Quadruple split

Chapter 968 Good impression and hush money

Two thousand per person, a total of 14,000 mission rewards!

Auction bonus amounting to around 30,000 yuan!

I bet you all earned nearly 50,000 gold coins after working hard for a few days?

Not to mention the other three who were completely stunned, Mo Tan, who had seen many big scenes and had hundreds of thousands of gold coins on his body at most, was immediately stunned.

Is it so easy to make money these days?

If calculated according to the ratio given by many popular platforms, the average income per person is more than 6,000 gold coins, which is already catching up with the monthly salary of many white-collar workers outside the game. Although there are no benefits, five insurances and one housing fund, Mo Tan, Ji Xiaoge and Dabus just played games during bedtime, and they didn't work for long together.

If this continues, the market outside the game will also be affected...

Thinking that Dabbs' school had started to use the Innocence Boundary to provide supplementary classes for children, Mo Tan unexpectedly started to consider financial issues.

"cough."

However, Zordon Nightcrawler did not let the four people, whose thoughts were gradually becoming confused, be distracted for too long. He coughed slightly, took a sip of the expensive tea in front of him that was said to be reimbursed, and asked with a smile: "Looking at the reactions of some of you... do you feel you are quite satisfied?"

Yaya trembled, and the tail hanging behind him began to swing crazily like a propeller. He muttered with starry eyes: "You have so much money... you can buy so many big bones to eat... throw one away..." Root...suck...hey hey hey...suck..."

Obviously, after briefly calculating the reward she could get, this girl was completely immersed in the fantasy of eating big bones and was unable to extricate herself.

I have said it many times before, Yaya is just a little cute in normal state, but she is not stupid at all. She knows very well what such a large amount of money means, although the way she imagined spending it is a little bit different. It’s just worthless.

As for the other three, they are not as naive as this bitch girl.

"This... is really a bit too much."

Ji Xiaoge twirled his fingers uneasily and frowned: "The contribution we made is definitely not worth so much reward. Even if we got the key first, the one we used in the end would be the one that the Viridian Brigade and the others got from the cavemen. , from now on we will simply follow the large army."

Only idiots will believe that there is a free lunch in the world, and truly smart people will choose to take advantage of it.

For some reason, the words that her father once said to her suddenly flashed through the girl's mind.

Although it is not considered appropriate, but based on the substantial contribution made by the Wangwang team in the previous mission, and comparing it with the huge reward Zordon just proposed, the money is actually no different from free money.

Acquaintances are there to cheat, but never try to take advantage from strangers.

Then Ji Xiaoge remembered the second family motto that also came from his father, and his delicate and pretty face suddenly became wary.

"We and the Beautiful Girls Mercenary Group are just partners we met during missions. Although we get along well, we are not very familiar with each other."

Jadeka said something that seemed to have nothing to do with the current topic, then slowly sipped the tea in front of him, and said lightly: "I didn't even know that Miss Corliss could turn into a dragon earlier. , so please think twice, Mr. Zordon, as long as you give the money, we will not refund it."

As the oldest member of the team, although the old mage is not a human being, he is still very reliable at important times, so he has ruled out most nonsensical possibilities... such as 'Mo is Zordon's illegitimate son', 'Zordon' After hearing the words "I fell in love with Ji Xiaoge at first sight", "Zordon Branch President who is good at teasing", "In short he is very rich", etc., Jadeka felt that the reason why the Archaeologists Association gave such outrageous remuneration was probably a mistake. They thought they were familiar with Christina, whose pseudonym was Corliss.

"No reward for no merit."

As the captain, Mo Tan finally concluded, shaking his head and saying: "Since we have not created equal value, we should not accept the huge reward you offered."

Yaya flattened her mouth unhappily, but didn't say much. She was still very obedient in this relatively formal occasion.

As a result, Zordon smiled slightly and said slowly: "You guys are worrying too much. The remuneration set was carefully discussed by the association's senior management. It has no direct relationship with the dragon lady of the Beautiful Girls Mercenary Group. If I do this Will you believe what I say?"

