I am a cannon fodder, so what's wrong with grabbing an opportunity?

The first thing Xie Zhiqiu did when he returned to the city was to look for Qin Yao.

Just show her the photo stone and ask her to redeem the reward.

Qin Yao looked at the content played on the photo stone in front of her and tried to hold back the twitching of her lips.

Xia Miao did tell her about this, but she didn't expect Zhao Qiu to throw the photo stone directly in her face. This showed how much he didn't trust Xia Miao.

However, due to her professional ethics, she could not show these extra emotions: she told Xie Zhiqiu: "Okay, Brother Zhao, please wait a moment."

Xie Zhiqiu was waiting in the negotiation room. Not long after, Qin Yao came back with Xia Qiao.

Xie Zhiqiu immediately looked at the two of them warily, wondering if Xia Qiao was here to put on an act and deduct her bonus.

So she decided to take the initiative: "Manager Xia, I have completed the task. I can't do anything about the Nightmare Beast's death. Xia Miao asked me to hand over the body to the city guards. You can't use this as an excuse to deduct my bonus."

"If you dare to deduct my bonus, I will let the whole city know tomorrow that you are not trustworthy. Let's see who dares to come to your city affairs office again."

Xia Qiao: ...

Qin Yao: ...

The two looked at each other, and Qin Yao shook her head slightly, indicating that she knew nothing.

Xia Qiao was also convinced. When Xia Miao reported to him that Zhao Qiu was greedy for money, he didn't believe it. But now... he was indeed right.

Xia Qiao walked forward, sat down, and waved to Xie Zhiqiu to sit down.

Qin Yao was very considerate and helped the two of them close the door.

"Xiao Zhao, don't get excited. We will definitely give you what we promised you. How could our City Affairs Office do something like that?"

"That's better." Xie Zhiqiu said with a warning tone.

But in Xia Qiao's eyes, Zhao Qiu is still too young, and everything shows on his face.

But it’s better this way, it’s easier to see through and control.

Xia Qiao then placed the five top-grade spirit stones for this mission on the table.

Xie Zhiqiu's eyes lit up and he reached out to take it, but was stopped by Xia Qiao.

"Manager Xia, what are you trying to do?" Xie Zhiqiu stared at Xia Qiao.

Xia Qiao didn't let go of his hand immediately. "Xiao Zhao, I have another task for you. The bonus is ten times the current amount, and the points are the same."

Xie Zhiqiu's eyes lit up, but he quickly hid them and decisively refused: "No."

"Such a good task, are you sure you don't want it?" Xia Qiao asked again.

Xie Zhiqiu closed his eyes and then opened them again, "No."

"Sixty yuan." Xia Qiao thought the price was not good and raised the price.

"No." Xie Zhiqiu still refused.

"seventy."

"No."

"eighty."

"No." Xie Zhiqiu looked at Xia Qiao as if he was going to give up the offer. How could he let the duck in his mouth fly away?

He asked, "Manager Xia, you have already quoted eighty top-grade spirit stones for this task. What task must I take?"

"Do you really think I can take on a mission worth eighty top-grade spirit stones?"

Xia Qiao: What does it matter how much you offer? As long as you go and never come back, I won't have to pay these spirit stones.

"Of course, this is something that can only be done by you."

"You also know about the nightmare beast. This matter is not that simple. Xia Miao just sent me a message that the three Jindan realm cultivators were also employed by my Ribi City."

"But they chased after the Nightmare Beast, and in the end, the Nightmare Beast died along with them. According to what you said before, they planned for the Nightmare Beast to escape and planned a large-scale massacre. Some forces may be involved behind this."

"Now they dare to hunt down the nightmare beasts we carefully cultivated, and they will destroy our Hibi City one day."

"It's just that the city guards are a mixed bag. I hope you can cooperate with Xia Miao to find out the truth and uncover the traitors in our Hibi City."

Xie Zhiqiu just watched Xia Qiao's performance quietly. What a crazy thing! He asked a Foundation Establishment Realm expert to assist a Golden Core Realm expert in investigating a shocking conspiracy. He really thinks too highly of me.

