My British Empire

Wilson led the expedition team organized by himself to find Timbuktu, the golden city in West Africa, and brought back nearly 100,000 pounds of gold.

Such a huge amount is almost equivalent to the annual income of the royal family in the past, and it is now higher than the fiscal income of the Irish region.

With such a huge income, the entire London area began to vibrate, and then fluctuated to the entire United Kingdom. What people talked about was no longer the newly established cabinet, but a group of gold seekers in Wilson.

That's right, the Gold Seekers, that's what they were nicknamed, people who surprised and fluctuated the entire United Kingdom.

The huge amount of gold made Edward couldn't sit still, so he hurriedly received the group of gold seekers.

These huge quantities of gold cannot flow into the market, because this will cause inflation in the United Kingdom, and will also increase the chance of private coinage.

In this way, His Majesty the King directly purchased all the gold in their hands with 100,000 pounds of gold coins, thus ensuring the economic security of the United Kingdom.

Of course, as we all know, gold is too soft, and the casting of gold coins requires some other metals to be synthesized before they can be used in the market.

This becomes the profit of minting.

Generally speaking, the income ratio is around 6% to 12%, depending on the conscience of the competition.

This acquisition, even if calculated on the basis of the minimum 6%, has reached a profit of 6,000 pounds, and it was received in a sitting.

Of course, money and gold are things that everyone likes, and the king is no exception.

Thousands of guards are supported every year, which consumes a lot.

The larger head is part of the court reward.

If someone has made meritorious service, he should be rewarded; if he has contributed to the country, he should be rewarded; to reward soldiers fighting on the front line, a lot of money is also required.

Moreover, the allowances for the central ministers and members of the highest joint parliament are also directly paid by the royal family. As the price of goods increases, the amount will naturally increase.

Of course, these are all reasons. The most important thing is that the king likes money and never thinks that there is no shortage of money.

And these crimes are all excuses for the upcoming crimes.

The young king stood on the window sill, looking at the wide river in the distance, with serious and serious eyes:

"It seems that the moral culture of my modern people has been gradually lost, and now I only have money in my eyes!"

Immediately, his lips curled up slightly again:

"Morality, in the sixteenth century, has always been a cloud in front of a country!"

"Especially from the victor's standpoint, all this is nothing more than the primitive accumulation of capitalism, and it is predestined! It's hard to think about it or not!"

"Which form will I appear in future history textbooks? The founder of the British Empire? The king of lolicon? Or the dirty capitalist king!"

In the eyes, the expression is constantly flowing, looking very proud.

"Interesting, I'm really looking forward to it!"

While he was thinking, a huge fleet braved the wind and waves, stepped across the Thames River, sailed into the vast Atlantic Ocean, and headed towards the huge African continent.

The reason why the fleet is huge is first of all to talk about its scale. In terms of the scale of non-governmental organizations, except for the Royal Navy, it is unprecedented in the history of the United Kingdom.

No one civil society can organize such a huge tonnage.

It is composed of thirty-six armed merchant ships, ranging in size from 400 to 600 tons. From a distance, it looks mighty. The artillery on the ship is cold and ruthless. It is possible to open your mouth wide and wait for people to eat.

The number of sailors and soldiers on board exceeds 3,000, and they are all equipped with muskets and exquisitely dressed.

On the deck, the sailors didn't care, but most of the loaded troops were vomiting and diarrhea one by one, guarding the deck, holding on tightly, with their mouths facing the sea, vomiting the food in their stomachs.

And below them, a group of big and small sea fish are jumping from wave to wave, following the movement of the merchant ship, just to cherish this rare food area.

"Ouch—" Robert, who had already vomited three times within half a day on board, was not at all as vigorous as when he first boarded the ship, and did not have the vigor of a young man. He looked like an old man in his sixties, with a loose face and a The whole world is full of despair and decadence, and there is a desire to die.

"Hey! Robert, how's it going? Are you still getting used to it?" Robert felt footsteps sounding around him, and then a sound of needing a beating sounded, which made him feel impulsive, wishing to punch his fist hard and give him a hard beating.

"My Mr. Michael, please don't torture me anymore. Don't you know that your best friend is looking desperate at this moment?"

Robert didn't bother to raise his head, and said helplessly to the owner of the familiar voice.

When Michael heard this, the smile on his face deepened. He showed his yellow teeth and said softly:

"Before boarding the boat, you had a smug face, showing off everywhere, 'I'm the one who wants to get a lot of gold, everyone, wait for me to come back and make a fortune!', but. It's only been a few hours, and you've become a sick cat gone?"

His good friend Michael didn't care about his feelings at all, instead he stuck to his ear and said triumphantly, Robert was so angry that he was about to bite his front teeth.

"Okay, if I had known that taking a boat would be so uncomfortable, I would..."

"What am I doing? Not participating in the mission to the City of Gold?" Michael said with a half-smile.

"How is it possible, for the sake of gold, these are nothing, but you know, in order to obtain this quota, I bribed five pounds! How can it be wasted?"

Speaking of this, Robert raised his head, looked ahead, and said firmly, but after a while, he couldn't help it again and began to vomit.

And on the flagship of the fleet, a 600-ton armed merchant ship, the commander-in-chief Elvis Knight, and the current fleet leader, Mr. Wilson, who made a fortune from the Golden City a while ago, are observing facing the sea.

"Mr. Wilson, I want to know, does the City of Gold have many troops? How much gold can there be?"

"There are definitely not many specific troops, but what you need to pay attention to is that the tonnage of the fleet is too large. I am afraid that you have to follow the small-tonnage ships and move slowly!"

Wilson stomped his feet, feeling a lot of emotion in front of the luxurious ship, but because the White Nile River is too small, the ship is too big, there are good and bad.

"It doesn't matter, let's go all the way. Although most of my subordinates are militiamen, I can still crush those heretics one by one and plunder the cities on both sides of the river!"

"In this way, our trip will be of greater value, and everyone will be able to make a fortune!"

At the end, Elvis Cavalier and Wilson laughed together.

This time, they came here to make a fortune, and morality and morality have nothing to do with them.
