Chapter 125: Earn Money Together
Thinking of this, the eyes of several people looking at Lu Chengfeng were different, some were incredible, some admired, and even a little awe.
The boss of the Sword Tyrant Mercenary Group, who has been mixed in the mercenary circle for so many years, can be said to be extremely deep in the city. After learning that Lu Chengfeng left his name on the monument on the mountain behind the Qingming and became the ninth person in hundreds of years, he couldn't help but look at him with emotion for a while, and then gave Lu Chengfeng a thumbs up from the bottom of his heart.
Some people are indeed born to be worshiped by others.
Seeing that these people were shocked by their own achievements, Lu Chengfeng was satisfied, this was exactly the effect he wanted. After all, the Sword Tyrant Mercenary Group is also a deep-rooted force in Kaiyang, and it has great envelopment value. Before starting further cooperation, Lu Chengfeng didn't mind letting himself have a deeper position in their hearts.
I talked to them selectively about the matter of the Qingming Nine Passes, and after arousing their amazement again, Lu Chengfeng changed the topic and said the right thing.
"I'm here this time, firstly, to express my gratitude to the Sword Tyrant Mercenary Group, and secondly, to bring a big business. ”
Big business?
The boss of the sword became interested and listened with a serious attitude. It's just that he didn't care too much in his heart. After all, Lu Chengfeng is just one person, except for some relationship with the Liu family, he doesn't seem to be a representative of any other big force. How big can such a business be?
He estimated that maybe 100,000 gold coins was the limit.
Several other high-ranking mercenary group members in the camp also thought so. It's just that some people are moody and invisible, and some people are more straightforward, and their faces directly appear dismissive.
Lu Chengfeng smiled, cleared his throat, and said, "Well, this business has a total of one million gold coins." ”
"How much?" Lu Ziling, the deputy head of the Sword Mercenary Regiment and a sixth-order high-level man, shook his hand and almost knocked over the teacup in front of the table. He plucked out his ears suspiciously, as if he thought he was hallucinating. The other two sixth-order masters also had incredible looks on their faces, which was even more serious than hearing Lu Chengfeng pass through the Nine Levels of the Qing Ming before.
The boss of the sword also seriously suspected that he had misheard, he straightened his body and repeated to the side: "A million gold coins?"
"Yes, it's one million!" Lu Chengfeng nodded, took out two approvals from the space ring, put them on the table and pushed them in front of the sword boss.
"This is?" the boss of the sword took it curiously, looked at it, and his face couldn't help but change. His eyes intertwined back and forth between the jade seal of the Lanwu Empire and the official seal of the Farowan Domain, and then he pondered for a moment, and suddenly asked, "Farowan Commander, are you going to go to war?"
This is an old mercenary's keen sense of smell, although he didn't get the news, but based on his own understanding of Farowan, he sensed something from Lu Chengfeng's actions and the two approvals.
Lu Chengfeng bowed slightly, signaling that his guess was correct.
The boss of the sword finally swept over the figure of 1 million gold coins, and his face gradually recovered from shock to calm. After a while, he nodded, pushed the two approvals back, and said, "Brother Lu, good means! I was really surprised that I was able to get this thing! War is imminent, and the magic crystal mine must be a hot commodity, and it is not a problem to make a difference of six or seven percent of the price." ”
Lu Chengfeng smiled and said lightly: "It's just a coincidence, I snatched it from a swordsman." ”
it!
All the high-level leaders of the sword overlord were even more uncalm, snatching it from a sword hero...... How easy it is to say, it's like grabbing a third-order little swordsman. But in fact, the other party is one level higher than you. For someone else, I don't know, I think this is a seventh- or eighth-order powerhouse who is talking.
After looking at each other, the boss of the sword coughed dryly and asked, "Okay, no matter how it came from, I want to know, what does Brother Lu mean by taking it? Do you want to hire our mercenary group to help escort it? The goods worth 1 million gold coins are indeed a super big business, this is welcome!"
Lu Chengfeng nodded and said, "If it were someone else, he would definitely ask him to escort him directly." In this Qingying trial, I owe Bajian a favor. So, I'm giving you two options. First, to help escort the escort to Faro Bay, I will pay a commission of 100,000 gold coins. Second, I will only give a guaranteed commission of 20,000 gold, and then I can share some of the 1 million gold coins to you. You prepare your own goods and transport them together, and the part you earn over there is yours, and I won't take any of it. ”
"You mean really?"
The Sword Boss's breathing suddenly became rapid, and he leaned back sharply, taking a deep breath, as if to calm the excitement in his heart. After thinking about it for a while, he suddenly raised his head and asked, "How much share can you give us of this batch of goods?"
At this time, the other three masters, who had already roughly heard the matter, also pricked up their ears and listened to Lu Chengfeng's answer. The pious look was like that of a condemned prisoner listening to the judge's sentence. Oh no, it's supposed to be fanatical believers listening to the Divine Voice.
