Miss White Wolf's Terra Travel Journal

"I see. As expected of Alina, she can think of these things. Tallulah and I just kept walking forward with our eyes covered."

Miss Elafia didn't know how to answer, so she just kept looking at the other person with a smile.

"So what is Alina going to do with these things?"

"I've thought about it all." Alina opened her eyes wide and raised her slender index finger. "First, bind these manuscripts into books, then copy a few copies and use them as textbooks in the school. After that, organize a more complete version according to the situation and print it into a book. Everyone in the organization should have a copy."

"That's great. Then I'll leave the reprinting to Sister Alina." White Wolf seized the opportunity and thought of a lazy way.

"Well, leave it to me when the time comes. Go do your own thing. After the book is sorted, I'll give it to you for review."

As Alina spoke, she put the papers in order, cut out two covers according to the size of the manuscript, and then took out the needle and thread. Her hands were very dexterous, and she sewed out a thin book in just a few strokes.

"This manuscript is of great significance. I will give it to you after I finish copying it."

"Uh, Alina, I'm a little embarrassed when you say that. This book is pretty much a recollection of Rhodes Island's popular science textbooks. I didn't contribute anything at all."

"But you brought it here." Alina smiled and said, "Without you, the children on the snowfield may never have the chance to come into contact with these contents. Sometimes, the disseminator is as great as the creator!"

"Haha, if that's what you're saying, then I'll accept it without hesitation." Bai Lang scratched his head, feeling happy. "These manuscripts are for you, but don't look down on my poor handwriting."

"How could this happen? I will treasure them as treasures."

"I remember Alina, you wanted me to help you organize other teaching materials?" White Wolf asked happily in a good mood.

"Yes, I was busy that time, so I asked you to teach me a math lesson, and the result was quite good."

"Leave it to me. I'll prepare a math textbook for you before you go to Rhode Island. Let's start now. Bring the one you used before. I wanted to give you some suggestions last time."

Under the light, the two 'infected teachers' seriously discussed and compiled booklets.

Volume 2: Chapter 70: Head of Human Resources Department

The next morning, busy Bob entrusted his friend to White Wolf and rushed to Broken Bone to handle the docking work.

In a spacious hall filled with tables and chairs, the short White Wolf was introducing the big Mud Rock, "Miss Mud Rock, this is the public cafeteria. Everyone usually eats here. Of course, if you don't like it, you are free to cook for yourself."

I have to clarify here that White Wolf is not short, her height of 164cm is at least average, but compared with Mud Rock, she looks like a dwarf. In terms of appearance, Mud Rock is bigger than Big Bob. White Wolf remembers Big Bob saying Mud Rock is more powerful than him. Now it seems that guy is using height to measure strength.

"Just be here with everybody," Mudrock said in her and Big Bob's unique, droning accent.

"Thank you Miss Mudstone for not disliking me. To be honest, the conditions in Beiyuan are indeed a bit poor, but I believe they will definitely improve in the future."

"This place is great. The conditions for us mercenaries are much worse. I'm sure everyone will want to come here."

I don't know if Big Bob said something to Mudstone, but judging from his attitude, the success rate of "inducing", uh, no, it's "attracting" him to join the Integration Movement is not low.

At the next stop, White Wolf took Mudstone to the dormitory area.

"Ms. Mudstone, I still don't know where you live?"

"Bob assigned me over there." Mudstone pointed to a small gray house a few dozen meters to the right.

"He's made very thoughtful arrangements." White Wolf walked over, took a look around, and exclaimed, "There happen to be a few empty rooms next to this. He probably considered it for your team in advance. If you want to take a look, you can go and take a look."

Mudstone carefully checked the empty rooms one by one, then returned to White Wolf and said in a complicated tone: "This is much better than sleeping outdoors, but my team only has a dozen people, so we don't need so many rooms."

"It's better to be prepared!" White Wolf said with a smile, "Shall we go to the central area to take a look?"

"Ok."

The dormitory was originally close to the central area, and the two of them soon reached their destination.

"See that white two-story building?"

