Chapter 167 Niucha Flower Planter (please collect, please recommend) two more 6000 words

It can be seen from here that George V and his chicken thieves, Kai is not bad.

They are still fantasizing about the wealth in the mausoleum, but what they don't know is that it is more convenient for Kai to carry the wealth with him than in his pocket. Isn't the King's Treasure House just for this.

Of course, Kai’s treasury is still not as exaggerated as Gilgamesh’s. Kai has seen Gilgamesh’s treasury, and the wealth in it is the real gold and silver. Kai even suspected that all the wealth in the world at that time was not enough Gilgamesh much.

Dalton and the others have always hesitated and hawed about land property rights, and at the same time kept probing information about the treasure.

In the end, Kay got impatient and directly showed what was called the "King's Treasure House", and then Dalton and the others honestly sold the land to Kai.There is no way, the ability that Kai showed, let them not talk about coveting, they can't even understand this method at all.

I can only give up...

Of course, the British are not good birds. When they had no hope of wealth, they directly opened their mouths. They could see that Kai was determined to get the land there. Since Kai wanted it, and he was rich, very rich, They don't kill for nothing.

Kai didn't talk nonsense with them, as much as they talked, Kai gave them as much.

And Dalton was not polite, and directly asked for 1000 million pounds!Pre-war proportions, gold payments!
To be honest, Dalton dared to speak so black-heartedly because he saw that Kai did not understand the market.Before the war, an ounce of gold was worth £3, 17 shillings and 10.5 pence.The British pound is on the gold standard, and the British pound can be exchanged for gold.

But the problem is that it is now wartime, and the British government has overissued (referring to printing more banknotes), resulting in a sharp depreciation of the pound and a sharp appreciation of gold.

According to the current black market conditions.An ounce of gold can be exchanged for almost more than 100 pounds.And there is no market for the price, because during the war, the United Kingdom implemented special laws, and now all banks have stopped exchanging gold.

So even though 1000 million pounds may not seem like much, it was definitely a huge sum at the time.

To use an intuitive analogy, the purchasing power of one pound at that time was equivalent to 1000 RMB now. Just imagine how much it is.

So Dalton's heart is really dark.

But Kay didn't care, because he did a little conversion and found that even according to the pre-war ratio, 1000 million pounds was only a small amount.

Kai didn't even need to use the treasures in the mausoleum, and he could easily pay with his own private money.

When Kai traveled around the world, he also accumulated a lot of wealth, which was originally planned to be passed on to future generations... but...

When Dalton's black heart spoke, George V shivered aside.He was frightened by his advisors and teachers. Although the manor was huge and well-run, it only cost tens of thousands of pounds. After all, real estate was hard to sell during the war.

But just such a piece of land was sold by Dalton for 1 million yuan...

You must know that before the war, the British military expenditure was generally only maintained at around 2 million pounds.This earned one-twentieth of the military expenditure. (After the war started, of course, it was more than this number. In fact, the British military expenditure during the war has been maintained at about 25 billion pounds per year.)
But when Kai opened the king's treasure house and poured gold on the ground like water in front of George V and Dalton, George V felt that Dalton seemed to be missing.

George V has always felt that the British royal family is relatively rich, but today he really saw what it means to be a big dog.

The living room, which was originally quite large in size, was suddenly filled with gold. If it weren't for George V's agility, he might have been drowned in gold.

Although he felt that he was missing, Ke Kai's unrestrained payment method still shocked Dalton and he had nothing to say.

Money is cowhide!

When Kai reminded them to sign the contract, the two men recovered from the huge amount of gold.Although they were all rich and powerful, it was the first time for them to see so much gold laid out in front of them so intuitively.

After regaining consciousness, George V did not prepare the transfer contract at the first time, but kept promoting the royal family's real estate in London.

