Bulgarian Empire

When Morka opened a secret room, the wealth in front of him immediately shocked everyone. Although it was known in advance that he was here for treasure hunting, he did not expect that there would be so much gold.

A 1.2-meter-high elephant statue made of gold, a gold ornament weighing one ton, a pile of gold coins minted during the East India Company period, 18 coins from the Napoleon period in the early 19th century, and several inlaid Diamond crown and countless jewels.

For Morka, finding the treasure is only the first step. The task must be successfully taken out and transported back to Bulgaria safely!

At the moment, the most important issue for Morka is how to transport the treasure out smoothly. The temple repairs can only be delayed for a while. Over time, it will inevitably arouse the attention of everyone, and the night is long and dreamy!

In the 19th century, it was not the excavation organized by the later Indian government. There were various types of machinery that could be used. Now they can only rely on manpower to carry this huge wealth!

For the sake of confidentiality, Morka and others have not been able to increase manpower, and can only carry it at night!

Morka looked at the statue, gritted his teeth, and said fiercely: "Cut all the big guys in it into small pieces and ship them away in batches!"

Although he knows that if these accessories are shipped back intact, the value can be preserved, but now he can't care about so much!

Anyway, it is all made of gold, even if it is damaged, it will not affect Ferdinand's printing of money!

Fortunately, none of them are religious fanatics, and there is no pressure in their hearts to destroy such things as gods.

Oh, even if you are a believer, you still believe in God. They don't know the **** of the third brother!

Time passed in a hurry, and the day was about to dawn, and Morka said coldly, regardless of the fact that the statue hadn't been divided, "Stop! It's about to dawn, there is too much movement here, it is easy to be discovered, so seal the room Get up, we will pick it up in the evening!"

Now Morka's pressure is much greater, and now is the most critical moment. If the news is leaked at this moment, the loss will be great, or they will be evaporated by the world!

In the face of huge wealth, who knows whether colonial officials will take the risk and kill them directly?

...

Time passed day by day, and at the evening of the third day, the first secret room was finally emptied. Now Morka and others have turned their attention to another secret room. They are not Indians, and they don't care if they will damage the cultural relics, let alone leave them to posterity.

It was the old method. The violence broke through and the luck was delayed at night. It lasted more than a week before and after, and the talents such as Morka emptied the treasure smoothly!

At this time, they also attracted the attention of the local colonial officials, but the tiger skin of the United Mining Company was large enough to make the local officials throw a rat-avoidance device and dare not act rashly!

Morka knows that he is only concerned about the small officials in the Kerala region. He has no guts to offend the backstage of the United Mining Company. It can be settled. If it attracts the attention of the high-level Indian colony, it will be in trouble!

Looking carefully at the temple, Morka found that there were many valuable things inside, so he thought of a way.

"Now that the treasure has been taken out, we will split into two paths, one secret and one light!

The wealth that has been exposed in Padmanabaswamy Temple is not a small number. These idols and accessories are worth tens of thousands of pounds at least!

We will select a few accessories from the treasure and put them in to make up the number. In this way, it is estimated that they will not doubt it!

Goods worth more than 100,000 pounds are also worthy of our caution!

The group on the bright side looted the goods and put them directly on the accounts of the United Mining Company, and transported them back openly, attracting the attention of all parties.

A group in the dark, will move to secretly transport the treasure later, and will be mixed in the fleet going to the Indian trade at that time! "

Of course, looting the temple would definitely cause local hatred, but Morka didn't care. Colonial officials should also take advantage of it. If they take advantage, they will naturally do things!

Presumably for the wealth of more than 100,000 pounds, it is enough for Edward to stand on stage once, anyway, it is a telegram problem for him!

By the way, the Royal Navy can also **** all the way. The seas are not peaceful this year, there are many pirates, and the security from the Indian Ocean to the Mediterranean is also a problem!

