Chapter 199: Alger's Request
Qingfeng nodded and said: "Of course this is no problem, but digging people in the corner of the wall is not a shameful thing, we can't do it blatantly, I think you can talk to her secretly for a while, and see if she has any intention of leaving the mercenary union to go to us." ”
Elena nodded and said, "Okay, I'll go when she comes back." ”
Qingfeng raised his head and smiled apologetically at the fourteen mercenaries who were sitting on the side and applied for the squad leader, "I'm sorry, let you just wait." I won't say more if you're polite, let's see who comes over for the interview first?" Everyone looked at each other when they heard this, and finally their eyes all fell on the middle-aged man who had just walked in the front and was also the strongest.
The middle-aged man nodded in gratitude to the others, got up and sat down on the chair in front of the Qingfeng table, and put the information he had filled out on the table.
Qingfeng picked up the middle-aged man's profile, glanced at it and said, "Captain Alger, you are the leader of the Flame Lion Mercenary Regiment, why did you join our Tiger Mercenary Regiment?"
Alger smiled bitterly and said, "Do you still need to ask about this? Of course, it's for the money." ”
Qingfeng laughed and said: "It's direct enough, it's refreshing enough, but I think with Your Excellency's cultivation and strength, it shouldn't be difficult to make money, right? ”
Alger said undeniably: "You are right, there are many merchants and forces who have recruited me many times, but I have refused, because I don't want to be someone else's minion, I want to use my own skills to earn the gold I need." ”
Qingfeng clapped his hands and said, "Okay, that's enough, that's right." Your request is to hire you as well as the other members of your mercenary group. Can you tell us about your subordinates?"
Alger frowned and hesitated. A little embarrassed to say: "Actually, I have another request, the information is not written, I want to interview you in person." Qingfeng nodded and made a gesture of please.
Alger turned his head to look at the person who was sitting on a chair not far away and was not squinting, but secretly pricked up his ears and eavesdropping, and said apologetically, "Can we find a quiet place to talk alone?"
Qingfeng was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then suddenly smiled and said, "Of course." Let's go over there. After speaking, he got up and walked to the innermost part of the test field, Alva didn't expect Qingfeng to agree so happily, so he was stunned for a moment and got up to follow.
Walking away from others, Qingfeng and Alger stood opposite each other, Qingfeng smiled indifferently and said, "What are the requirements can be said now?"
Alger hesitated, feeling that his request was a bit excessive, but he was in dire need of money now, so he finally gritted his teeth and said with a red face, "That's right." My partner and I can join the Tigers, but I want to pay five years of salary advances first. ”
Seeing Qingfeng's face was stunned. Alger explained: "It's not that I don't distrust the strength of your regiment, and I advance my salary because I have an urgent need, and I don't want to be a thug for those businessmen and magnates to harm others. But don't worry, I, Alger, will never do that kind of treacherous thing, and if you don't believe me, you can ask me about my character casually. And I promise, I'll do it for five years. ”
Qingfeng glanced at Alger and asked, "How many gold coins do you need?" I don't think your salary for five years is not enough, right?"
Alger was stunned when he heard this, and after reacting, he said with a face full of surprise, "You agreed to pay the salary advance?" Qingfeng smiled and nodded.
Alva was puzzled and said, "Why don't you ask me why I have advanced so much money?"
Qingfeng shrugged his shoulders and said, "That's your business, I just know that you are a member of our Tiger Mercenary Regiment, that's all." Of course, if you're willing to talk about it, I don't mind. ”
Alger quietly looked at Qingfeng for a long time, and said with admiration on his face: "It is worthy of being a person who can make such a big deal, I Alger has not served anyone before, just from your open-mindedness, I Alger obeyed you." ”
Then, Alger sighed and said, " Since we are already colleagues, I won't hide it from you, not long ago we took on a task of hunting the sixth-level demonic beast Black Anaconda, my daughter was accidentally bitten by the Black Anaconda, and now the toxin has been soaked into the meridians, if it is not treated in time, it will be life-threatening, and the antidote to the black anaconda toxin, there is only a medical hall opened by the city lord near Ula City, but the medicine is very precious, it requires three thousand gold coins, although I have some savings over the years, but it is still not enough, at that time I was hesitating whether to accept the solicitation of those rich people, but I happened to see the recruitment information you released that day, although I don't know what you are doing with such a scattered mercenary group, but I know you're not short of money, so I'm going to come over and give it a try. ”
Qingfeng smiled and said, "If I don't agree to your request, will you sell yourself to those rich people?" The word selling made Alger a little embarrassed, but he still nodded and admitted.
