The results were extremely impressive, and the gold coins alone were roughly estimated to be as many as 50,000, which is quite an exaggerated number.It is worthy of the financial resources of a duke, which is really enviable.Seeing this scene, even Owen couldn't help but feel that before he met Winster, the financial income of Frontier Town was only more than 2,000 gold coins a year.Moreover, in order to maintain the normal operation of the town, it is necessary to purchase a lot of supplies from the outside, as well as fight against undead monsters, resulting in very high expenses.As a result, there is not much surplus every year, and there is an occasional deficit.In the early spring, Owen set up some projects and invested a lot of money.It didn't take long for Clive to come to the door urgently, saying that the vault was in a hurry and would soon be empty.Luckily, he was able to earn a thousand gold coins from President Masha by selling some of the Frontier Town's specialty goods, and he was able to get a temporary respite.Duke Eddie was able to accumulate such a large amount of wealth, and it can be seen that he is very good at looting the people's fat and ointment from his own people.However, so many coins lay quietly in the vault, and Owen felt sorry for them.Only when money is reasonably invested in the development and construction of the territory and forms a virtuous circle can it maximize its role.Just in the vault, the coins are just a pile of precious metals.These were the superficial things that Irving learned about economics from Winster.Now, such a large sum of money has fallen into the hands of Owen, and the border town can finally say goodbye to the days of lack of money in the past.He will never let the money continue to lie in the coffers, but will invest it in various engineering projects with confidence and boldness, so as to promote the economic development of the border town and make the best use of the money.In addition, Owen also knew very well that Duke Eddie definitely did not only have these superficial wealth, but also other hidden treasures.Thinking of this, he turned his head to look at Duke Eddie, whose face was pale, and asked, "You should have more than this money, tell me quickly, where have you hidden the rest of the treasures?"
”"What are you talking about?"
Duke Eddie glared at Owen fiercely, and said angrily: "That's all I have, the vault and underground warehouse have been stripped of by you!"
What more do you want?!
”"Oh?
You don't want to say yes, do you?
”Owen winked at Viscount Jarvis.The latter immediately understood, drawing a knife and threatening Duke Eddie as he had done last time."
Do you want your fingers anymore?""
No is nothing!"
Duke Eddie said stubbornly.In this case, Owen could only nod his head and allow Viscount Jarvis to make a move, while two soldiers controlled Duke Eddie from behind.However, this time Duke Eddie did not struggle as desperately as he did last time, and no matter how much Viscount Jarvis threatened, he refused to confess.In the end, he actually cut off one of Duke Eddie's little fingers, and he wailed in pain, and the sound was heard almost throughout the castle of the lords.Having achieved this level, Duke Eddie was still reluctant to reveal the location of his private treasure.In desperation, Owen had no choice but to send someone to call Teresa and ask her to perform a healing spell on Duke Eddie to stop the bleeding.Otherwise, Duke Eddie would have been howling and arguing to death.The wound healed, but Duke Eddie was forever missing a little finger.He covered the missing part of his palm, choked up and said to Owen, "I say no is no, even if you kill me, no!"
”Tut!
I never expected that Duke Eddie would treat money like his life so much, I am afraid that he will not say it if he really threatens to kill him.Since the wicked can't force Duke Eddie to reveal his hidden treasure, they have to resort to another method.So, Owen called Yuchina over and asked questions about which floors contained the treasures."
I ask you, is the treasure hidden on the first floor?""
Whatever you ask, it's useless!"
Duke Eddie said."
Less nonsense!"
Owen scolded, "Answer me, yes or no?"
”"Nope!""
What about the second floor?"
Each floor was asked, and when asked about the third and fourth floors, Owen learned that Duke Eddie was lying, thanks to Yuchina's abilities.In other words, the treasure is hidden in those two floors.Continue to narrow down the scope further through questioning.After determining the approximate range, Owen asked the soldiers to escort Duke Eddie to the third and fourth floors, and asked him in each room of the range if he had treasured in this room.Duke Eddie naturally shook his head in denial.Through Yuchina's abilities, Owen learns that Duke Eddie lied a total of three times, and quickly locks down three suspicious rooms.Owen then ordered several soldiers to conduct a thorough and thorough search of one of the rooms.As he watched the soldiers rummage through the room, Duke Eddie couldn't help but break out in a large cold sweat on his forehead, his face full of worry."
I told you there was no treasure hidden here."
With tears in his voice, he said, "Why don't you believe?
”Soon, the soldier found a suspicious place, which seemed to be a dark compartment.Owen had the soldiers force it open, revealing that it contained many rare gems that were crystal clear, as well as other precious treasures.Seeing this, Duke Eddie let out a scream."
AhhLater, he went to the second room to search, and the soldier found another dark compartment, which was also very rewarding.However, when searching the third room, the soldiers could not find anything suspicious.Continuing to waste time was not an option, Owen had to use the emergency call to contact Winster and briefly explain the current situation to him.
[I see, I can't find the treasure that guy hid.]Leave it to me, I'll be sure to help you find it. 】Winster said confidently.
[Then please.] 】After that, Owen went to the next two rooms to check on the next two rooms according to Winster's request.Through comparison and calculation, he found that between this room and the room on the left was a completely enclosed dark room with no entrances and exits.Upon hearing the news, Owen returned to his room, raised his hand to the wall to the left, and ordered the soldiers to break through it.The soldier quickly found a tool to break the wall and violently smashed it open.After breaking through the walls, a dark room was discovered, which was filled with all kinds of expensive artifacts, such as solid gold scepters, crowns, swords, etc., all inlaid with precious stones, each of which was priceless.The last place where the treasure was hidden was discovered, and Duke Eddie jumped to his feet in anger."
Marquis Eisen, you, you're taking my life!!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he fainted on the spot.At this point, all the treasures in the lord's castle were literally stripped away, and Owen ordered the soldiers to put the fainted Duke Eddie in a dungeon.Now that he has passed out, his trial can only be postponed.The looted treasure will be escorted by Owen's personal guards, and all of them will be transported back to the castle in Frontier Town through the Frontier for storage.It's just that there are so many treasures that I don't know how many days it will take to move them.This lord is backed by a tech tycoon
