Brother Ah Zheng felt that if they were running, they should look like they were running. Regardless of whether he was the world's number one assassin, he couldn't be too impetuous because of his fame. Being low-key was the awareness that every runner should have.
But Houzi didn't think so. He felt that as the world's number one good brother and comrade-in-arms, the passive behavior of running away should not appear on Xiao Zheng. Even if he really wanted to run away, it should be in the name of "changing positions" rather than running away.
Therefore, he combed a very playful hairstyle for himself and wore a handmade suit. Although it was hot, he must maintain the proper style. After all, his boss was the world's number one assassin.
Even to the airport, Houzi didn't degrade himself by taking the airport bus or taking a taxi. Instead, he booked a luxury car.
Ding dong.
Xiao Zheng's phone rang, but Houzi, who was holding it firmly in his hand, opened the voice message.
It was from Siyan.
Ever since Xiao Zheng successfully ascended to the top, the four-eyed man had been sharing the latest news. Xiao Zheng wasn't very interested in this, but Houzi, as if he had found a treasure, kept listening to the messages from Siyan.
"Boss! Since you reached the top, nearly a hundred bounties have been issued all over the country. The lowest is five million US dollars, and the highest has exceeded 50 million. Do you want me to take a few big deals? This is much more cost-effective than us staying in Yanjing to expand the territory for sister-in-law. "
Siyan's voice was very excited. He was obviously stimulated by Xiao Zheng's rapid popularity. The four-eyed man really wanted to accept all of the big deals that had come knocking on his door.
"Boss. Siyan is crazy. " After listening to the message from Siyan, Houzi lit a cigarette, held a glass of red wine, and said with a smile. "He wants to order you around like a cow and desperately make money for him."
"Tell him to stay put. Don't daydream all day long." Xiao Zheng lit a cigarette and said slowly. "I'm now the vice-captain of Xin Ao's security department. I'm responsible for the company's security. How can I have the time to fly around the world?"
"En." Houzi nodded and didn't say much.
Of course, he knew that Xiao Zheng, who had already retired, would not casually accept a mission. Especially when he suddenly rose from tenth place to first place, reaching the top of the list. As the saying goes, when a person is famous, there will be a lot of trouble. Who knows how many people will be thinking about them. Moreover, the two of them had already completed the mission of assassinating Jones. It was best for Xiao Zheng to keep a low profile to avoid unnecessary trouble.
Ding dong.
After a while, Siyan sent a few more voice messages. This annoyed Xiao Zheng greatly. However, when Houzi opened it, he realized that it wasn't a quest that Xiao Zheng disliked. But …
"Boss. I just received a few messages. They're not doing business, but provoking you — "
"At the moment, I can't analyze the identity of the other party. But judging from the current situation, it should be the assassin that you suppressed and wants to challenge you."
"Right. There's another surprising news. "
After a while, Siyan sent the last voice message.
"Boss. I just received a message. Fox Hunting wants to hire you at a high price. Your position is the leader of Fox Hunting's European Union of Assassins. In addition to a fixed salary, you can take a cut of the reward of every assassin under your command. In this way, if you agree to Fox Hunting, you can make a net profit of 50 million dollars a year. And this is the reward for doing nothing. "
After listening to this message, Houzi clicked his tongue and said in amazement, "Fox Hunting's reaction is really fast. It's only been a little more than an hour and they already received the message. No wonder they can become the largest terrorist organization in the world. They really have the ability to execute. "
Xiao Zheng puffed out a mouthful of smoke and frowned. "They're already in the mood to recruit me as soon as Jones is dead? Looks like Jones's death isn't a big deal to the Fox Hunting Association. "
"It's also possible that he wants to use Boss's strength to find the murderer." Monkey grinned. "If that's the case, then they're wrong."
Xiao Zheng shook his head and said, "Tell Siyan to reject Fox Hunting."
"Understood." After telling Siyan everything, Houzi returned the phone to Xiao Zheng and asked while rubbing his palms. "Boss, are we really not going to go to other places and go straight back to China?"
Xiao Zheng glared at Houzi and said indifferently, "Ma Choi Jun said that if you dare to take the opportunity to play, he will fire you."
"Pfft!" Houzi said angrily. "Why would he fire me? Isn't it just a branch CEO? I'm appointed by sister-in-law! Even if he wants to fire me, it has to be sister-in-law. "
Xiao Zheng shook his head and asked earnestly, "Do you really think it's easy to make money as an assassin?"
Being asked by Xiao Zheng, Houzi looked like he was in a dilemma. "Of course not." He paused for a while and lit a cigarette. "Which of our missions didn't involve us putting our lives on the line? It's fine if we succeed, but if we fail, it's a dead end. "
"Then why are you still so passionate about it?" Xiao Zheng asked back.
"Money comes fast. Freedom. "Houzi grinned.
"That's right. It's tiring working in Yan Jin. But have you ever thought that once we get on the right track, we can just lie down and count money? Isn't that more comfortable and free than being an assassin? Besides, can we tell others what we've done in the past? "Xiao Zheng asked patiently. "Houzi. I'll be honest with you. I'm tired of being an assassin. The reason why I did it was to make some quick money. From the beginning, I didn't plan to do it for a long time. Now, you're all on the right track, and I have my own life. If it's not necessary, I won't take any more missions. I also hope you know your place and live a meaningful life. Of course, if you want to go back to your old job, I'll definitely support you. "
Houzi listened to Xiao Zheng's narration, and his expression changed slightly. He said, "Boss, I actually understand what you're saying, and I know it's for our own good. But I'm just an illiterate trash with no work experience. It's fine if you want me to do odd jobs, but if you really want me to be an executive in the company. I'm afraid I can't take up the heavy responsibility. "
"Who's a natural leader? Who didn't walk step by step? "Xiao Zheng said with a straight face. "As long as you're willing to learn and work, you can even play with the latest high-tech weapons. Are you afraid that you can't manage a few people? Can't you handle a few projects? "
Houzi grinned and said, "Boss, you're right. I'll definitely work hard."
"I'll also tutor Mega Gun Siyan and the others. Let them work hard. Don't look like you're not satisfied all day long and want to go out and kill people and set things on fire at any moment. When the company becomes bigger and stronger, you'll all be billionaires. "Xiao Zheng lit a cigarette and said calmly. "Which billionaire would go and kill people by himself these days? The nouveau riche all know to hire a few assassins to do shady business. Besides, you're not poor to begin with. "
Houzi raised his hand and promised, "Listen to Boss, work hard, and make progress every day."
"Moral." Xiao Zheng laughed and scolded. His eyes were full of gratification.
