False Court
Chapter 34 Getting Rich
Lan Xi's mouth was slightly agape. She had always held Su Mo in awe. Now that she came to her senses, she realized he was actually quite handsome.
Su Mo squatted down, gripping the handle with both hands. He turned his head to look at Sun Duo Xiang and the others.
"What are you guys standing around for?"
"Coming, boss."
Sun Duo Xiang and the others immediately went up and grabbed the other handles.
"One!"
"Two!"
"Pull hard!"
Su Mo adjusted his breathing. When he shouted the last word, he burst forth with strength.
"Ah~~It's no good, boss, I can't pull it!"
Sun Duo Xiang and Zhang Hao pulled with all their might, but it felt incredibly heavy.
"Give it your all."
Su Mo's pupils constricted, and blood vessels appeared in his eyes as his muscles further expanded.
"Understood!"
Sun Duo Xiang and the others went all out, gritting their teeth until they almost broke, using every ounce of strength they had.
Creak~~
Finally, with everyone's effort, the gate made a teeth-grinding friction sound as it was slowly lifted.
"A little higher."
Lan Xi reminded him nervously.
"It's still not high enough? I can barely hold on anymore."
Sun Duo Xiang and the others were red-faced, with veins popping out on their foreheads.
Su Mo took a deep breath, let out a roar, and pulled even harder.
The gate was raised a little higher again, and Lan Xi gritted her teeth, flipping and rolling inside.
"Let go!"
Su Mo shouted at Sun Duo Xiang and the others, then released his grip.
Bang!
The moment they let go, the gate fell again.
Sun Duo Xiang and the others lay on the ground, panting heavily, their chests rising and falling, unable to calm down for a long time.
"Phew, boss, there's something I don't understand. What's the point of letting Lan Xi go in? She can't possibly open the gate, at most she can see what's inside. And if there are monsters inside, Lan Xi will be done for."
"If you guys had put in a little more effort and completely lifted the gate, would I need her to go in?"
"Uh... boss is right, it's actually pretty good that Lan Xi went in. She can check what good stuff is inside first. If there's anything good, we can find a way to bring more people."
......
Time passed minute by minute. After Lan Xi went in, there was no reaction, and she didn't run to the door to report what was inside.
Sun Duo Xiang couldn't sit still. He paced back and forth, muttering to himself.
"It's been so long, is there anything or any monsters inside? She should at least give us a reply. No reaction for so long, could something have happened?"
"Sigh~ Sure enough, women are unreliable..."
......
Su Mo was very calm and didn't react at all.
Just then, there was a loud bang.
The heavy gate slowly rose.
Sun Duo Xiang and the others were a little dumbfounded. The gate was actually open.
"I knew you were talking about me behind my back."
Lan Xi complained grumpily.
"No, no, how did you open the gate?"
"Of course I couldn't open it. I found the backup power supply. Hurry up and come in."
"So lucky, there's such a thing?"
Sun Duo Xiang was also a little dumbfounded.
"Go in, close the door."
Su Mo walked in and simply said to Lan Xi.
"No problem."
Lan Xi replied happily. In fact, she had been very nervous when she entered the storage depot. She was afraid she would mess things up, but fortunately, the result was not bad.
"Wait for us."
Sun Duo Xiang and the others quickly ran in.
Su Mo walked softly in the storage depot, cautiously observing his surroundings. Since the emergency power supply was activated, only the emergency lights on the walls were lit.
Of course, there were also many cameras on the walls, but they probably weren't working.
In addition, some shriveled skeletons could be seen, all wearing uniform military uniforms. Su Mo approached, squatted down, and carefully inspected them. There were no signs of zombification.
Sun Duo Xiang and the others closely followed Su Mo, not wandering around.
After Su Mo finished checking, he stood up and looked around.
The storage depot was square, with a two-story structure and a small lift in the central area. There was nothing special on the first floor, except for an emergency diesel generator in the corner.
"No way, there's nothing here."
Sun Duo Xiang was a little discouraged. He had put so much effort into running here, but it seemed like they were going to return empty-handed.
"Yeah, isn't this a military storage depot?"
Zhang Hao replied regretfully.
"Let's go down and take a look."
Su Mo didn't answer them. Instead, he walked straight to the lift.
Lan Xi and the others quickly followed. Su Mo pulled the mechanical switch next to it.
Click!
The lift began to descend. When it descended to the second floor, rows of wooden boxes and Leopard tanks covered in dust came into view.
Sun Duo Xiang and the others were so excited that their mouths were slightly agape.
"Heavens!!!"
"This, this is really an armory!"
.....
Compared to Sun Duo Xiang and the others' excitement, Su Mo didn't show any joy. Instead, a hint of disappointment appeared in his calm eyes. This world definitely had technological products beyond his understanding, but the level of this military storage depot was too low.
"Boss?"
Sun Duo Xiang and the others looked at Su Mo expectantly.
"Open all the boxes."
Su Mo said calmly.
"No problem."
Sun Duo Xiang and the others were waiting for Su Mo's words. They skillfully took out tools from their backpacks and pried open the boxes.
Click!
After some violent disassembly, the boxes were opened.
Brand new QBz-171 rifles were exposed.
"We're rich!"
Sun Duo Xiang and the others became more and more excited as they opened more boxes.
Su Mo leaned against the wall, arms crossed, quietly watching them busily unboxing, his heart without any waves.
Soon all the boxes were opened.
Sun Duo Xiang rushed to Su Mo diligently and said to him: "Boss, I've roughly counted. There are a total of five new tanks here, but they have no fuel. Twenty boxes of QBz-171 rifles, each box has five rifles and corresponding magazines, and there are more than a hundred boxes of bullets."
"Yeah, I know."
Su Mo nodded slightly.
At this time, Lan Xi asked with some confusion.
"We can't find a single gun outside, how come there are so many here?"
"It's very simple. Can you see guns in reality? Aren't they only available in specific places?"
Su Mo asked faintly.
"I understand. The former system in this destroyed area was similar to ours."
"That's right."
Su Mo nodded in response.
"These things are not important. What's important is boss, how should we deal with these things, or..."
Sun Duo Xiang looked at Su Mo with glowing eyes, somewhat hesitant to speak.
"If you have something to say, just say it."
Su Mo naturally saw a clue.
Sun Duo Xiang rubbed his hands, and said nervously: "Boss, we can't use so many weapons. Why don't we take some to arm ourselves, and sell the rest? These weapons are very valuable in the early stages, but they will depreciate quickly as the game progresses."
"Sell to whom?"
"We can sell them to the Wuji Guild. Our guild has a good reputation in this regard."
Sun Duo Xiang requested. If he could sell this batch of weapons to the guild, he would have made a great contribution.
"Okay."
Su Mo did not refuse.
