Chapter 198 The Great Gold Robbery
Qi Mu has been in a very bored state since he returned to Changshan County to work.
He worked as a programmer and a computer repairman in the county hall, responsible for repairing the only computer in the entire county hall.
This is so boring.
Apart from occasionally using Lin Wen's computer to download some study materials and play games, he would wander around and satisfy their curiosity about the mysterious Dragon Group agents.
But gradually, everyone realized that he was just an ordinary person and was not so curious about him. Officials from all walks of life also thought that he was probably in charge of logistics.
For example, repairing computers.
As for his job, no one here cares, and no one even knows what it is.
Although life was boring, it was very stable. He had a good income, free food and accommodation, and he had some free time at work. He had made a few friends and they often went out for snacks at night, chatted and drank, and he lived a very comfortable life.
He even thought about bringing his parents, sisters and younger sister over. After all, the housing prices here are very affordable. If he moved a 120-square-meter house to Yaojing, where the value of the property has skyrocketed, he might not even be able to afford a squat toilet.
The first batch of commercial residential buildings will also be completed next year. If I save some money, I can buy another one for my parents and sisters.
Although this place is a little poor, a little remote, and has fewer goods, it is full of vitality and has a stable and peaceful order. As long as you don't dream of a life of extravagance and decadence, you can live comfortably.
And it is developing. As far as Qi Mu feels, there are obviously more businesses around in this period of time.
Especially near the County Hall, several streets are full of businesses and the lights are not turned off until 1 a.m.
Qi Mu often drinks and eats barbecue nearby. He can see people coming out of the County Hall at all times. After getting to know them, he can accurately identify which department they are from, and he can tell how busy they are by their off-get off work times.
Among them, the tea tasting department and the newspaper department were the first to arrive, leaving at 5 o'clock on time. Except for Qi Mu who had nothing to do, no one was earlier than them.
Then there are the tax audit and supervision departments. The personnel department always closes at 9 pm, and after that are the staff on duty from the public security department and the inspection office.
By the time the people from the Long-term Cooperation Department came out, it was definitely past 11 o'clock.
The last ones to get off work are from the Finance Department and the Ministry of Personnel. They almost never get off work until after midnight and go back to work at 8 am.
Qi Mu sometimes felt sad when he saw this. The first person he recruited in Yaojing, the girl from the Department of Mathematics, Tian Jiajia, was now in the Finance Department.
Sometimes he would wait for her at the door, prepare supper, and invite her to eat together.
The invisible goodwill seems to be accumulating, the days just rush forward, and everything seems to be getting better and better.
It is said that mobile signal base stations will be built in the future, and network construction will be promoted on a large scale.
It seems that all the dream life is coming to me unknowingly.
Just when Qi Mu thought that his life would go on like this, one day, County Chief Lin, whom he had not seen for a long time, found him.
At that time, he was playing games in his room. This was the second computer bought by the Ministry of Personnel, and he was responsible for assembling and debugging it.
Qi Mu pulled an Internet cable over to "debug" and was having a great time hacking when suddenly the door was kicked open.
Qi Mu was startled and turned around, only to see County Chief Lin, whose face was a little blurry after not seeing him for so many days.
He was dragging a huge bag and squeezed in from outside the door.
With a bang.
He threw the bag down and said, "Qi Mu, you'll hand this thing over to the Finance Department later."
Qi Mu was completely bewildered: "Ah, ah, okay, okay, County Chief Lin."
With a sneer.
County Chief Lin pulled with both hands, tearing his blood-stained clothes into two pieces, revealing his strong body.
"Get me some clothes."
Qi Mu hurriedly handed over his best piece of clothing.
After changing his clothes, County Chief Lin didn't leave. He came closer to take a look and asked, "What kind of game is this?"
Qi Mu then noticed that his character was being hacked, and he quickly turned around and frantically operated the system, but the screen went dark and he was hacked to death, with things exploding all over the floor.
Qi Mu yelled angrily, "Fuck you." The keyboard clattered wildly as he lashed out at the man.
It took him a minute to realize that Lin Wen was right behind him, and he quickly backed out.
"Headmaster Lin, I, I..."
Lin Wen didn't look angry at all. He glanced at the guy in the interface who was wearing flashy golden armor and carrying a big sword, and felt that he looked very familiar.
"What kind of game is this?"
Qi Mu didn't expect that County Chief Lin was also interested in computer games, so he quickly said, "Blood Moon Legend is currently the most popular online game in the empire. It is said that there are over 50,000 people online at the same time."
