Chapter 408 Expansion (1/2)
Han Xiao's eyes sparkled.
Due to the Dragon Emperor's influence, Black Star's name was now well-known. Making more connections in the mercenary industry would equate to more hiring opportunities, plus higher rewards. Those that chose to become a mercenary mostly did so for money, and this was very attractive to normal mercenaries.
”If I make an announcement and send out recruitment notices, there will be thousands of bottom level mercenaries who respond. Although expanding is beneficial for me now, there's no need to hurry it. I have the foundation now—what I need to do is strengthen Black Star's position. There's no need to expand quickly; stable growth is more important.”
Outsiders were not dependable, and his name was on the line. Han Xiao's target was the future players. He was now just waiting for the next version to start, and then, he would be able to recruit thousands of players. His size would then reach the level of the three large armies. He was not short of manpower, so there was no need to expand in a hurry.
Regardless, Sunils are a very high-quality combat power. Ever since their split, their already bad situation became worse, so their desire to earn money is stronger.
”How many want to come?” Han Xiao asked.
”About a hundred or so. They saw the news, so they reached out to me, expressing their desire to join Black Star.”
A hundred was just a small part of all the Sunil warriors. They saw the Shattered Star Ring Express News and recalled that the grade B Super Herlous of their race was in Black Star. So, someone suggested the idea, gathered about a hundred other Sunil mercenaries, and came to join Han Xiao.
”Let me talk to them personally,” Han Xiao said.
Herlous contacted them. A familiar face appeared on the communicator screen; it was Lerden, whom Han Xiao had met before. As he knew Han Xiao personally, he had been chosen as the representative.
”We meet again, Black Star,” Lerden said.
Han Xiao nodded and went straight to the point. ”You guys want to join my mercenary group?”
”Yes, what we mean is to carry out Black Star's missions under your name, and for that, we are willing to turn in fifteen percent of our commission,” Lerden said. Although they had to give a certain amount of their commission, with Black Star's connections, they would receive better treatment and be safer. They would only end up earning more.
”So, that's the joining tactic?”
Han Xiao's eyes spun. He provided resources and the Sunils provided the labor, both taking what they want.
Plus, the more officers in the faction, the better. These were all NPC resources.
Naturally, the Sunils did not know what Han Xiao was thinking. From their perspective, they benefitted more from this deal. Therefore, at this moment, both Herlous and Lerden were looking at Han Xiao nervously.
Han Xiao put on a pondering face, kept silent for a while, glanced at the nervous face of these two, and then pointed two fingers. ”I want twenty percent.”
Seeing that Han Xiao had given his terms, Lerden heaved a sigh of relief and agreed. After some discussion, they decided on the cooperation plans. These hundred or so Sunil mercenaries joined Black Star and formed a team on their own.
An application request popped up on the mercenary group panel in the communicator. Soon after, about a hundred more names appeared on the member list. Han Xiao glanced at them one by one. These Sunils were all experienced mercenaries with very long mission resumes.
”These Sunil mercenaries are quite capable. They are quite a force now that they are gathered together.”
He nodded in his mind. This team was Black Star's first detachment, the Sunil Division. The highly-skilled players and himself were the direct members. The size of the mercenary group multiplied by two to three times instantly.
The Sunil Division was like the employees, and Han Xiao just had to receive the money.
It's indeed much more comfortable being a boss.
With connections and resources, there will indeed be people who will willingly work for you.
Han Xiao opened up the Black Star Mercenary Group page—its information had already been updated.
