Damn it, this boss really has no normal skills.

Chapter 168 Death comes to me

In fact, Ji Ming really wanted to know what the other person's expression would be like if he showed his body now.

But I wasn’t acting in a horror movie, and although it was fun, it was too much fun and could easily ruin things, so I gave up in the end.

Varya also lowered her head after some thought.

"Father, I will consider this matter carefully."

"Very good, you have to learn more, speak more, ask more, and think more, so that you can become an excellent Cyclops."

Baptiste paused briefly.

"And, an excellent successor to the chief."

After completing the extra parent-child education session, he brought the topic back to business.

"As I said before, Varya, you look good. I believe the negotiation went well, right?"

"Their commitment is similar to what was in the previous letter, and they even added some terms that are beneficial to us."

Varya took out a parchment from her pocket and placed it in front of her father.

"This is a formal agreement between the two parties, please take a look at it."

Although the parchment itself has nothing special, because it can be used to make magic scrolls, the documents signed with it are often very important and are a symbol of seriousness and formality.

So while Baptiste was studying it carefully, Varya was anxiously waiting for her father's evaluation.

Ji Ming moved his position and came to a place where he could take pictures of the contents of the agreement.

It must be said that the person who wrote this agreement has a pair of skillful hands, and the words he wrote are both delicate and beautiful.

Although the text seems a bit small due to the large amount of content, who asked Ji Ming to enlarge it after taking a screenshot of the system?
The core logic of the entire agreement is actually very simple, that is, the Demon Spirit Tribe will provide technical support for the other party's development in the underground plains, and the other party will provide various materials for the Demon Spirit Tribe.

Judging from the types of supplies, the Demon Spirit Tribe was really lucky. Not even Ji Ming could have such a complete resource reserve.

Those few magic-related things alone are already hard goods that cannot be found in ordinary shops.

but.

This "opponent" is none other than the mountain mercenary who set up a checkpoint at the exit.

However, the one who signed the contract with the Demon Spirit Tribe was not the mountain man Red Dragon, but the one with the same handwriting as the one mentioned above...

Andrew Gunsan?
Although according to rumors, Andrew is suspected to be a descendant of the northern nobles, he has never revealed his noble surname.

So is this his own intention, or is someone causing trouble?
Ji Ming was still thinking silently, while Varya had already taken out a delicate box from the cloth bag she carried with her.

"This is a gift they gave you. I have checked it and there is nothing wrong with it."

Opening the lid of the box, there is a very beautiful staff in red velvet.

Although due to the lack of supplies in the underground plains, even though Baptiste is a chief, he has not seen many good things.

But as a mage, you can still tell the quality of a staff from a bad one.

He released his magic power and blended into it, pondered it carefully for a moment, and looked happy.

"This is a good thing."

But after thinking for a moment, he loosened his grip on his hands.

"It's a pity that it's not suitable for me anymore, Varya, let you hold it."

Ji Ming didn't have time to watch other people's little drama of warmth, except for the kind of father, son, filial piety, brother and friend.

So after seeing the two of them returning from business to parent-child education, he teleported away from the magical forest.

Based on his understanding of the mountain mercenaries, there is definitely something fishy in this agreement.

In other words, it is a common trick of colonists to make friends with the strongest local forces in order to drive away tigers and devour wolves, with the winner taking all.

When the time comes, if the Cyclops can keep his body intact instead of being skinned and dismantled and sold, it will be regarded as a great blessing.
However, although Ji Ming had some ideas, he did not intend to point out this matter.

After all, this is their honeymoon period, and if you, a stranger, jump out to object, then wouldn’t it be you who becomes the villain?
not to mention.

Mercenaries just want to have fun with whoever they want to make friends with. The biggest gain from this trip is——

“There is a road to heaven but you don’t take it, and there is no door to hell but you break in!”

I've been busy with business these days and haven't had time to arrange things for you. How dare you come to the underground plain by yourself?

Ji Ming immediately started to shake people, and soon gathered a production team whose combined level was approaching level [-].

"You guys wait outside first and watch me give the signal before rushing... Chloe, do you have any questions?"

"no!"

Wang Zha definitely couldn't attack him right from the start, so Ji Ming hung a few biological and chemical nuclear bombs on his waist and prepared to try to execute them himself first.

But he walked around the camp, rummaged from the residence to the warehouse, but could never find Andrew.

He also mobilized the map and checked all the white spots in the area one by one. He found that the highest level here was a [-]th-level mountain man Red Dragon Captain, and there was no such thing as Andrew at all.

"What about people?"

Finally, he simply caught a lone mercenary and used the suggestion technique to "question" him.

"Although I don't know why I said it to myself, but..."

"Captain Andrew left at noon and only stayed here for a total of one hour..."

Run fast!

