Chapter 39: Ben Affrey, a down-and-out mercenary
"Wow, boss. You're so cruel, I just saw that little girl crying. β
Wall, who didn't know when he appeared behind Lin Dong, teased.
Lin Dong was not frightened by his sudden appearance, but glared at him fiercely, but after seeing Wall's hippie smiling face, Lin Dong gave up scolding him, because this guy's skin is too thick.
"Stop talking nonsense, let's find a place to live first!"
Without Xia Wanru, of course he can't live in the embassy anymore, and now that his mission is complete, he still needs to see the reward this time.
Let's not talk about the rewards of the system, but these two tasks together earned Lin Dong nearly two million dollars in remuneration at once.
The 150,000 yuan to protect Liu Feiyan, because of the war with the poachers, Xia Wanyi directly added 50,000 US dollars, which means that the reward for this task to Lin Dong is 200,000 US dollars.
During the week of protecting Xia Wanyi, Lin Dong and his wife were paid $100,000 a day, which was more than $10,000 more than what had been negotiated before, so it was $700,000.
After adding the $1 million in low-level treatment drugs, in less than half a month, Lin Dong and the others earned a total of $2.9 million. It is now 2011, and the exchange rate between the US dollar and the RMB is 1:6.313, which means that if you convert it to RMB, there is 18.3077 million yuan.
Thinking of this number, Lin Dong was a little excited. This is a number that I never dared to think of in my life!
And at the end of this mission, Lin Dong also directly transferred $400,000 to Wall's account, after all, although he was a member of the team summoned by himself, but now he is also a real person, and it is necessary to pay for the mission.
Some people may say that Lin Dong is stingy, and the reward of more than two million yuan was only given to Vol 400,000, but Lin Dong is the leader of the Dragon Soul Mercenary Group after all, and the development and growth of the mercenary group in the future will require a lot of investment.
Just thinking about the last purchase of weapons and equipment, it cost 300,000 all of a sudden, this is only the basic configuration of the two of them, and if the mercenary group really grows in the future, Lin Dong doesn't know how much investment is needed to fill this hole.
And in this way, there are still 2.134 million left in Lin Dong's account.
As for that fraction, it's the balance left over from the last mission reward. 500,000 US dollars, less than two months left only a little more than 130,000, this kind of spending speed is no one.
You must know that the two of them have the best food and accommodation these days, which means that the money in Lin Dong's hands is constantly flowing like flowing water.
"Alright, let's go."
While Lin Dong was pondering, Wall remained silent for a rare time, which made Lin Dong very surprised that this broken-mouthed guy had learned to be quiet.
If he knew that Wall was thinking that his boss must be sad about the departure of the two beauties, I don't know what his mood would be.
"Okay, Boss. But we don't need to find a place to stay yet, I'll take you to meet someone first. β
As they spoke, the two walked out of Mpoco International Airport. And their Humvee, which was parked outside the airport at this time.
"Oh? Who to meet? Could it be that Wall, you guys have found a girlfriend outside these days, and they're going to let me check for you? β
βNOοΌ NO οΌ Boss, you don't know me too well. β
Wall opened the driver's door and shouted to Lin Dong, who was already sitting in the passenger seat: "I will never find a girlfriend in my life!" If you want to solve physiological problems, then just go straight to the nightclub. Directly throw out the dollars, what kind of girl does not have. β
Speaking of this, Wall suddenly became excited, and said with some excitement: "Boss, you don't know, the price of finding a woman here is simply cheap, and it only takes less than a hundred dollars, you can find a girl you want." It's amazingοΌ β
"Shut up and drive!"
Lin Dong, who couldn't stand it, directly interrupted him and had 10,000 words behind him to express his excitement, and directly ordered him to drive to the destination in his mouth.
Lin Dong was still very interested in the fact that Wall would ask him to meet someone.
After driving for about twenty minutes, Wall drove to the door of a slightly dilapidated inn, and looked at the civilians in African robes and emaciated faces around him, Lin Dong knew that this should be a place similar to a slum.
"How did you find such a place?"
Although it is said that Wall has been alone outside this week, Lin Dong really didn't expect him to find this place, could it be that he has always lived in this kind of place?
"Hey, boss, you're thinking too much. How could I live in such a place, knowing that I'm very dashing these days! β
Hearing Wall say this, Lin Dong nodded, and stopped asking.
"Alright, let's go inside. The man was already waiting on top. β
Looking at the mysterious Wall, Lin Dong also followed him directly.
Walking into this small hotel, Lin Dong's first feeling was that it was cramped.
The corridor of the entire house is only more than one meter, and it feels like two people need to turn sideways to pass if they walk on the opposite side, which makes Lin Dong feel a little depressed.
In the dim light, the two made their way to the second floor, where they stopped in front of a mottled room with the word 205 written on it.
"Hi, Ben. Open the door, I'm coming to see you with the Boss! β
Wall's loud voice rang out throughout the building, causing the faint sound of expletives coming from some of the nearby rooms.
But Wall didn't care, and still knocked on the door.
In just a few seconds, the door was opened, and a sloppy-looking bearded white man appeared in front of Lin Dong and them.
"Alright, Wall. Stop, you're going to smash my door, and I don't want to pay for it! β
"Oh, Ben. Why are you still like this, didn't I say I'm going to introduce you to a big guy today, why don't you clean up your damn rat nest! β
The bearded man who was called Ben by Wall just shrugged his shoulders when he saw this, and then looked at Lin Dong who was standing beside Wall and stretched out his hand.
"Ben Affrey. Nice to meet you! β
"Lin Dong, it's also a pleasure to meet you."
Seeing the two shaking hands, Wall next to him interjected: "Okay, let's get to know each other for a while, let's find a place to sit down and have a drink now, I don't want to stay in this bad place for a second!" β
Neither Lin Dong nor Ben objected to this, and the environment here was really not good.
Drove back to the bustling downtown area of Bangui, originally Wall was looking for a bar, but unfortunately the time is not right, people have not opened yet, so I had to find a western restaurant, just have a place to solve lunch.
