Everyone indulged briefly in discussing how much treasure the noble families had acquired due to the war and then began counting on their fingers to estimate how much they could get this time.
Counting on their fingers, naturally, wouldn't yield any answers, so when Manbao returned after a round at the medical tent, Governor Duan gathered everyone to divide the spoils of war.
The treasure they unearthed wasn't left outside but was piled inside a large tent, guarded by heavily armed soldiers under Governor Duan's orders.
The soldiers had already sorted everything, gold in one pile, silver in another, fabrics placed aside, with jewels and gems stacked together...
Naturally, the quality wasn't considered, but nobody minded and had no intention of appraising each item one by one. They just roughly counted the quantities, and except for the jewelry that Manbao and his group picked a few personal favorites from, about thirty percent of the rest was roughly set aside.
