Chapter 0255: The most expensive hourly charge in history
"Okay, okay! It's absolutely no problem. As long as you can help us, you can set the price."
In this case, Merkel nodded and agreed without any hesitation.
If life and money were used to weigh each other, Merkel would of course choose money without hesitation.
Moreover, since he became the commander of the anti-government forces, he has accumulated huge amounts of wealth over the years. Of course, this wealth was obtained by burning, killing, and looting.
"The price..."
Zhao Qitian thought for a while, then looked at Merkel and said with a smile: "Because the situation is different now, I can only provide you with a security package, which is an exclusive private bodyguard, because there are too many mercenaries outside.
Our security manpower is limited and we cannot help you kill all the mercenaries here."
"The so-called exclusive private bodyguard only protects your life and safety. It charges by the hour, one million US dollars per hour."
Zhao Qitian squinted his eyes and said with a trace of undetectable cunning.
Charged by the hour, one million US dollars per hour. This is probably the highest price for a bodyguard in history, right?
If he were a civilian, with a lion like Zhao Qitian opening his mouth, he probably wouldn't be able to survive even a minute, right?
Merkel seemed to have guessed before that Zhao Qitian would definitely blackmail him at this time, but Merkel never thought that Zhao Qitian was worse than a pot of iron and actually charged an hourly rate of one million US dollars an hour!
"What? General Merkel? If my guess is correct, you should have accumulated a lot of wealth over the years, right? Don't you want to pay for it?"
"If that's the case, then I wish you good luck..."
After speaking, Zhao Qitian smiled enigmatically and prepared to turn around and leave.
"Wait a minute, one million is one million!"
Seeing Zhao Qitian about to turn around and leave, Merkel suddenly said loudly. At the same time, Merkel looked at Zhao Qitian and said seriously: "I can give you one million US dollars in employment per hour, but you have to
Keep me safe, even from any gunshot wounds, otherwise I won’t pay you anything.”
It seems that Merkel's belief in survival is still very strong. Let alone one million, as long as she can survive, even if she loses everything, what use is the money if she dies?
When Merkel said her first sentence, Zhao Qitian turned around again and smiled confidently.
Zhao Qitian had no intention of leaving at all, because Zhao Qitian was very convinced that Merkel would definitely agree to the price he offered.
"Of course, we will protect your safety in all aspects"
"But... because of your personal financial issues, I will protect you for twenty-four hours. After twenty-four hours, you will pay me an employment fee of US$24 million, and then we can continue the discussion.
Things to do together”
Zhao Qitian's words were absolutely shrewd.
But in fact, this was just an excuse for Zhao Qitian to only provide him with security services for a short period of time.
Because if Qajar comes in with his army, and his system still has the task of protecting Merkel, it will be embarrassing at that time.
"Damn! Do you think I don't even have a little twenty-four million dollars?"
Merkel simply thought that Zhao Qitian suspected that he could not pay the salary, so he proposed to protect him for 24 hours first.
"Okay, let's hire someone for 24 hours first."
Later, Merkel nodded.
Maybe after these twenty-four hours, all of his anti-government soldiers will be killed, and those mercenaries will leave on their own initiative.
After all, without the support of any resources and food, it is impossible for these mercenaries to fight a protracted war here.
"Well, then we have decided happily."
Zhao Qitian showed a sly smile on his face as if his conspiracy had succeeded.
Subsequently, the system's prompt sounded in Zhao Qitian's mind as promised: "The system detected that the host successfully accepted a side mission and protected Merkel for an additional twenty-four hours. During the protection period, Merkel cannot be harmed in any way.
Otherwise, the punishment of charm points will be deducted according to the degree of injury. If the protection target dies, it will be considered as a failure of the side mission. If the protection is successful for 24 hours, the system will give a reward of 50,000 charm points."
Hearing the system prompt, Zhao Qitian nodded calmly.
Given Zhao Qitian's understanding of the system, the generation of such side tasks was absolutely expected and planned.
"Donor, let's leave now. This place is not permanently safe."
Zhao Qitian checked the AK in his hand, then filled it with bullets, and smiled at Merkel again.
At this time, Merkel also picked up an AK from the ground, filled it with bullets, and looked like he was filled with murderous intent.
Although Merkel is now Zhao Qitian's protection target, Merkel is not the kind of person who is helpless.
No matter what, Merkel's current status was achieved with a bloody gun.
"Donor, from now on, you must obey my command in everything, okay?"
Zhao Qitian looked at Merkel again and said.
"Um!"
Merkel nodded. Usually Merkel directs operations, but this time she has to obey Zhao Qitian's command. Although this makes Merkel feel a little uncomfortable, she looks at Zhao Qitian's confident face.
Smiling, Merkel subconsciously has an impulse to trust.
Soon, under the leadership of Zhao Qitian, the two went downstairs.
Under the cover of night, the visibility on the entire streets of Gubai is very low, because the power system of Gubai has long ago collapsed, and there are no street lights at all.
But this is undoubtedly the most advantageous for Zhao Qitian, because Zhao Qitian's senses are very sharp. Even if he can't see it, he can clearly feel any movement around him through his hearing.
This is how Zhao Qitian can avoid enemies skillfully.
However, although Zhao Qitian has a mission now, he has no plans to avoid the enemy yet, but to find the target!
Because this dark night is very suitable for action.
"Be careful and hide, follow me"
Zhao Qitian seemed to have discovered something at this time, and then booed Merkel directly behind him and ran to another street.
Merkel quickly followed.
Merkel originally thought that Zhao Qitian had discovered the enemy and ran to this street to avoid it. But what Merkel didn't expect was that Zhao Qitian actually ran to this street and took the initiative to find a group of about forty people.
A mercenary squad!
This Zhao Qitian actually caught up with him alone?
This makes Merkel feel very incredible!
Chapter completed!
