After listening to Yang Jing's explanation, Gege laughed again, "Hearing what you said, I now think this armor is really beautiful. Alas, it's a pity that this set of armor was not worn by Philip V. If Philip V had worn this set of armor, then the value of this set of armor would have increased a lot."
Yang Jing smiled and scratched her nose, "Girl, you are obsessed with money and can't get out of it."
"What do you mean it can't be pulled out? It looks good. Don't you admit that this set of golden armor is beautiful?"
"Okay, okay, you are absolutely right. This set of armor is beautiful and valuable, how about we give it away?" Yang Jing retreated immediately.
"Hey, Yang Jing, I remember that the Palace Museum seems to have a collection of the golden armor that Kang Mazi wore back then, right?"
"Well, there is indeed a set of golden armor collected in the Forbidden City, but that set of armor is a little different from this set of armor. The set of golden armor collected in the Forbidden City is called Kangxi Chainmail Gold Leaf Armor, which is the chainmail armor worn by Kang Mazi back then. This set of armor is plate armor. The value of the golden armor worn by Kang Mazi lies in the gems inlaid in it, and the gold used in this set of golden armor must be more than the one worn by Kang Mazi. This is plate armor, the favorite of warriors and paladins!"
Gege stuck out his tongue, "Well, you even have Warcraft coming out."
In addition to these gold coins and gold products, there were also some emeralds scattered on the ground.
Latin America, especially northern South America, produces emeralds. After the Spanish ruled America, they plundered many of these precious gems from local Indians.
Just like this treasure, besides a large amount of gold, there are only these emerald gems. It can be seen that after Bartholomew plundered the port of Trebasi, he only selected the most valuable things and asked Bodman to hide them here for backup, such as gold and gems. As for those things that were not precious, Bartholomew must have brought them with him, such as silver coins and copper coins. Of course, it is unknown whether Bartholomew also brought gold with him.
While the two were chatting, Chris led five bodyguards to pick up all the gold coins, gold utensils and gems scattered in the cave. There were more than 2,000 gold coins in total, which were packed into two suitcases and then slowly divided up when they got back. There were not many emeralds, but they were also packed into two suitcases, with a total weight of more than 40 kilograms. As for the gold utensils that took up more space, they were all put into several larger weapon boxes. Of course, this set of gold armor was also carefully placed in the weapon box, which was filled with plastic foam.
After using ropes to pull all the boxes down, several people slid down along the ropes.
After loading all the boxes onto the helicopter, Yang Jing said, "Guys, you've worked hard. Now that you've discovered Bartholomew's treasure, what are your plans? I mean, do you want cash or a share of the treasure?"
Hearing this, several people looked at each other in bewilderment. After a long while, Chris said, "Boss, the main credit for finding this treasure this time goes to you. We just helped to clean it up, so we don't have much credit. Besides, we are your bodyguards, and doing these jobs is what we should do, so we don't think we are qualified to receive compensation."
The others nodded, and Clark said sullenly, "Boss, actually, for us, the reward is secondary. We prefer the fun of the treasure hunt. Being able to find the legendary pirate king's treasure with our own hands is the best reward for us."
Yang Jing smiled and waved his hand, interrupting the momentum of the other people who wanted to speak, "I know what you think, but I think your idea is not appropriate. Let me tell you, the treasure discovered this time is roughly estimated to be worth about 200 million US dollars. The gold is not very valuable. The key is that there are many precious gold coins and some gold utensils in it, such as the set of gold armor just now. If it is auctioned, 50 million US dollars is just the starting price."
When several people heard the price, they couldn't help but stick out their tongues.
"So, guys, you should be paid accordingly. Let me give you some cash from my account. These things in the treasure are not very useful to you, and you don't have any channels to cash them out, so I think it's better for me to give you cash directly."
After a pause, Yang Jing continued, "Let's put it this way. According to the rules of this industry, you should get a 10% commission. I'll convert your commission into cash, which is about 20 million US dollars. The six of you will get 2 million US dollars each, and the other eight who didn't come with you will get 1 million US dollars each. Linzi, you will also get a commission of 2 million US dollars. Okay, don't think it's too much, and don't think it's too little, that's it."
When they heard what Yang Jing said, they were all delighted. Who doesn't like green dollars? They put their heads on their belts all day long, isn't it for these green Franklins?
Two million US dollars is nothing to Yang Jing, especially after Zhao Meng cashed in part of Gaddafi's treasure. Now the money in Yang Jing's account is just a number to him.
But for Chris and his team, this amount of money was equivalent to their salary for three or even four years. Among these bodyguards, Chris and his team had the highest salary, which was $750,000 a year. The eight people including Morris who had just joined had an annual salary of $500,000.
