Chapter 100: Mistakes will cost you
"If the player dies, he will be resurrected at the nearest resurrection point."
Bai Bing murmured, his eyes were solemn, changed, everything has changed.
The player quota has been increased from 10 million to 18 million, and players are no longer limited to one city.
In other words, as long as players have perseverance, all six million players can even gather in one city.
And in the updated content, there are only thirty resurrection points in the entire federation, which means that all important cities will be the stage for players. Those cities where even the city lords are only silver will not be intruded by players.
Didi Didi Didi
The mechanical sound sounded, interrupting Bai Yian's thoughts. He has not developed anything in the past few days, mainly the brain. If it is just a computer or instrument It would seem very cumbersome.
He plans to make some changes, such as making contact lenses or micromachines, which will undoubtedly be much more convenient, but the change will take more time, and five days will definitely not be enough.
Out of the laboratory, Bai Bian immediately saw a somewhat uneasy Sabo, and Irene, who had accepted the inheritance.
"Boss!"
Irene's eyes were filled with surprise, because it was time to pay wages again. During the one-month inheritance period, she worked for a few days at the beginning, then slept for half a month and got a raise, and when she woke up again At that time, it was time to pay wages again.
Why a migrant worker is so lucky as she is?
"What happened?" Bai Bian ignored Irene and asked Sabo directly, because he saw one thing from Sabo's expression. This guy got into trouble, and the trouble was not small.
Sabo looked at Irene, then took two steps forward and whispered: "My friend, the city lord will find you later, let's talk while walking."
Wait a moment?
Bai Bian raised his eyebrows and walked out. Sabo quickly followed, looked around furtively, and then whispered: "My friend, first of all, I want to congratulate you."
Bai Bian paused slightly, then continued walking, but his originally relaxed mood sank a little.
He asked calmly: "How do you say that?"
"Well. Hehehe, it has been thirteen days since I took office as financial officer, and during these thirteen days, the city's income has exceeded How about one billion gold coins? Are you surprised?" Sabo chuckled and said in a low voice.
Bai Bian's heart sank completely, his steps became slow, and he asked tentatively: "Minerals?"
Sabo was a little embarrassed: "Business, business, a member of the family paid a high price of 500 gold coins. They sold us fifty tons of mithril, hey, they are the most generous family I have ever seen."
Bai Bie:.
He stopped completely, turned around and walked back. , this is a pit, a really big pit.
And don’t forget the price of Mithril. Fifty tons is worth 500 million, while Saab said it was more than 1 billion
Sabo's voice was a bit resentful: "My friend, I haven't finished speaking yet. Are you sure you don't want a penny?"
Bai Bian paused, struggled a little, and finally turned around and headed towards the city lord's palace. Walked slowly: "What else? Let's talk about it together."
Sabo was a little embarrassed and was caught off guard: "Hey. Then it's still the same family that signed a friendly contract with Tobu City. Not only did they sell us mithril, they also planned to hire Tobu City's extremely professional resource collector Sabo to help them quickly collect mithril mines, and the hiring fee was 50% of that mine, and in that newly discovered mine , a total of one hundred and fifty tons of mithril is estimated."
Bai Bian gradually became numb: "What else?"
"Uh, you are so smart, my friend."
Saab sincerely praised him, and then continued: "It's still that generous family."
Bai Ying:.
Bai Ying couldn't help but interrupt Saab's speech: "Well, Sabo, you can set your target a little more broadly next time. It's easy for you to make mortal enemies."
"Listen to me, my friend. , This time it’s really not my fault.” Saab waved his hands helplessly: “Originally, it was settled as it was. We all signed a friendly and notarized contract, but they didn’t abide by the contract first, and they wanted to fire me.”
< br>"It is clearly written in the contract that if you fire me, you will need to pay liquidated damages, so I brought back one hundred and fifty tons of mithril this time."
Bai Bian's heart hit the bottom, and then rebounded. One hundred and fifty tons of mithril, ten gold coins per gram, which is 1.5 billion gold coins.
And mithril is an ultra-high-value metal. There will be no more than 500 kilograms of mithril circulating in the entire Tobu City. It is still very difficult to get that much mithril.
Thinking of this, he put down some things and put a smile on his face again: "Mr. Saab, this is obviously the other party's breach of contract first. Don't worry, this matter will not affect you, but now Should you tell me the process? "
The smile on Sabo's face completely bloomed, and he knew that he could move up the scale a little bit in his future actions.
"It's nothing. Originally, I planned to find some city owners to cooperate, but on the way there I saw the emergence of a mithril mine, so I changed my partners and established diplomatic relations with the Rena family. I wanted to Order some Mithril in the name of Dongwu City.”
"After that, I accidentally sprinkled the curse of the evil god on the mithril mine. Of course, they didn't know this. Then it was their own carelessness and did not check the contract carefully, and that's what happened in the end."
