Chapter 129: A Gang of Thieves
Rich to rival the country.
It is definitely not an exaggeration to say that all the gold, jewelry, jade and porcelain sunk in the ocean have been salvaged, and their value is absolutely an unattainable astronomical amount.
But this is only an ideal situation, because a large amount of gold jewelry is in existence, which will have a huge impact on the current gold jewelry market, leading to a decline in prices, which is almost inevitable.
Scarcity is expensive, even if it is an ancestral urinal, if it is the only one in the world, it is still valuable.
Money is a good thing, Lu Zheng likes it too, but he won't deliberately live for money. He wasn't a dragon king before, and he always maintained this opinion.
The more the merrier, but never force, let alone take risks for money.
As for the salvage of wrecks, the state controls it relatively strictly, and the waters near the Zhoushan Islands are well-known areas for the protection of wrecks, and the legislation prohibits illegal fishing.
In fact, Lu Zheng knows the meaning, and the reason is very simple, because the country currently has no conditions and no technology for salvage.
To give an inappropriate example, this situation is like a person who finds a box of jewelry buried in front of his house, but has not been on Lan Xiang, and does not know how to drive an excavator, it just so happens that other people also know that he is afraid of others digging up, and the only thing he can do is to erect a 'no digging, who digs and cuts whom' sign, and when Lan Xiang graduates, he can dig it away.
Lu Zheng doesn't have an excavator, but it doesn't matter, he has a group of elite troops under his hands who are organized and disciplined and proficient in tunnel warfare, and they can be taken away without knowing it.
The handful of gold coins in his hand is almost a catty, that is, 500 grams, according to the current gold price, the value is 100,000, the purity is not high, and the actual price is higher than 100,000.
It came very easily. It's just that Liu Neng has made a handful of it, and it's just the rhythm of picking up money. Not to mention the 200 boxes of gold on the Taiping Wheel, if it is true, then the income is hundreds of millions in minutes.
At eleven o'clock in the middle of the night, Lu Zheng returned to Zhoushan City from the seaside and came to Zhoushan East Road, ready to have some supper and feel the local customs of the island city.
As soon as he heard that he was going to eat and drink in the night market, the owl jumped out first and expressed strong concern. And skillfully possess the eyes to instigate the white fox. Although the Dragon Palace is good, it is too depressed, and the white fox also looks at Lu Zheng with watery eyes, and uses his cute magic skills.
As a youkai, he has a great longing for the bustling city of mankind.
As a man, there is no resistance to this kind of criminal nature of selling cuteness.
So Lu Zheng waved his hand and authorized them not to enter the Dragon Palace this time, and went to the night market with him. The fox and the owl are a little strange, though. But it's not a protected animal, at most it attracts attention.
In view of the owl's instability, Lu Zheng was about to say a few words, and the owl quacked with joy and shouted: "There are three good in summer." Beer barbecue wears less. Haha, it's finally my turn to appear!"
"Remember, you're just a regular owl right now. ”
"No problem!"
The owl landed on Lu Zheng's shoulder, staring at a pair of innocent eyes. The mouth made an old hen-like cooing sound.
At this point in time, it is the most lively time, plus many colleges and universities near Zhoushan East Road. Although it is already summer vacation. But there are still a lot of students who stay, run night stalls, and earn tuition.
The night market was bustling and very lively, with a white fox in his arms and an owl on his shoulder, Lu Zheng, who attracted a lot of attention, most of them felt novelty and didn't pay too much attention.
I found a night market stall and just sat down. The boss greeted him with a smile, glanced at the owl on his shoulder, and said in surprise: "Yo, this is a night owl, right? Young man, you have a personality, what should you eat? Do you want two of the newly caught big yellow croaker? ”
"Boss, it's my first time in Zhoushan, you look at some good snacks. ”
"Jellyfish, fish gelatin, bamboo shrimp, dried fragrant, smoked fish fillet, a plate of Jintang plums, three draft beer, it can be regarded as our Zhoushan people to pick up the wind and wash the dust for you. ”
Eating delicious snacks, drinking refreshing draft beer, and looking at the crowded night market, Lu Zheng suddenly felt that this kind of hustle and bustle unique to human society also has an indescribable charm.
Great hidden in the city.
Maybe it's really like what the white fox said, building a big house by the sea, guarding the sea, and not leaving the noise, is a very beautiful life.
In many myths about the dragon king in China, there are many legends about the dragon king turning into a mortal and walking in the world. It's not that the Dragon Palace isn't luxurious enough and not beautiful enough, but there is too much fun that can only be felt in the human world.
