When Chen Yi came out of prison, he saw Atkins was already waiting for him.
"It looks pretty good." Atkins asked, "Are you happy enough?"
"To be honest, it's average." Chen Yi spread his hands with regretful tone: "The time is too short, and she's too dry."
Atkins was stunned, and he turned toward the door: "You are a bit disgusting to me. Man, I never thought you were a bastard with such a bad hobby."
Chen Yi looked down at the heraldry.
Damn, just one sentence reduces your favorability by ten points.
There is not much left, okay?
He walked up quickly and walked side by side with Atkins: "I don't have this hobby, general, but there are always some women worthy of exception... If it weren't for her princess and the identity of the Shadow Assassin, I I would rather find any one on the street. And the reason I chose her is because I think that will make you happy."
Atkins stopped and looked at Chen Yi: "Do you think I'd like you to do that?"
"After all, she assassinated you twice, didn't she? This woman deserves lessons, but some things are noble if you are not suitable for doing them, and someone needs to deal with them for you."
Atkins heard something in Chen Yi's words.
He replied cautiously: "I have enough subordinates to solve my problems with friends."
"But not all problems and troubles. The most important thing is that you also need to pay, but I am different..." Chen Yi faced Atkins and answered.
Atkins' eyes narrowed.
As a general, he has experienced countless storms and tests, of course he understands the meaning of Chen Yi's words.
In fact, I don’t know how many people have made similar proposals like Chen Yi, but most of them were rejected by Atkins.
It’s not because Atkins is honest—the morality of integrity is noble because it is rare.
But because he is cautious - only safe and undiscovered bribes have value for acceptance.
To be safe, at least two conditions are required.
1: From a trustworthy person. 2: The "service" purchased by the other party should be as much as possible within his authority and will not cause any trouble.
For this reason, Atkins has always been very cautious in money, which has also made him famous and not widely available.
From a practical point of view, a general with the principle of collecting money is a good general.
Chen Yi has already qualified for the former. No matter what, he is the one who saved his life twice and can be trusted.
The question is what he wants? What can he give?
After thinking about it, Atkins said: "It seems that you are very ambitious. I can understand your mood... You have got a chance, and you don't want to miss this opportunity."
"Yes, General."
"So how do you plan to make good use of this opportunity?"
"It's such a general. You know a few days ago I just rented a factory and was producing some standard equipment. I was originally planning to sell it to those mercenaries. But you also know that the business is not easy to do."
"It's really hard to do." Atkins nodded. He knew that Chen Yi had rented a factory. The rent for the Empire Factory was too expensive. In fact, this thing was just used to cheat himself. People who make money in business. If the weapons produced by factories cannot be sold at a good price, the people who rent the factory will lose money so much that they don’t even recognize them.
"But I still rented it, not only that, I also plan to expand the scale of my business."
"What?" Atkins was stunned and thought for a while and said, "If you need me to help you reduce the rent..."
"No, no! General Atkins, I don't mean that." Chen Yi said quickly.
What a joke, even if Atkins comes forward, how much rent can he reduce? This is not what he wants.
Chen Yi said quickly: "In fact, I hope you can invest. I plan to set up two companies, a equipment production company and a security company as quickly as possible. I am willing to leave 20% of the shares for you, of course... The price will be very cheap.”
"I'm not interested." Atkins turned and left: "I don't think your company has any future."
It would be nice if the factory rented at a high price would not lose money.
Chen Yi quickly followed: "It's true under normal circumstances, but what if the war happened?"
"What did you say?" Atkins stopped again and looked at Chen Yi in shock.
Chen Yi leaned into Atkins's ear and whispered a few words.
The next moment, Atkins's face changed drastically, and he took a few steps back: "This is impossible!"
"In fact, it is happening, General." Chen Yi pressed step by step: "Taiyi Zhenren is about to enter the city."
"He can't..."
"He can do it, General, this is the empire, as long as the emperor nods!" Chen Yi refused to let him go, he was like a reborn person, and no one understood the rhythm of history's development better than him. Not only that, he even directly Deciding History: "The war mobilization order will be issued at a speed that you imagined and will launch an attack within three days."
"Without more than three months of preparation, the country cannot..."
"The Empire has always been preparing for war and can be put into war at any time. General, you should know this better than me!"
Atkins took a long breath.
He stared at Chen Yi: "Are you sure what you said is the truth?"
Chen Yi laughed and walked a few steps forward.
This time Atkins followed.
Chen Yiyouran said: "General, the shares are there, it doesn't matter if you want them or not, but I suggest you prepare early now. Your Majesty's war mobilization order will be issued soon, if you can do it before that Respond in advance…you know how good that will do you, right?”
Atkins' eyes flashed.
He knew so much about what this meant.
"But if you're wrong..."
"Then you won't lose anything, right?" Chen Yi said with a smile.
Atkins was originally a hawk in the army, and it was normal for him to make war remarks.
But this time, the effect of this statement will be different from the past.
Thinking of this, Atkins nodded: "I'm going to prepare for a press conference now. If you are right... Chen Yi, I don't need your shares, but I need some help from you in other aspects. .”
"If it's the security company, there's no problem!" Chen Yi put his right hand on his chest and bowed to Atkins.
It turned out to be a smart young man, Atkins thought.
Although he had only been in contact for a few days, Atkins had really felt that Chen Yijue was very human.
This feeling is not something that Chen Yi's turtle is scattered, but something I feel from the contact after a few days.