Helpless, Ji Ming had no choice but to announce the cancellation of the operation and was disappointed...

You’ve come, you can’t just leave empty-handed!
Coincidentally, when Andrew came here to participate in negotiations, he also brought a convoy of supplies.

Moreover, this batch was several times larger than the previous one, and it was simply not a quantity that a third-rate mercenary group could use.

Considering that Dean An personally came to the underground city to sign the contract, is it possible that the exploration has been roughly completed and is ready for large-scale "development"?

Looking at the Hammer mercenaries who are "support" in name, but are several levels higher than the mountain red dragons per capita, who never leave their weapons, and whose eyes are everywhere...

I'm afraid this bowl of soup is not worthy of the red dragon.

But these things have nothing to do with Ji Ming, he is just a doctor.

and so……

He really couldn't bear to see several warehouses suffering, so he quickly took action to help them treat it.

After clearing out this batch of supplies in a timely manner, he also asked the young boss to count the inventory in the storage room.

It was discovered that after two waves of mercenary sponsorship and one wave of bandit funding, the total number of weapons and equipment had exceeded four figures.

"They are all living Bodhisattvas. If we conduct a closed beta test with a thousand people, why is it that the initial cost is not as much as the closed beta test with a hundred people?"

Doing good deeds without leaving a name, Ji Ming turned back from the easternmost part of the underground plain, all the way back to the military camp.

It's a pity that although there are still some small groups in this line in the middle of the underground plain, they are generally out of date.

After getting off work early, he first used various official accounts to announce the announcement of the list of internal beta test candidates at noon, and then rolled out his bed and fell asleep.

But he was asleep, and he was still in the real world of workdays, where people had just woken up.

I was about to watch short videos on the way to work, or take the time to check my daily life on mobile games, but I found that I was in almost every group of people on Aite.

[Brothers, the closed beta list will be announced at noon, everyone remember to watch it! 】

[Holy crap, I finally got the qualifications]

【I live just for today! 】

[Wait a minute, why didn’t the official say when the release will be? 】

"Ok?"

Fu Le, who was in a hurry and gathering his subordinates for a morning meeting, also discovered this problem.

You must understand that once the project team starts operating, it will continue to burn money.

Only by knowing the specific time can we better arrange the tasks for the next period of time.

He lingered on the floor-to-ceiling windows for a moment.

"Is it possible that the officials forgot?"

Similar doubts began to spread, and sporadic inquiries appeared in the comment areas of major official accounts.

After the official did not respond for a long time, it quickly evolved into a very intense scene of screen flooding and Internet madness.

The hip-hop cool old man model plays: [What time, time, time...]

[Uncle, did you get the wrong number? 】

[I’m going, why are all the bloggers urging me to play]

Zhang Zhiwei: [Officials are really tolerant. They must often use the third generation of our Qingzhuling to practice.]

[No, Brother Cup has changed his number again?Where is my second generation Peach Blossom Fairy? 】

[Let’s not mention that this is station D and not Tieba... Byd, you just won’t let anyone go, right?] Lin Xiao Ricardo: [Everyone is in a hurry, I’m not in a hurry, I have already received the invitation code in full, everyone in the woods, I respect you. Please look forward to it! (Comparison)】

【Ah ah ah ah ah, I knew that my brother could do it, he could do it, he could do it】

[Which byd fool is this, making waves with cyberspace again? 】

There was a scramble, a clamor, and the heat was as smooth as Wallace's.

So [Qualification for internal testing is the hardest to wait for! ! ! 】Successfully defeated a certain star in jail and a certain star's new album at [-] o'clock in the morning, and topped the Weibo hot search list.

On this day, bosses all over the country discovered why people in the company had reduced their work efficiency so much, and they had to check their mobile phones from time to time.

Well, in fact, more bosses have not discovered this at all, because they themselves are also crazy about electronic products.

"Ah, I forgot to indicate the specific time?"

Ji Ming, who had been sleeping all day and night, woke up in a daze and saw this scene.

I originally wanted to quickly make up for it at [-] noon, but then I thought about it.Anyway, everyone is already anxious, so let’s be anxious.

So he stretched and lay down again.

I wanted to sleep peacefully for a while longer, but I always felt like something was wrong.

Open your eyes suddenly.

"Wait a minute, it's already this hour, why is there no movement outside?"

I hurriedly got dressed and went downstairs, only to find that the patient who used to be refreshed as soon as I left for a moment was gone.

It was daylight, but there was no hair in front of the clinic.

Ji Ming scratched his head, wondering if a chemical crisis broke out in Sunshine City and everyone ran away?

But looking at the door, I found that the shops and stalls in the commercial street were operating normally, and the only exception was the clinic.

In the past, he might have thought about it for a while, but now he has a better choice.

