain this batch of equipment is of course the greatest reward for them!

"Master Keen, what should we do with so many gold bricks?" Arbas looked at the gold bricks piled up into several hills in front of him,

He asked worriedly, "We transported it from the Haiying Chamber of Commerce, used all the carriages in the barracks, and divided it into several times to succeed! If we want to transport it to Shenglong City, it may be even more difficult!"

"You don't have to worry about it! I'm here for this reason." Jia Zhengjin walked to the front of the golden brick hill with a smile, and stretched out his hand to brush it gently.

In just an instant, all the gold bricks disappeared out of thin air!

"W-Where did all the gold bricks go?" Arbas was dumbfounded, looking around desperately.

Jia Zhengjin patted him on the shoulder to calm him down: "I have put them all away and they are not lost! You did a good job this time, this is your reward!"

Arbas turned his head and saw a gold brick appearing in front of him. He couldn't help swallowing, and looked at Jia Zhengjin in disbelief: "Master Keen, this, this is for me?"

"That's right!" Jia Zhengjin nodded and said, "It's yours!"

Although this is just one of more than 600 gold bricks, it seems that there are not many. But in fact, one gold brick is equal to 50,000 gold coins!

Arbas's salary is 2 gold coins per month, but only 24 gold coins a year. It is quite good to earn 240 coins in a lifetime! Of course, this is because he is more upright personally, and he will not engage in crooked ways and use his power to earn benefits. Nor will I learn from some corrupt officials to do illegal corruption.

So 50,000 gold coins are a huge sum of money to him. When he took over the heavy gold brick, he was completely dumbfounded! He looked at Jia Zhengjin stupidly: "Master Keen... This, this is too much! How can I spend it?"

Jia Zhengjin said, are you stupid? Money still can't be spent?

Immediately patted him on the shoulder and said: "If you think you can't spend it, you can exchange it for gold coins. Just take some out of it and give it to your subordinates!"

"That's right!" Arbas's eyes lit up when he heard the idea, "I see, thank you Lord Keen!"

"Yeah!" Jia Zhengjin was quite relieved after getting such a large sum of money, "It's nothing, you can deal with the affairs of the Haiying Chamber of Commerce! If you need it, don't let others know about it. It's okay to embezzle a little bit secretly. But it's best not to move too much..."

"Lord Keen, I will never move a single copper coin for the proceeds from the sale of the Sea Eagle Chamber of Commerce's assets!" Arbas immediately replied seriously, "Those are funds belonging to Sea Dragon City, and all of them must be used to build the city!"

"I just said that, why are you so serious?" Jia Zhengjin patted him on the shoulder with a smile.

Arbas grinned, and then asked, "Master Keen, are you going to return the gold coins you got from selling the elves to the elves?"

"You don't have to worry about it, I have my own arrangements!" Jia Zhengjin said in his heart, why give it to the elves? After I can promise victory in this war, I will strive to let the countries on the mainland release all elf slaves. This is already very good for the elves! I want to use this money to buy resources and make my Holy Dragon City even more magnificent. The big deal is that if there are any left over by then, I'm considering giving them a little bit of compensation.

Arbas didn't know what Jia Zhengjin was thinking, so he asked again: "Master Keen, what should Brian and his men do?"

"Did you put the ring of imprisonment on them?" Jia Zhengjin asked.

"It's all put on!"

"Very good!" Jia Zhengjin nodded and said, "Close it first, and deal with it after the battle with the Allied Forces of the Human Empire!"

"Yes!" Arbas nodded immediately.

"General!!" Just as the two were talking, another soldier suddenly ran over from outside. When he saw Jia Zhengjin, he immediately saluted respectfully, "Lord Keen!"

"En!" Jia Zhengjin nodded slightly.

"What are you doing in a hurry?" Arbas asked with a frown.

The soldier hurriedly said loudly: "When we were dealing with the assets of the Haiying Chamber of Commerce, we discovered a secret tunnel!"
