Chen Zhao prepared supper for the demon pets and planned to sleep.
Black Mammon ate until his face was covered in tears. His mouth was full of meat. "I've already fallen in love with the human world. I'm never going back to Hell."
Just how much did this child suffer in hell?
"Leave some for your brother. Don't finish it all."
Suddenly, a black shadow jumped in. White Mammon's snow-white fur was now covered in dirt and water.
"Master, look, this is what I found. Is this valuable?" White Mammon opened his mouth and spat out a shiny gold bar.
Chen Zhao's expression froze. Gold?!
Chen Zhao picked up the gold bar. It's heavy. It's real gold!
This one should be a standard kilogram.
"Master, there's a lot of this in the place I found, but I can only take one back."
Chen Zhao kicked Black Mammon's butt. Black Mammon looked at Chen Zhao with a wronged expression. "Master, what did I do wrong?"
"Your brother is working so hard to earn money for me outside, but you're just here to eat and drink for free? Come with me. White Mammon, lead the way. "
White Mammon brought Chen Zhao to a lake. It was the lake of the land Chen Zhao wanted to buy.
"You found it here?" Chen Zhao asked, somewhat stunned.
"Yes." White Mammon sprinted beside the lake. He ran to the waterfall and dove into it.
A while later, White Mammon came out with another gold bar.
Chen Zhao couldn't wait anymore. He rushed into the waterfall.
He saw two boxes of gold bars in the cave under the waterfall.
Chen Zhao sat on the ground and counted. There were 400 gold bars in total.
Judging from the craftsmanship, it was clearly not a treasure from decades ago.
Judging from the rust on the boxes, the gold bars had been hidden here for no more than a month.
"White Mammon, are you sure it's ownerless?"
"Master, I can only smell ownerless wealth. If it's ownerless, I can't smell it."
Chen Zhao flipped through the boxes and found many passports.
They were all the same person, but with different names.
Did Trede Pemton hide this here?
Trede Pemton really hid it here.
Should he take it for himself or not?
This made Chen Zhao feel conflicted. This was a huge amount of wealth.
However, this was also the compensation for the victims.
Chen Zhao was in pain. This was the first time he had been in so much pain.
So much money, so much money!
As long as he kept this money in his pocket, he wouldn't have to do anything else for the rest of his life.
"F * ck, I might as well not have found it," Chen Zhao muttered to himself.
…
Fali hadn't fallen asleep the entire time. She listened to the sounds coming in and out of the room. She had no idea what was going on.
After about two hours, there seemed to be movement again.
Fali couldn't help but walk out of the house. She saw that Chen Zhao had returned with the Silly Twins behind him. They also carried two big bags on their backs.
Actually, Chen Zhao could have used the spatial ring, but he was in a bad mood, so he made the Silly Twins do the hard work.
"Chen, you went out to be a thief?"
Chen Zhao threw the bag on the ground. With a crash, it was all gold.
Fali was dumbfounded. "You really went out to be a thief?"
"F * ck … Trede Pemton hid this. I found it."
"So you're rich now? Why do you still look so pale? "
"Bullsh * t. This money is for Trede to compensate the families of the fire victims. I'd rather not have found the gold."
Fali gasped. "You're really willing to give it to them? How much is it? "
"I can't …" Chen Zhao gritted his teeth. "But even if I exchange the gold for money, I don't have the courage to spend it. We Chinese value peace of mind. I feel terrible."
"I'd feel terrible too. How about you keep some of it? That way, you'll feel better."
"Forget it. These shouldn't belong to me." Chen Zhao gritted his teeth and made the decision.
"How do you plan to give it to those people?"
"I'll have David look it up."
Chen Zhao called David. "David, help me look up information on the victims of the winery fire and the people who were injured … I want all the information. Yes, the more detailed, the better."
David searched through the police system and easily found the relevant information.
It wasn't under David's jurisdiction, but this kind of information was shared by all the police in the country. Any police officer could find it.
"Chen, I'll send the information to your phone. You can read it yourself."
Chen Zhao and Fali organized the information together. There were eight victims, four seriously injured, and five lightly injured.
There were 400 gold bars, each weighing one kilogram. Each bar was worth about 36,500 dollars. The total value was about 14.6 million dollars.
The final distribution was that each family member of the victims would get 35 gold bars.
There were 120 gold bars left. The seriously injured would get 20 gold bars each, and the lightly injured would get eight gold bars each.
As for whether this distribution was reasonable, Chen Zhao couldn't guarantee it.
He could only promise that he'd try his best to make sure that it was within his abilities.
…
Under the quiet night sky, a girl around 14 or 15 years old sat by the window, gazing at the stars in the sky.
Suddenly, she saw two huge figures jump into the yard.
The girl saw it clearly. It was a wolf!
The girl screamed in fear, "Mom, there's a wolf, a wolf …"
The girl's mother rushed into her daughter's room. "Abella, what's wrong?"
"Mom, I saw wolves. Two wolves entered our yard."
"Really?" Her mother was a bit suspicious. There were traces of wolves in the woods around Mountain Town, but she'd never heard of wolves entering the town.
"It's true. I really saw them. Two really big wolves, one black and one white."
Her mother carefully opened the curtains. It was empty outside. There was nothing.
However, she saw two bags of scattered things on the ground. They looked like strips of metal.
Her mother walked out of the house. When she took a closer look, she almost had a heart attack.
There were two bags of gold! It really was gold!
"Mom, there's a note."
His mother picked up the note and looked at it. She immediately covered her mouth in disbelief.
This is the compensation for your husband's death. Please accept it in peace. It was written on the note.
"Abella, did you see anyone?"
"No, I really saw two wolves. Really big wolves, but they disappeared in the blink of an eye."
Her mother couldn't help but suspect that it was a human pretending to be a wolf.
Or had her daughter really seen a wolf?
Or was it the Almighty God?
Just then, her mother's phone rang. She picked it up and saw that it was her neighbor, Anace. She'd also lost her husband in the fire.
"Wendy, are you asleep?" Anace asked.
"No, Anace. What's wrong?"
"Did you hear anything in the yard?" Anace asked tentatively.
"Did you also find something in the yard?" Wendy asked.
"You found gold too?"
"You too?"
