Chapter 335: Not an easy choice

Previously, their agency had signed one-year contracts with veterans from countries around the world, with remuneration ranging from $100,000 to $300,000, which seemed to be normal security employment contracts.

And a tenfold increase? That's a lot of money, so when they hear him say that it's ten times the original commission, the people all focus. Keep your ears up and listen carefully to what he is saying.

"The commission for someone who signs a new contract and takes on a new assignment goes straight up to $2 million, and there's a lot of performance-based pay. It is also a one-year contract. Shen Chao took out a new contract and showed it.

As soon as he heard the $2 million, it was obvious that all the retired soldiers in the room were jumping out of the corner of their eyes, but they didn't expect Shen Chao to give such a condition.

Of course, there are still doubts. After thinking about it carefully, they began to worry whether Shen Chao would let them do anything particularly dangerous or suicidal. So someone needs to stand up and ask questions.

"Can we know what we are required to accomplish under the new contract?" A middle-aged Asian officer asked.

"No, all I can say is that this is a very secretive mission, and you will only be informed of the mission information after accepting the mission and signing the contract. Shen Chao simply rejected his question.

Hearing him answer like this, the mercenaries, you look at me, I look at you, and they are a little undecided. That's right, they all did a lot of black jobs during their service, participated in many dangerous missions that they didn't know about in advance, and survived.

But this time they are not doing things for state institutions. The employer is so mysterious that he doesn't even say the general status of the task, and such an attitude still makes them feel at ease.

Shen Chao didn't care when he saw their expressions, anyway, he only needed about two-thirds of these people to stay, so he wasn't worried at all that some of the mercenaries wouldn't agree.

"Disagreeing? It's okay, I'm not going to force anyone to get involved in this mission. At the same time, if anyone is worried about my ability to pay. Please see here. Shen Chao said and walked to one of the narrator's wooden boxes.

The box had been in the room since the beginning, and it was an extremely thick box half a human tall. From the outside, this box looks like one of those boxes that ship large parcels.

There are quite a few metal parts on top of the chest for structural reinforcement. There was no lock, though, just nails. So the people who came to the room before didn't pay much attention. None of them thought about what was in here.

Before and after arriving at the box, Shen Chao stretched out a hand and grabbed the entire nailed wooden board on the side of the box with one hand. Then break it gently. The entire plank immediately creaked, and then the entire side was removed along with the nails.

Before the people at the scene had time to marvel at his strange power, they were shocked by the contents of the box. Because the open chest was full of gold. This large box contained rows of large gold bricks.

"This is your advance payment, a total of 15 tons of gold. Anyone who signs a new contract gets an equal share from here. That's 8 dollars per person. And this gold is not counted in the salary of the contract. You can claim it now. ”

Shen Chao tempted the speechless people in front of him. said. He also tossed a brick to a mercenary who was standing closer.

Although he only used a small amount of force to throw it, the speed of the gold brick is still comparable to that of a baseball thrown by ordinary people at a slow pace. Under the acceleration of gravity, the person who caught the gold bar was almost injured.

"Gentlemen, you have a whole night to think about it. After that, you have to make a choice, and those who remain have many opportunities to make a fortune like this.

As for those who are reluctant to sign a new contract. I will arrange for a special flight to take them back to their place of departure tomorrow and let them decide for themselves whether or not to fulfill their original contract.

Think about it, folks, whether to work hard to become a millionaire, a million, or even a billionaire a year, or go home. It's your choice......"

After speaking. Shen Chao left here in great strides, leaving the follow-up introduction and placement work completely to Sun Yang, and he would return to the space station to wait for news.

After Sun Yang received the order, he first arranged the distribution of gold bars, he knew that this was an important part of Shen Chao's plan, so he divided it very carefully to ensure that each soldier had just received their share of the advance payment.

After completing this, he was busy arranging dinner and accommodation for a large number of people in front of him, and no matter who continued to ask, he didn't reveal a little bit of Shen Chao's other information.

Whether it was the doubts of his confidants and subordinate employees he brought, or the waves of retired soldiers whose attitudes became extremely polite, he made his silence clear.

That night, many of the mercenaries who were temporarily placed in the barracks at the base had insomnia, and some of them tossed and turned on their beds in the barracks with the gold bricks they had temporarily received, considering their own options.

