Fighting life and death just to make ends meet?
The new and old bosses are not stingy, so everyone feels relieved.
Next, everyone escorted the prisoners back. Ding Zuodong, who came with the ship, took two newly recruited stewards to count the remaining wealth in the treasure house and calculate the value of the assets on Centipede Island.
Before He Lingchuan rewarded his men, the total value of the property in the treasury was less than thirty thousand taels, which was not as much as Yue Pinghe's self-proclaimed personal assets.
But Ding Zuodong found more than a dozen land deeds and commercial deeds in an inconspicuous box, corresponding to real estate shops in Mouguo, Qingguo, Blade Port and several other small countries.
Pirates usually plunder goods, and they like gold and silver jewelry the most, followed by goods, and lastly these contracts. Selling them is risky, takes a long time, and the transactions are inconvenient.
But these are not problems for He Lingchuan, just leave it to Ding Zuodong to take care of it.
In addition, the buildings on Centipede Island are not valuable, but there are seven intact main ships, 13 small boats, and some small boats and fishing boats in the dock at the belly of the mountain.
Although not all cargo ships, these are all He Lingchuan needs.
The future business and transportation of Yangshan Islands will depend on sailing. Without these basic means of transportation, how can we do business?
Ding Zuodong looked at these things, grinning from ear to ear:
"The remaining treasures in the treasure house should be more than 17,000 taels; these land-deeded shops-" Ding Zuodong hesitated. He didn't know much about the prices of goods in Mou and other small countries. "Let's make a conservative estimate of 9,000 taels.
"
He Lingchuan hummed. He spent 80,000 taels to buy the Yangshan Islands, and he only got 26,000 taels back after destroying them. It was a really good deal.
Now, he has more than 240,000 taels in his hand.
"And these ships..."
He Lingchuan smiled and said: "Don't forget about the boats. We can use them all and won't sell them."
Moreover, there was an unexpected surprise in annihilating Yue Pinghe this time. Min Tianxi specially reminded He Lingchuan that there were many shipwrights on Centipede Island, and their shipbuilding and repair skills were particularly exquisite. They were famous throughout Blade Port.
Now that the three pirates have been destroyed, these people will naturally become He Lingchuan's trophies.
This is exactly the talent He Lingchuan urgently needs.
He is the owner of the island, and he needs a fleet of ships. The more ships, the better, and the bigger the hull, the better.
There are actually many tools for extracting palm oil on the island. In another cave in the village, there are seven to eight hundred barrels of pressed oil. The quality is also very good. I heard that it was supposed to be delivered in five days.
