After returning to the villa, Qiu Shui started chatting with the system directly.
"System, let me make a bet with you."
The system narrowed its eyes, which were as big as yellow beans. "Bet? What bet?"
"Yeah, we're free anyway. How about we make a bet to spice up our lives?" Qiu Shui said in a bewitching tone.
The system said in embarrassment: "But, this system cannot make a bet with the host casually."
Qiu Shui said angrily, "If we can't make a bet, why don't you turn it into a task? As long as I beat the old man in chess, you get me a bodyguard. If I lose, I'll give you 100 million Chinese dollars."
"100 million Chinese yuan?" The system's eyes lit up. "Is what the host said true?"
"Of course. Once something is said, it cannot be taken back." Qiu Shui patted his chest and promised.
The system inexplicably felt that something was wrong. "But you have never won when playing chess with the old man. Why are you suddenly asking this system for a task?"
Given the host's stingy personality, there's no way he would give it 100 million Chinese yuan for free.
"Of course I am confident that I can beat the old man. Just tell me, are you willing or not?" Qiu Shui leaned lazily on the sofa, looking casual on the surface, but in his heart he urged the system to agree quickly.
"Wait a minute, host. Let me think about it." The system is not stupid. It understands its own host.
He is so stingy. If he didn't have absolute confidence, how could he suddenly propose to make a bet with it?
Of course, as a serious system, there is no such thing as gambling.
Therefore, the host’s suggestion just now is very good, so let’s give the host the next task.
After all, the host hasn't accepted any missions for a while after completing the previous Hundred Man Killing Mission, and has been a bit lazy recently.
How can I not be lazy? After completing the task of killing a hundred people, I will have no luck left.
Without luck, Qiu Shui would certainly not be so active in looking for people to play chess with.
Plus, I injured my arm these past two days, so naturally I became a bit lazy.
The host actually said that he was confident that he could defeat the old man?
Although his host's chess skills have indeed become much stronger recently, he still lost to the old man when playing chess with him yesterday.
It is basically impossible to beat the old man.
Therefore, the system asked in a suspicious tone: "Host, are you trying to cheat?"
"Cheating?" Qiu Shui covered his chest, deeply shocked, his eyes immediately reddened, "System, how could you think of me like this? Do I look like someone who would cheat? You are blatantly humiliating me! Oh my God, if others knew about this, how would I have the face to go out and see people? I didn't expect that, in your system's mind, I was actually such a villain."
Seeing Qiu Shui like this, the system felt inexplicably guilty, "Okay, okay, this system is wrong. This system should not doubt the host. This system apologizes."
"So you agree?" Qiu Shui wiped the non-existent tears from the corners of his eyes.
The system gritted its teeth and said, "I agree, but as agreed, if you lose you have to give this system 100 million Chinese yuan."
"Of course, but if I win, you can't cheat." Qiu Shui laughed secretly in his heart.
"How could this system cheat? If you can win over your Go teacher, I can arrange not only one bodyguard, but even a whole team of super bodyguards for you."
"Okay, it's a deal then." Qiu Shui's face still had any grievances, now he was full of pride, "Come on, issue the task."
"Ding... Please play a game of Go with the Go teacher. If the host wins, he will be rewarded with the Super Bodyguard Team. If the host loses, 100 million Chinese dollars will be deducted."
"Wait, system. Since this game is a mission, my luck points shouldn't be deducted, right?" All his luck points were won back bit by bit by playing chess with others. Nothing can be wasted.
The system thought for a moment and said readily: "This game is a task, there is no need to deduct the host's luck value."
"That's good. Come on."
Qiu Shui can't wait any longer.
Fifteen minutes later.
"Ahhh, how could the host do this?"
The system was rolling around in Qiu Shui's mind.
"Why can't I do this?"
"How can you play Gobang with your Go teacher?"
The system never expected that after issuing the task, Qiu Shui actually went to play Go with the Go teacher. Moreover, Qiu Shui shamelessly asked the teacher to let him go first.
It is called loving children because the teacher does not like people saying that he is old.
"Gobang is also a game of chess. You just told me to play against the teacher. There is no rule that says we have to play Go!"
Qiu Shui said innocently, "Besides, the teacher has no problem with losing, so why would you, a system that issues tasks, have any problem with that?"
"Because it is this system that pays..."
The annual cost of a super bodyguard team is 100 million Chinese yuan.
100 million Chinese Yuan, that’s 10 billion Chinese Yuan in 100 years!
This is not the rebate from the rebate card, nor is it a task issued by the main system. It cannot be reimbursed to the main system!