"I noticed it yesterday. What is that for?"

"The hospital." Bai Lang said briskly with a hint of barely perceptible pride, "It's my office. I've been training new doctors there for the past month. If you want to find me, just go there. But I might not be here for a while."

"No more?"

"Well, just think of it as a business trip to discuss a cooperation agreement with another company." As soon as he finished speaking, Bai Lang felt that something was wrong. It sounded like the organization was 'Integrated Movement Co., Ltd.' So, is he really a part-time head of the human resources department today?

"Ms. White Wolf is a very good doctor, right?"

"Oh, don't listen to those rumors. The people in the camp are all crazy. I'm just a novice surgeon at best, and they're spreading rumors all over the place."

However, Mudstone had not heard of the rumors about White Wolf, but she believed that since he could receive medical training, his own abilities must be guaranteed.

Seeing that Mudstone didn't say anything, White Wolf thought that Mudstone was moved, so he continued to increase his strength: "We have real medical Originium artists here. No matter how troublesome the injury is, we can solve it. Think about it, this kind of medical configuration is very good."

Miss Mudstone nodded, but still said nothing.

White Wolf couldn't figure out what the other party was thinking, so he simply continued to introduce: "The building halfway up the mountain is a school and a conference room. We met there yesterday. Alina is in charge of the school, and the textbooks are mainly written by her. I also helped to compile a textbook about the infected some time ago. I learned all of this from Rhodes Island. Rhodes Island, you must know that this knowledge is very useful. When the time comes, we will popularize these things among all members."

Mudstone still didn't say anything, just nodded. Because she was wearing a helmet, White Wolf couldn't see her facial expression at all and couldn't help feeling nervous.

"Our logistics are handled by Alina and Big Bob. Miss Mudstone, if your team arrives, don't worry about supplies. The organization doesn't lack them right now. What we lack is new equipment. I plan to solve this problem during this business trip."

Mudstone still didn't speak.

Without anyone telling him, Bai Lang had already discovered the problem himself. Something important must have been missed and it had to be resolved immediately, otherwise the negotiation might collapse.

What exactly is the problem?

Organizational philosophy? No, Tallulah mentioned it yesterday, and she also clearly expressed her interest in the idea of ​​integration; living conditions? Not really, after all I said, the conditions are really not too bad; ah, I see, no salary increase!

Mudstone's team is different from others, they are mercenaries, roughly equivalent to organized bounty hunters, whether it is to maintain weapons or to maintain life, they cannot do without money. I have said so much but ignored the most important part, just like a boss who is crazy about making big promises to employees and forgets to pay wages.

"Ms. Niyan, let's talk about the salary issue next." Bailang said hurriedly. She felt that her identity as the head of the human resources department was confirmed.

"Yeah." Mud Rock finally spoke. She seemed to be embarrassed for her money-grubbing behavior, so she explained, "The equipment of the team members is very expensive to maintain, and some of them need to send money to their families regularly. I don't lack these things myself, but as the captain, I have to consider them."

"I understand, I understand. I am also a bounty hunter. I once had a friend who spent a lot of Longmen coins just to maintain his bow. Miss Mudstone, don't worry about this, but I would like to make it clear that the organization will pay the commission in Originium blocks."

"It makes sense. Most of my previous employers paid with this kind of thing." Mudstone nodded.

In fact, on the Terra continent, Originium has always been positioned as hard currency (similar to gold) due to its special properties, and is widely used in underground exchanges.

"Well, Miss Mudstone, what's your price?" White Wolf was undecided and decided to test the waters first.

"Okay, our team has a plan for this." Miss Mudstone's momentum suddenly rose. "Based on previous missions, the commissions allocated to each person, and taking into account the medical and living conditions here, I roughly calculated a result. Miss White Wolf, how do you think about delivering the equivalent of this number of Longmen coins every month?"

She used both hands and stretched out a total of six fingers, which, considering her large size, was surprisingly cute.

However, the price is a bit high, 60,000 Longmen coins per piece, which is a bit too much for the organization to afford. But that's how negotiation works, ask for a sky-high price and pay a low price, everything can be negotiated.

