I am the emperor in Nanyang, I am the ultimate winner

Chapter 139: Imperial Mausoleum Incident (Part )

The commander couldn't help feeling excited as he looked at the huge boxes in front of him.

He shouted, "Open! Open all the boxes!"

"Yes!" the soldiers responded in unison and took quick action.

They carefully lifted the lids and gently opened the boxes.

As the lid was opened, dazzling golden light emanated from the box, making it impossible to open one's eyes.

Each box was filled with glittering gold, silver and jewelry, which was dazzling to the eyes.

"We're rich! We're rich!" the soldiers cheered excitedly.

Their eyes were attracted by the treasures and greed flashed in their eyes.

At this moment, some soldiers could no longer suppress their desire and began to scramble for the jewels frantically.

They pushed and shoved each other, and even fought each other.

The situation became chaotic and completely out of control.

These soldiers have lost their minds. All they see are gold, silver and jewelry. Nothing else matters anymore.

The commander was furious when he saw this scene.

He quickly picked up his pistol and fired several shots into the air: "Bang, bang, bang!" The deafening gunshots scared everyone.

"Stop it!" the commander roared, his voice filled with unquestionable majesty.

He fired again, pointing the gun at the soldiers who were fighting over the treasure.

The soldiers were stunned by the commander's actions. They stopped what they were doing and looked at the commander in confusion.

They realized that their actions had gone too far, but they could not resist the temptation of treasure.

The commander said solemnly: "Put down all the gold, silver and jewelry!"

"I will sell these things, and the proceeds will be distributed fairly among everyone."

"Anyone who dares to move without permission will be punished by military law!"

After hearing what the commander said, the soldiers were unwilling but did not dare to continue fighting.

They slowly put the gold, silver and jewelry in their hands back to their original places, all with dejected looks.

However, some soldiers still took advantage of the chaos to stuff some small items into their pockets.

They thought they could do this without anyone noticing, but they didn't know that the commander had already seen it.

At this time, the chief of staff said: "General, the real good things are all in the coffin!" Hearing this, everyone was shocked and showed surprise on their faces.

So the commander immediately ordered the coffin to be opened.

There was only an unweathered corpse lying inside, and what was even more amazing was that there were all kinds of priceless antiques inside, emitting dazzling light.

"General, look at this! This is a huge emerald cabbage!"

"Such perfect color and texture, it's simply priceless!" The chief of staff said excitedly, pointing to one of the treasures.

"And this! This is a painting of birds paying homage to the phoenix, this is a deep-sea luminous pearl, and this is..." The chief of staff continued to introduce each treasure to the commander excitedly.

After listening to the chief of staff's introduction, the commander's attention was also drawn over. He stared at these priceless antiques, with greed flashing in his eyes.

He ordered: "Seal up all the gold, silver and jewelry and take them back!"

"Yes, General!" the soldiers responded in unison.

Afterwards, the soldiers carefully carried out large boxes filled with gold, silver and jewelry, as if they were holding rare treasures in their hands.

Just as they were loading the truck, an accident happened.

Suddenly, a large box accidentally fell down and hit the ground with a loud noise.

The lid of the box broke, and the gold, silver and jewelry inside scattered all over the floor.

Just at this moment, a reporter happened to pass by.

He looked at the scene in surprise, with a strong curiosity in his heart.

Taking advantage of the chaos, he quickly took out his camera and secretly captured the scene.

At this time, the commander suddenly noticed that someone was behaving abnormally and was doing something sneaky.

But what was certain was that the man was definitely not one of theirs: "Someone come! Catch that sneaky guy and shoot him!"

The reporter originally wanted to hide himself, but he was discovered by the commander. When he realized that there were soldiers coming towards him, he was terrified and quickly got up and ran away.

However, no matter how fast he ran, he could not match the speed of a bullet.

Within a few minutes, the reporter was lying in a pool of blood.

Several soldiers quickly rushed to the scene, carefully examined the reporter, and after confirming that he was dead, they took the camera back to the army.

The commander looked at the camera brought back by the soldiers and was glad that he caught the reporter in time.

If this news spreads, the consequences will be disastrous.

At this time, all the gold, silver and jewelry had been taken back to the army.

The commander came to the square and said to the soldiers: "Whoever took something yesterday, return it now."

"I can pretend that nothing happened, otherwise don't blame me for being rude!"

Some soldiers understood the commander's words and obediently put back the gold, silver and jewelry they had hidden.

Of course, there were some who were unwilling to do so, and they asked the army commander to order them all to be shot.

After returning to the living room, the chief of staff was counting the gold, silver and jewelry this time: "Report to the commander-in-chief, the value of the gold, silver and jewelry in one box will not be less than 10 million silver coins."

"There are a total of one hundred large boxes, with a total value of more than one billion silver coins, and that doesn't even include those priceless antiques."

"Okay, okay, this time we finally don't have to worry about the military pay. The two division commanders will each get a box, and Chief of Staff, you have made the greatest contribution, so you will also get a box. We will have to find a way to sell the rest."

"Thank you, Commander."

The chief of staff responded at this time: "There are many cargo ships coming and going from Yan Country every day. I suggest that we sell these gold and silver treasures to Yan Country through these cargo ships, which can reduce our risks."

"Okay, Chief of Staff, let's do it your way. But are you sure they will buy it? After all, this is a huge fortune."

"Don't worry, Commander. The Yan people have always had a strong interest in this kind of treasure. As long as the price is right, they will definitely be willing to buy it."

"That's good. I'll leave this matter to you. Please be careful and don't let the news leak out."

"Yes! I will live up to your expectations and complete the mission."

"Well, I believe in your ability. Also, convert this batch of gold and silver treasures into cash as soon as possible. We need funds to replenish armaments and pay soldiers."

"Understood, Commander."

After saying that, the chief of staff turned and left the living room and began to arrange the transaction with Yan Country.

He was fully aware of the importance of the task and had to ensure that everything went smoothly, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous.

The commander sat on the sofa, thinking about how to better utilize the wealth to enhance the strength and status of the army.
