Chapter 849 Present

After bidding farewell to President Aoli, I strolled on the streets of Dashai City, listening to the laughter of clinking glasses and the wrestling competition on both sides, and I couldn't help but feel a sense of deja vu in my heart.

The last time we moved, if we hadn't moved away from Airey City, maybe we would have moved to this welcoming and generous town.

As I walked, I unconsciously found myself on the opposite side of the Heroic Guild.

A street away, staring at the door number of the Brave Guild, I always feel a little lonely.

In the past, there would always be two people standing guard at the door of the Valiant Guild. They would be lazy and peek at the beautiful girls passing by. When an adventurer wanted to enter the door, they would be like a chicken. , stared, bared his teeth, grinned, put on a fierce expression, and asked the adventurer about the purpose of his trip. After understanding the purpose, he would go to the stage of asking for passing money. If he gave less money, it would definitely be wrong. They did it, and they would not let the adventurer go until they had collected almost the same amount of money.

The adventurers who guard the gate are very average in strength, and can even be expressed as slightly inferior. Moreover, their styles and behaviors are also obscene and despicable, but it has to be said that it is precisely because of these people that they can embody The reputation of the Brave Guild is huge.

Nowadays, apart from a large signboard, it no longer has the bustling feeling it once had.

It was afternoon time now, not yet dusk. Through the window, I saw some unfamiliar faces of men and women walking around. They might be newcomers selected from the Adventurer Academy.

I wonder what the Brave Guild will look like after Jin Siqi takes over.

Thinking of this, I felt a little sleepy and tired. When I got home, I fell asleep.

When I opened my eyes, it was already the next morning.

After washing up, I took out my pocket watch. It was almost half past seven.

It was still early, so I walked leisurely to the reserved store, asked the boss for a private room, ordered a barbecue, and ordered a drink. I sizzled the meat while waiting for Jin Siqi's arrival.

The agreed time is eight o'clock, but I don't know what time she will come.

Around 7:50, Jin Siqi came with two new adventurers, and my barbecue breakfast had just started.

I raised my chin, motioned for her to sit down, and asked, "Have you had breakfast?"

"Have eaten." Jin Siqi's tone was very calm. The two adventurers behind her swallowed their saliva when they saw the barbecue. It seemed that they had not had time to eat breakfast.

I put a piece of freshly roasted meat into my mouth and chewed it slowly: "Well, it's so delicious. Would you like to eat some too?"

"No," Jin Siqi said lightly, "Thank you for your kindness."

I smiled nonchalantly and said, "Did you bring the contract?"

Jin Siqi glanced at him, and a little attendant next to him took out a stack of paper from his bag.

I took this stack of paper and read the words on it bit by bit. The content of the contract was very detailed and clear, and the scope of the summary was very broad. It would not be an exaggeration to say that it was exhaustive. I suddenly felt that Jin Siqi was not suitable. To be a president, it is more suitable to be a secretary to help write tedious documents and contracts.

When I read the requirements, I couldn't help but frown: Two hundred thousand gold coins per month? Was she a little too much for the amount of money I needed to provide?

I sneered and continued reading. The subsequent demands were quite reasonable. Most of them asked me not to make unethical demands on her, or to insult the body and spirit. I quite agree with these and can accept them. After all, I Where she is needed is only her ability, not her body.

I closed the document and put it aside. I said to Jin Siqi: "I have read your conditions and requirements, and they can basically be met except for one."

"Which one?" Jin Siqi asked.

"The one that provides you with two hundred thousand gold coins every month."

"Two hundred thousand gold coins per month is considered according to the specifications of a large guild," Jin Siqi explained: "Without the support of these gold coins, the Heroic Guild would not have become a famous large guild in a short period of time!"

"You said you want the Valiant Guild to become a large guild?" I smiled: "Are you sure that a guild that has just barely reached a medium-sized guild can become a small and famous large guild with money?"

"Why not?" Jin Siqi said: "The equipment is the strongest, the weapons are the sharpest, and the salary is the highest. Once these conditions are met, no matter whether they are newcomers or old people in the guild, their combat power will be of high quality. Leap, not only that, their fighting enthusiasm will also increase. If this continues, it won't be long before there will be many powerful adventurers who come to join us. With the joining of these people, the strength of the Heroic Guild will be even greater. As long as it continues to improve further, it will soon become famous in Zefeng Continent!"

"Then what?" I asked.

"Then?" Jin Siqi was stunned for a moment and said, "As the actual leader of the Brave Guild, aren't you proud of this?"

"Proud?" I shook my head: "No, not at all."

"Don't you have even the slightest sense of honor?" Jin Siqi asked in surprise.

"I do have a sense of honor, but it's not what you're talking about." After eating a piece of freshly roasted meat, I said calmly: "What I want is not made up of a group of wallflowers who come when they are given money and leave when they have no money." It’s an empty shell guild, but a co-prosperity composed of a group of loyal, friendly, mutually protective, and mutually progressive guys. With all due respect, I really don’t like those adventurers who come here smelling of money. .”

"Without money, there is nothing!" Jin Siqi said: "Do you understand this truth? Look at the current guilds, especially those large guilds, which one does not have huge funds to support them?"

"You are right. Those large guilds do have huge funds to support their operations. However, the reason why they can receive huge financial support is because they have enough strength to protect those who provide them with financial support. A group, at this point, can the Heroic Guild do it?"

"You are strong and don't need protection." Jin Siqi argued.

"Since you have said that I am strong and do not need protection, then why should I provide so much funds to the Brave Guild?"

"Because you need it," Jin Siqi said, "you hope it can provide you with its power one day!"

"Maybe" I sighed: "Maybe in the future, as you said, it can provide me with the power I need, but not now, nor in the near future, so let me once again refuse the offer of 200,000 gold coins a month. Please, I don’t want to invest money in those illusory futures. What I want to see is only now, you understand? Now!”
