Chapter 152: The Quarrel Over the Machetemen Translator: Transn Editor: Transn
On the surface, Gu Shenwei hada drink to him, while in fact, their hatred for each other had increased
Gu Shenwei ca seemed to know that he was also here to hire ned surprise and said, “Oh, this is so coincidental Isn’t this Slave Huan? Are you running errands for the Tenth Young Master? This young chap really doesn’t kno to take care of his ht…”
Gu Shenwei felt certain that Meng Mingshi+’s coht” to hire machetemen was definitely not coincidental He said, “These men have already decided to work for reed upon? Has the contract been signed?”
Gu Shenwei shook his head
Meng Mingshi+ nodded empathetically He had come prepared, therefore he was able to keep his eed Slave Huan across the shoulders and walked him over to a less crowded place “Give me some face and let me hire these men, there are ? Let’s not keep arguing and let these poor fools be happy If you need money, feel free to let me know I don’t want to promise too much but I’m still able to fork out a few thousand taels, um, say 20 thousand taels?”
Twenty thousand taels were exactly the amount of money Gu Shenwei took fro for the Machete God? Why are you taking an interest in these guys?”
Meng Mingshi+ patted the shoulder of Slave Huan and said, “The Machete God is meant to rind, it’s different Hey, are you looking to join the Horned Dragon Society? I can introduce you into it If the Tenth Young Master or Master Yu are interested, ould welco people from the Stone Castle to join”
The hypocrisy of Fifth Young Master Mengfamily had close relations with the Golden Roc Fort and if the Horned Dragon Society was looking to induct the Tenth Young Master, it was not the place of an ordinary killer to bring the ive up hiring these men Why don’t we let the Mingshi+ changed his expressions h a new person was suddenly switched to his side
The Fifth Master swiftly lifted his arm away from Slave Huan’s shoulder, as if he had by accident touched soainst me?” He said He lifted his voice and it was a little sharp
“I don’t dare to” Gu Shenwei maintained the basic level of formality but took a step back and reached his hand towards the hilt of his knife but after aMingshi+ spread out his arms with a look of sory and unjustified He spun around so as to let everyone see hiht along, “Everyone heard it! I had forgiven this slave from the Golden Roc Fort who had offended me in the past and even offered him support and treated him as a brother Noish for a little favor fro as if he really is ht back forso?”
“There’s no wrong in it, Fifth Young Master Meng has a great heart and tolerated enough” The crowd started to chi Master Meng
This was not the arrogant and foolish Meng Mingshi+ that Gu Shenwei reuidance of somebody else Gu Shenwei retreated a few steps and waited for the commotion caused by the crowd to die down a little Then he said, “If it is a personal matter of yours truly, I would never have dared to contest with Fifth Young Master Meng However, I a machetemen for the Tenth Master, therefore I hu”
“Do you seek to pressurethe name of a little chap? You slave, I want these men Let’s see who can snatch theressive pose with his hand on his hips as a man dressed as a servant came forward He first bowed to his master, then cleared his throat and said in a clear, loud voice, “Five hundred taels every month for each person as payment for your services and the n the contract now using your palm print and you shall receive one thousand taels as upfront payment for the first two months of your service!”
The o above a hundred taels and one with a little reputation could earn up to two or three hundred taels per et them top class machetemen
The taels of silver frohtly and the croho stood behind let out sounds of appreciation Everyone seemed to want to pick up a machete and endorse the contract on the spot
It just so happened that the 20 overopposite remained silent, as if none of the Master Meng was a little shocked and looked dissatisfyingly at the servant at his side The servant also started to feel a little anxious and walked to the front of the macheteree to these terya tilted his body and shi+fted all of his body weight onto his left leg He said unhurriedly, “There’s still one more hirer Let’s see what his offer is like”
“Hey, Boss Tuo, you best not be too cocky This here is Fifth Young Master Meng, not a landlord fro Mingshi+ stepped in, “No hurry, let’s follohat Boss Tuo says Slave Huan, how much do you plan to offer?”
Gu Shenwei did a quick mental calculation: Five hundred taels per person for each month for 23 machetemen, that would amount to over 10 thousand taels a month and over four hundred thousand taels of silver over three years Even if he used that bit of inheritance froh The 20 thousand taels of silver from the Golden Roc Fort was an inadequate measure Furthermore, he had already spent a substantial aet some money in the South City Once the team of machetemen was formed up under the banner of the Golden Roc Fort, the money would start to flow in successfully
“The sa that there were people co around They seeht and only soe Forest for a walk
Fifth Young Master Meng had coht unawares and fallen into a trap He s and walked forward by two steps, getting closer to Meng Mingshi+, getting ready to hold hie
“I’ll double it to a thousand taels of silver!” Shouted Meng Mingshi+ e with Heaven He did not notice the actions of the young slave
Thewere shocked when they heard his offer The retainer for the upco Machete God was 10 thousand taels of silver, yet these norer could earn a thousand taels of silver every month Comparatively, they stood to earn even more than the Machete God annually