Others gather in large and small groups to discuss group decisions in the areas of the island where they are allowed to move. Among them, most of them are from China, the United States and Russia.

Now the scenario is clear, their employers are extremely rich and have given them a shortcut to get rich. But there are also dangers, and they don't know what will go wrong after they get involved in their employer's plan.

With such limited information, it is difficult for people to come up with a final decision, whether they are thinking about it on their own or in a group, and they can only think or discuss it all night in bed or on the beach.

And with the dawn approaching, many people find it harder and harder to let go of the thick gold bars they already have in their hands. This is human nature, no one wants to let go of the money they have already gotten in their hands.

The next day, as the sun rose, people made their choices. And with the arrival of the appointed time, Shen Chao also appeared in the gymnasium again, soliciting the final choice of the mercenaries.

The results were unsurprising. Most of them accepted his new contract, and only a few mercenaries chose the original contract out of caution, and were extremely reluctant to return the gold bricks they had already gotten.

Shen Chao asked others to sign new contracts in turn, and arranged a special plane to send more than a dozen people who wanted to fulfill the original contract to a construction site in Syria that morning. Since they wanted to make that safe money, Shen Chao would not force them to participate in his plan.

At the airport, Shen Chao took the other mercenaries to send off the people who left a little. Looking at the plane that slowly flew out of sight, Shen Chao turned around and had a showdown with the 130 mercenaries in front of him who had already signed a new contract.

"Alright, guys. Now that the unrelated people are gone, they have given up a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. They don't know what they're missing.

As for you, it is time for you to know your mission. Follow me ......" With that, he left the airport with the mercenaries and walked towards the crossing area.

On the way to the Crossing Zone, all sorts of things that had disappeared before quickly reappeared on the island. A swarm of nearly a thousand drones swarmed back from the sea 150 kilometers away.

The patrol of the humanoid machine, which had been hidden before, walked out of the vault and crossed the area in groups...... And a few other buildings where they were hiding.

The camouflage of several large defensive batteries placed on the commanding heights of the island was also removed, revealing their massive size in the sunlight. Each of these batteries is the size of a large wagon, with a barrel up to 15 meters long. It stands out in the morning sun.

The mercenaries who followed Shen Chao soon noticed the fort on a hill in the distance, and were about to ask Shen Chao what was going on.

But just as the guy was about to ask, it suddenly darkened! He and the others looked up, and were immediately shocked.

Because they found that the sky suddenly darkened because of a dense mass of unidentified aerial vehicles flying overhead, these flying machines did not seem large, but they were extremely numerous, and they moved without sound and at extremely fast speeds.

"Don't be surprised, these are the security equipment on the island, and they won't attack you......" Shen Chao calmly introduced to the mercenaries behind him.

The group of mercenaries who had already drawn their secondary weapons heard him say this before they put down their guns and continued to follow him. Although their eyes will involuntarily look at the group of flying machines that have flown away.

After arriving at the crossing area, they saw a large number of humanoid people carrying unknown weapons. Before they could figure out what was going on, Shen Chao gave a speech, briefly explaining who he really was and what he hired them for.

He has made such introductions many times, so he is familiar with the way when he speaks. He even considered whether he should make an introductory documentary in the future, lest he would continue to explain to the various affiliated personnel in the future.

Listening to his speech, the mercenaries from various countries in front of them were really stunned, no matter how they guessed before, no one thought that it would be like this.

Their employer turned out to be a time traveler! And the reason they were hired was: he had a plane to occupy? Such shocking news made many of them wonder if they were dreaming.

But when they saw a large number of drones and people just now, they had already verified whether they were awake, so what they heard at this time was definitely not a hallucination or a dream.

"Guys, you're not dreaming. Now, you have a chance to join my expedition, and your first task is to help me occupy this plane," Shen Chao said, pointing to the large screen behind him, on which was a strategic map marked after the drawing.

"But before that, you have to do a new training and learn to use all kinds of new weapons of war......"

Shen Chao ended his speech like this, and then he let Todd take over the rest of the work, since joining the expedition, Todd has been the leader of the soldiers, arranging the training and deployment of the soldiers.

Now, Shen Chao needed him to lead a team of soldiers to stay at the second base to train these soldiers they had just hired, so that they could master the use of new weapons and communication skills in a short period of time. (To be continued.) )
