Volume 2 Ghost Army Chapter 343 Leading the Way Commission
Elena didn't say anything, but just raised the corners of her mouth and stretched out her hands to gesture in front of Li Jiu.
"One hundred thousand Alliance Coins?" Li Jiu asked with a smile.
"Alliance Coin? So you are a mercenary from the Lurker Alliance..." Elena suddenly frowned and a hesitant look appeared on her face.
"Hmph! What's wrong with us lurking in the alliance? If you don't want to do business, you don't have to do it. At worst, we can find someone else!" Seeing this scene, Bella couldn't help but explode.
"Bella..." Li Jiu smiled and shook his head at Bella, signaling her to be patient for the time being.
"Since you are from the alliance, the compensation must be increased by half. I want 200,000! Otherwise, forget it. You can go find whoever you want!" Elena seemed to have a bad temper. She glared at Bella and said with a pout.
Seeing the girl's firm attitude, Li Jiu was actually delighted.
Because people with temper are often capable people.
Maybe the girl in front of me is really a qualified guide.
"Haha, 200,000 is 200,000, no problem at all." Li Jiu said with a smile: "However, before I advance you half of the reward, I want to confirm whether the girl is really familiar with the terrain here."
Money is no longer of much significance to Li Jiu, because the funds he has now are enough for him. After all, not to mention the two-star VIP card he got from the Snake King, which may have more than 1 billion Union Coins, the 200 million bet he placed in the district-level auditions alone will double to 400 million after he wins the district-level championship. This money is enough for him to create a mercenary group.
All Li Jiu needs now is battle merit points!
Because, after having enough funds, he only needs to earn military merit points as quickly as possible and upgrade his rank to major or above, so that he can create a mercenary group.
If spending a little more money could increase the efficiency of earning military merit points, he would naturally be very happy.
"Hmph, whatever you want." Elena snorted, with a proud smile on her face, and said nonchalantly: "I can't guarantee anything else, but if it's a place that even I'm not familiar with, I'm afraid you won't find a better candidate than me even if you search the entire Binhai City."
"Well, let's set off now without further ado." Li Jiu nodded with satisfaction and turned to say to the team members.
Although everyone had some opinions about the attitude of the unruly girl, seeing that Li Jiu planned to hire her, they had no choice but to nod.
Afterwards, Li Jiu and others walked out of the bar with Elena.
"Elena, be sure to be careful!" The bartender's voice came from behind.
"Got it, brother!" Elena responded without turning her head, and walked out of the bar.
…
Not far from the bar, in a remote and deserted alley, Li Jiu and others walked in with Elena.
"Girl, the place we are going is here..." Li Jiu raised his wrist, and a blue beam of light shot out from the intelligent light brain above, forming a small virtual screen in front of him.
A simple map was displayed on the screen.
"So that's the place you're going to..." Looking at the map on the screen, Elena frowned and pondered.
Seeing the girl's reaction, Li Jiu's expression changed and he couldn't help but feel secretly happy.
Because judging from the girl's reaction, it at least shows that she has been to that place.
"To be honest, I haven't been to that place many times. After all, it's more than a thousand miles away from us. No one has ever wanted to go to a place so far away from Binhai City before..." Elena said solemnly with a serious look on her face. Then she rolled her cunning eyes and muttered after thinking for a moment, "It seems that my asking price this time is still too low... If I had known that you were going to that place, I would have at least doubled the reward..."
"What? You want to double it again! Aren't you too greedy, woman? Do you know how much money we can earn from this trip?!" Bella became angry when she heard the girl's muttering.
You know, the total reward for their mission this time is only 3 million Alliance Coins, which is just over 300,000 per team member.
And now, in order to find a guide, Li Jiu spent 300,000 yuan, plus the 200,000 yuan promised to the girl as a guide fee. This is already a huge loss!
However, at this time the girl was still greedy and wanted to double the commission. How could this not make people angry?
"Bella, it doesn't matter. As long as this girl can take us where we want to go as quickly as possible, it doesn't matter even if the commission is multiplied several times." Li Jiu said with a faint smile.
Hearing Li Jiu's words, the girl couldn't help but look at him a few more times, thinking to herself, I didn't expect this guy to be a little rich. He didn't seem to care about money at all...
"Humph! When did I ever say I would ask you to pay twice the commission?" Elena retracted her gaze, snorted, and glared at Bella unwillingly. "Although I like money, I am still trustworthy. Since we have already agreed on the commission, it will not be changed. Although I did suffer a great loss this time, the only thing to blame is that I did not ask clearly in advance, so I have no choice but to admit my defeat."
Bella was speechless after hearing what the girl said. The other party had clearly asked for a sky-high guide fee, but she spoke as if she was really at a big disadvantage...
"So, young lady, you are sure you can take us there?" Li Jiu asked with a smile.
"I can't say for sure. After all, this is a journey of more than a thousand miles, and there are defenders' strongholds everywhere on the road. Who knows if there will be any emergencies." Elena shook her head. "It's no problem to take you there, but I can't guarantee your safety on the road. I can only do my best to help you avoid the enemies on the road. But if you encounter an emergency, you can only rely on yourselves. Let me make it clear first, if you can't protect yourselves by then, I will just leave."
Elena's words were very direct, but Li Jiu didn't care. After all, she was only responsible for leading the way. As for the enemies encountered on the road, he couldn't expect a young girl to help.
"Okay, no problem. Can you take us there in one day?" Li Jiu nodded.
Since the mission lasts less than four days in total, and considering the time it will take to return, everyone must reach the mission location within one day.
"One day? So urgent..." The girl was a little surprised, then thought for a moment and said, "If you are in a hurry, you can only hire a hovercraft."
"No problem. Miss, do you know where I can hire a taxi?" Li Jiu said with a smile.
"That's easy. I have a medium-sized flying car at home, which is big enough for ten people." The girl raised her lips, with a sly look in her eyes. "However, if you want to rent it, you need to pay an additional 20,000 Alliance Coins, plus a deposit of 100,000 Alliance Coins."
