Chapter 543: A Different Place
Chapter 543 is different
Zhao Chen's movements were very fast, he left here directly, but he didn't go far, but stayed on the roof of this account room, Zhao Chen was still very confident in his stealth technique, there should be no black technology in this world, not to mention that Zhao Chen's own strength was not bad at all.
Even if these people came up collectively, Zhao Chen might not be worse than their strength, so he didn't have to leave so quickly, Zhao Chen was more curious, what kind of way did they find themselves in this account room? Although he said that he directly broke the door lock, and this account room is indeed an important place for each family.
After all, this is equivalent to the bank's vault, which must be very important, but this is not modern, there can be no monitoring, alarm devices and the like, so how did these people find out?
There must be no one near this account room, Zhao Chen was a little curious, so he didn't leave, he wanted to see what the other party relied on to find him, if it was other ways, it would be interesting.
These people's light skills are good, so the speed of coming is also very fast, about a few tens of seconds, and more than a dozen people appeared around the account room.
These people range in age from their forties to their fifties and sixties, and they seem to be dressed, some of them should be from the Zhao family, while others are more like the Zhao family's guards and the like.
When they arrived here, they obviously didn't find Zhao Chen.
"The lock was broken, it was cut by a sharp weapon." An old man in his sixties, with almost gray hair, said with a stern face.
"The speed is very fast, and the strength is definitely not bad, it can avoid the eyes and ears of so many people in our mansion, and directly cut off this spirit rune lock with a sharp weapon, I'm afraid it's not something ordinary people can do."
Rune locks? Zhao Chen raised his eyebrows, sure enough, there was something wrong with this lock, but when Zhao Chen just started, he really didn't look at this lock carefully, but now that he thinks about it, this lock is indeed a little exquisite, but Zhao Chen didn't think much about it just now, in such a big family, it is normal to use some delicate locks.
Some local tyrants in ancient times still used gold as chains, isn't this the same reason? But I didn't expect that there were really some doorways on this lock.
But now that the lock is in the hands of these people, Zhao Chen doesn't know what kind of doorway this is, "Everyone knows the hardness of this spirit rune lock, this is not something that ordinary divine weapons can do, look at it like this, directly cut it in two, even if it is some divine weapons, it is also a divine weapon with a name." Another old man checked the lock and said.
"Report to the master, I have already checked it, and there are more than a dozen boxes of gold and silver lost in it." A person who should be in charge of the accounting department went in and checked it, and then quickly came out and said.
"What about the other things?" A middle-aged man in the middle, dressed in ordinary clothes, but looking dignified, asked.
"I didn't lose it, I just lost a dozen boxes of gold and silver, which are worth about 100,000 taels of silver." The bookkeeper said respectfully.
"That's it?" The middle-aged man asked with some surprise.
More than 100,000 taels of silver may be an astronomical amount for ordinary people, but for the famous Zhao family in the entire Tang Empire, I am afraid it is really a drop in the bucket.
"Yes, this is just our external account room, there are no important things stored in it, mainly some gold and silver, but there are also some other things, but these things are not lost, calligraphy, paintings and antiques are there, but the gold and silver are gone." The ledger reported again.
"It shouldn't be, it stands to reason that the person who can take out such a magic weapon is probably not a person who is short of money, it is impossible to steal things purely for gold and silver, if it is just to steal some gold and silver, although our Zhao family may be the largest in this Los Angeles City, but it is not only our Zhao family who is rich, others are not as strong as our protective ability, and the danger is even less, why would the other party choose us?" An old man next to him asked with a frown.
Zhao Chen, who was listening next to him, was speechless, he wanted to say, you guys are the big tree, okay? And, don't I know about other big families? Only your Zhao Mansion is too conspicuous, and we are also our own family, so it's not wrong to help you.
Seeing that the other party couldn't find himself, and it was impossible for him to see the things in the other party's hand, Zhao Chen thought about it and simply left, leaving here first.
However, Zhao Chen didn't notice that not long after he left, an old man in the Zhao family's crowd who was a little shabby secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but he didn't say anything.
But the head of the Zhao family, that is, the middle-aged man, looked back at the old man at this time and asked, "Elder Zhang, can you take a look?" This lock is also made by you. ”
"I can't see it, but it's definitely a master, but I think what you just guessed makes sense, but I have another idea." The old man said with a calm face.
"What do you think, Elder Zhang, please say." The head of the Zhao family asked respectfully.