Mo Tan, Ji Xiaoge, and Jadeka exchanged looks and shook their heads at the same time.

Obviously, based on the analysis of the Jotun branch president's last sentence, he probably didn't even believe this statement.

"Well, since you don't want to believe the explanation that I was told to convey from the headquarters, let's talk openly."

Jordan smiled and shrugged: "First of all, after the association's investigation, although we believe that you did not know the true identity of Miss Corliss before, the relationship between you is definitely not what Mr. Jadekar said before. Simple, if I remember correctly, after the commotion that day ended, the Wangwang team that left the scene as soon as possible did not return directly to the kobold settlement, but went to another place first... a place where there are probably two A place for a giant dragon."

Mo Tan and others were immediately at a loss for words. They really didn't expect that the Archaeologists Association could be distracted from investigating the whereabouts of their group under the circumstances.

"Wang... Wang didn't notice anyone following Wang..."

Ya Ya muttered in a low voice, feeling that he was a bit unqualified as a scout.

Zordon stared at Mo Tan with burning eyes: "So, am I right? Captain Mo."

What can Mo Tan do? Not to mention that Yaya's words just now had almost confirmed Zordon's guess. Even if she hadn't, her passive skill called [Chivalry - Honesty] would not allow him to lie blatantly in this situation.

"Okay, you're right."

So he could only nod and admit with a wry smile: "We did take a detour to say goodbye to a few friends before going back."

"Say goodbye to your 'friends'~"

Zordon didn't look surprised, he just nodded slightly with an expected expression and showed a very friendly smile: "I think so, after all, there is a real reason for you to take a detour in that situation. Not much. After mastering some basic information, it’s easy to draw conclusions.”

Mo Tan did not continue speaking, but nodded to the branch president in front of him to continue.

"Secondly, I had a little chat with Ms. Lorelai from the Joban Brigade before... It can also be said that it was a little test. As a result, she who is interested in making friends with our Archaeologists Association readily confirmed another suspicion of mine."

Zordon took another sip of tea, then breathed a sigh of relief, and his eyes darkened slightly: "There are conjectures about 'outsiders'."

"Eh!"

Ji Xiaoge was startled and subconsciously let out a soft cry.

Jadeka and Yaya also exchanged surprised looks.

Mo Tan, who had known that the concept of 'otherworldly' would no longer be a secret in the eyes of many NPCs half a year after the server was launched, was quite calm and just asked lightly: "So?"

"So combined with the information provided by the Joban Brigade and our simple investigation of the beautiful girl mercenary group, the association can basically confirm the identity of Ms. Corliss as an alien. In my opinion, there are also aliens. The relationship between the Wangwang team, that is, all of you, and Miss Corliss should be more than just casual acquaintances."

Zordon shrugged and said calmly: "In other words, even if you were just casual acquaintances before, you are not anymore. After all, Miss Corliss and the others are willing to say goodbye to you before leaving. In terms of status, In case of exposure.”

"All right."

Mo Tan sighed and said helplessly: "I admit that we are already fairly close friends, but..."

"That's enough."

Zordon interrupted Mo Tan's last words and said with a smile: "Whether it's me personally or other high-level officials of the association, I feel that it's definitely not a loss to give some 'good impression' to the friend with whom Ms. Dragon is still close." .”

Ji Xiaoge frowned: "Are you trying to bribe us?"

"No, no, no, to say 'bribe' is too serious. As I said just now, the association just wants to leave a 'good impression' on you."

Zordon immediately shook his head, waved his hand and said, "You are friends of a dragon lady. If you really want to bribe you, two thousand gold coins per person is just a joke. A hundred times more will be enough."

Yaya's eyes lit up: "Each person barks 100,000 yuan!?"

"Yeah, at least it needs to be this kind of number."

Zordon made an exaggerated expression, shook his head and said: "But now I just want to make friends with you, and to be honest, if Ms. Coris hadn't turned the tide at that time, the association's losses would definitely exceed millions of gold coins. Take advantage of me, the branch president of the City of Gold.”

