Chapter 1199 Poor Captain
After Han Li found the gem and didn't find any mechanism or anything like that, he dived into the sea and swam in.

Even though there was no sea breeze in the cave, when Han Li came out of the sea, his skin suddenly came into contact with the cold air, and he still shivered involuntarily.

When Han Li did not need to swim, he walked upwards and used his mental power to move the topaz, ruby, emerald, amethyst, and black amber scattered in the sea water into the decomposition space.

When Han Li's feet left the water, he had collected about a hundred roughly processed gems, as well as some gold and silver coins.

At this time, Han Li didn't care about the things that had been put away. His eyes were already on the weathered wooden boxes high up in the seaside cave, as well as the treasures scattered around.

Even though many of the unweathered boxes had not been opened, the gold, silver and jewels scattered outside alone gave Han Li a great shock.

Han Li now had some understanding of why those ancient corrupt officials in TV dramas liked to go to their own treasure rooms and silver rooms whenever they had nothing to do.

The visual impact of these treasures piled together is huge and spectacular, so spectacular that Han Li doesn't know what to say at this moment.

Even though Han Li didn't know how many things were in here yet, it was not an exaggeration to describe his mood at this moment as extremely excited.

When Han Li used his mental power to investigate the treasures in front of him, he was no longer so excited.

Han Li took out a parchment scroll from a small iron box at the edge, but he was not in a hurry to read the contents on it.

Instead, he took out a towel from the decomposition space, wiped himself clean, put on his clothes, then took out an iron bucket and some wood, lit them, sat down, and opened the parchment scroll while warming himself by the fire.

Han Li was stunned when he saw the arrangement and combination of the words on the parchment scroll. The content should be written in a very old Welsh language.

Moreover, the content recorded above is seriously misleading, which shows that this person has a very low cultural level.

If he were to be ranked according to the current grade level, he would at most be at the level of a second-grade primary school student, slightly better than those illiterate people.

If Han Li was not fluent in Welsh, it would take some time for him to understand the contents of this parchment scroll.

The person who wrote the account on the parchment scroll was called Elvin Kidd, and he should be the owner of this treasure.

This Elvin Kidd’s age is not written above, but his occupation is the captain of a privateer ship.

It records how much treasure Elvin Kidd got from robbing those ships at sea.

The looted treasures were used to maintain the ship, provide daily food and drink, and also a portion was distributed to his subordinates.

The rest were all hidden here bit by bit by Elvin Kidd alone in a small boat.

The reason why Elvin Kidd hid these treasures was not for the sake of his family's descendants, because he was a commoner and had no family at all.

This story starts with Lord Drake Holden, who was the captain of a privateer ship back then.

Because he had offered enough treasures to the queen, Drake Holden became a noble of Ingolan, thus completely escaping from the class of commoners. Because Elvin Kidd and Drake Holden were both captains of privateering ships, he could roughly guess how much treasure Drake Holden had offered to obtain the title of lord.

This also made Elvin Kidd very jealous of Derek Holden, who became a nobleman. He also didn't want to live a life of being exposed to the wind and sun with his head hanging on a belt every day.

He also wanted to live in a castle, have servants at his disposal, maids to warm his bed, listen to others' flattery, attend various gatherings that only nobles had, and live an aristocratic life that others would envy.

Inspired by Derek Holden's becoming a noble, Elvin Kidd changed his habit of spending money today as he had it and began to accumulate wealth bit by bit.

Elvin Kidd wanted to ensure that he would succeed in one go, rather than be captured and hanged by the Royal Navy as a pirate because of his small number.

He planned to accumulate the amount of treasure to a similar level as when Derek Holden first supplied it to the Queen, and then find someone to help pass the message to the royal family.

This Elvin Kidd left the treasure here for so many years without using it. It is no wonder that he must have died in a robbery or a shipwreck.

Elvin Kidd may not have that much knowledge, or he may be lazy and want to save time, so he did not explain the origins of these treasures, did not classify them in detail, and recorded them in large, medium and small boxes.

No matter who gets this parchment, he will not be able to figure out how much gold, silver, jewels, and ornaments are recorded on it.

Even so, when Han Li saw this and then looked at the treasures piled up like a small mountain next to it, he started to complain.

"Damn, the Queen is really good at this no-cost deal. Elvin Kidd has accumulated so much treasure, but it's not enough to exchange for a title?
I really wonder how much treasure the pirate named Drake Hall gave her in exchange for that lordship?

How many nobles did the English royal family give out because of the tributes they paid during those years? How much gold and silver did they get? This is definitely an astronomical figure."

This parchment scroll contains Elvin Kidd's words of encouragement to himself and his insults to his peers.

After Han Li finished reading the parchment scroll, his body recovered. Next, he should have waved his hand and collected all these things into the decomposition space.

However, Han Li did not do so. He had nothing to worry about right now, and this place would not be discovered by anyone.

Therefore, Han Li planned to watch with his own eyes as these treasures were counted and registered bit by bit, fully indulging himself in the addiction of an ancient rich man, and then put them away after he had satisfied his visual and physical desires.

However, before personally counting the treasures, Han Li planned to use his mental power to go through them first so that he would have a clear idea of ​​the locations of the treasures.

In this way, Han Li can easily register gold, silver, jewelry, finished products and semi-finished products separately one by one.

But after Han Li roughly checked it with his mental power, the excitement on his face disappeared for the most part.

Han Li didn't know whether Elvin Kidd was stupid, had another treasure cave, or was just unlucky.

These piled up treasures looked like a lot, but the value of this pile of treasures was really not high, at least it was much lower than Han Li's initial expectations. Who would have thought that there was actually...
