Chapter 499: Exploration
After listening to the other party's explanation, Qu Jianlei walked for a while and found an unmanned off-road vehicle parked there.
I stepped forward and asked, and sure enough, this off-road vehicle belonged to the owner of the small shop next door.
He went into the small shop to discuss with the owner, and rented a four-hour off-road vehicle for twenty silver dollars—a stationary one.
The shop owner doesn't really want to rent it, but it's just idle, so why offend a C-rank soldier?
Qu Jianlei bought a relatively cheap drink and put it on the roof of the car.
I don't know why, but when he was doing this, he always felt a little weird, and always wanted to buy the most expensive bottle and put it on the roof of the car.
In case an ugly woman took the drink, should I let her get in the car... Ah bah, what am I thinking?
An hour passed and no one cared.
Two hours passed and still no one cared.
At the beginning of the third hour, someone came and asked him what business he could provide.
The co-authors are those who engage in intermediaries and find out that this person is a newcomer, and no one has paid attention to it for a long time, and want to come up to contact the business.
Qu Jianlei didn't answer, just looked at the other party so coldly, half a minute later, the other party was defeated and retreated.
A minute later, someone came to ask the price again, this time it was serious business - bodyguards.
Someone came to this place full of dragons and snakes to recruit bodyguards? Qu Jianlei felt that this matter was less reliable than winning the five million lottery.
Second only to giving money to Qin Shihuang.
But I can't refuse it clearly, and finally someone asked for a price, "10,000 a day...you have to take care of your food!"
"Ten thousand?" Asking the price was a middle-aged man... a bit older, so surprised that he showed all 32 teeth.
Every tooth is white and complete, and the tooth shape is also neat. It must have been carefully maintained-it must be a rich person.
"This friend, C-level fighters don't seem to have such a market."
"That's what I do," Qu Jianlei replied flatly——do you like it or not.
"But..." The man pointed to the drink on the roof of the car, really speechless - you are below average!
"Yes," Qu Jianlei nodded, looking at the other party calmly, "My asking price is already very low, you have to be content."
"This..." The man hesitated and said, "Can I leave a watch number? I need to go back and ask for instructions."
"No," Qu Jianlei looked at the other party calmly, "The employer provides communication equipment, and my watch number is personal privacy."
The man's forehead began to sweat, "But I don't have a watch number, how can I negotiate with you about the employment?"
Qu Jianlei spread his hands, "Sorry, that's your business. For me, you'd better make a decision on the spot!"
If you can't make a decision on the spot, then don't talk about it, everyone is very busy, aren't they?
"Ah?" The man was dumbfounded when he heard the words. Are you talking about business?
At this moment, a voice came from the tiny earphone in his ear, "Ask him what price he will pay if he fails."
Qu Jianlei shook his head after hearing the report, "The price? There is no price... My life is the most expensive price!"
In fact, he himself didn't believe it.
He could pay the price for helping his friends, but the bodyguard... or this kind of stranger?
The point is that the purpose is also a mystery, he is stupid to risk his life.
The person in the headset spoke again, "Hehe, interesting, you ask him...will he be responsible for his words?"
Facing this question, Qu Jianlei nodded and replied without hesitation, "Yes!"
It's no wonder that he will be responsible, anyway, his current appearance is not real, and it will be a big deal to change his vest and make a comeback.
"Hehe, how dare you talk nonsense," the person in the headset sneered, "I have no sincerity at all."
"But it doesn't matter, promise him, it's only 10,000 a day, it's nothing."
The man calmed down before speaking, "Okay, other than that, what else do you want?"
You'd better be sensible, if you want to make other requests, then I can only refuse you.
"There is one more request..." Qu Jianlei murmured, "Get me a temporary residence permit!"
"Temporary residence permit..." The man couldn't spit out a mouthful of blood, "You don't have a temporary residence permit as a bodyguard...how can you win the trust of customers?"
Qu Jianlei didn't respond to his doubts at all, the explanation was to cover up, and to cover up was to tell the truth.
The man waited for a while, and finally realized, "Understood, you just don't want to take this order."
"You said that," Qu Jianlei snorted coldly, "How many people in Gunners Valley don't have temporary residence permits, don't you know?"
"But you must have done it on purpose!" The man's face darkened. With such a big list, you use the temporary residence permit as an excuse?
Such a master of Cao Dan, there is really no need to cooperate!
But then, a voice came from the earphone, "Promise him, hehe... don't want to take this muddy water? Let him!"
At the same time, Qu Jianlei was replying, "I never wanted to be a bodyguard, but you want to talk to me about this business."
"Since you hired a bodyguard, you must have a powerful opponent, right?"
"Is it worth it for me to make such a big enemy for such a small amount of money? Of course you have to help me apply for a temporary residence permit."