[No, if it weren’t for Christina, this thing wouldn’t have happened at all...]

The four members of the Wangwang team thought at the same time, with bright expressions.

"Um?"

Zordon looked at Mo Tan and others who suddenly looked strange with some confusion, and asked curiously: "Did I say something wrong?"

Mo Tan spread his hands: "We are not the ones who can turn the tide."

"So, will Ms. Corliss and the others come back?"

Zordon smiled and asked calmly: "Come back and receive their share of the reward."

"Probably...no."

Mo Tan, who had known that the four beautiful girls mercenary group had already run away overnight, sighed.

"In that case, please don't refuse."

Zordon took out a stack of seven gold-coin Chamber of Commerce certificates from his sleeves and gently pushed them in front of Mo Tan: "After all, this is a task sent by the headquarters, so please do me a favor and accept it."

"but……"

Mo Tan was still a little hesitant.

"This is not a favor."

Zordon interrupted him with a smile, leaned back in his chair and said, "And it's not much, just think of it as a small gesture from the Archaeologists Association...or a small thank you."

Mo Tan smiled helplessly, and finally put away the stack of vouchers that Zordon pushed over: "Okay, thank you very much, but forget about the dividends you just mentioned."

"That's not special treatment."

Zordon shook his finger, and the smile on his face gradually faded: "Jiban Brigade and Fluorite also have one, and they will also leave a share for the Beautiful Girls Mercenary Group, but if they make up their mind to stay out of it... Even if I give you some extra compensation, our Archaeologists Association will still make a profit."

Although it was just a casual remark to relieve everyone's psychological burden, it must be said that this remark was still very stress-relieving. At that time, Mo Tan felt that the stack of 'checks' in his hand was no longer so hot.

"Are the auction dividends that high?"

Jadeka stared at Zordon in shock, looking frightened.

"Theoretically, it's definitely not that high. If nothing else, it's only about two thousand gold coins at best."

Zordon shook his head slightly and explained solemnly: "The reason why the bonus was raised to 30,000 gold coins this time is because among the things brought out from the Sun Dynasty No. 7 Archives... there is something that our Archaeologists Association attaches great importance to. thing."

"An item of great importance?"

Ji Xiaoge shook his wings, tilted his head and repeated.

"You may not know that the founder of our Archaeologists Association, the first president, left clear instructions, that is, in addition to those antiquities and cultural relics within the normal business scope, we must seal up or destroy as many artifacts as possible. 'Dangerous goods' buried in history."

Zordon narrowed his eyes slightly and said in a deep voice: "Especially those dangerous items that can cause unrest. After those items are unearthed, they will not be made public. Instead, they will be concentrated in a certain place for evaluation, and then sealed or destroyed depending on the situation. , and it’s no secret that whenever something like this is discovered, we usually pay the participants a large sum of money to keep it quiet.”

Ji Xiaoge immediately opened his eyes, covered his mouth and whispered: "What do you mean..."

"Yes, the [Falling Star Cannon Engineering Drawings] secretly developed during the heyday of the Sun Dynasty and more than 80% of its parts are in the warehouse of the No. 7 Archives."

Zordon rubbed his forehead and said a little tiredly: "The craftsmen at the headquarters have analyzed the drawing and have assessed it as an extremely dangerous item, so these 30,000 gold coins are your hush money."

"Eh? But we didn't know about this kind of thing before. If you don't say anything, don't you need to pay hush money?"

Ji Xiaoge asked confusedly.

"Be careful with the thousand-year-old ship. After all, you are all involved in the transportation of those things."

Zordon smiled, waved his hand and said: "Besides, the association has special funds, so it is not necessary to take risks just to save this little money. What's more, as long as this kind of thing is discovered once, it will be difficult to get others to trust it in the future. Thirty thousand Gold coins can’t buy the reputation our association has now.”

Mo Tan and others nodded slightly, feeling that what Zordon said did make sense.

"Then, let's stop here."

Zordon stood up, stretched out his right hand to Mo Tan, and showed a sincere smile——

"Then, I hope there will be another opportunity to cooperate with you in the future."