The transport of secret treasures went smoothly, and Indians did not dare to provoke whites this year. After the packing was completed, considering the lack of manpower, Morka even hired the locals as coolies. With the hard work of Asanmen, Morka and others finally successfully transported the treasure to the port.

But the whole way on the bright side was very bad. The local Indians knew that he had looted Padmanabhaswamy Temple. There were constant troubles along the way. The guards also slaughtered and killed them all the way. !

Oh, it's an exaggeration. In the face of the Indians in the Cold Weapons Age, the guards even set up machine guns, and they were killing them.

It didn't take long to arrive at the port smoothly, and then the ship set sail. In the latter part of the matter, the colonial officials are naturally responsible for the aftermath. Anyway, those who die are the lowest-level untouchables, which are worthless in India!

From discovering the treasure to packing it away. All this was completed in just ten days.

Except for the guards who attracted attention on the surface, some people were injured in a sneak attack, the others are in the control of Morka!

Then, something very strange happened. Both the real treasure and the fake treasure were in the same fleet, under the protection of the Royal Navy, and set off for the Mediterranean.

...

Ferdinand has always been adhering to making a full set of play, so although the treasure has been transported away smoothly, the prospecting team continues to look for gold in India.

India has always been one of the main producing areas of gold, even if it wants to have gold reserves for later generations, it still ranks among the top ten in the world. So many prospecting experts, why can't they lie down for nothing?

...

Ferdinand received the first telegram from Moorka only after the shipment was successfully shipped.

"all the best!"

No way, for the sake of safety, according to the practice of this era, it is very economical for everyone to send telegrams, especially trans-ocean telegrams!

You can use the telegram to talk about family affairs, it is only the big aristocrats and big capitalists can afford to play, ordinary businessmen do not dare to play like this!

At this moment, Morka's identity has changed again. This time he played as a Bulgarian businessman and went to India for trade. He just caught up with the fleet and was taken by the way.

After receiving the telegram, Ferdinand did not let go of his heart. After all, the value of the treasure of the temple is too great!

He clearly remembered that the estimated value of the secret room treasures opened by the media in later generations was 11 billion U.S. dollars. If another secret room is added, this figure will become even bigger!

As long as you get this batch of gold, in the next twenty years, Bulgaria will have gold reserves for currency issued!

The dividend of the currency issuance is enough for the Bulgarian government to pay off its current debt!

However, this dividend is long-term. Lev is not a pound. If so much is put on the market at once, it will just wait for inflation!

...

As time passed, Ferdinand couldn't wait any longer.

"Your Majesty, Mr. Morka called and said that the fleet had just arrived at the Port of Parga." A maid walked in and said

"Really?" Ferdinand asked habitually.

Without waiting for the maid to answer, he snatched the manuscript and read it. After repeated confirmation, Ferdinand's hanging heart was relieved.

"According to my order, order the garrison in the Epirus area to send a regiment of troops to the Port of Parga to pick up the goods, and then ship them directly to Sofia!" Ferdinand ordered directly

Now that he has entered the territory of Bulgaria, Ferdinand will not be affected if he does not send the army directly to receive the goods. Then the customs people will find out, and it will be bad if the treasure is exposed!

It is easy for a caring person to judge that the origin of this batch of gold will be enough for Ferdinand to bear when the British Empire comes to the door!

Now, Ferdinand has decided that in recent years, it is better not to expose these treasures, so as not to cause disputes. Even if you want to take it out, you have to wait until his future is clear!

Of course, gold doesn't matter, as long as it is smelted into gold bars, who knows where these things come from? Is it possible that with Ferdinand’s status, anyone can question the source of his property?

As for the other antiques and cultural relics, they will be kept in his warehouse as collections, and they will be sold to A Sanhao for his children and grandchildren in the future!

Ferdinand thought to himself: This can be regarded as returning to the original owner!

However, with the Indians' love of gold, it is possible that in the future these gold products will turn from gold bars to jewelry again, returning to their original places!