During the First World War, life was not easy for Britain, and the royal family was similar.Even the royal family had no choice but to set an example for the nobles to buy war bonds, using their own wealth to subsidize the government, and bought war bonds with blood dripping from their hearts.

Now the royal family's funds are also stretched, so George V also hopes to get a little financial subsidy.

Kai was not very interested in the promotion of George V, but seeing that this guy was a good dog licker, he took out millions of pounds of gold to buy several castles and some real estate in London.Among them is Leeds Castle, known as the "Queen of Castles", which is the best country castle of the royal family.

George V was very happy about this, and even when he was happy, he directly canonized Kai as Grand Duke of the Rhine, which can be regarded as restoring Kai's original noble status.Of course, this Grand Duke is only an honorary title. Kai has neither territory nor salary, nor does he have corresponding political status and power.

Kai didn't care either. If George V really gave him these things, he wouldn't dare to ask for them.After all, as much power comes with as much responsibility, Kai has no interest in taking responsibility for a country he doesn't understand at all.

***********
After chatting with the King, Kay did not immediately return to Leicester's manor.Instead, he lived in St. James's Palace in London, which is located next to St. James's Park in central London, not far from Buckingham Palace.

No matter how indifferent Kai was, George V still remained infatuated and admired him very much, and even strongly asked Kai to live near Buckingham Palace so that he could listen to the great deeds of the ancient knight kingdom at any time.

Kai also stayed because he wanted to know something.

Unlike other royal palaces in the UK, St. James's Palace is built with red bricks, and it is not grand, only the gate tower is a little taller.It can be seen from the architectural shape and the shape of the garden arch that this is a typical British Tudor building.

Kai likes this castle very much. It is low-key and not gorgeous, and it has a very living atmosphere.He even thought about buying it with money, but George V couldn't do anything about it, because many people in the royal family were extremely dissatisfied with the resale of the previous assets, thinking that this would damage the dignity of the royal family, so even if George V wanted to sell it again, he would not be able to do anything. no more.

In the end, Kai could only pay a sum of money to rent this place as his temporary residence.

Kai lived here these days and began to read various books to enrich himself.Especially the information about the ancient country in the east, he is seriously planning to go back there.Even Kai had a plan. His first step before going back was to spend a lot of money to buy back the cultural relics that the British had looted from China from the British Museum.

This can also be regarded as his wanderer from another world, making some contributions to China in this time and space.

But after reviewing a lot of information, Kai found speechlessly that China in this time and space does not need his contribution at all.

Seeing his predecessor in this time and space being so fierce, Kai began to wonder, is it necessary for him to go back?The key is that I still look like a ghost. With the current prejudice against ghosts in the Huahua family, it seems that I will not have a good life when I go back.

A visit from Kottman after that was completely dispelling Kay's idea of ​​going home.

According to Cottman, the big eastern country has always had a bad attitude towards foreigners, so forget it, some honest foreigners can also live there.But it's only aimed at honest ordinary people. As for those foreigners with extraordinary power, don't even think about it.

Kottman also told Kay something to prove it.

Around the middle of the nineteenth century, it was the most rampant period of vampires, and vampires were fighting with the church in full swing in Europe.

At that time, the vampires also thought about expanding to the east in order to increase their strength.At the same time, the church also had the same idea, but the church's approach was a little smarter. They planned to let the vampires take the lead, and then they went to the flower growers to take root in the name of helping the flower growers fight the vampires.

As a result, the vampires went, and so did the church.

And then they all died...

It was suppressed by the local government of the flower growers at that time...

The church sent people to negotiate, but the flower growers ignored them at all. They didn't look down on the church as a non-governmental organization. Of course, the church was not happy, so they organized an expeditionary force, intending to let the flower growers see the strength of the church. At that time, several countries responded As a result, the church's expeditionary fleet was wiped out by a group of pirates before it could approach the mainland.

What's even more embarrassing is that the feudal government of the florists at that time did not know that such an expeditionary force came to trouble them from the beginning to the end.
