The God of War of the Great Dragon Empire returned to the Witch Star after leading everyone to seize the Pegasus Empire's territory on Ziyuan Star half a year ago.
Long Yue became the leader of this new area. At that time, there was a lack of troops, and all the mercenaries in Karachi City were temporarily recruited.
The cost of hiring a mercenary army is very expensive, one million crystal coins per person per day.
As a temporary relief, Long Yue invited all 500 mercenaries from Karachi City to come over. As time went by, the expenses became too high.
Half a year later, Long Yue transferred a thousand elite soldiers from Wu Star to take over the defense of the mercenary army.
These mercenaries returned to Karachi.
Mercenaries are a hard-working profession. In Karachi, mercenaries cannot participate in the disputes over the mining. The only thing they can do is to assist the mine owners to open up new areas and deal with the monsters and savages around the mine base.
The captain of the mercenary army is named Tang Qian.
The private mine owners elected three representatives and came together to find Tang Qian.
"Captain Tang, we have a business and would like your help."
Tang Qian laughed and said:
"Go to Savage Valley to kill monsters?"
"Captain Tang is really a genius, he can guess accurately."
"Haha, why are you guessing? Who doesn't know in the entire city of Karachi that more than a hundred mines were destroyed overnight."
"Captain Tang, this is a deposit of one billion crystal coins. We would like to ask you to take your brothers to hunt the monsters somewhere and reopen our mine."
A middle-aged man named Cage placed a black gold card in front of Tang Qian.
Cage opened five mines in the virgin forest and suffered heavy losses.
Tang Qian picked up the black gold card, touched it with his hand, and sighed:
"Crystal coins are really a good thing. For it, how many people have paid the price with their lives."
After speaking, he handed the black gold card back to Cage.
"Captain Tang, you?"
"I'm sorry, everyone, your business is too risky and we can't accept it."
"Captain Tang, what do you mean?"
"I learned about it. Those monsters can kill thousands of people in more than a hundred mines overnight. They are extremely powerful. What's more important, these monsters are commanded.
A single monster is not scary. What is scary is that someone can organize these monsters that are usually scattered.
Think about it, hundreds of thousands of monsters of all kinds form an army in the primeval forest. What would it be like? "
"ah?"
Cage and the others looked at Tang Qian, not knowing what to say.
"Captain Tang, is it a matter of price? Can you please give me a price?"
As a businessman, Cage certainly knows that there is no business that cannot be transacted, only prices that cannot be transacted.
Tang Qian laughed and said:
"Three of you, it's not that I, Tang, am trying to raise the price, but this business is really dangerous. If we don't do it right, our mercenary army may be wiped out. I really don't dare to take it!"
"Captain Tang, I know that this time is indeed different than usual. Let's do this. You make a price and we add it up. If it works, we will make a deal."
"Boss Kai, please be happy!"
Tang Qian laughed and said without any airs:
"If I want to go this time, all five hundred mercenaries must be dispatched. In the past, the price was one million crystal coins per person per day. This time it will be tripled, which is three million crystal coins, so it will be 1.5 billion crystal coins per day. , you must prepare at least 10 billion and put it in the black gold card before I will take your business."
"Huh? Three times?"
Although Cage and others were mentally prepared, they were still surprised.
After all, five hundred people have to be dispatched at once, and the price of 1.5 billion crystal coins per day is not a small amount.
"Captain Tang, can you please give me less? We have suffered a lot this time. It is very difficult for everyone now."
"Boss Kai, this time is extremely dangerous. My brothers are risking their lives. Think about it. The initial investment in more than 100 mines has exceeded 200 billion. Now I ask you to spend 100 billion." Yi Lai, do you still feel that you have suffered a loss?"
Tang Qian was naturally convinced that Cage and others could not refuse this price.
The three of Cage looked at each other, gritted their teeth and said:
"Okay, Captain Tang, let's all scrape the pot to make ends meet. However, there is a question. I want to know how long you plan to wipe out the monsters in the virgin forest in advance? We can't afford 1.5 billion a day!"
Tang Qian waved his hand and said:
"Don't worry, I'm always fair in doing business. No matter what happens this time, it's 10 billion crystal coins, all covered.
I am responsible for defeating the monsters that attack you. I cannot guarantee that all the monsters will be destroyed, but I will kill the main force of the monsters so that they will not be able to threaten your future production.
Of course, you must apply for the gene store as soon as possible, and prepare your own bodyguards to deal with daily small-scale attacks by monsters. "
After hearing this, Cage immediately cupped his fists and said:
"Captain Tang is really happy. I accept it on behalf of all the members. However, Captain Tang, please be fully prepared. Those monsters are unusual."
Tang Qian smiled lightly and said:
"Don't worry, I'm sure there will be ways to deal with those monsters next, don't forget what we do?
We are mercenaries, we have been professionally fighting monsters for decades, and our quality is guaranteed! "
The three of Cage said thank you repeatedly. After returning home, they gathered everyone together. More than a hundred mine owners each paid 100 million crystal coins.
We have no choice but to invest hundreds of millions or even billions in the mine, so we don’t care about investing an additional 100 million.
The three of Cage came to the gene store headquarters again and found Gustone.
The three of them came here on behalf of the more than 100 mine owners, and these mine owners usually mined elsewhere. They were considered a group of large customers of the gene store.
Gustone came down from the second floor and met the three people.
After the greetings, Cage said:
"Master Gu, I applied for a gene store with you three months ago. You said it would take half a year. You see, without the protection of the gene store's defensive light curtain, we suffered heavy losses this time. More than a hundred mining bases were all destroyed. It was destroyed and thousands of people died, it was so tragic!”
Cage said, shedding two tears.
He knew that in front of Gu Stone, he could only show weakness and pretend to be cold, and he could not force others to make demands.
Gustone could only pretend to be helpless and sighed:
"Well, Boss Kai, you also know that some time ago, many mines were added to the new area controlled by Long Yue, and the gene store is indeed in short supply.
We have applied to the headquarters, and it is estimated that several batches of personnel and materials will be delivered recently. In another half year or so, it should be almost done. "
"You still have to wait half a year?"
"Oh, there is nothing we can do. There are still hundreds of gene stores that have not been established in the Longyue area. No one from above has been transferred here. What can I give you?"
In accordance with the previous agreement with Yang Xiao, Gu Stone supported Yang Xiao for ten months.
Cage and others had no choice but to leave disappointed.
"What should we do? Should we wait half a year before letting the mercenaries attack? Otherwise, without the gene store, we still can't mine. We can't let the whole army be wiped out again. Then we really have no chance to turn around."
"No, I can't wait any longer. Let Tang Qian attack the monsters in the primeval forest first.
Anyway, he is paid according to the project. He has to be responsible for wiping out most of the monsters in the virgin forest before we can give him 10 billion crystal coins.
Can he wipe it out in one day?
In my opinion, I'm afraid it won't work without a month or two. "
(I will try to write the fourth update. No need to wait. It has been two days since I had an acute keratitis attack on my left eye because I have been facing the computer for a long time. Therefore, I have not dared to type in front of the computer for a long time these days. The updates may be a little sparse. Please forgive me. )
