Chapter 36: The Master's Temptation
"Soup, why are you here?" asked curiously after coming downstairs to see a group of us sitting in the living room, although she was shouting "soup", but in fact we knew that she was calling me, but subconsciously called me that.
"Wu Xuan invited us to a picnic in the back mountains. I asked the master, "Do you want to come along?"
"What are you doing on a picnic in the back mountain?" the master frowned and said, "Isn't it okay to have a picnic in the yard?" The main reason is that there seems to be some danger in the back mountain recently, and the beast that I don't know where it came from has run to the mountain behind my house, and a servant was attacked when he went fishing in the mountains before, and he is still lying in the hospital. ”
Liu Lang didn't catch the point that the master said, and said curiously: "Fishing, what is the operation of going to the mountains to fish?"
Wu Xuan explained: "My parents said that they didn't like to eat fish bought in the market, and it happened that there was a lake in the mountain behind my house, so my father asked people to buy a bunch of fish fry and put them in the lake to raise, and when they wanted to eat fish, they asked the maid to go to the lake to fish." ”
"O wicked rich man......"
"What kind of beast is that?" I asked the master who came over and sat across from me, "Is it a bear or a wolf?"
The master shook his head and said, "I don't know, my father has been looking for someone to search in the mountains for several days and has not found it, but it shouldn't be a bear, after all, if it's a bear, it can't be a slap without killing a person." ”
Wu Xuan hurriedly asked, "Why didn't you tell me about such a big thing in advance?"
"I told you that you can still catch that beast or what?" the master rolled his eyes at Wu Xuan and said, "Could it be that you went home directly to the back mountain?"
"We're going to have a picnic in the back mountains, so you told me earlier that you wouldn't have let us be so disappointed. Wu Xuan said to the master: "You didn't tell me that I was slapped in front of Gardenia, aren't you slapping me in the face now?"
I hurriedly stopped Wu Xuan and said, "It's okay, it's okay, anyway, it's not bad to go to the back mountain and be in the yard." And there may be a lot of mosquitoes in the mountains, so it's more convenient in the yard. ”
When Wu Xuan saw me say this, she gave up and talked back to the master, saying, "Okay then...... Then let's have a picnic in the yard. ”
The master didn't care about Wu Xuan, and then looked at Huang Yurou and asked, "Are these three your classmates?"
"Ah, they are the senior sisters of our school, and we have a good relationship, in a sense, the kind of relationship that has experienced life and death together. I laughed, but they did experience life and death together in a sense — the kind they lived and died.
The three of them introduced themselves to the master, and Huang Yurou asked the master, "By the way, Miss Yang, when did the beast appear in the mountain behind your house?"
"Hmm...... I don't know the specifics, but the maid at home was injured last Monday, eight days ago. What kind of experts did my dad find for a week but didn't find any trace of the beast, what a bunch of useless guys, dozens of people wandered around the mountains for a week and didn't find anything except a few rabbits and squirrels, I think my dad's millions are in vain. ”
"Millions?!" Huang Yurou's eyes lit up instantly, and they continued to ask the master: "Millions is a few millions, is it a few million for everyone combined, or is there a few million for each person?"
The master smiled: "How can it be possible to give tens of people millions each for a beast, I remember that each person gave 100,000, and they have more than 30 people, so the total is more than 3 million." ”
The enthusiasm of the three of them had dissipated a little, and it seemed that they were going to find the beast to get those rewards, right?
What a clever man the master was, she saw at a glance what the three of them were planning to do, and said, "Don't you think you can find the beast?"
The three of them glanced at each other, and Huang Yurou said, "It's not a secret, in fact, the three of us are superpowers. ”
She looked at me and tried to get an answer from me, and then the master said to the three of them, "Do you plan to help us find that beast?"
"Yes, there is a plan, but the reward of 100,000 yuan per person ......" Huang Yurou paused for a moment and then smiled: "It's a little less." ”
The master hurriedly said: "Since you are supernatural beings, it is naturally no problem to pay a little money - so let's do it, I will make the decision for my father, you see how much you want, as long as I think it is reasonable, I will promise you." ”
Huang Yurou hurriedly pulled me to hide with Wu Shui and Liu Meng, and the three of them asked me, "How much do you think is appropriate?"
"Why are you asking me? It's not me who catches me. I said with a little cry and laughter.
