Chapter 344: A Lion’s Big Demand

In the state of Texas, in the capital city of Austin, at eleven o’clock in the evening local time, Chu Jiang’s plane landed smoothly.

The people from BRPD naturally arrived early to pick him up. As soon as Chu Jiang got off the plane, a group of men in suits walked over through a dedicated channel to greet him.

The other passengers on the flight, who didn’t know the truth, thought this Asian-looking man might be a big shot in some Chinese gang.

In the crowd waiting at the airport, the first person is a blond Caucasian man. It’s Bruce himself who came to pick up.

He smiled and extended his hand, "Long time no see, my friend. Even on this side of America, we occasionally hear about your achievements."

Chu Jiang shook his hand and said, "Take me directly to the workplace. I need all the detailed information about the ‘false god incident.’"

Unexpectedly, Bruce looked troubled. "Well, how about I take you to the best local hotel first? Tomorrow morning, we can go to the Texas branch and discuss the action plan in detail."

Chu Jiang was puzzled, "Why? Give me a reason."

"Um…" Bruce rubbed his hands, unable to say that there are people within BRPD who are resentful towards Chu Jiang and believe that seeking outside help is an insult to the great spirit of American freedom and independence.

Arrogance is deeply ingrained in the bloodline of the Anglo-Saxon people, especially towards other races.

Although Bruce’s Chinese is good and he is polite to Chu Jiang, he obviously cannot fully convince his fellow countrymen.

Even among the higher ranks, there are conflicting opinions about bringing in the Nine Provinces Ghost Master to deal with this matter. Not everyone agrees.

So Bruce’s idea is that, before 9 o’clock tomorrow, the management team will have an overnight discussion and reach an agreement.

Then the leaders will deal with some troublemakers within the organization, and must let Chu Jiang go to El Paso City first.

This way, whether Chu Jiang successfully seals the false god, returns empty-handed, or even dies in there, it won’t be a bad thing for the United States and BRPD.

Seeing the other party hesitate, Chu Jiang had a guess and his face turned cold, "You invited me here, is this the attitude?"

Bruce immediately said, "It’s like this, we have encountered some minor issues within BRPD."

"Please don’t worry, it’s not about you. Let’s get in the car first. Before we start working, you can propose some conditions, and we will also state our offer."

Seeing this, Chu Jiang didn’t say anything anymore, he just left the airport with the other group expressionlessly.

……

After arriving at the presidential suite of a five-star hotel, Bruce and Chu Jiang sat opposite each other and started discussing the compensation for hiring outside assistance this time.

Chu Jiang didn’t rush to make demands, he just wanted to see what the other person could offer.

"First, thank you for making this trip across countries. Without saying much, one billion US dollars is just a small token of appreciation."

"In addition, we can also provide you with a batch of sealing props. Twenty disposable seals that we have independently developed, as well as ten seals of different levels."

"If you need some special ghosts, we also have some sealed reserve resources here. You can choose a few from the list that interest you."

"Or, if you are already being overwhelmed physically or mentally by malevolent spirits, we can also provide you with corresponding treatment options."

When Bruce mentioned this, he was ready for Chu Jiang to inquire about the proportions of each level among these ten seals.

You see, the higher the level of the seal, the greater the difference in value. This deliberately leaves room for negotiation.

But what surprised Bruce was that Chu Jiang only raised two fingers. "I’m not interested in those ordinary goods. I only have two conditions."

"First, I want one hundred properly sealed ghosts."

"Secondly, I want a level zero seal."

Bruce’s face changed dramatically, and he said with an unpleasant expression, "Mr. Chu, please don’t joke like this."

This is simply outrageous! One hundred sealed ghosts? What does that even mean? Is he planning to deplete half of BRPD’s supernatural resource reserve, which required the deaths of countless people to establish?

Not to mention a level zero seal, this kind of thing is a strategic resource. There aren’t many in the world, so how could it be given out casually as a reward?

Chu Jiang, of course, demanded a sky-high price, with the condition that he would only pay after the deal was completed.

Moreover, he noticed that the BRPD members didn’t seem to appreciate him. He had already come to the United States with the determination to get involved in the S-class event. They were still hesitant, so it was only right to take advantage of them.

"Captain Chu, please reconsider these two conditions. We absolutely cannot accept them. It’s too outrageous. Even if I submit it, there’s no way it will be approved." Bruce argued logically.

But Chu Jiang wasn’t so easy to deal with. He just stood up and casually said, "Well, forget it then, I’ll leave."

"No, no, no, wait." Now it was Bruce’s turn to be anxious. He also stood up and said, "We are discussing this. We can take our time."

"And with you proposing such a high price, are you one hundred percent confident that you can get rid of the false god? Would it not be necessary for us to pay such a large price if you could just go to Terrell Church and check the situation?"

Chu Jiang nodded. "These two conditions are indeed the price to seal the false god. If I can’t fulfill them in the end, you only need to fulfill one of them."

Hearing Chu Jiang loosen his grip, Bruce breathed a sigh of relief and continued to reason, "We think it still depends on your specific exploration results, Captain Chu."

"If you can rescue the majority of the residents of El Paso City and find the source of the anomaly, and if you can continue to contain the influence of the false god within the church, that would already be a significant contribution."

"But if you just walk around the city and only allow us to provide a hundred ghosts, that is something we find difficult to do."

"And at that time, our special forces will also go in together to help Captain Chu deal with this matter. It’s not like we’re letting you face the false god alone, so it’s also something to consider, right?"

After listening to Bruce talk so much, Chu Jiang finally said seriously, "If I can really completely eliminate the false god, can you fulfill one of these two conditions?"

"Um…" Bruce hesitated, "I need to make a phone call first and then I can give you an answer."

"Okay, go ahead and ask." Chu Jiang clearly wanted a result right now.
