With Koichiro Nakai around, Ning Pengpeng didn't have to worry about the other chaebols not knowing that the chicken killed in "Killing the Chicken to Scare the Monkey" died extremely cleanly.
Because Ning Pengpeng was not going to go to Heini, Wan Jianglong divided the people in the naval camp into several groups.
A group of people stayed on board their own ships to avoid being stolen.
The other group is guarding the pirates' lair to see if any fish have slipped through the net.
The remaining group was led by Wan Jianglong himself and went to the head of Shouning County to help escort the rough gold and silver ingots that had been cast to the ship.
At first, under the influence of Ning Pengpeng, Wan Jianglong was also very worried that this ship would have to travel all the way back to Dajin.
Carrying too many things on board may be detrimental to the boat's operation.
Just wait for him to tell his worries to his subordinates.
The men immediately looked at their heads speechlessly, pointing back at the ships left behind after the pirate den was cleared.
"Sir, will these ships stay here after we return?"
Wan Jianglong stared at the dozens of ships moored next to the pirate dens, and was a little dumbfounded.
Yes, these ships are all good. If they don’t carry people, they can just carry cast gold and silver ingots. It’s perfectly fine!
When he told Shouning County Chief about this, Ning Pengpeng slapped him on the thigh.
(￢_￢)Wonderful!
There are ships to transport the ore, so all they have to do is dig more and more ore before going back!
Be sure to fill all these empty sea ships.
For Ning Pengpeng, coming to Earthworm Island and killing the pirates was one thing.
Taking the opportunity to make a fortune on Earthworm Island is also one aspect.
As for wanting to develop something on this earthworm island, she really hadn't thought about it.
However, just because she hasn't thought about it doesn't mean that others haven't thought about it.
In the third month of hard mining on this earthworm island, they saw that their ships were almost full of crudely refined gold and silver ingots.
However, less than one third of the ore in these mines has been mined, or even less.
So Ning Laosi went to Ning Pengpeng one night to express his thoughts.
"What did you say?
Do you want to stay here and mine?”
Ning Pengpeng almost choked on her own saliva, staring in disbelief at Ning Laosi in front of her.
Ning Laosi nodded vigorously and said to Ning Pengpeng.
"Mom, these mines have only been mined for a small amount. It would be a pity to just give up.
Anyway, the shop in Nanyue Prefecture can be managed by Liu Hu.
I want to stay here and dig out all the ores in the mine, and it won't be too late to go back.
However, I also know that the man named Nakai cannot be trusted.
Therefore, I would like to ask my mother to tell General Wan whether we can leave a group of naval forces from the naval battalion here.
If he can agree, he can be given 30% of the ore dug here in the future.
Mom, what do you think?"
Speaking of this, Ning Laosi's tone was slightly excited.
In the past three months with Nakai, he had almost learned the local language on Earthworm Island.
At least listening and having some simple conversations is absolutely fine.
Therefore, he can firmly believe that there must be other minerals on Earthworm Island besides the mines they are currently mining.
Although these minerals were only crudely refined and would have to be refined again even if they were returned, in actual terms, there must be at least one million taels of gold and silver ingots.
This does not include other minerals. How much wealth would these minerals bring back to the Jin Dynasty?
Even if 30% is given to General Wan, the amount of the rest that will be frightening to death once the mining is completed.
In the Jin Dynasty, as long as it was a mineral, it belonged to the imperial court.
But now, this is Earthworm Island, which does not belong to the territory of the Jin Dynasty.
Thinking about how much wealth has gone to the Ning family, Ning Laosi felt that his blood was boiling.
"I don't think it's good!"
After hearing what Ning Laosi said, Ning Pengpeng lowered her face and said unhappily.
"Fourth, have you ever thought about what's behind the Ning family?
You think General Wan cares about the 30% of the mineral resources you gave him?
If that's the case, why should I be at odds with you?
Wouldn't it be better if he just sent people to stay behind to mine and let you and I get out?"
A few questions were thrown at him, which directly hit Ning Laosi's originally excited mind. It was as if a basin of ice water had been poured on him, giving him a chill.
Yes, what my mother said is right.
If he is just doing a supervisory job, why should he get 70%?
After all, Ning Laosi was a little confused after his own mother was named the county head.
Seeing Ning Laosi's face suddenly turn pale, Ning Pengpeng snorted coldly.
"You have to be lucky, General Wan and his companions all have children and children in South Vietnam.
Otherwise, if we directly occupy this island here, who can do anything to them?
I have thought about the mineral resources here, and the remaining ones that have not been mined will be handed over to the court.
At that time, it will be managed by the authorities.
I believe Master Cui will not disagree with the gold and silver ingots obtained from the ships we dug this time."
After all, the big head belongs to them, and the small head should not care about it like this.
When Ning Laosi heard what his mother said, he pursed his lips and did not object.
Sure enough, the next day, Ning Pengpeng went to find Wan Jianglong and told him his decision.
Wan Jianglong was surprised at first. After all, Ning Pengpeng, Ning Laosi and that Zhongjing were responsible for these mines ever since they arrived on the island.
Even if the ore is later dug, refined, and shipped to the ship.
In Wan Jianglong's heart, he only felt that even if he went back, the ship would definitely belong to the navy camp.
As for the gold, silver and jewelry found in the pirate den, they will naturally be handled by Mr. Cui.
These crudely refined gold and silver ingots dug out of the mine, he subconsciously felt, belonged to the owner of Shouning County.
Now, the Lord of Shouning County not only dedicated the mines currently being dug to the imperial court, but the gold and silver ingots on the ship also belonged to Nanyue Prefecture.
This realization shocked Wan Jianglong's heart.
Of course, there are more surprises.
If Nanyue Prefecture has a share of these gold and silver ingots, then naturally his subordinates can also get a share.
How could such good news make him unhappy?
"General Wan, we have almost filled the space on our ship that can be loaded.
If there are more, I'm afraid it will be dangerous.
However, I'm afraid something might happen to Zhongjing away from people here.
The best way is to leave some manpower behind to prevent trouble.
After we return to Dajin, we will send more people over.
This way, you don’t have to worry about what happens next!”
After listening to what the Shouning County Lord said, Wan Jianglong nodded in agreement.
As long as you are familiar with this route, you can completely use Earthworm Island as a money bag for Nanyue Prefecture.
