"Old Bai, just follow me and I'll pay you whatever you want." Li Mu said generously, there is nothing that money can't solve, even a lazy man will be willing to work for you as long as the money is paid.
Seeing Li Mu so persistent, Bai Tao fell into deep thought. It was not that he did not want to earn Li Mu's money, but due to the laws of the Feiyun Empire, he could not easily agree. Although he was immortal, if he violated the law and was caught and tortured, it would be difficult for him to bear it.
Whether to work for Li Mu or not depends on whether Li Mu can give enough and whether it is worth the risk. After thinking about it, Bai Tao tentatively said, "Old Li, I can get about 10,000 yuan every day these days. After deducting the cost, there are still several thousand yuan. Although this is not normal, it is too dangerous to follow you. I don't ask for much. Just 10,000 yuan will be fine."
Hearing Bai Tao's exorbitant demands, Ning Xin could no longer sit still and said indignantly, "I only make 5,000 a month. Why do you want 10,000? Uncle, don't be too ambitious. It's good enough that my boss can give you a decent job."
"Who told you 10,000 a month? I mean 10,000 a day, 300,000 a month!" Bai Tao said angrily. Are you kidding? Who would do such a dangerous job for 10,000 a month? Not to mention that he can earn thousands of dollars a day by begging these days, even if he works hard, it won't be a big problem to earn 10,000 a month. The key is that he earns money steadily, freely and easily.
Ning Xin was stunned when she heard that. This old beggar really dared to ask for such a high price. She only made 5,000 yuan a month, which was only 60,000 yuan a year, but he wanted 300,000 yuan a month, which was her salary for five years.
"Haha, I know my price is very high, but there is no way, the risk is too great. Lao Li, if you really can't bear to pay this money, I still suggest you find a fourth-class citizen like her, who is cheap and easy to use, unlike me with old arms and legs, who has to sit down and take a breath after walking for a while." Bai Tao smiled, which was also what he thought in his heart. Wouldn't it be stupid for Li Mu to find him to recruit an assistant? If he and Li Mu switched roles, he would never find a fifth-class citizen to do things for him.
However, Li Mu's answer surprised both of them: "Okay, I promise you, and I can also directly advance you one month's salary...gift fee."
Having said that, Li Mu directly opened his mobile phone and transferred 300,000 yuan to Bai Tao. This was to strike while the iron was hot so that Bai Tao would not regret it again.
"This..." Bai Tao was speechless.
"Boss, this is unfair. Why can he get 300,000 a month, while I only get 5,000? He's just... his physique is so weak that he can't even beat a kid!" Ning Xin said anxiously. There is no harm without comparison. If Bai Tao hadn't happened, she would think that a monthly salary of 5,000 was not bad, but with Bai Tao as a comparison, she naturally felt unbalanced.
Bai Tao was immediately displeased when he heard Ning Xin say this: "Little girl, how can you talk like that? What do you mean I can't even beat a kid? You are discriminating! Besides, I make a living with my brain, and I am a leader even in the beggar industry!"
Watching the two quarreling, Li Mu stroked his forehead, transferred the money again, and then said: "Okay, Xiao Ning, I have already reimbursed you for the salary just now, and you will also get 300,000 a month from now on."
Ning Xin was stunned when she saw this. How could she earn 300,000 yuan a month? She wouldn't dare to dream about it, right? But it happened. Looking at the balance in her account, Ning Xin began to doubt her life.
Li Mu did not continue to dwell on this issue, but asked Bai Tao: "Old Bai, there is a very urgent matter now, I need you to help me with some advice."
When Bai Tao heard Li Mu say this, his heart skipped a beat. As expected, there is no such thing as a free lunch in the world. Li Mu might be in trouble. However, he had just taken Li Mu's money, so Bai Tao couldn't get angry. He decided to wait and see what the matter was. If it was too tricky, he would just turn around and leave. Anyway, Li Mu didn't sign a contract with him, and the money given to him was a gift.
Then he said calmly, "Tell me about it."
"It's like this. If you were in that situation back then and a super genius appeared under your command, who even had the potential to surpass you, what would you do?"
"Haha, of course I will do my best to cultivate him. I, Bai Tao, have always been upright in doing things. I am not the kind of person who is petty. I would be very happy if my subordinates become stronger or even surpass me! Not only that, I will also do my best to cultivate him."
"Really?" Li Mu narrowed his eyes and looked at Bai Tao. He was deeply skeptical of what Bai Tao said.
Bai Tao felt uncomfortable when Li Mu looked at him. He said helplessly, "Alright, alright, I admit that I didn't mean it, okay? What kind of subordinates are they if you can't control them? And you still want to surpass me? You definitely can't let them grow up. Not to mention subordinates, I would have to kill even my own son to feel at ease. Don't look at me like that. It's the same in any world. It's better to trust yourself than anyone else. Only a fool would watch his subordinates become uncontrollable!"
"Old Li, why are you asking this question? You are not young anymore, why do you need to ask me such a simple truth? Besides, in our current situation, our survival is not guaranteed, why are you thinking about these messed up things?"
"Haha, nothing, just asking casually. What if you were a subordinate of a powerful being, with outstanding talent and the capital to surpass the powerful being? What would you do?"
"Of course I will hide. A tree that stands out in the forest will be destroyed by the wind. When I have the power to protect myself, I will never show it. That's what I did back then."
"What if the powerful has already discovered you?"
"Run, if you can, or die."
"Li Mu, what do you want to say? The questions you asked are too low-level, I'm afraid even a fool can answer them, little girl, don't you think so?" Bai Tao was speechless.
Ning Xin didn't want to pay any attention to Bai Tao at this moment. A beggar was talking about strategy. What kind of great power was that? And he was gifted? Is that something a beggar like you can consider? You two can brag about your bragging, but don't drag me into it.
Ning Xin was concentrating on eating the biggest meal she had ever had in her life and didn't want to pay any attention to Bai Tao at all.
