chapter 8 furnace

Early the next morning, Lucio Arcos changed her clothes and prepared to go to work at the police station. Seeing Julian Augustus still sleeping, he frowned slightly.

She feels that whether a man has money or how he looks is not too important. The key is to be motivated. Even if you are sleeping soundly all day long, even if you are a genius, you will not achieve much.

He walked to Julian Augustus and kicked him lightly. Julian Augustus slowly opened his eyes: "Honey, is it so early?"

"It's late, it's almost eight o'clock."Lucio Arcos said lightly.

"Oh, then you go to work and I'll sleep for a while." After Julian Augustus finished speaking, he closed his eyes again. He felt that with every few more hours of sleep, his strength would increase a little. Although it was slow, it was better than having no hope.

Lucio Arcos definitely didn't know about Julian Augustus's situation and thought it was a sign of "laziness", so she said coldly: "You are almost recovered now, don't you think about finding a job?"

"No, I'm very busy."Julian Augustus muttered. Not only do you have to be busy sleeping to restore your strength, but when you wake up, you also have to think about how to make money and buy medicinal materials to strengthen this body. There is no time to go to work. Besides, as long as the strength is restored, money is just a number.

Julian Augustus's lazy attitude made Lucio Arcos even more angry. She snorted and said, "Okay, I don't care about you anymore. Do whatever you want."

Lucio Arcos stepped on high heels and walked towards the door angrily. The good impression I had just had on Qin Fei was gone. Julian Augustus's performance made her so disappointed, it was like mud couldn't hold up the wall.

However, when Lucio Arcos walked to the door, she paused again and said without looking back, "Today is my birthday."

"Oh, happy birthday to my wife."Julian Augustus said while snoring.

"You"Lucio Arcos was so angry that her teeth itched, she felt that her husband had a low IQ and low EQ. To celebrate your own birthday, just say happy birthday?

Forget it, I don't like him, so why do I care about his attitude? He snorted and said, "We'll have dinner at the Dragon's Lake Hotel tonight. Come if you're not busy."

After saying that, Lucio Arcos slammed the door and walked away with her high heels clanking.

"You seem angry?"Julian Augustus scratched his hair and didn't take it to heart. She has no ability now. Even if she gives Lucio Arcos a palace, she will only think that it was stolen by herself.

When he returns to his peak, even if he gives Lucio Arcos a grass ring, Lucio Arcos will happily accept it. During his lifetime, Julian Augustus had so much life experience that he had a very good understanding of human nature.

Qin Fei slept until almost ten o'clock before getting dressed and going out. Get ready to see if there are any opportunities to make money. Of course, catching wanted criminals brings the fastest money, but it's not every day that Julian Augustus catches wanted criminals.

After wandering around the street for several hours, Julian Augustus found nothing. When passing a garbage dump, Julian Augustus stopped.

If he wanted to regain his strength, medicinal materials alone were not enough, he also needed a good furnace, something that could only be found but not sought. It's not that you can buy it with money.

But Julian Augustus felt that he was lucky today. Just now, a seven or eight-year-old boy secretly threw a bag into the garbage pile, and there was a faint red light inside.

This kind of light is invisible to most people. It is like what we often call "fate". Who can really see such an ethereal thing?

But Julian Augustus can see because he has had adventures before, which gave his eyes special abilities.

After seeing the boy leaving, Julian Augustus quickly walked over and picked up the bag. However, before I could open it, a mocking voice came to my ears: "Mrs. Arcos? Are you out to pick up trash because you don't have money to eat?"

Neka Nesbit sat in a Santana, lowered the window, and looked at Julian Augustus with a playful expression. The nickname "Mrs. Arcos" was given by someone from the police station, which means that Julian Augustus eats the Yang family's soft food like a woman.

Julian Augustus didn't want to be the same as Neka Nesbit, so he just shrugged and said, "I'm here to throw away garbage!"

"Haha, your home is several kilometers away from here, why do you come so far to throw away garbage and exercise?"Neka Nesbit continued to laugh.

"I'm happy!"Julian Augustus said, then limped with the bag and walked towards an alley, ready to go in to see if his judgment was accurate.

When Neka Nesbit saw Julian Augustus, he took out his mobile phone and took a few photos. When he took it back to the police station, he could laugh at Julian Augustus.

