At the scene, both sides looked at each other and then introduced themselves.
Jacob is one of the board members of the Mercenary Guild and the president of the Mercenary Guild branch in Olai District. Taiga and Good are among the cadres of the Mercenary Guild, and were dispatched by the headquarters to assist branch president Jacob.
"Boss Long, on behalf of the Mercenary Guild, I sincerely invite you to join the Mercenary Guild." Jacob said to Long Fei in a sincere tone.
"What benefits will we get if we join the Mercenary Guild?"
"You can use our Mercenary Guild's commission network. There are countless corporate groups that will commission us. All mercenary groups that are members of the Mercenary Guild can accept missions according to their levels."
"What else?"
"For example, if you complete the mission but don't receive the full amount, the Mercenary Guild will provide free legal assistance to help them file a lawsuit to get the remaining amount back."
"Oh, to get such treatment, you have to pay a corresponding price to join your guild's mercenary group." Long Fei showed a playful smile, he didn't believe that there was such a good thing.
"As Boss Long said, there are indeed some corresponding costs. Every mercenary group member of the Mercenary Guild must pay membership fees every year. The amount of membership fees is determined by level. Although the higher the level, the more annual membership fees are paid, they can all get corresponding treatment. For example, when there are good assets to be auctioned, we will also notify the higher-level mercenary group members of the auction, and the entrance fee to the auction will be paid directly by our Mercenary Guild."
"Really? I think there's something else. You need to continue explaining."
"For any mission assigned by our Mercenary Guild, once the mercenary group members complete it, they must pay 10% of the remuneration to the Mercenary Guild. If it is a private job you take, as long as it is not illegal, our Mercenary Guild will not interfere and will not ask for a commission."
After listening to Jacob's explanation, Long Fei already had a ruler in his mind.
As the saying goes, there is no such thing as a crime. Especially the Mercenary Guild, they chose to come to us today and in this place, their motives are very impure.
I guess these guys have already set their sights on the military technology he developed.
Now his development is at its peak, and the Tianyi Mercenary Group has been very prominent in recent months, which has attracted many businesses to come to them.
Some companies have signed long-term business contracts directly with the Tianyi Mercenary Group. One day every week for 12 months a year, a certain company will be escorted by a fleet of the Tianyi Mercenary Group.
It can be seen that these companies recognize and are confident in the strength of the Tianyi Mercenary Group.
This not only made many of their peers jealous, but even the business of the Mercenary Guild was affected to some extent, with the branches of the Mercenary Guild in the Olai District (including dozens of countries including the Kingdom of Mijaon) being the most affected.
As one of the directors of the Mercenary Guild and the president of the Olai District Mercenary Guild branch, the rise of the Tianyi Mercenary Group was not good news for Jacob.
Once there is a powerful mercenary group that does not need to join a mercenary guild and can constantly strive for self-reliance, the influence of the mercenary guild will be greatly impacted.
Therefore, Jacob wanted to pull the Tianyi Mercenary Group into the Mercenary Guild before the Group became stronger, and then find a way to suppress the development of the Tianyi Mercenary Group.
Long Fei himself also roughly understood Jacob's purpose, and he also followed a principle: if you rely on mountains, the mountains will fall; if you rely on people, they will run away; it is better to rely on yourself than to ask others; self-improvement is the kingly way.
"Thank you very much for the attention and kindness from the president of the Jacob branch. I am just more used to working alone. I have not yet considered joining the Mercenary Guild despite the invitation from the president of the Jacob branch. Of course, I just have no plans at the moment. I may want to join in the future. When the time comes, I will send someone to visit the president of the Jacob branch and ask to be allowed to join the Mercenary Guild."
Taiga and Good looked at each other, their eyes revealing not surprise, but anger, because they understood what Long Fei meant. Although he did not say it firmly on the surface, they already understood that he meant to refuse to join the Mercenary Guild.
The people in power behind the Mercenary Guild are the four great families in the colony. Basically, any mercenary group that dares to refuse the invitation of the Mercenary Guild will end up in a miserable situation.
The two people who were born into wealthy families really could not accept Long Fei's attitude. You know, no one has ever said no to their invitation, but they encountered it today.
The two were thinking about how to deal with Long Fei and how to take away all of his coveted military technology.
Jacob, who was more tactful, did not see the anger that flashed in the eyes of the two men. Instead, he stood up with a smile.
"We were indeed very abrupt in coming here. We were wrong to come and invite Boss Long out of the blue. It is indeed wrong of us to cause trouble to Boss Long. If Boss Long has thought it over, you are welcome to join our Mercenary Guild. The door of our Mercenary Guild is always open to you."
After saying this, Jacob walked up to Long Fei and stretched out his right hand.
Long Fei also stood up and shook hands with Jacob, then shook hands with Taiga and Good, and then asked the colonel to see the guests off on his behalf.
"Boss, if we directly reject their invitation now, aren't you worried that they will trip us up?" Li Jiaming asked with some concern.
"If we join them now, these guys will definitely find ways to hinder our development. Instead of that, why not let them make trouble first, and then we can give them a slap in the face and show them that we are not easy to mess with. Then, even if we join them, the Mercenary Guild will not dare to mess with us again."
"Then Boss, when do you think they will make their move?"
"I can't say that the one called Jacob is an old fox. As for the other two, although they just concealed their expressions, I can see their anger and dissatisfaction. These two guys must be used to being high and mighty and can't stand a small person like me daring to reject them. I guess these two guys will take action in a few days and send people to secretly monitor them."
"Boss, will you return to the Ms Albion mothership today?" Li Jiaming asked.
"Not really. Anyway, today is the first day of the opening of this branch base, and there will be a banquet tonight. Let's stay here tonight. I plan to take some time off in the next few days."
…
After Jacob and his group walked out of the Tianyi Mercenary Group's branch base, they left in their own luxury car.
Tyga and Goode were sitting in their own limousines, chatting via video.
"Goode, that kid really needs to be taught a lesson, otherwise he really doesn't know how high the sky is and how thick the earth is."
"I think so too. What do you think we should use..." Before Good could finish his words, messages came from both of their phones.
They both looked at the messages on their phones at the same time, then looked at each other.
“I have been invited.”
"Is it the Long family from the Hanxia Kingdom?" Good asked tentatively.
"Yes, yours too."
"Yes, I wonder why this Hanxia family would come to both of us at the same time?"
"Well, what are you going to do?"
"And you, do you accept the invitation?"
"I want to know why the Long family invited me. I have to go and see what's going on." Taiga decided to accept the Long family's invitation.
"Okay, since you're going, I'll go too."
