Chapter 167 – 37. Trade Secrets. (3)
A week went by in the blink of an eye.
Even if you are treated as a VIP at the Duke Castle and live luxuriously, in the end it is someone else’s house. It was inevitable that the bed would become more and more uncomfortable with each passing day, and that the meal would be eaten without notice. … No matter what I do, in the end, my house is the best.
Anyway, as the day of departure approached, Carly Hill Danju came to meet Allen Danju in person and said goodbye with a warm handshake.
“I wish there were more people like you in the South.”
“The Lord Kalihill is here, so what’s there to worry about?”
Allen considered it her duty to give a pleasant sound to the man who had given her a thousand gold coins. She furthermore she also knows that she might be a good business partner in the future.
Hogu King of the South even took care of expensive gifts. Clearly, the expensive water bottle was worth at least two or three hundred gold coins.
“I have nothing in return, so what shall I do with this?”
“I have already received enough in return. It’s just a pity that I can’t give you more.”
Of course, you can give as much as you like—- the thought did not come out of her mouth.
“It’s okay. That’s enough. The heart matters!”
Carly Hill smiled even more at Allen’s words. …… Unintentionally becoming a righteous mercenary who knows honor more than money. Still, if this side was more profitable, Allen was confident in doing such a performance.
Anyway, the Allen-Mercenary Corps finally put an end to their long mission and left the large city of Kronsold early in the morning.
“Southern maidens are more innocent than I thought—.”
The furry Geese muttered to himself as if passing by as he watched the large city receding.
It is true that the temperament of the South itself is not so harsh and there is a naive corner. … Of course, there are occasional variants like Allen, the money ghost.
Geese’s theory of virginity in the south soon developed into women’s rankings in various regions. Her southern virgins proudly rank second there. Of course, the first place is the Western girl with overwhelming beauty and sexiness, and the fierce northern girl comes last. …… Honestly, I don’t know about the other rankings, but Allen agreed with the first place.
“In time to think about that, uh, practice more! … Cory, you’re a bastard too. If you hang out with this guy, you become the same guy!”
Natasha, the gum milk tester, seemed to be a little upset that the middle girl had barely escaped last place, so she raised her voice as she slid the scraps that had written her leaderboard up and down her. Of course, the furry only giggles.
“Anyway, these guys only have dirty things on their heads.”
…… Said Natasha, that night, she secretly tasted Allen’s cock.
She sucked Allen’s friend’s cock with a light smile, and swallowed every drop of her semen.
……… I don’t know if it’s right to grow like this……….

The Allen-Mercenaries passed through several cities in the South, passed the edge of the East, and then through the canyon.
And after entering the familiar Iron Fortress, they felt a little at ease thinking that they had finally arrived in the middle.
In the iron fortress, rumors about the demon war in the south have already been spread by the merchants. In particular, the activities of the Carlyhill-Mercenary Corps and the Allen-Mercenary Corps went up and down without a break in the mouths of chatty people.
As the name of Allen-Mercenary did not fall out in every big event that happened on the continent, people argued over whether Allen-Mercenary had come to the level of supporting the top 10 now.
The fact that such an argument takes place proves how high the status of Allen-Mercenaries has risen. In fact, the mercenary corps of Vermandois, secretly, were already treating Allen-Mercenary Corps as a mid-sized mercenary corps. The Allen-Mercenary Corps seen from the perspective of a third party who only listens to rumors and the Allen-Mercenary Corps seen from the perspective of the mercenaries who carry out such missions are definitely different.
Even if the rumors were inflated, what the Allen-Mercenaries had done was literally staggering. …… To the point where I wondered if I could really go all the way to the top 10 like this.
And as such rumors spread, the satisfaction of the members toward the mercenaries also increased.
Of course, money is money, but belonging is also not a factor to be ignored. Looking at the transfer rate of the 10th round right away, it was clear that there were very few mercenaries who wanted to transfer as long as the employment cost above the standard was guaranteed. To the mercenaries, the weight of the name value of the 10 rivers is that much.
… In fact, that sense of belonging was not very positive in the early days when there were many transfer situations, but now the situation has changed a bit for Allen-Mercenary Corps. The bigger you get, the more tempting it is to target talented members, but that means that if you don’t have a sense of belonging there, you’re more likely to succumb to temptation.
