At this time, except for the maids, they hadn't gotten up yet.

Zhao Chuanxin was alone in the living room, and the maid who screamed at him yesterday prepared morning tea and crepes for him.

This is a woman who is at most thirty years old, quite temperamental, wearing an apron maid dress with typical Victorian characteristics, holding a tray, putting down tea and crepes, and smiling at Zhao Chuanxin: "Sir, I'm sorry for what happened last night." We haven't prepared breakfast yet, depending on how early you get up, it's what we eat, and Mr. Pavit said you don't like rolling fruit, chocolate sauce and cream, and I took it upon myself to spread Le Mans pâté and ham for you. ”

Zhao Chuanxin got up early, he obviously didn't sleep all night.

But the spirit is quite sufficient.

He lit a cigarette and asked curiously, "Listen to your accent, unlike the locals, where are you from?" ”

"Sir, I'm from France, and my parents live in the town." The servant asked him, "Sir, do you need to clean up your clothes and shoes?" ”

Servants usually wake up at 6 a.m. and divide up their work.

Some clean the kitchen, scrub the floor and clean it, and some will make a list of the ingredients and utensils needed for the day, and take the lead in making a maid's meal.

[The armed forces of the Bright Oasis are called Nature Guardians, symbolizing the warriors who protect nature and defend peace. They may not love peace, but they always use the natural way to solve problems and contradictions. 】

If a wealthy person from a particularly wealthy family has a cook at home, the cook will check whether the servant has cleaned the kitchen, and even check the cleanliness of the servant's hands, hair, etc.

[Nature's Guardian was surprised and asked: How much?] Can it be bigger? If it's big enough, I can save more gold. 】

What else does Zhao Chuanxin think, that's all?

Pick people's teeth, huh?

[In the Cursed Desert, habitat issues are often a major problem that restricts human reproduction. 】

When serving, the apron must be changed to a white one.

[When they heard this, they shrewdly said: If this is the case, of course they must buy big bricks. 】

When the owner opens the blinds, they will help clean the clothes and boots and simply clean the room.

Freddie Pavit is particular about that.

[Guardian of Nature is interested: Commodity? What goods? 】

[I pointed to the distance and said: Do you see that white line?] It was a border wall built into a glittering oasis. Well, I thought of a great way to make them money and let them herd giant beetles for free for us. 】

[Dudu points to the giant beetle: they will starve to death, even though they don't eat much, they will definitely starve to death.] 】

He ate and drank as he flipped through the Old Gods Codex.

[And the people of my territory only arrived here with a tired face with the giant beetle, under the sun that can almost roast human fat. 】

[Leaving the bustling and fun Rune City, Dudu is unhappy. She looked around blankly and said to me: Fearless pioneers, there is only sand here, and we will die of thirst and starvation here. 】

[I said: I divided the library in advance, and it is on the top floor. 】

[I took the glass out.] 】

[I pulled out another stone brick made of mud trowel gloves: and bargains, such as this one.] When you have it and you build a house, you don't need as much mushroom slime, you just need to fill in the gaps with a little slime and sand, and you can build a tall tower that is large enough for your whole family to live in. 】

Even Zhao Chuanxin was a little surprised.

[I looked up and said, "I have no ill intentions, I'm here to sell my goods." 】

[The craftsman is happy to do this, but he is more concerned with another thing: what about my book?] 】

For example, the French maid in front of Zhao Chuanxin at this time, she was wearing a gray apron, and if she was seen by Freddy Pavit, she would inevitably be reprimanded.

The work apron comes in two colors, one gray and one white.

The gray ones are used for rough work and can be dirty. The white one is changed after doing rough work, otherwise it will be unsightly and unseemly, especially when there are guests at home, it will be humiliating.

They also clean the fireplace, remove the ashes, clean the hearth, and then refill the fireplace with firewood.

[They were shocked that I was able to build a tower in two days, even if the tower was not built smartly, it was not enough to accommodate their subsequent offspring. 】

[The conversation between the two attracted all the surrounding natural guards, and they were also interested in inquiring about it.] 】

Zhao Chuanxin smiled and said to her: "No need, you are busy, I will go out directly after eating later, and you can help inform them when they wake up." ”

[I hugged Dudu: No, I have a lot of food, I dug into the underground river, and we have an inexhaustible supply of water to drink. 】

Wipe......

