Starting from the Planetary Governor

Chapter 1167: 28 cards

The speaker, none other than the person Li Ang came to see at the Black Mountain Goat Farm today: Pan Dun.

Pan Dun is quite a famous intermediary at the Black Mountain Goat Farm.

Intermediaries are people who receive various tasks or commissions through various channels and then distribute these tasks to various mercenaries to complete, earning a commission in the process, similar to an agent. However, many intermediaries are not satisfied with just this; they cultivate their own teams to directly execute tasks. This way, they can earn more, and as the entire team cooperates more closely and develops more synergy, their combat effectiveness becomes stronger, and the success rate of completing tasks naturally becomes higher.

Pan Dun is precisely such a high-level intermediary. He has very strong connections and can always find high-paying commissions. Coupled with maintaining a core team himself, his influence in the entire Black Mountain Goat Farm can be considered significant.

Of course, he still needs to maintain a friendly relationship with Li Ang.

This is mainly because he and his team are one of the maintainers of the Black Net. To use Li Ang’s spells via the Black Net, payment is required. This payment is collected by Pan Dun from the various mercenaries using the Black Net and naturally will be paid to Li Ang by him.

The reason Li Ang came to him this time was, of course, to collect the money.

He needed money to buy materials to upgrade the Night Falcon and his spell windbreaker, and, coincidentally, the spell authorization fees, which are settled every three months, were due, hence his trip to the Black Mountain Goat Farm to collect.

As for Pan Dun’s mention of ’good brothers’, that was purely nonsense. Li Ang didn’t feel he had much familiarity with Pan Dun.

…

“Oh, my good brother, I’ve finally been waiting for you. But you are really bold, daring to swagger over here given the current situation?”

Li Ang feigned an embrace with Pan Dun and then quickly stepped back: “I don’t see any difficulties with the current situation.”

“You must be truly skilled, Master, to have such courage. If it were me, I would’ve been too scared to show up.”

“I’ve been secluding myself for a while and haven’t been paying attention or bothering to check. Just tell me directly… ”

“What’s my current bounty?”

Pan Dun held up three fingers.

“Three million?” Li Ang was a bit disappointed, “That’s too little, isn’t it? It’s just doubled from my original bounty, and at least two other people at the Black Mountain Goat Farm have higher bounties than me.”

“You’re wrong, it’s thirty million.”

Li Ang fell silent.

After a while, he finally opened his mouth with difficulty: “Has there ever been a bounty higher than this in the history of Era City?”

“No,” Pan Dun said with a grin, “Before you, the highest bounty was only twelve million, and that was accumulated from multiple bounties. Unlike you, the Divine Bird Group’s bounty for capturing you alive is thirty million. To be honest, I even suspect you kidnapped the big boss of the Divine Bird Group, Wang Shang’s son, and not just one — last year his son was kidnapped, and the ransom was only fifteen million. And Wang Shang didn’t even pay!”

“Alright, cut the nonsense,” Li Ang interrupted, “You know why I’m here today. Just settle the payment for me.”

“Master, you know my reputation. In the past three-month period, the earnings that should be allocated to you for using your spells through the Black Net is two hundred and forty-eight thousand.”

“Good, I thought you had your eye on my thirty million bounty too. Since everything is in order, let’s follow the usual practice and exchange it for twenty-four high-level Spirit Stones. I’ll take them, and the remaining eight thousand will cover the cost of exchanging the Spirit Stones for me.”

“There’s no problem exchanging for Spirit Stones. However, I think there’s a better way to use this money.”

“Oh? What suggestion do you have?”

“Of course, like hiring my subordinates to escort you safely out of the Black Mountain Goat Farm,” Pan Dun grinned. “What do you think?”

Seeing Li Ang remain silent, Pan Dun persuaded earnestly: “Don’t be misled by the fact that you haven’t encountered any problems on your way to me after entering the Black Mountain Goat Farm. That’s because everyone knows you’re not easy to deal with, and they’re indeed too scared to act hastily. But so much time has passed, and the thirty million offer is so tempting, surely many have already linked up, just waiting for you to step out and catch you to sell you to the Divine Bird Group for a good price.”

“With just them?” Li Ang sneered.

“True, the skills in our mercenary line do vary. I’m aware of your capabilities and know you needn’t worry about most people. However, you also know there are skilled ones among mercenaries—yourself included, right? And when faced with many opponents, what will you do?

“Can you really protect me then?”

“I certainly can. In this area, I have some influence. Besides, my team is quite capable. If any insist on opposing you, we’ll fight! Let them experience the prowess of my elite team!”

Saying so, Pan Dun patted Li Ang’s shoulder, winking: “As long as you’re in Era City, I’ll ensure the mercenaries at the Black Mountain Goat Farm won’t be a problem for you. I don’t ask for much, just that while I’m protecting you, you don’t charge me for the spell authorization fees. How about it? Am I a good brother or what!”