"Ms. Mudstone, this is a bit too much. You see, the various facilities in our organization, including medical care and food, are all free."

"I know, but the team contains powerful elites. They are familiar with Sarkaz tactics and are proficient in Lethania's spells. They are much stronger than ordinary mercenaries." Mudstone did not give in.

"Well, I'll think about it."

"Ms. White Wolf, let me tell you my bottom line. The minimum is 5,000 Longmen coins. If it weren't for the medical team, no one would accept this price."

"Ah?! Well, Mud Rock, you are right. Five thousand Longmen coins is really too unfair. Ah, no, I think six thousand is too little. We can discuss it in more depth."

Volume 2: Chapter 71: Conspiracy

Mudstone was very confused. She looked at White Wolf for a long time before she was sure that the other party was not joking. It was really unbelievable. How could someone take the initiative to give in in such a situation?

She joined the mercenaries when she was a teenager, and it has been seven or eight years now. Her understanding of this field is by no means a rookie level. All mercenaries fear the most that they will not receive treatment after being injured. After all, they either die on the battlefield or from their injuries. After each mission, medical expenses always account for the largest expense.

Furthermore, the mercenaries had to figure out their own supplies, food and lodging, and they had to spend a lot of time on each mission. If the Reunion Movement was willing to cover all of these, their operations would be much easier.

Birds of a feather flock together. The mercenaries who followed her were different from other mercenary groups. They all liked a comfortable life. They had been wandering around Leithania for a long time and were tired of the life of eating and sleeping in the open air. The conditions of the Integration Movement were absolutely attractive to them. And the price she offered was also quite reasonable. Although it was not much, it was not too little with all kinds of "employee benefits".

This Miss White Wolf probably has no relevant experience. She was called here today to discuss cooperation without any reason. Fortunately, she met Ni Yan, who is a very honest person. Although she doesn't know why the other party suddenly wants to raise the price foolishly, she can't bear to let the other party be criticized by her superior (referring to Tallulah) because of such a thing.

"Ms. White Wolf, six thousand Dragon Gate coins equivalent to Originium crude ore is already very reasonable."

"I think we can raise it a little more, Miss Mudstone, let's round it up, how about 10,000?" White Wolf is very familiar with the price conversion of Originium Ore and Lungmen Coins. About 100 grams of Originium Ore can be refined into 1 gram of pure Originium, and its market price fluctuates around 10,000 Lungmen Coins. The Integration Movement can't afford many Lungmen Coins now, but it got several warehouses of Originium Ore before the April turmoil, not to mention that a mining area was just emptied some time ago.

Therefore, the Integration Movement is now in the standard state of owning a mine at home, and White Wolf has more freedom in making an offer.

"Ten thousand is too much, Miss White Wolf. You don't know much about this business. Six thousand is really a reasonable price."

Bailang was deeply moved when he heard this, and couldn't help but think of the bargaining between him and Frank. Miss Mudstone was so polite, and she couldn't treat an honest man unfairly.

"I used to be a bounty hunter in Columbia, so I know everyone's difficulties. Miss Mudstone, let me tell you the number. Nine thousand Dragon Gate coins, no less."

"Six thousand!"

"Eight thousand and five."

"Six thousand!"

"Eight thousand."

The two argued for a long time, and each made concessions. In the end, the commission was set at 7,000. Bai Lang also secretly added an item in the contract to provide equipment subsidies after each operation.

Mudstone noticed this, but she was too exhausted to correct it.

She was a good-tempered person who never quarreled with anyone, and she never imagined that quarreling could be more tiring than fighting.

Having said that, even though she complained, she was actually very happy in her heart. She had secured so many benefits for the team members today. If those guys knew, they would definitely be overjoyed. However, she decided not to tell them the specific process.

Now the two of them were sitting at the table in the conference room. Mudstone was looking at Bailang with unfocused eyes as he lowered his head to organize documents. Her mind had long since flown back to her own team.

