PFC Chapter 210 Bargaining
Chapter 210 Bargaining
Seeing that his soldiers were too afraid of death, Captain Niu wondered if he should give some money to them to boost their morale.
"Share the money! I provide them with food, clothes, and five dollars a month as military salary for these bastards. I've treated them well enough! Now you want a share of my money? No way!" Captain Lin flatly rejected Captain Niu's proposal.
In his opinion, since the soldiers under his command received their salaries, they should work hard for him. He never thought that the original salary of ten dollars would only be left with five dollars.
"Look at you! You don't even know how to count. If you give some to your brothers, they will work harder. This is what we call "you can't catch a wolf without sacrificing a lamb". Everyone knows that you have to put bait when fishing. If you are unwilling to spend a little money, how can you let your brothers help us earn more?" Captain Niu said patiently, although he also felt bad about sharing money with the soldiers.
"Then tell me, how much should we give them?" Captain Lin asked reluctantly.
"I think, if we give twenty for each one we kill, we can still have eighty left. What do you think?" Captain Niu asked tentatively.
"No, no! Do you know how much food you can buy with twenty dollars on the market? Twenty more! They are not worth the price even if you sell them!" When Captain Lin heard that he had to give twenty dollars, he shouted unhappily.
"Then tell me, how much should we give?" Captain Niu was also angry. This Lin guy was too stingy. He was really a miser and would not give a penny. Why couldn't he make sense with him?
"Five dollars!" Captain Lin stiffened his neck and spit out a number!
"Fuck you! You made them work so hard and you only give them five dollars! If it were you, would you be willing to give it? At least fifteen dollars!" Captain Niu looked speechlessly at Captain Lin, who was holding his neck high like a rooster in front of him. He really wanted to kick this idiot.
"I get five dollars for killing one, ten dollars for killing two, and fifty dollars for killing ten. This is a profitable business! When I was a gangster, I couldn't even make fifty dollars a month!" Captain Lin spoke calmly about his past as a gangster.
"Mr. Lin, I can't make it through with you. You want to give me five dollars, right? Fine! I won't argue with you. Anyway, I have to give my men at least ten dollars.
Whether you are willing or not is your business. Don't blame me for not reminding you. If you don't give out 10 yuan like me, don't blame me if your men mutinied! "Captain Niu was speechless about this stingy man in front of him. He could only threaten him.
“You!...” Captain Lin saw that Captain Niu seemed to be turning against him, and just as he was about to say something, he held back his words and said, “Okay, ten dollars is ten dollars!”
The officer who came to report on the situation found it funny to see the two regiment commanders bargaining like they were buying vegetables in the market, but he also felt sorry for the soldiers fighting outside. You are fighting hard outside, but the two regiment commanders almost quarreled over a few dollars to save their lives. . . .
Fortunately, I gave some gifts and became a small officer, so I didn't have to fight on the front line. Otherwise, I would have died at the hands of these two scumbag commanders sooner or later.
Seeing that the two regiment commanders had finally come to a conclusion on how much money to give to the soldiers, he stepped forward and whispered, "Two regiment commanders, the military police seem to be missing. As soon as we started fighting, the military police disappeared. Do you want to send someone to ask?"
"What are you asking? Are you going to expose the shortcomings of the military police? Do you want to kill me?
Didn’t you see that two members of the gendarmerie were just approached and were shot dead by the other side?
The military police are timid. When they saw us fighting, they temporarily retreated. But you still want me to go over and ask, you are asking for trouble!" Commander Lin was just feeling bad about giving money to his soldiers. When he heard what his men said, he was so angry that he couldn't hold back and started to curse.
Captain Niu thought for a while, and nodded in agreement with Captain Lin: “I think the military police are also timid, so they retreated first.
The Japanese have always liked to let us go first when there is something dangerous going on. "
“But, two captains, I just feel that something seems to be wrong.
Are we attacking the Togo troops now?
Also, why did they shoot at us as soon as they appeared? I seemed to see that they didn't even get out of the car. Is there something wrong here? "The officer expressed his thoughts carefully.
It turned out that the security corps and the 16th Regiment's convoy were attacked at the same time, and the people who did it were the Anti-Japanese United Army led by Duan Dashan.
"Are you bored? If it weren't for the Togo troops, the military police would have come to inform us to cease fire long ago. Even if the military police didn't come, Major Harada's men would have come long ago!
I think you are just bored and have nothing to do. Do you think you don’t have the chance to go to the front and kill people to make money, so you want to make it impossible for me to make money! If you want, I will let you go now! "
Captain Lin cursed again. Even though this officer belonged to his security corps and had given him many gifts, this was related to making money, and he would not allow others to say anything here.
"Uh, no no no, Captain, that's not what I meant! I just..."
"Get lost! If you don't mean it, stop talking and don't delay me from making money. Hurry up and inform those bastards. I'll reward you ten bucks for every one you kill! If I see them crouching and not daring to stand up again, I'll kill them!"
"Yes, yes, I'll go and notify them right away!" Facing his commander who was obviously in a bad mood, the officer didn't dare to say anything more. He quickly agreed and went to notify them.
After everyone left, Captain Niu said slowly: "Brother Lin, I think what your subordinate said makes some sense. Let's not make a mistake. If the troops in front are not the Dongxiang troops, it will be bad."
When Captain Lin heard this, he glanced at it and said nonchalantly, "How could we be wrong? The Second Division is the elite of the Imperial Army, a Type A division.
I've seen it before. Some of the Japanese we were dealing with couldn't even stand steadily when they fired their guns, and their hands were shaking.
He is obviously very nervous. How can such a person be from the Type A Division?"
"Oh my! Brother Lin, I didn't expect you to be so brave. You dare to go up and check! Aren't you afraid of being shot in the head?
But you are also careful sometimes, and you observe carefully. In this case, I am relieved. "Captain Niu smiled and praised, then waved to his men and asked them to go down and inform the soldiers about the bounty.
It was because Captain Lin thought he had observed the truth that the security team missed an opportunity to discover their mistake.
And what Captain Lin saw was true, that many soldiers from the 16th Regiment could not even stand steadily, but that was not because they were nervous, but because they were sick. . .
