Chapter 36: Vigilance
Arnold said innocently: "The three of us have formed a team now, and there must be someone to be the captain, right?" You don't deserve it, do you want me to be it? ”
"Yes, you should." Luo Wei directly pushed the title to Arnold's head, and before this big man could refute, he sealed Arnold's mouth, "I don't accept rebuttal." ”
Arnold was a little dumbfounded, now the three-person team is relying on Luo Wei to support the scene, this guy actually pushed the title of captain to him, isn't this killing him? Arnold blushed and asked, "Why?" ”
"I don't want to be." The reason given by Luo Wei almost made Arnold vomit blood, this reason is too capricious, right?
In fact, Luo Wei still has considerations on this issue, first of all, if they form a team, when they encounter any trouble in the future, the captain will definitely bear the brunt, and the exposure rate is also the highest, which is too troublesome for Luo Wei, he doesn't want to attract too many people's attention, and he doesn't like too many people to point the finger at him and push Arnold into this position, in fact, he has his selfishness, he wants to use Arnold as a shield.
Of course, there is a deeper reason in it, that is, Luo Wei thinks that his social skills are too poor, he doesn't know how to communicate with people, and more like Arnold said, he doesn't understand the power of human feelings.
A person who doesn't know how to communicate is destined to be unable to become a leader, not to mention whether he has the ability to deal with the contradictions within the team, in external issues, a captain who goes his own way and insists on going his own way is easy to bring the team into the abyss of no return, so although Arnold is not as strong as Luo Wei at all, he has a strong human touch, which is more suitable for this position.
Arnold knew that Luo Wei never answered those questions that he felt were not interesting, and now this perfunctory "I don't want to be" has shown that he doesn't want to answer this question, and Arnold can only compromise helplessly, and at the same time feel a little nervous inexplicably.
Just imagine, there is a monster in the team that is a hundred times stronger than yourself, but when you communicate with outsiders, you have to call yourself the captain, which is simply unspeakable, and you can't even hold your face.
"By the way, you asked Ling to call me over, is there anything wrong?" Arnold remembered what was going on.
Luo Wei pointed at the smiling Donald and said, "I don't have a bank account, I can't bring so much money, you are a resident of Dawn City, you should have a personal account, and the money is stored there." ”
Arnold's mouth was open enough to stuff two eggs: "Aren't you afraid that I will swallow your money and slip away?" ”
"Try it." Luo Wei suddenly showed a mysterious smile.
"Just kidding, just kidding," Arnold muttered embarrassedly, "you guy can run hundreds of kilometers at every turn, where can I slip away." ”
Seeing Arnold coming over, Donald's occupational disease was committed again, his eyes revealed a desire for money, he rubbed his hands and said with a smile: "This guest, you look like a very powerful warrior, the wilderness is full of dangers, and now that you have become the captain of the squad again, are you interested in buying something to improve your strength?" ”
If the money is Arnold's, he will definitely pick it, after all, life is more important than money, instead of desperately looking for reward points in the wilderness, it is better to use the money to buy some exchanges, but this money is earned by Luo Wei, and none of it belongs to him, so he will definitely not touch it: "No, next time I will come to you when I have money, let's call the money first, the account is..."
After Arnold reported the account, Donald sent a team to escort the money to the bank, after all, he was also a native of the black street, and he knew very well that he had to watch out for danger at any time here, let alone escort such a large sum of money.
To be on the safe side, Luo Wei waited until the escort team came back and asked Arnold to go to a nearby machine to check the balance, and after getting a positive answer, he nodded with satisfaction.
"If you don't mind, stay for a meal, I'll treat you." Donald Koko chuckled, although this was just his habitual action, but with the old face and dead bark-like skin, it was still quite terrifying.
Generally speaking, Donald's iron rooster will not invite people to dinner, even if he really invites people to eat, he must collect food expenses in advance, he will not let go of any opportunity to make money, but the purpose of this time is different, he is to win over Luo Wei, although it is impossible to sell any favors for a meal, but it can more or less get closer to the relationship, and the hidden income in Tang Lao's heart is already higher than the food expenses.
Donald took them to the restaurant, Donald is mainly engaged in the business of reselling cube exchange goods, not the catering industry, so he didn't open any luxury restaurants, even if there were, he wouldn't break the fortune to invite the living, not to mention that in this era, banquets and banquets are exclusive to the elites of the upper class, and the price of those fresh ingredients is not something that ordinary people can afford, and most people can only enjoy honey and bread.
This meal is very simple, a big pot of steamed buns, a little pickles, a pot of light soup, gone, the total price does not exceed forty berry.
In the old days, this meal was not even a migrant meal, but in the Honkai Era, this was already quite good, not to mention anything else, if that large basin of steamed buns was placed on the wilderness, it was enough to make the two armed forces fight into a river of blood.
Arnold was originally a civilian with little money in Dawn City, and when he saw such a large pot of steamed buns and refreshing pickles, his mouth immediately watered, and he directly reached out to grab two to nibble.
But at this moment, Luo Wei suddenly pressed Arnold's hand, and then moved his eyes to Donald, and said, "You eat first, steamed buns, pickles, soup, you taste them all first." ”
Luo Wei's meaning is obvious: I don't know if there is poison in these things, you taste them all first, and I will eat them after making sure they are not poisonous.
This kind of extreme vigilance is a necessary survival skill in the wilderness, the open gun is easy to dodge and the dark arrow is difficult to prevent, throughout the ages, there are many heroes who have been poisoned, and how many powerful characters have fallen on the simplest problem of "eating".
Although Arnold understood what Luo Wei meant, he was not a person in the wilderness after all, so he couldn't quite understand this, and reminded in a low voice with some hesitation: "Luo Wei... Isn't that good? ”
Donald was also very unhappy at this time, he kindly invited someone to dinner, but he actually suspected that he had poisoned the meal, and he questioned it in public, what is the difference between this and directly slapping him?
Donald looked at Luo Wei, just wanted to say "If you like to eat, eat it, don't eat it", suddenly, he met Luo Wei's eyes, in the shadow of the cloak, those deep eyes faintly emitted a scarlet fierce light, like a beast ready to attack, and every second of time passed, the fierce light became more and more intense, when Tang Lao came back to his senses, cold sweat had already gathered into a stream on his face...