After Ferdinand gave the order, under the **** of the army, the treasures arrived in Sofia in less than five days.

At this time, Ferdinand was in a good mood to personally meet these heroes.

Of course, Ferdinand would not admit that he was curious, mainly to see the treasure. Meeting these heroes is just his custom of buying people's hearts!

Looking at a pile of hills made of gold, the shock to people is huge! At this moment, a sense of pride emerged spontaneously. At this moment, Ferdinand seemed to feel that he was the protagonist and was blessed by the power of the world!

However, he soon woke up, all this was too illusory. If he is really a son of the plane, perhaps he will not pass through Ferdinand, but Edward VII, or Nicholas II, or William II!

In contrast, if you want to beat the whole world day by day, the top three have a better chance! Forget it for Bulgaria. Such a great proposition as the world hegemony really has little to do with them!

Carl Palace smiled and said cheerfully: "Your Majesty, the value of the treasure has been roughly estimated. This is a list!"

Ferdinand smiled slightly, took the list, and looked at it carefully. The treasures are even bigger than he estimated!

Gold alone is as high as more than 500 tons, and other treasures are also huge, including a few crowns. As for which dynasty in India left, this Ferdinand is not sure.

The total value of all goods is nearly 100 million pounds! This figure may not be enough for the British Empire to spend in the Boer War, but for Ferdinand, aside from real estate, it has doubled his personal assets!

Think about it, the only thing that later generations took out was the treasure in the secret room outside. The innermost one was not opened. Under normal circumstances, everyone is in the safest place to put the most valuable things!

It's a pity that the large statues inside have been dismembered, otherwise the value will be even higher. Of course, Ferdinand didn't mean to blame at all, on the contrary, he admired Morka's approach. Only what he got was his own!

If you can't get it, what's the use even if it is priceless? Ferdinand is not an Indian, so why should he save cultural relics for them?

Ferdinand thought about it for a while and said in a good mood: "Collect the antique relics first and put them in my warehouse. As for the gold? The jewelry is intact and put in the warehouse. The damaged ones will all be smelted into gold bars. Store it in the vault first!"

"Yes!" Karl Palace answered solemnly

After dealing with the treasure, Ferdinand is again considering the issue of rewards for meritorious officials.

Should I give cash rewards directly? Is it better to reward them with land? Or is it to add officials or promote them?

The first thing to exclude is the promotion. UU Reading www. uukanshu. The matter of com, after all, is Ferdinand's private matter, and it cannot be said on the surface.

Moreover, in order to ensure the gold content of the title, Ferdinand also controlled the title very strictly. Without enough credit, it is impossible to obtain the title!

The credit of Morka and others is enough, but unfortunately I can't take it to the surface. Of course, there are titles too, but they are not hereditary, they are just virtual titles. This kind of title Ferdinand can still be named casually!

But this kind of virtual lords is not worthy of their credit. After thinking about it, Ferdinand finally decided to promote the ten most contributors to be Lords, and then all the land bills can be freely chosen!

Of course, these rewards are all taken from Ferdinand’s personal assets, so they have nothing to do with the Bulgarian government. Just need to inform the government and tell them that Bulgaria's aristocracy has grown again.

Of course, this kind of lord in mainstream society is not recognized, but it doesn't matter, here is Bulgaria, everyone is an explosive household, and they can only fight each other!

A total of more than two hundred people participated in the operation, and it can be said that they are all Ferdinand's most loyal men! Of course, their wealth and lives are also in the hands of Ferdinand!

According to the amount of credit, everyone who participated in the action received a reward of a minimum of 10,000 lev and a maximum of 200,000 lev, or exchanged for the same amount of land!

From the beginning of the action to the end of the reward for heroes. Ferdinand has invested nearly 10 million levs (about 400,000 pounds) in total. It has to be said that digging for treasure is also a large investment project!

After calculating it again, Ferdinand could only sigh, "The third brother is really good!"
