Eric was fidgeting in a chair on the first floor, and he also knew the strength of the "Observer", so he was a little worried about Leon, who had been up for a while.

Then he saw a young man walking downstairs with ease, and Eric immediately stood up and greeted him.

"Let's go," Leon said with a calm expression, waving his hand to the young man who was waiting for him, and led Eric straight out of the mage tower.

“...... Are you alright?" asked the gangster leader at last.

"It's okay," Li Ang smiled slightly, and he thought to himself, "What else can happen except that old man's eyes, thoughts, and means?"

By now, Leon was sixty or seventy percent sure that Clement had known about the castle, and then he happened to send it to the door, so he was suspected.

But so what, the ruins of the ancient castle were discovered by themselves, and the custom was that everything in it was disposed of by himself, so Li Ang, who had received a huge sum of money, quickly put this matter in his mind.

Moreover, this was also the first time in the two lives of the young regiment leader that he had obtained so many gold coins in his hand, so he couldn't help but feel a little nervous, and returned to the "Kaka House" that felt safe as soon as possible.

At this time, there was no one in the hall on the first floor, and they should all be resting, Leon thought for a while, and motioned for Eric to find a chair to sit down.

"Eric, I heard that you haven't been doing well for more than ten years, and you're also in financial distress?"

"Yes, it's normal, the world is not kind to down-and-out people. ”

Since the former gangster leader has decided to stay in this mercenary group, he has been in the bottom for more than ten years, and he answers very honestly.

"Hmm......" Li Ang touched the stubble on his chin and said, "After so many years, have you ever owed money to others?"

Eric didn't speak for a long time, and he began to squint his eyes and seriously consider the purpose of Leon's sudden question, and finally he decided to tell the truth, because if he didn't say it, he would soon find out.

"Yes, it is owed, and it is a lot, but it can still be repaid. ”

"How much? How much do you owe?" Leon didn't seem to hear the other party's second sentence.

"I said I would return the ......"

Leon raised his hand to interrupt the other party's words, "Eric, it's not that I suspect you of anything, not to mention that you are still an old friend of Mentor Kaka, but...... After all, you haven't seen each other in more than ten years. ”

Leon seemed to be back in some kind of love in his previous life, and he continued: "There may be things that you think have nothing to do with me, but don't forget that in the future, we will be comrades-in-arms who fight together and live together, for the sake of the whole team, I still hope to know something that we should know." ”

He raised his head and looked at Eric's somewhat annoyed expression, and said calmly: "I have a problem, I don't suspect people, I don't need to suspect people, so I will say anything ugly in front, and I need to understand in advance if there are any problems, so ......"

"How much do you owe, and how?"

Li Ang did not deliberately force this former gangster, but whether a person owes money or not, the amount of money owed, the use of money, etc., will reflect his attitude towards money, and this attitude is also equivalent to his temperament.

He didn't want to bring a time bomb to the mercenary group that was now very close, even if it was Kaka's friend, even if he couldn't open his mouth to get out, he would try to downplay the role of this person.

Eric calmed down a little, and although Leon looked young, his words were sincere, which made him even more weighty.

"It's not that this person just established such a small mercenary group, how does it sound like a seasoned leader?"

Eric was a little confused, but just say it, there's nothing unpleasant.

"When I was betrayed by old Gülen, although I was lucky to survive, most of my gang died, and I needed to clean up the aftermath, but all the qi was gone, so I had to borrow money. ”

Seeing Li Ang's somewhat strange eyes, Eric's old face turned red, "I have borrowed nearly three thousand gold coins intermittently over the years, but I have already repaid six or seven hundred. ”

“...... Is this a strange thing in the gangster world?" Li Ang said secretly, just such a small gangster leader, after he was down, he even thought about the aftermath of his subordinates, and it is estimated that even the family is in charge, it is simply the attribute of the Holy Mother......

Eric has been mixed up for so many years, of course he understands the meaning in Li Ang's eyes, and can't help but explain: "Actually, this is the common rule of people like us, if the boss is alive, but he doesn't clean up the aftermath of the dead brothers, he won't be able to mix in the lower city at all in the future, and if I do this, the other people in the lower city can make it less difficult for me." ”

"So that's what it looks like...... "Leon suddenly realized, it wasn't that Eric had the attributes of a virgin, but how could he think that these low-level gangsters were more considerate than some of the army?"