Bai Lang finally finished copying two copies of the cooperation agreement. She pinched her sore fingers and wondered where to get a printing device. She checked and found no typos, so she handed the agreement to Mudstone.

"Ms. Mudstone, take a look. If there is no problem, you can sign it."

"Oh." Mudstone took the agreement, glanced at it, and looked up at White Wolf.

"My handwriting is a little bad, but the agreement is absolutely formal. If you don't understand anything, I will explain it to you."

"No problem." Mudstone went over it briefly, drawing it for only a dozen seconds, and then signed his name generously.

This agreement was drafted by White Wolf, and its content largely borrowed from the terms of the cooperation agreement she signed with Rhodes Island. It mainly stated that Mudstone and his team joined the Reunion Movement as a mercenary organization, and then the responsibilities and obligations of both parties, using the format of "Party A provides...", "Party B promises..."

The two had just signed the agreement when Tallulah pushed the door open and walked in. It seemed that she had already discussed it with the Patriot.

Mud Rock immediately stood up and said, "Ms. Tallulah, I have already signed the cooperation agreement."

Tallulah was stunned for a moment, unable to understand what was going on. She looked past the mudstone and saw the white wolf behind her secretly making a 'yes' gesture with his index and middle fingers. Now she understood everything.

The moment of shock she had felt before seemed to have never happened. She said happily, "Welcome, welcome. It's great that you're willing to come. By the way, have you discussed the commission?"

"Here." Bai Lang handed over the agreement in his hand.

Niyan couldn't help but feel nervous and watched the dragon girl's facial expression carefully. As she expected, the other party frowned. Did she think it was too much?

"Mudstone, are you satisfied with this commission? Do you want a little more? In fact, you can double it. You don't know that Miss White Wolf is famous for her frugality." Tallulah said seriously.

She is famous for her frugality. Bai Lang complained to himself that this was a rich girl who didn't know how expensive food and daily necessities were. If the financial work was handed over to Tallulah, she would definitely squander the family fortune.

This is a serious complaint, not a case of the pot calling the kettle black.

Mudstone naturally didn't even need to say it. She was still confused even after leaving the meeting room for a long time. Was this the wise and brave Tallulah and the resourceful Miss White Wolf that Bob had told her about? How come they were both as pure as little white flowers? However, this was definitely beneficial to her and her team. There was no need to worry too much. Now she could consider calling the team members who were temporarily staying in Winterfell.

In the conference room, Talulah waited for Mudstone to leave and then asked, "White Wolf, tell me your thoughts on the commission."

"I don't have ideas, I'm frugal!"

"You know I didn't mean it like that. I was in a hurry at the time. I apologize."

"Tch, not sincere."

Miss Longnu was troubled for only a moment before she thought of a solution and said excitedly, "I'll rub your back."

"Don't." White Wolf looked at her warily. "Let me be frank. This cooperation is to facilitate poaching Teresis's people in the future! As long as we really establish contact with him, he will definitely send his mercenaries over."

"But the conditions we offer are very ordinary. Will this trick really work?"

"Yes, it's very average, but did you notice the equipment subsidy clause in the contract?"

"Ah, I see, you are actually digging a hole here!"

"How can this be considered a trap? Mercenaries are all about money. It was Tresis who forced them together without following the rules. But when they arrive in Ursus, his words may not work."

"Perhaps Tracys could have thought of that, too."

"Let him think whatever he wants. This is an open conspiracy."

Volume 2: Chapter 72: Ino's Originium Skills

"These are all matters for the future, let's not talk about them for now. Tallulah, what does General Patriot think?" In fact, White Wolf had already roughly guessed the result from Tallulah's expression when she returned to the office.

As expected, the Dragon Girl nodded: "The general agrees with this idea, but his attitude towards the Sarkaz mercenaries is ambiguous. He neither supports nor opposes it."

"There's nothing we can do about it. Big Daddy emphasizes discipline, but mercenaries are always lax. But as long as he doesn't object, it should be his tacit consent. I need to communicate more with Miss Mudstone about the discipline of the mercenaries."