Lin Wen glanced at the game, which had even more rubbish and exaggerated graphics than the legendary game, as well as the familiar promotional poster. Suddenly, an idea popped up in his mind. He said, "Get me the source code for this game."
Qi Mu was shocked. He didn't expect that his first job would be so difficult.
He hesitated for a long time but couldn't find a word to refuse. He gritted his teeth and said, "Yes! County Magistrate Lin."
Lin Wen said, "If you need people, go ahead and hire. If you need money, go ahead and ask for it. I want to see the complete source code of this game within two weeks at the latest."
Qi Mu was about to answer when County Chief Lin stepped out of the room and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Qi Mu was stunned for a long time before he remembered the important matter. As soon as he stood up, he saw the mask dropped on the ground. He picked it up and saw the words "Tian Dao" written in large letters on the front of the mask.
"What is this? Is it something that was sent over together?"
"That should be it. County Chief Lin gave the order himself, so it must be very important. I'll quickly send all these things over."
"Ouch, why is this thing so heavy?"
While Qi Mu was still thinking about how to move, Lin Wen had already embarked on the journey of moving the gold mine.
This emerging gold mine is located at the junction of Xuzhou and Luozhou, southwest of Changshan County, more than 800 kilometers away, but for Lin Wen, who has activated the [Divine Movement Technique], it only takes more than four hours to reach it.
Based on the documents of the unlucky rich man, Lin Wen soon found the gold mine.
It was a desert with a large pit with a diameter of 800 meters in the middle. The construction facilities such as scaffolding and ladders used in the project had been removed, and it seemed that there was no possibility of a second large-scale mining.
There is a huge warehouse-like building next to the big pit. The lights inside the building are bright and there are guards outside the building.
Lin Wen took a quick look and saw that everything was black.
Since the spell time of [Paper Moon Suspended] which can use optical camouflage has ended, Lin Wen did not want to open a new spell, so he used another spell.
[The Art of the Celestial Ear]
A green spell for the Qi training period, consuming 10% of the spirit, and able to hear sounds from a designated place in the distance. The distance is related to the caster's cultivation level. It lasts for 16 hours in this world's time and can be interrupted.
This spell can be stored. Lin Wen has used it in Longzhou. It is very useful and cheap.
Lin Wen relied on it to easily avoid many searches and save a lot of energy.
The spell now has more than an hour's duration, which is enough.
As soon as the spell was cast, Lin Wen felt as if his ears had thoughts. As long as he focused his mind on a certain place, he could naturally hear all the sounds there, with distinct layers and extremely clear voices.
Lin Wen focused his attention on the distant warehouse and immediately heard the sound from inside.
"That's a bit unfair of you. This is Commander Qin's opinion!"
"So what? The agreement states that our two families will each own a quarter. What do you mean by going back on your word now?"
"Go back on your word? What do you mean by going back on your word?! When we first started mining, you said there were three layers of gold veins, and we could mine three times! What happened? You dug it all up in one go. We expected 100 tons, but ended up with less than 10 tons. And if we refine it again, it's doubtful we'll even get 3 tons."
"Is that our fault? There's always room for error in geological surveys!"
"I don't care. Commander Qin said we'll take half, and you and Longzhou will split the remaining half!"
"Don't go too far! Director Yu is not afraid of your Qin Group!"
What followed was a heated argument. After listening for a long time, Lin Wen finally confirmed one thing: the gold mine was in the warehouse, right next to them.
That's easy.
Lin Wen glanced at the soul and used a spell directly.
Blackstone Dustfall
Tons of coal dust fell from the sky. Lin Wen used [Thousand Miles Voice Transmission] to whisper into a guard's ear, "Brother, can I borrow a light?"
The guard casually said, "Don't you have it?" Without suspecting anything, he took out his lighter and lit it, which immediately caused a dust explosion.
The spectacular fireball appeared before our eyes again.
Eliminate evil and gain good karma +216.
After the fireball ended, the black man and the warehouse were reduced to ashes.
Lin Wen walked closer and saw nothing but a huge, half-melted iron box.
Inside the iron box was gold ore, part of which had been melted, and the sparkling liquid gold was flowing on the ore.
Lin Wen's "ultimate strength" had not yet ended, and he easily lifted the big iron box.
"Too light."
Lin Wen was very disappointed.
The iron box weighs only 15 tons at most, so he only needs to use half of his hand.
"Give me the key points."
Lin Wen lifted the iron box with both hands, put it on his head, and ran back.
It's getting dark.
Lin Wen activated [Seeing Without Eyes] and could instantly see in the dark.
However, in the next moment, a huge golden light suddenly spread out before his eyes.
【Good Karma: 20213】
The fourth magical power is here!
