Chapter 646 So People Have to Be Honest so They Don’t Get Caught with Pigtails

In the study, Tang En and Locke sat opposite each other. Sitting next to them was Kundal. The unlucky Apocalypse whom Tang En and the others had rescued in the underground world. Since joining Ellington, the silver-level Kundal has been in trouble recently. Quite good, at least compared to the original life of an adventurer, this stable and high-quality life made him very happy.

At this time, the two of them came here to discuss recruiting rangers.

The new weapons are powerful, but unfortunately the range is too long, and without the assistance of computer intelligence systems, aiming can only be done manually by rangers. Ellington's rangers are absolutely not enough, so we can only find ways to do it from the outside. Enrollment expansion.

After knowing Tang En's idea, Locke and Kundal volunteered to take over the job.

Tang En knocked on the table: "Are you sure? There isn't much time left for you."

It is not a simple task to recruit at least twenty Silver-level rangers within a week and convince them to join Ellington.

Don't think that Ellington is developing very well now and can easily convince those rangers who are used to living a free life to join. As I said before, the Apocalypse are all arrogant. To put it bluntly, they think they have control. The power of their own destiny, so they all want to fight hard.

Only those Apocalypse who have experienced the hardships of life and have lost their pride can accept the recruitment - but those Apocalypse who have no enterprising spirit will not be of much use if Tang En recruits them.

So this task is difficult.

"no problem."

Locke nodded and said: "When I led the mercenary group, I knew many rangers. I know that those people are easy to recruit. As long as your majesty can promise enough benefits, this is not difficult."

Kundal also said: "Yes, I also know a lot of rangers. You can try to recruit them. I think they will definitely agree after seeing my current life."

"Of course there will be many benefits, but if it's too exaggerated, I don't have to take advantage of outsiders."

Although Ellington's Rangers only number a hundred people, they can still cope with this battle. If the prices demanded by others are too exaggerated, then it is better to give some bonuses to your own people to make them work harder. After all, they are operating new weapons. , there is basically no risk, and Danny’s men will definitely be happy.

Locke's expression suddenly became a little embarrassed.

Tang En thought for a moment and then said, "Let's do this. I can give you a bottom line."

"The general monthly salary for a Black Iron Ranger is one hundred gold coins, right? I'll give you two hundred. All food, clothing, housing and transportation will be arranged according to the standards of the Ellington Guard. In addition, if you have a family, you can get a house in Ellington. No matter how many wives there are, we are responsible for arranging their jobs. In addition, we can also provide subsidies for the education and raising of their children.”

"Silver level rangers, the general monthly salary for recruitment is one thousand gold coins. I will give you two thousand gold coins. The rest will also be arranged according to the standards of the Ellington Guard. That is to say, the standard equipment and supplies that the Ellington Guard can obtain." It’s all available.”

"If you meet a gold-level ranger, you can tell them that joining Ellington will give them the opportunity to be promoted to the grandmaster level. No other conditions will be mentioned."

Tang En knew that gold-level Apocalypse generally did not lack money. What they lacked was the opportunity to continue to become stronger, and Ellington could just give them such an opportunity. Therefore, although the conditions were few, it was the most attractive one. Powerful.

As for the Apocalypse Rangers above the gold level, Tang En basically has no plans to recruit them. On the one hand, such people are long-established masters. On the other hand, they are unlikely to suddenly accept recruitment from a force. What's more, they are unlikely to be recruited by a force. It was impossible to follow orders completely - he didn't need a soldier who didn't.

After hearing the conditions given by Tang En, Locke and Kundal, who were a little worried at first, breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "This is enough. Please believe us, we will definitely live up to His Majesty's trust!"

"Then go ahead. You go to Fiona and receive 10,000 gold coins each as activity funds. If you have special needs, please write an application."

Tang En really wanted to adopt the invoice reimbursement system, but unfortunately Purandal didn't have such a thing as invoices, so he could only provide sufficient funds in advance. Fortunately, it was no different than before, and a mere 20,000 gold coins was nothing.

Locke and Kundal were delighted when they heard this, and then their expressions suddenly became extremely strange. Locke smiled dryly and said: "Your Majesty, you should go and talk to Ms. Fiona in person about this..."

"Huh? Why?"

"That...that if we go..."

Locke and Kundal said hesitantly: "The funding of 10,000 gold coins will definitely be reduced to 1,000 gold coins..."

Tang En was stunned for a moment, and then he couldn't laugh or cry. He remembered what Fiona said two days ago. Fiona could really do this.

