Chapter 509: "Branch" is so wild?!
"this……"
Seeing Colin nod again, Shana knew that what he said was true, just like last time...
At that time, she had a "huge sum" of more than 400 points in her pocket, and wanted to buy back the bone spur prop made from the skeleton of the previous generation of saints from the other party.
Thinking of this, Shana couldn't help but feel lucky that she didn't take it out, otherwise it would be very embarrassing.
Then, she not only didn't get her things back, but also gave them a shield...
He was also shocked by the huge amount of money Colin spent, which was thousands of points.
Of course, in the subsequent contacts, I found that the tasks on my side seemed to be a little lower than those of others.
The reasons for this are not yet clear.
However, Shana originally thought that a few thousand points was an amount that she had never dared to think about in the past.
But the man in front of her refreshed her three views...
"If you're not satisfied with anything, we can discuss it further..."
Colin looked at Shana's expressionless face and was a little unsure, but during this "confrontation", he suddenly remembered that during this period of time, every time he returned, the other party would give him various super powerful golden seals and portable buffs.
Think again about what you have done...
The original
Well, it does seem a bit unauthentic?
Just after he finished speaking, Shana was silent for a few seconds, then suddenly nodded:
"It's already a lot. I... I can't even imagine that I can have so many points..."
"Ah...isn't this really a mockery?"
Colin secretly hissed in his heart, but before he could say anything this time, a line of information popped up on his retina.
[Special Event: "Have you completed the event to give 20,000 points to the 'Light Chaser'?"]
【Note: A certain amount of points will be deducted as a handling fee for this transaction.】
…
"The branch office's mission was quite timely, but there's actually a handling fee?"
"It seems that the specific ratio is not mentioned, but it shouldn't be that high..."
Colin muttered in his heart, it was a pity that employees had no way to directly trade points privately, otherwise he would never let the branch take advantage of it for free.
Then, he looked at Shana, confirmed again, and started the transaction, transferring the corresponding points.
At this moment, even though Shana didn't have much pursuit of wealth, she couldn't help but look at her pocket.
A number she never dared to imagine lay there quietly.
While she was shocked by the huge amount of points, she couldn't help but feel a little sad about the handling fee that had just been deducted.
"Hiss, two thousand points are gone..."
Shana clenched her fists imperceptibly, puffed out her cheeks, and pumped two thousand at a time.
This thing called handling fee is more than what she would get if she faced the ancient god directly!
"What two thousand points?"
Colin heard her mumbling and asked curiously.
"Handling fee?"
"Two thousand in handling fees? That's fucking ten percent!"
Colin was surprised. Even at the Vampire Bank, the rate for withdrawing money or transferring money would never exceed 5%. How could it be so high here?
But, think about it.
It may be difficult to conduct transactions across companies, so it is understandable that some fees are collected.
"I'll go back and find out from 'Ms. Rabbit' why the fees are so high here. I'll see if there's any way to give the corresponding share directly to Ms. Shana to avoid the middleman's cut..."
A thought flashed through Colin's mind.
Then, seeing that Shana's expression seemed a little distressed and a little angry about the two thousand points, he couldn't help but feel like laughing.
"Maybe it's because of some troublesome things behind the scenes, so there was some loss. Well, the problem is not serious. I will make up the handling fee ..."
Colin said with a smile, and looking at Shana's expression, he could roughly feel...
What she just said didn't seem to be a mockery, maybe... a joke?
After thinking about it, Colin felt that the matter was almost correct and should be reasonable.
Of course, in this brief moment, he also thought of another possibility, that is, what Shana said and all her expressions were real.
She really felt that more than 20,000 points was a lot, so she showed emotions such as shock.
But...how is that possible?
Colin immediately ruled out this wrong option.
After all, according to past experience, she could earn tens of thousands of points even if she did nothing. If she were to do it in person, the price would probably be over six figures.
In this case, how could she possibly feel that 20,000 points were satisfactory?
But speaking of it...
Miss Shana's missions, which are said to be about taking advantage of others' misfortunes to make money, do make a lot of money, but they are a bit unethical.