"Isn't today your day off?"

"what?"

Blois lit the candle, looking puzzled.

"According to the teachings of the Holy Light Church, Saturdays and Sundays of every week are God-given days of rest..."

In fact, there are patients today, and because something happened in the outer city yesterday, there are quite a few.

But now Dr. Ji Ming is the last conscience of Sunshine City and the chosen saint of the Holy Light Church. They really can't afford to offend him, so no one dares to knock on the door and call someone.

I originally thought of waiting for the doctor to open the door on his own, but after the church heard that a large group of people had gathered in front of the Crooked Tree Clinic, it directly sent the Holy Knight to disperse them.

"Hey, what are you doing!"

It was already very unlucky, and no one wanted to bring bad luck to the church, so the sensible patients left one after another and went to other clinics.

……

"What about Adele?"

"She felt that you were not in good condition recently and needed more rest, so when she saw that the clinic was not open, she left directly."

Nice guy.

Ji Ming struggled for a moment between opening the business and resting safely, and finally sighed.

"Forget it, just rest."

But this time he set the time in advance, and after reminding the boss to help with the inspection, he temporarily switched to the Huilong Sect.

The sun gradually climbed higher and the time came to noon.

[Okay, okay, the nine o'clock party, the ten o'clock party, and the eleven o'clock party are all seriously injured and fell to the ground. I want to see if the twelve o'clock party can succeed! 】

[Laughing, I dare say it will definitely be three o'clock at noon. If I can come out now, I will broadcast the handstand peeing]

【……Out】

【? 】

[Which live broadcast room are you hosting in? Everyone wants to watch it]

[Don’t worry, I won (screenshot)]

【? ? ? 】

Seeing the netizens laughing and playing, Zhang Tu put down his phone happily.

The swaying long-distance bus also gradually slowed down, and finally stopped next to a newly built bus stop.

"Okay brother, I'm getting off now!"

After saying hello to the driver from his hometown, Zhang Tu picked up the bundle and dragged the huge suitcase towards the village on the other side of the road.

It's not that he never returned home after he was released from prison, but he only stayed there for three days before being taken away by Uncle Li to work.

The days in the city were dreamy, but what was even more dreamy was the gaming helmet I got by accident.

When I touched it for the first time and just wanted to sell it for money, I never imagined today...

The anxiety of returning home made him think wildly, and his mind was filled with messy memories, until he suddenly heard an exclamation.

"Tuzi, why are you back?"

It turned out that he was carrying a small bag of green vegetables, and he looked at the old lady who looked very skinny.

"Mom, I... made some money in the city. I thought it was getting colder, so I hurried back."

"Tsk, what month is it already? Others are rushing to the city to work to have a good year. Why do you..."

Although he blamed him, he did not refuse. Amidst the familiar chatter, he returned to his home again.

"I'm telling you, Yuhao from next door got married at the end of last month. Look at when you...hey, what are you doing?"

"There's something for you to see, something good!"

After closing the courtyard door and locking the house door, Zhang Tu mysteriously pulled his mother into the back room and took out his mobile phone.

"Mom, look at this..."

Zhang's mother is a rural woman and not a recluse, so she can naturally understand the most basic electronic products.

She squinted for a moment, then counted for a moment, and finally.

"Huh? How do you have so much money???"

"Earn it!"

Zhang Tu smiled happily.

"Serious, legal and compliant, earned!"

With Uncle Hua taking the lead and Fei Boliuxing, a rich second-generation kid, helping out, the players' invitation codes were sold very professionally.

Not only is the entire process fair and open, but buyers must submit relevant information and undergo a comprehensive qualification check to eliminate the appearance of scalpers.

Therefore, all the invitation codes were sold at a quite exaggerated price. Not to mention anything else, the price jumped from one to three at the beginning.

However, such an income was too "avant-garde". Zhang Tu explained over and over again for a long time before he finally explained to his mother that he had sold the invitation code.

Mother Zhang felt relieved.

"Oh, this love is so good, this love is so good!"

After smiling happily for a while, she whispered.

"However, since you have decided to return to the village, you still need to maintain good neighborly relations."

"It just so happened that my mother heard some movement in the neighbor's old house this morning. It seems that a descendant has moved back..."

Although there are not many people in the village, people can see each other without looking up, and interpersonal relationships are more important than in the city.

Zhang Tu nodded, went to the canteen to buy a carton of eggs and yogurt, and knocked on the neighbor's door.

"Who?"

The voice behind the door was somewhat familiar, which made Zhang Tu stunned for a moment.

"I am from the neighbor Zhang's family..."

"Old Zhang?"

The rusty iron door creaked, and a middle-aged man with dark circles under his eyes and a shabby face peeked out.

……

"grim Reaper!?"