In the alley, Julian Augustus was still a little excited. Because, inside the bag, there was a furnace. Although it looked dull, it must have been poorly maintained. There was still ash inside, and it was probably used as an ashtray before.

However, there is a gap in the upper right corner, which is about the size of a wine glass, causing the furnace to be missing one-third. I can't help but feel a little disappointed. This is a "broken"furnace.

But judging from the quality, it should be something from before the Ancient Rome. If you spend money to buy it, you can't buy it without tens of millions. Even if it is now a defective product, it is still worth at least several million.

It is estimated that the boy accidentally broke it just now. He was afraid of being scolded by his family, so he secretly took it out and threw it away.

What a naughty kid, but I like it!

Julian Augustus packed the furnace in the bag again, and then walked towards the nearby scrap collection station. He planned to repair the furnace himself.

Because the furnace is very hard, it requires a lot of rare metals to cast it.

However, these rare metals are controlled by the state and cannot be bought and sold by private individuals. If you go to the black market to buy it, you are likely to expose your identity.

Therefore, Julian Augustus plans to search among the metal scraps, and when the time comes to extract them, he will be able to repair the furnace.

It was almost when the sun went down that Qin Fei left the scrap collection station. As long as he goes back to repair the furnace, then buys Polygonatum sibiricum, wild ginseng, bear bile, bird's nest, and other medicinal materials, and refines them into panacea. After eating them, Julian Augustus is sure to regain 70% of his strength.

By then, money and status will be almost at your fingertips. With all this, Lucio Arcos must be proud of him.

Julian Augustus thought happily as he walked towards the road. Not far away, the cell phone in his pocket rang.

Julian Augustus took it out and saw that the name on it was "wife", so he pressed the call button and said, "Hey, wife, are you off work? Do you want me to pick you up?"

"No, I'm at the Dragon's Lake Hotel, can't you get through?"Lucio Arcos asked lightly. Although he doesn't like Julian Augustus at all, he is his husband after all. Today is his birthday. If his husband is not present, others will make irresponsible remarks.

"Then I'll come right away."Julian Augustus said. Then, he walked out of the alley carrying a garbage bag. These scraps of scrap metal may not be worth a penny in the eyes of others, but in Julian Augustus eyes they are priceless treasures and must be carried with him.

On the other side, Lucio Arcos stood by the window and hung up the phone. She was still a little angry. It seemed that if she didn't call Julian Augustus, he would not come over.

What kind of husband is this?

Lucio Arcos felt a little aggrieved. She was beautiful and had a bright career future, but why did she end up with such a husband?

When Lucio Arcos was extremely depressed, a group of people came in one after another from outside the hotel. The person at the front was Neka Nesbit. Because he killed three kidnappers, he was given first-class merit. Coupled with his family connections, it is very likely that he will sit on the throne of deputy director by the end of the year.

Therefore, Neka Nesbit is considered a popular figure in the police force. His colleagues are all smiles when they see him. They hope that Neka Nesbit will gain some benefits in the future when he becomes deputy bureau chief.

Lucio Arcos didn't have any feelings for Neka Nesbit. She nodded slightly and said, "Sit down. There are still a few people who haven't arrived yet. Let's eat some fruit first."

"Okay. By the way, Ruoxi, this is my gift to you, happy birthday!"Neka Nesbit handed a beautifully packaged jewelry box to Lucio Arcos.

Originally, Lucio Arcos was disgusted with other men calling her Ruoxi, but today was her birthday, so Lucio Arcos couldn't say anything. She just glanced at the jewelry box in Neka Nesbit's hand and frowned slightly: "Neka Nesbit, this gift It’s a bit too expensive!”

"It's not expensive, just a bracelet."Neka Nesbit said with a smile.

"Yes, just accept Captain Zhou's suggestion." The surrounding police officers also echoed. In their eyes, Neka Nesbit and Lucio Arcos are actually a good match, so they all hope that Zhou Kai can win Lucio Arcos so that they can compete for the starting spot.

Otherwise, just the thought of Lucio Arcos being fucked by that idiot Julius Augustus would make these police officers feel a little troubled.

"Okay, I won't do it next time."Lucio Arcos accepted the gift, but she was not happy in her heart. Why hasn't her stupid husband come yet?