Therefore, it has to bear this money by itself.
Ahhh, it hasn't even made any money from the host yet, and it's about to be emptied out?
Qiu Shui's brain was about to explode from the devilish voice of the system.
He quickly covered his ears, but found that it didn't work at all.
He could only helplessly say, "It's just a super bodyguard group. Only 100 million a year. Isn't it a piece of cake for you, the system? Besides, your reward doesn't specify how long it will last. I didn't ask you to give me a hundred or several decades. What's there to cry about?"
After all, he was the one who screwed over the system, so Qiu Shui couldn't go too far and try to take advantage of the small system. This is too harsh. It will be difficult to do it again in the future.
The system's crying and rolling movements suddenly stopped.
Yes, when it announced the task reward, it just said that the reward would be for a super bodyguard team, but it didn’t seem to say how long the reward would last.
"Host, you are right. This system does not specify the time limit for the Super Bodyguard Team. So..."
"So?" Qiu Shui waited for the system's answer.
If possible, the system would definitely like to hire someone for just one day.
But the bodyguard team is hired for a year at least.
The system gritted its teeth and stamped its feet, "So, that's 5 years. I will reward the host with a 5-year bodyguard team."
The system feels that as a system that shows off its wealth, it cannot be so stingy as to be looked down upon by other systems.
Besides, if it recruits bodyguards from within the system, there is a 20% discount.
If I had known this, I wouldn't have said it so easily. The host said at that time that I wanted to hire a bodyguard. The price of a bodyguard and the price of a bodyguard group are very different.
"5 years?" Qiu Shui narrowed his eyes. The system was really generous. He thought that the system would only give one year.
5 years, that's 500 million Chinese yuan. Make money, make money. Make a lot of money.
Although his heart was about to jump out of its chest with joy, Qiu Shui's face remained very calm. And pretended to be doing it reluctantly.
"Okay, five years is five years. Who made me run into such a stingy system like you? I'll take the loss."
That doting tone of "I really can't do anything about your little system" is simply amazing.
I originally thought that my host would be indignant, after all, he has suffered a lot in the past five years.
Unexpectedly, the host agreed.
How could their host be so good? It just accused him of cheating.
Not only was the host not angry, he actually reminded it that rewards could be adjusted autonomously.
The system was so touched. "Don't worry, host. This system has selected the most powerful bodyguards for you. You will definitely feel that it is worth the money."
Well, since we are spending the same amount of money, of course we should choose the best.
"Okay, I'll leave it to you then."
Qiu Shui picked up the water cup, remaining calm throughout the whole process. If you could ignore the corners of his mouth trembling slightly with excitement.
In the evening, Qiu Shui was too lazy to go out so he ordered takeout.
As a result, in less than ten minutes, the doorbell rang.
Qiu Shui walked to the door and looked at the display screen. It turned out to be a security guard.
"Hey, takeout is so fast now?"
Delivery men are not allowed to come in, so the takeaways that Qiu Shui ordered before were delivered to him by security personnel.
So, when he saw the security personnel, Qiu Shui didn't think much about it and thought it was his takeaway food that had arrived.
He immediately opened the outer door, then opened the inner door and walked out.
As a result, when I went out to take a look, I found that in addition to the security personnel, there was also an old man wearing a tuxedo and half of his hair was white.
"You are..." Qiu Shui looked at the security guard in confusion.
The security guard immediately explained, "Mr. Qiu, this is the former housekeeper of Villa No. 3. His master also has a townhouse here. He came here this time and said he wanted to give you something, Mr. Qiu."
There are very strict protection measures in Jinyue Bay.
Even if you are a former owner of the community, you cannot enter Jinyue Bay directly without the permission of the community owners.
So, the security personnel explained that the family also had a townhouse in Jinyue Bay. That's why I brought people in.
Qiu Shui suddenly realized, "Oh, you are from the Qin family, what's the matter?"
Here they come, people from the Qin family are here to visit. Was it to warn him?
But that doesn’t make sense. To warn him, just send an old butler?
"Hello, Mr. Qiu. Next week, there will be a birthday party for the head of our Qin family. The head of the family wants to invite you to attend the party. This time I came here to give you the invitation."
The old butler was very respectful to Qiu Shui and didn't say too much nonsense throughout the whole process. He just handed the invitation to Qiu Shui and left.
Qiu Shui held the invitation, looking confused.
If I remember correctly, he doesn't seem to have a very good relationship with Qin Ze from the Qin family!
The Qin family's patriarch actually sent him an invitation to his birthday party.
Are they preparing to give him a Hongmen Banquet?