I feel like one day I'm going to be taken care of.
Kelin felt that he had to find some time to talk to the other party about this.
Although tasks are usually assigned by the company, employees themselves also have certain rights to communicate.
At this time, when Shana heard Colin say that he would pay her the full handling fee, she immediately shook her head: "No, no need, this is enough, um..."
Very, very, very enough.
Looking at the money in her pocket, Shana didn't even know how to use it.
Generally speaking, you can't eat that much black bread.
But it can provide a safety net.
But now we have Mr. Colin's vast farmland. As long as we manage it well as Colin said, we can basically feed everyone. In the future, if we have the opportunity to build a granary and so on, we may even have the opportunity to store up next year's food as he said, and eventually achieve self-sufficiency.
A future she hadn't dared to imagine just a few years ago.
that is……
Shana felt that it would be difficult to ask for the bone spur and the shield back.
"Really, I don't know how to thank you for these points." Shana couldn't help but say softly.
"Is she happy because the money arrived just in time?"
Ke Lin seemed to sense something and was infected by the other party's emotions. He couldn't help but say, "How about a dance?"
Hearing this, Shana almost immediately shook her head: "That's not possible, I don't know how to do it..."
She pursed her lips and didn't mention the fact that she danced for others later on, which was not appropriate.
After a pause, she tilted her head and asked curiously, "Is the number of points this time due to the 'hunger ' fragment?"
"About the same."
Colin nodded, sensing the curiosity in Shana's icy blue eyes, and said, "This mission is 'Hunger', and the points are probably over 50,000..."
After deducting his and Ms. Shana's appearance fees from the 80,000 points, this is roughly the amount.
But just as he finished speaking, he felt something was not right.
To be honest, the "Hunger" fragment should be worth more than 100,000 points. It is hard to say the exact amount, but in terms of points, the "Mad Fire" can be regarded as a partial deduction to a certain extent.
Still a large part of the deduction!
hiss……
It wasn't that bad, but when he really stretched out his fingers and stretched them, Colin felt even more uneasy.
But Shana didn't notice this. At this moment, when she heard Colin talk about the value of "hunger", her eyelids closed slightly, and her pupils lit up slightly -
So valuable!
This "hunger" fragment is much more valuable than the ancient god who beat her so hard that she vomited blood and lay bedridden for half a month!
Unfortunately, the "hunger" she had felt so far seemed to have all been returned. No, there were three in total, two of which had been recovered, and one she had come into contact with long ago, which was closer to a conceptual form than the other two, but later disappeared...
Later, when she sensed this part again, it had already taken root in Mr. Colin's body.
Thinking of this, Shana couldn't help but glance at Colin, causing the latter to shudder inexplicably.
“It always feels a bit dangerous.”
Colin wondered if this was a small warning from Shana.
But at this moment, he suddenly heard the lady who was becoming more and more beautiful say:
"Mr. Colin, if I sense the fragments of 'Hunger', can I still carry it out with you?"
She felt that if it was the task issued by the parchment in her hand, she probably wouldn't be able to get more than 50,000 points. Based on her observations during this period, it might be several times less !
"Of course..."
Colin didn't know if the other party was teasing or what, but he nodded anyway. However, after he finished speaking, he suddenly noticed something and asked in surprise, "Do you know the whereabouts of the other 'Hunger' fragments?"
"I'm not sure, but I've encountered this before when I was on some advent missions..."
Shana nodded and told her about an experience that happened about six or seven years ago.
At that time, the mission was probably that she was summoned from some unknown world by a person who looked like a queen or some other mission, and the requirement was to assist her in participating in some war, becoming the ultimate winner, and obtaining some trophies.
There were also other people in this war who summoned some participants like her who came from other worlds.
One of them, who descended, possessed the same power as "hunger"...
"Good boy, are you going to fight the Holy Grail War?"
Colin muttered to himself, then listened to Shana's next words: "Among the people I know, it seems that you are the only one who can mobilize the power of 'hunger'. Is that person you?"
"No, I don't know him either..." He shook his head.
