Chapter 1140: So It's So Valuable
In the west-central part of Nut State, near a small town, several military vehicles are patrolling back and forth.
Since a horrific massacre broke out in this town a month ago, the entire town has been placed under martial law by the troops of Nut State, and no one is allowed to approach it.
The engineers of Nut State worked day and night to build fortifications in the vicinity, using steel wire and strong fortifications to enclose the entire town, making it a veritable military exclusion zone.
Most of the people don't know why, but the true face of this place is no secret to those who have a heart.
It's a rusty gold mine.
A truck pulls out of the mine, passing through several heavily guarded gates.
After much verification, the communicator came with a command from the front:
"The van is out, open the door!"
The soldiers then opened the heavy gate and let the wagon out.
In front of and behind the trucks, there were several chariots, escorting and opening the way.
The truck drove all the way forward, and the dark cargo box was very low-key, and if it was a passerby, I am afraid that it would be unexpected, and there were boxes of rusty gold ore hidden inside.
In the driver's seat, a young driver was asking his companion, "Chief, where are we going to transport this thing?" ”
"You'll know when the time comes." The driver muffled.
"But I've heard that the place we transported to before has been occupied by monsters, and everyone who went in couldn't get out...... Is this true? ”
"......" the driver was silent.
"Chief, don't you know?"
"Shut up, don't you think your curiosity ......"
Before the driver could finish his sentence, he heard a bang, and then the world spun around.
By the time he woke up from his drowsiness, he found the vehicle lying on the ground, the tip of his nose filled with the smell of blood and gunsmoke.
"Boom, boom, boom!" The shouts of the soldiers mingled with the sound of gunfire and explosions.
The driver turned his head to look at his side, and saw the co-pilot's head drooping, not knowing life or death.
"Hey, lad! Wake up! **! ”
The driver struggled to unbuckle the co-pilot's seat belt, desperately kicked open the shattered front windshield and climbed out of the car.
Nearby, several bandits dressed in black rushed over, their guns pointed at them.
"We're just drivers, don't kill us!" The driver clutched his head in fright and screamed.
The man hesitated for a moment and put a gun to the driver's head: "Open the car!" Fast! ”
"Carriage...... It's locked from the inside, I can't open it! The driver trembled with fear.
"Damn it!" The man scolded.
The firefight broke out again, and the driver dragged his companion to the side of the road, shrank aside, and desperately hugged his head.
It seems like a century has passed.
The booming explosions and firefights continued, and when someone pulled him up, he realized that it was all over.
"Hey, get up!"
He was roughly dragged up and found in front of him a soldier with blood on his body.
There was a mess all around, with dead soldiers and the bodies of looters.
And his truck, with a large hole in the side, was billowing smoke billowing from it.
It seems that these people still got rid of the truck after all.
"What about the losses?"
"A box of ore was robbed!"
"A box? How much ore is in it? ”
"About ten kilograms."
"So much? **! Where the hell did these people come from? Check it out for me! Be sure to chase the ore back! ”
Later, a new truck came, and more than a dozen sealed boxes were loaded onto the new truck.
The box was really small, and it looked a little bigger than a handbag.
In one alley, only ten kilograms of ore were loaded.
But the driver knew that the things that were robbed exceeded 100 million nut coins!
That's definitely a lot of money!
Because it's filled with rusty gold ore!
In the international market, there is only one place that can provide a stable supply of rusty gold, and that is White Wolf City.
The price of the rusty gold supplied by White Wolf City to the outside world is 10,000 nut coins per gram.
Of course, this is only the official price, and in fact it is rarely sold to the public.
And on the black market, the price of a gram of rusty gold has been speculated several times.
Even so, there is no market.
Even rusty gold ore, which is not so pure, has a price of more than 8,000 nut coins in blackstone.
Especially recently, Mao Xiong State has begun to release words and frantically purchase ore, and this price has begun to soar.
But where does the ore of rusty gold come from?
Now it's only found in this part of the nut state.
Almost every day, there are armed men who take risks to rob and attack the convoys of escorts.
If you can snatch a box, you will be stable for the rest of your life.
If you can snatch a few more boxes...... I don't have to fight for the rest of my life.
……
In Xiajia Village, Daqiang is watching TV in a wheelchair.
Since the release of "Brew Man", Daqiang has become a hero in the village.
And there are all kinds of media flocking to them, wanting to interview, which makes Daqiang annoyed.
Fortunately, someone intervened later, so that these reporters no longer bothered Daqiang.
However, Daqiang was reluctant to go out, he used to hate the strange eyes of the villagers, but now the reverent gaze of the villagers made him unbearable.
Now, it has been a long time since the release of "The Brewer", although it is still screened all over the world, and almost every day the number is shown on the news, saying how much "The Brewer" has surpassed at the box office, and what record has been broken somewhere......
However, this world is forgetful, and almost two months have passed, and the outside world's attention to Daqiang has gradually disappeared.
Daqiang can finally live a peaceful life again, and he can occasionally go out.
It's just that most of the time, he still stays at home and has become a veritable otaku.
If before, Daqiang himself didn't believe that he would become an otaku, but now this is the case.
It was a little late, Daqiang looked at the time, and it was time to sleep.
As soon as he was about to turn off the TV, another piece of news caught his attention: "A few days ago, there was a robbery in Nut State...... Military convoys were attacked...... Unknown ...... of current losses"
"Experts said that the looting of rusty gold ore in Nut State should be rusty gold ore, and the current price of rusty gold ore on the black market remains high, and the official price of rusty gold is as high as 10,000 nut coins per gram......"
"This thing is so valuable?" Daqiang was speechless, he really hadn't paid attention to this before, "By the way, I have to hide my dagger." ”
Daqiang felt his dagger and put it in a drawer.
After thinking about it, I still didn't feel at ease, so I locked it in the cabinet again.
That's reassuring.
"Daqiang, have you slept?" Outside the door, the voice of the strong mother came.
"No, what's wrong?"
"Tomorrow, your uncle's cousin will bring the child to live for a few days, saying that it is to experience rural life, and you will get up early tomorrow ......"
"Got it." Daqiang didn't take it seriously, lay down on the bed, and soon fell asleep.
The moonlight shines quietly from the window, shining on Daqiang's table, next to the photo with his comrades, a rusty ornament is placed there, more than 20 centimeters tall war giant dog tramples, at the feet of the war giant dog, a small person rushed forward desperately, his expression was lifelike.
