He quickly raised an index finger, afraid Li Yan would lack interest, and conceded, "Of course, you’re a master at this, and there’s no need to use a sledgehamr to crack a nut for such trash. You can let one of your subordinates handle it, as long as the outco is the sa."
"One hundred million International Coins?" Li Yan actually showed a bit of interest. As he said, if he doesn’t do it himself, he can arrange for soone else to handle it. Business is business, and if he can help a friend, all the better.
Li Yan’s words left Zheng Tian speechless, thinking to himself, one hundred million International Coins? Do you think I run a bank?
He initially intended to offer ten million International Coins, which was already quite a bit, but if he couldn’t eradicate the problem, he’d have to continue spending on comprehensive protection for Nian Yufei. But Li Yan understood it as one hundred million International Coins, and with no sign of shock, instead, he seed to consider it quite normal, making him feel that the young man in front of him was definitely a top assassin! Possibly even regularly handling business deals worth a hundred million International Coins! This only increased his confidence in Li Yan.
"Li Yan, my young friend, I can co up with one hundred million International Coins, but it’s not a small amount for . My private cash savings aren’t that large, and suddenly pulling one hundred million International Coins out of other businesses or investnts would have a significant impact. It might cause my business partners and clients to mistakenly think I’m going bankrupt, affecting my relationships, and others might seize the opportunity to steal my business, which could cause considerable disruption. How about I pay you one hundred million Cloud Island Coins first? A hundred million Yun Country Coins is also fine."
In these tis when everyone is tightening their hold on International Coins, Yun Country Coins are valued slightly less than Cloud Island Coins, but with Yun Country Coins being forced to appreciate by Si Country continuously, they’ve already outpaced Cloud Island Coins. One hundred million Yun Country Coins are worth significantly more than one hundred million Cloud Island Coins.
Zheng Tian made every effort to show his utmost sincerity by offering a deposit of one hundred million Cloud Island Coins or Yun Country Coins, which was already a considerable business deal, with the rest to be paid off slowly later.
Li Yan, seeing his big talk, tentatively inquired about the price. Although S-class assassins take on decent-paying jobs, it’s not exaggerated to say that any task is worth one hundred million International Coins.
Seeing Zheng Tian gritting his teeth in agreent, Li Yan understood that this money was a rather painful matter for him. And not only business partners and clients, but it might even give his son and wife other ideas, creating more dostic troubles after solving one problem.
"In fact, not that much money is needed. They’re not worth such a high price; it’s just that wiping out fellow assassins might make people wary and see you as a public enemy or exclude you from the circle. But if you take the job privately and quietly, it’s just that simple." Li Yan casually said, calming his emotions, "You and Old Man Mu guessed my true identity and didn’t blurt it out, right?"
"Of course! It’s just the two of us who know, even Yu Cheng and Fei’Er don’t know!" Zheng Tian quickly assured, apologetically adding, "If he had known your identity, he wouldn’t have dared to be arrogant when inviting you over earlier."
"And Fei’Er’s maternal family doesn’t know?"
"They don’t know! We understand the importance of the matter, so we don’t talk carelessly."
Li Yan gave him a cold glance. "You could analyze the situation that day; don’t you think they could analyze it too? You could notice Nian Yufei was special to ; wouldn’t they? You could piece things together, and you assu they can’t?"
Zheng Tian broke out in a cold sweat, initially wanting to secure a powerful ally, but it ended up displeasing him.
"What you said makes sense. But there’s one point you might not know: Ah Yu has already been kicked out of the family. Only her parents might still care for her, for this granddaughter, while other siblings and relatives might just feel a little regret upon hearing her death announcent. It’s been seven or eight years, and even they just care about Fei’Er for preventing her from coming back to split the inheritance, not caring about how she survived back then. So rest assured, even if my father-in-law and mother-in-law find out, they would only feel relieved. With their status, they wouldn’t dare speak carelessly. If you’re willing, I can also have Old Mu secretly inform them so that they can rest easy and maintain confidentiality." Zheng Tian quickly explained and promised.
While they do have influence and Nian Yufei’s grandfather’s family does have financial power, the danger is still present. If they make a super assassin suspicious and provoke retaliation, they don’t know how many family cores might perish!
Li Yan closed his eyes in thought for a mont, then nodded. "Alright, I’ll trust you for now. Anyway, if my identity gets exposed, I’ll just pick another place, another identity to continue. For you guys... heh!"
"It absolutely won’t happen! At most, a few of us old ones would know. And we are all Fei’Er’s elders, hoping for the best for her. She is so attached to you, and we would only use our own resources to create reasonable smoke and mirrors to prevent others from making associations!" Zheng Tian almost swore an oath.
"Hmm, if you can achieve that, it shows you’re sincere, so perhaps you genuinely want to befriend . I’ll take fifty percent off out of good faith!"
Zheng Tian, who was just in a cold sweat, was overjoyed upon hearing Li Yan’s belief in his words and the fifty percent discount, which ant waiving several hundred million Cloud Island Coins of tail-end compensation!
He quickly expressed his gratitude, "Thank you so much! We sincerely wish to befriend you with genuine intent."
