Chapter 123 Drone (Third update)
"It's me," Bentley replied in a sullen voice, "a man of heaven, right?"
"If you don't bring an industrial robot, don't come any closer, otherwise don't blame me for being rude."
It was clear that the situation was tense, but both sides remained calm.
One of the four people whispered, "Just rush in. It's just two reformed warriors."
No one paid attention to him - it was not yet confirmed whether the simple fortress was in the small courtyard, so directly attacking... was there something wrong?
But the man with the loudspeaker spoke up again, "We still have some details we want to finalize regarding maintenance and testing."
If nothing else, they at least surrounded this guy named Terry, and further testing was inevitable.
"We have already agreed that we will not accept any changes," Bentley's voice came, "If you can't afford it, get out!"
"Mr. Terry, we are very sincere," the man took a step forward intentionally or unintentionally, "The main thing is..."
There was a gunshot, and a bullet hit seven or eight meters in front of him, causing mud to fly everywhere.
"Last warning, if you take one step forward...kill without mercy!"
The four of them exchanged glances and finally turned around and left—forcibly breaking into a private place and being killed without any room to complain.
Qu Jianlei was paying attention the whole time, and when he saw this, he snorted softly, "There are advances and retreats. It seems that the opponent is holding back his energy and wants to fight."
"Punch away with one punch to avoid hundreds of punches," Bentley learned and practiced. "They will have other methods."
What he said was absolutely correct. In the afternoon, Tiangong actually found the landlord who rented out the yard.
Then I don’t know what means they used. The landlord wanted to take people into the courtyard.
Bentley flatly refused, "You have already collected the rent, and the right to use it now belongs to me, so don't look for trouble!"
The wasteland has clear regulations on the ownership of houses, but the right to use them is very limited.
This is not a place with a perfect legal system, and most of the time what people talk about is not the law.
The landlord was furious when he heard this, "This is my house, so can I stop renting it now?"
"Can you help me?" Bentley sneered.
He didn't tell the other party about breach of contract - this wouldn't work in the wasteland. "Use your stupid brain to think about it..."
"Can't you see how many people are on the other side? They don't dare to force their way in. Who gives you the courage to break the contract with me?"
The landlord's face turned pale when he heard this. Since neither party is easy to mess with, why should he let himself get stuck in it?
Thinking of the instruction he had just received, he coughed lightly and said, "My lord, I have no intention of becoming your enemy."
"But since you admit that the house is mine, it's always okay for me to take a look at what changes have occurred in the house, right?"
Bentley pondered for a moment and asked, "Are you coming to see it alone?"
The landlord was shocked when he heard this and nodded simply, "Yes, I'm the only one."
As long as you go in, observe carefully, and describe the whole process when you come out, you can get a lot of money.
Who is Bentley? His eyes are not as vicious as usual, "Our agreement does not include a check-up halfway through."
"But it's not impossible to check and say it's not right?" the landlord asked bravely, "I promise to just take a look..."
"Sure," Bentley replied lazily, then chuckled again.
"But I have no obligation to guarantee your safety. You can come in... Whether you can go out depends on your luck."
After finishing speaking, he turned off the tweeter and spread his hands towards Qu Jianlei next to him.
"To be honest, I'm really not used to talking so much... How about taking action directly?"
Qu Jianlei laughed, "Isn't it good to accumulate anger to hold back your ultimate move... Give them the illusion of being 'reasonable'?"
Bentley shook his head disapprovingly, and then suddenly smiled, "You guys are really bad at it."
Qu Jianlei curled his lips silently...Actually, I just wanted to occupy the moral high ground.
In the wasteland, morality is basically useless, but he doesn't want to give up his life in the capital for the time being.
So it's never a bad thing to be more particular about things.
The landlord was frightened again. After thinking about it, he finally decided not to make this money.
The Tiangong people wanted to force him to come, but the landlord was very determined.
"The house has been rented out. I don't want to get involved in anything anymore. You have no right to order me."
The Tiangong people are a little disappointed, but they are businessmen after all, not thieves who kill without blinking an eye.
"In this case, can you sell your house to us?"
"Sell it together with the land," the landlord did not refuse.
On the contrary, he thought this was a good opportunity, "The price is five thousand silver dollars."
"You might as well go grab it," the person in charge of communication said angrily. "This small courtyard, even with this land, can't reach two thousand."
The landlord said without hesitation, "But now you need it, so it is valuable."
The communicator wanted to slap him in the face, but finally gritted his teeth and said, "I can only give you three thousand."
"Dreaming!" The landlord shook his head and replied simply, "How about you kill me?"
How long has it been since he encountered such a good thing? How could he miss it?
The man from Tiangong thought about it and reminded him with a dark face, "Think clearly... your small courtyard may be destroyed in the battle."
This landlord is really weird, "Then I'll just contact you when the time comes... It's impossible for my tenants to do this."
But there is really no problem with the logic of this statement - if someone wants to destroy my yard, why not rent it?
The key is that the landlord already knows the identities of these people...at least they are members of a certain team.
The Tiangong people are completely at their wits end. There is really no good way to deal with such a shameless little person.
In the business world, they don't mind physically destroying their competitors, but now... it's really not worthwhile.
In the end, they had no choice but to ignore this guy.
The landlord didn't ask to sell to the other party. When he thought about it, the tenant had rented it for half a month, and it had only been six days.
He has a lot of time to wait for the other party to buy the house. At worst, he will consider lowering the price in the last few days.
Interestingly, the Tiangong people did not tell him that they only had three days to respond.
Watching the landlord leave proudly, a group of people looked at me and I looked at you.
At the end, a middle-level manager from Tiangong sighed, "It seems...that's the only way it can be."
When it was getting dark, a buzzing sound came from far away.
"Haha," Bentley couldn't help but laugh, "It's been so many years, and it's still the same method. It's not unusual at all."
Qu Jianlei thought for a moment, and then asked, "Is this... a drone?"
"Yes," Bentley nodded with a strange expression, "Do you think they have water in their brains?"
Qu Jianlei also had a weird look on his face, "How much do you look down on me as a maintenance engineer?"
"Okay, I guess we need to scout the number of people," Bentley smiled and shook his head, "I'll hide it first."
Thermal imaging cameras are indeed more effective at night, but only if...the other party is not fully prepared.
Bentley walked into an upright box, holding the door shut with his backhand, and observed the situation through a hole as big as a bowl.
The holes are covered with double-glazed glass, so you don't need to worry about how much heat will escape.
Qu Jianlei was not in a hurry and turned on the searchlight to scan left and right.
"Searchlight..." Among the people ambushing outside, some were a little ready to make a move, "Do you want to destroy it?"
"No," a voice objected firmly, "Once we take the initiative, the other party can take the opportunity to terminate the agreement."
It's not because they have high moral standards when they co-author, it's just because they don't want to teach others.
Another voice said, "Anyway, from what happened during the day, it can be seen that the opponent's shooting skills...are just that."
In Tianzi District, drones are very expensive, and the drones they use are not big—only about the size of a human head.
To be continued...