Zhao Chuanxin never expected that the dreadnought pioneer would have such a sassy operation.

[When they saw me, a natural guardian stepped forward and asked: Where are you from? What are you here for? 】

[I said to the craftsman: You take everyone to work, divide the room, and move the things down. 】

[I said: Small bricks, one copper coin can buy two.] The big brick, the size of three small bricks, only needs one copper coin. 】

[It took me two days to build a tower that was not very regular, I have time to perfect it, but the most important thing for now is to settle the people who are willing to travel long distances with me. 】

Zhao Chuanxin tasted it, and it tasted good.

[The natural guardian looked at it and immediately said: You are from the city of runes? I recognize it, it's worth a lot, and I can't afford it. 】

The good old man of the dreadnought pioneer actually has such a brain?

[I put down the doodoo and went to the border wall of the Bright Oasis.] 】

[I looked at the sparse green vegetation on the other side of the wall, this is the green space on the periphery of the brilliant oasis, it is not luxuriant, but at the other end of the sand wall that blocks the wind and sand, I feel the breath of life, which is the unique wetness of the vegetation, and when I breathe, it fills my nose. 】

[The natural guardian took the brick, looked at it over and over, and knocked it in his ear to listen to the sound. Finally, he put the bricks on the ground and knocked them with his boots, and the bricks were of course unharmed. 】

[I said: I have glass, that's what it is.] 】

[I laughed: Listen to me, that's right, there is a group of people who have followed me to that side, and we are going to survive and settle here. If you want to buy bricks, you can always go over there and find me. You just have to walk in that direction, and it won't be long before you can see a tower erected on the sand dunes, that is my territory, and I have obtained permission from the new Emperor of Runeterra. 】

[The Guardian of Nature said: I will go to you, I will.] But you must know that if you want to go to the Brilliant Oasis, you must get permission from the Lord of the Oasis. Even if you will sell me this brick, I can't just let it go. 】

[I nodded: Don't worry, without your permission, I won't cross the thunder pool by half a step.] 】

I'm talking about their permission, not the Lord of the Oasis. 】

Zhao Chuanxin said that the dreadnought pioneer has also grown, and he knows how to play a little trick.

[I also said: I will not go over the sand wall, but when we migrate, we will take with us a few giant beetles, and they will eat, or they will starve to death.] I'm not going to cross the line, but I need your help with grazing, and I can pay with bricks. 】

[This did not violate the principles of the Guardian of Nature, so he happily agreed: Yes.] 】

[After some haggling, the deal was finally struck.] 】

Zhao Chuanxin wanted to give the dreadnought vanguard a thumbs up.

Clay trowel gloves make stone bricks, it can be said that they are easy to come by, and materials are everywhere.

He took out the expensive glass first, and compared to glass, cheap and practical bricks were more popular among these natural guardians.

There are contrasts, and it's hard not to be tempted.

[Back to the territory, my brother and sister came to me and asked: Fearless Pioneer, what is the name of our territory? 】

[Say without thinking: Pioneer Partner Haven.] 】

Not only did I say this, but I also erected a stone tablet outside the tower and engraved these words. 】

[They were working, and after I put down the grain, I continued to improve the warehouse on the ground floor of the tower. In the future, I will build ten or even a hundred more towers next to this tower, and the towers will be closely connected to each other, and there will be bridges underneath and in the air. I will build a city without walls, but no one will try to conquer it. I love it. 】

In fact, Zhao Chuanxin feels that the character of a fearless pioneer is that he can't be idle, and he is not bent on running around and taking risks.

He writes:

[At night, I inserted the No. 16 eye in the Pioneer Companion Haven to teleport back to Rune City while it was dark, looking for the descendants of the nobles to ask for the remaining manuscripts. 】

Don't build a house and get addicted to it, and delay his business.

Zhao Chuanxin is still waiting for Xingyue to build him an all-terrain supercar.

