Wang Tong said with a smile. He refrained from raising the price not only because the Battle Wolf owed the Blizzard a favor, but also because there were not a lot of buyers out there.
Reputation was also one of the main aspects that influenced a warband's power, and therefore, Wang Tong knew that he should strike a balance between reputation and profit.
”There would be no problem at all. Although I am not in charge of our group, I can guarantee you enough food and supply that will fill up five space crystals, in addition to the agreed payment.”
”Excellent! Thank you, Lieutenant Hans!”
”You are welcome! We will be working together many times in the future. You really have made a name for yourself, Captain Tong!”
”It's very nice of you to say that. I am just lucky.” Wang Tong said with a broad smile.
”Roseau, why are you still standing here? Take your men to try on those METAL suits. This time, be more careful!”
”Yes, sir!”
”Ross, please accompany Lieutenant Roseau.” Wang Tong announced in a commanding tone.
Hans had always thought that Ross and Wang Tong were of the same rank, but every word that Wang Tong spoke suggested that it was otherwise. He didn't even see Guan Dongyang throughout this bargaining, and it occurred to him that Wang Tong had taken charge of all businesses in the camp.
”You look very young. Who is your Shifu? Are you a new generation martian?” Hans asked.
Neither Wang Tong's demeanor nor his appearance looked like a native Martian's. So, Han guessed that he settled on Mars because of the war, a part of the so-called ”New Generation.”
”Yes, I am. Unfortunately, my shifu had lost his memory. So, I don't know who he exactly is.”
”What a pity! Your Shifu must be quite a character, just like you. Captain Tong, since we are friends, please allow me to be frank with you… Don't you think Battle Wolf is a little bit too small for your talent? Why don't you join a larger war band such as the Blizzard? You have my word… If you come to us, you can have any position you would like!” Hans remarked confidently. He had finished the first half of his mission, and now, he moved onto the second half.
”Hey, Hans! Are you trying to steal our beloved captain? Did Aamir send you here?” A sassy voice rose at the door; it was Lie Xuan.
Hans let out an ugly grin after he heard Lie Xuan's voice; he knew that he had already failed in his second mission. ”Haha… What are you talking about, Princess Lie Xuan? We all love talents, don't we?”
”Hehe… Then look elsewhere.” Lie Xuan shot back.
Finding no other excuses for his actions, Hans changed the topic, ”Ah-Ha… Miss Lie Xuan, you look so pretty today! I believe everything is going well with Captain Guan, eh?”
”Pff... None of your business. Now, are you going to pay us or are you waiting for me to raise the price?”
”Yes, yes, right away. I have already confirmed the deal with our captain. I'm just going to ask Brother Guan a few questions about Mastery while I wait.”
”Fine, you better be quick. Wang Tong, Ye Zi is looking for you.”
”Hehe… Mr. Hans, please excuse me for a second.”
”No worries! Please think about what I have said.” Hans didn't mind Lie Xuan's interference in his mission. In fact, he suspected that Lie Xuan was on the same mission herself.
Before Wang Tong walked out of the meeting room, He gave Lie Xuan a thumbs up for saving him from the awkward conversation.
After Blizzard confirmed the quality of the heavy METAL, they paid the full amount that Wang Tong had asked for. Although it was a small fortune for them, Hans felt that it was well worth it. Plus, it was never a bad idea to help each other out during the time of hardship.
After having received the payment from Blizzard, Battle Wolf finally had the chance to survive normal warfare without using any tricks. Survival was always the number one priority of any warrior after all.
