Volume 3: Rise of the God of War Chapter 527 Is there enough money?
"Haha, of course not." Li Jiu shook his head and smiled, "Captain, I came to you this time to tell you that I want to create a mercenary group."
"What? You want to create a mercenary group?" Donna was slightly stunned and asked in surprise.
"Yes, that's right." Li Jiu nodded. "Captain, you should also know that creating a mercenary group is the wish of almost every mercenary. After all, a mercenary who doesn't want to be a general is not a good soldier."
"And now that I have reached the rank of major, I naturally want to create my own mercenary group as soon as possible."
After hearing this, Donna put down the wine glass in her hand, and a thoughtful look appeared between her brows.
"I understand your feelings. It's not impossible for you to create a mercenary group, but..." After thinking for a moment, Donna frowned slightly.
"Captain, just what?" Li Jiu asked with a slight change of expression.
To be honest, before coming here, he actually considered that Donna might have some concerns after learning about his idea of creating a mercenary group.
After all, Donna will still need to rely on herself in many things in the future, such as the God of War Competition and her own engagement issues.
Once he created his own mercenary group, he could completely sever ties with the Night Rose Mercenary Group at any time and no longer need to obey Donna's orders. This would inevitably be a concern for anyone.
However, since Li Jiu has considered these things, he is confident that he can convince Donna.
"It's just that creating a mercenary group is not as simple as you think. It requires a lot of conditions." Donna stared at Li Jiu and said solemnly: "The rank of major is only the most basic condition for creating a mercenary group."
"Besides that, you will also need to prepare a large amount of funds to build a mercenary base, recruit mercenaries, train mercenaries, and purchase various facilities. All of these require a large amount of money."
"Moreover, in the early stages of the mercenary group's establishment, you can't receive missions immediately, so you can't make money in a short period of time. At the same time, you have to bear all the expenses of the mercenary group on your own, which requires you to prepare a large sum of money to maintain the early operation of the mercenary group." Donna explained slowly: "Have you considered all this? Don't rush to answer me."
"I know that you may have earned more Alliance Coins than all other team members combined in the previous missions. But believe me, that little money is far from enough to support you to create a mercenary group, even if it is just the most basic one-star mercenary group!" Donna continued: "And I was able to create Night Rose with the funds secretly brought out from my family."
"So, if you really want to create a mercenary group, I suggest you prepare for it for a while. At the very least, complete a few more missions and accumulate enough initial start-up funds before you consider creating a mercenary group."
Although Donna also knew that Li Jiu was very powerful and had reaped rich rewards in previous missions.
But she was also very clear that the total amount of money Li Jiu earned from each mission was probably only about 10 or 20 million, and this amount of money was just a drop in the bucket for establishing a mercenary group.
"Captain, if it's just a matter of money, then you don't have to worry about it." After listening to Donna's suggestion, Li Jiu smiled indifferently and said indifferently.
Are you kidding? I am already a wealthy man with a net worth of over 1 billion. Let alone creating a mercenary group, it is enough to just buy a one-star mercenary group!
Even if we take a step back and say that the money he has on hand is not enough, he still has even larger financial reserves in Thunder Bank, Skeleton Gang, and Blood Wolf Mercenary Group!
Just taking out some money from these three would be enough to set up a one-star mercenary group!
"Oh? Are you confident?" Donna was a little surprised, but she just thought that Li Jiu didn't realize how much money it would take to create a mercenary group, so she curled her lips and smiled and said, "Then do you know how much money is needed to create a star mercenary group?"
"I'm not sure exactly how much is needed." Li Jiu smiled calmly, "But 200 million Alliance Coins should be enough, right?"
"Two hundred million?" Donna was slightly surprised and asked in disbelief, "You have two hundred million?"
"That's about right." Li Jiu smiled and nodded without comment.
"Oh?" Donna looked at Li Jiu with an incredible look and nodded slightly, "No wonder you are so confident."
"If you really have 200 million, it would be more than enough to create a one-star mercenary group. In fact, 100 million is enough to initially establish a one-star mercenary group." Donna said with a smile.
"Since funding is not a problem, can the captain agree to let me create a mercenary group and act as a guarantor for me to create a mercenary group?" Li Jiu asked directly.
"I can agree to your creation of a mercenary group, and I can also be your guarantor." Donna nodded with a smile , and then asked the question she really cared about, "However, what are you going to do about the God of War Tournament and our original agreement?"
If Li Jiu created his own mercenary group, it would mean that he would officially leave Night Rose!
Although he could leave Nightrose without looking for Donna, he would have to pay a huge penalty for breach of contract because of the agreement he signed when he joined Nightrose. At the same time, he couldn't even think of asking Donna to be his guarantor. Of course, the most important thing was that it would damage the relationship between him, Donna, and the other team members.
Therefore, Li Jiu never considered leaving Night Rose directly, but instead came to seek Donna's consent first.
But no matter what, after establishing the mercenary group, he is no longer a member of Night Rose, this is an unchangeable fact!
In this case, Donna will no longer be able to restrain him, and can no longer guarantee that he will do his best in the God of War Competition and in the matter he promised Donna.
"Captain, I think you should have considered these two things a long time ago. And maybe we think the same thing." Li Jiu said with a smile.
"Oh? Then why don't you tell me what you think?" Donna asked with a playful smile.
"Okay then." Li Jiu shook his head and smiled, "First of all, I can be sure that my creation of a mercenary group will definitely not affect either of these two things."
"Specifically, regarding the Ares Contest, after I create the mercenary group, you can serve as Night Rose's external aid and continue to participate in the next competition with the Fifth Squad. Moreover, the team honors obtained in the competition will belong to Night Rose."