"I think that the other party may be a high-ranking person from other places, but I can't say, I don't know about Los Angeles, and it is even estimated that it is the first time to come to this Los Angeles, as for getting some gold and silver, it is estimated that there is a problem, so naturally I will directly find the most conspicuous mansion." Zhang Lao said with a flat face.
The people around were stunned for a moment, and the head of the Zhao family was also stunned for a moment, and then he couldn't cry or laugh a little, but, if you think about it carefully, what the old man said in this chapter is also very reasonable, but what else can they say when they encounter such a thing? If you can catch the other party, forget it, and now you don't even see the figure of the family, then you can only suffer this dumb loss.
Fortunately, this money is nothing to the Zhao family, and if it is lost, it will be lost, as long as it does not cause any huge trouble.
Zhao Chen didn't know this, he had already returned to the outside of the hotel, at this moment Zhao Chen's appearance had returned to the appearance of a young man, no different from those diners around him, after entering the restaurant, Zhao Chen simply jumped a good seat.
Then he took out a silver ingot and threw it directly to Xiao Er, and Xiao Er, who came to receive Zhao Chen, almost lost his teeth with laughter. "Childe, please take a seat." This little second took Zhao Chen directly to the best position near the street window.
Don't say it, this location is really good, this restaurant is the most luxurious in the city, with a total of five floors, and Zhao Chen is above the fourth floor, and behind this restaurant is an artificial lake in the city, there is nothing polluted in this world, so this artificial lake plus a river flows through the entire city, and the lake water in this artificial lake is unusually clear.
There are many people washing clothes and vegetables on the lake, and there are also people boating in the lake, and the weeping willows by the lake are reflected in the lake, which is indeed a sight.
And Zhao Chen's position is the best position, "Bring seven or eight of your signature dishes, and then a pot of the best wine." Zhao Chen threw out another ingot of silver, he had just borrowed so much silver, it didn't cost a little and couldn't live with the Zhao family.
But this time Zhao Chen learned to be obedient, he was afraid that there were some hands and feet on this silver, when he took out the silver, he directly used his own strength to pinch the silver and deform it, using the energy in his body, when the silver was taken out by Zhao Chen, it was rubbed and reshaped, although it was probably a silver ingot, but there were no symbols on the silver before.
It is estimated that only Zhao Chen has this strength, of course, some martial arts masters in this world are estimated to be able to do it, but if you want to do Zhao Chen so simply, it will definitely not work.
Naturally, it doesn't matter to this little two, as long as it's silver, it doesn't matter what it looks like. That's too generous! This drunken immortal building is also one of the best restaurants in Los Angeles, and you often meet some high-rollers here, but it is so cool that Zhao Chen looks like this, I really haven't seen it.
"Okay, Childe, wait a minute, I'll give it to you soon." The little two said quickly.
There are a lot of people on these four floors, everyone is chatting separately, the distance between the wine tables is also very far, but no matter how far away it is, it is only a restaurant, for people like Zhao Chen, there is no difference from being on the same table, so Zhao Chen seems to be looking at the scenery outside the window, but his ears are collecting all the information around him.
When Xiao Er brought the first dish, Zhao Chen also collected a lot of useful information, first of all, this world is really not the earth, or rather, there are some plausible appearances, at least this is the same as ancient China, but this history and composition are completely different.
The development of martial arts in this world is a bit perverted, and I can hear it from the conversations of these people, but not only this martial arts person, but even the official army actually has martial arts to learn, that is to say, everyone is a martial arts master, no wonder this city wall is so perverted.
Maybe the martial arts of these soldiers are not so high, but even if all the soldiers are equivalent to the fourth- or fifth-rate masters on the rivers and lakes, but as long as they know martial arts, it means that the physical fitness of these soldiers is very strong, and with the strict training and discipline of the army, such an army is absolutely very terrifying.
Even, they don't need to know any martial arts moves, as long as they have internal strength to improve their physical fitness, don't go too far, equivalent to one or two times the physical fitness of ordinary people, and then cooperate with the training of the army, this army is absolutely terrifying.
And from the words of these people, in some of the elite armies of the Tang Empire, it is possible that all the soldiers have reached the level of second-rate masters, so this is awesome. The most terrible thing about the army is discipline and training, but now there is still super personal strength.
This is equivalent to being a special forces in itself, and as a result, everyone in this special forces unit is the body of Captain America, so do you say this army is awesome?