Six or seven years ago? If nothing unexpected happened to him six or seven years ago, he would have just entered the first year of high school...
Unexpectedly, at that time, Shana had already started working for the company.
After thinking about it, Colin asked for some relevant details and was basically sure that the man did indeed master some of the power granted by the "Hunger" fragment...
I just don't know whether this power was given to him by "hunger" or controlled through means like "bonfire".
There is a big difference between the two.
"Who got the trophy in the end?" Colin asked curiously.
"It should be the one behind me, but I defeated the last one, and my clone reached its limit. That was my first clone, and the control wasn't that good, so I came back. So I don't know if she got the thing."
Shana briefly explained the result, then shook her head: "Unfortunately, it seems there is no way to find the other party now."
"That's true, unless he is a member of the company and uses internal means to send signals to 'Ms. Rabbit', just like 'Ms. Thorn'." Colin thought to himself.
"As for the other one, I encountered it once, and it was also a chaotic and terrifying world. This is a bit possible."
Shana took out her parchment and said, "I'll see if I can find more information about that place. If I do, I'll tell you."
"Okay." Colin nodded.
As long as Shana gives the address, "Ms. Rabbit" will definitely respond——
But looking at it this way, "Ms. Rabbit" wants to take over Shana's "branch" because it also controls the areas where multiple "Hunger" fragments are located?
However, judging from its previous performance, it may not be easy.
However, they did not continue to discuss this matter in depth. After a brief chat for a while, Shana began to test whether Colin's strength had increased this time. They both entered the "Nightmare Lantern" and started to rest for a while until night.
After finishing daily training, Colin walked out of the chapel, ready to check whether the employees had been slacking off late at night.
By the way, let's see how the talking seeds are doing...
In the chapel, Shana sent some of her clones to follow Colin, while her main body sat in front of the campfire, continuing to recuperate and repair various injuries that had not yet healed.
However, when Colin left and she was concentrating on recuperating, she suddenly seemed to realize something and pulled out a yellowed parchment from the sleeve of her left wrist.
Then I opened the "mall" function above, and was surprised to find that there were some other things on the shelves that originally only had ordinary items such as "black bread", "sour and hard black noodles" and drinking water.
【Multi-purpose base vehicle (specially optimized version)】
Description: A deployable mobile base vehicle with an area of approximately 50 square meters. It can be powered by injecting energy using points and has basic functional templates such as a "lounge" and a "medical room."
【Note: You can expand the functions to a limited extent by consuming points and corresponding materials.】
[Price: 5000 points.]
…
"This is……"
Shana took a look and it seemed to be the very useful "base vehicle" brought by Mr. Colin?
But it's so expensive, 5,000 points per car...
But if they are similar, then it is still very useful!
After thinking about it, she informed Colin, who was visiting the farmland with her, through her clone, and asked him to come over and help her decide whether there was anything necessary to buy.
But when Colin came over and saw the thing on it, he was shocked.
This fucking...
"I left my base car here for the past two weeks and didn't bring it back. So it just cracked it?"
Colin was completely stunned.
The most ridiculous thing is that it’s fine if they just imitate and crack it, but they actually sell it right in front of him!
Sell it to him!
Colin almost laughed out of anger.
Isn’t the “branch company” approach a bit too wild?
"How about it, Mr. Colin, is this worth buying?" Shana raised her arm and touched him gently.
“It’s not worth it.”
Colin came back to his senses from his daze, shook his head decisively, took a look at the name that said "specially optimized version", which was actually a reduced-spec castrated version, and couldn't help but sneer.
"500 points is still something I can consider, but 5,000 points. Back then, the original version of the Heavy Industry World cost less than a thousand points. This price is seriously overpriced. You must be crazy about money."
"Besides, the base vehicle we have in our territory is more or less enough, so there's no need to get one."
Colin decisively gave a suggestion of no recommendation.
At the same time, he felt vaguely that the branch's personality looked a little familiar...
"Oh, is that so..." Shana nodded thoughtfully.
However, at this moment, a line of tasks popped up on the parchment.
