Chapter 83 The Windfall Picked Up

Frederick went to the side of the ship and looked around, and he found that there were three or four hundred women who were different from the people next to him.

Many of the people who came this time came to seek refuge with their family members. After getting off the ship, they were obviously relieved to have reached their destination. Many people cried after meeting their family members who had heard the news.

And those women, old and young, stood there in a daze after getting off the boat, with no expression in their eyes, like wooden statues.

"Send it to Weissburg University first." Frederick frowned helplessly. "There are a lot of people in Constantbul there, and it's easy for them to find someone they can communicate with."

He was frightened by so many people. If there were only twenty or thirty people, it would be okay, but it would be a headache to arrange for hundreds of people.

At the same time, this also reflects Richard Nall's status in the world from the side.

"And then?" Richard Nall asked, "I promised them that I came here to give them a new life."

Frederick thought about it for a while, and there would be no good solution for a while, so he could only say: "I don't know how to arrange them now, let's arrange for them to learn the language and characters here, and give priority to them when there are jobs in the future. "

Richard Nall nodded, that's all he could do.

Psyche went on to say: "This time, many people took the opportunity to follow, many of them are artisans. Phocas collects high taxes in the city, and those who can run are seizing the opportunity to run."

Frederick could only say: "I'll let the guild arrange them."

After finishing speaking, he called Tarot down the boat and asked her to arrange for someone to go back to Wessenburg to call someone.

"Is there anything else to gain?" Frederick asked.

Richard Nall pointed to the cabin under his feet, and then everyone went in together.

"You robbed the palace?" Frederick asked the two in front of him with a look of surprise.

At this time, in front of him was an open iron box, more than half a meter long, wide and high, and there was only one thing in it—gold bars.

The royal family of the Rhine Union occupies a large area of ​​plains on both sides of the Rhine River and in the north, and has mineral resources. The annual income is about 3 florins.

The Grand Duke of Mainz has a lot of mountains here, but his family has a mine, and the family's annual income is more than 1 to [-] florins.

The feudal nobles of the Rhine Union have fewer territories than other places. Generally, earls with mature territories have a family income ranging from [-] to [-] florins a year due to different territories, and the income of a baron is between [-] and [-] florins. .

The gold bricks in the box do not seem to be many now, but in fact there are more than a ton, which is equivalent to the income of the royal family of the Rhine Union for ten years.

Psyche said calmly: "Someone kept it in the library's underground stack for two or three hundred years. I saw no one wanted it, so I picked it up."

Frederick blinked and asked cautiously, "Is there any more?"

Psyche gave him a pair of supercilious eyes, and said, "You should be a wild flower and weed by the roadside."

Frederick nodded, thinking he was right.

"The others are silver." Psyche said, pointing to several boxes next to him.

Frederick's eyes widened, and there was a lot of silver.

This windfall is of great significance to him, and he can build hundreds of steam engines.

"Trouble." He ushered in the distress of happiness, "These gold and silver have to be minted into coins before they can be used. How many silver coins do they cost?"

Richard Nall said very normally: "Then you mint the coins yourself, as long as it conforms to the laws of the Rhine Union minting coins."

Frederick's heart skipped a beat when he heard it.

The Rhineland Alliance was originally formed by the remnants of the defeated Second Planan Empire. The king at that time gave the nobles the right to mint coins in order to win people's hearts, but also stipulated the precious metal content, weight and One side of the pattern.

It seems good to have the right to mint coins, but not everyone has a mine, and only the royal family and nobles who have mines will benefit in the end.

To mint coins, you need to open a bank to issue currency. The current bank mainly conducts currency exchange business, and lending is still secondary, and deposits are subject to custody fees.

There are no banks in Wessenland, and currency exchange depends on professional merchants in the market.

Opening a bank is more professional technical work than opening a university, and requires professionals. At present, the most recognized in the society are the bankers in the coastal areas of the Kingdom of Sardinia and their teams based on family blood.

They are mercenaries in the financial industry. They are professional and loyal. If anyone intentionally harms or betrays their employer, they will be hacked by professionals hired by the guild to ensure the credibility and interests of the entire group.

