But the reality is cruel.
Luke just added insult to injury, but Selina grabbed the shaking dog's head and said, "Don't believe me? If you don't believe me, let's go raid their lair."
The dog lowered its head to indicate "I don't want to listen, I don't want to listen."
Selina grabbed its ears again and said, "You are so ridiculous! They can't carry their haul with them everywhere. This may just be their haul for today. The big one must be stored in their den."
Goutou hesitated for a moment, and finally succumbed to his inner desire for external pleasure.
Luke has no objection.
The two men and the dog set out immediately and soon found the bandits' gathering place dozens of kilometers away.
With Luke and Gold Nugget around, they could smell the bandits' scent. This was definitely the territory of the gang from before.
Luke took the lead and went in and took away the heads of the remaining five gangsters.
Fortunately, this time he asked Selena and Doghead to go find the treasure, and the two naturally had no objection.
In less than five minutes, Doghead ran back to the boat carrying a large box on his back, barking proudly twice.
Luke smiled and said, "Let's leave here first and clean up slowly later."
The small yacht leisurely set out on its return journey.
It turns out that Selena was right.
Relying on his sensitive sense of smell and armor detection, Dog Head dug out a large bag of preliminarily melted gold blocks and gemstone ore from the bandits' gathering place, with a total value of nearly one million US dollars.
But Jin Nugget also forgot that he only earned 200,000 or 300,000 US dollars through Taobao after working hard for a week, and was immersed in the wonderful feeling of becoming rich again.
However, it prefers shiny things. Its intuitive feeling is that cash is less than gold and gems are more attractive - provided that they are valuable. Glass beads cannot fool it.
Selena has no interest in gold, but is very interested in colored gemstones, especially rough stones in this semi-raw state.
Looking at the uncut gemstone growing in the ore gave her a strange sense of satisfaction.
But this also has a prerequisite, the gem must be big enough and beautiful enough.
So the man and the dog didn't even bother to eat, and they started dividing the spoils while disinfecting the ore.
Selina's hands flew quickly: "Yours, mine, yours, mine."
Gold Nugget suddenly stretched out his paw, grabbed the purple crystal she was dividing, and tilted his head: "Ouch?"
Selina coughed lightly: "You don't have a favorite color, but I prefer red, you know."
Nugget looked suspiciously at the pile of green, blue tourmaline and citrine in front of him.
It looked at the amethyst, pink, peach, purple and red tourmaline in front of Selena, and felt that the sunlight it saw now looked a little blue-green.
Aren't dogs supposed to be color blind? Selina muttered to herself, quickly moving the dog's paw away and continuing to divide the spoils.
Next, she didn't dare to give all the good-looking ones to herself so blatantly. She first gave the gold to the dog head and then the gems to herself.
Luke was there, leisurely sipping Longjing tea and silently enjoying the show of Doghead being tricked.
Anyway, I won't buy these things. They are just toys and their value is not the point.
Only the gold nugget's head seemed to be made even greener by the pile of blue-green gems, just like the jungle in summer - lush green.
…
After earning this extra money, the ten-day deadline set by Luke also arrived.
The two men and the dog put on their armor and headed north at night into Colombia.
In the following time, the two changed their identities and traveled to each country in the upper part of South America and the Caribbean with the gold bars.
For Luke, South America is a completely "super-large copy".
From the 1980s to the 1990s, Colombia produced the world's most famous drug cartels - the Medellin Cartel and the Cali Cartel. At its peak, the former monopolized 80% of the U.S. drug market.
It was not until their rampant behavior angered the United States and they were beaten up that they gave up their position as the world's number one trafficker to their former "second brother" Mexico.
The famous Silver Triangle is located in the Andes Mountains and Amazon jungle in Peru, Bolivia, Colombia and Brazil. Peru is the world's number one "country of origin".
Other countries such as Ecuador, Venezuela, Guyana and Suriname are major transit countries, and there are many traffickers who transport several tons or even dozens of tons of banned drugs in a year.
The Caribbean countries above, including Honduras, Guatemala, Dominican Republic, Haiti, and Jamaica, are almost all self-produced and transit countries.
The country and region here is a little bit bigger than soybeans on the world map, and it is also a leek field that can grow experience points.
Luke's main purpose of this trip was to have fun, but it would not be difficult to select a few big men from major cities in various countries and send them up to serve God.
Doing it appropriately will help you gain experience and accumulate knowledge, which will help you grow healthily.
…
After traveling around South America, I flew to Africa for a tour, then crossed the Strait of Gibraltar from Morocco and traveled to various European countries.
Then it entered Asia from Türkiye, traveled around Saudi Arabia, Lebanon and Israel, and entered Russia.
Then it was April, and Luke took Selina to Neon to see the cherry blossoms, soak in hot springs, and finally entered China.
When two people and a dog arrived in China, seeing the scenery was secondary.
After all, over the past six months, I have seen all kinds of magnificent scenery.
Only delicious food is a pursuit that is always different and never boring.
Luke, who could only be a "cloud Chinese gourmet" in his previous life, must work diligently this time and eat all over the country.
To be honest, he couldn't remember the names of the dishes, but he had some impression of the small restaurants and special foods from all over the country in the short videos of food up.
The two people and the dog ate a lot all over the country, from north to south, and they never stopped eating every day, completely satisfying their cravings.
Even Selina couldn't help but express her feelings: "I originally thought that your cooking skills were definitely that of a great chef, but now it seems that you are still not good enough."
Luke was speechless: Is this my problem
China's eight major cuisines, plus a variety of snacks and specialties, who dares to say that he can master them all!
There is no "all-rounder" chef in China. Those who can cook two major cuisines to the top level in the country are all super chefs.
There is no other reason, there are just too many dishes.
It was for this reason that even though Luke simplified the menu again and again and even specially prepared a "full-dish banquet" of the eight major cuisines, it still took the three foodies more than two months to eat their way through half of China.
I really don’t have enough time for the rest, so I can only find a chance to eat here next time.
After all, you can't just eat in China for a few years and never go back.
Fortunately, the teammates have clones that appear.
But relatives do care about their lives regularly, and friends will contact them during festivals.
Now that neither of them has used their real identities, it is naturally difficult for them to say that they are eating and drinking lavishly all over the world and living a good life.
Robert and Catherine had just traveled around the United States and Western Europe, and finally got on a cruise ship when they encountered a giant mutated octopus.
Selena's parents only went back to their hometown in Mexico to show off for about ten days.
If people knew that the two of them were hanging out with a dog, they would definitely be "cleaned up" when they returned.
Now, the two of them always use the excuse of "investigating the company's future market development environment" to their families. It sounds very professional and business-like, and it sounds very office-like.
What is an office? Probably similar to some people who had to go to Starbucks to drink coffee in their previous life.
The coffee is not the point; the point is that it has an office feel.
No, this trip was a "market investigation" and it took the two of them and their dog more than half a year.
It was already the end of June 2007 when they finally returned to Los Angeles from Shanghai on a private plane.