A young man who had nothing before entering the city had become an arms dealer in just a few days.
What else is more telling than this?
This has made Atkins also interested and confident in Chen Yi's upcoming security company.
A bribe that is better than money is military merit!
"I need to see their combat effectiveness," Atkins said.
"Then you need to arrange some advanced tasks for me that my current reputation cannot undertake, such as S-level ones, how about it?" Chen Yi replied.
"S-class?" Atkins looked at Chen Yi in shock: "It seems that you are very confident in the troops you are about to form."
“More than you imagined.”
"Then...I agree."
In this way, without paying any price, Chen Yi gained the right to freely select any advanced task.
It is worth noting that when Atkins left, Chen Yi saw that his favorability with Atkins rose again.
"It's true that he's a real guy... But I just like to deal with real people." Chen Yi said to himself.
He stopped a car casually and Shen Yi sat inside.
"City Hall," he said.
Before the mobilization order is issued, we must rent all the factories that can be rented, buy all the stocks that can be bought, and take on all the tasks that can be taken - no residue left.
——————————————
"What did you say?" The receptionist looked at Wen Rou in shock.
Gentle soft, who was sitting opposite the receptionist, leaned his body forward, and this action made the receptionist instinctively retreat.
Wenrou could only hook her finger impatiently and let her approach herself: "I need you to tell your president, Lord Maxis, two things. One: Princess Carmela was arrested after failed assassination. Two: Tianlu Dynasty and The Aaronte Empire is about to join forces to attack the Kingdom. Do you understand?"
She was not worried that someone would steal her intelligence to take credit.
For major events like this, you must confirm the source of the information and ask about the incident to judge its reliability.
The receptionist looked at Wenrou blankly: "This is impossible... the true god is above, this is absolutely impossible!"
Her performance made Wenrou very dissatisfied.
"You are not qualified to make a judgment. Miss Ava, please inform the president immediately. I'll wait for him here!"
"Ah... OK, OK!" The receptionist hurriedly ran away and entered a secluded yard from the rear passage.
Gentle and laid back, surrounded by a group of mercenaries who were also stunned when they heard the news.
Not long after, an old man with gray hair but energetic appeared at the entrance of the passage, and four people were closely following him.
A naked/naked anti-axe man, a handsome blonde man in full armor and a red cloak, with a sphinx winged emblem engraved on his armor.
An old man with a high hat and a white robe on his head and a man with a full body covered in shadows and a black cloth covering his face is invisible.
There was a sigh of relief around.
"It's President Maxis, he's really here."
"The one next to it should be the beast Zhakubi."
If it is not surprising that President Maxis and Zakubi, the beast known as the king of mercenaries, appeared here, the other three people could not be surprised.
"Oh my goodness, that's... that's Prince Apollo, the leader of the Royal Guards, and they will appear here too?"
"There is also the Great Pastor Crompton, the True God is above, why does even the Great Pastor Red Robe come?"
"Who is the person who can't see the face?"
"Shut up, you idiot, you can tell at a glance that you are a senior figure in the Dark Palace. Don't ask who they are. Only dead people will know their identities!"
Even the fool realized at this time that gentle news was probably not groundless.
The white-haired old man had already come to Wenrou. He looked at Wenrou and waved his hand: "The others left here, and everything they heard just now is not allowed to be spread, otherwise they will all understand if they are executed?"
In terms of power, Maxis did not have the right to execute anyone, but a group of mercenaries were still so scared that they nodded quickly and ran out of the guild hall, with only a few people left at the scene.
Scare away a group of tragic people and waited. The President Maxis was about to speak, and the blonde Prince Apollo had already taken the lead and asked Wen Rou: "Is it you who gave the news of Carmela's arrest?"
"It's me, the respected prince." Gentle answered without being humble or arrogant when he stood up.
"Source of the news?" The prince said concisely.
“I have someone in the center city.”
"Where is the evidence?"
"Your arrival is evidence... How long has it been since the Dark Palace contacted His Royal Highness the Princess? Or have you received more accurate news?"
Prince Apollo's face changed immediately. He looked at the man in black robe beside him, who just lowered his head and kept silent.
That's right, if they hadn't been lost with Carmela for a while, how could they be alarmed by such a rumor?
It is precisely because we know that the news is not groundless that Apollo appears here.
At this time, the Grand Pastor Crompton, who was wearing a high hat and holding a sacred book, suddenly said: "So what's the news about the Tianlu Dynasty and the Aaronte Empire?"
"Tianlu National Master Taiyi Zhenren personally went to the Aronte Empire to meet the emperor and invited the two countries to attack our country together."
"evidence."
"There is no evidence, and it won't take long, and you will get news. I'll just say hello in advance."
Zakubi, a beast with a similar image to Augusta, stepped forward and the bricks and stones on the ground were shattered: "Without evidence, your news has no value, you are wasting our time!"
Gentle and soft mouth: "Who said I'm here to sell intelligence?"
"Huh?" Zakubi was stunned.
Wenrou replied leisurely: "I'm here to apply for a task."
"Task? What mission?" Zakubi was puzzled.
"Of course it is the mission to rescue Princess Carmela." Gentle smiled and replied: "I can rescue her within three days...so you'd better be polite to me."
Everyone was scared by these words at the same time.
"You can't do it, no one can do it!" Zakubi shouted.
Gentle smiled happier and happier: "Are you reminding me to have a good price? Lord Mercenary King."