Fiona, who has experienced ups and downs in life, now has to manage such a big business as the Datang Chamber of Commerce. She must pay attention to the control of funds, and it is easy to get messed up. It can be said that careful planning has been deeply ingrained in Fiona's bones and has become an instinct. .

If Fiona approves the activity funds, it is estimated that the two people will only be given a thousand gold coins at most, which is already a lot. After all, Ellington has a teleportation array, and Locke and Kundal are also people with teleportation authority. , First of all, I saved a lot of money on transportation expenses, and I didn’t need that much to treat guests to meals and take care of myself. If I calculated carefully, there was still a surplus of a thousand gold coins.

In addition, Tang En had a dark history of spending money lavishly in the past. Fiona had to carefully consider all funding applications from him before approving them. As long as it was not really important business, she would use ruthless financial means. Cut off two-thirds of the budget with a big knife...

"Don't worry, I will go with you, and I will definitely not lose a penny from you."

Twain, who was laughing loudly, accompanied Locke and Kundal to find Fiona, and told her about the funds, and then... Twain and three people escaped from Fiona's house in disgrace with two thousand gold coins. office.

In Fiona's words, the two thousand gold coins were given extra for Tang En's sake, otherwise the two of them would only have one thousand gold coins, no more.

Looking at the weird looks in Locke and Kundal's eyes, Tang En touched his nose, his face a little red: "Don't look at me... I just realized that my face is only worth a thousand gold coins..."

Locke looked at Tang En with a resentful look on his face: "...Your Majesty, the price promised is quite a copper..."

"Ahem, you have to understand Fiona's good intentions. We are still in the development stage and there are too many places where we need money, so there is nothing we can do. Just work harder..."

Kundal whispered: "Your Majesty, this is not good. You have a tendency to be strict with your wife..."

"Nonsense!"

Tang En noticed the faint gaze behind the crack in the door, and immediately trembled: "How can you understand Fiona's good intentions! Let's go and get down to business!"

After saying that, before the two of them could speak, Tang En ran away in despair. If he didn't run away, who knows what would happen.

Locke and Kundal were confused when the door next to them opened with a creak. Fiona stood behind the door and stared at the two of them faintly: "If you don't hurry up and get down to business after taking the activity funds, you will be stuck at the door." What are you doing?"

The two people's scalps tightened, "Let's go now!", "Let's go right away!", and the two people fled.

After Fiona was promoted to gold level, she had been using them as targets in recent days in order to practice her skills, and now the two of them were scared.

Soon Locke and Kundal argued again in the teleportation hall over the allocation of funds.

Locke planned to split the funds equally, but Kundal shouted: "Wait a minute! I'm going to Yalinks, the imperial capital! The consumption is very high! So I should be given five hundred more gold coins!"

"Are you kidding! Just leave me five hundred gold coins!? Even in Bein, I can't do anything!"

"Do you know how much gold coins a major health care costs for Yalinks now!? The starting price is fifty gold coins! And it only costs a hundred gold coins to get a good one. How much does Bein cost? Ten gold coins is as high as the sky!"

"Nonsense! Bein also wants to - wait! How do you know the market so clearly? You bastard! You shouldn't have spent all your salary on this, right?!"

"What do you know! I am doing my best to help His Majesty solve your problems and do market research! Otherwise, how would you know where to entertain people? By the way, you just wanted to talk about the price of Bein? Isn't that right? I remember If it’s true, you seem to have just gotten married to Greta not long ago?”

Kundal grabbed Locke's sore foot, glanced sideways at Locke and laughed. Locke's expression changed drastically, but it was too late, so he had to cross five hundred gold coins to Kundal with a look of hatred on his face: " If you dare to say anything nonsense, be careful and I will kill you!"

"No, no, don't worry, we are all comrades in arms, how could I do something like that, right?"

"...Sometimes I really regret saving you in the underground world, really."

"Your Majesty! Someone here wants to kill someone and silence them!"

"Hmph! Get out of here!"

He kicked Kundal into the teleportation array, and then Locke looked at the bank crystal card in his hand and burst into tears. Five hundred gold coins for the activity, what an erhu egg! I originally wanted to take advantage of this public expense to have a good time, but now it's all in vain.

He would like to use his own small treasury, but unfortunately Greta has to check the accounts every few days. Even if he has the intention, he doesn't have the courage.

"Well, when I think about His Majesty being like this now, I feel more balanced."

Locke, who was sighing, felt inexplicably more comfortable when he thought that Tang En was being controlled by Fiona, and he walked onto the teleportation array and disappeared.

If Tang En knew what he was thinking, he would definitely slap him in the face and then teach him how to behave.
