“As for the amount of money you mentioned, give me a specific number,”Colonel Kono said.
“Just one million,”Jiang Fei said casually. It was not a lot, but it was enough for his daily expenses.
“So Little? Are you sure?”Kono was stunned. He had thought that Jiang Fei would ask for too much.
“It’s good that you have enough. Why do you need so much money?”Jiang Fei shrugged and said.
“You really don’t look like someone who came from the slums,”Colonel Kono said as he looked at Jiang Fei.
“Oh? People who came from the slums should be very greedy?”Jiang Fei asked.
“In my knowledge, yes!”Colonel Kono said without hiding it.
“Perhaps!”Jiang Fei smiled.
After the poor became rich, there would indeed be a way for them to reach where they were today. They would eat as much as they could and buy as much as they could if they could not afford it. When they encountered a situation where they were poor before, they would try their best to avoid being poor again, they would try their best to earn money.
This was the same in Jiang Fei’s three-dimensional universe. This was especially true for those high-ranking officials who came from humble backgrounds. There were too few people who were not corrupt. The more such people were, the more serious the corruption was, even if they were able to persevere in the beginning, when their poor relatives came knocking on their door, they would open their mouths and shut up about the tuition fees that I had lent you back then. I had lent you the money to pay for your travel expenses. Without me, would you have gotten to where you are today? Now that you have become rich, you are ungrateful,
no matter how strong-willed a person was, he was still a human. He would always face the demands of such relatives. Sooner or later, he would have to relent. However, once the opening was opened, it would be difficult to close it again. As time passed, the opening would become bigger and bigger, in the end, he would dare to do anything.
Jiang Fei had seen this kind of thing too many times. Of course, not all of the high-ranking officials in the poor families were not good people. There were people who could persevere in their hearts, but there were too few of them.
Therefore, he could understand why Colonel Kono was looking at Jiang Fei like that today.
“If you are sure, then it’s settled!”Colonel Kono looked at Jiang Fei for a long time. After making sure that Jiang Fei did not have any plans that he should pay attention to, he said so.
“Alright!”Jiang Fei continued to eat at a leisurely pace. It was as if the breakfast was more attractive than the money.
“You’re really different from normal people,”Colonel Kono said.
“Hehe, who isn’t? The exact same people are always by the side of the sheriff,”Jiang Fei laughed. The exact same people that he mentioned were naturally the clones.
Although the clones looked different, their personalities and thinking patterns were all carved from the same mold. Therefore, they were exactly the same.
“Haha, you’re quite humorous.”Kono laughed out loud.
Soon, breakfast was over. Jiang Fei and Colonel Kono had also come to an agreement.
“Kono, take Mr. Ralph to choose a house,”Colonel Kono said to Kono who was beside him. After agreeing on the terms, Jiang Fei’s identity as a soldier came into contact with her. Therefore, he naturally changed from a major.., to a mister.
As Jiang Fei had been temporarily drafted into the army under special conditions, and at that time, Kono and the others did not expect him to survive, Jiang Fei’s identity was not military. Therefore, he had left the army, it was only a matter of Colonel Chinook’s words.
“Yes, Sir!”Chinook saluted to Kono.
“Mr. Ralph, your money will be transferred to your account later. When the time comes, you just have to look into it. As for work, you can go to work tomorrow,”Colonel Kono said to Jiang Fei.
“Thank you!”Jiang Fei nodded.
“Mr. Ralph, let’s go.”Chinook also changed the way he addressed Jiang Fei.
“Alright!”Jiang Fei followed Chinook out of the canteen. Then, Chinook drove Jiang Fei into Crystal Street in the Central City.
“Have you calculated the number of houses here?”Chinook brought Jiang Fei to a temporary office. There were some military police officers who were counting the losses caused by the war, although the security officers’troops had not been completely wiped out, they had been completely driven out of the city. Therefore, peace was restored in the city once again. The staff members also began to reorganize after the war.
“The statistics are out. A total of twelve houses have lost their owners. They are now owned by the public,”said a military police officer who was in charge of the statistics.
“Do you have a map?”Chinook asked. He was Colonel Kono’s trusted aide. Therefore, the military police officers naturally gave him face.
“Yes!”A military police officer took out a map of the neighborhood. There were more than ten houses marked on it.
“Mr. Ralph, please choose one,”Chinook said to Jiang Fei.
“This one!”Jiang Fei chose the house closest to Natasha’s house. It was only two small streets away from Natasha’s house. It would take less than two minutes to walk there.
“Okay! This house is now under Mr. Ralph’s ownership.”Chinook nodded at the military police officer. The military police officer immediately went through the procedures for Jiang Fei.
The procedure was very simple. It was just a simple scan of the identity code on Jiang Fei’s wrist. In the gamma space, without this identity code, it was practically impossible to move an inch, this included the bank account number that Colonel Kono had said he wanted to transfer money to Jiang Fei. In fact, it was also linked to this identity code. With this identity code, Jiang Fei could withdraw the money.
“Thank Colonel Kono for me,”Jiang Fei said to Chinook with a smile.
“I will pass the message to you,”Chinook nodded.
“Then, is there nothing for me to do now?”Jiang Fei asked.
“If you want to go home now, of course, there is no problem. However, because the house needs to be repaired, I personally suggest that you stay in a hotel for a period of time. Colonel Kono said that during the time you stay in the hotel, all the expenses, including food and accommodation, will be borne by him,”Chinook said.
“How long will it take to repair this place?”Jiang Fei asked.
“…”Chinook did not say anything. Instead, he looked at the military police officer who was in charge of the statistics.
“About two months. If you are in a hurry, we can arrange a fast passage for you. The repair will be completed in three days,”the military police officer replied.
“Three days then,”Chinook said before Jiang Fei could say anything.
“Yes, Sir!”The military police officer nodded.
“Mr. Ralph, if that’s the case, please go to the hotel for three days. I can help you find a good hotel near the Life Building,”Chinook said.
“Thank you!”Jiang Fei did not refuse and followed Chinook to the Life Building. This was definitely the core area of the gamma space. Every inch of land was worth gold. The hotel here was not cheap, however, all the expenses were borne by keno. Naturally, Jiang Fei did not stand on ceremony.
