Five Hundred and Sixty-Six: The Long Family's 'Dragon Clan' Mercenary Group
The next day, early in the morning.
When Mr. Huo Jin got up, he found that Xu Cheng and others were getting into the hole one after another. The hole was originally mined by the Falcon mercenaries. There was a river nearby. It was a place surrounded by mountains and rivers, but the vegetation was a bit... few.
From outside the cave, one could hear Li Wei shouting and getting excited.
Hawking actually wanted to go down and have a look, but he was too patient to go down.
Seeing his face-saving look, Xu Cheng said to him, "Come down and take a look if you want."
Hawking couldn't help but walked down the cave and walked in. His eyes were stunned.
The cave was originally connected to the river outside. There was a piece of sand here, a sand river to be precise. Li Wei and others had hoes and wire mesh inside to dig things out, but they dug them out and put them in a bucket. Judging from the materials inside, if Hawking guessed correctly, it was rough diamond.
Xu Cheng held up a small rough stone that was only as big as a thumb and smiled at him: "Let's take a look at this one. It's colorful. It's estimated to be five carats! The color and longitude are definitely world-class. There are many similar rough stones. Yesterday It may scare you to find out that there are several kilograms of material in their inventory. How much do you think this river is worth if it is properly mined?"
Hawking smacked his lips. The rough stone he poked was worth a lot of money, not to mention the ones that were still being dug out and drained out.
Seeing his blank gaze, Xu Cheng smiled: "Perhaps, this is why some people are flocking to the mercenary land. I was originally short of money on how to trade and buy more arms in the future, but now I can rely on These are coming into circulation.”
Hawking asked: "Can you get it out and sell it?"
Xu Chengdao: "It's not possible for now, but slowly, we will find a way to build a transportation road that belongs to us. Now we will only be intercepted by other allied forces halfway out, and the gain outweighs the loss."
As he spoke, Xu Cheng stuffed the largest colored rough stone into his trouser bag, hoping to make a wedding ring for his wife when he had the chance.
At this time, Luo Yi, who was in charge of standing guard, ran over and said, "Brother Cheng, someone is coming."
Xu Cheng picked up a towel and wiped his hands, then jumped up and glared at him before getting out of the cave without using an escalator.
At the gate of the town, one or three armed vehicles came.
Their clothes were all embroidered with the 'dragon' icon.
Seeing this icon, Xu Cheng's eyes suddenly narrowed.
"Hey, Chinese?" A bald man in the car asked curiously after glancing at Xu Cheng's complexion.
Xu Cheng nodded: "What's the matter?"
"What's the matter?" The bald man and others in the car were all amused.
"Is this your first day in the mercenary land?" The bald man glanced at the flag of the alien mercenary group with disdain, nodded and smacked his lips: "No wonder, I have never seen this bad icon, it is probably a new one. The mercenary group, but we have no control over it. We are just following orders. As per the old rules, we should pay the taxes and fees."
Xu Cheng frowned.
At this time, Luo Yi whispered to him beside him: "The big group eats the small group, and the small group hugs the group. That's it. They are the mercenary group of the Long family. One-tenth of the mercenary land in this area is For their territory, each regiment must pay a fee to the affiliated regiment, which is, to put it bluntly, a protection fee.”
Xu Cheng nodded, looked at the group of people and asked, "Should the Falcon mercenaries be handed over, right? Why do we still need to accept them?"
"Nonsense, we only recognize the flag and not the time. I heard that the falcon was killed last night. I came here to see it today. It's true. You guys are so capable. You actually dare to swallow the falcon. Yes, but the rules cannot be broken, even if they are from the Xia Kingdom. Likewise, here, there are no compatriots, only allies or not."
Xu Cheng curled his lips: "How much do you pay?"
Baldhead: "According to head count."
The head count is to control the small groups from expanding the mercenary camp. Small groups actually don't have much money, and they can't make much money by robbing and killing, so if they expand the number of people, they will have to pay a fee. In this way, once they run out of money, they will not dare to expand. This is also a strategy of the big group.
If you have more and more people, they will know that you must have found crude oil or some kind of ore, and they will kill or destroy the small group and eat the cake.
"We currently only have 9 armed members. How much does it cost?"
"What, nine?" The bald head smiled: "Who are you fooling? Can nine kill the Falcon? I can see from here that there are more than nine people over there. We need to go in and count the number of people."
Xu Chengdao: "They are all invited construction engineers."
Baldhead: "That doesn't matter!"
Xu Cheng blocked the road directly in front of their truck. He raised his head and looked at the bald man with dangerous eyes. The latter also looked at him condescendingly in the car.
"If you don't want our 'Dragon Clan' to break through your three-point territory, it's best not to look at me with that arrogant look."
Luo Yi pulled Xu Cheng and reminded him in a low voice: "Brother Cheng, be patient, now is not the time to break up with them."
Xu Cheng then moved away, and the car passed him directly and stopped on the street in the center of the town. Then the group of 'Dragon Clan' people in the car started counting people in the entire town in a somewhat arrogant manner.
The bald man stood in the car and stared at Xu Cheng and asked, "Are you the leader of the alien mercenary group?"
Xu Cheng nodded.
The bald head looked at him with a warning look and said: "You'd better be honest in the future. This is not a country where you can call the police. Sometimes trouble comes from your mouth. In the future, you'd better cooperate with us and pay as much as you need to pay. Otherwise, you can Tell us that we don't need the protection of our 'Dragon Clan', I believe there will be other homeless mercenary groups coming to beat you and replace you in a minute."
At this time, his men came over and reported to him the number of people.
The bald head snorted coldly at Xu Cheng: "A total of 500,000 US dollars, valid for three months. Also, what are you looking for so many engineers for? Let me tell you, without our permission, we are not allowed to build towns of a certain size. My It means that you can’t open a city for business purposes, do you understand?”
"It's just a simple matter of coming here to repair it. There is no truce zone." Xu Cheng said impatiently.
"That's best."
At this moment, someone called over: "Boss, there is a hole here."
The bald man jumped out of the car and was about to go over. Xu Cheng suddenly stopped him and said, "It's just a hole where our weapons are stored. Don't make a fuss."
"Really?" Baldhead asked suspiciously, "Then why are you nervous?"
He insisted on going over.
Xu Cheng's pulling force on him intensified at that moment, and his eyes and the aura around him exuded murderous intent, instantly making the bald head feel suffocated, and he found that he couldn't move his arms.
"I told you, don't go there!" Xu Cheng reminded again word for word.
The bald man swallowed and stared at Mr. Xu Cheng for a long time. Finally, he shouted to his subordinates over there: "Come here and withdraw."
(I will send you Chapter 7 first. I will stay up late tonight to continue writing. You will probably be able to read five or six chapters when you wake up tomorrow morning.)
