Chapter 353: Chapter 353 Agree_1

"Annie, things are going smoothly; the first guy is almost done. I’ll be back soon," Qian Haoming said.

"Okay, I’ll wait for you to come back," Annie responded.

"Okay, hanging up now." Qian Haoming hung up the phone and then said to Du Mingliang, "So, are you reassured now?"

"I am," Du Mingliang quickly nodded.

"Since you’re reassured, does that mean you’ve agreed?" Qian Haoming asked.

"Not yet," Du Mingliang shook his head.

"Why not?" Qian Haoming asked.

"One million US dollars isn’t enough; I want five million US dollars," Du Mingliang aimed to raise the price.

"That’s too much," Qian Haoming frowned.

"Big brother, you want me to kill someone, not just beat someone up. Once I leave, I’ll never be able to return to Dragon Country in my entire life. Five million isn’t excessive at all. I’m not skilled in anything, and once I am in Lighthouse Country without any relatives, I’ll need money for everything. I need five million; that’s already a fair price," Du Mingliang said.

He was speaking the truth, and it was what he was worried about.

Having no skills and no relatives or friends in Lighthouse Country, he truly felt that everything would cost money and that asking for five million wasn’t too much.

"No, it’s still too much. It’s not just you involved in this; I have to find another person," Qian Haoming shook his head.

"Why find someone else? I can do it alone. Take him by surprise, take care of him directly, then board the plane you’ve arranged, fly to Lighthouse Country, and everything will be settled. It’s that simple; there’s no need for someone else," replied Du Mingliang, feeling that the job was very easy and there was no need to hire an additional person.

"Shen Dong is very skilled. Can you defeat him?" Qian Haoming glanced at Du Mingliang skeptically.

"I know he’s skilled. It’s not like I haven’t seen him quickly take down two security guards. What I just said was to catch him off guard. No matter how skilled he is, it’s all in vain," Du Mingliang curled his lip, showing a lack of regard for Shen Dong’s abilities in his words.

"Du Mingliang, Shen Dong isn’t as simple as you think. I have my plan, and you will follow my plan. That’s the only way to ensure that nothing goes wrong," Qian Haoming said sternly.

He certainly wasn’t going to let Du Mingliang call the shots.

If he genuinely believed that Du Mingliang alone could handle it, then he wouldn’t be himself.

He also wouldn’t be worthy of Annie’s favor.

"What’s your plan?" Du Mingliang asked, puzzled.

"You’ll know when the time comes," Qian Haoming replied.

"Alright, but one million is still too low. Let’s make it three million," Du Mingliang bargained.

"Three million is still too high. Final offer, two million. Take it or leave it. If you’re not doing it, I’ll change the plan and hire someone else," Qian Haoming was getting a bit irritated by Du Mingliang’s haggling and didn’t want to argue anymore.

"Fine, two million it is," Du Mingliang conceded, seeing Qian Haoming’s annoyance and not pressing further.

Two million was already quite good.

In Lighthouse Country, he should be able to live a decent life.

"By the way, once I’m in Lighthouse Country, could you introduce me to work in the Luoke Family’s business? I just need the most ordinary job," Du Mingliang seemingly asked but was in fact making another demand.

"That shouldn’t be a problem," Qian Haoming nodded.

Such a small thing was still manageable.

Besides, whether it would happen or not, wasn’t it up to him to decide by then?

"Alright, I agree. When will you give me the money?" Du Mingliang asked.

"You’ll get paid after the job is done," Qian Haoming replied.

Now, Du Mingliang was displeased.

"Get paid after the job is done? What if you run away? I need at least half upfront; otherwise, forget it."

To go ahead with the task without seeing the money first would be idiotic.

Moreover, it was the sort of business involving killing.

If he carried out the deed and Qian Haoming took off, there would be nowhere for him to even cry.

"Fine," Qian Haoming could tell, not giving a deposit just wasn’t going to work.

He took out his phone, logged into his mobile bank, asked for Du Mingliang’s bank account number, and transferred a million US dollars to Du Mingliang.

"Very good," Du Mingliang smiled.

It had been a long time since he’d seen that much money.

It was a few years ago when he wanted to buy a sports car and nagged his dad until his dad gave him seven million.

Normally, his dad would never give him that much money.

"Don’t even think about taking the money and running away. If I dare to give you the money, then I surely have ways to make you cough it up if you don’t do the job, unless you don’t want to live," Qian Haoming warned.

"Don’t worry, taking money to do a job is only right. I won’t run away. Besides, I want you to take me to Lighthouse Country to make a fortune," Du Mingliang said with a smile.

At that moment, the private room door was pushed open by the shift manager who came in.

"Du Mingliang, ten minutes are up. The manager sent me to tell you to get back to work."

The shift manager saw a stranger present and had heard from the manager that the person looking for Du Mingliang was somebody important.

He didn’t dare to scold Du Mingliang on such an occasion.

"I’m not going," Du Mingliang shook his head.

With a million US dollars, going back to work would be idiotic.

After the job was done, there would be another million US dollars.

Then he’d be off to Lighthouse Country to live it up, who would go back to work?

"What did you say?" The shift manager could hardly believe his own ears.

"I said I’m not going, I’m quitting, got it? I don’t even want my salary," Du Mingliang stated clearly.

"Du Mingliang, has your family’s company come back from the dead?" the shift manager asked in confusion.

"No, I have some things I need to do and won’t be working as a waiter anymore. You’ll have no chance to trouble me in the future," Du Mingliang said gravely.

"You..." The shift manager wanted to curse but restrained himself upon glancing at Qian Haoming. Instead, he said, "I’ll tell the manager and see if he lets you go."

"It doesn’t matter. I don’t want the salary anyway. I’ll leave if I want," Du Mingliang shrugged nonchalantly.

The shift manager left.

"Mr. Qian, let’s go," Du Mingliang said to Qian Haoming.

"Okay, I’ll take you to meet another person," Qian Haoming stood up to leave, with Du Mingliang following behind.

As they exited the private room, the manager arrived.

"Du Mingliang, you’re leaving?" the manager asked.

"Yes, I’m leaving. Manager, thank you for all your care over this period. I don’t want my salary," Du Mingliang said.

This manager had been quite good to him, unlike that shift manager, who always yelled at him.

"Leaving? Not taking the salary?" the manager was somewhat astonished.

Du Mingliang nodded, didn’t say anything else, and left with Qian Haoming.

Qian Haoming took Du Mingliang to a restaurant, also spent some money for a private room, and didn’t order any dishes.

"My partner works at this restaurant?" Du Mingliang asked.

"Yes," Qian Haoming nodded.

Soon, a young man entered the private room.

"Did you want to see me?" The young man was Dong Junjie.
