So at this juncture, as long as the other gold reserves are notified, they must be in a state of tension.
If there is a slight movement that is not right, it is likely to have a corresponding association!
Suspicious, if you don't enter the vault and check the safety of the gold, you can't rest assured.
Facts have proved that Chen Yang's idea is correct.
After waiting for a while outside the gate of the vault, several Fort Knox staff came to the gate in a hurry under the protection of heavily armed security personnel.
"Jerome, I don't think we should open the door of the vault now! Even if someone sneaks in secretly, he will never be able to open the door of the vault. Isn't it tantamount to helping the infiltrator if we open the door of the vault at this time? busy?"
A middle-aged white man spoke.
"Relax, Brown, with so many of us guarding here, no one can sneak into the vault under our noses, unless that person is invisible. It is enough for the security personnel to guard both sides of the gate.
The reason why I want to open the door of the vault is just to make sure that the gold in the vault is still there.After all, what just happened in the vault under the Federal Reserve Bank must be guarded against.
If there is a problem with the gold in our vault, but we don't know about it, it is a serious dereliction of duty. At that time, all of us related to the vault may be thrown directly into federal prison up. "
The white man known as Jerome spoke up.
"But I still feel that something is wrong. There is so much gold stored in the vaults of the Federal Reserve Bank. It is simply not possible for one person, or several people, to carry it.
Not only would it take a lot of time to transport all that much gold away, but it would also require a very large team, not to mention that the whole process hadn't alarmed anyone.
No matter how you think about it, it's impossible for such a thing to happen.So I think there must be something crucial withholding information from the Reserve Bank side, anyway, for safety reasons, I stand by my opinion. "
Brown said in a deep voice.
"Okay, here I am the person in charge, so do as I ask. You can put forward different opinions, but the priority is to complete the tasks I have given."
The white man named Jerome waved his hands impatiently.
Strongly terminated the debate on whether the vault door should be opened.
Chen Yang stood less than five meters away from the two of them, quietly listening to the quarrel between the two, and then watching the two and the other person, through the input of complex passwords and a series of identity verification measures, open the door of the vault.
A much larger underground space than the Federal Reserve Bank's underground vault appeared before Chen Yang's eyes.
Although he had been baptized by the Reserve Bank's underground vault before, Chen Yang still felt a little shocked at this moment.
Because the gold here is not divided into different rooms one after another like the underground vault of the Reserve Bank. The gold here is all stored in such a huge space.
The visual effect is of course much greater than that of separated gold.
And the gold here... It seems to be larger than the storage in the bank's underground vault.
This is really a bit scary.
After all, all the gold in Fort Knox belonged to the Eagle Country. It was not like a bank vault, which stored a large amount of gold reserves from [-] or [-] other countries in the world.
According to the official data, Eagle Country's treasury gold reserves should only be more than 8000 tons, but judging from the reserves of the underground vault at Fort Knox, the official data is a bit too modest...
After quietly entering the vault, Chen Yang heard the two white men still arguing.
"It's all here, and nothing has been stolen! Jerome, I will truthfully report your decision today! This kind of arbitrariness will not do any good to the safety of the vault!"
The white man named Brown said righteously.
"Brown, you should learn not to be so rigorous in everything. You are not that group of Germans. Although this kind of rigor can make you perform very well at work, it can also bring you a lot of trouble. You should You know, many people don’t actually like you, right?”
While talking, Jerome began to excitedly check the contents of the vault.
The reason why he insisted on entering the vault was that apart from really wanting to see if there was anything wrong with the gold stored here, there was another important reason, which was that Jerome himself wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to have a good time. Admire these treasures in the vault carefully.
Different from several other gold vaults, this vault in Fort Knox not only stores most of Eagle Country's gold reserves, but also stores many other national treasures!
Such as the original Declaration of Independence, the original Eagle Constitution, the original Gutenberg Bible!
Such as the manuscript of Lincoln's Gettysburg Address, such as the English Magna Carta, such as St. Stephen's crown, sword and scepter in Hungary.
