Chapter 42 Discovery
[Host, have you forgotten that you have me as a cheat code?]
With a wave of the system's hand, an arrow visible only to Gu Zuozuo appeared on the ground in front of her, the bright red arrow pointing straight at an inconspicuous hole.
[Host! Go there! That place is full of treasures!]
The area scanned by the system was a vast expanse of shimmering gold, making it dizzy and disoriented, especially in places where Gu Zuozuo couldn't see. Its eyes even turned into the shape of a dollar sign (¥).
It recognizes this color! Back then, it led its host to plunder quite a bit from Zhu Qiang's house, but it didn't have nearly as much as it does today!
Gu Zuozuo was already wearing an invisibility cloak, and coupled with her excellent lightness skill, her speed was astonishing.
"Wow..."
Wow!
The two people and the system both had their eyes light up as they looked at the golden bricks that had been melted down.
So many gold bricks!
Inside the cave, which was about 500 square meters in length, width and height, there were boxes sealed with tape. Gu Zuozuo casually opened a few, and they were almost all golden yellow that could blind a person.
No wonder you humans all like yellow! I like it too!
Upon hearing this, Gu Zuo's left hand trembled so much that he almost hit his own finger, and three black lines appeared on his forehead.
Why does this sound so ambiguous? Or is her thinking impure?
The system didn't notice anything amiss with its host. It was practically drooling over the gold. It thought that alien skins and such were utterly pathetic. It was going to buy a gold skin once it returned to the star system!
[Host! Someone's here!]
Having already heard the footsteps outside, Gu Zuozuo quickly and neatly reattached the seal. With a nimble leap, she had already hidden behind the box, squeezing through the gap. The system frantically tried to erase any traces, ensuring that no one would discover its host's large footprints.
"Yamamoto-kun, have you contacted those people? When can these things be shipped back? I'm afraid things might change if we delay."
Gu Zuozuo bit her nails, looking completely bewildered. Oh no, what am I going to do if she doesn't understand?
Because she disliked the people of that country, she didn't actively learn its language. She could understand the simpler ones, since the internet in her later years was full of sycophantic explanations, but anything too complicated left her completely bewildered, like listening to gibberish.
Fortunately, her system plugin was very considerate, directly transmitting the translated content into her ears, so she wasn't completely deaf and blind.
"We've made contact. They'll take over on the other side of the mountain in three days."
He randomly opened a box and saw the golden color inside; the man touched it again and again, captivated by its appearance.
This place truly lives up to its reputation for being rich in resources; a random place I stumbled upon has actually yielded a gold mine! And this gold mine is exceptionally large, with an astonishing output.
And it wasn't just gold mines; they also discovered other minerals. If this news gets back to China, their status in the family will rise even higher!
Gu Zuozuo stood quietly in the crevice, her face growing increasingly gloomy as she listened. These guys were actually the group left behind after the defeat. Because they were dissatisfied, they did not obey the orders of the main force and planned to escape into the mountains to wait for a suitable opportunity to make a comeback later.
They never expected that after losing almost half of their people, they would discover this treasure trove and unexpectedly find a large gold mine!
Judging by the timeline, these people have probably been here for almost twenty years, right? How much gold must they have transported back to that tiny country from here?
The more Gu Zuozuo thought about it, the more ashen her face became. She finally understood why that man had said he would take Ma Guihua and her two children with him. It turned out that apart from her cowardly father, the rest of Ma Zhaodi's family were all mixed-race!
