When he smelled the familiar scent in the air, Jiang Chen almost couldn't hold back his tears.
Ahem, of course, the haze didn't smell good.
The clock on the wall pointed at 11 o 'clock. It seemed like the apocalypse and the modern world were synchronized. When he left, it was around 11 o 'clock in the morning.
Jiang Chen rubbed his aching temples and took a deep breath.
The SAN value was almost at its limit. He didn't know if he would become abnormal if he stayed there for a while longer.
As a man, Jiang Chen thought he was mentally strong, but he still overestimated himself. Faced with the whistling bullets, heavy machine gun fire, and the dismembered bodies on the ground, although he didn't tremble, he didn't think the mental impact was any smaller than Yao Yao's.
The familiar noise came from the road outside the window. In the past, the noise would only make Jiang Chen feel irritated, but now that he heard it, he felt a sense of familiarity.
Long live world peace!
…
Although Jiang Chen wanted to scream like crazy, due to various concerns, he only stretched his stiff arms and didn't scream like crazy.
The unique restraint of a civilized society – he was afraid of being treated as a retard or a psychopath.
Feeling the heavy metal on his back, Jiang Chen's heart warmed up as he held the backpack in front of his chest.
Gold! I'm rich!
He placed the backpack with the gold bars on the electronic scale. Looking at the needle pointing at seven kilograms, Jiang Chen's heart raced.
That's more than one million!
Jiang Chen didn't know the exact price, but he knew it was around 200 to 300 per gram. Even if it was seven kilograms, 200 per gram would be a huge sum of 1.4 million!
This amount of money was a figure that Jiang Chen, whose monthly income never exceeded 3000, could only dream about. But now, it became a reality.
Such a huge contrast, while he was happy, it also made him feel lost.
[So much money, what should I do …]
[It's enough to buy a car, but buying a house?] [That's about it … No, no, no, if I want to live, I want to live in a mansion.]
[That's right!] [And the entire bank vault!]
But when he thought of the bank vault, Jiang Chen's expression darkened.
[I have to go back to that place.]
[The apocalypse where even the air was filled with oppression.]
Jiang Chen began to hesitate. However, just as he was hesitating, a beautiful figure appeared in his mind.
"I trust you too."
"Don't say anything else, come back soon."
"Sun Jiao …" Jiang Chen murmured the name as he touched his lips.
The warmth of the kiss had yet to fade.
When he thought about kissing, another petite figure appeared in his mind.
"… Also, also, I'm very obedient … No matter what you want me to do, I won't resist …"
Yao Yao … I'm already very happy, I hope you don don't abandon me. Yaoyao … I'm already very happy. I hope you won't abandon me. "
"Yao Yao …" Jiang Chen murmured another familiar name. That fresh kiss, although a bit abrupt, was also imprinted in his heart.
Suddenly, Jiang Chen laughed and threw all the depression to the back of his head.
"What am I thinking … I am not a loli lover." Jiang Chen laughed and jumped up from the bed.
[Let's make lunch first.]
[Then I'll get rid of the gold.]
[As for buying a house or a car, I'll live in a mansion. If I want to buy a car, I'll buy a luxury car.] [I can't buy a house worse than the one I picked up in the apocalypse.]
[The entire bank vault is mine!]
[As for the money?] [Haha, I'll enjoy it first!] [Since I'm back, I'll relax first.]
Jiang Chen hummed a tune as he walked into the familiar kitchen. He picked up the knife that had dust on it.
[I'll make a tomato scrambled egg for lunch and then have a feast at night!]
He made up his mind to spend all the money. If he didn't do that, it would be hard for him to muster up the courage to go back.
[Getting used to it requires a process.]
…
After lunch, Jiang Chen returned to his bedroom. Other than the gold, he also brought the holographic computer and pistol.
In fact, he didn't want to bring something as troublesome as a gun back to civilized society. After all, if this thing was seen, he might have to go to jail.
In Celestial Empire, guns were controlled weapons. Jiang Chen didn't want to make too much noise. It was enough to quietly get rid of the gold and be a millionaire. He came back to enjoy, not to cause trouble.
As for the holographic computer, Jiang Chen only brought it to watch a movie. The owner of the electronics store promised that the 100 terabytes of movies were all top-notch. Jiang Chen was excited to see what it would be like to watch a movie on a holographic computer.
As he thought about it, Jiang Chen pressed the start button of the holographic computer.