Saab smiled and said: "My friend, let me tell you, the situation at that time was very dangerous, and those guys were planning to attack me. Fortunately, I wrote a few more layers of contracts, otherwise I wouldn't be able to come back."< br>
The corner of Bai Bian's mouth twitched, and he immediately comforted him: "Thank you for your hard work, Mr. Saab, so you go ahead and do your work first. You don't need to step in for the rest."
Saab rubbed his hands. He asked with a smile: "Well, my friend, there is one more thing."
"Tell me." Bai Bian stopped, and the official street was almost in front of him, so he still finished here, Otherwise, he was afraid that the Kerry family would lose their minds.
"Federal Laws."
"Oh, I only know some basics about that, and the research is not too deep. In the future, I will probably only understand the laws of Tobu City." Bai Bian thought for a while. Said: "Also, I will give you an emergency contact number after a while. As long as you dial it, you will be able to contact me within three seconds."
"Really? Then I'll be relieved." Sabo said, turning around decisively and walking into the crowd happily.
Bai Bian exhaled, and just turned around and walked a few steps, a soldier's eyes suddenly lit up, and he trotted over quickly: "Mr. Bai Bian, the city lord is looking for you."
"I Got it, thank you for your hard work." Bai Bian said and walked towards the city lord's mansion.
The journey was smooth, and Bai Bian entered the lobby of the city lord's mansion for the first time.
There are three people here now, the old city lord sitting in the main seat, a polite blond young man opposite the old city lord, and a trembling, thin middle-aged man standing next to the young man.
The three of them noticed the arrival of the white epidemic and turned their heads at the same time, with different expressions.
Eric looked at Bai Bian with the same kind eyes as before. He took a sip of coffee and said softly: "Let me introduce to you, this guy from the Kenner family is called Xiaoti. He said... There is some misunderstanding in Dongwu City, and I want to resolve it face to face."
"Hello, Mr. Xiao Ti." Bai Bian greeted with a smile, sat next to the city lord, and asked sincerely: "What misunderstanding are you talking about? ? I don’t think I’ve heard of it.”
Xiaoti said very politely: "Hello, Mr. Baiyi, you are even more handsome than the rumors say."
Xiaoti first praised sincerely, and then said regretfully: "That's it, your The financial officer went to seek our cooperation and took away one hundred and fifty tons of mithril from us for five hundred gold coins.”
"I think the price of mithril should be transparent, so I want to see if I can return it, or go through the transaction process again with a 40% discount on the market. What do you think?" The city lord paused while drinking tea. Looking at Bai Bian, he looked helpless. Five hundred gold coins and one hundred and fifty tons of mithril seemed to be the right thing not to let that cunning dwarf be the financial officer before.
But now that young people are in power, he won't interfere too much. He just hopes that those old guys can hold on and don't get angry.
Bai Bian spread his hands: "I'm sorry, I have left all the matters of the Ministry of Finance to the Financial Officer. This matter is not something I can decide."
Xiao Ti still said politely: "I know, it's just Bai Bian Sir, you also know the importance of mithril to a family. If you return this transaction, the Kainer family will give the financial officer some compensation. What do you think?"
Bai Bian said with a smile: "Sorry, I still need to verify this matter, and I can't give you an answer for the time being."
"No rush, no rush. From Mr. Bai Ying's perspective, how long will it take for the verification to be completed? Because I was sent out by my family, Mainly because of the mithril mine, and there are no other assignments, I can temporarily live in Dongwu City, waiting for your verification." Xiaoti said seriously, his whole person's temperament was polite and neat.
Bai Bian smiled and said: "Of course Mr. Xiaoti wants to stay in Dongwu City, but I have heard about it. You seem to have signed the contract, right? It is said that you broke it first. "
As soon as he heard the word contract, Xiao Ti couldn't suppress the calmness on his face, and there was a bit of gloom in his eyes.
If it weren't for the restrictions of the contract, the man named Sabo wouldn't be able to leave the mining area. Where else could he be allowed to take away the mithril?
Obviously the one who signed the contract with the other party was this trash next to him, but God knows why that contract was transferred to those Mithril. If he dared to take action, Mithril would not only fall into the abyss, but even everyone in the Mithril mine would fall into the abyss. All will be implicated.
He said somewhat depressedly: "Mr. Bai Yie, we spent a lot of money to buy that mining area. I think we can still discuss this matter. After all, it is 1.5 billion! For Kai It’s a lot of money even for the Na family.”
He was emphasizing the number 1.5 billion and the words Kaina family, as if he was preparing to overwhelm others.
"I know, but it's true that you tried to violate the contract regulations. It seems that we don't need to pay for your mistakes. What do you think?" Bai Ying asked calmly.
Bump!