"Thank you for your kindness, Manager Xia, but you also said that it involves certain forces. I am just a small foundation-building person, aren't you asking me to die?"

Xia Qiao originally wanted to continue giving his passionate speech.

Zhao Qiu's words almost made her angry to death. Did I tell you to go and die?

"Don't worry, Xiao Zhao. Xia Miao will protect you. You just need to investigate. We will be ready to reinforce you at any time."

As he spoke, Xia Qiao took out a talisman that could shrink the earth by a thousand miles. "This is a talisman that could shrink the earth by a thousand miles. If you encounter danger, you can escape at any time."

"That's okay."

Xia Qiao felt that his sincerity was already very good.

Xie Zhiqiu was still hesitant, "Let me think about it."

"Okay, take your time to think about it, don't be in a hurry." In Xia Qiao's eyes, Xie Zhiqiu was already moved, but he was still a little afraid of death.

"If you are not satisfied with the price, we can negotiate it again." Xia Qiao said without hesitation, with a blank check.

Xie Zhiqiu was delighted, but still looked conflicted.

After a long while, he gave a reply, "One hundred top-grade spirit stones, and the same amount of points."

Xia Qiao almost spit out her tea. When asked to give a quote, she really dared to do so.

"Okay, one hundred top-grade spirit stones is one hundred top-grade spirit stones."

Anyway, he had no intention of exchanging it from the beginning. Even if she successfully assisted Xia Miao in finding those people, she would not be able to escape from him.

"Now that the deal has been reached, Manager Xia, please ask Qin Yao to come in and draft a new mission agreement."

"Okay." Xia Qiao pressed a circle on the table.

After a while, Qin Yao knocked on the door and assigned tasks to the two of them.

When Qin Yao heard that the reward for assisting in the investigation was one hundred top-grade spirit stones, she seriously suspected that there was something wrong with her ears.

But neither of them had any objection, and she wouldn't be so tactless.

After drafting it, Qin Yao handed the task agreement to the two people for review and confirmation. If there was no problem, they were ready to enter it into the system.

Xia Qiao: "The mission level is set to the second highest."

When Qin Yao heard about one hundred top-grade spirit stones, she began to guess the level of the task.

Unexpectedly, it turned out to be the second highest. This means that apart from the two parties who drafted the task, no third person would know the specific content of the task.

Including her, the drafter of the tripartite supervision.

"Okay, I still have something to do. Qin Yao, please explain to Xiao Zhao, and I'll leave first."

"Yes, Boss."

Xia Qiao stood up and left.

Qin Yao closed the door of the negotiation room and explained the secondary mission to Zhao Qiu.

"The tasks of our City Affairs Office are divided into five levels, from high to low, they are the highest level of confidentiality tasks, the second highest level of confidentiality tasks, the third level tasks, the fourth level tasks, and the fifth level tasks."

"In the first two levels, except for the manager and executor who issued the task, the content of the task shall not be disclosed to any third party."

"What if it gets leaked?" Xie Zhiqiu asked.

"If the executor is leaked, the manager can issue a hunting order." Qin Yao also made a gesture of scratching the neck.

When Xie Zhiqiu heard that this was a punishment for the executor who leaked secrets, he immediately asked, "What about the manager who leaked secrets? Will he be hunted down as well?"

Qin Yao thought: This little girl is crazy.

He shook his head, "No pursuit."

"What about the punishment?"

"Neither." Qin Yao replied helplessly.

Xie Zhiqiu slammed the table and stood up, "F*ck, this is just an unfair clause, the governor is allowed to set fires but the people are not allowed to light lamps."

Qin Yao advised: "As long as you don't leak the secret, this clause is just a decoration."

"You can't say that. What if a nightmare beast appears and invades my dreams? What if my passive is leaked?"

"Uh~" Qin Yao didn't know how to answer her for a moment, "I'll explain this to the manager later."

"Of course I have to say that. This passive leak of information cannot be blamed on me."

Xie Zhiqiu added: "Tell him that if this counts, then I won't take this mission."

"At worst, I can just stick with this mission. There's no time limit anyway."

Xie Zhiqiu looked like he was going to give up if you didn't change the terms.

Qin Yao was helpless: "Okay, I'll try my best to get it for you."
