Chapter 40: Open the treasure chest
The situation in the settlement is similar to what Qu Jianlei imagined.
Most of them are low-rise bungalows, with a small number of two-storey buildings and three or four three-story buildings.
The avenue is not narrow, it is about ten meters wide and can accommodate five cars in parallel, but the alley on the side of the road is much narrower.
Xiao Jing has not been to this settlement, but he is still relatively clear about the general layout of the settlement.
The two didn't ask anyone for directions, so they rode around the streets and alleys on motorcycles.
After wandering around for half a day, I found the lively markets in the settlements, mainly in the East and West markets.
To the south is the Regal District, and to the north is the Adventurers' District...... That's the general pattern.
Xiao Jing suggested, "According to this layout, the place where the treasure chest is stored should be in the south. ”
Qu Jianlei also thought so, and he asked curiously, "Xiaojing, your family used to ...... What kind of place is it? ”
"Of course it's the rich area," Xiao Jing had a face towel on his face, and he couldn't see his expression, but he could hear that his mood was a little low.
Qu Jianlei didn't stimulate him anymore, "Let's take a look at the prices of various goods first, and realize them directly after taking the things." ”
The two came to the bazaar.
Although they both wore face scarves and there were many people dressed like this, some people could still see that these two were born.
So someone took the initiative to step forward and wanted to help guide the way, and the lowest price was just a nutrient.
Xiaojing said unceremoniously, "You guys are in the same group as the sellers, I really don't know?" ”
Qu Jianlei looked at this scene and felt a little interesting, in fact, this kind of thing is not unusual, and Lanxing is almost like this.
He was just a little curious, how could this seven or eight-year-old child understand so much?
Think about the children of Blue Star, when they are seven or eight years old, they can tie their own shoes, and they are already considered independent.
It is said that the children of the poor are in charge of the family early, but Xiaojing's family conditions are top-notch.
Maybe...... This is the wasteland.
After roughly inquiring about the market, it was night, and the two had no documents and could not live in the hotel, so they could only spend the night on the street.
Qu Jianlei noticed that there were still many people living on the streets, and some of them were still carrying firearms.
Some of them stared at them with unfriendly eyes.
Finally, he had two knives, one long and one short, and Xiao Jing also had a short dagger, which were deliberately revealed.
Those ill-intentioned guys hesitated for a while, and finally left in a huff.
It is estimated that the cost has been calculated, and I feel that it is a little unworthwhile.
Qu Jianlei wondered: Why can't you see the night patrol?
Xiaojing explained to him: there are too many homeless people, and they can't be found at all.
Therefore, only the wealthy districts have patrol personnel, and the other districts do not pay attention.
Of course, if a gunshot goes out, it will definitely attract guards.
However, this situation is rare, after all, those who can enter the settlement have been verified.
After Qu Jianlei listened, he couldn't help but sigh with emotion, "I can enter the settlement, but I have to live on the streets...... Someone still has guns. ”
The hairless monster replied indifferently, "There are many opportunities in the settlement, and some people have also been brilliant. ”
The rest of the night was silent.
When it was dawn, the two came to a breakfast stall, which was the first time Qu Jianlei went to the restaurant since he came to the wasteland.
The breakfast stall mainly sells processed nutrients, which are mixed with some other ingredients, which tastes better than dry nutrients.
There are also grains that are made early, but not all grains, mixed with vegetables or something - maybe wild vegetables?
There are even those that sell meat, small portions, expensive,
Qu Jianlei ordered a meal of food to make breakfast, and felt that the taste was just like that, and suddenly he had no intention of continuing to try.
After breakfast, they continued to inquire about various market conditions.
After inquiring about it, Qu Jianlei bought two large pieces of meat, and then asked intentionally or unintentionally.
"I have something I want to store in the treasure chest, but I have always rarely come to Hong Wu, how should I go?"
The shopkeeper doesn't doubt him, he can afford to buy so much meat, and his net worth must be about the same, so he just clicks on his fingers.
Qu Jianlei's question is also quite critical, on the road to the rich area, there are cards and guards.
The guard looked at the silver medal and asked, "Do you know how to go?" ”
Xiao Jing replied in an old-fashioned manner, "You can't earn this leading fee." ”
He was choked up, but as he watched them leave, the other guard rolled his eyes, "I'll go make it easier." ”
The guard understood in his heart, and couldn't help but snort, "Keep your eyes bright, some people can't be provoked casually." ”
The other replied with a smile, "You don't have to worry about it, I still know who you can mess with and who you can't." ”
If you don't reveal your identity, you want to get a treasure chest, there must be a saying...... Most likely the silver medal that was picked up, who knows?
Qu Jianlei rode a motorcycle to carry Xiaojing, and within a few minutes arrived at the place where the treasure chest was stored.
It was a store that sold energy blocks.
Within the scope of the settlement, there are no energy blocks produced at all, and those who can afford to open this kind of store have a big background.
Before they could enter the store, someone stopped them and said in a stiff tone, "Untidy clothes, no entry." ”
Not only were they destitutely dressed, but they were also wearing face towels.
