Chapter 1708: Distribution and Traveling the World
But reality was cruel.
Luke had already made things worse, but Selina grabbed the dog’s head and said, “You don’t believe me? If you don’t, we’ll raid their nest.”
The dog lowered its head and refused to listen.
Selina, however, pinched its ears again. “Are you dumb? It’s not like they’ll carry their loot around with them. This might just be their harvest for today. The bulk of it must be in their nest.”
The dog hesitated for a moment, before it finally surrendered to the temptation.
Luke had no objections.
Two people and one dog immediately set off, and soon found the criminals’ nest dozens of kilometers away.
With Luke and Gold Nugget around, the criminals couldn’t hide their scents. This was definitely their territory.
Luke took the lead and killed the remaining five criminals.
Thankfully, he had told Selina and the dog head to look for the treasure first.
/
Less than five minutes later, the dog ran back to the boat with a big box on its back, and barked proudly.
Luke smiled. “Let’s get out of here first. We’ll take stock later.”
The boat leisurely set off back the way it had come.
As it turned out, Selina was right.
Relying on its keen sense of smell and its armor, the dog head had taken out a large bag of gold and raw gemstones from the criminals’ nest. The total worth was almost a million dollars.
Gold Nugget forgot how it had only made 200,000 to 300,000 dollars after a tiring week of diving for treasure, and was once more immersed in the wonderful feeling of having made a fortune.
However, it preferred shiny things to begin with, and was drawn to gems > gold > cash – the condition, however, was that the things had to be valuable; it wouldn’t be fooled by glass baubles.
Selina wasn’t interested in gold, but in the colored stones, especially in their uncut state.
The uncut stones gave her a strange sense of satisfaction.
But the condition was that the gems had to be big and beautiful.
So, one person and one dog couldn’t bother with eating as they sterilized the stones and began to split the loot.
Selina’s actions were swift. “Yours, mine, yours, mine.”
Gold Nugget suddenly stretched out a paw to stop her from taking an amethyst. It tilted its head and whined.
Selina coughed and said, “You don’t have a favorite color, but you know that I like red.”
Gold Nugget looked suspiciously at the pile of green, blue and yellow in front of it.
It then looked at the purple, pink and red colors in front of Selina.
Shouldn’t dogs be colorblind? Selina mumbled to herself as she quickly moved the paw away to continue distributing the loot.
After that, she didn’t dare give herself all the good-looking ones so openly. She gave the dog head the gold first, and kept the gems for herself.
Luke enjoyed his tea and enjoyed the show of the dog head being tricked.
In any case, they weren’t going to sell these. They were just toys, and their value wasn’t important.
…
After this windfall, Luke’s 10-day deadline arrived.
Two people and one dog put on their armor and headed north to Columbia at night.
After that, they switched to new identities and took Gold Nugget to play all around South America.
South America was absolutely a “super large game instance” for Luke.
In the 1980s and 1990s, Columbia produced the world’s most famous drug cartels — the Medellin and Cali cartels — and monopolized 80% of the drug market in America at their peak.
It wasn’t until they pissed off the United States and were beaten up that they gave up that position to Mexico.
There was the famous Silver Triangle made up of Peru, Bolivia and Columbia; the Andes in Brazil; and the Amazon jungle. Peru was also the biggest production center.
On the other hand, other countries such as Ecuador, Venezuela, Guyana and Suriname were big distributors, and had drug traffickers who transported several tons of illegal drugs every year.
Further up were Honduras, Guatemala, the Dominican Republic, Haiti and Jamaica.
The countries and territories here were only the size of soybeans on a world map, but were ripe for harvesting experience and credit points.
Luke was mainly on holiday, but it wasn’t hard to choose a few bigshots in major cities to meet their maker.
After all, taking appropriate action every now and then was healthy for his growth.
…
After visiting South America, they flew to Africa, crossed the Strait of Gibraltar from Morocco, and visited various European countries.
After that, they entered Asia from Turkey, then made their way through Saudi Arabia, Beirut and Israel before entering Russia.
It was April by then, and Luke took Selina to see the cherry blossoms in Japan, before they finally entered China.
When two people and one dog arrived in China, sightseeing was secondary.
After all, they had seen all kinds of magnificent views in the last six months.
The only thing they could never get tired of was the pursuit of delicious food.
Compared with his previous life, Luke had to conscientiously eat his way through the country this time.
He couldn’t remember the names of the dishes, but he still had some impression of the restaurants and specialties from food videos he had watched before.
The three of them ate their way from north to south. Every day, their mouths never stopped moving as they thoroughly satisfied their cravings.
Even Selina couldn’t help lamenting, “I thought you were absolutely a chef, but now, it seems you’re still not good enough.”
Luke was lost for words. Is that my problem?
China had eight major cuisine types and all sorts of snacks and specialties; nobody would dare say that they could clear this level!
There were no “all-rounder” chefs in China who could cook any two of the major cuisine types to the highest level in the country, and these were already all super bigshots in the culinary world.
There were just too many types of dishes.
It was also for this reason that it took the three gluttons two months to eat their way through just half of China’s food, and that was after Luke had already simplified things and chosen “all-encompassing feasts” which covered all eight cuisine types.
As for the rest, they didn’t have time, and could only wait for another opportunity to come again.
After all, they couldn’t stay in China for years just to eat, and never go back.
They had teammates and Luke had his clones.
However, their families would check in with them from time to time, and friends would contact them during the festive seasons.
Since neither of them were using their real identities at the moment, they naturally couldn’t say that they were eating and drinking their way around the world.
Robert and Catherine had spent time around America and in Western Europe, and had even encountered a mutant giant octopus on a cruise.
Selina’s parents had just come back from a 10-day trip to Mexico.
If they knew that Luke and Selina had gone off to play with the dog, the two would definitely be taken to task when they went back.
Luke and Selina were currently using the excuse that they were “surveying the company’s future market development” with their families, which sounded very professional.
This trip, no, this “market survey” took the two people and one dog half a year.
By the time they flew back to Los Angeles from Shanghai, it was already the end of June.
