After chatting with them at Monica's apartment for a while, Locke left Monica's apartment with the breakfast he had brought to Tang Wei.

From their conversation, Locke knew that Chandler's best roommate would soon be in place, but Rachel would probably have to wait a year or two.

In the past year, every time Locke came to New York, he would go to the bar and have a drink and chat with them.

But so far, no quests have been triggered, which reminds Locke of the Fuzhong Mansion robbery and Prosperity Town, as well.

Combined with the tasks he had completed before, Locke had some vague guesses about the rules of how the system would trigger the missions, but it still needed some trying.

"I really didn't expect your custom-made dress to fit so well." Standing in front of the dressing mirror, Tang Wei looked at himself in the mirror and looked up and down.

The dress that Locke made for her was very good, completely showing her advantages, and it was clear that Locke knew her body measurements well, after all, he had carefully measured them with both hands.

In order to prepare for the writer's dinner in the evening, Tang Wei was busy all day, and the stylist arranged by Locke did not let go of any detail, even if she already felt perfect, she still kept making subtle adjustments.

Even after such a busyness, the tension in her heart dissipated a lot.

"So the people who put money into my projects in the past have reaped incredible benefits." At the dinner, the man who was chatting with Locke said this.

Martin Channing in front of him gushed about his investments, letting Locke know that the Ponzi scheme boss seemed to have his sights on him.

Of the $640 million he got from the Fuzhong Building, excluding the necessary 'handling fees', more than $400 million of which was successfully inherited by Locke after being converted into a family foundation, he did not publicize this matter in any way.

Even now, he has successfully doubled this asset, and few people except his stockbroker know that he has hundreds of millions of assets.

But now Martin John's behavior has made Locke have some speculations in his mind, and it just so happens that he plans to spend the whole summer in New York, instead of choosing to travel on vacation like other high school graduates, also to deal with some things.

The tax rate in the United States is very high, especially if you make a profit from the stock market or financial investments, but you are not taxed until you are ready to withdraw it for personal expenses.

There is only stamp duty on financial investment, and there is no other tax, because financial investment is a very risky investment, most of the time it is a loss, if you make a profit, you have to pay nearly half of the tax, so when the investment is lost, do you want to get a tax refund?

"It's a pleasure to talk to you about this, and if I have time, I'll learn more about your fund." Locke said with a smile.

"No problem, I'll ask my assistant to send you these materials."

"Ah, no problem." Locke ended the conversation with Martin Channing with a smile, and then he whispered in Tang Wei's ear, "I think I should fire my current stockbroker." ”

"Fired the stockbroker? Why? Tang Wei was taken aback.

Locke smiled without explanation, and continued to chat with the people he met at the banquet, talking about the economy with men, mocking the government, and talking to them about fashion, art, and in short, all kinds of bragging.

Before he knew it, time passed, and he returned to his residence with Tang Wei in the evening, and after Tang Wei fell asleep, Locke came to Trinity Church again.

The entry was smooth this time, Locke had bought his equipment during the day and dropped directly to the bottom through the rope, he didn't want to step on the wooden spiral ladder that had been corroded for two hundred years.

As for the pipe, he also thought of a way, in fact, it is not difficult, he only needs to know the shape and size of the pipe on the machine, and then it should not be difficult to directly build one.

As for notifying the government of the United States, at least wait until Locke gets all the gold, jewels and other things that are easy to take away from the treasure, and of course it is best to keep the secret alive.

Those large individual works of art may have enough value, but the huge number of works of art is not so easy to hide and sell.

Ordinary small works of art are fine, and they can be sold by moving ants, but large works of art are another matter, and they need to find a suitable place to put them, and it is difficult to explain the source if they want to sell them.

Not to mention how much money can be sold when taken out, the key is that with so many large-scale artworks, if you are not careful, you may face all kinds of difficulties.

Locke may be rich now, but the corresponding connections have not yet been established, and the troubles that come with it may make him scramble.

As for transporting things out, it is not as difficult as imagined, after all, Locke has storage space, especially after discovering this treasure, Locke has expanded the storage space to 5 cubic meters.

According to Locke's idea, it is best to leave these inconvenient things here, saving a lot of possible trouble, even if the treasure hunt expert finds this place in the future, it is impossible to contact Locke.

It's just that the thought that the future may be so cheap for the government of the United States still makes Locke feel uncomfortable.

With this in mind, Locke came to the key port of the pipe, took out the prepared measuring instrument and began to measure, and then combined the keychain and the picture in his memory to draw the pipe bit by bit.

After finally making sure that it was right, he took out the materials and tools he had prepared and got busy.

When the production is complete, Locke puts the pipe in, turns it half a circle clockwise, and then presses it downward, following the action in the movie.

The next moment, there was a creaking, crunching sound of mechanisms starting from within the stone walls, and a new passage appeared in front of Locke's eyes.

At this time, Locke did not light the oil next to the escalator as in the plot, but took out several high-powered lighting rods.

As the treasure room lit up, dozens of large and small bronze, gold, and stone statues and gold utensils were seen at a glance.

This was only a small part, and what caught Locke's attention the most was the location in the middle of the treasure room, where dozens of decayed and damaged wooden chests reflected the light.

It was gold, and diamonds and jewels reflected in the light, and Locke walked over and saw at a glance more than a dozen white diamonds comparable to pigeon's eggs, and a thumb-sized pile of red, pink, blue, and yellow diamonds or gemstones.

In addition, there are a large number of gold coins piled together, stepping on them, Locke actually has a feeling that he is lying on the gold mountain.

Most of these gold coins were minted in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries in various European countries, because of the huge circulation, they are not too unusual, and the antique value is limited.

But there are a lot of them, Locke glanced at it and estimated that there were at least seven or eight tons piled up, and it was worth a billion dollars at least when it was put into the time period that Locke crossed.

Arriving at the place where the gems were stacked, Locke casually picked up a red diamond, looked at it, and felt that it was larger than the largest known colored diamond, which was a 59.9-carat pastel star.

And red diamonds are worth more than pink diamonds, and if they are auctioned in the future, they may even fetch hundreds of millions of dollars.

In addition, there are all kinds of rubies, topazes, and sapphires, and when he sees these gems and looks at them carefully, Locke is even more excited than he is to see those diamonds.

These gems are all good materials suitable for making magic rings, artificial gems cannot be used as alchemy materials, and the gems here are better than the rubies that I bought for six million dollars and used to make the magic ring.

With a wave of his hand, Locke quickly put these diamonds and gems into the storage space, looked at the time, and found that time was running out, so he simply waved his hand again and filled the storage space with gold coins.

Locke then went back the way he came, quickly returning to the entrance through the rope trap, and leaving the church carefully.

If nothing else, Locke will need to go in and out at least a dozen times in the next period of time in New York before he can empty the treasure that needs to be removed.
