"Everyone loves gold, but it will be very troublesome to get this treasure out." After listening to Chen Mo's introduction, the Governor-General of India said that it was impossible to say that he was not moved by this treasure.
But although the treasure is good, it is not easy to get it.
The first thing that needs to be solved is the problem of the rulers of the feudal states.
Although for Britain, even sending troops to destroy a country is just that, but it is already the 20th century, and even the British Empire is not willing to do such a thing of destroying a country for gold.
.
Of course, for the UK, this is just an unwillingness to do it, not an inability to do it.
If the existence of this treasure can be confirmed and the amount is as astonishing as Chen Mo said, the Governor-General of India would not mind causing some trouble and starting a war.
Another problem is excavation and transportation.
After all, this is tons of gold and jewelry, and it cannot be transported away by any means of transport just like any other cargo.
Moreover, it is difficult to say that such an astonishing wealth will not attract covetousness and prying eyes. Safety issues during transportation and whether workers will guard and steal during the excavation process are all issues that need to be considered.
"But wealth touches people's hearts. As long as there are enough benefits, then any difficulty is not a difficulty, right?" Chen Mo looked at the Governor of India and smiled very kindly.
However, in the eyes of the Governor-General of India, Chen Mo's smile at this moment was like a devil tempting people to sell their souls, and he was preparing to sell his soul, and the price was a lot of gold and treasures.
"May I venture to ask how much treasure there is?" the Governor-General of India asked the question that would determine whether he would sell his soul.
After all, if the total wealth is not as much as expected, then you can leave it to your subordinates to take the blame instead of taking action yourself. The soul of the dignified Indian Governor is still very valuable.
However, his persistence did not last until the next second, because Chen Mo gave an answer that he could not refuse: "The temple has a total of six cellars. As far as I know, one of the cellars alone contains at least several tons."
Gold, the wealth in each cellar is roughly the same."
Hearing this, the Viceroy of India decided to sell his soul.
But before that, he had to ask his price: "How much can I get?"
——————————————
"Captain, I don't understand why you want to give the treasure to others." Returning to the residence arranged by the Governor of India, Jack asked Chen Mo puzzledly: "With your power, you can completely steal the treasure without anyone noticing."
When those treasures were evacuated, why did you cooperate with the British and give them half of the treasures?"
Listening to Jack's question, Chen Mo suddenly laughed. He rubbed a ring on his hand and said with a smile, "Who said I gave them the treasure?"
"But you're not..." Jack was about to say that Chen Mo had agreed at the Governor's Mansion to give 40% of the treasure to the British royal family and one share to the Governor of India, but looking at the smile on his face, Jack seemed to understand.
What: "Captain, are you lying to him? Isn't the treasure there?"
"No, everything I told Mr. Governor is the truth, including the location of the treasure and how much it is." Chen Mo denied Jack's guess, and then explained to her: "In fact, I told him everything.
, the only thing I didn’t say is that I can remove the treasure without anyone noticing.”
Chen Mo's explanation made Jack particularly confused. She didn't quite understand why Chen Mo did this.
Seeing Jack's confused look, Chen Mo couldn't help but smile proudly. It felt like you performed a very clever magic trick on the stage, and the audience was fooled by your performance, as if you were full of a sense of accomplishment.
However, Chen Mo didn't confuse his capable subordinate for too long, and he still explained to Jack why he did what he did.
"It's easy to get those treasures, but unfortunately I don't know the specific location of the temple, so I need someone to help find the location of the temple." Chen Mo explained to Jack that he needed the cooperation of the Governor of India.
The first reason, and then the second reason: "Although I can take all the treasures directly from the ground without anyone noticing, wouldn't it be too boring to just take them away without anyone knowing?
?
Think about it, when the people of the Viceroy of India finally opened the temple's cellar and found that the treasures inside had been emptied, what would they think?
Is my information wrong? No, they will only think that someone got there first and dug up the treasure, and the princely royal family will be even more angry because the treasure was emptied under their noses, and they don't know anything.
Even if I want to, I can provoke a conflict between the British and the princes and make India a mess."
"But don't you have a good relationship with the British? Why are you doing this? What good will it do to you if you provoke a conflict?" Jack understood what Chen Mo said, but still didn't understand the reason why he did so.
Jack has been with Chen Mo during this period, and Jack sees his relationship with the British.
In Jack's view, the British were very respectful to Chen Mo, and Chen Mo was also maintaining relations with the British, so the two sides should be friendly.
But now Chen Mo deliberately wanted to take advantage of the British and secretly create trouble for them, which puzzled Jack.
Facing Jack's question, the smile on Chen Mo's face turned cold: "Jack, you have to know that the country I rule in this world was a British colony a few years ago. I snatched it from them.
of.
If you think I have a good relationship with them, that's because I have powerful power and what they want.
Therefore, the relationship between me and them has never been so-called friendly, but related to interests.
I don't mind having a little friendly interaction with them when I need them, but I also don't mind embarrassing them when I can stumbling upon them.
You know, this is true even for the British themselves. They will not miss any opportunity to create obstacles for me and allow Egypt to return to British rule."
Listening to what Chen Mo said, Jack finally understood and couldn't help but nodded and said: "Just like those pirates who cooperate with each other, although they cooperate when robbing, when it comes to dividing the harvest, they will always stab each other!"
"Hahaha, you're right, that's what happened, so now that we have knives in our hands, naturally we don't mind giving the British guy a few blows." Seeing that Jack understood what he meant, Chen Mo burst out laughing: "British guy
If given the chance, I would make the same choice, so I will send you and the people of the Governor of India to find the temple, and you will know what to do after you find it."