Frederick thought for a while, he didn't have professionals under his command, so he could only trust those experts from the Kingdom of Sardinia.

Katie is familiar with the Kingdom of Sardinia, so I have to ask her for help.

Frederick made a decision in his heart and asked the two big men to keep the gold and silver and move them back to the castle at night.

Although it is inconvenient to walk at night, the advantages of fighting in the dark are greater, and it will be more obvious if there are bad guys.

It can be said that people have three urgencies when squatting in the grass during the day, but squatting in the grass in the middle of the night, when they are cut off, no one can help them speak.

Frederick got off the boat to see other places, but Manuai invited him to the court to find people as soon as he got out of the cabin.

The one to be fished out was a thin and small old man. When Manuai asked Frederick at first, he said that he snatched the notebook of the dock staff out of curiosity, but the young man was a bit stubborn and called the police. official.

Who would have thought that after coming to the court, the old man was charged with a new crime: robbing the court.

"Have you made enough trouble!" Manuai yelled angrily, startling everyone in the court hall, and rolled up his sleeves to beat them, and then the fight started.

People in the courts are not surprised by this kind of thing. In the past, when local young people were caught for petty theft, many of them beat and scolded their families first after calling their families.

The judge here asked Frederick in a low voice: "Sir, do you want to place a bet?"

Frederick said coldly, "I hate gambling the most."

"Be careful, if one day you are caught because of gambling and want you to bend the law for personal gain, hehe..."

The judge immediately broke out in a cold sweat and began to show his loyalty there.

Frederick didn't look at him anymore, his attention was on Manuai and the little old man.

Manuai punched quite well, obviously he had practiced it before, but the little old man held the newly printed Wesson collar law code in his right hand, and blocked his fists lightly with his left hand.

Frederick pinched his chin, feeling that Manuai and the little old man looked alike.

"Oh! You fouled!" The little old man rubbed his butt with a depressed expression on his face.

Manuai kicked him abruptly just now.

Manuai ignored him, and came over to Frederick angrily and said, "Principal, don't bother you, let him eat in prison here."

Frederick smiled and said, "It's not a big deal, just a fine."

Manuai immediately took out a purse made of purple silk from his pocket and handed it to the judge beside him, and said, "It's all for you."

"My money!" The little old man rushed over at once.

Manuai pointed to Frederick who was beside him and said, "This is our principal."

After speaking, he secretly gave the principal a look.

The little old man paused suddenly, turned his head to look at Frederick, and in the next second his temperament changed suddenly, and he became a tall man with the bones of a fairy.

"Not bad, not bad, very good." He looked at Frederick like an old diner looking at delicacies, "I, Celsus, am the wisest man on the coast, who has trained countless emperors, Kings, great scholars, even a fool like Manuai, I can make a sage."

"I see that you are smart and enlightened, are you interested in being my disciple?"

Frederick asked him obediently: "Do you know how to produce metal from ore through electric current?"

Celsus looked confused, wouldn't it be enough to smelt metal with fire?

Seeing that he didn't answer, Frederick asked again with a cute look: "Do you know the calculation of the axial force, shear force, bending moment, and torque of the building structure?"

Celsus continued to be confused and did not understand.

Frederick made another cute expression and asked, "Then do you know how to artificially inseminate reptiles?"

Celsus continues to be in a daze, what kind of new gameplay is this?
Frederick shrugged and said regretfully, "You don't understand anything, so forget it."

Celsus was so angry that his face turned red and then pale, he hummed heavily, turned and left, then turned and came back again, he had no money on him, and he was unfamiliar with the place, so he couldn't leave.

Manuai said to Frederick: "This old guy is still useful, just give him a job."

Celsus immediately nodded and said, "Yes, yes, yes, if you have any work with less money and more money, just do it for me!"

Frederick smiled and said, "There's no rush now, let's settle down first, let Manuai arrange the work."

Manuai replied immediately: "Okay, I will take him to work now."

Then he turned his head and said to Celsus viciously: "Go and move all those books back to school!"
