Chapter 138 A Visit

After a long while, Su Mo came to the central district. He walked into an inconspicuous tea restaurant with a sign outside that read: "Closed for Business."

Su Mo walked straight in and ran into Zhang Hao.

Zhang Hao hurriedly said to Su Mo, "Boss, Brother Sun is on the second floor."

Su Mo nodded slightly and walked straight up to the second floor.

He walked to the door of a private room and knocked.

*Creak*

A crack opened in the door, and Sun Duoxiang peered out.

"It's me..."

Su Mo said helplessly. Meeting up was like doing something shady; he was really impressed by this guy.

When Sun Duoxiang saw that it was Su Mo, he quickly opened the door with a smile and said, "Boss, you're finally here! Come in."

Su Mo walked in, and Sun Duoxiang quickly closed the door.

"Boss, would you like some tea?"

"No, what do you need me for?"

Su Mo replied plainly.

Sun Duoxiang quickly took out a notebook and opened it, revealing detailed records of various bills. "Boss, this is the income from all our operations during this period. We have accurate records of everything we harvested, its appraised value, how much we sold it for, the market price, taxes, and how much we gave to the Lin family."

Su Mo glanced at it and found that Sun Duoxiang's records were very detailed, with even the smallest income recorded.

"I won't look at it. I trust your work."

Hearing Su Mo say this, Sun Duoxiang turned the notebook directly to the last page and said to Su Mo.

"Boss, since you didn't specify which materials to keep, I took the liberty of converting all the materials into star coins. The total income is six million star coins. After deducting three million for taxes and one million two hundred thousand for the Lin family, we have one million eight hundred thousand star coins left. This amount includes the value of your previous batch of gene serum."

"Okay."

Su Mo nodded without saying anything.

At this time, Sun Duoxiang quickly took out a large stack of star coin exchange tickets issued by the Federal Bank from the bag next to him. Each exchange ticket was worth 10,000 star coins.

One hundred and eighty tickets stacked together looked quite impressive.

"Boss, here you go."

Sun Duoxiang returned everything to Su Mo without hesitation.

Su Mo reached out and took it, then grabbed a large handful of tickets and handed them to Sun Duoxiang.

"Here."

Sun Duoxiang happily took it.

"Thank you, Boss..."

"There's nothing to thank me for. You deserve it. You've worked hard during this period."

Su Mo wasn't stingy at all.

"It's not hard work. Following you, Boss, we get to eat meat."

Sun Duoxiang replied with a beaming smile. He knew that Su Mo would never treat them unfairly.

"Alright, stop flattering me."

Su Mo was too lazy to call this guy out.

"Boss, will we continue operations later? The area you pointed out to us has been mostly stripped bare. Although there are more wrecks in other areas, their value is not high. Often, we explore for half a day and find nothing."

In his excitement, Sun Duoxiang quickly got down to business. Don't think that the wreckage of Zhi Gu Planet Fortress could be scavenged easily.

In fact, the work was not that easy. It was simple to make a profit, but it was difficult to make a big profit.

After all, it was the wreckage of a fortress the size of a planet, and during the disintegration process, many wrecks had spread out, making the scattered area even larger.

Without knowing the specific location where the good stuff had fallen, it was like searching for a needle in a haystack.

Su Mo pondered for a moment and said, "Don't worry. I'll participate in the exploration tomorrow."

"Okay, okay."

Sun Duoxiang responded happily.

"Don't be happy yet. I need you to do something for me."

Su Mo said suddenly after a moment of consideration.

"Ah, what is it?"

Sun Duoxiang was slightly stunned and quickly asked.

"Help me find someone's family information, the more detailed the better."

Su Mo said simply.

"Who is it?"

"Zhu Qi, a man who sacrificed himself."

Su Mo said in a somewhat somber mood.

"You're talking about Zhu Qi? I know him."

Sun Duoxiang was also slightly stunned after hearing this.

"You know him?"

"He's a subordinate of Lin Ming, and he was quite brave. I'll help you ask about his information."

Sun Duoxiang quickly explained.

"Send it to me when you get it. I'm leaving now."

Su Mo put away the remaining star coin exchange tickets, turned around, and left.

Not long after, Su Mo was strolling along a bustling street in the central district, preparing to see if there was anything good he could buy. Now that his wallet was full, he naturally felt more confident.

Compared to before, the shops along the street were even more lively.

Many merchants were hawking their wares.

"The latest limited edition rare goods from the Hongji Empire have arrived! Don't miss it!"

"Limited edition antiques, jewelry, and clothing from the Hongji Empire's royal family! Guaranteed to let you enjoy imperial luxury! There are also special surprises..."

Su Mo glanced at the samples on display and saw that they really seemed to be from the Hongji Empire.

He walked in to take a look with interest.

They were quite rare, but unfortunately, they weren't anything of high value. However, they were cheap.

There were quite a few onlookers.

In addition to the military personnel and the consortium's development company, there were also many speculators on the Black Yao. Of course, the most numerous were the accompanying family members.

During the long journey, in order to stabilize the personnel on the expedition and to ensure that those on the voyage had no worries,

the Black Yao specially carried a large number of family members.

Of course, there was also a deeper meaning to this, but no one knew it.

That was to prepare for the worst.

Just then, Su Mo's phone suddenly vibrated. He picked it up and glanced at it. Sun Duoxiang had sent him a detailed information file.

He followed the directions on it and walked forward.

Before long, Su Mo arrived at the western corner of the central district, where a small flower shop was located.

A young girl was arranging some brightly colored flowers outside to better attract customers.

Standing next to the girl was a handsome young man who was eagerly trying to help, but the girl seemed to be in a bad mood and didn't pay much attention to him.

At this time, Su Mo walked over and heard the young man talking to the girl.

"Leave this kind of work to me. Don't tire yourself out too much."

"No need."

The girl replied in a low mood.

Just then, the girl saw Su Mo walking towards her, put down the flowers in her hand, and went to meet him.

"Sir, what would you like to buy?"

Su Mo politely asked, "Excuse me, are you Miss Zhu Wen?"

"Yes, I am. And you are?"

Zhu Wen looked at Su Mo in surprise.

"It's like this. I heard from a friend that the flowers you sell here are very good, so I came to take a look."

Su Mo said casually.

The young man standing to the side immediately looked at Su Mo warily. He felt that something was wrong. This guy seemed to have come specifically for Zhu Wen, and he was so handsome.

Even with his handsome face, he felt overshadowed.
