"As for the money you mentioned, give me a specific figure," Colonel Keno said.
"One million." Jiang Fei casually gave a number. It was not a lot, but it was enough for his daily expenses.
"So little? Are you sure? "Keno was stunned. He thought that Jiang Fei would ask for an exorbitant amount.
"As long as it's enough. Why would I need so much money?" Jiang Fei shrugged.
"You don't look like someone from the slums." Colonel Keno looked at Jiang Fei and said.
"Oh? Are people from the slums supposed to be greedy? "Jiang Fei asked.
"From what I know, yes!" Colonel Keno said bluntly.
"Maybe!" Jiang Fei smiled.
After the poor became rich, they would indeed have a kind of "I finally have this day". Those who had never eaten before would eat as much as they could, and those who could not afford to buy anything would buy it as much as they could. When it came time to make money, because they had been poor before, in order to avoid being poor again, they would make money like crazy.
This was the same in Jiang Fei's three-dimensional universe, especially for those high-ranking officials who came from poor families. There were very few of them who were not greedy or corrupt. The more such people were, the more corrupt they would be. Even if they could hold on at the beginning, when their poor relatives came looking for them, they would always say, "I lent you money to pay for your school fees. I lent you money to pay for your travel expenses. Without me, would you be where you are today?" "Now that you are rich, you are ungrateful."
No matter how strong-willed a person was, he was still human. When faced with such requests from relatives, sooner or later, he would relent. Once he opened his mouth, it would be difficult to close it again. As time passed, the mouth would become bigger and bigger. In the end, he would dare to do anything.
Jiang Fei had seen this kind of thing too many times. Of course, not all high-ranking officials from poor families were bad people. There were people who could hold on to their hearts, but there were too few of them.
Therefore, he could understand why Colonel Keno looked at Jiang Fei with such a gaze.
"If you are sure, then it's settled!" Colonel Keno looked at Jiang Fei for a long time. After making sure that Jiang Fei did not have any plans to pay attention to, he said so.
"Okay!" Jiang Fei continued to eat at a leisurely pace, as if the breakfast was more attractive than the money.
"You are indeed different from ordinary people." Colonel Keno said.
"Hehe, who isn't? The people who look exactly the same are all around the sheriff, "Jiang Fei said with a smile. The people who look exactly the same are naturally the clones.
Although the clones looked different, their personalities and thought patterns were carved from the same mold. Therefore, they could be considered to be exactly the same.
"Haha, you're quite humorous," Keno laughed heartily.
Very soon, breakfast was over. Jiang Fei and Colonel Keno had also come to an agreement.
"Chinook, take Mr. Ralph to choose a house." Colonel Keno said to Chynock. After the negotiation, Jiang Fei's identity as a soldier was revealed. Naturally, he had changed from a Major to a Mister.
Because Jiang Fei was temporarily conscripted into the army under special circumstances, and Keno and the others did not expect him to survive, Jiang Fei's identity was not even registered in the army. Therefore, Jiang Fei could be removed from the army with just a word from Colonel Keno.
"Yes! Sir! "Chynock saluted Keno.
"Mr. Ralph, your money will be transferred to your account later. You can check it when the time comes. As for work, you can go to work tomorrow," Colonel Keno said to Jiang Fei. "Mr. Ralph, the money will be transferred to your account later.
"Thank you!" Jiang Fei nodded.
"Mr. Ralph, let's go." Chynock had also changed the way he addressed Jiang Fei.
"Okay!" Jiang Fei followed Chynock out of the cafeteria. Then, Chynock drove Jiang Fei to Crystal Street in the city center.
"Have you calculated the number of controlled houses here?" Chynock brought Jiang Fei to a temporary office. There, some military police were calculating the damage caused by the war. Although the sheriff's troops had not been completely wiped out, they had been completely driven out of the city. So, peace had been restored in the city, and the workers had also begun to reorganize after the war.
"Yes, a total of twelve houses have lost their owners. They are now public property," one of the military police who was in charge of the statistics said.
"Is there a map?" Chynock asked. He was a trusted follower of Colonel Keno, so the military police naturally gave him face.
"Yes!" One of the military police brought a street map. There were more than ten houses marked on it.
"Mr. Ralph, please choose one." Chynock said to Jiang Fei.
"This one!" Jiang Fei chose the house closest to Natasha's house. It was only two streets away from Natasha's house. It would take less than two minutes to walk there.
"Okay! This house is now Mr. Ralph's. "Chynock nodded at the military police. The military police immediately completed the procedures for Jiang Fei.
The process was very simple. All they had to do was scan the ID code on Jiang Fei's wrist. In the Gamma Dimension, without this ID code, it was practically impossible to move a single step. Even the bank account that Colonel Keno said that he would transfer money to Jiang Fei was actually linked to this ID code. With this ID code, Jiang Fei would be able to withdraw money.
"Thank Colonel Keno for me." Jiang Fei said to Chynock with a smile.
"I will pass on the message." Chynock nodded.
"So, I have nothing to do with it now?" Jiang Fei asked.
"If you want to go home now, of course, there is no problem. However, as the house needs to be repaired, I personally suggest that you stay in a hotel for a while. Colonel Keno said that while you stay in the hotel, he will pay for all expenses, including food and accommodation." Chynock said.
"How long will it take to repair this house?" Jiang Fei asked.
"…" Chynock did not say anything. Instead, he looked at the military police who was in charge of the statistics.
"About two months. If you are in a hurry, we can arrange an express route for you. The repair can be completed in three days." The military police replied.
"Three days it is then." Chynock said before Jiang Fei could say anything.
"Yes! Sir! "The military police nodded.
"Mr. Ralph, in that case, you can stay in the hotel for three days. I can help you find a good hotel near the Life Building." Chynock said.
"Then I'll be troubling you!" Jiang Fei did not refuse. He followed Chynock to the Life Building. This was definitely the core area of the Gamma Dimension. It was said that every inch of land was worth its weight in gold. The hotels here were not cheap, but all the expenses were paid by Keno. Naturally, Jiang Fei did not need to be polite.
