"The gold mine in the northern part of Songshi Territory has also been sold. Its remaining gold reserves amounted to 1,800 tons, and I sold it for sixty million Gold Coins."
"Adding up all the assets, our gains over the past two months came to 1.544 billion Gold Coins."
After hearing Kyle's report, Velin said somewhat regretfully, "If we had intercepted those fleeing nobles, this wealth would have at least doubled."
"I think so as well." Kyle nodded in agreement and said to Velin, "There was only so much they could carry while fleeing, so what they took must have been the most valuable items. That included all kinds of precious magic potions, rare Cultivation Resources and ores, valuable Breathing Techniques and meditation methods, high-grade weapons and armor fit to be passed down through a family, and so on. Doubling the value would not have been a problem at all."
During the looting, Kyle had found pitifully few things of that sort. As expected, they had all been taken away.
Back in Fire Leaf City, before they had even touched the Hens Family's properties, simply looting the nobles and wealthy merchants of Fire Leaf City had yielded wealth worth 1.5 billion Gold Coins, most of it consisting of those high-value items.
"Forget it. Organize everything and notify the Command Department to come take it over."
"Yes." Kyle saluted, then withdrew from the room.
Velin was already very satisfied with this trip to the Duchy of Bohan.
By a conservative estimate, including his previous gains, he would receive wealth worth six hundred million Gold Coins.
However, everything in Songshi Territory that could be sold had already been sold. Once the war ended, the noble taking over Songshi Territory would have a miserable time. Still, that had nothing to do with him.