This kind of attire is not uncommon in other urban areas, but in wealthy areas, there are very few people dressed like this.
As a rich person, brushing your face is the right way, and hiding your head and brain is too easy to attract the attention of others.
Xiao Jing didn't say much, and as soon as he raised his hand, he showed the secret silver medal.
Someone in the distance saw this scene, their eyes suddenly lit up, and they muttered in a low voice, "Yohe, you're here to make money?" ”
The man who stood in the way also recognized the silver medal, but he insisted, "You are not in your clothes, you are not allowed to enter, and you are waiting." ”
At this point, Xiao Jing will not be able to do it, because he only knows the general situation, and he does not grasp the relevant details.
Qu Jianlei snorted when he saw this, "We want to put a little more things in, do we have to change our clothes?" ”
The other side is not angry, but he does not back down, he is neither humble nor arrogant.
"I'm just an errandist, so why bother me? I'm going to report to the supervisor. ”
This style of speaking is a bit incompatible with the wasteland, and Qu Jianlei even felt a hint of blue star.
After a while, a well-dressed man walked out.
He didn't mind the outfits of the two opposite, the rich man had seen a lot, so he naturally knew that some people really had quirks.
After looking at the silver medal, he was a little stunned, "Fifty years ago...... This is almost due, right? Why don't you come early? ”
Without waiting for Xiaojing to speak, Qu Jianlei said lightly, "It's our own business whether to come or not." ”
The man was stunned when he heard this, and then coughed lightly, "Wait a minute, I'll check if it's due." ”
Qu Jianlei and Xiao Kyoto didn't speak, giving others a look of fearlessness.
After a while, the man came out again and spoke quietly, "There are more than two years to expire, and you guys are really in time." ”
Qu Jianlei didn't bother to say, his chin raised slightly, "Lead the way." ”
The location of the treasure chest is not facing the street.
The man led them into a courtyard, and after three guards, they came to a warehouse.
The interior of the warehouse is very neat, the lights are bright, and the rows of cabinets are neatly arranged.
The man took them to a cabinet and said, "This is the ...... of more than 40 years of money."
"We can guarantee that it has not been touched, but we are not responsible for the changes in the contents because of the time."
"We will judge for ourselves," this is what Qu Jianlei said.
Xiao Jing's words were more direct, "Please recuse yourself now." ”
The director turned to leave, and Qu Jianlei placed the silver medal in the recess of the cabinet, which made an extremely slight tremor.
The shaking lasted for about half a minute, and when he stopped, he raised his hand and pulled, and the cabinet door opened.
The cabinet is not small, but the doors and walls are quite thick, and the space inside is less than half a cubic meter.
Seeing the yellow and clear light emitted from inside, Qu Jianlei and Little Kyoto let out a soft sigh.
It turned out to be a thick two-layer gold bar.
The gold bar had a partition on it, a stack of papers, and a small box next to it.
Take out the documents and take a look, they are all real estate title deeds or something.
The small box opened, and inside was a jet-black ring with a deep pattern on it.
Qu Jianlei didn't think much about it, he directly put the ring back into the box and put it in his arms.
Looking at the two layers of gold, he was a little worried, looking at the volume is not large, but it must be more than a hundred kilograms.
How do I take this?
Gold is very heavy, and it is the kind of weight that is deformed, and it is very difficult to carry.
A hundred kilograms of grain is much easier to move than a hundred kilograms.
After thinking about it, he still walked to the door of the warehouse and beckoned to the supervisor, "Please come over here." ”
The supervisor was just trying to avoid suspicion, but the client called, of course he could follow.
In fact, he was also curious, "What does the gentleman command?" ”
"I need a sturdy bag," Qu Jianlei said with a frown, "I can bear two hundred kilograms and buy it at a high price." ”
The director was stunned for a moment, then replied, "The bag is easy to say...... What to load, is it corrosive, can it be bumped? ”
Qu Jianlei thought about it and led him to the cabinet, "Load gold." ”
When the director saw Huang Chengcheng with full eyes, the corners of his mouth couldn't help twitching, and his face was cloudy.
"That's really ...... The treasure chest of more than forty years ago is now closed to gold trading. ”
Qu Jianlei and Xiaojing were also a little speechless, the current wasteland, gold is indeed a controlled material, and it is illegal to buy and sell.
However, Qu Jianlei doesn't care very much, gold is controlled, but it is not so strict.
He used to be in the garbage dump, and he knew this best, and gold could be parsed from many discarded components.
In the end, the gold did not go through the formal circulation channels, but was still digested by private individuals.
In the final analysis, the forbidden is the prohibition, but the investigation is not strong - the fat sister dares to accept gold.
Thinking of the fat sister, Qu Jianlei's heart twitched again: hundreds of lives...... Die because of me.
Then he couldn't help but get anxious, "Gold can be traded...... Just don't say it. ”
"Gold...... Of course you can trade," the director was stunned for a moment before replying, "It's okay now." ”
He didn't expect the other party to know anything about it, so he seriously suggested, "We accept gold at a fair price." ”
