Chapter 912: The Present

After saying goodbye to President Olli, he strolled through the streets of Dasai City, listening to the clinking glasses on both sides and laughing and wrestling, and his heart couldn't help but feel a touch of familiarity.

The last time we moved, if it wasn't for the fact that we were away from Ari City, maybe we would have moved to this welcoming and bold town.

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

Across the street, gazing at the door number of the Heroic Guild, I always feel a little lonely.

In the past, there will always be two guards at the door, while stealing lazy, while peeking at the beautiful girls in the past, when there are adventurers who want to enter the gate, they will be like beating chicken blood, staring, baring their teeth, grinning, putting on a fierce expression, questioning the adventurer's intention for this trip, after listening to the meaning, it will be to ask for money to pass through the door, the money is less must not be done, and after receiving almost the same amount of money, they are willing to let the adventurer go.

The adventurers guarding the gate are very average, and they can even be expressed as slightly worse, and their style and behavior are also obscene and despicable, but I have to say that it is precisely because of these people that the fame of the Heroic Guild is reflected.

Now, except for a very large signboard, it can no longer find the feeling of being in the market back then.

It was afternoon, and it wasn't yet dusk, and through the window, I saw some strange faces of men and women walking around, probably newcomers from the Adventurer's Academy.

I don't know what Jin Siqi's takeover will become.

Thinking of this, I was faintly sleepy, and when I got home, I fell asleep.

When I woke up, it was already the next morning.

After washing, I took out my pocket watch, and it was close to half past seven.

It was still early, so I slipped to the designated store unhurriedly, asked the boss for a private room, ordered a barbecue, asked for a drink, and waited for Jin Siqi's arrival while simmering the barbecue.

The agreed time was eight o'clock, but I didn't know what time she would come.

At about 7:50, Jin Siqi came with two rookie adventurers, and my barbecue breakfast had just begun.

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

"I've eaten" Jin Siqi's tone was very light, and the two adventurers behind her swallowed in unison when they saw the barbecue, and it seemed that they didn't have time to eat breakfast.

I put a piece of freshly roasted meat in my mouth and chewed it slowly, "Well, it's delicious, why don't you eat some of it too?" ”

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

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

Jin Siqi gave a look, and a small attendant next to him took out a stack of paper from his bag.

Taking this pile of paper, I read the words on it little by little, the content of the contract is marked in detail, very clearly, and the scope of the summary is also very wide, and even the use of all aspects is not too much, I suddenly feel that Jin Siqi is not suitable to be a president, but more suitable to be a secretary, to help write cumbersome documents and contracts.

When I read the requirements, I couldn't help but frown: 200,000 gold coins per month? Was she a little too much about the amount of money I needed to provide?

I scoffed and continued to read, and the subsequent requests were quite reasonable, mostly that I should not make unethical demands on her, and that there were demands that insulted the body and spirit, which I agreed with and could accept, after all, I only needed her ability, not her body.

Closing the document and putting it aside, I said to Jin Siqi: "I have read these conditions and requirements of yours, and except for one, they can basically be met." ”

"Which one?" Jin Siqi asked.

"It's the one that gives you 200,000 gold coins every month."

"200,000 gold coins per month, which 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 large guild with a small reputation in a short period of time!" ”

"You said you want the Heroic Guild to become a large guild?" I smiled, "Are you sure that a guild that has just barely reached a medium-sized size can become a large guild with a small reputation by relying on money?" ”

"Why not?" Jin Siqi said: "The equipment is the strongest, the weapon is the sharpest, the salary is the highest, after these conditions are met, in the guild, whether it is a newcomer or an old man, the combat power will have a qualitative leap, not only that, but their combat enthusiasm will also increase, like this, it will not 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 further improved, as long as it continues, it won't be long, It will make a name for itself in the Zephyr Continent! ”

"And then?" I asked.

"And then?" Jin Siqi was stunned for a moment and said, "As the actual ruler of the Heroic Guild, aren't you proud of it?" ”

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

"Don't you have even the slightest sense of honor?" Jin Siqi was surprised.

"I have a sense of honor, but it's not what you said" After eating a piece of freshly roasted meat, I said lightly: "What I want is not an empty shell guild composed of a group of wall grass that comes when you give money and leaves if you don't have money, but a group of people who are loyal, friendly to each other, protect each other, and make progress with each other. ”

"There is nothing without money!" Jin Siqi said: "Do you understand this truth? If you look at the current guilds, especially those large guilds, which ones don't have huge funds to support them? ”

"You're right, it's true that the big guilds have a lot of money to support their operations, but the reason they can receive a lot of money is because they have enough strength to protect the groups that provide them with financial support, and at this point, can the Valiant Guild do that?"

"You're strong, you don't need to protect ......," Jin Siqi quibbled.

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

"Because you need it," Jin Siqi said, "you hope that it will one day be able to give you its power!" ”

"Maybe," I sighed, "Maybe in the future, as you said, it will give me the strength I need, but not now, not in the near future, so, let me once again refuse the request of 200,000 gold coins a month, I don't want to invest money in those illusory futures, I want to see only now, you know?" Present! ”