"Because the person who knows best about her family's property here is you? Wu Xuan is her sister, I can't let Wu Xuan help us with ideas, right? My family will definitely find a way to save money for my family. ”
That's true, but I'm not very sensitive to the concept of money...... I seem to have received the 500,000 yuan that the three generations gave me before, which is my maximum income, I thought about it and said to Huang Yurou: "Since they are giving 100,000 yuan to each of those people, you want three times as much as them, 300,000 yuan per person...... No, why don't you just ask for a million? The three of you have a total of one million, how you can divide it up at your own discretion, and I think this price is more suitable for you, after all, it's just a beast to catch a beast - I don't think with your strength to wrestle directly with a blind bear, isn't this million a pie falling from the sky?"
After listening to my words, Huang Yurou felt that what I said was really good, so we went back to our seats, Huang Yurou stretched out her index finger and said to the master with some trepidation: "One million ......"
"Deal!" The master said without thinking, "Each of you has one million, and I will give you three million." I will add 500,000 to you at my own discretion, for a total of 3.5 million. ”
"Hiss~oo
But looking at the master's expression, she seemed to feel that she was still making a lot of money, and then I suddenly realized that the master was indeed making a lot of money - these are three abilities, you must know that if you can build a good relationship with this kind of existence, you are willing to spend as much as you want. If you can have a good relationship with these three abilities for 3.5 million, it will definitely be earned by the blood of the master's family.
I even think that if Huang Yurou and the others offer a price of 10 million, it is not impossible to discuss, although the abilities of these three people are actually not of much use to the master's family.
Wrong...... I suddenly realized that the master may not want to bring these three abilities to help his family do business, after thinking that the master's family and Kowloon will have a certain relationship, if the Kowloon Society can have these three abilities, maybe it can completely eliminate other underworld organizations in Asia, and then after sweeping away the underground underworld in Asia, the master's family may be able to use the power of the Kowloon Society to grow stronger......
Seeing that I looked surprised, the master made a silent gesture at me, and then said to the three of them, "What do you think? If you are not satisfied with this price, we can discuss it again." ”
Although surprised, the three of them were not stupid, and after a short period of surprise, Huang Yurou asked, "Miss Yang, are you offering this price...... Maybe it's not just for us to catch a beast for your family, right?"
Huang Yurou meant that she felt that the price offered by the master was too high, and there must be something else, but the master thought that Huang Yurou felt that she only opened this price, and she must have planned to ask them to help them and give more honorarium. So the two people who completely misunderstood each other's meaning laughed, and the master said: "Miss Huang is really not an ordinary person, and the person with the ability is the person with the ability...... Actually, I'd like to ask three friends of mine to help clean up his enemies - the price will certainly not be disadvantageous to the three. According to the ability of the three, if you are willing to help my friend clear out one of the organizations that hinders him, the three of them will receive a reward of 10 million, which means that they will have an income of 30 million for one action. ”
The three of them hurriedly covered their mouths to prevent their too arrogant smile from being seen, and after finally calming down, Huang Yurou asked, "Then the enemy you are talking about...... What kind of organization is it that hinders him? It would be difficult if the other party also had a special ability. ”
The master hurriedly explained: "No, no, no, the organizations I am talking about are all underground underworlds, all of them are ordinary people." As far as I know, no organization has the ability to afford to hire a Stranger to take charge. And doesn't Guan Ling also have a clear stipulation that people with supernatural abilities cannot participate in disputes between underworld organizations?"
Huang Yurou smiled: "Since Miss Yang knows this, why do you still hire us? Miss Yang is not afraid that she will be held accountable by Guan Ling?"
"Of course I'm scared, but ......" The master also showed a confident smile: "The three are not Guan Ling's powers, right? As far as I know, there is only one teacher Shang Qingyun in Shangda, and I haven't seen three of them in many high-level gatherings in Minhai, which means that the three are not actually the ones who have a record in Guan Ling, they are not recognized as powers, so we will not be held accountable by Guan Ling if we hire them." And think about it - you are not recognized as a supernatural person, naturally you can't show your identity as a supernatural person to enjoy all kinds of conveniences, after graduation, the three of you still need to submit resumes everywhere to find a job in order to live, and you need to look at other people's faces to act. But if you accept my family's employment, the three of you can get tens of millions of income by beating a few people casually, and you can rest if you want to work, and no boss will urge you to work overtime and stay up late, the only situation in which you will stay up late is to have crazy fun. ”
"Okay!" Huang Yurou raised her hand and signaled the master to stop talking: "We promise your conditions!"