These things with unique historical status can even be said to be priceless treasures!
At the same time, opium and morphine worth tens of millions of dollars are also stored in the vault. These things can be put into use in times of emergency in the country, and they are materials of considerable strategic value.
In addition, all kinds of precious chemical poisons, nearly one million carats of diamonds, and other precious items of high strategic value to the country are all stored in this huge underground vault.
Even a person in charge like Jerome would never have the opportunity to come to the vault in person on weekdays to appreciate those treasures that are rarely seen by the outside world.
Therefore, there is such an opportunity now, to be able to open the vault in a legitimate and reasonable way, step into it, and see the true face of those priceless treasures. For Jerome, it is really an irresistible attraction.
This can be regarded as... Fake public affairs for personal gain!
5Chapter 17 The Vanishing Gold
"I am only responsible for my own work, and I don't need other people's likes."
Brown said coldly.
"It makes sense, but how to handle interpersonal relationships is also a university question. Even if it's just to make work more efficient, you should also handle relationships with other colleagues."
While talking, Jerome reached out and picked up a huge, egg-like diamond, and then admired it with an intoxicated expression on his face.
Although over the years, there have been constant voices denying the value of diamonds.
There are also various news constantly appearing, so that the topic of whether diamonds are really worth money has been repeatedly heated up.
But no matter what, this crystal clear gem always has the ability to make people's hearts beat.
Of course, their value cannot reach the level that is sold in the market, but compared to artificial diamonds, this kind of natural gemstone is still valuable.
At least Jerome liked it.
Natural things are ultimately more attractive than artificial ones.
Just like the same kind of ingredients, wild ones are always much more expensive than farmed ones.
"Working at Fort Knox, you don't need to deal with interpersonal relationships. As long as you make sure that the vault is safe, then anything else has nothing to do with me. Now, Jerome, should we go? Now that it's confirmed Everything in the treasury is normal, so we have no reason to stay here."
Brown frowned.
"Wait a little longer, don't worry, the treasury is so big, and it looks fine on the surface, but it doesn't mean that there are really no problems at all. We have to check carefully before we can draw conclusions, right? You are responsible for the meticulous work , why is it not reflected in this aspect?"
Jerome put down the diamond in his hand and said with a smile.
Being able to appreciate these treasures up close and carefully, then these treasures cannot belong to him, and Jerome still feels happy.
Even his attitude and tone improved a lot.
A hesitant expression suddenly appeared on Brown's face.
Although he was very clear that Jerome was just looking at the treasures stored in the vault for a while, strictly speaking, there was nothing wrong with what Jerome said.
So after hesitating for a moment, Brown nodded slowly, agreeing.
As for the other password keeper who came in with the two of them, he remained silent all the time, without any intention of interrupting.
This man was a black man. Although he had a high status among the staff at Fort Knox, he could only serve as a mascot if he was involved in disputes between the same ranks.
There is no way, no matter how much you carry out the affirmative action movement, no matter how much you emphasize that opposing racial discrimination is politically correct, it is still impossible for black people to obtain an absolute equal status with white people in Eagle Country.
Therefore, after climbing to a certain position, really smart black people are not only very good at using the advantages that their skin color can bring, but also very good at going along with white people.
This point also applies to the yellow race living in Eagle Country.
Any person of yellow race who can climb to a certain high position in the system of the Eagle Kingdom has absolutely lost his mind.
Don't expect these black and yellow people to bring much benefit to their racial groups.
Compared with the so-called skin color protests, what they are better at doing is to use their own skin color to gain benefits.
Even if such an approach may cause greater harm to the race, they don't think there is anything wrong with it.
Just when Jerome and Brown began to carefully count the treasures in the vault, Chen Yang also quietly came to the corner of the vault.
What he has to do is very simple. The gold piled up here ranks first in the sequence of his needs, so while those people are admiring the treasure, he will throw all the gold into the subspace under the eyes of those people. expansion.
