Chapter 947: Chapter 0947: Old Friends Help 5

When delivering the "crafts" to the cultural relics department, Lu Jiang and Feng Qingxue convinced the staff to let them help push the cart filled with "crafts" to the warehouse.

Upon seeing the dazzling array of items in the warehouse, Feng Qingxue’s eyes immediately opened wide in amazement.

The artifacts in the cultural relics department were naturally all genuine, while those brought in from the outside were a mix of real and fake.

The idea of so many cultural artifacts being sent out of the country was excruciating to think about.

How much foreign currency could the country’s cultural heritage fetch in this period? The nation was poor and backward, and even foreigners looked down upon it, casually paying a small sum to take away a whole shipload of cultural artifacts.

"I really want to steal them all, clean out the whole lot!" Back at the state-run hotel, Feng Qingxue said to Lu Jiang.

Lu Jiang looked at her, "Wife, do you dare to pull off a major heist with me?"

Feng Qingxue’s eyes lit up, "What do you mean?"

"I’ve observed that people think those artifacts are not very valuable, the daytime security is not very strict, and they leave right after evening. With our skills, it would be like entering uninhabited territory," Lu Jiang drew several routes on the table with some water he dipped his finger into, "We can climb in from the back, make our way to the warehouse door, I can unlock it, and when we leave, I can restore the lock to its original state."

An experienced soldier, for him, scaling walls and leaping roofs was a piece of cake.

Feng Qingxue, with her courage greater than the heavens, felt even more emboldened with Lu Jiang at her back, unable to bear the thought of so many artifacts being lost overseas, possibly requiring their own countrymen to later buy them back, or worse – staying in foreign museums.

"Let’s do it, what’s there to fear? We have space, which can contain everything, no one would guess that we stole them."

As for how to return them in the future, just send them back the way they were taken!

In the world, no one could imagine the existence of the space.

Feng Qingxue and Lu Jiang had come targeting the cultural artifacts at risk of being obliterated, naturally unwilling to let so many invaluable cultural artifacts be taken away before their very eyes.

Seeing with one’s own eyes and hearing with one’s own ears made all the difference.

The couple told the hotel staff that they were going out to visit a friend and if they came back late or couldn’t find the person, and since the trams were almost out of service, they might stay at a guesthouse outside and would need their room kept for them as they would return if they couldn’t find the person since they needed to catch a train to leave.

The hotel employee didn’t suspect their plan and nodded in agreement, "Serving the people. Comrades, rest assured, your luggage and the things you brought back will not be touched by anyone."

Thus, the husband and wife duo checked into a guesthouse nearby the cultural relics department.

In the dead of night, when everything was quiet, the two dressed all in black and stealthily left the guesthouse, scaling directly into the courtyard of the cultural relics department.

All the supplies in Feng Qing’s space were prepared for the coming apocalypse, including a range of auxiliary tools such as ladders made of fine steel, which they used to climb over the wall and then stowed away in the space.

Lu Jiang easily unlocked the door, and they slipped inside, only opening their flashlights after they gently closed the door behind them.

Feng Qingxue was quick to steal; she swept all the artifacts into her space in the blink of an eye, and in an instant, the warehouse was empty.

Before leaving, the duo left behind a large box of prepared Gold.

Everything was carried out in darkness, and they wore gloves prepared by Feng Qingxue, leaving not a single trace behind, even wearing new shoes covered with shoe covers, so no footprints were left on the ground.