Their performance made Lu Chengfeng very satisfied.
To be honest, this million gold coins can't be made up by Lu Chengfeng alone. Although he has a lot of money on him, the most important thing is the batch of colorless crystals from the Black Wolf Bandits. Excluding those, as well as the expenses during this period, the funds that Lu Chengfeng could use would not exceed 400,000 gold coins. This is already all that Lu Chengfeng has looted after so many kills, and it also includes the realization of those materials, pills, and equipment.
Because the colorless crystal blocks are extremely useful and extremely rare, Lu Chengfeng has no intention of selling them. He was going to give himself a share of 400,000 gold coins this time, and the rest could be taken out. Of course, Lu Chengfeng will not be so stupid and hand over the bottom line directly. In that case, the Sword Mercenary Group would be much less grateful. He just touched his chin, made a reluctant look, and finally said: "Let's see how much you can come up with, but at most 200,000, oh forget it, at most 300,000, after all, I still expect to make a lot of money from this." ”
This is a figure reported after considering the amount of cash on hand of the Sword Mercenary Group, and no matter how much it is, they may not be able to get it.
"300,000 gold coins!"
This amount is already beyond the psychological defense line of the Sword Tyrant Mercenary Group.
For the sword boss, he also felt that Lu Chengfeng would give him 200,000 at most. Unexpectedly, Lu Chengfeng was so generous, and directly added fifty percent. If calculated in this way, their mercenary group can earn at least more than 200,000 gold coins after such a trip. Such a return, even if you take on several tasks of the same scale on weekdays, may not be comparable!
He was already very tempted in his heart, but he still pushed back with embarrassment: "So much...... We took three copies, and Brother Lu, you only have seven left. ”
Lu Chengfeng put on a generous expression, and said righteously: "I have always believed that everyone earns money, and the Sword Suppression Mercenary Group is my friend, giving away hundreds of thousands of gold coins is nothing!"
Regardless of whether it is sincere or not, just this domineering side leak is enough to move several high-level executives of Bajian.
The boss of the sword slapped his chest, took it down, and said, "Brother Lu, don't worry, we will take this job and guarantee to complete the task." With our ability, if we have 300,000 gold coins, we will be able to prepare and load the ship by tonight at the latest. Escort along the way, we will definitely not let you down. If there are bandits who dare to rob it, our mercenary group will fight to the last man!"
Lu Chengfeng showed a pleasant smile and stretched out his hand to him: "Then, the cooperation is pleasant." ”
The two shook it hard, finalized the contract, and then agreed on the specific details.
As an old mercenary, the boss of the sword is very familiar with the business process. He first discussed it carefully with a few companions and let them know the details, and then calculated with Lu Chengfeng: "The price of magic crystal ore in Kaiyang is about two thousand gold coins a ton. If it's a lot, maybe it can be cheaper. This means that one million gold coins is at least 500 tons. Because it is now the winter break of the wind tide, and it is a headwind, counting the convoy personnel and the consumption on the road, it is necessary to hire at least one large flying ship, plus four medium ships to load. ”
Speaking of this, he asked again: "I don't know if Brother Lu has a connection with the flying ship?"
Lu Chengfeng waited for him to ask this, and when he heard this, he shook his head and said, "After the business is in hand, I will go straight to our mercenary group, and I haven't been in a hurry to contact him." ”
"Then we'll have it all on you. After taking such a large sum of money from Lu Chengfeng, the boss of the sword was also very hardworking, and he said: "The big business of one million gold coins can't be sloppy." The fleet of ships to be contacted must be very reliable. Our mercenary group has been running all year round, and we are very familiar with this and have reliable partners. Please rest assured, Brother Lu, the boat will be ready tonight, and the rent of the boat will be ours. ”
"No, no, the commission for five airships is not a small amount. Since the initiator is me, naturally I will hand it over!" Lu Chengfeng refused.
Even if the boss of the sword is pretending, it is impossible to just push and give in, and continue to persuade: "Brother Lu doesn't know, we have an agreement with the people of the fleet. If you rent their boat, it is much cheaper than outsiders, and there are discounts. Thanks to Brother Lu, who can afford to take care of us so much, I can't let you pay for this money!"
Lu Chengfeng was indeed preparing to let the people who overlord the sword contact the ship, but this rent was indeed not a small number. If the sword overlord is asked to pay, I am afraid that they will have at least one-third less income. If you deduct the risk of consumption along the way, you will earn a lot less. So, Lu Chengfeng insisted that he pay. In the end, both sides took a step back, and the ship was contacted by the Sword Mercenary Group, but the rent was paid in proportion to their respective shares.
This is very fair, and it is already cheap for Bajian, and the four of them have no objections.
"By the way, where are you going to get the goods from?" Lu Chengfeng suddenly thought of this question and couldn't help asking.