What he said was right, but the man spit out another mouthful of blood, "You call this a little money?"
"A lot?" Qu Jianlei asked suspiciously, "It's less than a million a day."
God is pitiful, he said it really restrainedly, he made more than ten million times a day, ten million times a day.
The man froze for a moment, and looked at him like a fool.
After a while, he nodded slowly, "Okay, I promise you, now come with me?"
Qu Jianlei nodded disapprovingly, "Okay, let's go."
Although the other party's communication headset is secret, can it be hidden from him?
He jumped out of the car and followed the other party, but the shop owner came out and stared blankly at his car for a full three minutes.
Then he dialed a watch number, "Third brother, come to my shop tomorrow, there is a good deal..."
"At that time, I will put a bottle of drink in the car... Don't worry, you are also a C-rank, and you can make a lot of money!"
When the man saw Qu Jianlei followed him into his car, he was also a little confused, "This...why don't you drive your car?"
"That's my rented car, twenty yuan for four hours," Qu Jianlei yawned lazily, "Are you disappointed?"
"You can break the contract, we haven't signed yet, I don't care."
However, no matter how stupid the man is, he can still sense the abnormality of the other party. The civilization of the empire has developed to this day, and popular novels are also very popular.
Just like on Blue Star, there is not only the Condor Yitian in China, but also the Count of Monte Cristo in the west. Who doesn't have a childlike heart?
He smiled disapprovingly, "Did you see the shopkeeper's coveted eyes for such a big order? Why are you so resistant?"
"Because to me, it's really a small amount of money," Qu Jianlei said lazily, "Besides, I hate people trying to test me."
The man was at a loss for words when he heard the words, and it took him a long time to ask, "Do you know that I sent the agency?"
He understood the other party's mood a little bit, no wonder he made such an offer.
To those who didn't know, it seemed that the agency couldn't help but try, but Qu Jianlei refused, and then the observers finally placed the order.
But in fact, the intermediary's temptation was ordered by this man!
If the test fails, it's no big deal, it's nothing more than a normal business cooperation, and it doesn't matter whether it succeeds or not.
In business, as long as the loss is controlled within a controllable range, that's fine.
If the temptation is successful, he will come out to invite.
This still doesn't arouse too much imagination - there are more than one family staring at Qu Jianlei, and it's normal for someone to throw an olive branch first.
However, it can be a little embarrassing for the person being tempted to come forward and say this.
But from another point of view, it also means that this person is really capable.
"I don't know anything," Qu Jianlei replied flatly, "I don't know if you have headphones in your ears."
As soon as these words came out, the man immediately shut up. As for his follower, a C-level water attribute didn't make a sound at all.
No sound came out of the earphones.
The car sent Qu Jianlei to a yard in the northern suburbs. The yard was not big, only more than 20,000 square meters.
There are three small buildings in the yard, one main and two auxiliary. The main building is nine stories high, but it occupies a small area, which is somewhat similar to a Gothic building.
There are eight ancient trees in the courtyard, at least four or five hundred years old. The old buildings with mottled bark give people a sense of history.
Qu Jianlei felt it before getting out of the car. There were at least two hundred people in the yard, and there was... an A-level?
He has killed a lot of A-levels, and he has seen more, but he has A-levels in his family, and he needs to hire C-levels with a high salary. He doesn't understand the logic of this.
But it doesn't matter if you don't understand, you haven't signed a contract yet, right?
After getting off the car, the middle-aged man led him into the main building and to a room on the first floor.
There are two people in the room, one is a B-level earth attribute, and the other is a female transformation warrior.
Seeing the middle-aged man enter the door, the B-rank soldier stood up and said with a smile, "Hello, Director Ford."
This person was originally leaning on the sofa, but he got up to greet a reformed soldier, which shows that the middle-aged man's position is not low.
The man nodded at him, "Hi Shi Zhu, are you on the night shift?"
Shi Zhu nodded, "By the way, come here to get the equipment. There are two less assault mechs, and five drones."
Director Ford nodded slightly, then looked at the female transformation fighter, "Linna, prepare an employment contract."
Lin Na glanced at Qu Jianlei, took out a watch, "Name?"
"Explosive Arrow," Qu Jianlei replied simply, it's metal, so it's normal to have such a nickname.
He originally wanted to call it "Steel Shield" or something, but when he thought it was mainly about protection, he gave up.
He didn't want to be a human shield in the front, emphasizing killing was the right thing to do.
Linna raised her head again and looked at him helplessly, "I want my real name."
"Real name..." Qu Jianlei spread his hands, "It depends on what is called on the temporary residence permit that you helped to apply for."
"Huh?" His answer not only made Lin Na and Shi Zhu look over, but even Ford looked at him in surprise.
