Chapter 1199 Poor Captain

After Han Li found the gem and no mechanism or other arrangements, he plunged into the seawater and swam in.

Even though there was no sea breeze in this cave, when Han Li came out of the sea, he still shivered involuntarily when his skin suddenly came into contact with the cold air.

When Han Li was not swimming, he walked upwards while using his mental power to move the topaz, ruby, emerald, amethyst, and black amber scattered in the seawater into the decomposition space.

When Han Li's feet left the water, he had already collected about a hundred rough-processed gems, as well as some gold and silver coins.

At this time, Han Li didn't pay attention to the things that had been put away. His eyes had already fallen on the weathered wooden boxes high up in the seaside cave, as well as the treasures scattered around.

Even though many of the unseasoned boxes had not yet been opened, the gold, silver, and jewelry scattered outside gave Han Li a great shock.

Han Li now understands why corrupt officials in ancient times like to go to their treasure rooms and silver rooms in TV dramas when they have nothing to do.

The visual impact brought by the accumulation of such treasures was very great and spectacular. It was so spectacular that Han Li didn't know what to say at this moment.

Even though Han Li still doesn't know how many things are inside, his mood at the moment can only be described as extremely exciting.

When Han Li used his mental power to examine the treasures in front of him, he became less excited.

Han Li took out the parchment from a small iron box at the end, but he was not in a hurry to read the contents.

Instead, he took out a bath towel from the decomposition space, wiped himself clean, got dressed, and then took out an iron bucket and some wood to light it. He sat down and warmed himself by the fire while opening the parchment roll.

Han Li was stunned for a moment when he saw the arrangement and combination of the words on this parchment. The content on it should be written in very old Welsh.

Moreover, the content recorded above is a bit very serious, indicating that this person's cultural level is very low.

According to the current grade ranking, he is at most a second grade elementary school student, slightly better than those illiterate people.

If Han Li hadn't been proficient in Welsh, it would have taken him a while to understand the contents of this parchment.

The person who wrote the description on the parchment is named Erwin Kidd, and he should be the owner of this treasure.

This Erwin Kidd is a person of chronological age. It is not mentioned above, but his occupation is the captain of a privateer.

This records how much treasure Erwin Kidd got from robbing those ships at sea.

The looted treasures were used not only for ship maintenance, daily food and drink, but also for distribution to his subordinates.

The rest were all hidden here bit by bit by Erwin Kidd in a small boat.

The reason why Erwin Kidd hid these treasures was not for the future generations of his family, because he was a commoner and had no family at all.

This starts with the Lord Derek Holden, who was the captain of the privateer back then.

Because he provided enough treasures to the queen, Derek Holden became a noble of Ingoland, thus completely breaking away from the civilian class.

Because Erwin Kidd and Derek Holden were both privateer captains, he could roughly guess how much treasure Derek Holden had to offer in exchange for the title of Lord.

This also made Elvin Kidd very jealous of Derek Holden, who had become a nobleman, and he no longer wanted to live a life of being exposed to the wind and sun every day and hanging his head on his belt.

He also wanted to live in a castle, with servants at his disposal, maids to warm the bed, listen to others' praise, attend various gatherings only among nobles, and live a noble life that others would envy.

Stimulated by Derek Holden becoming a noble, Elvin Kidd changed his past habit of having money today and spending it today, and started to accumulate wealth bit by bit.

Erwin Kidd wanted to ensure that he could succeed once and for all, instead of being caught and hanged by the Royal Navy as a pirate because of his small number.

He planned to accumulate the amount of treasures to a level similar to when Derek Hall ascended to supply the Queen, and then find someone to help deliver a message to the royal family.

This Erwin Kidd left the treasure here without using it for so many years. You don't need to guess to know that he must have died in a robbery or a shipwreck.

Erwin Kidd may not have that much culture, or he may be lazy. He did not explain the origin of these treasures, did not classify them in detail, and uniformly recorded them in large, medium, and small boxes.

No matter who gets this parchment, he can't figure out how much gold, how much silver, how much jewelry, how many ornaments are registered on it.

Even so, when Han Li saw this and looked at the treasures piled up like a hill next to him, he immediately started to complain.

"Damn it, the queen is so good at doing this business without capital. Erwin Kidd has accumulated so much treasure that he can't even exchange for a title?

I really wonder how much treasure the pirate named Derek Hall gave her in exchange for that Lord?

Due to the general situation of tribute in those years, how many nobles did the English royal family give out? How much gold and silver treasures did they get? This is definitely an astronomical figure."

The parchment scroll contains the words that Elvin Kidd encouraged himself and the words he scolded his colleagues.

After Han Li finished reading the parchment scroll, his body recovered. Next, he should have waved his hand and put all these things into the decomposition space.

But Han Li did not do so. He had nothing to worry about now, and this place would not be discovered by others.

So, Han Li planned to watch these treasures being counted and registered bit by bit with his own eyes, fully satisfying the addiction of the ancient rich man, and then put them in after satisfying his eyes and hands.

But before doing it himself Before taking inventory, Han Li planned to use his mental power to check the location of the treasures.

In this way, Han Li could easily register the gold, silver, jewelry, finished products, and semi-finished products one by one.

But after Han Li roughly checked it with his mental power, the excitement on his face disappeared.

Han Li didn't know whether Elvin Kidd was stupid, had another treasure cave, or was just unlucky.

These piled up treasures looked a lot, but the value of this pile of treasures was really not high, at least it was much different from Han Li's initial expectations. Who would have thought that there was actually...