[As night fell, I teleported back to Rune City in my shadow cloak. 】

[Rune's City of Runeterra's True Vision Crystals have all been dismantled, and it is no longer under the watchful eye of the dictator.] In the city, there is no longer a puppet to be seen, and the new emperor seems to be full of fear of the puppet. 】

[It's convenient for me, I don't have the True Vision Crystal, I'm wearing a Cloak of Shadows, as long as I'm careful enough, no one will be able to spot me.] 】

[I easily infiltrated the home of the descendants of the nobility. 】

[I first removed the Cloak of Shadows to prevent him from discovering my ability to sneak and hide, and then I appeared in front of the descendants of the nobles. 】

[He was taken aback by me, and said to me suspiciously: Fearless Vanguard, you should be in your fiefdom, you shouldn't be here. 】

[I said, "I need the last manuscript of your ancestors." 】

[The eyes of the noble descendant turned quickly, and his face was embarrassed: Fearless Pioneer, that manuscript is indeed in my hand. However, it is a relic of the ancestors, and I can't give it all to you. 】

[The descendants of the nobility are far less loyal and honest than he shows. 】

[I wink: What price do I have to pay?] 】

Another money-paying layman.

[The descendants of the nobles say: Of course, Fearless Pioneer, I know that you are a warrior with countless adventures. When His Majesty the new emperor used the 66th singularity axiom to summon the sun god, he was cursed by the sun god, and his body was tormented by the scorching sun all year round, and he did not dare to give up resisting this torture for a moment. If you happen to have the courage to take another risk and go to the land of the bandits not far from your fiefdom and retrieve a piece of sound-absorbing cold iron ore, I think it wouldn't be a big deal for me to hand over the last manuscript of my ancestor to you. 】

[Xingyue said in my ear: Promise him, we also need sound-absorbing cold iron, and that is very important. 】

[I agreed with the descendants of the nobles to hand over the sound-absorbing cold iron ore with one hand and the manuscript with the other. 】

Zhao Chuanxin suddenly felt a little itchy in his heart.

He writes:

[I left the house of the descendants of the nobility, put on the shadow cloak and disappeared into the darkness, and went to the gem store in the city to take a few gems with me, the kind that didn't give money. 】

Hehe, how can SF Express be fast?

At the beginning, Lao Zhao obtained the first pot of gold from banks in various countries.

But then he doesn't go much to large-scale withdrawals, disrupting the order, it's not a good thing after all, and who will the losses of the capitalists and corrupt officials ultimately pass on? You don't have to think about it to know.

But in Runeterra, it's a different story.

The people of Rune City live or die, it's his business.

[Xingyue instructed me to take the gem, I picked it up, in order not to attract attention and panic, I didn't take a lot, there will be a loss in the gem shop, but the loss will not be too big, so they can just afford it. 】

[Xingyue whispered to me: Go to the insect silk store next to you and take away a batch of insect silk, go to the grain store to get food, and go to the grocery store to get daily necessities......]

[I put on the shadow cloak, stepped on the roots of the desert, and silently wandered in the shadows. It makes me feel guilty and exciting at the same time. 】

[The two emotions are intertwined, and I feel great pleasure. 】

[Because I found that after I patronized one shop after another, and stole under the noses of the shopkeepers and shopkeepers, I no longer had to worry about the food, clothing, and shelter of my territory.] 】

[Thinking that I can come to buy goods often in the future, a sense of security arises spontaneously. 】

Zhao Chuanxin is staggered, I'm afraid he hasn't cultivated a habitual thief?

Those who steal the hook are punished, and those who steal the country are princes.

Maybe the position of the Desert Emperor will be stolen to play in the future?

[I teleported back to the haven of my fellow pioneers, tired and satisfied.] 】

Zhao Chuanxin closed the "Old God Codex".

Drink the red tea soup in the exquisite porcelain cup and get up to go out.

Then he saw Marcus Nkrumah.

Marcus Nkrumah wears a thick outfit, and his two-metre height makes him look like a silverback gorilla.

With a childlike look of surprise on his face, he said, "Master! ”

Zhao Chuanxin smiled and nodded.

Marcus Nkrumah looked behind Zhao Chuanxin: "Is Benjamin back?" I have a cat, and I also grow a lot of nepeta, all of which I bought with my pay, and I'm sure he'll love it. When the cat has a cub, I'll give him one. ”

Benjamin Goldberg is his little buddy.