The middle-aged human race slammed the table, and his whole face turned red with anger: "You just don't want to pay it back, right? Do you go out to do business in the name of the city? Is that what you do? You are committing a crime by doing this! Do you still have the look of a big city lord?"
Xiao Ti moved his fingers, but in the end he did not stop his subordinates from questioning. There are some things that are not easy for the heirs to say. If you are just a subordinate, the conflict will be minimized.
He pretended to be displeased and scolded: "Leta! Don't be rude!"
"Who is this?" Bai Bian turned his head with some doubts and looked at the middle-aged man, Bronze Master. How dare you talk to him like this?
"This is the manager of the mining area. He is the one who signed the contract with the financial officer. If you want, you can see the power of his contract."
He finished the introduction first, Then he said apologetically: "No one will pay for someone else's wrong behavior, but Mr. Bai Zhi, is five hundred gold coins a bit too rare?
Bai Zhi looked at his phone, and then he was full He said with an apologetic face: "I'm really sorry, you came at the wrong time, because Tobu City needs development now, so Mithril has already been reserved, and someone else gave a deposit. "
"Sell? That's our stuff! Why do you sell it? "Laita couldn't hold it back again and shouted angrily: "To buy a mithril mine for five hundred gold coins, are you crazy and poor? Why not grab it? ”
Xiao Ti stopped scolding his men, the gentleness in his eyes gradually disappeared, and he looked at Bai Bie calmly.
"Is your surname also Kaina?" Bai Bian asked with a smile.
"No surname, but that is what I am taking care of. How can you take other people's things at will?"
Buzz~
A buzz sounded, and a The worker bee didn't know when it landed on Leta's shoulder.
His words also stopped abruptly when the worker bees appeared. The next moment, white foam suddenly appeared in his mouth, and his exposed skin instantly turned black and purple.
The whole person fell straight back and fell heavily to the ground.
"What are you doing?" Xiao Ti stood up suddenly, the calmness and politeness in his eyes completely disappeared, and he looked at Bai Bian in shock.
The city lord was also a little surprised. He took a sip of coffee and simply took out his tablet to watch the federal news. Through these news, watching the dawn get better little by little was his favorite thing to do. .
As for this matter, which is obviously forced buying and selling, cheating and abduction, it is too common in this world. Even if the amount is huge, in the eyes of the city lord who is more than 450 years old, this is just children's play. Just make a fuss.
"Don't be nervous, Mr. Xiaoti, this man can't die." Bai Bian said with a smile: "I just feel that he is a little rude, and I want to give him some gifts. For example, he will not be able to speak in the future."
Seeing the shock in Xiao Ti's eyes gradually turning into anger, Bai Bian analyzed it seriously: "However, it is not all rude. If you look at the whole incident, our financial officer has always acted in accordance with the signed contract. , This is definitely correct, so he gets the reward he deserves."
"And since he is right and you have such a big loss, there is only one situation where he is wrong. Bai Bian pointed at the thin middle-aged man who was still pulling out.
"If he had checked the contract carefully and read the contents clearly, he wouldn't have happened now, so his punishment is deserved, don't you think so?"
< br>Xiao Ti stared at Bai Yi with suppressed eyes: "Is this the final answer you gave?"
Bai Bian stood up, yawned, and walked out: "What's wrong with this? In a life-and-death struggle, one mistake will lead to death, which means that anyone's mistake will pay the price. You don't understand this truth. You just took the surname of Kaina?"
"Lord City Lord, I'm going back first. It's better not to receive this kind of thing in the future, so as not to hurt the peace."
As the worker bees flew away from Laita's shoulders, the originally upright middle-aged man slowly softened.
He opened his eyes and was about to say something angrily: "Abba, Ababa."
He was stunned, and then he was even more frightened. He looked at his young master. , gesturing wildly with both hands.
Xiaoti looked at Bai Bian's back, his eyes full of depression. Why did he feel that he was making trouble unreasonably this time?
He subconsciously looked at the old city lord.
Eric felt the gaze, put down his coffee, stood up with a smile, and walked out with his hands behind his back: "Old man, old man, you young people's affairs should be solved by yourselves."
Eric's voice carried a little magic: "Please inform me that I have to take a rest recently. If you have anything to do, I will go to the acting city lord. Except for the attack of foreign enemies, you don't need to report anything else to me in the future."
< br>“Yes!”
Some soldiers responded with loud voices, which were sonorous, powerful, and full of momentum, making Xiaoti's eyes filled with anger.
"Abba Abba."
Leta was still gesticulating, with a look of horror on her face, but the next moment, an extremely sinister aura erupted, and the person in front of her fell instantly. He disappeared into the shadows, screaming.
Leta stood for a long time. Although she didn't want to admit it, it seemed that Bai Bian's words made more sense the more she thought about it.
There is a price to pay for mistakes, it seems. Is it true?
But he always felt that something was wrong.
