Chapter 86: Chapter 86 We Need a Manager

Mi Lu shrugged his shoulders and said, "Blood Fox says you’re a natural killer and also have dual master’s degrees, having worked as an executive in a Fortune 500 company...

Kid, we’re not bad ourselves, if you agree, you’ll be managing nearly 8 million US dollars a year..."

Mountain Eagle massaged his throbbing temples and looked at Mi Lu, who clearly had not told him everything, and said, "I need all the information before I can consider it and get back to you...

Until then, I’d rather be running errands!"

Saying so, Mountain Eagle looked at the somewhat disappointed Mi Lu and asked, "If I may be so bold, do you guys get paid for this work?"

Mi Lu pushed the somewhat antiquated Garand M1 Rifle forward and said, "I need this to win the competition this afternoon so I can solve next month’s drinking problem...

What do you think?"

After saying that, Mi Lu glanced at the handgun on Mountain Eagle’s waist and said, "Blood Fox said you’re a great shot. Are you interested in the pistol competition this afternoon?

Win and there’s a 500 US dollar prize..."

Mountain Eagle looked at Mi Lu, who was urging him to compete for the 500-dollar prize, and his image of this old man and Blood Fox crumbled in his mind...

Firmly declining Mi Lu’s invitation, Mountain Eagle massaged his temples again and said, "I want some quiet, you go make your own drink money..."

Mountain Eagle then curiously asked, "Marta told me you can get cheap bullets; doesn’t that make money?"

Mi Lu frowned and looked at Mountain Eagle, saying, "What are you talking about?

I can smuggle bullets through Arctic Fox’s channels, but that’s with the Thai Coast Guard being informed.

I can use them at the range and invite others to shoot, but I can’t sell them!

My expenses here are high; the Old Gun Club stays in business precisely because of these cheap bullets..."

Mountain Eagle understood what ’informing’ the police in Thailand meant...

He was now truly impressed by how Blood Fox and Mi Lu had recently earned 1.2 million dollars through Daqili yet seemed to have no intention of keeping it for themselves, instead living frugally.

Maybe this was what they wanted, the life values they willingly embraced!

But this was not what Mountain Eagle wanted...

If Blood Fox wanted him to run errands, then he’d run errands. If Blood Fox had any money-making tasks to pull him into, he’d take on the task...

But taking over a mess was out of the question!

Mountain Eagle was a person who pursued initiative in everything. Without control and a suitable profit model in sight, he couldn’t take on a project destined to fail because it would certainly be done poorly.

Mi Lu saw through Mountain Eagle’s thoughts, but he wasn’t disappointed; instead, he felt Blood Fox hadn’t made the wrong choice...

These old-timers were very good at judging people; they chose Mountain Eagle not for his combat skills, but for his character and capabilities.

Mountain Eagle, with a vibe of elite sophistication about him, had a tangible chivalrous spirit—Blood Fox was certain that he was the best choice to manage Arctic Fox’s retirement fund!

Mountain Eagle was somewhat cold in his reaction, but that wasn’t a problem for them because they had plenty of time to wait, and even if it all came to nothing, they wouldn’t actually lose anything.

Seeing Mountain Eagle looking somewhat apologetic, Mi Lu smiled and waved his hand, saying, "We’re not in a hurry, and we can’t force you to manage so much money.

You just got here, so take a look around. This place is just a temporary spot for you to land. Tonight Blood Fox will come, and he will help arrange your lodging..."

Mountain Eagle listened and shook his head, saying, "No need for that trouble, there’s someone in Bangkok who has given me a piece of land. I’m thinking of taking a look tomorrow, and if possible, I want to build my own house there..."

Mi Lu was momentarily stunned and then chuckled, shaking his head, "Then just do as you please, you handle it!"

Speaking, Mi Lu pointed towards the direction of the gate and said, "You can go, I still have some things to do..."

Mountain Eagle looked at the Old Garland rifle in front of Mi Lu, chuckled and shook his head as he turned around and slid open the door to the firearms maintenance room...

The moment the door was opened, Mountain Eagle saw Marta standing outside...

This girl was obviously eavesdropping. Confronted by Mountain Eagle’s gaze, she awkwardly shifted her eyes away and fumbled around on herself and muttered to herself, "Where did I put it? Where’s my phone?"

Mountain Eagle said with amusement, "Keep looking, often what you’re looking for is right by your side..."

Marta watched as Mountain Eagle walked away and then bit her lip and chased after him with a quick jog, asking, "Where are you planning to go?"

Mountain Eagle walked into the shooting range’s lobby and saw many ladies gathered in the only air-conditioned area chatting away, while the men were all at the range...

He said with a smile, "I’m not particularly interested in shooting. I want to go check out the Tourism Police Volunteer office at Ao Nan Beach and visit my property there as well..."

Upon hearing this, Marta raised her hand and said, "I’ll take you. I’m very familiar with the area!"

Mountain Eagle shook his head and said, "Didn’t you say you had a competition this afternoon? I can go by myself..."

Just as Mountain Eagle waved his hand and walked to the door, a scream suddenly came from the corner of the parking lot, followed by a man running out with his pants in hand, chased by a dirty Big Dog...

The man sprinted to the lobby door, and as the Big Dog lunged to bite him, this sneaky guy started circling around Mountain Eagle and Marta, trying to use them to attract the Big Dog’s attention.

However, the dog, mad as it appeared, was incredibly persistent, relentlessly pursuing the man and allowing Mountain Eagle to relax his left hand that was on the pistol.

"Kill it, kill it..."

As the man circled to avoid, and noticing Mountain Eagle seemed indifferent, he reached for Mountain Eagle’s pistol after the Big Dog bit his calf...

Mountain Eagle pressed his left hand on the holster and stepped sideways, lifting his knee intending to strike the man...

But before he could land the blow, a foot hooked the man’s feet from underneath, causing him to lose his balance and fall to the ground, with the Big Dog clamping down on his wrist.

As the man screamed in pain, a woman rushed over, brandishing her high heels and shouting as she circled the scene...

"Help him, help him..."

Mountain Eagle didn’t understand what the woman was saying, but he got the general idea...

As he reached for his pistol to fire a warning shot into the air to scare away the Big Dog, the ferocious animal suddenly let go of the man, cocked its ears to listen and then dashed off in the direction from which the couple had come...

And just as the woman helped the injured man up, the man who had been screaming in agony suddenly swung his hand at Marta, who had tripped him, cursing with foul language...

Mountain Eagle raised his hand intending to intercept the man, but Marta was quicker...

She lunged forward a step, ducked to avoid the man’s swing, thrust her right leg between the man’s legs, grabbed his right arm and shoulder and pushed upward forcefully, followed by a clean judo throw over the shoulder.

The lethality of a shoulder throw is not the soft portrayal seen in the movies...

With a loud "bang"...

The man was slammed onto the floor of the lobby, let out a pained groan, and lay there straight as a board, clutching his waist and not daring to move an inch.

The commotion at the entrance attracted a lot of onlookers. Marta seemed indifferent to the fuss she had caused. Just as she furrowed her brows fiercely and was about to say something, her hair was grabbed by the woman from before...

Just as Marta was about to flip the woman over while holding onto the hand that was pulling her hair, a middle-aged man wearing a green shirt and green hat rushed over and slapped the woman across the face...