Qing Feng didn't answer Alva immediately, but closed his eyes and pretended to be pensive, actually communicating with Ouyang Feng, Hongsheng, and Mingyue. Qingfeng told Alger about it, and repeatedly emphasized that he had a very good impression of Alger, and at first glance he was an upright and trustworthy person who did what he said, and then asked Ouyang Feng and Hongshang if there was a way to get rid of the poison of the black anaconda.
Ouyang Feng didn't say anything about the black water python poison, but pondered for a moment and asked: "Qingfeng, just now you said that the city lord recruited that Alger, and then Alger refused, recently his daughter was bitten by the black water python when she was doing a mission, and the antidote is only available in the city lord's shop, don't you think this matter is a little strange?"
Qingfeng replied, "I have thought about this, and I can see that Alger also has suspicions, so he doesn't want to be a slave to that city lord, I think it should be so." ”
Ouyang Feng said in a heavy tone: "Qingfeng, this matter is not just a matter of conspiracy and framing, I am telling you this to remind you that this Alger is likely to be the person that the city lord of Ulla wants to recruit, if we take him in and help him, we will indirectly offend the city lord, that is a Jindan-level master." Qing Feng's heart sank when he heard this, after all, when they came to Ula City, they planned to collect all kinds of required materials and concentrate on cultivation peacefully, if they offended the city lord here because of one person, it would be impossible for them to cultivate quietly.
Qingfeng said cautiously: "Senior brother, do you mean we don't want this Alger?"
Ouyang Feng was silent for a long time and said: "You can do this, since the mercenary group is handed over to you, no matter what decision you make, we will support you, but if you can't do it, we will change places again." ”
Mingyue echoed and said: "That's it, if you want me to say, what's wrong with the Jindan-level master? It's not that we can't be killed, but we have killed several of them with our own hands, it's a big deal, let's do it again, if that thing dares to trouble us, even if we can't beat it, we'll turn him upside down and leave." Although Hongshang didn't say anything, everyone knew very well that her silence represented a supportive attitude, otherwise the outspoken Hongshang would have jumped out against it.
With the unhesitating support of his senior sister and brother, Qingfeng was moved in his heart and at the same time, a heroic feeling arose, and he laughed and said: "Okay, as long as everyone is together, let any city lord and force fuck it, Lao Tzu is not afraid." ”
Ouyang Feng and Mingyue also laughed, and Ouyang Feng commented: "Qingfeng's last sentence is really remarkable, I am almost enthusiastic about what I said." ”
Hongshang said in surprise: "Qingfeng, when did you become so vulgar?
Qingfeng smiled and said: "Senior sister, you don't know, I feel that talking like this is very pleasant, and it is much more arrogant than those who are so arrogant, if you don't believe it, you can try it." ”
Hongshang snorted and said, "Bah, I don't." By the way, I found the information about the black anaconda you said, but its poison is quite special, but I still have a lot of detoxification pills here, it is estimated that even if the low-level detoxification pill is not cured, the medium-level detoxification pill I dare to guarantee that it can definitely detoxify. ”
Mingyue muttered in a low voice: "Detoxification Pill, low-level five-speed low-grade spars, middle-level ones cost more than a dozen, and a piece of spar is worth almost 10,000 gold coins, so it's still cost-effective to use gold coins to buy antidotes." ”
Hongshang smiled with relief and said, "How did Mingyue become so good?" ”
Mingyue smiled and said: "Of course, I have been with my senior sister for so long, if I don't grow a little more, it would be too much to say, I'm not like Qingfeng, I don't want to make progress, I know how to pick up girls in one day." Qingfeng was so angry that Mingyue was red-faced, but it was so, and he didn't know how to refute it.
Ouyang Feng laughed and said: "Okay, let's not talk about Qingfeng, we just know this heavy color and light friend, why bother to say it, right? But Qingfeng, I have to remind you, don't be bitten by Elena's chick and suck you dry." ”
Without waiting for Qingfeng to get angry, Ouyang Feng changed the topic in a timely manner and said: "Let's talk about Alger, I don't think this is the time to care about the cost, since Qingfeng thinks he is good and worth recruiting, then let's simply let him owe us more favors, so that he can't change it for the rest of his life, if he is really as heroic as Qingfeng said, not an ungrateful person, maybe he may become our core member." In this way, Qingfeng, you let him take his daughter to the villa, and I will go back, if you think that Alger is okay and worth recruiting, my senior sister and I will play a scene in a while, and at the same time detoxify his daughter, we also have to make him grateful to Dade, isn't it just a pill? ”
Mingyue Yin and Yang said strangely: "Dingzhong, why do I think you are more despicable than that city lord? This method is too disgraceful, right?"
Qingfeng finally found a chance to take revenge, and sneered: "Dingzhong is so despicable, obscene, shameless, and shameless, it's been so long, why haven't you gotten used to it Mingyue?" (To be continued......)