Guarding the mountains of gold and silver alone, it may not feel better than now.
In layman's terms, it's down-to-earth. Wen Qing said that it is to feel the noise of life and realize the meaning of life.
"Poof, haha......"
A small voice came, and the owl, which had been pretending to be a dull bird for a long time, did not know what it saw, and let out a loud laugh, but fortunately it covered its mouth and was not seen.
Lu Zheng glared at it and said in a low voice, "You shut up for me." ”
The owl covered with its wings, leaned into his ear, and whispered: "I really couldn't hold back just now, oops, a fool vomited, got under the skirt of the aunt opposite, and was slapped in the face...... Haha......"
The white fox, who has always been very well-behaved and obedient, couldn't help but turn his head to look, and it happened to see the aunt pulling the young man's ears and scolding the hooligans.
"Poof......" The white fox covered his mouth with his paw and laughed snickering.
These two living treasures are like children who come out to shop for the first time, constantly looking around, and they are indeed very curious about human society.
This may be one of the reasons why youkai work hard to cultivate and want to become an adult.
"Catch the thief!"
I was drinking draft beer when I remembered with a shout. The crowd in the night market suddenly became commotion, and an old man with a weighing pole in his hand ran over from the opposite side.
Lu Zheng raised his head and glanced at the crowd, but only saw the old man running alone, beyond that, there were bustling crowds everywhere, where were there any thieves?
The old man ran a few steps, fell, sat on the ground and cried: "My money, my money......!
Two young girls surrounded them and asked with concern, "Uncle, what's wrong?"
The old man's wrinkled face was full of tears, and he raised his dry hand to wipe his tears, and then he breathlessly said: "The money I sold melons, and the money from selling melons was stolen." ”
"What about the thief?"
The old man cried bitterly, beat his chest and said, "I don't know, I'm asleep." I saw a dark shadow, and I couldn't see anyone when I got here. ”
Two kind-hearted female students hurriedly helped him call the police, and after the joint defense team arrived, they finally figured out the ins and outs. It turned out that this old man pulled a cart of melons, more than 4,000 catties, and rushed to Zhoushan City with his wife to sell them, and sold half a cart of melons for a day, earning more than 1,000 yuan.
Seeing that it was the middle of the night and no one was buying melons, I cleaned up the stall and laid the futon directly in the car body to rest, preparing to continue selling melons tomorrow.
But I didn't expect that after sleeping for less than half an hour, I felt that the pillow was moved, and when I woke up, I saw a black shadow jumping out of the car, turning around and running.
Where can he catch up at his age, he can only watch the thief burrow into the crowd of the night market.
The old man's family is very difficult, for the two children to go to college in other places, the children know the difficulties of the family, working outside to earn tuition during the summer vacation, the old man is not idle, with a bad leg and foot wife out to sell melons, hoping to earn more money, help the children reduce pressure, improve life.
More than 1,000 yuan is not a lot of money, but for these two old people who get up early and are greedy for black legs and feet, losing it is even more uncomfortable than stabbing them.
Looking at the old man who was crying bitterly and was extremely sad, the people around him felt extremely angry.
Even the white fox was full of anger in his eyes, and said: "This thief is so hateful, even such a poor old man is bullied. ”
The owl couldn't help but say angrily: "I've never seen such a brazen person, I really should have plucked my skin and cramped, put it in the oil pan and fry it." ”
Lu Zheng didn't speak, falling into silence.
It was not suitable to use mana during the dragon sting period, but he still slowly mobilized a trace of dragon energy, cast a secret technique, and began to swim along the slippery road.
The old man was taken to the police station by the joint defense team members to investigate, and Lu Zheng suddenly looked like a sneer, and a few sneers appeared on the corners of his mouth.
Got it!
In the alley behind a nightstall, an obscene figure squatted under the eaves, a cigarette in his mouth, smoking casually, took out a shabby cloth bag from his arms, filled with bits and pieces of banknotes, and began to grab the tickets and check them.
1479 pieces of eight cents.
The man stuffed the money into his pocket, threw the cloth bag away, smoked a cigarette and walked through two alleys into a private house. The lights were on in the house, the room was smoky, and a group of half-sized children were huddled together around an old computer to play games.
"Second brother, how is your luck today?"
Under the light, the kid took out the ticket from his arms, and said with a smile: "It's okay, less than one thousand and five." ”
Lu Zheng instantly understood that this was a gang of thieves. (To be continued......)