A delicate holographic screen was projected from the pen-shaped part. The interface made of light particles looked even cooler than Sun Jiao's.
[It's a high-end computer.]
Jiang Chen couldn't hold it in anymore. He immediately opened the folder named movies and quickly selected the first movie in the list.
However, the scene that appeared made him dumbfounded.
"Mhmm, mhmm, harder …"
The blood-pumping scene was directly projected into the room. The "screams" no less than a real battle scared Jiang Chen so much that he immediately turned off the computer. The sound could be heard from upstairs and downstairs.
Jiang Chen forced a smile and reopened the computer. His finger slid through the progress bar. This time, he finally saw the names of the movies.
[What the fu * k, what are these?] [It's all porn.] Jiang Chen finally understood the ambiguous look on the owner's face.
If it was before, Jiang Chen would probably masturbate to the men and women in the movie.
But now … it was a different world.
Ahem, after tasting the wonderful feeling from Sun Jiao, Jiang Chen was no longer interested in the kind of activity that only one person could enjoy.
He threw the holographic computer pen on the bed and prepared to leave with the seven-kilogram backpack. Before he left, Jiang Chen hesitated with the pistol in his hand. The pistol was given to him by Yao Yao. It was the pistol that saved his life. After thinking for a moment, Jiang Chen suddenly remembered his storage ability. He slapped his head and threw the pistol and bullets into the storage dimension.
Other than the slow startup and the "fee" for storing and storing, the storage dimension was quite convenient. Especially since Jiang Chen didn't lack money. No, he didn't lack crystals. He only needed around 10 crystals to fill the energy slot of the bracelet. Storing and storing something the size of the pistol would consume less than 1% of the energy slot.
As for the EP, Jiang Chen didn't take it off. Since it was hidden in his sleeve, it didn't look strange. The ergonomic design didn't feel restrictive at all. Even when he showered, he didn't need to take it off.
After locking the door, Jiang Chen left his low-rent apartment and stepped into the city full of sunshine.
…
The mottled shadows of the trees swayed on the cobblestone road. It was June in Wanghai City, and the sound of cicadas lingered in Jiang Chen's ears. After standing on the bustling street for a while, Jiang Chen finally recovered from the inexplicable trance.
Everything here was filled with a sense of déjà vu, but it formed such a sharp contrast with that messy world.
[How should I put it …]
Although he only spent a few days in that world, everything in that world formed an indelible impression in Jiang Chen's mind.
In a trance, the plain cobblestone road was replaced by a cracked cement road. The mottled shadows of the trees were reduced to a few branches. Jiang Chen covered his forehead and took a deep breath to expel the unhealthy feeling from his head.
[Looks like I need to relax. How long will it take before I go crazy?] Jiang Chen laughed at himself.
Suddenly, from the corner of his eyes, he caught a glimpse of a cicada lying on a tree to avoid the heat.
He didn't see cicadas in the apocalypse, but a cockroach was the size of a wolf.
Jiang Chen once again threw the strange thought out of his head. He stopped a taxi and began his journey of cashing in gold.
There was no need to think about the bank. Jiang Chen didn't have an invoice for the gold. Not only would the workers not accept it, but they would also report it to the police. The more famous gold stores were a good choice. They had the ability to buy the gold without worrying about a lawsuit.
He only needed to make some concessions on the price. Since the gold had no cost, Jiang Chen didn't care about the price.
Jiang Chen got out of the car at Jinlilai Gold Store. The reason why he chose this place was because of the name. Since it was Jiang Chen's first time selling gold, it didn't matter which store he chose.
"Hello sir, are you looking for a ring for a lady? We have … "As soon as Jiang Chen entered the door, the sales lady greeted him enthusiastically. Although Jiang Chen was dressed like a country bumpkin, maybe he was a hidden nouveau riche? Years of work experience told her that the more powerful one was, the more low-key they usually were. Of course, those who were powerful to a certain extent wouldn't come here to buy jewelry.
"Do you take gold?" Jiang Chen raised his hand to signal the sales lady to stop before he got straight to the point.
The shop assistant was slightly taken aback, and her professional enthusiasm faded a lot in an instant. However, she still answered politely.
"We buy gold here, but we only buy the purer ones. If you need …"
"Call your manager over. You can't make the decision here." Jiang Chen interrupted the sales lady with a smile. With the amount of gold he was going to sell, it wasn't something that the sales lady could make the decision for.
