Chapter 854: The Storm of Team Building (5)
Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
As for handing the gun to soone else and letting them get out of the car with Old Yu…
He thought about it and figured no one would be willing to do it. Besides, during the exchange process, unforeseen events might occur, ruining the entire situation.
Zheng Zi Qiu seed like a suitable candidate to coerce Old Yu out of the car, and Zhao Yu had no objections to this.
However, knowing Zheng Zi Qiu’s character, if he handed over the gun, who knew if he would turn around and give it to Old Yu?
“This isn’t a good idea…”
Just then, a dissenting voice rang out.
Zhao Yu turned around in surprise and found that the one speaking up for him was none other than the introverted and timid Liu Wen Jing.
Seeing Zhao Yu look over, Liu Wen Jing’s face imdiately flushed, but within her evasive gaze, a hint of determination began to erge.
Seeing her smile, Zhao Yu suddenly smiled as well.
Ever since breaking up with Gao Qi, he had been muddled, unsure of his goals or the aning of his life.
Especially these past few days, he felt an overwhelming emptiness, as if he had forgotten sothing important.
Right now, coercing Old Yu with a gun, facing a group of ard thugs—initially, he was very scared, but now, he felt a bit excited.
This made Zhao Yu realize that perhaps he was the type of person who enjoyed taking risks.
In the peaceful and stable environnt of current era, his true nature had been suppressed.
“Alright, I’ll get off with you. Let the others go!”
Zhao Yu nodded and said.
The others were alright, but Liu Wen Jing’s smile was very soothing. Coupled with the fact that there was no other way, this was the only option.
Aside from Liu Wen Jing, everyone else, including Old Yu, breathed a sigh of relief.
And so, under everyone’s watchful eyes, Zhao Yu escorted Old Yu off the bus.
“All of you, co over here!”
Zhao Yu stuck close to the bus door, ordering Old Yu to translate.
Soon, the ard thugs stood to one side, while Zhao Yu stood with Old Yu on the other side.
Once they ford a standoff, the bus finally started, turned around, and drove away.
The rear window of the bus was filled with people.
Everyone looked back at Zhao Yu, left alone to face a group of thugs. They felt pity but dared not speak, fearing any unforeseen events.
“This feeling is quite heroic…”
Zhao Yu chuckled self-deprecatingly.
He never thought he would play the hero one day.
“Brother, you’re quite skilled. Have you thought about joining us?!”
Old Yu, not giving up on self-rescue, began to employ roundabout tactics.
Earlier, with others around, a direct offer might not have been accepted by Zhao Yu due to pride.
But now, with just the two of them, there was a higher chance.
Before Zhao Yu could respond, Old Yu continued to tempt him, “Join us, and you’ll make money, have won, and you can even kill if you want…”
“I have a good eye for people. You’re not a sheep; you’re a wolf. You should be among wolves…”
“Money…”
Zhao Yu thought of the reason Gao Qi broke up with him. She talked about losing hope and seeing no future, but in the end, wasn’t it just because he was poor?!
“How much money?!”
“At least 100,000 a month, no, 200,000…”
“This is only the price of an ordinary shooter. With your skills, it can go up.” Old Yu saw that Zhao Yu had an idea and quickly said.
He continued, “As for the won, you saw it yourself. If it weren’t for your interference, you could have done whatever you wanted with that truckload of beautiful won…”
When Old Yu first founded the company, his intentions were far from pure. His goal was to lure people to Canaan with deceit, and naturally, when recruiting won, he selected the prettiest ones.
Upon hearing this, Zhao Yu shook his head, “How can I be sure you aren’t just humoring , waiting for to drop my guard so you can kill ?!”
“Besides, how is a gunman worth a hundred thousand or two hundred thousand a month?!”
He didn’t believe it. A gunman could be trained from just about few month by anyone with a little instruction.
According to his guess, the group behind Old Yu was of a criminal nature. Many gunn were rely needed to brutal enough to kill ordinary people like them and didn’t require any special combat skills.
After all, it was widely known that Canaan was rife with warlords, and every criminal organization had a warlord as their backer.
“Brother, I swear to you, I would never deceive you…” Old Yu said earnestly.
But Zhao Yu was still skeptical. He didn’t dare to take a gamble.
After a mont’s hesitation, “How about this, you have soone bring another car, and I’ll take you to a safe place and let you go there. How about that?”
Old Yu’s face imdiately fell, “Brother, don’t do this. If you do this, they won’t release anyone…”
Zhao Yu snorted coldly, “If they won’t release anyone, then I won’t release you. How about we just die together today!”
Old Yu fell silent.
Trading his life was not sothing he was willing to do. In his view, his life was worth far more than Zhao Yu’s.
But right now, it seed he had no other option.
After a full minute, Old Yu finally spoke, jabbering away to the other ard thugs.
One of the thugs pulled out a phone, calling soone unknown.
Old Yu let out a sigh of relief.
“Brother, don’t worry. I’ve sent soone to get a car. We’ll do it your way. But you must keep your word and let go once we reach a safe place…”
“Alright!”
Zhao Yu nodded.
Though he had a gun in hand, he wasn’t actually brave enough to kill anyone.
And so, both sides temporarily reached an agreent.
While waiting for the car to arrive, Old Yu seized the chance to extol the benefits and perks of their company.
“What’s so great about going back to Da Xia?”
“Once you go back, you’ll still be working for soone else. Even if you make it to the top, earning fifty thousand a month, that’s only six hundred thousand a year, not even enough to buy an apartnt…”
“Going back ans you’ll still be just a worker. You’d be better off staying here…”
Seeing that Zhao Yu remained silent, Old Yu beca more animated, “I can introduce you to the boss. With your skills, you’d be more than qualified to be the boss’s personal bodyguard…”
“That would be a life of wealth and honor…”
“If you have ambition and want to make sothing of yourself, it’s entirely possible. Our group is backed by warlords, and you could join them, with titles and power within your reach…”
At that mont, Old Yu stopped bragging and his expression turned tense.
Zhao Yu turned to see a convoy approaching in the distance, all military trucks filled with ard soldiers. At a glance, there were seven or eight trucks, each packed with heavily ard personnel.
Old Yu’s heart sank, “Damn it, why are they coming…”