It doesn't matter if it is discovered that the gold is disappearing out of thin air.
Anyway, in the elevator before, he has left traces that cannot be erased, and this is his ultimate goal. After finishing this vote, he will return to the country immediately, so even if some strange methods are exposed, he will not What danger will be encountered because of this.
Because as long as he wears an invisibility cloak, no one will know his identity.
Besides gold, he is also very interested in other treasures.
It's just those unique things that he doesn't intend to touch.
After all... even if those unique treasures are brought back, they cannot be realized. Otherwise, once these treasures appear in the world, the Eagle Kingdom can easily conduct a reverse investigation through the treasures and finally find him.
Therefore, only those things that do not have unique characteristics are suitable for being taken away.
Such as a lot of opium and morphine!
Even in the current world, he has no need for these two things, but if thrown into the wasteland world, these two things are also of sufficient value.
Not to mention anything else, just its analgesic effect is very precious in the wasteland world.
As for other things, it doesn't make sense to throw them into the wasteland world.
Chen Yang felt that He Jianian would be able to easily produce those rare chemical preparations.
While observing the movements of the Fort Knox staff in the vault, Chen Yang was silently collecting gold crazily.
After the gold enters the subspace, it will be directly absorbed by the subspace immediately, allowing Chen Yang to continue to increase the volume of the subspace that Chen Yang can use!
After a few minutes, at least one-third of the gold in the vault had become part of Chen Yang's subspace, and Brown finally discovered the abnormality in the vault.
"There is a problem! Jerome! The vault has the wrong amount of gold!"
Brown strode towards the gold cabinet that had been looted by Chen Yang. A rather shocked expression appeared on his face. He stretched out his hand and gestured, and then said, "Where's the gold here!? The gold that was originally stored here What!? I remember when I first opened the vault door, I glanced at the entire vault, and I was sure there was gold here before!"
Jerome's attention was finally withdrawn from the other babies, and he couldn't help being startled when he heard this, and then immediately ran to Brown's side.
Seeing that the gold drawer in front of Brown was empty, Jerome's face also changed drastically.
There is no need for memory at all, Jerome is very sure that all the gold cabinets in this vault are full of gold!
So as Brown asked, what about gold! ?
"Brown! Jerome! It's not just over there! I don't know when the gold here...all disappeared!"
The black man who had been silent before shouted out in a panic.
Chapter 548.548 The Disappearing Gold
Neither Brown nor Jerome knew exactly what happened.
The two were very sure that when the vault door was just opened, the gold in the entire vault was absolutely intact.
Although I didn't have time to conduct a detailed inspection at that time, I could still have an overall concept of the overall situation in the vault just by scanning around it roughly.
Even if this concept is somewhat vague and not detailed enough, it is still impossible for almost one-third of the gold in the vault to disappear completely without being detected in advance!
So...gold! ?
The two of them widened their eyes, hurriedly came to the place where the black man was, and stared at the gold drawer in front of the black man with dumbfounded eyes, which also looked empty, and their brains froze for a while.
This is really hell!
However, the weird things didn't stop there.
Just as the three of them began to fall into panic, the remaining gold in the vault also began to disappear rapidly!
Within the line of sight of the three of them, the gold bricks disappeared at a speed visible to the naked eye...
The three of them opened their mouths wide open in unison, completely unable to believe what they saw.
It seems that there is an invisible terrifying monster in the invisible, which is constantly devouring the gold!
Just the three people's dumbfounded efforts, the gold in the vault has almost disappeared!
"Quick! Lock the vault door! Report what happened here! Immediately! Immediately!"
Jerome finally came back to his senses, and he couldn't help but shouted in panic.
He couldn't understand what he saw, nor what happened.
But at least he knew that if the gold in the treasury disappeared abruptly right under their noses, then even if they were very innocent, they would have to bear corresponding responsibilities!
Tens of thousands of tons of gold... If the federal court doesn't sentence them to thousands of years of imprisonment, he will write his name upside down!
