Chen Jin's heart sank.
What the hell?
He was about to plunder a fat sheep, only to find that it was not fat at all. Instead, it was a dead sheep.
There was not much value in plundering it.
Moreover, the radiation detector showed that the intensity of the residual radiation was a bit high, three times that of the normal environment. There was a certain degree of danger, so it was not advisable to stay for too long.
What should he do?
How should Chen Jin deal with a city that had been destroyed by a nuclear attack in the 70th district that was of little value?
Should he continue plundering?
Of course he should!
He had to finish his date even if he had to hold back his tears.
Moreover, Chen Jin had spent more than a month exploring this city. He had put in a lot of effort and sweat to finally arrive at Fort Worth City.
How could he go back empty-handed?
No matter what he would find, he would not make this trip in vain.
"Luckily, this city was not destroyed. There's still some leftover food left in the periphery. I can plunder it.
I'll take whatever I can find. I hope it's not too little. It'll be about the same as in Tereese. "
So Chen Jin assigned tasks to the robots. Except for five robots to stay by his side to protect him, the remaining 46 robots were divided into 10 teams. They rode electric motorcycles and scattered in all directions to plunder Fort Worth City.
As for the items that were worth plundering, Chen Jin categorized them and set their priorities.
The first category was gold, platinum, diamonds, silver, and all kinds of precious stones and jewelry. They were collectively known as "gold, silver, and jewelry" and had the highest priority.
The second category, high-tech information, was the second highest priority.
The third category, weapons, special equipment and tools, and high-efficiency batteries, were the third highest priority.
The fourth category, factories, mines, and power plants. These were facilities that could not be moved, so they were the last.
In short, what Chen Jin needed the most right now was the first category, which was gold, silver, and jewelry. He would bring them back to Earth and convert them into usable wealth.
When he felt that he had enough money on hand, he had so much money that he couldn't spend it all. He no longer needed so much gold, silver, and jewelry.
The priority of the first category would drop, and Chen Jin would raise the priority of the second category. His main focus would be on the technological information of Haierfa.
But right now, Chen Jin needed gold, silver, and jewelry more.
Soon.
The robot squads that were scattered all over Fort Worth City sent good news to Chen Zhao.
"Master, we found more than 800 grams of gold and more than 300 pieces of jewelry and diamonds in a residential area."
"Master, we found more than 2,400 grams of gold, 700 grams of platinum, and 400 diamond rings in a jewelry store."
"Master, we found 18 one-pound gold bricks and more than 20 pieces of necklaces and jewelry in the safe of a luxurious villa."
"Master, we found more than 1,000 watches in a famous watch shop. Do you want to bring them all back?"
"Master …"
This was far beyond Chen Jin's expectations.
Through radio communication, the various robot squads reported their gains. Each of them had gained quite a lot!
Gold, diamonds, and watches seemed to be found everywhere.
This was especially true for the wealthy villas in the west of the city. The robots had only searched five or six villas and found more than 50 pounds of gold … and there were more than 100 villas in the wealthy area.
The wealth of the city of Fort Worth was staggering.
"Could it be …"
Chen Jin could guess why Fort Worth City was so "rich."
"A destructive war has broken out, and the nuclear bomb is coming. As the target, the first thing the citizens of Fort Worth City thought about was how to save their lives, not how to take their wealth!"
"Compared to their lives, gold, silver, and jewelry are all shit!"
"So, the citizens of Fort Worth City fled in a hurry. They probably only brought a few clothes, some water, and food, and stuffed them in their cars. Then, they ran south as fast as they could. They didn't even care about the valuables in the safe."
"Even the local gangsters forgot to smash the shops and loot in the chaos … The situation is completely different from the City of Tereese."
So, Chen Jin had found a great bargain!
Not only that.
On the second day of the search, the pile of gold, silver, and jewelry in front of Chen Jin was already waist high.
Team No. 5 reported a piece of news that made Chen Jin even more excited.
"Master, we found a vault under the ruins of a bank in the nuclear explosion zone. There was a lot of gold in the vault."
What?
Chen Jin's eyes lit up.
A bank vault, a lot of gold!
He had to go and take a look!
But the radiation in the nuclear explosion zone was even more intense, at least 10 times that of normal environments.
In some areas contaminated by radioactive substances, the radiation intensity would increase by more than a hundred times.
Da Li didn't want Chen Jin to go, saying that it would be dangerous.
As for the gold, he could let the robots carry it over.
"I'm wearing an anti-radiation suit, and I have a radiation detector with me. I'll leave as soon as the readings change. There won't be any danger!"
Chen Jin couldn't hold back his curiosity, so he decided to go and take a look himself.
"Okay, Master. Please keep an eye on the radiation readings," Da Li said helplessly.
On the other hand, Chen Jin hopped into the cockpit of Rover No.1. He brought the five robots to the area where the bank ruins were located, as pointed out by Robot Team No.5.
…
20 minutes later.
Gold bricks with a purity of 999 and a uniform weight of 10 pounds were moved from the safety deposit box of the bank that had been cut open by the laser. One by one, the robots moved them into the large warehouse of Rover No.1.
"124, 125 …" There was even a robot counting the gold bricks.
When the last gold brick was carried into the warehouse, the robot in charge of counting told Chen Jin.
The robot responsible for counting told Chen Jin, "Master, there are a total of 236 gold bricks."
Chen Jin nodded and calculated in his mind.
"One gold brick weighs 10 pounds, so it's about 45 kilograms. Multiplied by 236, it's 1062 kilograms."
"Damn, I found a ton of gold in one go!"
Then there was the gold from the jewelry stores, residential houses, and the villas of the rich.
The total weight of the gold this time was more than 11 tons.
It might even reach 15 tons.
So much gold was brought to Earth. Based on the price of 280 yuan per gram, multiplied by one ton, it would be worth 2.8 billion yuan!
"The small target of 100 million that Mogul Wang mentioned has finally been successfully achieved!"
Chen Jin was very excited. He had high hopes for the City of Tereese, thinking that he could achieve his small goal of 100 million dollars with the help of this city. In the end, he only made about 18 million dollars, which was not what he had hoped for.
Fort Worth had been hit by a nuclear bomb, and the prosperous city center had been destroyed by the high-temperature shockwave. Only parts of the periphery could be looted. He didn't expect that it would bring him such a big surprise.
"Haha, it's not a wasted trip. It's definitely not a wasted trip!"
Looking at the small wall of gold bricks in the warehouse, Chen Jin couldn't stop smiling.