One is smart, the other is stupid, and no one knows how such two people can become friends.

"No, he still has something to do, and he won't be able to come back for a while."

Disappointment was written all over Marcus Nkrumah's face: "Master, I practice the boxing you taught me every day, you see, roar hahe......"

As he spoke, he waved his fist on the spot, the speed of his fist was not fast, but it was vigorous.

That's the heavyweight.

"Good, good." Zhao Chuanxin was helpless: "I'll teach you to skip rope when I go back, but who is boxing and standing still?" ”

Marcus Nkrumah closed his fist, scratching his head at a loss.

Zhao Chuanxin: "You work, I have to go." ”

……

Hankow, Yokohama Zhengjin Bank.

"Manager, something is wrong." Sweating profusely, Kubogawa broke into the manager's office.

Sawamura Eitaro frowned: "What's the matter, it's all over the place?" ”

Kubogawa was as anxious as his father and mother sitting on the stove: "Our vault has been stolen!" ”

"What?" Sawamura Eitaro couldn't be calm anymore and suddenly got up. "Gone?"

Last time, I still remember the theft of Hankow Bank.

Because the vault was stolen last time, several security guards died in each bank, and the vault was empty, and the subconscious Eitaro Sawamura felt that this time was the same.

"This ......" Kubogawa hesitated, and finally stomped his foot: "You better take a look for yourself, you can see it at a glance." ”

Sawamura Eitaro's face was also covered with cold sweat, and he hurried to the vault with Kubogawa.

Important people from Yokohama Shojin Bank are gathered here.

Eitaro Sawamura was ushered in, and then he saw bundles of bills.

Kubogawa picked up a bundle and handed it to him: "Look. ”

Sawamura Eitaro flipped through in confusion, and his face turned white.

It turned out that only the first and last two banknotes were genuine, and the middle was white paper......

He looked through them next to each other and found that it was basically the same.

"It's over, it's over......" Sawamura Eitaro lost his soul: "What about gold and silver?" Is the gold and silver still there? ”

"Yes, they're still there." Kubogawa's face was full of joy: "I think this time is different from last time, this time someone has been planning for a long time, not breaking into the vault to steal......"

Before he finished speaking, he saw a bank clerk hurriedly running over: "Oh no, no, no, a customer came to the door and said that the silver from our bank was fake silver......

Sawamura Eitaro was furious: "How can this be reasonable, how can our bank issue fake silver?" ”

Out of such a big basket, he was holding back the fire in his belly, so he went out with the staff and met the customer.

When he saw the customer, the anger on Sawamura's face was gone: "Huh? It turned out to be Mr. Yamamoto. ”

It turned out that it was the director of Mitsui & Co., Jotaro Yamamoto, who took the money, a major customer.

Jotaro Yamamoto said with a gloomy face: "I never expected that Yokohama Shojin Bank would deceive its own people!" ”

Seeing that there were other people in the hall, Sawamura Eitaro hurriedly pulled Jotaro Yamamoto aside: "It's all a misunderstanding, don't make a noise first, let's talk in private." ”

"What's there to say, look at this ......"

Jotaro Yamamoto took out a silver ingot that had been melted down, revealing the iron inside.

Eitaro Sawamura: "......"

He and Kubogawa glanced at each other, and suddenly felt that the world was spinning, and then the two of them ran to the back vault in unison.

"Eh, eh, things haven't been settled yet, where are you going?" Jotaro Yamamoto was angry in the back: "It's really rude! ”

Eitaro Kazawamura and Kubogawa can't take care of much.

They returned to the vault and stood in front of the gold and silver, trembling in their bodies.

"No, manager, it won't." Kubogawa didn't know if he was comforting himself, or comforting Eitaro Sawamura, and he was there to break his thoughts.

Eitaro Sawamura stretched out his trembling hand and picked up a silver ingot.

He has been dealing with gold and silver all year round, and as soon as the silver is in his hands, he feels that there is no problem with the weight.

This made him breathe a sigh of relief, and rubbed the silver on the ground.

Then he raised it in front of him and looked at it, and this look made his face bloodless, and his blood was cold.

Kubogawa's face turned miserable: "Fake? Fake? ”

Eitaro Sawamura rolled his eyes and fell down.

Fainted.
