The French government wants to know what happened to the treasure found on the ships. They've been following these cases for a while, but they haven't been able to prove anything. Maybe they should start reporting on these cases and bring the truth out for all to see. They don't have the resources to do this themselves, so they're going to have to hire some journalists to do the reporting for them. If the governor doesn't want to do anything about the treasure, then the general will do the job for him. He's not sure if the congress will do anything, but he'll try to get the governor to do something. The only thing worth a hundred thousand dollars is a couple of guns, so he's going to take the guns back to the city of hangzhou and organize a military parade.
