What You Get & Where to Sell It
There is nothing to sell โ the buyer pays on delivery.
| Item | Spawn code | What it's for | Amount |
|---|---|---|---|
| Black Money | black_money |
Dirty cash โ launder before spending | $15,000 per completed run |
No cages, animals or loot stay in your inventory. The full payment is the completion reward, and it is paid in black money โ take it to Money Wash to turn it into spendable cash.
Running it as a duo? The reward is split between you, not doubled. Two players finish faster but each takes home less. Solo pays the full $15,000.
๐ฐ Cost vs Reward
| Amount | |
|---|---|
| Investment (one-time) | An illegal_tablet, plus a weapon you already own |
| Cost per run | Ammunition only โ the van is free |
| Reward per run | $15,000 black money |
| Break-even | Immediate โ there is nothing to buy |
| After that | The highest payout on the server that costs you nothing to attempt |
Tips & Common Mistakes
- Kill all five guards before you touch a cage. Loading is slow and you cannot fight while carrying one.
- Park the van close to the rack. Ten cages carried across the whole farm is the slowest part of the run by far.
- Bring a rifle, not a pistol. The guards are spread across the property.
- Run it solo if you want the money. A partner halves your share; the job is not hard enough to need one.
- Do not abandon the van. The cages are attached to it โ the job finishes only when the loaded van reaches the delivery point.