The sales lady was slightly displeased, but she was afraid that her colleagues would use the opportunity to make things difficult for her and say that she offended the customer. So she suppressed her anger and went to inform the manager. She didn't believe that this country bumpkin with a sports bag on his back would come here to discuss business.
She could already foresee the dejected expression on the "country bumpkin" when he was thrown out of the door by the security guard.
…
Liu Anshan gasped when he saw the gold in Jiang Chen's backpack.
He had worked at Jinlilai for almost 20 years. It wasn't that he hadn't seen gold being sold, but it was the first time he saw someone carrying it in a backpack.
Seven kilograms of gold. After the appraiser nodded, Liu Anshan coughed and smiled at Jiang Chen.
"A total of 7122 grams. The purity is pure gold. Sir, do you have the receipt?"
"No." Jiang Chen stared into Liu Anshan's eyes and said straightforwardly.
Liu Anshan paused for a moment before he signaled the appraiser to leave. Only the two of them were left in the room.
"Forgive me for being blunt, but Mr. Jiang's gold must have come from an unusual source." Liu Anshan's eyes flashed. The processing of the gold looked like it came from a bank. But the gold purchased by a bank usually had an invoice, and Jiang Chen didn't have one.
The gold must have come from an unusual source, so Liu Anshan only asked tentatively.
"Don't worry, it's just not recorded in the country. The source is absolutely normal. This is my payment. "Jiang Chen raised his eyebrows and said emotionlessly. He wasn't lying. It was the result of his labor in the apocalypse.
Liu Anshan wasn't someone who didn't know the world. The aura Jiang Chen exuded made him uncertain.
Using gold as payment? Could it be an international mercenary? No, that's ridiculous.
Jiang Chen let Liu Anshan think as he didn't explain further. He took a sip of the tea on the table and looked at Liu Anshan.
"Mr. Liu, are you interested in this deal?"
"Yes, of course. Mr. Jiang, hehe." Liu Anshan laughed. "But, you don't have an invoice for the gold, so we can't …"
"7122 grams of gold. Based on 220 RMB per gram, the total is 1566840 RMB. I'll round off the difference and settle at 1.5 million. I'll take the extra money as your tip, how about that? The current price of gold is 270 RMB per gram. You won't lose anything from this deal, right? "Jiang Chen played with his smartphone as he threw out the proposal.
He had just checked the price on the Internet in front of Liu Anshan.
Jiang Chen didn't believe that this old fox didn't have a way to sell his goods. At most, he would just give him some profit.
"Hehe, Boss Jiang, I'll do as you say." Liu Anshan was shocked by Jiang Chen's offer. That would be a profit of one hundred thousand, so he immediately accepted the offer. "Do you want cash? Or transfer? "
"Transfer." Jiang Chen gave him the number of the bank card he used to collect his salary. When Jiang Chen received a text message indicating the successful transfer, the deal was completed.
When Jiang Chen left the VIP room, the sales lady was shocked to see her boss personally walk the country bumpkin to the door. He even welcomed him with a smile. It was the first time she saw such a strange thing. Her mouth was so wide open that an egg could fit inside.
But Jiang Chen didn't care about the expression of an insignificant person.
"Mr. Jiang, this is my business card. If you have business next time, don't forget about me. "Liu Anshan had a smile on his face as he made one hundred thousand in a few minutes. Jiang Chen guessed correctly. It wasn't difficult to get rid of the gold with his connections.
With the quality of the gold, he could even skip the refining step. He could just file it and sell it at the gold exchange. Of course, the filing process would need to be completed. Or he could just sell it to the gold shop under his own name.
Also, compared to the gold, Liu Anshan was more interested in the long-term benefits, so his attitude toward Jiang Chen was respectful, at least on the surface.
It was for this reason that he gave Jiang Chen his business card.
Jiang Chen didn't say much as he accepted the business card. After saying goodbye to Liu Anshan, he hailed a taxi and left.
Liu Anshan's eyes narrowed as he watched Jiang Chen leave.
He was hesitant about whether or not he should find someone to keep an eye on Jiang Chen. He had a feeling that the person who sold the gold without blinking must have more than this. The bigger part was definitely yet to come!
If he could find out where he got it from …
Greed flashed across Liu Anshan's face, but after a moment of hesitation, his thick eyebrows loosened as he returned to the store.
Let's wait and see. Better safe than sorry.
