Kyle read from the account book while Verin sat on the chair and listened. More than an hour passed in this way.

More than half of the items were local specialties. Weilin didn't know the names, but that didn't stop him from knowing the value of these items.

After statistics, the final result was that the wealth plundered from Huoye City, excluding books and other immeasurable items, was worth 1.5 billion gold coins in total, which almost equaled the wealth accumulated by the nobles and merchants in Huoye City over the past century. All the wealth is in hand.

As for the constant wailing of the nobles and merchants in the city, what does it have to do with him.

Seeing so much money, Weilin couldn't help feeling that war was the best time to make a fortune, but it was only because Huoye City was close to the sea and relied on maritime trade that he had accumulated so much wealth.

If it were an inland city, it might be possible to plunder ten earldoms of the Principality of Berggong, but it might not be possible to have such a wealth.

Thinking of this, Verin regretted letting Henns Castle go.

Now that you have made a promise, you must abide by it and not change it easily.

Later, Verin asked Kyle to send someone to inform his father and ask him to send a reliable person to receive this huge wealth.

On the other side, when Dredd learned the total revenue of Fire Leaf City, his serious expression suddenly became unbearable.

"What did you say? Say it again."

Hearing this, the deputy captain of the escort squadron repeated what Weilin had told him: "General, the wealth gained by Huoye City is worth 1.5 billion gold coins. According to the agreement between Lord Weilin and you, you will receive a fortune worth 7,500 gold coins." Wealth of millions of gold coins.”

"Well, you go down first and let me take a moment."

"Subordinates retire."

After the deputy captain of the escort squadron left, Dredd still didn't come to his senses.

"Seventy-five million gold coins, so much. It seems that I have lived for more than a hundred years, and the total wealth of my small family does not amount to 20 million gold coins."

Dredd is now one hundred and thirty-one years old. He has two wives, one from a side line of the Eccles family, and one from the Viscount's direct daughter. He has given birth to five sons and three daughters, of which three sons and one daughter are married. There are already eight people in the third generation here.

Among the eighteen guardian knights of Angus, only three have grown to the soul level, and he is the youngest one.

As a gift, his third son became the guardian knight of Ilysses, which is regarded as inheriting his father's legacy.

"With so much money, maybe Master Weilin didn't predict how much wealth Huoye City has."

As this idea grew, Dredd finally decided to inform his master Angus about the matter and let him handle the wealth worth 75 million gold coins.

After the Fire Leaf City was captured, Verin was completely idle.

According to his previous promise, Verin returned the governance of Fireleaf City to the Henns family at the cost of joining the Southern Army.

As for the so-called 50,000-strong army, the drafted men were disbanded and qualified soldiers were recruited, eventually forming an army of 10,000 people, under the control of the third battalion of the Aix Legion, responsible for the defense of the Fire Leaf Territory. .

Regarding the weapons and equipment of the army, Weilin was very kind and asked the Henns family to buy back the previously confiscated iron armor, leather armor and various weapons at 80% of the market price.

Every time he thought about it, Kyle felt that this new way of robbery was a good one. It not only reduced the inventory pressure, but also made a lot of money. He must learn it hard.

……

At Nanshi Camp, Angus looked at the letters that were sent to him one after another. One was from his son, and the other was from his subordinates.

"Did this kid do something wrong?"

Angus, full of doubts, opened the letter from Weilin to him, and looked at the wealth recorded on it, and his heart was full of grains.

"This kid is lucky to have money. He can make a fortune wherever he goes."

Angus didn't care about what the letter said that this huge amount of wealth came from plundering Huoye City. If he could rob it, it would count as his son's ability.

There are some people who can't rob them of money even if you give them a chance to rob them.

"McGonagall, call Migos over."

"Yes, my lord."

Not long after, an ordinary middle-aged man entered the camp, leaned down and saluted: "Lord Angus."

"Migos, I leave this to you. Go to Fireleaf City to get the things back."

"Yes." Migos nodded in response.

The next moment, the space ring that can only be worn by the family floated and fell into Migos's hands.

Looking at the other party's leaving figure, Angus was not worried that the other party would embezzle property and run away.

Migos is his father's guardian knight and the auxiliary minister left by the previous Earl of Eagle. He has served the Aix family for two hundred and thirty years. During these long years, his loyalty has been witnessed.

After opening the second letter, he looked at Dredd's handwriting on it and shook his head with a smile.

This old friend of mine is still so honest.

Rather than treating Dredd as his subordinate, Angus prefers to regard him as his brother.

"Dred seems to have two unmarried sons. Go back and see if there are still unmarried women in the clan."

Then Angus took out paper and pen and started writing.

……

At the beginning of August, Weilin had been staying in Fireleaf City for almost half a month, spending every day leisurely.

At this moment, Huoye City has 5,000 men from the third battalion of the Akers Corps, 5,000 men from Born Willich's army, 10,000 garrison troops, and a total of 20,000 troops. Logically speaking, he should be very busy. , but it's a pity that with General Dredd here, I don't have to worry about it at all.

In addition, a week ago, huge wealth was transported away, which made it easier for me.

It doesn't matter to him if he can finally get a share of the wealth worth 1.5 billion gold coins. Anyway, his father will not let him suffer.

"Sir, do you remember that we have an important thing to do when we come out this time?" Kyle said, looking at his master's laziness.

"What's going on?" Weilin opened his eyes, looked at Kyle, and asked.

"For Lord Baird..."

"By the way, there is also this matter."

Weilin sat up from his chair and remembered this important matter.

"The General Manager is still single and unmarried. As his master, I have to find a few capable women for him so that I can show that I care about him."

"Kyle, go check and find out who are the capable women in Huoye City."

"Yes."

Kyle bowed and saluted, turned around and left the city lord's mansion.

Two days later, Verin and Kyle dressed up and went to the streets to find a suitable wife for Baird.

Since the looting did not affect civilians and only the rich in the city suffered, the streets of Huoye City were in good order.

As a city by the sea, men and women on the street dress very coolly.

In other words, it shows a little too much.