From that point of view, an increase in satisfaction means a decrease in the possibility of leaving. With the size of the mercenaries growing, it was now a positive phenomenon.
Anyway, after a brief break at the Iron Fortress, the Allen-Mercenary Corps headed back to Vermandois, finally arrived at my hideout after 15 days.
“Cybeol, is there a separate heaven? This is paradise!”
Even the blind saintess, who only sought the Holy Ghost when needed, did not deny Geese’s words.
Allen first announced that he had returned to Danju Viola, and then began to pay for the expenses by giving the crew members four months of overdue salaries. The cost alone was about 1,300 gold coins.
Fortunately, there was no small amount of steady income coming in. More than three hundred gold coins come in every month from the two inn buildings alone, and the value of the name lent to Viola-Mercenaries is between four hundred and five hundred gold coins, and the regular donations from Alloa the Prophet add up to more than a thousand gold coins a month. This little bit piled up.
Of course, if you subtract the cost of operating the mercenary corps and the cost of hiring, half of it falls off, but even so, it’s a bit of a breather.
In particular, Allen could clearly feel the improvement in the quality of the mercenaries who wished to join the mercenary corps.
The rise in the status of the mercenary group, the advancement of the hideout, the increase in employment costs, and the close relationship with the top 10 must be the main reasons.
In addition, newcomers also received a rain of applications to join. It had a big impact on the success of the new Cory.
Cory, a mercenary who quickly became the core of the Allen-Mercenary Corps from an insignificant mercenary! …… Of course, the point was an exaggeration, but it would be enough to stimulate newbies.
Thanks to that, Allen let out a happy scream for the first time in a while. When I lived in a shabby hideout, only lousy people came, and I never thought they would change this much just by changing the house.
Of course, Danju was a caution to believe in seeing with your own eyes, so her employment cost was slashed as much as possible. After the amount is verified, you can raise it again by renewing the contract.
Thus, as many as three new recruits entered the Allen-Mercenary Corps, which had not been recruited for a long time.
First, Borgio Kamen, a bear from the East.
[Strength: 49] [Agility: 33] [Stamina: 50] [Intelligence: 9] [Magic power: 12]
[Brightness] [Recklessness] [Flash] [Willness] [Greed] [Abilityism] [Super sensitive] [Insomnia] [Premature ejaculation]
Borzo, a porcupine with a lot of porcupine marks on his face, had a pretty colorful career. He honestly revealed that he was a career-oriented person, so he transferred to go higher. Of course, Allen rather prefers such a person, so he was willing to sign. Instead, he minted 10 gold coins from his desired amount, and settled for 40.
Then, the hooky nose from the Middle East, Misty Winster.
[Strength: 37] [Agility: 46] [Stamina: 48] [Intelligence: 14] [Magic power: 18]
[Brilliant] [Speedy] [Narcissistic] [Sexy] [Marksman] [Curiosity] [Greed] [Sensitive] [Sensitive] [Insomnia]
This woman, who looks like a hawk, was more of a role of disrupting her rear with agile movements than a role of striking her head on. So she used a gladius-type shortsword that moved smoothly and was rather short in length.
Her career seems to be smaller than that of Gombo, but it’s not bad compared to her mid-20s age. In fact, as a mercenary, it was already complete.
Hiring costs 34 gold coins per month. Of course, she seemed to care less about the amount of money, perhaps because her future was still bright, and she needed career first rather than money.
And finally, alopecia areata from the West, Kancho.
[Strength: 31] [Agility: 27] [Stamina: 44] [Intelligence: 10] [Magic power: 9]
[Brilliant] [Innocence] [Willness] [Justice] [Curiosity] [Greed] [Passionate] [Misbehavior] [Sensitiveness] [Sorrow] [Insomnia]
Kancho, who had circular baldness with a hole in the center of his head, was a newbie wearing the mask of a mercenary. Of course, like a beginner, he jumped into the mercenary world with great ambitions.
Still, considering that he is a beginner, the status window is at a fairly compliant level. Once I raised it well, I seemed to be faithful to my role in the first line.
Hiring costs 8 gold coins, 2 less than new Cory. Of course, the alopecia areata, who had never imagined that he would join, signed a contract. Even if it’s free, wouldn’t it be an enormous asset in the future even if you just build up your career in the Allen-Mercenary Corps!
Just like that, three new faces join Allen-Mercenaries.
…… Now is the time to consider expanding your business.