He remembered the situation of the veteran Jack, and couldn't help but secretly give the middle finger to the border guard of the Kingdom of Sver.

But Li Ang also understands that the gangsters pay attention to morality, while the army talks about the system, morality is the behavior of "industry", and the physique covers the whole country.

In this way, Eric is still a responsible gangster leader, which can be summed up in one sentence - people are black, but the heart is not too black.

Leon groaned for a moment, then took out a handful of platinum coins from his brand-new dimensional pouch and placed them on the table next to him.

"This is ......," Eric watched the regiment commander's movements in confusion.

"This is for you, go and pay off all the arrears. ”

"There's no need to ......," Erik's voice trembled a little, "and that's too much. ”

"It is necessary," said Leon, "though I am not a philanthropist, nor am I a miser, and the money is not without purpose. ”

"I just hope that my members don't have any problems because of financial reasons. ”

Eric was silent, he agreed with this young man's words in his heart, a large part of the reason why the people who betrayed themselves and old Gülen back then was definitely for money!

He walked over and counted out twenty-four from a pile of platinum coins, but Leon handed him the remaining six or seven, "Although you may not have been happy before, after all, you have been in the lower city for so many years...... Now you know our form, so these are your funds, now start to collect some information, filter some important information that is related, and then sue me. ”

Eric's eyes lit up a little, he started as an intelligence broker in the first place, and even his heart trembled slightly when he thought of being able to engage in his old profession again.

"Good...... I try to ...... No, I'll be able to do it," said the old gangster.

"People like you will get up from where you fall, so I believe it. ”

......

Seeing Eric's figure gone, Leon turned around and saw the sepia face of his mentor.

With a weird smile, Kaka said, "Okay boy, it's impossible for Eric to kill you now." ”

"But at your age, how did you manage to win hearts and minds so skillfully?"

"What to buy or not to buy, it's really ugly!" said the young apprentice with a stern expression and righteous words: "Everything I do is to compare my heart to my heart!"

"Phew, it's weird if you compare your heart to your heart!" Kaka spat disdainfully, he had already seen the apprentice's careful thoughts, and he knew that Eric should be able to see it, but Leon's approach was just in line with the passion that Eric had been keeping in his heart, so he would definitely willingly do what the other party asked.

"I know that buying people's hearts is also a skill, so why hide it," Kaka glanced at him, "If you don't know how to do it, I'll be worried!"

"Alright!" Kaka saw that Leon still wanted to speak, and immediately interrupted: "If I explain again, I'll go back and rest immediately!"

"Huh?" Li Ang immediately became interested when he heard this unusual remark, "Master Mentor, is there anything good to say?"

Kaka didn't speak, and walked towards the basement with his hands behind his back, and Leon immediately followed carelessly.

The basement was small in size, but there were a lot of alchemy tools piled up, and Kaka came to a square table, on which was the small chest brought back from the castle.

It turned out that the alchemist had not been idle during the time they had been away, he had gone around the business district, and when he came back, he had gone into the basement to crack it, until Leon had just dismantled the trap on it when he came back to talk to Eric.

Kaka's hand rested on the box and said, "Leon, your kid's luck is really good. ”

"Of course!" the apprentice smiled, "what the hell?"

The box opened, and inside was a fist-sized, dusty stone, which was not in sight to be seen.

“...... This is?" Leon looked at his mentor.

He knows the story of He's Bi, so he doesn't judge things by their appearance.

"The mother stone of the power stone. ”

Although it sounded a little awkward, it didn't hinder Li Ang's cognition, he knew that the power stone was very valuable, but he didn't know how valuable the mother stone would be.

"Let's put it this way," Kaka picked up the stone and tossed it up and down, "a mother stone of this size can be split into two thumb-sized source stones, each of which is equivalent to at least four or five zircons. ”

Li Ang immediately flew over and took the source stones that were flying up and down, just kidding! You just toss such a valuable thing like a ball?

What to do if you break it!

Compared with this thing, the harvest of 50,000 gold coins just now is simply equivalent to a small snack before the meal, Li Ang hugged the mother stone tightly, and there seemed to be an incomparably wide road in front of him, on which countless gold coins flew with wings, and Jin Cancan was almost blinded.

This is the rhythm of the poor getting rich!
